Notification under Section 309(B) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289) of Singapore
(the SFA) ­ the Trustee has determined, and hereby notifies all relevant persons (as defined in Section
309A(1) of the SFA), that the Certificates are prescribed capital markets products (as defined in the
Securities and Futures (Capital Markets Products) Regulations 2018 of Singapore) and Excluded
Investment Products (as defined in MAS Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale of Investment Products
and MAS Notice FAA-N16: Notice on Recommendations on Investment Products).
MIFID II product governance / professional investors and ECPS only target market - there are no
manufacturers for the purposes of MiFID II. Any person offering, selling or recommending the
Certificates (a MIFID II distributor) should consider (i) the target market for the Certificates to be
eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II, and (ii) all channels
for distribution of the Certificates to eligible counterparties and professional clients to be appropriate.
However, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market
assessment in respect of the Certificates (by either adopting or refining the target market) and
determining appropriate distribution channels.
UK MIFIR product governance / professional investors and ECPs only target market: Solely for
the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect
of the Certificates has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Certificates is only eligible
counterparties, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook, and professional
clients, as defined in Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the
European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the EUWA); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the
Certificates to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently
offering, selling or recommending the Certificates (a distributor) should take into consideration the
manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product
Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook is responsible for undertaking its own target market
assessment in respect of the Certificates (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market
assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
PRIIPS regulation / prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors: The Certificates are not intended
to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made
available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the EEA). For these purposes, a retail
investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1)
of Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial








instruments, as amended (MiFID II); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97
(the Insurance Distribution Directive), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client
as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II.
Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the PRIIPs
Regulation) for offering or selling the Certificates or otherwise making them available to retail
investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Certificates or otherwise
making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
UK PRIIPs regulation / prohibition of sales to UK retail investors: The Certificates are not intended
to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made
available to any retail investor in the UK. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is
one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565
as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the
provisions of the FSMA, and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement the Insurance
Distribution Directive, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point
(8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the
EUWA.
Consequently no key information document required by the PRIIPs Regulation as it forms part of
domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the UK PRIIPs Regulation) for offering or selling the
Certificates or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and
therefore offering or selling the Certificates or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in
the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
The distribution of this Prospectus and the offering, sale and delivery of the Certificates in certain
jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this Prospectus comes are
required by the Joint Lead Managers, the Trustee and the Bank to inform themselves about, and
to observe, any such restrictions.










