     1    Section 1. Subdivision 12 of section 84.09 of the mental hygiene  law,

     3  follows:
     4    12. The comptroller shall promulgate rules or regulations  to  prevent
     5  contributions  on  behalf  of  a  designated beneficiary in excess of an
     6  amount that would cause the aggregate account balance for  all  accounts
     7  for  a  designated  beneficiary  to exceed a maximum account balance, as
     8  established from time to time by the comptroller.   Such maximum  amount
     9  shall reflect reasonable expenditures and shall be determined in accord-
    10  ance with any applicable state or federal law, rule, or regulation. Such
    11  maximum  amount  shall  not  exceed  [one  hundred thousand dollars] the
    12  federally authorized level of contribution established for the New  York
    13  college  choice  tuition  savings program pursuant to subdivision ten of
    14  section six hundred ninety-five-e of the education law unless  otherwise
