         a.  In the case of an obligation payable under its terms in

      installments during the extended period at the rate of interest
      prescribed for the obligation or liability, if paid when due, and
      subject to other terms the court considers to be reasonable and just.

         3.  When any court has granted a stay as provided in this section,
      a fine or penalty shall not accrue for failure to comply with the
      terms or conditions of the obligation or liability for which the stay
      was granted during the period the terms and conditions of the stay
