(6)  Beginning January 1, 1996, except for this paragraph and 
paragraph (7) of this section, the provisions of this section shall 
be suspended until the Unemployment Trust Fund reaches a High Cost 
Multiple of one and one -fourth (1 1/4).  The Oklahoma Employment 
Security Commission shall determine the High Cost Multiple at the 
end of each calendar year and shall include the result of its 
computation in a regularly published periodical together with other

Multiple” shall be a figure computed as follows: 
(a) first, net fund reserves in the Unemployment 
Compensation Fund as of the date of each computation 
required by this section shall be divided by total 
wages earned in insured employment for the twelve (12) 
months preceding the date of the quarterly High Cost 
Multiple computation, 
(b) second, the result of the co mputation from 
subparagraph (a) of this paragraph shall be divided by 
a figure which is a quotient derived from the 
computation of the High -Cost Rate contained in 
subparagraph (c) of this paragraph, and 
(c) third, the highest ratio of total state benefit 
payments experienced previously in any twelve (12) 
consecutive months to total wages earned in insured 
employment for the same period shall be the High -Cost 
Rate. 
The result of all computations contained in subparagraphs (a) 
through (c) of this paragraph, p erformed in the sequence as 
specified in this section, shall be known as the High Cost 
Multiple;. 
(7)  Prior to the beginning of each calendar year, the 
Commission shall prepare an estimate of the financial condition of

any time during the year, will fall below the High Cost Multiple as 
defined in paragraph (6) of this section, then the Commission shall 
reinstate the suspended provisions of this section. 
SECTION 4.     AMENDATORY     40 O.S. 2021, Section 3 -114, is
