(2) In the event of a borrower's cancellation of the guaranteed asset protection waiver or early termination of the finance agreement, after the agreement has been in effect beyond the free-look period, the borrower may be entitled to a refund of any unearned portion of the purchase price of the waiver unless the waiver provides otherwise. The creditor or the creditor's designee shall calculate the amount of the refund using a method at least as favorable to the borrower as the actuarial method.

(4) Any cancellation refund under this section may be applied by the creditor or the creditor's designee as a reduction of the amount owed under the finance agreement unless the borrower can show that the finance agreement has been paid in full.
