Rights of the pledgor in the case of imminent spoilage

(1) If there is the concern that the pledged item will spoil or that a substantial reduction of its value will occur, the pledgor may demand the return of the pledged item in return for the provision of some other security; the provision of security by sureties is excluded.

(2) The pledgee is to notify the pledgor of the imminent spoilage without undue delay, unless notification is inadvisable.
