after receipt of a request, send to the consumer obligor a record waiving the secured

must provide the following information in the following order: (a) The aggregate amount of obligations secured by the security interest under which
the disposition was made, and, if the amount reflects a rebate of unearned interest
or credit service charge, an indication of that fact, calculated as of a specified
date: (1) If the secured party takes or receives possession of the collateral after default,
not more than 35 days before the secured party takes or receives possession; or (2) If the secured party takes or receives possession of the collateral before default
or does not take possession of the collateral, not more than 35 days before the disposition; (b) The amount of proceeds of the disposition; (c) The aggregate amount of the obligations after deducting the amount of proceeds; (d) The amount, in the aggregate or by type, and types of expenses, including expenses

and attorney's fees secured by the collateral which are known to the secured party
and relate to the current disposition; (e) The amount, in the aggregate or by type, and types of credits, including rebates
of interest or credit service charges, to which the obligor is known to be entitled
and which are not reflected in the amount in paragraph (a); and (f) The amount of the surplus or deficiency. 4. A particular phrasing of the explanation is not required. An explanation complying substantially with the requirements of paragraph (a) of
subsection 1 is sufficient, even if it includes minor errors that are not seriously
misleading. 5. A debtor or consumer obligor is entitled without charge to one response to a request
under this section during any 6-month period in which the secured party did not send
to the debtor or consumer obligor an explanation pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection
2. The secured party may require payment of a charge not exceeding $25 for each additional
