lease-purchase agreement without losing any rights or options previously acquired

of the disclosures required by section 1351.02 of the Revised Code . (D) A lessee who fails to make a timely lease payment shall, before such lessee is determined

to be in default, be allowed a grace period of not less than two days if payments

monthly installments;  however, no lessee shall be entitled to more than three such

monthly grace periods per year.
