For purposes of this title, the term “private activity bond” means any bond issued as part of an issue—
which meets—
the private business use test of paragraph (1) of subsection (b), and
the private security or payment test of paragraph (2) of subsection (b), or
which meets the private loan financing test of subsection (c).
Private business tests
Private business use test
Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, an issue meets the test of this paragraph if more than 10 percent of the proceeds of the issue are to be used for any private business use.
Private security or payment test
Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, an issue meets the test of this paragraph if the payment of the principal of, or the interest on, more than 10 percent of the proceeds of such issue is (under the terms of such issue or any underlying arrangement) directly or indirectly—
secured by any interest in—
property used or to be used for a private business use, or
payments in respect of such property, or
to be derived from payments (whether or not to the issuer) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for a private business use.
5 percent test for private business use not related or disproportionate to government use financed by the issue
In general
An issue shall be treated as meeting the tests of paragraphs (1) and (2) if such tests would be met if such paragraphs were applied—
by substituting “5 percent” for “10 percent” each place it appears, and
by taking into account only—
the proceeds of the issue which are to be used for any private business use which is not related to any government use of such proceeds,
the disproportionate related business use proceeds of the issue, and
payments, property, and borrowed money with respect to any use of proceeds described in subclause (I) or (II).
Disproportionate related business use proceeds
For purposes of subparagraph (A), the disproportionate related business use proceeds of an issue is an amount equal to the aggregate of the excesses (determined under the following sentence) for each private business use of the proceeds of an issue which is related to a government use of such proceeds. The excess determined under this sentence is the excess of—
the proceeds of the issue which are to be used for the private business use, over
the proceeds of the issue which are to be used for the government use to which such private business use relates.
Lower limitation for certain output facilities
An issue 5 percent or more of the proceeds of which are to be used with respect to any output facility (other than a facility for the furnishing of water) shall be treated as meeting the tests of paragraphs (1) and (2) if the nonqualified amount with respect to such issue exceeds the excess of—
$15,000,000, over
the aggregate nonqualified amounts with respect to all prior tax-exempt issues 5 percent or more of the proceeds of which are or will be used with respect to such facility (or any other facility which is part of the same project).
There shall not be taken into account under subparagraph (B) any bond which is not outstanding at the time of the later issue or which is to be redeemed (other than in an advance refunding) from the net proceeds of the later issue.
Coordination with volume cap where nonqualified amount exceeds $15,000,000
If the nonqualified amount with respect to an issue—
exceeds $15,000,000, but
does not exceed the amount which would cause a bond which is part of such issue to be treated as a private activity bond without regard to this paragraph,
such bond shall nonetheless be treated as a private activity bond unless the issuer allocates a portion of its volume cap under section 146 to such issue in an amount equal to the excess of such nonqualified amount over $15,000,000.
Private business use defined
In general
For purposes of this subsection, the term “private business use” means use (directly or indirectly) in a trade or business carried on by any person other than a governmental unit. For purposes of the preceding sentence, use as a member of the general public shall not be taken into account.

Private loan financing test
In general
An issue meets the test of this subsection if the amount of the proceeds of the issue which are to be used (directly or indirectly) to make or finance loans (other than loans described in paragraph (2)) to persons other than governmental units exceeds the lesser of—
5 percent of such proceeds, or
