    9  rental, the use, the consumption, the distribution, and the
   10  storage to be used or consumed in this state of the following
   11  are hereby specifically exempt from the tax imposed by this
   12  chapter.
   13         (7) MISCELLANEOUS EXEMPTIONS.—Exemptions provided to any
   14  entity by this chapter do not inure to any transaction that is
   15  otherwise taxable under this chapter when payment is made by a
   16  representative or employee of the entity by any means,
   17  including, but not limited to, cash, check, or credit card, even
   18  when that representative or employee is subsequently reimbursed
   19  by the entity. In addition, exemptions provided to any entity by
   20  this subsection do not inure to any transaction that is
   21  otherwise taxable under this chapter unless the entity has

   24  required by the department. Eligible purchases or leases made
   25  with such a certificate must be in strict compliance with this
   26  subsection and departmental rules, and any person who makes an
   27  exempt purchase with a certificate that is not in strict
   28  compliance with this subsection and the rules is liable for and
   29  shall pay the tax. The department may adopt rules to administer
