Communication Federal Credit Union v. Micah J. Amukaya

Filed: Mar 12, 2026
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s be honest—nobody tunes into CrazyCivilCourt expecting high drama over a 2006 Toyota Tundra. But buckle up, because this isn’t just about a pickup truck older than most TikTok trends. This is about $11,600, a failed repossession, and a couple who may have thought they could ghost their car loan like an awkward first date. Spoiler: the credit union did not appreciate being left on read.

Meet Micah Amukaya and Dorcas Otieno—two Oklahoma residents who, back in October 2022, walked into Communication Federal Credit Union with a dream: to drive off in a vehicle that, let’s be real, probably smelled faintly of old fries and regret. For $15,890, they signed on the dotted line for a 2006 Toyota Tundra—yes, that’s eighteen-year-old machinery—with monthly payments of $465. That’s not just a car payment; that’s a small mortgage on wheels. But hey, maybe it had leather. Or power windows. Or at least a working radio. We’ll never know.

Here’s the fine print no one reads: Micah is listed as the borrower. Dorcas? She’s not a co-borrower. She’s a co-signer or guarantor. That means she didn’t just ride shotgun—she signed her financial life over as collateral. Literally. By putting her name on that loan, Dorcas said, “Sure, Credit Union, if Micah flakes, come after me. I’ve got nothing better to do than pay for a truck I don’t even drive.” Bold move. Financially terrifying, but bold.

The deal came with bells and whistles—well, metaphorical ones. GAP insurance? Check. LifePlus Joint coverage? Whatever that is, it cost $595. The credit union even threw in a cheerful reminder that if a payment is late by 15 days, there’s a $15 fee. Chump change, right? Until you miss a few payments, the interest piles up, and suddenly you’re drowning in a sea of 9.74% APR and lender-placed insurance you never asked for.

And then—somewhere between October 2022 and September 2025—things went sideways. Micah and Dorcas stopped paying. The credit union, not known for its patience (or its mercy), declared default. They repossessed the Tundra—because yes, they had a security interest in it—and sold it. But here’s the kicker: the truck didn’t sell for enough to cover what was owed. After all payments, offsets, and the cold, hard reality of depreciation, there was still $11,604.87 left on the table. Add in $1,856.50 in fees and charges, and you’ve got a bill of nearly $13,500. That’s not a car loan anymore. That’s a revenge tour disguised as finance.

Wait—there’s more. The credit union already tried to sue once. Back in 2024, they filed a replevin action (fancy legal speak for “give us the car back”) under Case No. CJ-2024-3894. But that case was dismissed without prejudice, meaning, “We’ll be back.” And back they came—this time not for the truck, but for the money. Because the Tundra is gone, sold “in a commercially reasonable manner” (translation: they auctioned it off and someone bought it for parts), and now the credit union wants Micah and Dorcas to pay the difference. Jointly. And severally. Which, in human terms, means: “Either of you can be on the hook for the full amount. No splitting the bill. No ‘he said, she said.’ Just pay up.”

So what’s the legal beef? Simple: breach of contract. The couple signed a loan agreement. They didn’t pay. The collateral was taken and sold. A deficiency remains. The credit union wants a judgment to make that debt official in the eyes of the court—so they can garnish wages, freeze bank accounts, or just haunt their credit scores like a financial poltergeist. They’re asking for the $11,604.87, plus interest (still ticking at 9.74% per year), fees, court costs, and a “reasonable attorney’s fee.” All perfectly allowed under the contract. Because buried in those 15 pages of legalese was the clause that said, “If you mess up, you pay for our lawyer too.”

Now, is $11,600 a lot? In car terms, it’s less than a down payment on a new SUV. But for a 2006 Tundra? That’s more than the car was worth at the time of repossession. The original loan was $15,890—so they defaulted after paying off, at most, about $4,000. And now they owe almost as much as the car originally cost. That’s like returning a rental tuxedo with a stain and getting billed for the entire Savile Row workshop.

Here’s where it gets juicy: Dorcas wasn’t the driver. She wasn’t even the primary borrower. She was the guarantor. That means she signed to say, “I trust this person with my credit.” And now she’s on the hook for a debt she didn’t create, on a car she likely never drove, because Micah couldn’t keep up with payments on a truck that probably cost more in repairs than it was worth. Is that fair? Legally, yes. Morally? That’s a whole other courtroom.

