 4     "Section 1.  Section 422.45, subsections 4 and 6,
 5   Code 1999, are amended to read as follows:
 6     4.  The gross receipts from sales of vehicles

11   However, this exemption does not apply to

17   subject to registration under section 328.20,
18   purchased for use in this state, at the rate of five
19   percent of the purchase price of the property.  An
20   excise tax is imposed on the use of leased vehicles at
21   the rate of five percent of the amount otherwise
22   subject to tax as calculated pursuant to section
23   423.7A.  The excise tax is imposed upon every person
24   using the property within this state until the tax has
25   been paid directly to the county treasurer or the

27   to the department.  An excise tax is imposed on the
28   use in this state of services enumerated in section
29   422.43 at the rate of five percent.  This tax is
30   applicable where services are rendered, furnished, or
31   performed in this state or where the product or result
32   of the service is used in this state.  This tax is
33   imposed on every person using the services or the
34   product of the services in this state until the user
35   has paid the tax either to an Iowa use tax permit
36   holder or to the department.
37     Sec. 3.  Section 423.4, subsection 4, Code 1999, is
38   amended to read as follows:

39     4.  Tangible personal property, the gross receipts

43   relates to the sale of vehicles subject to
44   registration or subject only to the issuance of a
45   certificate of title and as it relates to aircraft
46   subject to registration under section 328.20.
47     Sec. 4. Section 423.4, Code 1999, is amended by
48   adding the following new subsections:
49     NEW SUBSECTION.  17.  Aircraft for use in a

11   scheduled interstate federal aviation administration
12   certified air carrier operation.
13     NEW SUBSECTION.  19.  Tangible personal property

20   parts.  For the purposes of this exemption, "aircraft"
21   means aircraft used in nonscheduled interstate federal
22   aviation administration certified air carrier

31   buyer is found.
32     c.  The renter or lessee is aware that the dealer

37   conditions in paragraphs "a", "b", and "c" are not

38   continuously met, the dealer claiming the exemption
39   under this subsection is liable for the tax that would
40   have been due except for this subsection.  The tax
41   shall be computed upon the original purchase price."
42     2.  Title page, line 1, by striking the words "of
43   certain sales".
