    AN ACT to amend the Dance Studio Act by changing  Section
7.

    Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:

    Section 5.  The Dance Studio Act is amended  by  changing
Section 7 as follows:

    (815 ILCS 610/7) (from Ch. 29, par. 50-7)
    Sec.  7.  Prohibited contract provisions. (a) (Blank). No
contract for dance studio services shall require payment of a
total amount in excess of $2500, and every such contract must
so provide in writing.
    (b)  No contract for dance studio services shall  require
payments  or  financing  over  a period in excess of one year
from the date the contract is entered  into,  nor  shall  the
term  of  any  such  contract  be measured by the life of the
customer.  The services to be rendered under the contract may
not extend over a period of more than  one year from the date
the parties enter into  the  contract.   Every  contract  for
dance  studio  services  shall  include these prohibitions in
writing.
    (c)  No contract for dance studio services shall  require
or  entail  the  execution of any note by the customer which,
when separately negotiated, will cut off as to third  parties
any  right  of  action or defense which the customer may have
against the dance studio.  No  right  of  action  or  defense
arising out of a contract for dance studio services which the
customer   has  against  the  studio  shall  be  cut  off  by
assignment of  the  contract  whether  or  not  the  assignee
acquires  the  contract in good faith and for value.  Such an
assignee is not a holder in due course.
