(a) If a lien against two or more apartments becomes effective, the apartment owners of the separate apartments may remove their apartments and the percentage of undivided interest in the common areas and facilities appurtenant to the apartments from the lien by payment of the fractional or proportional amounts attributable to each of the apartments affected. The individual payments are computed by reference to the percentage appearing on the declaration.
