453453 14 Occupation Tax Act because of involving the sale of or a
454454 15 contract to sell real estate or a construction contract to

456456 17 business, transfers tangible personal property to users or
457457 18 consumers in the finished form in which it was purchased, and
458458 19 which does not become real estate, under any provision of a

496496 21 printed product, property that becomes a part of the final
497497 22 printed product, or copy from which the printed product is

708708 19 by which the transaction is called. "Lease" does not include a
709709 20 lease entered into merely as a security agreement that does
710710 21 not involve a transfer of possession from the lessor to the
711711 22 lessee.
712712 23 On and after January 1, 2025, the term "sale", when used in
713713 24 this Act with respect to tangible personal property, includes

737737 12 determined without any deduction on account of the supplier's
