I certify that the electricity purchased on or after from Gulf Coast Electric Cooperative will be used directly and exclusively for production of processing of agricultural farm products on a farm and is exempt from sales tax pursuant to Section 212.08(5)(e)2., Florida Statutes.

I understand that if I fraudulently issue this certificate to evade the payment of sales tax I will be liable for payment of the sales tax, plus a mandatory penalty of 200% of the tax, and will be liable for fine and punishment provided by law for conviction of a felony of the third degree, as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084, F.S.
Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have read the foregoing document and that the facts stated in it are true.
