Each of the days delay

Could someone please give me some advice on the grammar/punctuation of the following sentance?

'A charge of 20% of the daily rate for each of the days delay is requested.'

I'm not happy about 'days'. I feel there should be an apostrophe, but where? Or is the grammar wrong anyway, and I should rephrase it?

Now I look at it, I'm not happy about 'charge' either. You don't request a charge, do you? You make a charge, or request a payment. Hmmm...

Any advice gratefully received!

What about:

A charge of 20% of the [daily rate/ rate per diem] will be levied for each extra day requested.
