(b) If, after the 60-day period described by Section 349.201(a)(1) but before the time an obligor gives written notice of the violation or files an action alleging the violation, the violation is corrected as to the obligor by refunding the amount of the excess and giving to the obligor written notice of the violation as provided by Section 349.204, the liability of any person to that obligor is limited for each transaction to an amount that does not exceed:
(1) the time price differential or interest contracted for, charged, or received, not to exceed $2,000; and
(2) reasonable attorney's fees set by the court.
