(A) A tax credit certificate shall be issued to the applicant as the certificate owner and shall not be transferable. If the certificate owner is a pass through entity, such as a partnership, S-corporation, limited liability company (LLC), or other such pass through entity, the pass through entity shall provide the director a list of partners or members, including the correct legal name, taxpayer identification number, and proportion of ownership interest in the entity for allocation of the tax credit.
