(A)use, commingle, or dispose of all or part of the collateral, including returned or repossessed goods;
(B)collect, compromise, enforce, or otherwise deal with collateral;
(C)accept the return of collateral or make repossessions; or
(D)use, commingle, or dispose of proceeds; or
(2)the secured party fails to require the debtor to account for proceeds or replace collateral.
