to be released


Explanation:
After searching many sources, I did not find the verb, "aushaften." However, "Haft" means custody or confinement, "aus" means out of, or from. Out of confinement = to be released. Therefore your translation would be:" On the 30th of June, 1999 granted credit in the amount of --- was released by the board."
I hope this helps.

Explanation:
The haften here is from the concept of being responsible for something, I would think. Using Eva's definition, I'd say:
"On 30.06.99, the board had outstanding debts of $X". Note that the credits had been granted TO the board.