And let’s talk about that repossession. The credit union says they recovered the vehicle and sold it “in a commercially reasonable manner.” But who decided what’s “commercially reasonable” for an 18-year-old Tundra with 200,000 miles? Was it sold at auction? To a junkyard? Did it still run? Did it have all four tires? The filing doesn’t say. But if the sale price was way below market value, Dorcas and Micah might have a shot at arguing the deficiency isn’t their fault. But so far? Crickets. No countersuit. No explanation. Just silence.

So what’s our take? The most absurd part isn’t the amount. It’s that anyone thought a 2006 Tundra was worth $15,890 in 2022. That’s not a car loan—that’s an act of financial performance art. And Dorcas? She’s the real victim here. She co-signed, probably to help someone she cared about, and now she’s facing a judgment that could wreck her credit for years. Meanwhile, the credit union? They’ve got their lawyers, their forms, and their “commercially reasonable” sale. They’re not mad. They’re just accounting.

We’re rooting for transparency. For someone to stand up in court and say, “Wait—how much did you actually get for that truck?” And maybe, just maybe, for Dorcas to walk away with her credit intact. But let’s be real: this isn’t a story about justice. It’s a story about what happens when you sign your name to someone else’s dream machine—and the machine turns into a financial dumpster fire.

Stay tuned. Next week: a man sues his neighbor for $200 because his dog ate a garden gnome. True story. Probably.

NOTICE: Federal law provides important protections to members of the Armed Forces and their dependents relating to extensions of consumer credit. In general, the cost of consumer credit to a member of the Armed Forces and his or her dependent may not exceed an annual percentage rate of 36 percent.

However, with regard to this loan, we still reserve our statutory lien rights and any resulting rights to set-off or administrative freeze under federal or state law, which gives us the right to apply the sums in the Secured Account or any other account(s) you have with us to satisfy your obligations under this loan. Any contract terms in your loan, security, or membership agreements that contradict the above with regard to this loan are hereby deleted. 3. This loan is not subject to mandatory arbitration and therefore any reference to mandatory arbitration in this Loan Agreement and Security Agreement shall not apply to this loan. 4.

