Interest Waiver

"I need a Hong Kong law Interest Waiver agreement for a corporate borrower in the manufacturing sector, waiving interest payments from January 1, 2025, to June 30, 2025, while preserving the principal repayment obligations and existing security arrangements."

Document background
The Interest Waiver agreement is commonly used in Hong Kong's financial markets during periods of financial hardship or as part of debt restructuring arrangements. It provides a formal mechanism for lenders to temporarily or permanently waive their right to receive interest payments while maintaining the enforceability of the underlying debt obligation. The document is particularly relevant in the context of Hong Kong's sophisticated financial services sector and must comply with local banking regulations and financial services requirements. The Interest Waiver agreement typically includes details of the original loan, the specific interest being waived, any conditions attached to the waiver, and provisions ensuring the continued validity of any security arrangements. It's frequently used during economic downturns, corporate restructurings, or when borrowers face temporary liquidity challenges.
