It | contains a special rule for calculating a deficiency or surplus | in a complying disposition that yields a price that is | "significantly below the range of proceeds that a complying | disposition to a person other than the secured party, a person | related to the secured party, or a secondary obligor would have | brought." |

It is important to make clear the conduct and | procedures that are commercially reasonable and to provide a | secured party with the means of obtaining, by court order or | negotiation with a creditors' committee or a representative of | creditors, advance approval of a proposed method of enforcement | as commercially reasonable. This section contains rules that | assist in that determination and provides for advance approval in | appropriate situations. However, none of the specific methods of | disposition specified in subsection (b) [Maine cite subsection | (2)] is required or exclusive. |
