Such notice shall be sent to the owner of the mortgaged property at the address of the property or at such other address that is known to the mortgagee, to a mortgagor at the mortgagor's address specified in the mortgage or to such other place as may have been directed by the mortgagor in writing in accordance with the mortgage, and to any person or entity having a lien of record subordinate to the mortgage that the mortgagee seeks to foreclose at the address shown on such lien.

The notice shall: (a) identify the mortgage by the parties thereto, the date and recording date thereof, and any recorded amendments and modifications thereof; (b) (1) if there is a monetary default, set forth the amounts due, the date due and any late charges and default interest; (2) if there is a non-monetary default, set forth the basis thereof; (c) state that the mortgagee has (1) made demand to cure a default if such demand is required under the mortgage or the note, bond or other obligation secured thereby, which default has not been cured within the applicable cure period, and (2) declared the entire obligation secured by the mortgage to be immediately due and payable by written notice to the mortgagor; (d) set forth the outstanding principal balance declared due and payable, together with the amount of interest accrued thereon and the approximate amount of other sums secured by the mortgage; (e) state that the interest in the mortgaged property of the mortgagor and all persons or entities having an interest in the mortgaged property subordinate to the mortgage, who are served with a copy of the notice of intention to foreclose and any other notices required under this article, will be terminated by foreclosure of the mortgage by power of sale pursuant to this article and that the mortgagor, owner, or such other person or entity having an interest in the mortgaged property subordinate to the mortgage, may thereupon be evicted by judicial process; (f) set forth the right of the mortgagor, or any person or entity having an interest in the mortgaged property subordinate to the mortgage, to any surplus moneys out of the proceeds of sale in accordance with the provisions of section fourteen hundred eighteen of this article; and, if a deficiency judgment is permitted, that the mortgagee shall have the right to seek a deficiency judgment pursuant to section fourteen hundred nineteen of this article; (g) set forth the rights and remedies, as specified in section fourteen hundred twenty-one of this article, which are available to the mortgagor, or any person or entity claiming under the mortgagor or having an interest in or lien upon the mortgaged property which is subordinate to the mortgage being foreclosed; and (h) where the United States of America, the state of New York, or any municipality, agency or instrumentality of any of them, is entitled to notice, the notice shall specify with particularity the nature of the interest or lien of the governmental entity. The non-judicial proceeding under this article shall be deemed to be an action, for purposes of statutes conferring jurisdiction over governmental entities. 3. Affidavits of service or mailing upon each of the persons or entities entitled to and served with the notice of intention to foreclose shall be filed prior to the date of sale under the index number of the non-judicial proceeding with the clerk of the county in which the sale is to take place. * NB Repealed July 1, 2009
