  4       authority, school or educational institution concerned a sworn statement,
  5       on a form to be provided by the director of taxation, that all purchases so
  6       made were entitled to exemption under this subsection. As an alternative
  7       to the foregoing procedure, any such contracting entity may apply to the
  8       secretary of revenue for agent status for the sole purpose of issuing and
  9       furnishing project exemption certificates to contractors pursuant to rules
10       and regulations adopted by the secretary establishing conditions and stan-

19       the month following the close of the month in which it shall be deter-
20       mined that such materials will not be used for the purpose for which such
21       certificate was issued, the political subdivision, hospital or public hospital
22       authority, school or educational institution concerned shall be liable for
23       tax on all materials purchased for the project, and upon payment thereof
24       it may recover the same from the contractor together with reasonable
25       attorney fees. Any contractor or any agent, employee or subcontractor
26       thereof, who shall use or otherwise dispose of any materials purchased
27       under such a certificate for any purpose other than that for which such a
28       certificate is issued without the payment of the sales or compensating tax
29       otherwise imposed upon such materials, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor
30       and, upon conviction therefor, shall be subject to the penalties provided
31       for in subsection (g) of K.S.A. 79-3615, and amendments thereto;

33       contractor for the erection, repair or enlargement of buildings or other
34       projects for the government of the United States, its agencies or instru-

36       by the government of the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities.
37       When the government of the United States, its agencies or instrumen-
38       talities shall contract for the erection, repair, or enlargement of any build-
39       ing or other project, it shall obtain from the state and furnish to the
40       contractor an exemption certificate for the project involved, and the con-
41       tractor may purchase materials for incorporation in such project. The
42       contractor shall furnish the number of such certificates to all suppliers

  5       purchases so made were entitled to exemption under this subsection. As
  6       an alternative to the foregoing procedure, any such contracting entity may
  7       apply to the secretary of revenue for agent status for the sole purpose of
  8       issuing and furnishing project exemption certificates to contractors pur-
  9       suant to rules and regulations adopted by the secretary establishing con-
10       ditions and standards for the granting and maintaining of such status. All
11       invoices shall be held by the contractor for a period of five years and shall
12       be subject to audit by the director of taxation. Any contractor or any agent,
13       employee or subcontractor thereof, who shall use or otherwise dispose of
