        (4)    The unit price, that is, the price per gallon or per pound of the fuel delivered;

        (5)    In the case of sale by liquid measure, the liquid volume of the delivery, together with any meter readings from which the liquid volume is computed, expressed in terms of the gallon and its binary or decimal subdivisions; and

        (6)    In the case of sale by weight, the net weight of the delivery, together with any weighing scale readings from which the net weight is computed, expressed in terms of tons or pounds avoirdupois.

    (c)    The provisions of subsection (b) of this section do not apply to deliveries of liquid fuel made on the premises of the vendor if the vendor is supplying the fuel tank of a motor vehicle, motorized equipment, aircraft, or watercraft. The requirement of subsection (b)(4) of this section does not apply when the product is liquified petroleum gas, which is defined for the purpose of this subsection as a petroleum product composed predominately of propane, propylene, butane, isobutane, butylenes, or mixtures of those products, if the delivery ticket, written statement, or invoice states that the price list is available on request. A ticket or other written statement accompanying the delivery of any other liquid fuels and used only as a bill of lading or manifest is exempt from the requirement of subsection (b)(4) of this section if the ticket or written statement utilized as an invoice for payment indicates all of the information set forth in subsection (b) of this section.
