After default, a secured party may dispose of collateral, but the disposition’s terms must be commercially reasonable.

§9-610. Disposition of collateral after default (a) Disposition after default. After default, a secured party may sell, lease, license, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the collateral in its present condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing.

A disclaimer or modification of warranties in a secured party's disposition of collateral is commercially reasonable. (c) Purchase by secured party. A secured party may purchase collateral: (1) at a public disposition; or (2) at a private disposition only if the collateral is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, or if the secured party, or a person related to the secured party, is obligated by statute to purchase or repurchase the collateral from the debtor. (d) Warranties on disposition. A sale, lease, license, or other disposition includes the warranties which by operation of law accompany a voluntary disposition of property of the kind subject to the contract.
