including returned or repossessed goods;
2. Collect, compromise, enforce, or otherwise deal with
collateral;
3. Accept the return of collateral or make repossessions; or
4. Use, commingle, or dispose of proceeds; or
(b) The secured party fails to require the debtor to account for
proceeds or replace collateral.
(2) REQUIREMENTS OF POSSESSION NOT RELAXED. This section does not relax the requirements of possession if attachment,

perfection, or enforcement of a security interest depends upon
possession of the collateral by the secured party.
