under the laws of this state, located or doing business within the

limits of the State of Oklahoma shall annually pay to this state a

privilege tax at the rate of four percent (4%) of the amount of the

B. 1. The privilege tax levied by this section shall be in

of all taxes levied by the State of Oklahoma, or any subdivision

thereof, upon the shares of stock or personal property of any

banking association or credit union subject to taxation under this

section.

2. Nothing in this section shall be construed to exempt the

real property of any banking associations or credit unions from

taxation to the same extent, according to its value, as other real

property is taxed. Nothing herein shall be construed to exempt an

association from payment of any fee or tax authorized or levied

pursuant to the banking laws.

3. Personal property which is subject to a lease agreement

between a bank or credit union, as lessor, and a nonbanking business

2434 of this title.

C. Any tax levied under this section shall accrue on the last

day of the taxable year and be payable as provided in Section 2375

authorities, not otherwise exempted under the laws of this state;

and

2. Expense deductions claimed in arriving at taxable income

under paragraph 10 of Section 2353 of this title shall be reduced by

an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of excluded interest income

on obligations of the United States government or agencies thereof

and obligations of the State of Oklahoma or political subdivisions

thereof.
