each employer. Nothing in this article shall be construed to grant to any employer
or to individuals performing services for him prior claims or rights to the amounts
paid by the employer into the fund.

Except as required by paragraph [(1)] (I) of this subsection, benefits paid shall
be charged against employer experience-rating records as hereafter specified.

If the claimant earned 75 percent or more of his base period wages from the
principal base period employer, all regular benefits and one half of any extended
benefits paid to such individual shall be charged against the experience-rating
record of his principal base period employer (as defined in paragraph [(19)] (9) of
this subsection). If the claimant earned less than 75 percent of his base period
wages from the principal base period employer, all regular benefits and one half of
any extended benefits paid to such individuals shall be charged on a pro rata basis
to all base period employers. The percentage of the charge to each base period
employer shall be in the same proportion as the amount of wages paid to the
claimant by each such employer is to the total amount of wages received by the
claimant during the base period, and shall be computed as a whole number without
decimals.
