on the vehicle at all times when alcoholic beverages are being trans-
ported. The fee for such identification shall be two dollars for each
vehicle. Provided, however, whenever the Comptroller finds as a
fact that a jurisdiction outside of the State of Maryland exacts a
tax, assessment, impost, or other charge or restriction, in connection
with the solicitation, sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages
consigned to such jurisdiction from a Maryland license or permit
holder, that is in excess of such tax, assessment, impost, or other
charge or restriction exacted of persons within such jurisdiction,
in connection with the solicitation, sale and distribution of alcoholic
beverages consigned to such jurisdiction from a license or permit
holder other than a Maryland license or permit holder and that such
greater tax, assessment, impost, or other charge or restriction in
fact discriminates against a Maryland license or permit holder, then
the Comptroller shall impose on the seller a similar or like tax,
assessment, impost or other charge or restriction for the privilege
of soliciting sales of alcoholic beverages and/or consigning alcoholic
beverages from such jurisdiction to persons in the State of Maryland.
Provided, however, the retaliatory provisions of this section affect-
ing distillers shall not apply to any person who has a distillery plant
in any other state or states, if such person has a distillery plant in
this State.

(e) Bulk [sale] transfer permit.—A person whose license has ex-
pired or otherwise has been discontinued may, within sixty days subse-
quent to the last day the license was effective, apply to the Comptrol-
ler for a permit to authorize [sale] transfer with or without con-
sideration whether by sale, gift, inheritance, assignment or other-
wise of the stock of alcoholic beverages on hand as of such day. Such
a permit shall authorize the [sale] transfer only to a license holder,
which shall be consummated within the period covered by such
permit.

(a) Generally.—Any holder of a license under the provisions of
this article, including a receiver or trustee for the benefit of creditors,
may be permitted to transfer his place of business to some other
location and/or sell or assign said license and transfer his stock in
trade to another person, provided that application for such transfer
and/or sale shall be made, and that a bulk [sales] transfer permit is
obtained where the stock of alcoholic beverages is to be [sold] trans-
ferred whether by sale, gift, inheritance, assignment or otherwise,
and irrespective of whether or not consideration is paid, and the new
location and/or assignee shall be approved as in the case of an
original application for such license. Such transfer and/or assign-
ment when made shall be endorsed upon the license by the official
issuing the same, upon the payment of a fee of one dollar ($1.00) in
addition to the costs of publication and notice, which shall be paid at
the time of the filing of the application for the transfer and/or sale.
This section shall permit the transfer of location and the assignment
of license in the same application.
