Section 1 Pledge of Movables
Article 63
Pledge of movables as used in this Law means that the debtor or a third party transfers the possession of his movables to the creditor as a security for debt. If the debtor defaults, the creditor shall, in accordance with the provisions of this Law, be entitled to convert the property into money as payment of the debt or enjoy priority of having his claim satisfied with the proceeds of auction^{3 or sale of the pledged property. The debtor or the third party mentioned in the preceding paragraph shall be the pledgor, the creditor shall be the pledgee, and the movables transferred shall be the pledged property.}

Article 64
A pledgor and a pledgee shall conclude a pledge contract in writing. A pledge contract shall become effective upon the delivery of the pledged property to the possession of the pledgee.

Article 65
A pledge contract shall include the following particulars: the kind and amount of the principal debt secured; the time limit for the debtor to perform his obligation; the name, quantity, quality and condition of the pledged property; the scope of the guaranty of pledge; the time for delivering the pledged property; and other matters the parties deem necessary to include in the contract. If a pledge contract does not contain all the particulars specified^{4 in the preceding paragraph, the omissions5 may be added by amendment6.}

Article 66
A pledgor and a pledgee may not stipulate^{7 in the contract that ownership of the pledged property shall be transferred to the pledgee if the obligation is not discharged at its maturity8.}

Article 69
The pledgee shall have the obligation to maintain the pledged property in good condition. The pledgee shall be civilly liable for the loss or destruction of or damage to the pledged property resulting from his negligence^{10 in storage.

Article 70
Where there is a possibility for the pledged property to perish or for its value to obviously decline to a point sufficient to impair^{11 the rights of the pledgee, the pledgee may demand that the pledgor provide additional security in like amount. If the pledgor refuses to provide the additional security, the pledgee may auction or sell the pledged property, and conclude an agreement with the pledgor that the proceeds from the auction or sale shall be used to pay in advance the debt secured or be deposited with a third party as agreed upon with the pledgor.}

Article 71
Where the debtor performs his obligation at its maturity, or where the pledgor pays, prior to maturity, the debt secured, the pledgee shall return the pledged property. If the pledgee is not paid at the maturity of the obligation, he may conclude an agreement with the pledgor that the pledged property be converted into money in order to pay the debt, or he may auction or sell the said property according to law. Where the money converted from the pledged property or the proceeds from auction or sale exceed the debt secured, the balance shall be paid to the pledgor. Where the money or the proceeds do not cover the whole debt secured, the difference shall be paid by the debtor.

Article 72
The third party who secures the obligation of the debtor shall have the right of recourse against the debtor after the pledgee's enforcement of the right of the pledge.