AHLI UNITED PERPETUAL SUKUK LTD.
(incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability in the Cayman Islands)
U.S.$600,000,000 Tier 1 Capital Certificates
The U.S.$600,000,000 Tier 1 Capital Certificates (the Certificates) of Ahli United Perpetual Sukuk Ltd. (in its capacity as issuer and in its capacity as trustee, as applicable, the Trustee) will be constituted by
a declaration of trust (the Declaration of Trust) dated 17 June 2021 (the Issue Date) entered into between the Trustee, Ahli United Bank K.S.C.P. (the Bank) and Citibank, N.A., London Branch as the
delegate of the Trustee (the Delegate). The Certificates confer on the holders of the Certificates from time to time (the Certificateholders) the conditional right to receive certain payments (as more particularly
described herein) arising from an undivided ownership interest in the assets of a trust declared by the Trustee pursuant to the Declaration of Trust (the Trust) over the Trust Assets (as defined herein) and
the Trustee will hold such Trust Assets upon trust absolutely for the Certificateholders pro rata according to the face amount of Certificates held by each Certificateholder in accordance with the Declaration
of Trust and the terms and conditions of the Certificates (the Conditions).
If a Non-Viability Event (as defined herein) occurs, a Write-down (as defined herein) shall occur on the relevant Non-Viability Event Write-down Date (as defined herein), as more particularly described in
Condition 11 (Write-down at the Point of Non-Viability). In such circumstances, the Certificates shall be cancelled (in the case of a Write-down in whole) or written-down in part on a pro rata basis (in the
case of a Write-down in part) by the Trustee in accordance with the prevailing Capital Regulations (as defined herein) and the Certificateholders' rights to the Trust Assets (including the Trustee's rights,
title, interest and benefit, present and future, in, to and under the assets from time to time constituting the Mudaraba Assets) shall automatically be deemed to be irrevocably and unconditionally cancelled or
written-down in the same manner as the Certificates. See "Risk Factors - Certificateholders' right to receive payment of the face amount of the Certificates and the Certificateholders' right to any profit will
be permanently cancelled (in whole) or permanently written-down (in part) upon the occurrence of a Non-Viability Event".
Periodic Distribution Amounts (as defined herein) shall be payable subject to and in accordance with the Conditions on the outstanding face amount of the Certificates from (and including) the Issue Date to
(but excluding) 17 December 2026 (the First Reset Date) at a rate of 3.875 per cent. per annum from amounts of Rab-al-Maal Mudaraba Profit and Rab-al-Maal Final Mudaraba Profit (as further described
below). If the Certificates are not redeemed or purchased and cancelled in accordance with the Conditions on or prior to the First Reset Date, Periodic Distribution Amounts shall be payable from (and including)
the First Reset Date subject to and in accordance with the Conditions at a fixed rate, to be reset on the First Reset Date and every five years thereafter, equal to the Relevant Five Year Reset Rate (as defined in
the Conditions) plus a margin of 3.011 per cent. per annum. Periodic Distribution Amounts will, if payable pursuant to the Conditions, subject to the requirements in relation to payments of the Relevant
Rab-al-Maal Profit Amount in accordance with Condition 8.1 (Non-Payment Event) and the right of the Trustee and the Bank to cancel payments of the Relevant Rab-al-Maal Profit pursuant to Condition
8.2 (Non-Payment Election), be payable semi-annually in arrear on 17 June and 17 December in each year, commencing 17 December 2021. Payments on the Certificates will be made free and clear of and
without withholding, retention or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature, imposed, levied, collected, withheld
or assessed by or on behalf of any Relevant Jurisdiction (as defined herein) (the Taxes) to the extent described under Condition 13 (Taxation).
The Trustee may elect, and in certain circumstances shall be required, not to make any Relevant Rab-al-Maal Profit payment falling due on the Certificates. In such circumstances, the Certificateholders shall
not receive Periodic Distribution Amounts on their investment in the Certificates. Any Relevant Rab-al-Maal Profit Amounts and Periodic Distribution Amounts not paid as aforesaid will not accumulate
and any holder of the Certificates shall not have any claim in respect thereof.
The payment obligations of the Bank under the Mudaraba Agreement (as defined herein) (including all payments which are the equivalent of principal and profit) (the Relevant Obligations) will rank (i)
subordinate and junior to all Senior Obligations but not further or otherwise; (ii) pari passu with all other Pari Passu Obligations; and (iii) rank in priority to all Junior Obligations (as defined in the Conditions).
The Certificates are perpetual securities and have no fixed or final redemption date. Unless the Certificates have previously been redeemed or purchased and cancelled as provided in the Conditions, the Bank
may (acting in its sole discretion) instruct the Trustee to, whereupon the Trustee shall, redeem all but not some only of the Certificates on 17 June 2026 (the First Call Date and on any date thereafter up to and
including the First Reset Date, or on any Periodic Distribution Date thereafter in accordance with Condition 10.1(b) (Trustee's Call Option). In addition, upon the occurrence of a Tax Event or a Capital
Event (each as defined in the Conditions), the Certificates may be redeemed in whole (but not in part), or the terms thereof may be varied (by the Trustee (but only upon the instructions of the Bank (acting in
its sole discretion)), in each case at any time on or after the Issue Date in accordance with Conditions 10.1(c) (Redemption or Variation due to Taxation) and 10.1(d) (Redemption or Variation for Capital
Event). Any redemption or variation is subject to the conditions described in Condition 10.1 (Redemption and variation).

obligations".
This Prospectus has been approved by the Central Bank of Ireland (the Central Bank of Ireland) as competent authority under Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the Prospectus Regulation). This Prospectus
constitutes a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Regulation. The Central Bank of Ireland only approves this Prospectus as meeting the standards of completeness, comprehensibility and consistency
imposed by the Prospectus Regulation. Such approval should not be considered as an endorsement of the Trustee, the Bank or the quality of the Certificates that are the subject of this Prospectus and investors
should make their own assessment as to the suitably of investing in the Certificates. Such approval relates only to the Certificates which are to be admitted to trading on a regulated market for the purposes of the Markets
in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2014/65/EU) (as amended, MiFID II) (each such market being a MiFID Regulated Market) and/or which are to be offered to the public in any Member State of the European
Economic Area (the EEA). Application has been made to the Irish Stock Exchange plc trading as Euronext Dublin (Euronext Dublin) for the Certificates to be admitted to its official list (the Official List) and

