Cancellation or alteration of the encumbered right

(1) A right subject to usufruct may be cancelled by legal transaction only with the approval of the usufructuary. Approval is to be declared to the person in whose favour it is given; it is irrevocable. The provision of section 876 sentence 3 remains unaffected.

(2) The same applies in the case of an alteration of the right, to the extent that this adversely affects the usufruct.
