      pursuant  to  the  federal  Truth  in  Lending  Act  in  addition to the
      following disclosure, in English and Spanish, in at least 20-point type:
        YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO ENTER INTO THIS PAYDAY LOAN  AGREEMENT  MERELY

      LOAN, YOU WILL BE CHARGED ADDITIONAL COSTS AND FEES.

      ${insert  amount}  IN  FINANCE CHARGES FOR THE LOAN. AFTER THESE FINANCE
      CHARGES ARE PAID, YOU WILL RECEIVE  APPROXIMATELY  ${insert  amount}  AS
      YOUR LOAN.
        THE  ESTIMATED  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE RATE OF YOUR PAYDAY LOAN IS {insert

        It shall be the obligation  of  the  person  offering,  providing,  or
      facilitating  the  payday  loan  to  complete  the  required  disclosure
      accurately with all relevant information for each consumer and to ensure
      that the completed disclosure form is signed by the consumer  before  he
      or she enters into the payday loan.
