"(A) GENERAL RULE.—

"(i) CONTRIBUTION RATE GENERALLY.—Every employer
shall pay a contribution, with respect to having
employees in his service, equal to the percentage deter-
mined under subparagraph (B), (C), or (D), whichever is
applicable, of so much of the compensation paid in any
calendar month by such employer to any employee as is
not in excess of the monthly compensation base for that
month as computed under section l(i).

"(ii) MULTIPLE EMPLOYER LIMITATION.— If compensa-
tion is paid to an employee by more than one employer
in any calendar month—

"(I) the contributions required by this subsection
shall not apply to any amount of the aggregate
compensation paid to such employee by all such
employers in such calendar month which is in
excess of such monthly compensation base; and
"(II) each employer (other than a subordinate
unit of a national-railway-labor-organization
employer) shall be liable for that portion of the
contribution with respect to such compensation
paid by all such employers which the compensation
paid by him to such employee bears to the total
compensation paid in such month by all such em-
ployers to such employee.

In the event that the compensation paid by such
employers to the employee in such month is less than
such monthly compensation base, each subordinate
unit of a national-railway-labor-organization employer
shall be liable for such portion of any additional con-
tribution as the compensation paid by such employer to
such employee in such month bears to the total com-
pensation paid by all such employers to such employee
in such month.
