any refund due in the event of a borrower's cancellation of the guaranteed
asset protection waiver agreement or early termination of the finance agreement

request to cancel to the creditor or the creditor's designee within ninety
days after the occurrence of the event terminating the finance agreement;
(7) The methodology
for calculating any refund of the unearned purchase price of the guaranteed

motor vehicle sale or lease shall be conditioned upon the purchase of the
guaranteed asset protection waiver;

upon the assignment, sale, or transfer of such finance agreement by the creditor
or the creditor's designee; and
