1. If a solidary debtor pays more than his share in the debt, his right of recourse against the remaining debtors for the excess payment shall be limited to the share of each of them, even if the payer assumes the position of the creditor by way of subrogation. 2. The shares of solidary debtors shall be equal with respect to their claims of recourse against one another, unless an agreement or a legal provision stipulates otherwise. If only one debtor benefits from the debt, said debtor shall bear the debt in full against the other debtors. 3. If a solidary debtor is found to be insolvent, the debtor who pays the debt shall, along with the solvent debtors, bear the effects of such insolvency, each to the extent of his share.