IN THESE AGREEMENTS, THE WORDS "I," "ME," "MY" AND "MINE" MEAN ALL THOSE NAMED AS BORROWERS. THE WORDS "YOU," "YOUR" AND "YOURS" MEAN THE CREDIT UNION. LOAN AGREEMENT Promise to Pay/Finance Charges: For value received, I promise to pay, at your office, all amounts due. All payments shall be made pursuant to the disclosure statement on page 1 of this document. I understand that the finance charge and total of payments shown on page 1 of this document are based on the assumption that all installment payments will be made on the scheduled due dates. If I fail to pay any installment by the time it is due, I will pay additional interest on the overdue amount. Allocation of Payments and Additional Payments: Payments and credits shall be applied in the following order: collection costs; late fees; any amounts past due; any fees or charges owing, including any fees or premiums for additional products purchased; accrued interest or finance charges; unpaid principal balance. Payments made in addition to regularly scheduled payments shall be applied in the same order. Unpaid interest is paid by later payments and is not added to my unpaid principal balance. Late Charges: If I make a late payment, I agree to pay a late charge if one is disclosed on page 1 of this document. Borrower Responsibility: I promise to notify you of any change in my name, address or employment. I promise not to apply for a loan if I know there is a reasonable probability that I will be unable to repay my obligation according to the terms of the credit extension. I promise to inform you of any new information which relates to my ability to repay my obligation. I promise not to submit false or inaccurate information or willfully conceal information regarding my creditworthiness, credit standing, or credit capacity. Delay In Enforcement: You may delay enforcing any of your rights under this agreement without losing them. Irregular Payments: You may accept late payments or partial payments, even though marked "payment in full," without losing any of your rights under this agreement. Co-Borrowers: If I am signing this agreement as a co-borrower, I agree to be equally responsible with the borrower, but you may sue either or both of us. You do not have to notify me that this agreement has not been paid. You may extend the terms of payment and release any security without notifying or releasing me from responsibility on this agreement. Co-Signor or Guarantor: If I am signing this agreement as co-signer or guarantor, I waive any right I may have to require the Credit Union to attempt collection of this account from the principal borrower first. I agree to be equally and severally responsible with the principal borrower for all advances and charges on this account. I understand that the Credit Union may elect to collect on this account from me first in the event of any default. I understand that all the terms of this agreement apply to me as well as the principal borrower and I waive any requirement that I be notified of changes in the terms of this agreement. I also agree to abide by the terms of the Notice to Co-signer and Guaranty Agreement. Governing Law: These agreements shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma. If I have entered into a mandatory arbitration agreement in connection with this loan: if any provisions within this Agreement pertaining to jurisdiction and venue are inconsistent with the arbitration agreement, the arbitration agreement will govern. Change in Terms: The terms of this Closed-end Note, Disclosure, Loan & Security Agreement, including any fees disclosed, are subject to change without prior notice, subject to applicable law. SECURITY AGREEMENT Security Interest: By signing this agreement and receiving the benefits of my loan described on page 1, I grant the Credit Union a security interest in the property described on page 1 of this document, and all present and future shares I have in any account in the Credit Union in which I have an interest. The security interest includes all increases, substitutions and additions to the secured property, proceeds from any insurance on the secured property and all earnings received from the secured property. The security interest also includes all accessions. Accessions are things which are attached to or installed in the property now or in the future. The security interest also includes any replacements for the property which I buy within 10 days of the loan or any extensions, renewals or refinancing of the loan. Lien on Accounts and Multiple Rights: I understand that, in addition to a security interest in tangible goods or property in connection with this loan, the Credit Union has multiple rights in my share or deposit accounts with the Credit Union and that, by signing this Agreement, I agree to the following: (1) CONTRACTUAL PLEDGE OF SHARES: I GRANT A SECURITY INTEREST IN, AND PLEDGE ALL MY SHARES AND DEPOSITS IN THE CREDIT UNION, INCLUDING FUTURE ADDITIONS, AS SECURITY FOR THIS LOAN. (2) Statutory Liens and Right to Set Off: I specifically agree that federal and state law, including but not limited to 12 USC 1757 and 12 CFR 701.39 and Oklahoma Statutes Title 6, section 2006(12), gives you a statutory lien and a commonlaw right to "set off" my obligations if I default by applying the funds in any of my Credit Union accounts as set forth in subparagraph (4) below. (3) Administrative Freeze: I specifically agree that you have the right to place an administrative freeze on any of my joint or individual accounts and that such action shall not violate 11 USC 362 or other applicable law. (4) Pursuant to any or all of the above-mentioned rights, if I default or fail to pay any obligation owed to you, you may prohibit me from withdrawing all shares or deposits in any and all of my individual or joint accounts and are authorized to apply all of those shares and deposits to the payment of all sums due at the time of default, including costs of collection and reasonable