2. Deposit Transaction

By opening the Account and depositing money into the Account, the Bank promises the Customer to
purchase Commodity from the Customer under Murabahah contract on deferred payment basis.
Commodity means any commodity (e.g. Crude Palm Oil) traded at Bursa Suq Al-Sila (BSAS) or any
metal traded at the London Metal Exchange (LME) excluding gold and silver, or any other commodity/
asset in each case provided that such commodity/ asset is acceptable to the Bank and Shariah compliant.
Based on Shariah contract of Wakalah, the Customer appoints the Bank to act as the Customers agent for
the purchase and sale of the Commodity (Commodity Purchasing and Selling Agent) in accordance with
the terms and conditions herein contained. The Bank will only act as the Customers agent and will not
assume, or be deemed to have assumed, any additional obligations to, or to have any special relationship
with the Customer other than those for which specific provision is made in the terms and conditions herein.


2.1 As the Commodity Purchasing and Selling Agent, the Bank shall, during the tenure of the deposit
and any subsequent deposit placement or any renewal thereof, have the following power and
authority:


a) to perform and execute all acts with respect to the purchase of the Commodity at Deposit
Amount on cash basis (Commodity Purchase Transaction(s)) through purchase agreements,
certificates and other instruments as the Customer could do himself/itself and to negotiate with
commodity suppliers or traders (Commodity Trader(s)) on behalf of the Customer in relation
thereto; and


b) to sell the Commodity on deferred payment to the Bank at Deposit Amount plus profit (Sale
Price (Murabahah)) on behalf of the Customer and to perform and execute all acts in relation
thereto (Commodity Murabahah Transaction(s)).

of auto deposit renewal with profit amount, Deposit Amount refers to the original deposit amount deposited
into the Account plus the profit amount earned in previous deposit placement (if any).


2.2 The Bank will, in performing its obligations and activities in the Commodity Purchase Transaction(s)
and/or Commodity Murabahah Transaction(s) look after the best interest of the Customer and act in

Customer of his/its obligations herein. The indemnity given hereunder shall survive termination of the
agency relationship and any sums payable in relation thereto shall not be subject to any deduction
whether by way of set off counter claim or otherwise.


3. Payment of the Sale Price (Murabahah)
Formula for computation of the profit and Sale Price (Murabahah) are as follows:

Profit = P x R x T/365*
Where:
P = Deposit Amount
R = Profit Rate (%) given upon the placement
T = Tenure (number of days, from placement date to maturity date)
*Denominator = To follow the markets day-count convention
For auto-renewal of the deposit, the profit rate is to be based on the Banks prevailing profit rate at the
point of renewal.


b. Calculation of the Sale Price (Murabahah):
Sale Price (Murabahah) = Deposit Amount + Profit (total profit for the whole placement tenure)
Illustration:
Deposit Amount RM100,000.00
Profit Rate 3.00%
Tenure 3 months
No.of Days 91
Placement date 01/04/2014
Maturity date 30/06/2014
Profit RM747.95
Sale Price (Murabahah) RM100,747.95
Realisation of the Sale Price (Murabahah) is subject to the completion of the Commodity Murabahah
Transaction(s) and to the provision under Clause 4.2 herein.


3.1 Both the Bank and the Customer acknowledge that under the Commodity Murabahah Transaction(s),
the Banks payment obligation is to pay the Customer the Sale Price (Murabahah).

monthly as the case may be.
