[Disclose all risk factors. In case the issuer is bank, the risk factor shall cover all conditions imposed by the relevant regulator which have an adverse impact on the sukuk holders]
i) The profit payment to Sukuk Holders will be subject to the condition that ………..;
j) the Issue may be called by the Issuer after -------years from the date of Issuance (either partially or in full), subject to --------- approval;
k) the Issuer may permanently convert the Sukuk (either partially or in full) into common shares at its own discretion (in case of ----------) or at the discretion of ---------;
a) Lock-in Clause & Loss Absorbency Clauses, [in case of bank]
Loss Absorption Features at Point of Non - Viability [in case of bank]
b) Security and Subordination
a) Instrument Liquidity
b) Market Interest Rate
Market Interest rates and the Sukuk value, in general, carry an inverse relationship; as interest rates fall, the price of instruments in the market place generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the price of instruments will tend to fall. There is a risk that any increase in KIBOR may adversely affect the profit yield on the Sukuk Certificates and hence lower down its market price.
There is no guarantee that market prices will always be favorable to the investors.
a) Strategic Risk
Strategic risk arises due to wrong assumptions in strategic decision making or the failure to react correctly to long-term changes in strategic parameters.
b) Shariah Non-compliance Risk
Shariah non-compliance risk is the risk that arises from Issuer’s failure to comply with the Shariah rules and principles prescribed and / or the Shariah Board of the Issuer. It remains the most important operational risk for an -----[Issuer]. Compliance of Shariah guidelines must permeate throughout the organization and its adherence should be reflected in the products and activities.
Credit risk arises from the potential that an obligor is either unwilling to perform on an obligation or its ability to perform such obligations is impaired resulting in economic loss to the Issuer. This credit risk arises mainly from both direct financing activities as well as contingent liabilities.
Liquidity risk is the potential loss to the Issuer arising from its inability either to meet its obligations (financial) or to fund increases in assets as they fall due without incurring unacceptable costs or losses.
Liquidity risk is defined as the potential loss arising from the Issuer’s inability to meet in an orderly way its contractual obligations when due. Liquidity risk arises in the general funding of the Issuer’s activities and in the management of its assets.
Market risk is defined as the risk of losses in on-and-off balance sheet positions arising from movements in market prices e.g. fluctuations in values in tradable, marketable or leasable assets. The risks relate to the current and future volatility of market values of specific assets and of foreign exchange rates and benchmark yields.
Yield / Profit rate risk includes all material yield risk positions of the Issuer taking into account all repricing and maturity data. It includes current balances and contractual yield rates; the -----[Issuer] understands that its Islamic financing and related assets shall be repriced as per their respective contracts.
Currency risk is the risk of loss arising from the fluctuations of exchange rates.
Equity position includes strategic investments and investment in equities for generating revenue in short term.
Country Risk can be defined as the risk of adverse impact of certain factors on a country’s specific economic, political and social scenario which affects the ability of the country (or a borrower in that country) to repay its obligations.
Systemic risk is the risk of a total or partial collapse of the financial system. Such a collapse could be due to technical factors or market driven (psychological reasons).
TO THE BEST OF OUR KNOWLEDGE IT IS STATED THAT ALL MATERIAL RISK FACTORS HAVE BEEN DISCLOSED IN THIS PARAGRAPH AND THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN CONCEALED IN THIS RESPECT. HOWEVER, THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS, WHICH ARE NOT DISCLOSED HEREIN, THAT ARE NOT PRESENTLY KNOWN TO US OR THAT ARE CURRENTLY DEEMED TO BE LESS SIGNIFICANT, WHICH MAY MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECT THE ISSUER’S BUSINESS, ITS FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND PROSPECTS.

