## Text

(a) A consumer may modify or waive the right to rescind
 the deadlines for disclosures before the execution of the contract
 if the consumer determines that the purchase transaction is needed
 to meet a
bona fide
emergency. To
 modify or waive the right, the consumer shall give the retailer a
 dated written statement that describes the emergency, specifically
 modifies or waives the notice periods, and bears the signature of
 all the consumers entitled to the disclosures and right of rescission.
 Printed forms for this purpose are prohibited, except as set forth
 on the Department's website.
(b) Printed forms may be used to the rights as provided
 for in §1201.164 of the Standards Act only if:

 is used; and
(2) The Director has reviewed and approved the language
 used to describe the specific declared emergency.
(c) A retailer or manufacturer may not transfer ownership
 of a new or used HUD-code manufactured home or otherwise sell, assign,
 or convey a HUD-code manufactured home to a consumer unless the retailer
 or manufacturer delivers to the consumer a formaldehyde health notice.
(1) The formaldehyde health notice must be delivered
 before the execution of a mutually binding sales agreement or retail
 installment sales contract.
(2) The formaldehyde health notice will be provided
 on the Manufactured Housing Division's website. The notice must be
 of the type, size and format required by the director. A retailer
 or manufacturer may not vary the content or form of the notice.
(3) The formaldehyde health notice may be combined
 with other disclosures, if deemed appropriate.
