(2) The records required by subsection (1) of this section shall show the names and addresses of purchasers and other pertinent papers and documents relating to the purchase, sale or disposition of tobacco products.
(3) When a licensed distributor sells tobacco products exclusively to consumers at the address given in the certificate and sells only tobacco products for which taxes imposed under ORS 323.500 to 323.645 have been paid prior to sale, an invoice of any individual sale of less than 100 cigars or of tobacco products with a wholesale sales price of less than $50 is not required.

(b) The department or its authorized representative, upon oral or written demand, may make such examinations of the books, papers, records and equipment required to be kept under this section as it may deem necessary in carrying out the provisions of ORS 323.500 to 323.645.
(c) If the department, or any of its agents or employees, are denied free access or are hindered or interfered with in making such examination, the license of the distributor at such premises shall be subject to cancellation, suspension or revocation by the department.
