Queens Park Rangers Football Club are delighted to announce the full repayment of our £10 million loan from ABC.
The loan was taken out into 2002 in order to assist the Club in coming out of administration.
QPR Holdings Limited was required to repay the existing loan of £10m to ABC Corporation on or before 31 July 2008.
ABC Corporation had an option over the Loftus Road Stadium, which would become exercisable if QPR Holdings Limited failed to repay the loan in full by 31 July 2008.
This loan was repaid in full today. Therefore, the option that ABC Corporation had over the Loftus Road Stadium no longer exists.
QPR Holdings Limited Chairman Flavio Briatore said: "The ABC loan has been of great concern to QPR fans, and has been a noose around the neck of this Football Club for far too long.
"I am delighted that we have now made arrangements to put this saga to an end.
"Building for the future is what is important to me, and the rest of the QPR Board. However, with certain issues it is always necessary to deal with elements from the past, and today we have done this.
"This once again highlights our commitment to this Football Club, and now I am looking forward to working on the continued growth of Queens Park Rangers, both as a Club and as a brand."
