    (e) Election of State Regarding Nonapplicability.--A provision of

            (2) declaring the election of such State that such 
        provision shall not apply to such civil action in the State; 
        and
            (3) containing no other provisions.
    (f) Effective Date.--This section shall apply to injuries (and 
deaths resulting therefrom) occurring on or after the date of the 
enactment of this Act.
Protects business entities from civil liability under Federal and State law for any injury or death resulting from: (1) the use of equipment donated to nonprofit organizations by such entities; (2) the authorized use of facilities made available to nonprofit organizations by such entities where the use occurs outside the scope of business; or (3) the authorized operation of aircraft or motor vehicles loaned to nonprofit organizations by such entities for use outside the scope of business. Creates an exception for injuries or death resulting from a business entity's gross negligence or intentional misconduct.

Preempts inconsistent State laws unless such laws provide additional protection for business entities or the State elects not to be covered by this Act. Makes the provisions of this Act inapplicable to civil actions in State court where all parties are citizens of the State and the State has opted out of coverage by such election.