attorney's fees. You may exercise these rights without any legal proceeding, court proceeding or any notice to any owner of the account(s) affected hereunder or otherwise affected under this Agreement. These rights apply to all accounts regardless of the source of the funds or any owner's contributions, and apply to all obligations to the credit union, now or in the future, whether direct, indirect, contingent or secondary. However, no lien, right to impress such lien, or pledge of shares shall apply to any shares held in an "Individual Retirement Account" or "Keogh Plan". Cross-Collateralization: I hereby grant a security interest to the Credit Union in all assets and collateral separately pledged to the Credit Union as collateral for this, or any loan transaction. I further agree that any security interest granted to secure this loan shall also secure any other indebtedness that I may now have or may have in the future with the Credit Union INCLUDING ALL DEBTS INCURRED BY CREDIT CARDS AND OVERDRAFTS. To further secure the payment of this loan and all other indebtedness to the Credit Union now owed or hereafter owed by me, whether or not said indebtedness was intended to be secured, I grant a security interest to the Credit Union in all assets of whatever nature and kind that are pledged hereby as collateral for this loan. This cross collateral provision does not include my dwelling or non-purchase money household goods. BORROWER'S NAME Micah J Amukaya IN THESE AGREEMENTS, THE WORDS "I," "ME," "MY" AND "MINE" MEAN ALL THOSE NAMED AS BORROWERS. THE WORDS "YOU," "YOUR" AND "YOURS" MEAN THE CREDIT UNION. Release of Lien: You will not release any lien on any collateral under this Note if I am delinquent on, or in default on, any other loan I have with you. For example, if I am in default on a line of credit, you will not release your lien on a vehicle loan, even if the vehicle loan is current or paid in full. Protection of the Collateral: I agree that: (1) I will not change the location of, give away, sell, encumber, lease, rent, transfer or otherwise dispose of the collateral unless I have the credit union's prior written consent. (2) I will use the loan proceeds to purchase the collateral or that I have good title to the collateral, free of all security interests, liens or encumbrances except that given to the credit union and except for any interests of a non-borrower owner of which I have informed the credit union. I warrant that title to the collateral shall be registered in the name only of such borrower(s) who sign this agreement and application for such title shall request that a notice of lien in favor of the Credit Union shall be endorsed upon the certificate of title. (3) I will not use or permit anyone to use the property in violation of this agreement or any statute, regulation or ordinance, or any policy of insurance covering the collateral and further agree to preserve, maintain and keep the property in good condition and housed in suitable shelter. (4) I will promptly pay all taxes, assessments, liens or other encumbrances against or attached to the collateral either now or in the future. If I fail to do so, the Credit Union may, but does not have to, pay these amounts. If the Credit Union pays these amounts, the amounts will be added to the loan, the monthly payment will increase to cover these amounts, and finance charges will accrue at the contract rate. (5) I will do all that is necessary to help the credit union obtain, perfect, and protect its security interest in the collateral, including but not limited to, executing all endorsements, assignments, financing statements, or other writings that are required to protect the credit union's security interest and priority in the collateral. (6) I will promptly produce the collateral for the credit union's inspection at any reasonable time in any reasonable manner upon demand by the credit union. Additional Collateral: Should you feel at any time that the collateral presented has diminished in value, or for any reason feel that additional collateral is required, I agree to assign to you within ten (10) days whatever additional collateral you feel is necessary to protect yourself against possible loss. Perfection of Security Interest; Increase in Rate; Fee; Default: If I fail to perfect your lien, you may take the necessary steps to do so and charge me a filing fee. This fee will be in the amount charged by the state and will be added to my loan balance. If you are unable to perfect your lien on the collateral pledged for any loan, or the value of the collateral deteriorates significantly, that loan may be treated as a signature loan under a line of credit for the purpose of determining the Interest Rate, and the Interest Rate shall increase to the highest signature loan rate in effect at that time. My minimum monthly payment shall also increase accordingly. You may also consider the loan to be in default and can call the loan immediately due and payable, in which case I must pay the entire amount due in one lump sum. The loan while in default will bear interest at the highest rate allowed by law. Default; Remedies. Credit Union may declare default and exercise its remedies as follows: The following provision applies to Oklahoma borrowers: I understand I am in default (1) if I fail to make any payment on time; (2) in the event of my death; (3) in the event of my insolvency or the filing of any request for relief under the bankruptcy code by or against me; (4) if I am the subject of any legal process that seeks to attach my Credit Union account, any of my property or rights; (5) if I have given the Credit Union false or inaccurate information in obtaining a loan or any other Credit Union service; (6) if I do any act or fail to do any act that the Credit Union believes endangers the collateral, if any, or my ability to repay what I owe, including, but not limited to, leaving my current employment; (7) if I break any promise I have made