(3) 4/ who has been excluded from the United States pursuant to section 235(c) because the alien was excludable under section 212(a)(3)(B) or who has been removed from the United States pursuant to the provisions of title V, and who thereafter, without the permission of the Attorney General, enters the United States, or attempts to do so, shall be fined under title 18, United States Code, and imprisoned for a period of 10 years, which sentence shall not run concurrently with any other sentence; or
(4) 5/ who was removed from the United States pursuant to section 241(a)(4)(B) who thereafter, without the permission of the Attorney General, enters, attempts to enter, or is at any time found in, the United States (unless the Attorney General has expressly consented to such alien's reentry) shall be fined under title 18, United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 10 years, or both.

FN 1 Paragraph (1) is shown as rewritten by § 324 of IIRIRA . See next footnote for effective date and further explanation.
FN 2 Paragraph (1) was amended first by § 324 then a secondary amendment was made to the amended text by § 308(d)(4)(J) of IIRIRA (as shown here). The amendment by section 308(d)(40(J) notes that the amendment by § 324 must occur first. Since the amendments have different effective dates they must both be given effect. Section 324's amendments to subsection (a) apply to "departures that occurred before, on, or after the date of enactment of [IIRIRA], but only with respect to entries (and attempted entries) occurring on or after such date." IIRIRA, § 324(c) . Section 308's amendments are effective on April 1, 1997 at which time the amendment by section 324 is overwritten. Therefore, during the transition period, from September 30, 1996 to April 1, 1997, the first paragraph (1) shown above is in effect. On April 1, 1997 and thereafter the second paragraph (1) shown above will be in effect.
FN 3 Amended by § 308(d)(4)(J) of IIRIRA .
FN 4 Paragraph (3) was added by § 411 of AEDPA , effective on the date of enactment of AEDPA.
FN 5 Paragraph (4) was added by § 305(b)(3) of IIRIRA .
FN 6 Section 276(c) was added by § 438 of AEDPA , effective on the date of enactment of AEDPA.
FN 7 Section 276(d) was added by § 441 of AEDPA and "shall apply to criminal proceedings initiated after the date of enactment of [the AEDPA]."
