    (d) Allocations.--
            (1) Formula.--
                    (A) In general.--Subject to subparagraphs (B) and 
                (C), the amount of an allocation to a participating 
                State under the Program shall be calculated as follows:
                            (i) With respect to an allocation made from 
                        the amount appropriated under section 8(a)(1), 
                        the allocation shall be calculated as follows:
                                    (I) Divide the total population of 
                                the State by the total population of 
                                the United States.
                                    (II) Multiply the total amount 
                                appropriated under section 8(a)(1) by 
                                the quotient obtained under subclause 
                                (I) with respect to the State.
                            (ii) With respect to an allocation made 
                        from any amounts appropriated to carry out the 
                        Program under the authorization provided under 
                        section 8(b), the allocation shall be 
                        calculated as follows:
                                    (I) Divide the total population of 
                                the State by the total population of 
                                the United States.
                                    (II) Multiply the quotient obtained 
                                under subclause (I) with respect to the 
                                State by the total amount made 
                                available to carry out the Program for 
                                the fiscal year in which the allocation 
                                is made.

                activity.--
                            (i) Purpose.--The purpose of this 
                        subparagraph is to, for the purposes of the

                        to certain States, exclude areas with high 
                        levels of venture capital activity from the
