NOTICE TO RETAILERS:
Retailers making exempt sales covered by this certificate must appropriately mark or stamp all invoices
to indicate they are exempt sales. For items a through d and f above, the words "Maine Sales Tax Exempt" will satisfy this
requirement. For item e above, the words "Fuel/electricity used at a manufacturing facility" will satisfy this requirement.
The certificate may also be used for occasional exempt purchases rather than blanket use by filling out as far as applicable, striking
out the word "Blanket" and listing on the reverse side the date of order and the quantity and description of the tangible personal
property ordered; or by incorporating the purchase order by reference to this certificate, as by listing date and order number.
