Revenue, that resulting from the exemption will inure solely to
the benet of the institution, organization or public body.
(4)(a) The claim must be led on or before April 1 preceding the
tax year for which the exemption is claimed, except:
(A) If the lease, sublease or lease-purchase agreement is entered
