The mortgagee shall execute and deliver to the mortgagor at the address within this state specified in the notice a stipulation in writing setting forth the principal amount of loans made or agreed to be made on the security of the mortgage prior to the time of the receipt of the notice and relinquishing the right to have the mortgage constitute security for additional loans made to the mortgagor subsequent to the receipt of the written notice except loans which the mortgagee prior to receipt of the notice agreed to make to the mortgagor.