E-IPO is submission of application for subscription of securities electronically through internet, Automated Teller Machines (ATM) and mobile phones. In order to facilitate the public during IPOs, SECP has introduced the concept of e-IPO. The following two systems are available for e-IPOs:
In order to facilitate investors, the Central Depository Company of Pakistan (“CDC”) in collaboration with 1Link (Private) Limited (1Link) has developed a Centralized eIPO System (“CES”) through which applications for subscription of securities offered to the general public can be made electronically/online. CES has been made available in this Initial Public Offering (IPO) and can be accessed through the web link https://eservices.cdcaccess.com.pk. Payment of subscription money can be made through 1LINK’s member banks available for CES, list of which is available on above-mentioned website.
For making application through CES, investors must be registered with CES. Registration with CES is onetime activity, free of cost and can be done under a self-registration process by filling the CES registration form, which is available 24/7 all-round the year. Investors who have valid Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC), International Bank Account Number (IBAN) with any of the commercial bank, email address, mobile phone number and CDS Account (Investor account or sub account) can register themselves with CES.
In addition to the above, CDC has also introduced a new facility in CES through which sub-account holder(s) will request their respective TREC Holders who are Participants in Central Depository System (CDS) to make electronic subscription on their behalf for subscription of securities of a specific company by authorizing (adding the details of) their respective Participant(s) in CES.
Consequently, authorized Participants will electronically subscribe on behalf of their sub-account holder(s) in securities offered through Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) and will also be able to make payment against such electronic subscriptions through all the available channels mentioned on CES only after receiving the subscription amount from the sub-account holder(s). To enable this feature, the CDS Participant may request CDC to activate his ID on the CES portal.
The securities will be credited directly in Investors’ sub-account. In case the sub-account of the investor has been blocked or closed, after the subscription, then securities shall be parked into the CDC’s IPO Facilitation Account and investor can contact CDC for credit of securities in its respective account.
Investors who do not have CDS account can visit www.cdcpakistan.com for information regarding opening CDS account. For further guidance and queries regarding CES and opening of CDS account, investors may contact CDC at phone number: 0800 – 23275 (CDCPL) and e-mail: info@cdcpak.com or Mr. Farooq Ahmed Butt at Phone 111-111-500 and email: farooq_butt@cdcpak.com.
Investors who are registered with CES can submit their applications through the web link www.cdceipo.com 24 hours a day during the subscription period which will close at midnight on April 21, 2020.

[Disclose all risk factors. In case the issuer is bank, the risk factor shall cover all conditions imposed by the relevant regulator which have an adverse impact on the sukuk holders]

m) the Issue may be called by the Issuer after -------years from the date of Issuance (either partially or in full), subject to --------- approval;
n) the Issuer may permanently convert the Sukuk (either partially or in full) into common shares at its own discretion (in case of ----------) or at the discretion of ---------;
Loss Absorption Features at Point of Non - Viability [in case of bank]
Market Interest rates and the Sukuk value, in general, carry an inverse relationship; as interest rates fall, the price of instruments in the market place generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the price of instruments will tend to fall. There is a risk that any increase in KIBOR may adversely affect the profit yield on the Sukuk Certificates and hence lower down its market price.
There is no guarantee that market prices will always be favorable to the investors.
Strategic risk arises due to wrong assumptions in strategic decision making or the failure to react correctly to longterm changes in strategic parameters.
Shariah non-compliance risk is the risk that arises from Issuer’s failure to comply with the Shariah rules and principles prescribed and / or the Shariah Board of the Issuer. It remains the most important operational risk for an -----[Issuer]. Compliance of Shariah guidelines must permeate throughout the organization and its adherence should be reflected in the products and activities.
Credit risk arises from the potential that an obligor is either unwilling to perform on an obligation or its ability to perform such obligations is impaired resulting in economic loss to the Issuer. This credit risk arises mainly from both direct financing activities as well as contingent liabilities.
Liquidity risk is the potential loss to the Issuer arising from its inability either to meet its obligations (financial) or to fund increases in assets as they fall due without incurring unacceptable costs or losses.
