Verbatim from the Royal Gazette / Office of the Council of State
English translation
It is presumed that a time of commencement or ending is fixed for the benefit of the debtor, unless it appears from the tenor of the instrument or from the circumstances of the case that it was intended for the benefit of the creditor, or of both parties. The benefit of such a time may be waived, but this will not affect any benefit which would accrue there from to the other party.
