The supplemental fee imposed by subsection a. of this section shall not be imposed on a conveyance or transfer that is made by a deed described in section 6 of P.L.1968, c.49 (C.46:15-10) or on a transfer described in paragraph (1) or paragraph (2) of subsection (a) of section 4 of P.L.1975, c.176 (C.46:15-10.1). c.

In any county, amounts of supplemental fees retained that are in excess of the amounts required to be used for the funding of the county's priority health services under this subsection shall be used by the county for general county purposes. e.

Every deed subject to the supplemental fee required by this section, which is in fact recorded, shall be conclusively deemed to have been entitled to recording, notwithstanding that the amount of the consideration shall have been incorrectly stated, or that the correct amount of the supplemental fee, if any, shall not have been paid, and no such defect shall in any way affect or impair the validity of the title conveyed or render the same unmarketable; but the person or persons required to pay that supplemental fee at the time of recording shall be and remain liable to the county recording officer for the payment of the proper amount thereof.
