Section 2-A-524. Lessor's Right to Identify Goods to Lease Contract.

(1) After default by the lessee under the lease contract of the type

described in Section 2-A-523 (1) or Section 2-A-523 (3)(a) or, if

agreed, after other default by the lessee, the lessor may:

(a) identify to the lease contract conforming goods not already

identified if at the time the lessor learned of the default

they were in the lessor's or the supplier's possession or

control; and

(b) dispose of goods (Section 2-A-527(1)) that demonstrably have

been intended for the particular lease contract even though

those goods are unfinished.

(2) If the goods are unfinished, in the exercise of reasonable

commercial judgment for the purposes of avoiding loss and of effective

realization, an aggrieved lessor or the supplier may either complete

manufacture and wholly identify the goods to the lease contract or cease

manufacture and lease, sell, or otherwise dispose of the goods for scrap

or salvage value or proceed in any other reasonable manner.
