No Severability. No Unit Owner may or shall execute or make any deed, mortgage or other conveyance of his Unit without including in such conveyance the Appurtenant Interests (specifically including without limitation any Beach Rights and rights in recreational facilities which may arise as a result of membership in the Association of Unit Owners), it being the intention hereof that there be no severance of Unit Ownership from Appurtenant Interests and no retention of beach rights or other rights or interests except as the same may devolve from then current Unit Ownership and Membership in the Association of Unit Owners.
