MASTER PROSPECTUS 2008/2009<br />
2 Risk Factors<br />
2.1 Risks <strong>of</strong> Investing in Unit Trusts<br />
All investments carry some form <strong>of</strong> risk. It is important to note that when you invest you should be prepared to accept<br />
a degree <strong>of</strong> risk, as most investments are affected by ever changing market conditions, some <strong>of</strong> which impact<br />
positively and some negatively. Therefore, no matter how experienced a fund manager may be, certain factors, which<br />
will affect <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> investments, may be beyond <strong>the</strong>ir control. So, <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> your investments may go down as<br />
well as up. One should consider <strong>the</strong> following when investing in a unit trust fund: -<br />
Stock or Bond Market Risk<br />
For a unit trust that has stocks or bonds in its portfolio, fluctuations in <strong>the</strong> market performance due to factors such as<br />
fluctuation in interest rates, changes in economic climate, political and social environment that will affect <strong>the</strong> stock or<br />
bond market as a whole, will also affect <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> investment ei<strong>the</strong>r in a positive or negative way.<br />
Individual Stock Risk<br />
The performance <strong>of</strong> a fund that invests in stocks is affected by every individual stock that <strong>the</strong> said fund has invested in.<br />
The volatility <strong>of</strong> prices in each stock will affect <strong>the</strong> fund’s value daily.<br />
Compliance Risk<br />
This is <strong>the</strong> risk that <strong>the</strong> manager and o<strong>the</strong>rs associated with <strong>the</strong> scheme will not follow <strong>the</strong> rules set out in <strong>the</strong><br />
scheme’s constitution and internal policies, or <strong>the</strong> law that governs <strong>the</strong> scheme, or will act fraudulently or dishonestly.<br />
However, this risk is greatly reduced via stringent internal controls and constant cross-departmental checking<br />
employed by <strong>the</strong> manager. In addition, a yearly or any unscheduled internal audit exercise will be conducted to check<br />
any compliance matters that might have been inadvertently overlooked by compliance department. The presence <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> trustee whose duty is to ensure that <strong>the</strong> fund’s investment mandate is complied with will fur<strong>the</strong>r add to <strong>the</strong><br />
reduction <strong>of</strong> such risks.<br />
Inflation Risk<br />
Ideally <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> any investment is to secure returns that are greater than <strong>the</strong> inflation rate. While a fund will<br />
constantly seek to maximise returns and exceed inflation rate, it may occasionally experience losses, which result in<br />
returns that will not keep pace with inflation in <strong>the</strong> short run.<br />
Liquidity Risk<br />
The various securities that are purchased by a fund may encounter liquidity risk. Liquidity risk relates to <strong>the</strong> fund’s<br />
ability to quickly and easily trade, at a reasonable price, in and out <strong>of</strong> positions. Should a fund comprise a security that<br />
has become temporarily or permanently illiquid or difficult to sell, <strong>the</strong> fund manager may need to sell <strong>the</strong> security at a<br />
discount to its fair value, which eventually affects <strong>the</strong> fund’s value.<br />
Management Risk<br />
Performance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund depends on <strong>the</strong> experience, expertise, knowledge and investment techniques <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund<br />
manager. Poor management <strong>of</strong> a fund can cause considerable losses to <strong>the</strong> fund, which in turn may affect <strong>the</strong> capital<br />
invested.<br />
Institutional Risk<br />
The risk that <strong>the</strong> institution, which operates <strong>the</strong> fund, will collapse.<br />
Returns Not Guaranteed<br />
As a result <strong>of</strong> market risks, <strong>the</strong> manager is unable to guarantee <strong>the</strong> distribution payout to unit holders or <strong>the</strong><br />
investment returns <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund. However, <strong>the</strong> manager will take reasonable steps to ensure that this risk is minimized<br />
through a prudent investment approach, which is centred on fundamental stocks and market analysis.<br />
Loan Financing Risk<br />
Investors who take end-financing loans to purchase units in a unit trust fund must be prepared to accept gearing risks<br />
as <strong>the</strong> prices <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> units can go down as well as up. The investor may be required to top up <strong>the</strong> difference in <strong>the</strong><br />
event <strong>the</strong> unit price goes below <strong>the</strong> margin <strong>of</strong> advance.<br />
Interest Rate Risk<br />
Fixed income securities and bonds are particularly sensitive to movements in interest rates. When interest rates rise,<br />
<strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> fixed income securities and bond prices fall and vice versa, thus affecting <strong>the</strong> net asset value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund.<br />
The general interest rate <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> country may affect <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> investment even if <strong>the</strong> fund (e.g. shariah fund) does<br />
not invest in interest bearing instruments.<br />

Credit/Default Risk<br />
Credit risk refers to <strong>the</strong> possibility that <strong>the</strong> issuer <strong>of</strong> a fixed income security or bond may not be able to make interest<br />
payments or repay <strong>the</strong> principal in a timely manner. This will translate to losses that will reduce <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> a fund.<br />
Currency Risk<br />
Currency risk is also known as foreign exchange risk. It is risk associated with investments that are denominated in<br />
foreign currencies. When <strong>the</strong> foreign currencies fluctuate in an unfavorable movement against Ringgit Malaysia, <strong>the</strong><br />
investments will face currency losses in addition to <strong>the</strong> capital gains/losses. This willl lead to a lower net asset value<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund.<br />
Country Risk<br />
The foreign investments <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund may be affected by risks specific to <strong>the</strong> country, which it invests in. Such risks<br />
include changes in a country’s economic fundamentals, social and political stability, currency movements and foreign<br />
policies etc. These may have an adverse impact on <strong>the</strong> prices <strong>of</strong> securities <strong>of</strong> listed companies.<br />
Force Majeure Risk<br />
The risk <strong>of</strong> exposure to force majeure events, where events are not within <strong>the</strong> control <strong>of</strong> Manager. This includes<br />
terrorist attacks, politically instability, natural disasters and spread <strong>of</strong> disease where risks are generally unforeseen<br />
and may have direct impact on <strong>the</strong> business.<br />
2.2 Control <strong>of</strong> Risk<br />
The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager will take reasonable steps to ensure that <strong>the</strong> above potential risks are managed<br />
by:-<br />

