(a) General rule.--To convert convertible real estate or add additional real estate pursuant to an option reserved under section 5206 (relating to contents of declaration for flexible planned communities), the declarant shall prepare, execute and record an amendment to the declaration under section 5219 (relating to amendment of declaration) and comply with section 5210 (relating to plats and plans). The declarant is the unit owner of any units thereby created. The amendment to the declaration must assign an identifying number to each unit formed in the convertible or additional real estate and reallocate votes in the association and common expense liabilities. The amendment must describe or delineate any limited common elements formed out of the convertible or additional real estate, showing or designating the unit to which each is allocated to the extent required by section 5209 (relating to limited common elements).

(b) Creations within additional real estate.--Convertible or withdrawable real estate may be created within any additional real estate added to the planned community if the amendment adding that real estate includes all matters required by section 5205 (relating to contents of declaration; all planned communities) or 5206, as the case may be, and the plat includes all matters required by section 5210. This subsection does not extend the time limit on conversion or contraction of a flexible planned community imposed by the declaration under section 5206.

(c) Liability for expenses and right to income.--Until conversion occurs or the period during which conversion may occur expires, whichever occurs first, the declarant alone is liable for real estate taxes assessed against convertible real estate and all other expenses in connection with that real estate. No other unit owner and no other portion of the planned community is subject to a claim for payment of those taxes or expenses. Unless the declaration provides otherwise, any income or proceeds from convertible real estate inure to the declarant.
