Provides that in addition to the interest payments, the Court shall direct the Comptroller to add a "catch-up" payment to the claims of eligible claimants. Provides that for the 2 years immediately following the effective date of the amendatory Act, the Court of Claims shall direct the Comptroller to pay a "Modified-Eligibility Line of Duty Benefit" to eligible late claimants who file a claim for the benefit.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that the Court of Claims rather than the Comptroller shall calculate the interest payment penalty.
