17(b) Time of Disclosures
2. Converting open-end to closed-end credit. Except for home equity plans subject to ยง1026.40 in which the agreement provides for a repayment phase, if an open-end credit account is converted to a closed-end transaction under a written agreement with the consumer, the creditor must provide a set of closed-end credit disclosures before consummation of the closed-end transaction.
You are correct. 1026.20 will not apply to open-end credit and there is no similar exception.
