(a) An association shall not in any manner extend credit, lease or sell property of any kind, or furnish any service, or fix or vary the consideration for any of the foregoing, on the condition or requirement that the customer: (1) Shall obtain additional credit, property or service from such association, or from any service corporation or affiliate of such association, other than a loan, discount, deposit or trust service; (2) provide additional credit, property or service to such associations or to any service corporation or affiliate of such association, other than those related to and usually provided in connection with a similar loan, discount, deposit or trust service; or (3) shall not obtain some other credit, property or services from a competitor of such association, or from a competitor of any service corporation or affiliate of such association, other than a condition or requirement that such association shall reasonably impose in connection with credit transactions to assure the soundness of credit.

(b) Any person may sue for and have injunctive relief in the courts of this state having jurisdiction over the parties against threatened loss or damage by reason of a violation of this section under the same conditions and principles as injunctive relief against threatened conduct that will cause loss or damage is granted by courts of this state under the rules governing such proceedings. Upon the execution of proper bond as provided in K.S.A. 60-905, and amendments thereto, and after a showing the danger of irreparable loss or damage is immediate, a temporary injunction may be issued.

(c) Any person who is injured in such person's business or property by reason of anything forbidden in this section, may sue in any district court of this state where the defendant resides or is found or has an agent and shall be entitled to recover three times the amount of the damages sustained by such person and the cost of the suit, including reasonable attorney fees.

(d) Nothing contained in this section shall be construed as affecting in any manner the right of this state or any other party to bring an action under any other law of the United States or of any state, including any right which may exist in addition to specific statutory authority challenging the legality of any act or practice which may be proscribed by this section. No regulation or order issued by the state savings and loan board shall in any manner constitute a defense to such action.

(e) For the purposes of this section: (1) "Affiliate of an association" means any individual or company, including any corporation, partnership, trust, joint-stock company or similar organization which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such association; and (2) "loan" includes obligations and extensions or advances of credit.
