(6)   EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SUBSECTION (B) OF
THIS SECTION, A RETAIL SALES AGENCY WHICH:

(i) DURING THE PRECEDING CALENDAR YEAR, SOLD
A GROSS VOLUME OF CONSUMER COMMODITIES OF LESS THAN
$750,000;

(ii) IS NOT PART OF A COMPANY WHICH CONSISTS

(B) EXCEPTIONS.

A SALES AGENCY WHICH OTHERWISE IS EXEMPT UNDER
SUBSECTION (A)(6) OF THIS SECTION NEVERTHELESS IS SUBJECT
TO THIS SUBTITLE IF, DURING THE PRECEDING CALENDAR YEAR,
THE COMPANY OF WHICH THE SALES AGENCY IS A PART HAS A
GROSS VOLUME OF SALES OF CONSUMER COMMODITIES IN EXCESS
OF $30,000,000.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 83, §21E(b).

The term "instrumentality" is deleted as
unnecessary in light of the general term
"sales agency."

Subsection (a) (4) is reworded for clarity,
making the added qualifications as to items
not sold through a vending machine
unnecessary.

The only other changes are in style and
organization.