(b)<br />
actively monitoring <strong>the</strong> Fund’s asset allocation to ensure minimum impact from any adverse market<br />
movements. They will ensure that <strong>the</strong> equities and fixed income securities are carefully selected through site<br />
visits, fundamental analysis and portfolio diversification. In <strong>the</strong> case <strong>of</strong> fixed income securities, <strong>the</strong> External<br />
<strong>Investment</strong> Manager will also focus on <strong>the</strong> credit quality <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fixed income securities, which must be <strong>of</strong> good<br />
investment grade <strong>of</strong> at least BBB rating or equivalent by RAM, MARC or any o<strong>the</strong>r similar rating establishment.<br />
investing <strong>the</strong> Fund over a wide range <strong>of</strong> equities and fixed income securities <strong>of</strong> different companies which<br />
provides diversification across a number <strong>of</strong> sectors and industries, minimising <strong>the</strong> risk not only <strong>of</strong> any single<br />
company’s securities becoming worthless, but also <strong>of</strong> all holdings suffering uniformly adverse business<br />
conditions. The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager will seek to reduce all <strong>the</strong>se risks associated with <strong>the</strong> Fund by<br />
virtue <strong>of</strong> its experience, <strong>the</strong> analytical process and by structuring a broadly diversified investment pool.<br />
O<strong>the</strong>rs<br />
When deemed appropriate and for <strong>the</strong> benefit <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund, <strong>the</strong> External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager may take temporary<br />
defensive positions in dealing with adverse market, economic, political and o<strong>the</strong>r conditions, that maybe inconsistent<br />
with <strong>the</strong> Fund’s principal strategy .<br />

Potential Risks Associated with AMBDY<br />
Stock or Bond Market Risk<br />
Fluctuations in <strong>the</strong> market performance due to factors such as fluctuation in interest rates, and changes in economic<br />
climate, political and social environment that will affect <strong>the</strong> stock or bond market as a whole, will also affect <strong>the</strong> value<br />
<strong>of</strong> investment ei<strong>the</strong>r in a positive or negative way. The fluctuations can be significant in <strong>the</strong> short-term. This is termed<br />
as market risk. This impact is minimised through <strong>the</strong> investment process <strong>of</strong> portfolio diversification by our External<br />
<strong>Investment</strong> Manager.<br />
Individual Stock Risk<br />
AMBDY is subject to <strong>the</strong> volatility <strong>of</strong> price in <strong>the</strong> share market. The volatility <strong>of</strong> prices in each stock will affect <strong>the</strong><br />
Fund's value daily. The performance <strong>of</strong> individual stocks, which makes up <strong>the</strong> portfolio, will fluctuate according to<br />
changes in <strong>the</strong> market value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> investments. The fluctuations can be significant in <strong>the</strong> short-term. This accounts for<br />
<strong>the</strong> market risk when investing in this Fund. However, this impact is minimised through <strong>the</strong> investment process <strong>of</strong><br />
portfolio diversification by our External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager.<br />
Credit/Default Risk<br />
Islamic bonds/debt securities are subject to credit/issuer/default risk, which is <strong>the</strong> risk that <strong>the</strong> issuer <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Islamic<br />

In <strong>the</strong> event <strong>of</strong> such a default, investors may suffer losses with respect to <strong>the</strong>ir capital invested and income foregone.<br />
To a lesser extent, perception <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> issuer’s ability to repay its debt obligations may impact its credit rating, resulting<br />
in a credit rating downgrade, which may adversely impact <strong>the</strong> Islamic bonds/debt securities’ market value.<br />
Interest Rate Risk<br />
Interest rate risk is inherent in investments <strong>of</strong> a Fund in fixed income securities, especially for bond or fixed income<br />
<strong>Funds</strong>. Interest rate fluctuations may be attributed to market risks that affect <strong>the</strong> level <strong>of</strong> risk free rate. Prices <strong>of</strong> bonds<br />
move inversely with interest rates and would fall in a period <strong>of</strong> rising interest rates. Investors will suffer capital losses<br />
when interest rates rise, resulting in a fall in bond prices. Interest rate risk is particularly high for long-term bonds, and<br />
tends to be lower for short-term bonds. Interest rate risk is a general economic indicator that will impact on <strong>the</strong><br />
management <strong>of</strong> a Fund regardless <strong>of</strong> whe<strong>the</strong>r it is a Shariah Fund or o<strong>the</strong>rwise. It does not in any way suggest that<br />
Shariah <strong>Funds</strong> will invest in fixed income / debt securities, which are not Shariah approved. All <strong>the</strong> investments for<br />
Shariah <strong>Funds</strong> accord with <strong>the</strong> Shariah Principles, <strong>the</strong> latter being derived from <strong>the</strong> sources <strong>of</strong> Islamic jurisprudence<br />
namely <strong>the</strong> Quran, <strong>the</strong> Sunnah, <strong>the</strong> Ijma’ and <strong>the</strong> Qiyas.<br />

