The unnamed lenders were pledged shares in LDK Solar as collateral amounting to 52.9% of the company's outstanding share capital.
However, they have agreed not to sell the shares until at least September 2013, LDK Solar says.
The initial credit arrangement between LDK New Energy and the creditors was struck in September 2011.
News of the additional financial breathing space is sure to further raise the hackles of the owners of struggling Western solar manufacturers.
