12. Small Business Provisions - 40 CFR 79.58(d). (See instructions)
A manufacturer of a baseline or non baseline fuel whose average of the previous three years annual sales revenue is less than $50
million is exempt from the Tier 1 and Tier 2 health-effects testing requirements. A manufacturer of an atypical fuel whose average
of the previous three years annual sales revenue is less than $10 million is exempt from the Tier 2 requirements. If you believe that
you qualify for an exemption, enter below your sales revenue for each of the previous three years and the average.
(Note: In cases where subsidiary, divisional, or other complex business arrangements exist, the business entity to which this sales
level pertains is the parent company with ultimate ownership. The "ultimate" parent is defined as the uppermost headquarters or
topmost company encompassing all related parents, subsidiaries, divisions, branches, or other operating units. This definition
follows that used by the Small Business Administration. It also helps to ensure that a company will not subdivide merely to
become eligible for an exemption.)

Annual sales revenue 2 years ago: $
Annual sales revenue 1 year ago: $
Average of above: $