MASTER PROSPECTUS 2008/2009<br />
Potential Risks Associated with AMBDA<br />
While attempts are being made to reduce risks encountered by <strong>the</strong> portfolio, investors should be advised that <strong>the</strong><br />
following risks are inherent in such investments: -<br />
Bond Market Risk<br />
This is <strong>the</strong> risk that affects <strong>the</strong> entire market as a whole. It is possible that, at times, <strong>the</strong> entire market may decline,<br />
and no matter how well diversified <strong>the</strong> portfolio is, <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> portfolio will decline as well.<br />
Credit Issuer/Default Risk<br />
Islamic bonds/debt securities are subject to credit/issuer/default risk, which is <strong>the</strong> risk that <strong>the</strong> issuer <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Islamic<br />
bonds/debt securities becomes unable to service any pr<strong>of</strong>it payments or repay <strong>the</strong> principal amount upon redemption.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> event <strong>of</strong> such a default, investors may suffer losses with respect to <strong>the</strong>ir capital invested and income foregone.<br />
To a lesser extent, perception <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> issuer’s ability to repay its debt obligations may impact its credit rating, resulting<br />
in a credit rating downgrade, which may adversely impact <strong>the</strong> Islamic bonds/debt securities’ market value.<br />
Interest Rate Risk<br />
Interest rate risk is inherent in investments <strong>of</strong> a Fund in fixed income securities, especially for bond or fixed income<br />
<strong>Funds</strong>. Interest rate fluctuations may be attributed to market risks that affect <strong>the</strong> level <strong>of</strong> risk free rate. Prices <strong>of</strong> bonds<br />
move inversely with interest rates and would fall in a period <strong>of</strong> rising interest rates.<br />
Investors will suffer capital losses when interest rates rise, resulting in a fall in bond prices. Interest rate risk is<br />
particularly high for long-term bonds, and tends to be lower for short-term bonds. Interest rate risk is a general<br />
economic indicator that will impact on <strong>the</strong> management <strong>of</strong> a Fund regardless <strong>of</strong> whe<strong>the</strong>r it is a Shariah Fund or<br />
o<strong>the</strong>rwise. It does not in any way suggest that Shariah <strong>Funds</strong> will invest in fixed income/debt securities which are not<br />
Shariah approved. All <strong>the</strong> investments for Shariah <strong>Funds</strong> accord with <strong>the</strong> Shariah Principles, <strong>the</strong> latter being derived<br />
from <strong>the</strong> sources <strong>of</strong> Islamic jurisprudence namely <strong>the</strong> Quran, <strong>the</strong> Sunnah, <strong>the</strong> Ijma’ and <strong>the</strong> Qiyas.<br />
Liquidity Risk<br />
This is <strong>the</strong> ability to divest Islamic bonds / debt securities in <strong>the</strong> open market at <strong>the</strong> desired price levels. This is not<br />
applicable if Islamic bonds / debt securities are held till maturity.<br />
Currency Risk<br />
Currency risk is also known as foreign exchange risk. It is risk associated with investments that are denominated in<br />
foreign currencies. When <strong>the</strong> foreign currencies fluctuate in an unfavorable movement against Ringgit Malaysia, <strong>the</strong><br />
investments will face currency losses in addition to <strong>the</strong> capital gains/losses. This will lead to a lower NAV <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund.<br />
Country Risk<br />
The foreign investments <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund may be affected by risks specific to <strong>the</strong> country, which it invests in. Such risks<br />
include changes in a country economic fundamentals, social and political stability, currency movements and foreign<br />
policies etc. These may have an adverse impact on <strong>the</strong> prices <strong>of</strong> securities <strong>of</strong> listed companies.<br />
Non-Shariah Compliance Risk<br />
This is <strong>the</strong> risk <strong>of</strong> securities which were earlier classified as Shariah approved securities being subsequently classified<br />
non-approved securities by <strong>the</strong> Shariah Advisory Council <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> SC due to certain reasons, such as changes in <strong>the</strong><br />
companies’ operations. However, this risk is mitigated by regular review <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund's compliance with <strong>the</strong> list <strong>of</strong><br />
securities approved by <strong>the</strong> Shariah Advisory Council <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> SC and also monthly review by <strong>the</strong> Shariah Committee <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> Manager <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> invested securities.<br />
Control <strong>of</strong> Risk<br />
The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager will take reasonable steps to ensure that <strong>the</strong> above potential risks are managed by:<br />
a) Actively monitoring <strong>the</strong> Fund’s asset allocation to ensure minimum impact from any adverse market movements.<br />

with <strong>the</strong> Fund’s principal strategy.<br />
<strong>Investment</strong> Philosophy<br />
AMBDA is an income-oriented Fund, which invests primarily in a portfolio <strong>of</strong> Islamic debt securities. It is structured to<br />
earn income on a regular basis and to achieve capital appreciation through fluctuations in market yields <strong>of</strong> Islamic<br />
debt securities. The Unit price will change to reflect movements in <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund's assets.<br />
<strong>Investment</strong> Policy/Approach<br />
The Fund invests in Islamic debt securities and money market instruments to meet its objectives <strong>of</strong> providing a steady<br />
stream <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>it income and potential long-term capital gains. Its debt securities investments consist <strong>of</strong> government<br />
bonds, private debt securities, which are rated A3/A- or better by RAM and MARC, and money market instruments,<br />
which will ensure a regular income yield to AMBDA.<br />
<strong>Investment</strong> Strategy / <strong>Investment</strong> Mechanism<br />
Islamic Debt Securities<br />
The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager will invest in a diversified portfolio <strong>of</strong> Islamic debt securities in order to maximise<br />
return within acceptable risk parameters. Diversification is to be done across sectors and issuers (to reduce sector<br />
and credit risk), and across duration (to reduce price risk). Depending on market conditions, <strong>the</strong> External <strong>Investment</strong><br />
Manager will invest in securities that best meet <strong>the</strong> investment objectives. As market conditions may vary from time to<br />
time, <strong>the</strong> External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager will make <strong>the</strong> necessary adjustments.<br />
Preferred investments will be in securities that are undervalued relative to <strong>the</strong>ir ratings, potential credit rating upgrade<br />
candidates, and situational issues with potential for improvement in <strong>the</strong> credit quality. In addition, movements in <strong>the</strong><br />
yield curve may uncover fur<strong>the</strong>r opportunities.<br />
Policy on Listed and Unlisted Securities<br />
AMBDA is to concentrate on investing in quality listed/unlisted debt securities, which provide good yields, for <strong>the</strong><br />
medium to long-term period. The portfolio aimed at preserving <strong>the</strong> principle investment whilst achieving returns better<br />
than <strong>the</strong> prevailing fixed deposit rates on annualised basis, at an acceptable level <strong>of</strong> risk. The portfolio shall invest in<br />
investment grade debt securities that are deemed to be fundamentally sound. In addition, <strong>the</strong> portfolio also<br />
concentrates on securities that have attractive yields and trading opportunities.<br />
The investment process for unlisted securities is similar to <strong>the</strong> process used for listed securities. Decisions will be<br />
made after thorough assessment on companies, using in-house fundamental research supported by external research<br />
and companies' prospectuses. <strong>Investment</strong> shall be made in fixed income securities with minimum credit ratings <strong>of</strong> P2<br />
or MARC2 for short term papers or A3/A- for long term papers by RAM/MARC. The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager<br />
shall undertake to conduct a thorough and rigorous credit assessment <strong>of</strong> potential investments and constant<br />
monitoring <strong>of</strong> current investments. A filtration process is employed for securities selection to ensure superior selection<br />
which compliments <strong>the</strong> objective <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> portfolio. The filtration process includes debt rating, financial ratio analysis,<br />
management quality assessment and structure <strong>of</strong> a particular instrument.<br />
Asset Allocation<br />
Min 50% max 98% in Islamic debt securities<br />
Min 2% max 50% in liquid assets and short-term Islamic money market instruments.<br />
The allocation may be reduced to below <strong>the</strong> minimum levels indicated at <strong>the</strong> discretion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Manager only during<br />
exceptional circumstances. Exceptional circumstances would include situations:<br />
(i)<br />
(ii)<br />

