E-Sign Compliant EmailFrom the Commentary to the Rule (emphasis)
Page(s) 16912. Electronic delivery. The three-business-day period provided in § 1026.19(e)(1)(iv) applies to methods ofelectronic delivery, such as email. For example, if a creditor sends the disclosures required under § 1026.19(e) via email on Monday, pursuant to § 1026.19(e)(1)(iv) the consumer is considered to have received the disclosures on Thursday, three business days later. The creditor may, alternatively, rely on evidence that the consumer received the emailed disclosures earlier. For example, if the creditor emails the disclosures at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, the consumer emails the creditor with an acknowledgement of receipt of the disclosures at 5 p.m. on the same day, the creditor could demonstrate that the disclosures were received on the same day. Creditors using electronic delivery methods, such as email, must also comply with § 1026.37(o)(3)(iii), which provides that the disclosures in § 1026.37 may be provided to the consumer in electronic form, subject to compliance with the consumer consent and other applicable provisions of the E-Sign Act. For example, if a creditor delivers the disclosures required under § 1026.19(e)(1)(i) to a consumer via email, but the creditor did not obtain the consumer’s consent to receive disclosures via email prior to delivering the disclosures, then the creditor does not comply with § 1026.37(o)(3)(iii), and the creditor does not comply with § 1026.19(e)(1)(i), assuming the disclosures were not provided in a different manner in accordance with the timing requirements of § 1026.19(e)(1)(iii).

Consumer Handbook on Adjustable Rate Mortgages CHARM Booklet
A loan program disclosure for each variable-rate program in which the applicant expresses an interest must be provided to the applicant in a form they can keep
• Your interest rate will be based on an index plus a margin.
• Your payment will be based on the interest rate, loan balance and loan term.
-- The interest rate will be based on the weekly average yield on US Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant maturity of 1 year (your index), plus our margin. Ask for our current interest rate and margin.
-- Information about the index rate is published in the Wall Street Journal.
• Your interest rate will equal the index rate plus our margin unless your interest rate “caps” limit the amount of change in the interest rate.
This disclosure describes the features of the adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) program you are considering. Information on other ARM programs is available upon request.
How Your Interest Rate and Payment are Determined
Page 9-14
• Your interest rate can change yearly.
• Your interest rate cannot increase or decrease by more than 2 percentage points at each adjustment.
• Your interest rate cannot increase by more than 5 percentage points over the term of the loan.
How Your Interest Rate Can Change
How Your Payment Can Change• Your monthly payment can increase or decrease substantially based
on annual changes in the interest rate.
• [For example, on a $10,000 30-year loan with an initial interest rate of 12.41% in effect in July 1996, the maximum amount that the interest rate can rise under this program is 5% to 17.41%, and the monthly payment can rise from a first year payment of $106.03 to a maximum of $145.34 in the fourth year. To see what your payments would be, divide your mortgage amount $10,000, then multiply the monthly payment by that amount. (For example, $60,000 divided by $10,000 equals 6; 6 X $106.03 = $636.18 per month)
• You will be notified in writing 25 days before the annual payment adjustment may be made. This notice will contain information about your interest rates, payment amount, and loan balance.] Page 9-14
[Example:
The example below shows how your payments would have changed under this ARM program based on actual changes in the index from 1982 to 1996. This does not necessarily indicate how your index will change in the future.
The example is based on the following assumptions:
Amount…………………..$10,000
Term………………………30 years
Payment Adjustment…..1 year
Interest Adjustment……1 year
[Margin]*…………………3%
Caps……………………...2 % annual interest rate
5% lifetime interest rate
Index……………………..Weekly average yield on US Treasury
securities adjusted to a constant
maturity of one year

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*This is a margin we have used recently, your margin may be different.**This interest rate reflects a 2 percentage point annual interest rate cap.***This interest rate reflects a 5 percentage rate lifetime interest rate cap.
To see what your monthly payments would have been during that period, divide yourmortgage amount by $10,000, then multiply the monthly payment by that amount (Forexample, in 1996, the monthly payment for a mortgage amount of $60,000 taken outin 1982 would be $60,000 divided by $10,000 = 6; 6 X $106.73 = $640.38.)
• You will be notified in writing 25 days before the annual payment adjustment may be made. This notice will contain information about your interest rates, payment amount, and loan balance.] Page 9-14
ECOA StatementThe federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibits creditors
from discriminating against credit application on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age (provided the applicant has the capacity to enter into a binding contract); because all or part of the applicant’s income derives from any public assistance program; or because the applicant has in good faith exercised a right under the Consumer Credit Protection Act. The federal agency that administers compliance with this law concerning this creditor is (name and address as specified by the appropriate agency listed in Appendix A or Regulation B).
The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires a creditor that is using a credit score to make or arrange consumer credit (open-end and closed-end credit) secured by one to four units of residential real property (including purchase or refinance transactions) to provide the credit score with accompanying information to the applicants. The timing of this notice should be “as soon as reasonably practicable,” once the credit report has been received.
Risk Based Pricing NoticeThe Fair Credit Reporting Act requires a creditor to provide a risk-
based pricing notice to a consumer when the creditor uses a consumer report to grant or extend credit to the consumer on material terms that are materially less favorable terms than the most favorable terms available to a substantial proportion of consumers from or through that creditor.
The creditor must disclose, as applicable, a credit score it used in taking adverse action along with related information, including up to four key factors that adversely affected the consumer’s credit score (or up to five if the number of inquiries made with respect to the consumer report is a key factor). Disclosing the consumer’s credit score does not satisfy the ECOA requirement to disclose specific reasons for denying or taking adverse action on an application or extension of credit.