under this or any other agreement with the Credit Union; (8) if I use the collateral in any illegal activity; and (9) if I fail to obtain or maintain the required property insurance, or if I fail to pay all taxes when due. In the event of default, I understand that the decision to take action is the sole discretion of the Credit Union and that the failure to act on one default will not stop action on another. I further agree that the Credit Union does not have to provide me advance notice before taking action on any default, unless required to do so by applicable law. If I am in default, the Credit Union may require that I deliver the collateral to it at a time and place of its choosing. I agree that the Credit Union can take possession of the collateral without judicial process, and I authorize a right of entry for that purpose and said repossession may occur without giving me advance notice except when notice is expressly required by applicable law. This agreement, the Uniform Commercial Code, and other applicable law authorize the Credit Union to take various actions; and the Credit Union may rely on any or all of those sources. The Credit Union may also file suit to recover the collateral and/or collect what I owe. If the Credit Union incurs any expenses in taking these actions, or in protecting its rights to the collateral, I agree to reimburse the Credit Union and pay all costs of collection, including court cost and attorney fees. If the Credit Union repossesses the collateral, I promise to also pay for the actual and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Credit Union in connection with the repossession or foreclosure, including costs of storing, reconditioning, and reselling the collateral. The Credit Union is not responsible for any personal property left in the collateral; however, you will make a good faith effort to return my property. In the event of sale of collateral I shall be responsible for any deficiency and pay such deficiency on demand. Any disposition of the collateral will be in accordance with the procedures set by the Uniform Commercial Code. No waiver by the Credit Union of any default shall operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion. All rights of the Credit Union hereunder shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns. The following provision applies to borrowers in Idaho, Kansas, and Maine:I will be in default if (1) I do not make a payment of the required amount when due; or (2) you believe the prospect of payment, performance, or realization on any property given as security is significantly impaired. The following provision applies to borrowers in Wisconsin: I shall be in default under this Agreement if any of the following occur: (a) If an amount exceeding one (1) full payment due under this Agreement is more than ten (10) days late or if the first or last payment due under this Agreement is more than forty (40) days late; OR (b) I breach any term or condition of this Agreement, which breach materially impairs my ability to pay amounts when due or materially impairs the condition, value, or protection of your rights to or in any collateral securing this transaction. The following provision applies to all other borrowers: I shall be considered in default if any of the following occur: (1) if I break any promise made under this Loan Agreement or under the Security Agreement; or (2) if I do not use the money you loaned me for the purpose stated in my application; or (3) if you should, in good faith, believe that prospect of payment, performance or realization of the collateral, if any, is impaired; or (4) if I die; or (5) if I file a petition in bankruptcy, insolvency, or receivership or am put involuntarily into such proceedings; or (6) if the collateral, if any, given as security for this loan is lost, damaged or destroyed, or if it is levied against, attached, garnished, or seized for any reason under any authority; or (7) if I do not pay on time any of my current or future debts to you; or (8) if anyone is in default of any security agreement given in connection with any loan under this Note; or (9) If I make any false or misleading statements in any credit application or update of credit information; or (10) I am in default of any other loan or security agreement I have with the Credit Union; or (11) I use the Note for any illegal purpose or transaction as determined by applicable law. If I default, you may, at your option, declare this loan immediately due and payable, and I must immediately pay to you at that time the total unpaid balance, as well as the Finance Charge to date, any late charges and costs of collection permitted under law, including reasonable attorney's fees. Costs of Collection: I shall pay all costs incurred by you in collecting any amount I owe or in enforcing or protecting your rights. Costs of collection include, but are not limited to, collection agency fees, repossession fees, appraisals, environmental site assessments, and casualty insurance. The following applies to all borrowers except Wisconsin borrowers: Costs of collection also include reasonable attorney's fees for any action taken by an attorney who is not your salaried employee in order to collect this loan or preserve or protect your rights and remedies, including, without limitation, pre-suit demands for payment, pre-suit mediation or settlement negotiations, investigation and assessment of your rights, participation in bankruptcy cases, matters, and proceedings (including, without limitation, filing proofs of claim, pursuing reaffirmation agreements, attending meetings of creditors, and pursuing complaints, motions, and objections that relate in any way to the credit union's collateral or right to payment), collateral disposition, non-bankruptcy suits and/or administrative actions, and appeals. For Alabama borrowers: attorneys fees after default shall not exceed 15% of the unpaid debt, or such higher amount as a court may allow.