4 <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Process</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />
4.1 <strong>Investment</strong> Philosophy <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />
AMBDY, AMBDI and AMBDA<br />
The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager adopts a combined top-down and bottom-up approach to investing. This ensures<br />
that <strong>the</strong> allocation <strong>of</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> are skewed to <strong>the</strong> financial asset class which is expected to give greater returns in a<br />
particular investment environment. For example, in a rising fixed income rates scenario, equities usually do not<br />
perform well and, <strong>the</strong>refore, exposure to this asset class is reduced. In contrast, when fixed income rates are declining,<br />
exposure to equity is increased to maximise returns.<br />
Primary research supported by secondary research is extensively used in making investment decisions. The outlook<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> economy determines how much exposure is given to each sector <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> economy. Stocks for each sector are<br />
selected based on investment criteria such as Price Earning to Growth ratio (PEG) ratio, management quality,<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>itability, growth prospects, financial strength and dividend yield. Bonds for each sector are selected based on<br />
investment criteria such as yield to maturity bond duration, credit quality, pr<strong>of</strong>itability, growth prospects, financial<br />
strength and structure <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> bond. Technical analysis is also used but only as a guide to time <strong>the</strong> entry into and exit<br />
from <strong>the</strong> investments. This is because sentiment plays a role in determining <strong>the</strong> market direction regardless <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fair<br />
valuation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> market.<br />

4.3 Bases <strong>of</strong> Valuation <strong>of</strong> <strong>Investment</strong>s<br />
AMBDY, AMBDI and AMBDA<br />
The <strong>Funds</strong> shall adopt <strong>the</strong> following bases <strong>of</strong> valuation <strong>of</strong> investments prescribed in <strong>the</strong> Deed and <strong>the</strong> Guidelines.<br />
a) Listed equities and listed fixed income securities will be valued based on <strong>the</strong> last done market price <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
respective exchanges.<br />
b) Listed shares which have been suspended for more than 14 days will be valued at fair value, as determined in<br />
good faith by <strong>the</strong> Manager, based on <strong>the</strong> methods or bases which have been verified by <strong>the</strong> auditor <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />
and approved by <strong>the</strong> Trustees.<br />
c) Unlisted fixed income securities are stated at <strong>the</strong> indicative market value quoted by a Bond Pricing Agency<br />
(“BPA") registered with <strong>the</strong> SC. The difference between <strong>the</strong> indicative market value and <strong>the</strong> cost on statement <strong>of</strong><br />
assets and liabilities date is treated as unrealised gain or loss and is transferred to <strong>the</strong> investment fluctuation<br />
reserve. Where <strong>the</strong>re are no prices quoted by <strong>the</strong> BPA, or when <strong>the</strong> Manager or <strong>the</strong> Trustee is <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> opinion that<br />
<strong>the</strong> prices quoted by <strong>the</strong> BPA is not reflective <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fair value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> investment, <strong>the</strong> Manager and <strong>the</strong> Trustee<br />
will determine <strong>the</strong> fair value in good faith based on all information made available to <strong>the</strong> Manager and <strong>the</strong><br />
Trustee for <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> determining fair value.<br />
d) <strong>Investment</strong>s such as bank bills and deposits placed with banks or o<strong>the</strong>r financial institutions are valued each day<br />
by reference <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> nominal value and <strong>the</strong> accrued interest <strong>the</strong>reon for <strong>the</strong> relevant period.<br />
e) Units in o<strong>the</strong>r collective investment schemes will be valued based on <strong>the</strong> last published net asset value per Unit.<br />
f) <strong>Investment</strong>s in futures contracts will be “marked to market” at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> each trading day.<br />
The External <strong>Investment</strong> Manager calculates <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> investment <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> each Business Day.<br />
4.4 Policy on Gearing and Liquid Assets<br />
There shall be at all times a level <strong>of</strong> liquid assets in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> to pay for <strong>the</strong> redeeming <strong>of</strong> Units <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>. The<br />
<strong>Funds</strong> are not permitted to borrow cash or o<strong>the</strong>r assets (including <strong>the</strong> borrowing <strong>of</strong> securities within <strong>the</strong> meaning <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
SC Guidelines on Securities Borrowing and Lending) in connection with its activities. Except for securities lending<br />
provided by <strong>the</strong> Guidelines, none <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> cash or investments <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> may be lent. Fur<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> may not<br />

Asset Allocation as at April 30, 2008<br />
The decrease in equities was due to <strong>the</strong> disposal <strong>of</strong> stocks, which is to keep <strong>the</strong> equity level between 70 % - 80%, and<br />
this is in line with AMBDY neutral view on <strong>the</strong> medium term outlook and <strong>the</strong> increase in <strong>the</strong> Islamic fixed income and<br />
mudharabah deposit was due to <strong>the</strong> extra liquidity in <strong>the</strong> sales <strong>of</strong> equities.<br />

Sales Charge per Unit = NAV per Unit x sales charge (%)<br />
= RM0.5000 x 6.5%<br />
= RM0.0325000<br />
7.2 Redemption Fee<br />
The Manager does not impose a redemption charge on <strong>the</strong> redemption <strong>of</strong> Units by <strong>the</strong> Unit Holders. Units are<br />
redeemed by <strong>the</strong> Manager at NAV per Unit.<br />
The redemption fee shall be reimbursed to <strong>the</strong> Fund. This is to cover part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> transaction cost that may have<br />
been incurred in disposing <strong>of</strong> instruments from <strong>the</strong> portfolio in order to fulfill redemption requests. Rounding<br />
adjustments shall be consistently applied and shall be carried out only after <strong>the</strong> redemption fee.<br />

