(1) No seller or lessor shall engage in this state in false or misleading advertising concerning the terms or conditions of credit with respect to a consumer credit sale or consumer lease.
(2) Without limiting the generality of subsection (1) of this section and without requiring a statement of rate of credit service charge if the credit service charge is not more than Five Dollars ($5.00) when the amount financed does not exceed Seventy-five Dollars ($75.00), or Seven Dollars and fifty cents ($7.50) when the amount financed exceeds Seventy-five Dollars ($75.00), an advertisement with respect to a consumer credit sale made by the posting of a public sign, or by catalog, magazine, newspaper, radio, television or similar mass media, is misleading if:
(3) In this section a catalog or other multiple-page advertisement is considered a single advertisement if it clearly and conspicuously displays a credit terms table setting forth the information required by this section.
(4) This section imposes no liability on the owner or personnel, as such, of any medium in which an advertisement appears or through which it is disseminated.
(5) Advertising which complies with the Federal Consumer Credit Protection Act does not violate subsection (2) of this section.
(6) The provisions of this section do not apply to advertisements of residential real estate except to the extent required by Administrator's rule.
(7) If any advertisement to aid, promote, or assist, directly or indirectly, the extension of consumer credit through a revolving charge account plan under which extensions of credit are secured by the consumer's principal dwelling states, affirmatively or negatively, any of the specific terms of the plan, including any periodic payment amount required under such plan, such advertisement shall also clearly and conspicuously set forth the following information, in such form and manner as the Administrator may require:
(8) If any advertisement described in subsection (7) of this section contains a statement that any interest expense incurred with respect to the plan is or may be tax deductible, the advertisement shall not be misleading with respect to such deductibility.
(9) No advertisement described in subsection (7) of this section with respect to any home equity account may refer to such credit as "free money" or use other terms determined by the Administrator by rule to be misleading.
(11) If any advertisement described in subsection (7) of this section contains a statement regarding the minimum monthly payment under the plan, the advertisement shall also disclose, if applicable, the fact that the plan includes a balloon payment.
(12) For purposes of this section and Section 2-310.2 of this title, the term "balloon payment" means, with respect to any revolving charge account plan under which extensions of credit are secured by the consumer's principal dwelling, any repayment option under which:
The information required to be provided in division (cc) of this subparagraph shall be provided verbally or, if requested by the consumer, in written form.
Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the requirements of law as such requirements apply to advertisement by any medium other than radio broadcast.
