5. Criteria for medical exemptions from ignition interlock requirements for persons submitting a physician's certification indicating the person has a documented medical condition preventing the person from providing a breath sample of at least one and two-tenths (1.2) liters.

Medical exemptions under this paragraph are only authorized for revocations imposed in accordance with paragraph 1 of subsection A of Section 6-205.1 of this title;

6. Criteria for granting employer exceptions to ignition interlock requirements in vehicles owned or leased by the employer.