7.3 Management Fee<br />
AMBDY<br />
The Manager is entitled to a management fee <strong>of</strong> 1.5% per annum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Net Asset Value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund, (before<br />
deducting <strong>the</strong> annual management fee and Trustee fee for <strong>the</strong> day), calculated and accrued on a daily basis and<br />
payable monthly in arrears.<br />
AMBDI<br />
The Manager is entitled to a management fee as follows, (before deducting <strong>the</strong> annual management fee and<br />
trustee fee for <strong>the</strong> day), calculated and accrued on a daily basis and payable monthly in arrears. The Deed<br />

Asset Classes Annual Management Fee (Yield)<br />
Money markets and Bonds 1.0%<br />
Shares 1.5%<br />
AMBDA<br />
The Manager will be remunerated under a pr<strong>of</strong>it sharing scheme with <strong>the</strong> investors <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund in <strong>the</strong> ratio <strong>of</strong><br />
15:85 <strong>of</strong> Net <strong>Investment</strong> Income <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund. Net investment income is defined as <strong>the</strong> income <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund less<br />
Trustee fee and all permitted or allowable expenses under <strong>the</strong> Deed.<br />
The computation <strong>of</strong> total investment income would be based on realised income, which would include realised<br />
gains on sales <strong>of</strong> investments, share <strong>of</strong> apportionment <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>it on Mudharabah deposits and accrual <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
accreted pr<strong>of</strong>it rates on bonds (or coupons).<br />
If <strong>the</strong> daily net investment income for any valuation day is zero or negative, or while <strong>the</strong> NAV <strong>of</strong> a Unit is less<br />
than <strong>the</strong> Minimum Value, <strong>the</strong> Manager shall not be entitled to any management fee for that day. Daily net<br />
investment income is defined as <strong>the</strong> diference between <strong>the</strong> total net investment income as at <strong>the</strong> valuation day<br />
and <strong>the</strong> total net investment income as at <strong>the</strong> previous valuation day. Minimum Value is taken to mean that <strong>the</strong><br />
Net Asset Value <strong>of</strong> a Unit shall not be less than RM0.4950. If <strong>the</strong>re is any decrease in <strong>the</strong> net asset value as a<br />
result <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> distribution or sub division <strong>of</strong> Unit, <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> Minimum Value shall be adjusted accordingly.<br />
7.4 Trustee Fee<br />
For AMBDY and AMBDI, <strong>the</strong> Trustee is entitled to a fee <strong>of</strong> 0.08% per annum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> NAV <strong>of</strong> each <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>,<br />

annum calculated on a daily basis.<br />
As for AMBDA, <strong>the</strong> Trustee is entitled to a fee at a rate <strong>of</strong> 0.07% per annum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> NAV <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund, (before<br />
deducting annual management fee and trustee fee for <strong>the</strong> day), subject to a minimum fee <strong>of</strong> RM18,000 per<br />
annum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund. The Trustee fee is calculated and accrued on a daily basis and payable monthly in arrears.<br />

7.6 Transfer <strong>of</strong> Units<br />
An administrative fee <strong>of</strong> RM3 is charged per transaction.<br />
7.7 Switching<br />
This facility enables Unit Holders to convert Units <strong>of</strong> one Fund to Units <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r unit trust funds within AMB<br />
Family <strong>of</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>. There is an administrative fee <strong>of</strong> RM25 per transaction. Units switched are transacted at <strong>the</strong><br />

MASTER PROSPECTUS 2008/2009<br />
Note: Distribution Units <strong>of</strong> conventional <strong>Funds</strong> cannot be switched to shariah <strong>Funds</strong>. However, <strong>the</strong> principal<br />
amounts <strong>of</strong> conventional <strong>Funds</strong> are allowed to be switched to shariah <strong>Funds</strong>.<br />
7.8 Management Expense Ratio (MER)<br />
The Management Expense Ratio (MER) provides a measure by which investors can assess and compare <strong>the</strong><br />
outgoings incurred by a Fund. These expenses are deducted from <strong>the</strong> income <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund before it is paid to you.<br />
The MER <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund is <strong>the</strong> ratio <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> sum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fees and <strong>the</strong> recovered expenses <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> unit trust fund to <strong>the</strong><br />
average value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund calculated on a daily basis, i.e.:<br />
Fees <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund recovered expenses<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund<br />

Where:<br />
Fees = All ongoing fees deducted/deductible directly from <strong>the</strong> Fund in respect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
period covered by <strong>the</strong> management expense ratio expressed as a fixed amount<br />
calculated on a daily basis. This would include <strong>the</strong> annual management fee, <strong>the</strong><br />
annual Trustee fee and any o<strong>the</strong>r fees deducted/deductible directly from <strong>the</strong><br />
Fund;<br />

<strong>the</strong> Fund<br />
= All expenses recovered from/charged to <strong>the</strong> Fund as a result <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> expenses<br />
incurred by <strong>the</strong> operation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund, expressed as a fixed amount. This should<br />
not include expenses that would o<strong>the</strong>rwise be incurred by an individual investor<br />
(e.g. brokerage, taxes and levies); and<br />
= The NAV <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund, including net value income less expenses on an accrued<br />
basis, in respect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> period covered by <strong>the</strong> MER, calculated on a daily basis<br />
7.9 Portfolio Turnover Ratio (PTR)<br />
Portfolio turnover <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund is <strong>the</strong> ratio <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> average sum <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> acquisitions and disposals <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund for <strong>the</strong><br />
year to <strong>the</strong> average value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund for <strong>the</strong> year calculated on a daily basis, i.e.:<br />
[Total acquisitions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund for <strong>the</strong> year + Total disposals <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund for <strong>the</strong> year] / 2<br />
Average value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund for <strong>the</strong> year calculated on a daily basis<br />
7.10 Policy on Brokerage Rebates and S<strong>of</strong>t Commissions<br />

8 Purchasing and Redeeming <strong>of</strong> Units<br />
8.1 Single Pricing Policy<br />
The Manager adopts <strong>the</strong> single pricing policy in calculating your investment for and repurchase <strong>of</strong> Units. Single<br />
pricing equates to sales and repurchases quoted and transacted on a single price (i.e. NAV per Unit). The sales<br />
charge is disclosed in Section 7.1.<br />
8.2 Valuation <strong>of</strong> Units<br />
For <strong>Funds</strong> with no foreign investment, <strong>the</strong> valuation <strong>of</strong> Units is based on <strong>the</strong> NAV <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund and is calculated at<br />
<strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Business Day.<br />
According to <strong>the</strong> Single Pricing Policy, <strong>the</strong> selling and redemption prices <strong>of</strong> Units would be at <strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit.<br />
Computation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit at each valuation point is illustrated below:-<br />
Total Assets<br />
Total Liabilities<br />
NAV<br />
Units in Circulation<br />
RM3,009,450,000.00<br />
RM5,850,000.00<br />

