(b) The following requirements shall apply to each sale of merchandise by a telemarketer:

(1) The telemarketer's sales transaction shall only be considered final 7 business days after the customer has received a written notice as required by this subsection.
(2) The telemarketer shall furnish the customer, in the same language as that principally used in the sales presentation, said written notice, which shall contain in not less than 12-point boldface type, a statement in substantially the following form:

“You, the purchaser, may cancel this transaction without any penalty or obligation at any time prior to midnight of the seventh business day after receipt of this notice. If you cancel, any payments made by you under the sale will be returned within 10 business days following receipt by the seller of your written notice of cancellation and any security interest arising out of the transaction will be canceled.
If you cancel, you must make available to the seller at your residence, in substantially as good condition as when received, any merchandise delivered to you under this contract of sale; or you may, if you wish, comply with the instructions of the seller regarding the return shipment of the goods at the seller's expense and risk.
If you do make the merchandise available to the seller and the seller does not pick the merchandise up within 20 days of the date of your notice of cancellation, or agree to pay the expense for its return, you may retain or dispose of the merchandise without any further obligation. If you fail to make the merchandise available to the seller, or if you agree to return the merchandise to the seller and fail to do so, then you remain liable for performance of all obligations under the contract.
To cancel this transaction, mail or deliver a written notice of cancellation or send a telegram to (name of seller) at the following address (address of seller). The effective time of any cancellation is deemed to be the postmarked date upon which the notice was mailed to the seller, the date upon which the notice was delivered to any commercial document or parcel service for delivery to the seller or the date upon which any telegram was sent to the seller.”
(3) The telemarketer or telemarketing business shall notify the customer of the seller's name, address and phone number and the name, address and phone number of the person to whom any notice of cancellation is to be given if different from the seller. The seller is additionally required to furnish the customer with the date of the telephone solicitation and a description of the telephone solicitation.
(c) Exempt from the requirements of subsection (b) of this section is any sale in which the consumer is given a full refund for the return of undamaged and unused goods, or the merchant guarantees full satisfaction or a cancellation of services notice, when the consumer has at least 7 days to review goods or services after receipt of the goods or services by the consumer, and the seller shall process the refund within 30 days after receipt of returned merchandise or cancellation of services by the consumer. The seller must disclose the review, return and refund policy to the buyer orally by telephone or in writing with advertising or promotional material or with delivery of goods or services. A seller must disclose a return address in writing where the consumer may return goods or cancel services. A seller who discloses in writing that a sale provides “satisfaction guaranteed” or “free inspection” or “no risk guarantee,” or similar words or phrases, shall be deemed to meet the requirements of the review and refund policy.”
