   (1)  AB and AN Permits are issued for a nonrefundable fee of $10 for each calendar year or part thereof.
   (2)  AE Permits are issued free of charge.
   (3)  A fee is not required for a permit issued to a State-owned institution, department, board or commission of the Commonwealth or to a political subdivision thereof or to an agency of the United States Government.
(d)  Restrictions. There are no restrictions upon the quantity of alcohol which may be purchased under any class of permit.
(e)  Issuance and privileges.
   (1)  AB Permits will be issued only to resident distillery licensees. The holder of the permit may purchase alcohol at wholesale either directly or by special order through the State Store system, from other resident distillery licensees, from legal vendors or manufacturers located outside of this Commonwealth or import alcohol manufactured by its own distilleries located outside of this Commonwealth.
   (2)  AN Permits will be issued only to physicians, dentists, veterinarians and pharmacists licensed and registered under the laws of the Commonwealth, manufacturing pharmacists and chemists, manufacturers of products for nonbeverage purposes, hospitals, sanitoriums, eleemosynary institutions, dispensaries, governmental agencies, laboratories, universities and colleges of learning, located in this Commonwealth or for the use of their branches or subdivisions located in this Commonwealth. Permits shall be issued only for the address at which the alcohol is to be stored. An address requires a separate permit. The holder of the permit may purchase alcohol at wholesale either directly or by special order through the State Store system, from resident licensed distillers designated in their application or from distillers outside this Commonwealth, as provided in §  11.33 (relating to purchase of alcohol by AN and AE permittees).