= RM3,009,450,000.00 – RM5,850,000.00<br />
= RM3,003,600,000.00<br />
= 6,000,000,000 Units<br />
Net Asset Value per unit = NAV______<br />
Units in circulation<br />
= RM3,003,600,000.00<br />
6,000,000,000<br />
= RM0.5006000000<br />
NAV per Unit, rounded to 4 decimal places<br />
= RM0.5006<br />
Please note <strong>the</strong> above example is for illustration purposes only<br />
8.3 Error in Pricing<br />
If <strong>the</strong>re is any incorrect calculation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit, <strong>the</strong> Manager will take immediate remedial action to<br />
rectify <strong>the</strong> error. The Manager’s remedial action will extend to <strong>the</strong> reimbursement <strong>of</strong> money to <strong>the</strong> Unit Holders if<br />
<strong>the</strong> error is at or above <strong>the</strong> threshold <strong>of</strong> 0.5% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit unless <strong>the</strong> impact on <strong>the</strong> individual Unit<br />
Holder’s account is RM10.00 or less in absolute amount, in which case no reimbursement is required.<br />
8.4 Purchasing and Redeeming <strong>of</strong> Units<br />
When you invest in a Fund you are issued with Units. These Units represent your holding in <strong>the</strong> Fund. The<br />
number <strong>of</strong> Units that you will receive is determined by <strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund. In addition to <strong>the</strong> amount<br />
invested in <strong>the</strong> purchasing <strong>of</strong> Units, a sales charge is also imposed. Similarly, <strong>the</strong> redemption <strong>of</strong> Units is also<br />
determined by <strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit.<br />
8.5 Determination <strong>of</strong> Prices and Charges<br />
The prices <strong>of</strong> Units are computed on a Forward Pricing basis. Similarly, Units <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> are redeemed at <strong>the</strong><br />
NAV per Unit at <strong>the</strong> next valuation point after receipt <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> redemption request and acceptance by <strong>the</strong> Manager.<br />
Consequently, any changes in <strong>the</strong> underlying assets <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> will cause its Unit prices to vary.<br />

8.6 Minimum Balance <strong>of</strong> <strong>Investment</strong><br />
There is no restriction on <strong>the</strong> frequency <strong>of</strong> redemption and Units a Unit Holder can redeem.<br />
AMBDY and AMBDI<br />
For partial redemption, <strong>the</strong> minimum balance <strong>of</strong> Units remaining in <strong>the</strong> account must always be one hundred<br />
(100) Units. The Manager may elect to redeem <strong>the</strong> entire account if <strong>the</strong> effect <strong>the</strong>re<strong>of</strong> would be that <strong>the</strong> Unit<br />
Holder holds less than one hundred (100) units. The Manager will pay <strong>the</strong> net redemption proceeds to <strong>the</strong> Unit<br />
Holder within ten days from <strong>the</strong> receipt <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> request to redeem.<br />
AMBDA<br />
For partial redemption, <strong>the</strong> minimum balance <strong>of</strong> Units remaining in <strong>the</strong> account must always be one thousand<br />
(1,000) Units. The Manager may elect to redeem <strong>the</strong> entire account if <strong>the</strong> effect <strong>the</strong>re<strong>of</strong> would be that <strong>the</strong> Unit<br />
Holder holds less than one thousand (1,000) units. The Manager will pay <strong>the</strong> net redemption proceeds to <strong>the</strong> Unit<br />
Holder within ten (10) days from <strong>the</strong> receipt <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> request to redeem.<br />
8.7 Cooling-Off Right<br />
A Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right refers to <strong>the</strong> right <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Unit Holder to obtain a refund <strong>of</strong> his investment in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />
including <strong>the</strong> sales charge if he so requests within <strong>the</strong> Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Period.<br />
A Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right is only given to an investor, o<strong>the</strong>r than those listed below, who is investing in any fund within<br />
<strong>the</strong> AMB Family <strong>of</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> for <strong>the</strong> first time:<br />
(a)<br />
(b)<br />
(c)<br />
a corporation or institution;<br />
staff <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Manager; and<br />
persons registered to deal in unit trusts for <strong>the</strong> Manager.<br />
The refund for every unit held by <strong>the</strong> investor pursuant to <strong>the</strong> exercise <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right shall be <strong>the</strong> sum <strong>of</strong>:<br />
(a)<br />
<strong>the</strong> NAV per Unit on <strong>the</strong> day <strong>the</strong> Units were first purchased; and<br />

Illustration <strong>of</strong> computation <strong>of</strong> Cooling-Off Proceeds<br />
By way <strong>of</strong> illustration, if a Unit Holder invested RM 10,000 in AMBDY on August 18, 2008, <strong>the</strong> computation will<br />
be as follows:-<br />
(i) Amount invested by investor : RM10,000<br />
(ii) Unit NAV per Unit : RM 0.5000<br />
(iii) Sales charge : 6.5% <strong>of</strong> NAV per Unit<br />

