Actual costs may differ substantially."(B) If the finance charge, annual percentage rate or term will vary for different classes of legally enforceable claims with different characteristics, the following in the order listed:(i) "The calculations below are based upon a hypothetical [description of legally enforceable claims to be assigned, e.g., "invoice"] of [insert value calculated in accordance with section 951], assigned to [name of financer] with a due date [term] from the date of assignment."(ii) A short explanation of the class of the legally enforceable claim for which the disclosure applies. For example: "These calculations further assume that the account debtor on the invoice is [name of account debtor]."(iii) "Actual costs may differ substantially."(3) The second row of the table shall include only the following information:(A) In the first column: "Funding Provided".(B) In the second column, the amount financed.(C) In the third column, in the order listed and in one paragraph: (i) "This is how much [name of financer] will pay when you assign [description of legally enforceable claim, e.g. "the invoice"] to [name of financer]."(ii) If the amount financed is greater than the recipient funds: "Due to deductions or payments to others, the total funds that will be provided to you directly is [recipient funds]. For more information on what amounts will be deducted, please review the attached document "Itemization of Amount Financed.""(iii) If any portion of the amount financed will be used to pay down or pay off other amounts owed by the recipient that may change over time, and the amounts owed are known to the provider, the provider shall also include a short explanation that the amount paid directly to the recipient may change if the amount owed for the recipient's other obligations changes.(iv) If, as a condition of the financing, a recipient's amounts owed to third parties must be paid down or paid off using funds from the amount financed, and an amount owed is not known to the provider, the provider shall also include a short explanation that the amount paid directly to the recipient may change based upon the required disbursements to satisfy other obligations.(4) The third row of the table shall include only the following information: (A) In the first column: "Annual Percentage Rate (APR)".(B) In the second column, the provider's calculation of the annual percentage rate of the transaction calculated in accordance with sections 940 and 941.(C) In third column: "This is the estimated cost of your financing expressed as a yearly rate. APR includes the amount and timing of the funding you receive, fees you pay, and payments made to [name of financer]. This estimate assumes that you will assign the [description of legally enforceable claim assigned, e.g. "invoice"] to [name of financer] today, the [description of legally enforceable claim assigned] is due in [term] and your customer will pay the [name of legally enforceable claim assigned, e.g. "invoice"] in full on the due date."
(D) If no part of the finance charge is based upon an interest rate, in addition to the language required by subdivision (a)(4)(C) of this section: "APR is not an interest rate and the amount of the finance charge is not based upon an interest rate."(5) The fourth row of the table shall include the following information: (A) In the first column: "Finance Charge".(B) In the second column, the total finance charge calculated in accordance with section 943.(C) In the third column, the provider's calculation of the finance charge, with the amount and a description of each expense (e.g., factoring fee, origination fee, etc.) that is included in the finance charge.(6) The fifth row of the table shall include only the following information: (A) In the first column: "Payment Amount".(B) In second column: "NA" or "N/A" or "Not applicable".(C) In the third column, a short explanation describing why the recipient is not ordinarily required to make payments under the contract.

The invoice may be paid sooner or later than the due date."(8) The seventh row of the table shall include only the following information: (A) In the first column: "Prepayment".(B) The second and third columns shall be combined, and:(C) If the recipient is permitted to repurchase the legally enforceable claim for payment before the legally enforceable claim is due and payable, the resulting combined cell shall be divided vertically into two cells by a horizontal line, and: (i) If at any time during the term of the transaction, repurchase of the legally enforceable claim will result in the recipient paying finance charges other than interest since the advance was made, the top cell shall include the following statement: "If you repurchase the [description of legally enforceable claim] before the due date, you still must pay all or a portion of the finance charge, which could be as high as $[maximum non-interest finance charge]."(ii) In all other cases, the top cell shall include the following statement, "If you repurchase the [description of legally enforceable claim] before the due date, you will not pay any portion of the finance charge other than unpaid interest accrued since disbursement, if applicable."(iii) If, at any time during the term of the transaction, repurchase of the legally enforceable claim will require the recipient to pay additional fees and charges not included in the finance charge, the bottom cell shall include the following statement: "If you repurchase the [description of legally enforceable claim] before the due date, you must pay additional fees and charges, including [amount and description of fees]."(iv) In all other cases, the bottom cell shall state: "If you repurchase the [description of legally enforceable claim] before the due date, you will not be required to pay any additional fees and charges."(D) If the recipient is not permitted to repurchase the legally enforceable claim for payment before the legally enforceable claim is due and payable, the resulting cell shall include the following statements: (i) "You are not permitted to pay the amount due on the [description of legally enforceable claim] before your customer's due date."(ii) If applicable: "The finance charge will not decrease if your customer pays the [description of legally enforceable claim] before the due date."Cal.
