Maximum amount of extended benefit payable during year.
1. The total extended benefit amount payable to any eligible person for his applicable benefit year is the lesser of the following amounts:
(a) Fifty percent of the basic benefits which were payable to him in his benefit year. If the amount computed is not a multiple of $1, it must be computed to the next lower multiple of $1.
(b) Thirteen times his average weekly benefit amount which was payable to him under this chapter for a week of total unemployment in the applicable benefit year. If the amount computed is not a multiple of $1, it must be computed to the next lower multiple of $1.
2. If the benefit year of any person ends within an extended benefit period, the remaining balance of extended benefits that he would, but for this subsection, be entitled to receive in that period, with respect to weeks of unemployment beginning after the end of the benefit year, must be reduced by the product of the number of weeks for which he received any amounts as trade readjustment allowances pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 2291 within that benefit year, multiplied by his weekly benefit amount of extended benefits, but the balance must not be reduced below zero.
