§12A-2A-221.
   
                        CASUALTY TO IDENTIFIED GOODS
                                      
   If a lease contract requires goods identified when the lease contract
   is made, and the goods suffer casualty without fault of the lessee,
   the lessor or the supplier before delivery, or the goods suffer
   casualty before risk of loss passes to the lessee pursuant to the
   lease agreement or Section 29 of this act, then:
   
   (a) if the loss is total, the lease contract is avoided; and
   
   (b) if the loss is partial or the goods have so deteriorated as to no
   longer conform to the lease contract, the lessee may nevertheless
   demand inspection and at his option either treat the lease contract as
   avoided or, except in a finance lease that is not a consumer lease,
   accept the goods with due allowance from the rent payable for the
   balance of the lease term for the deterioration or the deficiency in
   quantity but without further right against the lessor.
