(1) the date the taxes were paid;
(2) the amount of taxes paid; and

Notice may be delivered, mailed, or transmitted by any usual means of communication.
(c) Notwithstanding the requirements in subsection (a), a mortgage lender that provides notice at least annually to a borrower in the manner provided in subsection (b) of a means of communication for the borrower to access the information set forth in subsection (a) by telephone, facsimile, e-mail, Internet access, or other means of communication, is deemed to be in compliance with subsection (a).
