RULE §85.402Recordkeeping

        (VIII) action taken to close the pawn transaction (i.e., renewed, redeemed, voided, forfeited, or seized);

        (IX) if applicable, date and dollar amount of each memorandum of extension payment; and

        (X) if applicable, dollar amount paid to redeem or renew the pawn transaction (i.e., amount paid itemized to show the allocation between the amount financed, pawn service charge, additional daily charges, and the lost pawn ticket statement).

      (ii) Active or open transactions. The loan disposition report may contain active or open pawn transactions. If a pawn transaction is active or open when the loan disposition report is printed or electronically imaged, the closing date should be left blank and the action taken to close the pawn transaction should be shown as "active" or "open."

    (D) Timing. If the licensee is not manually recording the payment information on the hard cards pursuant to subsection (f) of this section, the loan disposition report and supplemental loan disposition report must be printed or stored as an electronically imaged or archived record every month.

      (i) Loan disposition report. The loan disposition report must capture all pawn transactions, including active or open, that were made for a particular calendar month. The report must be produced four or five months after the completion of the reporting period, depending upon the length of the grace period. If a 30-day grace period is offered, the report must contain information for pawn transactions made four months prior. If a 60-day grace period is offered, the report must contain information for pawn transactions made five months prior. As an example, in May 2015, the loan disposition report must be printed or electronically imaged to include all pawn transactions that were made during the calendar month of December 2014 (60-day grace period) or January 2015 (30-day grace period).

      (ii) Supplemental loan disposition report. The supplemental loan disposition report must be printed to capture all pawn transactions that were closed or have had a final disposition (i.e., renewed, redeemed, voided, forfeited, or seized) in the previous calendar month. As an example, in May 2015, the supplemental loan disposition report must include all pawn transactions that were closed in the previous month of April 2015 (i.e., April 1, 2015 to April 30, 2015).

  (3) Disaster recovery plan. A pawnbroker must maintain a sufficient disaster recovery plan to ensure that pawn and purchase ticket information is not destroyed, lost, or damaged.

  (4) Access by OCCC personnel. The pawnbroker must provide reasonable access to a computer workstation capable of accessing and retrieving pawn and purchase ticket information throughout the examination or investigation conducted by the commissioner's representatives. A pawnbroker may provide the commissioner or the commissioner's representatives the same information in physical form as an alternative to reasonable access to a computer workstation.

(h) Military Lending Act records.

  (1) A licensee must maintain any record that the licensee obtains under the Department of Defense's Military Lending Act Rule, 32 C.F.R. §232.5, regarding whether a consumer is a covered borrower. The licensee must maintain the record for at least two years after the last recorded event, as provided by subsection (b).

  (2) A licensee must maintain any mandatory disclosure to a covered borrower under the Military Lending Act Rule, 32 C.F.R. §232.6. The licensee must maintain the disclosure for at least two years after the last recorded event, as provided by subsection (b).
