A person may be prosecuted for enterprise corruption:

1. in any county in which the principal place of business, if any, of
the enterprise was located at the time of the offense, and, if the
enterprise had a principal place or business located in more than one
county, then in any such county in which any conduct occurred
constituting or requisite to the completion of the offense of enterprise
corruption; or

2. in any county in which any act included in the pattern of criminal
activity could have been prosecuted pursuant to article twenty of the
criminal procedure law; provided, however, that such person may not be
prosecuted for enterprise corruption in such county based on this
subdivision if the jurisdiction of such county is based solely on
section 20.60 of the criminal procedure law; or

3. in any county in which he:

(a) conducts or participates in the affairs of the enterprise in
violation of subdivision one of section 460.20 of this article,

(b) acquires or maintains an interest in or control of the enterprise
in violation of subdivision one of section 460.20 of this article,

(c) invests proceeds in an enterprise in violation of subdivision one
of section 460.20 of this article; or

4. in any county in which the conduct of the actor had or was likely
to have a particular effect upon such county or a political subdivision
or part thereof, and was performed with intent that it would, or with
knowledge that it was likely to, have such particular effect therein.