has also been made to the DFSA for the Certificates to be admitted to the official list of securities maintained by the DFSA (the DFSA Official List) and to Nasdaq Dubai for such Certificates to be admit ed to trading on Nasdaq Dubai.
References in this Prospectus to the Certificates being listed (and all related references) shall mean that such Certificates have been (a) admitted to listing on the Official List and the DFSA Official List and
(b) admitted to trading on the Regulated Market (or, as the case may be, another MiFID Regulated Market) and on Nasdaq Dubai.
Amounts payable under the Certificates (if applicable), following the First Reset Date, will be calculated by reference to rates for U.S. Treasury securities which are published by the U.S. Federal Reserve
System. As of the date of this Prospectus, the U.S. Department of Treasury does not appear on the register of administrators and benchmarks established and maintained by ESMA pursuant to Article 36 of
Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 (the Benchmarks Regulation). As far as the Trustee is aware, the U.S. Department of Treasury does not fall within the scope of the Benchmarks Regulation by virtue of article 2
of the Benchmarks Regulation.
The Certificates will be represented by interests in a global certificate in registered form (the Global Certificate) deposited on or before the Issue Date with, and registered in the name of a nominee for, a
common depositary (the Common Depositary) for, Euroclear Bank SA/NV (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, S.A. (Clearstream, Luxembourg). Interests in the Global Certificate will be shown on,
and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. Definitive Certificates evidencing holdings of interests in the Certificates will be issued
in exchange for interests in the Global Certificate only in certain limited circumstances described herein.
This Prospectus will be valid for a year from 15 June 2021. The obligation to supplement this Prospectus in the event of significant new factors, material mistakes or material inaccuracies will not apply when
this Prospectus is no longer valid. For this purpose, "valid" means valid for admissions to trading on a regulated market by or with the consent of the Trustee and the obligation to supplement this Prospectus

jurisdiction of the United States. Subject to certain exceptions, the Certificates may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation

Lead Managers, the Delegate or any Agent undertakes to review the financial condition or affairs of the

or the Agents, or any of their directors, affiliates, advisers or agents, accepts any liability in relation to the

The Certificates may not be a suitable investment for all investors. Each potential investor in Certificates
must determine the suitability of its investment in light of its own circumstances. In particular, each
potential investor should, either on its own or with the help of its financial and other professional
advisers:
(i)
have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Certificates,
the merits and risks of investing in the Certificates and the information contained in this
Prospectus;
(ii)
have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its
particular financial situation, an investment in the Certificates and the impact the Certificates
will have on its overall investment portfolio;
(iii)
have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the
Certificates, including where the currency of payment is different from the potential investor's
currency;
(iv)
understand thoroughly the terms of the Certificates and be familiar with the behaviour of any
relevant indices and financial markets; and
(v)
be able to evaluate possible scenarios for economic and other factors that may affect its
investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks.


iii






The Certificates are complex financial instruments and are high risk and are not a suitable or appropriate
investment for all investors (see, in particular, "MIFID II Product Governance / Professional Investors
and ECPs only Target Market", "PRIIPs Regulation / Prohibition of Sales to Retail Investors in the
EEA" and "PRIIPs Regulation/Prohibition of Sales to Retail Investors in the United Kingdom" below).
In some jurisdictions, regulatory authorities have adopted or published laws, regulations or guidance
with respect to the offer or sale of securities similar to the Certificates. There are risks inherent in the
holding of the Certificates, including the risks in relation to their subordination and the circumstances
in which holders of the Certificates may suffer loss as a result of holding the Certificates. See "Risk
Factors" for a discussion of certain considerations to be taken into account in connection with an
investment in the Certificates. Sophisticated institutional investors generally do not purchase complex
financial instruments as stand-alone investments. They purchase complex financial instruments as a way
to reduce risk or enhance yield with an understood, measured, appropriate addition of risk to their overall
portfolios. A potential investor should not invest in the Certificates unless it has the expertise (either
alone or with the help of a financial adviser) to evaluate how the Certificates will perform under changing
conditions, the resulting effects on the value of the Certificates and the impact this investment will have
on the potential investor's overall investment portfolio.
Legal investment considerations may restrict certain investments. The investment activities of certain
investors are subject to investment laws and regulations, or review or regulation by certain authorities.
Each potential investor should consult its legal advisers to determine whether and to what extent: (a)
the Certificates are legal investments for it; (b) the Certificates can be used as collateral for various
types of financing; and (c) other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of any Certificates.
Financial institutions should consult their legal advisers or the appropriate regulators to determine the
appropriate treatment of Certificates under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.
STABILISATION
In connection with the issue of the Certificates, Citigroup Global Markets Limited (the Stabilisation
Manager) (or persons acting on behalf of the Stabilisation Manager) may effect transactions with a
view to supporting the market price of the Certificates at a level higher than that which might otherwise
prevail, but in so doing, the Stabilisation Manager shall act as principal and not as agent of the Trustee
or the Bank. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilisation Manager (or persons acting on behalf
of the Stabilisation Manager) will undertake stabilisation action. Any stabilisation action may begin on
or after the Issue Date and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier
of 30 days after the Issue Date and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the Certificates. Any
stabilisation action conducted by the Stabilisation Manager (or persons acting on behalf of the
Stabilisation Manager) must be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws and rules.
