(a) The unit owners may remove a property from the provisions of this chapter by recording an instrument to that effect, containing the signature of ninety per cent of the unit owners, provided the holders of all liens affecting any of the units consent thereto or agree, in either case by recorded instruments, that their liens be transferred to an undivided interest in the property.

(b) Upon removal of the property from the provisions of this chapter, the unit owners shall own the property as tenants in common with undivided interests equal to the percentage of undivided interests in the common elements owned by each such owner immediately prior to the recordation of the instrument referred to in subsection (a) of this section.  As long as such tenancy in common continues, each unit owner shall have an exclusive right of occupancy of that portion of such property which formerly constituted his or her unit.

(c) Upon removal of the property from the provisions of this chapter, any rights the unit owners may have to the assets of the unit owners' association shall be in proportion to their respective undivided interests in the common elements immediately prior to the recordation of the instrument referred to in subsection (a) of this section.

(d) The removal provided for in this section shall not bar the subsequent resubmission of the property to the provisions of this chapter, by an instrument signed by the same percentage of unit owners and mortgagees as specified in subsection (a) of this section for removal.