= <strong>Investment</strong> amount<br />
NAV per Unit<br />
= RM10,000<br />
RM0.5000<br />
= 20,000 Units<br />
= <strong>Investment</strong> Units x Sales Charge<br />
= 20,000 x (6.5% x RM0.5000)<br />
= 20,000 x RM0.03250000<br />
= RM650<br />
= <strong>Investment</strong> amount + total sales charge incurred<br />
= RM10,000 + RM650<br />
= RM10,650<br />
On 23.08.2008 (within <strong>the</strong> Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Period) <strong>the</strong> investor decides to exercise his Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right by submitting<br />
a request for a refund <strong>of</strong> his investment. The cooling-<strong>of</strong>f amount/proceeds due to him is computed based on <strong>the</strong><br />
Unit prices and NAV determined at <strong>the</strong> close <strong>of</strong> business on 18.08.2008.<br />
The total amount to be returned to <strong>the</strong> Unit Holder will be:<br />
= Sales charge paid on 18.08.2008 + (NAV per Unit for 18.08.2008 x Units received)<br />
= RM650 + RM10,000<br />
= RM10,650<br />
Please note <strong>the</strong> above example is for illustrative purposes only.<br />
When a Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right is exercised, <strong>the</strong> money will be refunded to <strong>the</strong> applicant within ten (10) days <strong>of</strong> receipt<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> notice <strong>of</strong> exercise <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right by <strong>the</strong> Manager.<br />
The request to exercise your Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right must be submitted ei<strong>the</strong>r to <strong>the</strong> Manager or any Distribution<br />
Branch within six (6) Business Days commencing from <strong>the</strong> date <strong>of</strong> purchase i.e. <strong>the</strong> date on which <strong>the</strong> Manager<br />
receives <strong>the</strong> application form and <strong>the</strong> investment amount.<br />
The Cooling-<strong>of</strong>f Right for EPF investments is available subject to <strong>the</strong> terms and conditions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> EPF. We value<br />

9 Understanding Income Distributions and<br />
Reinvestment Plan<br />
9.1 Distribution Policy<br />
The <strong>Funds</strong> will distribute all or substantially all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir net income and net realised capital gains to <strong>the</strong> Unit<br />
Holders at <strong>the</strong> discretion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Manager. The distribution <strong>of</strong> each Fund will vary depending on <strong>the</strong> performance<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund and prevailing economic conditions.<br />
It is intended that income distribution, if any, which is at <strong>the</strong> discretion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Manager is declared annually and<br />
distributed to all Unit Holders based on units held on entitlement date by way <strong>of</strong> creation <strong>of</strong> additional units at <strong>the</strong><br />
end <strong>of</strong> financial year <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund.<br />
9.2 What Comprises Income Distribution?<br />
Income distribution is made from realised capital gains (net <strong>of</strong> realised losses) and realised income. Capital gains<br />
are realised when investments are disposed <strong>of</strong>f at a pr<strong>of</strong>it.<br />
Realised income is income from deposits, accretion <strong>of</strong> discounts net <strong>of</strong> amortisation <strong>of</strong> premium on fixed income<br />
securities and dividend income from share equities as well as distribution equalisation arising from <strong>the</strong> creation<br />
price <strong>of</strong> Units.<br />
9.3 How is Income Distribution Calculated?<br />
The Unit Holder's income distribution, if any, is calculated in proportion to <strong>the</strong> number <strong>of</strong> Units <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fund held<br />
by <strong>the</strong> Unit Holder as at that date that <strong>the</strong> income distribution is declared, <strong>the</strong> price <strong>of</strong> which shall be based on<br />
<strong>the</strong> NAV, which shall be calculated as at <strong>the</strong> valuation point <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Business Day falling one (1) month after <strong>the</strong><br />
declaration date.<br />
9.4 Auto-Reinvestment <strong>of</strong> Distribution for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />
Your income distributions is automatically reinvested to purchase additional Units in <strong>the</strong> same Fund. No<br />
sales charges is charged on <strong>the</strong> reinvestment <strong>of</strong> income distributions.<br />
Unit Holders will receive distribution by way <strong>of</strong> additional Units at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> financial year. The Unit price <strong>of</strong><br />