Liquidity risk is defined as the potential loss arising from the Issuer’s inability to meet in an orderly way its contractual obligations when due. Liquidity risk arises in the general funding of the Issuer’s activities and in the management of its assets.
a) Market Risk Market risk is defined as the risk of losses in on-and-off balance sheet positions arising from movements in market prices e.g. fluctuations in values in tradable, marketable or leasable assets. The risks relate to the current and future volatility of market values of specific assets and of foreign exchange rates and benchmark yields.
b) Yield / Profit Rate Risk Yield / Profit rate risk includes all material yield risk positions of the Issuer taking into account all repricing and maturity data. It includes current balances and contractual yield rates; the -----[Issuer] understands that its Islamic financing and related assets shall be repriced as per their respective contracts.
c) Foreign Exchange Risk Currency risk is the risk of loss arising from the fluctuations of exchange rates.
d) Equity Position risk Equity position includes strategic investments and investment in equities for generating revenue in short term.
e) Country Risk Country Risk can be defined as the risk of adverse impact of certain factors on a country’s specific economic, political and social scenario which affects the ability of the country (or a borrower in that country) to repay its obligations.
f) Systemic Risk Systemic risk is the risk of a total or partial collapse of the financial system. Such a collapse could be due to technical factors or market driven (psychological reasons).
TO THE BEST OF OUR KNOWLEDGE IT IS STATED THAT ALL MATERIAL RISK FACTORS HAVE BEEN DISCLOSED IN THIS PARAGRAPH AND THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN CONCEALED IN THIS RESPECT. HOWEVER, THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS, WHICH ARE NOT DISCLOSED HEREIN, THAT ARE NOT PRESENTLY KNOWN TO US OR THAT ARE CURRENTLY DEEMED TO BE LESS SIGNIFICANT, WHICH MAY MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECT THE ISSUER’S BUSINESS, ITS FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND PROSPECTS.

E-IPO is submission of application for subscription of securities electronically through internet, Automated Teller Machines (ATM) and mobile phones. In order to facilitate the public during IPOs, SECP has introduced the concept of e-IPO. The following two systems are available for e-IPOs:
In order to facilitate investors, the Central Depository Company of Pakistan (“CDC”) in collaboration with 1Link (Private) Limited (1Link) has developed a Centralized eIPO System (“CES”) through which applications for subscription of securities offered to the general public can be made electronically/online. CES has been made available in this Initial Public Offering (IPO) and can be accessed through the web link https://eservices.cdcaccess.com.pk. Payment of subscription money can be made through 1LINK’s member banks available for CES, list of which is available on above-mentioned website.
For making application through CES, investors must be registered with CES. Registration with CES is onetime activity, free of cost and can be done under a self-registration process by filling the CES registration form, which is available 24/7 all-round the year. Investors who have valid Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC), International Bank Account Number (IBAN) with any of the commercial bank, email address, mobile phone number and CDS Account (Investor account or sub account) can register themselves with CES.
In addition to the above, CDC has also introduced a new facility in CES through which sub-account holder(s) will request their respective TREC Holders who are Participants in Central Depository System (CDS) to make electronic subscription on their behalf for subscription of securities of a specific company by authorizing (adding the details of) their respective Participant(s) in CES.
Consequently, authorized Participants will electronically subscribe on behalf of their sub-account holder(s) in securities offered through Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) and will also be able to make payment against such electronic subscriptions through all the available channels mentioned on CES only after receiving the subscription amount from the sub-account holder(s). To enable this feature, the CDS Participant may request CDC to activate his ID on the CES portal.
The securities will be credited directly in Investors’ sub-account. In case the sub-account of the investor has been blocked or closed, after the subscription, then securities shall be parked into the CDC’s IPO Facilitation Account and investor can contact CDC for credit of securities in its respective account.
Investors who do not have CDS account can visit www.cdcpakistan.com for information regarding opening CDS account. For further guidance and queries regarding CES and opening of CDS account, investors may contact CDC at phone number: 0800 – 23275 (CDCPL) and e-mail: info@cdcpak.com or Mr. Farooq Ahmed Butt at Phone 111-111-500 and email: farooq_butt@cdcpak.com.
Investors who are registered with CES can submit their applications through the web link www.cdceipo.com 24 hours a day during the subscription period which will close at midnight on April 21, 2020.
