Article (10) permits a mortgagor to sell or donate a mortgaged unit only if they obtain the Mortgagee's approval. The purchaser must also agree to take over all obligations of the mortgagor under the original contract.

This ensures that the lender's security interest is not compromised when ownership of the underlying asset changes hands.
