28    declining  balances  of principal which would result from any
29    required or optional amortization of  the  principal  of  the
30    loan,  the  rate  of  interest  shall  be  calculated  in the
31    following manner:
32        The percentage  of  the  principal  amount  of  the  loan
33    represented  by  all of such charges shall first be computed,
34    which in the case of a loan with an interest rate  in  excess
                            -4-                LRB9004225PTcw

 2    than loans described in paragraphs (e) and (f) of Section  4,
 3    shall   not   exceed  3%  of  such  principal  amount.   Said
 4    percentage shall then be divided by the number of  years  and
 5    fractions  thereof of the period of the loan according to its
 6    stated maturity.  The percentage thus obtained shall then  be
 7    added  to  the  percentage  of  the  stated  annual  rate  of
 8    interest.
 9        The borrower in the case of nonexempt loan shall have the
10    right  to  prepay  the  loan in whole or in part at any time,
11    but, except as may otherwise be provided by  Section  4,  the
12    lender may require payment of not more than 6 months' advance
13    interest  on  that  part  of  the  aggregate  amount  of  all
14    prepayments  on  a loan in one year, which exceeds 20% of the
15    original principal amount of the loan.
