Official statutory text
LESSOR'S RIGHTS TO DISPOSE OF GOODS
(1) After a default by a lessee under the lease contract of the
type described in subsection (1) of Section 2A-523 of this title or
paragraph (a) of subsection (3) of Section 2A-523 of this title or
after the lessor refuses to deliver or takes possession of goods
(Section 2A-525 or 2A-526 of this title), or, if agreed, after other
default by a lessee, the lessor may dispose of the goods concerned
or the undelivered balance thereof by lease, sale, or otherwise.
(2) Except as otherwise provided with respect to damages
liquidated in the lease agreement (Section 2A-504 of this title) or
otherwise determined pursuant to agreement of the parties
(subsection (c) of Section 15 of this act and Section 2A-503 of this
title), if the disposition is by lease agreement substantially
similar to the original lease agreement and the new lease agreement
Oklahoma Statutes - Title 12A. Uniform Commercial Code Page 276
is made in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, the
lessor may recover from the lessee as damages:
(i) accrued and unpaid rent as of the date of the
commencement of the term of the new lease agreement,
(ii) the present value, as of the same date, of the total
rent for the then remaining lease term of the original
lease agreement minus the present value, as of the
same date, of the rent under the new lease agreement
applicable to that period of the new lease term which
is comparable to the then remaining term of the
original lease agreement, and
(iii) any incidental damages allowed under Section 2A-530 of
this title, less expenses saved in consequence of the
lessee's default.
(3) If the lessor's disposition is by lease agreement that for
any reason does not qualify for treatment under subsection (2) of
this section, or is by sale or otherwise, the lessor may recover
from the lessee as if the lessor had elected not to dispose of the
goods and Section 2A-528 of this title governs.
(4) A subsequent buyer or lessee who buys or leases from the
lessor in good faith for value as a result of a disposition under
this section takes the goods free of the original lease contract and
any rights of the original lessee even though the lessor fails to
comply with one or more of the requirements of this article.
(5) The lessor is not accountable to the lessee for any profit
made on any disposition. A lessee who has rightfully rejected or
justifiably revoked acceptance shall account to the lessor for any
excess over the amount of the lessee's security interest (subsection
(5) of Section 2A-508 of this title).
