Section 1351.07 | Advertisements - mandatory information to be supplied.

(1) The payment due upon origination of the lease;

(2) The lease payment;

(3) The total number of lease payments necessary to obtain ownership of the property that is the subject of the lease-purchase agreement.

(C) All lease-purchase property displayed or offered under a lease-purchase agreement shall have stamped upon or affixed to the property, or otherwise disclosed as provided in division (D) of this section, and clearly and conspicuously indicated in Arabic numerals that are readable and understandable by visual inspection, all of the following:

(E) When personal property that is not lease-purchase property is displayed or offered for a lease-purchase agreement, the lessor shall provide the information described under divisions (C)(1) to (3) of this section electronically, in the same manner described under division (D) of this section, rather than stamping or affixing such information to the property.