THE WORDS "YOU," "YOUR" AND "YOURS" MEAN THE CREDIT UNION. The following provision applies to borrowers in Colorado, District of Columbia, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nebraska, and West Virginia: Once I have defaulted, and after the expiration of any right I may have under applicable state law to cure my default, you can demand immediate payment of the entire unpaid balance of the loan without giving me advance notice. The principal balance in default shall bear interest at the contract rate, or a default rate if one has been disclosed to me, or another rate if required by applicable law. The following provisions applies to borrowers in Wisconsin: Right to Cure Default: If I am in default under this Agreement, you must give a notice of default to me pursuant to Wisconsin Statutes sec. 425.104 - 425.105. I shall have fifteen (15) calendar days from the date the notice is mailed to me to cure the default. In the event of an uncured default, you shall have all the rights and remedies for default provided under the Wisconsin Consumer Act, Uniform Commercial Code, or other applicable law, including, but not limited to, the right to repossess the collateral. You may waive any default without waiving any other subsequent or prior default by me. No Right To Cure: Pursuant to Wis. Stat. Sec. 425.105(3), I shall not have the right to cure a default if the following occur twice during the preceding twelve (12) months: (a) I was in default on the closed-end note; (b) You gave me notice of the right to cure such previous default in accordance with Wis.Stat.Sec. 425.104; and (c) I cured the previous default. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to restrict your ability to exercise your rights under the Wisconsin Consumer Act, Uniform Commercial Code, or other applicable law, including, but not limited to, the right to repossess the collateral. The following provision applies to borrowers in all other states: Once I have defaulted, you may, at your option, declare all amounts under the Note immediately due and payable, and I must immediately pay to you at that time the total unpaid balance, as well as the Finance Charge to date, any late charges and costs of collection permitted under law, including reasonable attorney's fees. The principal balance in default shall bear interest at the contract rate. Entire Balance Due: If I default, all of my obligations under this contract are due immediately without receiving any advance notice. I waive presentment, demand, protest or notice of protest and any notice that the Credit Union is demanding payment in full of the entire outstanding balance under the contract because of default or for any other reason. If the Credit Union accepts any payment of my debt under this contract after having demanded payment on the entire unpaid balance due or after the Credit Union has sued me, this is not considered a waiver or forgiveness of any default in payments or any other default on my part. The Credit Union can delay enforcing any of its rights without losing them. Attorney-in-Fact: You are hereby appointed as my Attorney-in-Fact to perform any acts which you feel are necessary to protect the collateral and the security interest which this agreement creates. Owners of Collateral: A non-borrower owner of the collateral agrees to abide by the terms of the Security Agreement, and understands that the collateral may be seized and sold if the borrower defaults on the loan. Additional Advances: Any additional advances made by you for the payment of taxes or assessments or liens of any kind, or premiums on insurance and the interest owing thereon or any other advance necessary to perfect or protect your security interest shall also be secured by this agreement. Such amounts shall be added to my loan balance and my minimum payment due shall be increased or my loan term extended accordingly. PROPERTY INSURANCE; LENDER-PLACED INSURANCE - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY (a) My requirement to maintain property insurance. I am required to carry insurance to protect my interest and your interest in the collateral securing this loan. The insurance: • Must protect against any loss by fire or theft, and collision and comprehensive coverage on motor vehicles and other property pledged as security on this loan. • Must (i) be in an amount and type sufficient to repair the collateral to its existing condition prior to the loss, and/or to replace the collateral with comparable or like property, minus depreciation, if it is damaged or lost; or (ii) be in an amount and type as you might otherwise inform me that you require. • Must have a maximum deductible as set forth by you. • Must be maintained in force for as long as the loan is outstanding. • Must name you as loss payee. You must receive the loss payee endorsement within 30 days of my loan date. These requirements are solely in your discretion and you may change any of these requirements at any time for any reason. The insurance may be obtained by any insurer of my choice that is acceptable to you. (b) Lender-placed property insurance. Please read carefully: • If I fail to maintain insurance satisfying the requirements set forth above, or if I fail to provide you proof of such coverage, you may, but do not have to, obtain insurance to protect your interest (not mine) in the property. • The total cost of lender-placed insurance will be added to the loan balance. The total cost of this insurance includes, but is not limited to, the premium, any administrative costs you incur, any commissions that may be earned, and other reasonable expenses related to my failure to maintain insurance. This cost will be paid by me either on demand, or by increasing my periodic payment, or by extending the loan term. • Whether you obtain insurance, and the amount and types of coverage that you may obtain, is solely in your discretion. You may obtain this insurance from anyone you want, including an affiliate of yours, and such affiliate may earn a commission on the coverage. • The insurance placed by you is without benefit to me personally, and is primarily for your protection. It may not adequately protect my interest in the collateral or any personal property contained in the collateral, and will not satisfy any mandatory liability or financial responsibility requirements under state law. • Coverage obtained by you may be considerably more expensive than coverage I could obtain on my own and may be different than previous policies I may have had or policies that I may prefer. • Any insurance placed by you will be effective as of the date my policy lapsed or, if I never obtained insurance, the date of the loan. Nothing in this agreement is intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights or status to me with respect to any agreements between you and your insurer or its agent. (c) How to remove lender-placed property insurance. I may have the lender-placed coverage cancelled at any time by providing evidence to you that I have purchased insurance coverage satisfying the requirements set forth above. If I do so, I will receive a refund of any unearned premiums and finance charges on the lender-placed coverages and my loan balance will be adjusted accordingly. (d) Other. I assign you the right to receive and endorse any insurance proceeds check, to apply those proceeds to the sums I owe, and I direct any insurer to pay those proceeds directly to you. I further authorize you or your representative to obtain the necessary information for verification of adequate coverage. You, or your affiliates, may receive compensation or reimbursement of expenses related to any insurance premiums added by you. (e) Default. If I fail to maintain insurance as set forth above, I will be in default of my loan. You may either place your own insurance on the collateral as explained above, or you can declare me in default and take all remedies set forth in my loan or security agreement or available to you under applicable law, including calling the loan immediately due.
