(1) Be mailed not more than sixty (60) days after the default.
(2) Show the amount of the default, plus interest on that amount for the number of months the person is in default at one-half (1/2) the rate prescribed by IC 6-1.1-37-9(b).
(3) State that the amount of the default, plus interest, is due by the date determined as follows:

(c) Failure to send the notice required by this section does not preclude or otherwise affect the following:
(1) The sale of the property for delinquency as prescribed by IC 6-1.1-24.
