-226Subchapter VI—Extinction of Liens § 4071. Lien as accessory to act whose performance it secures A lien is to be deemed accessory to the act for the performance of which it is a security, whether any person is bound for the performance or not, and is extinguishable in like manner with any other accessory obligation. § 4072. Extinction by sale or conversion The sale of any property on which there is a lien, in satisfaction of the claim secured thereby or in case of personal property, its wrongful conversion by the person holding the lien, extinguishes the lien thereon. § 4073. Extinction under statute of limitations A lien is extinguished by the lapse of the time within which, under Title 5, an action may be brought upon the principal obligation. § 4074. Partial performance The partial performance of an act secured by a li^a does not extinguish the lien upon any part of the property subject thereto, even if it is divisible. § 4075. Restoration of property as extinguishing lien dependent upon possession The voluntary restoration of property to its owner by the holder of a lien thereon dependent upon possession extinguishes the lien as to the property, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, and extinguishes it, notwithstanding any such agreement, as to creditors of the owner and persons subsequently acquiring a title to the property, or a lien thereon, in good faith, and for value.
