5. a. In addition to any grant of tax credits determined pursuant to section 7 of P.L.2004, c.65 (C.34:1B-115.3), a bonus award equivalent to 50\% of the amount of the original grant of tax credits shall be made to any business that relocates more than 2,000 full-time employees covered by the project agreement from one or more locations outside of a designated urban center into a designated urban center, provided that all other applicable requirements of P.L.1996, c.25 (C.34:1B-112 et seq.) are satisfied; and provided further that no grant of tax credits shall be awarded pursuant to this section for any job that is moved from its current location in an urban enterprise zone designated pursuant to the "New Jersey Urban Enterprise Zones Act," P.L.1983, c.303 (C.52:27H-60 et seq.) to a location that is not within an urban enterprise zone; however, that if the move from the urban enterprise zone is to a facility already owned or leased by the same business and that business already employs at least the same number of persons as those being relocated from the urban enterprise zone a grant of tax credits may still be awarded pursuant to this section.

b. In addition to any grant of tax credits determined pursuant to section 7 of P.L.2004, c.65 (C.34:1B-115.3), and in addition to any bonus award pursuant to subsection a. of this section, a bonus award equivalent to 50\% of the amount of the grant of tax credits pursuant to section 7 of P.L.2004, c.65 (C.34:1B-115.3) shall be made to any business that makes a capital investment in an amount that is at least twice that of the total value of the grant of tax credits granted pursuant to section 7 of P.L.2004, c.65 (C.34:1B-115.3) and the grant of tax credits pursuant to this subsection. A bonus award made pursuant to this subsection may be limited, so that when added to the tax credits granted pursuant to section 7 of P.L.2004, c.65 (C.34:1B-115.3), the total amount shall not exceed 50\% of the amount of the capital investment in this State.