TAXATION OF THE TRUSTS OFFERED UNDER THE MASTER PROSPECTUS AND UNITHOLDERS<br />
Dear Sirs,<br />
This letter has been prepared for inclusion in <strong>the</strong> Master Prospectus to be dated 17 September 2008 to 16<br />
September 2009 in connection with <strong>the</strong> <strong>of</strong>fer <strong>of</strong> units in <strong>the</strong> abovementioned trust (“<strong>the</strong> Trust”).<br />
The taxation <strong>of</strong> income for both <strong>the</strong> Trust and <strong>the</strong> Unitholders are subject to <strong>the</strong> provisions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Malaysian<br />
Income Tax Act, 1967 (“<strong>the</strong> Act”). The applicable provisions are contained in Section 61 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Act, which deals<br />
specifically with <strong>the</strong> taxation <strong>of</strong> Trust bodies in Malaysia.<br />
TAXATION OF THE TRUST<br />
The Trust will be regarded as resident for Malaysian tax purposes since <strong>the</strong> Trustees <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Trust are resident in<br />
Malaysia.<br />
The income <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Trust consisting <strong>of</strong> dividends, interest or pr<strong>of</strong>it 1 (o<strong>the</strong>r than interest and pr<strong>of</strong>it 1 which is exempt<br />
from tax) and o<strong>the</strong>r investment income derived from or accruing in Malaysia, after deducting tax allowable<br />
expenses, is liable to Malaysian income tax at <strong>the</strong> rate <strong>of</strong> 26 2 per cent.<br />
Gains on disposal <strong>of</strong> investments by <strong>the</strong> Trust will not be subject to income tax.<br />
_______________________________<br />
1<br />
Section 2(7) <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Malaysian Income Tax Act 1967, provides that any reference to interest shall apply equally to gains or<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>its received and expenses incurred, in lieu <strong>of</strong> interest, in transactions conducted in accordance with <strong>the</strong> principles <strong>of</strong><br />
Shariah. The effect <strong>of</strong> this is that any gains or pr<strong>of</strong>its received and expenses incurred in Shariah transactions will be given <strong>the</strong><br />
same tax treatment as interest similar to a conventional transaction.<br />
2<br />
The corporate tax rate will be reduced to 25 per cent from year <strong>of</strong> assessment 2009 onwards.<br />
AMB Client Services : 03-2034 0800 69
MASTER PROSPECTUS 2008/2009<br />
Tax Credit<br />
With effect from 1 January 2008, Malaysia will introduce <strong>the</strong> one tier system where dividends paid by companies<br />
would not be taxable. However, during <strong>the</strong> transitional period from 1 January 2008 to 31 December 2013,<br />
companies may elect to still be under <strong>the</strong> imputation system where dividends paid are taxed at source and tax<br />
credits available to recipients. Dividends received from companies that are under <strong>the</strong> one-tier system would be<br />
exempted from tax and <strong>the</strong> expenses incurred on such dividends would be disregarded. There will no longer be<br />
any tax refunds available for one tier dividends received.<br />
Dividends received by <strong>the</strong> Trust from companies which have not adopted <strong>the</strong> single tier system, would have<br />
suffered tax deduction at source at 26 2 per cent, unless specific exemptions apply e.g. pioneer dividends. No<br />
fur<strong>the</strong>r tax will be payable by <strong>the</strong> Trust on <strong>the</strong> dividends. However, such tax or part <strong>the</strong>re<strong>of</strong> will be refundable to<br />
<strong>the</strong> Trust if <strong>the</strong> total tax so deducted at source exceeds <strong>the</strong> tax liability <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Trust. Resident companies with<br />
paid-up capital <strong>of</strong> RM2.5 million and below will pay tax at 20 per cent for <strong>the</strong> first RM500,000 chargeable income<br />
with <strong>the</strong> balance taxed at 26 2 per cent. However, dividends from such companies would still have tax credits<br />
attached <strong>of</strong> 26 2 per cent such that <strong>the</strong>re will not be additional tax payable by <strong>the</strong> Trust on such dividends.<br />
Exempt Income<br />
The Trust may receive Malaysian dividends which are tax exempt. The exempt dividends may be received from<br />
investments in companies which had previously enjoyed or are currently enjoying <strong>the</strong> various tax incentives<br />
provided under <strong>the</strong> law. The Trust will not be taxable on such exempt income.<br />
With effect from 1 January 2008 dividends received from companies under <strong>the</strong> one tier system would also be<br />
exempted.<br />
Interest income / pr<strong>of</strong>it 1 or discount income derived from <strong>the</strong> following investments are exempt from tax:<br />
(a)<br />
(b)<br />
(c)<br />
Securities or bonds issued or guaranteed by <strong>the</strong> Government;<br />
Debentures, o<strong>the</strong>r than convertible loan stocks, approved by <strong>the</strong> Securities Commission; and<br />
Bon Simpanan Malaysia issued by Bank Negara Malaysia.<br />
Interest income / pr<strong>of</strong>it 1 derived from <strong>the</strong> following investments are exempt from tax:<br />
(a)<br />
(b)<br />
Interest paid or credited by any bank or financial institution licensed under <strong>the</strong> Banking and Financial<br />
Institutions Act 1989 or <strong>the</strong> Islamic Banking Act 1983; and<br />
Bonds, o<strong>the</strong>r than convertible loan stocks, paid or credited by any company listed on Malaysia<br />
Exchange <strong>of</strong> Securities Dealing and Automated Quotation <strong>Berhad</strong>.<br />
The interest income / pr<strong>of</strong>it 1 or discount exempted from tax at <strong>the</strong> Trust level will also be exempted from tax upon<br />
distribution to <strong>the</strong> Unitholders.<br />
Tax Allowable Expenses<br />
Expenses wholly and exclusively incurred in <strong>the</strong> production <strong>of</strong> gross income are allowable as deductions under<br />
Section 33(1) <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Act. In addition, Section 63B <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Act provides for tax deduction in respect <strong>of</strong> managers’<br />
remuneration, expenses on maintenance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> register <strong>of</strong> Unitholders, share registration expenses, secretarial,<br />
audit and accounting fees, telephone charges, printing and stationery costs and postages based on a formula<br />
subject to a minimum <strong>of</strong> 10 per cent and a maximum <strong>of</strong> 25 per cent <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> expenses.<br />
Real Property Gains Tax<br />
Gains on disposal <strong>of</strong> investments by <strong>the</strong> Trust will not be subject to income tax but where <strong>the</strong> investments<br />
represent shares in real property companies, such gains will be subject to real property gains tax (“RPGT”). A<br />
real property company is a controlled company which owns or acquires real property or shares in real property<br />
companies with a market value <strong>of</strong> not less than 75 per cent <strong>of</strong> its total tangible assets. A controlled company is a<br />
company which does not have more than 50 members and is controlled by not more than 5 persons.<br />
In any case, pursuant to RPGT (Exemption) (No. 2) Order 2007, any disposal <strong>of</strong> chargeable assets after 31<br />

MASTER PROSPECTUS 2008/2009<br />
TAXATION OF UNITHOLDERS<br />
Unitholders will be taxed on an amount equivalent to <strong>the</strong>ir share <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> total taxable income <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Trust to <strong>the</strong><br />
extent <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> distributions received from <strong>the</strong> Trust. The income distribution from <strong>the</strong> Trust will carry a tax credit in<br />
respect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> tax paid by <strong>the</strong> Trust. Unitholders will be entitled to utilise <strong>the</strong> tax credit against <strong>the</strong> tax payable on<br />
<strong>the</strong> income distribution received by <strong>the</strong>m. No additional withholding tax will be imposed on <strong>the</strong> income distribution<br />
from <strong>the</strong> Trust.<br />
Corporate Unitholders, resident 3 and non-resident, will generally be liable to income tax at 26 per cent 1 on<br />
distribution <strong>of</strong> income received from <strong>the</strong> Trust. The tax credits attributable to <strong>the</strong> distribution <strong>of</strong> income can be<br />
utilised against <strong>the</strong> tax liabilities <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se Unitholders.<br />
Individuals and o<strong>the</strong>r non-corporate Unitholders who are tax resident in Malaysia will be subject to income tax at<br />
graduated rates ranging from 1 percent to 28 4 per cent. Individuals and o<strong>the</strong>r non-corporate Unitholders who are<br />
not resident in Malaysia will be subject to income tax at 28 4 per cent. The tax credits attributable to <strong>the</strong><br />
distribution <strong>of</strong> income will be utilised against <strong>the</strong> tax liabilities <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se Unitholders.<br />
Non-resident Unitholders may also be subject to tax in <strong>the</strong>ir respective jurisdictions and depending on <strong>the</strong><br />
provisions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> relevant tax legislation and any double tax treaty with Malaysia, <strong>the</strong> Malaysian tax suffered may<br />
be creditable in <strong>the</strong> foreign tax jurisdictions.<br />
The distribution <strong>of</strong> exempt income and gains arising from <strong>the</strong> disposal <strong>of</strong> investments by <strong>the</strong> Trust will be<br />
exempted from tax in <strong>the</strong> hands <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Unitholders.<br />
Any gains realised by Unitholders (o<strong>the</strong>r than those in <strong>the</strong> business <strong>of</strong> dealing in securities, insurance companies<br />
or financial institutions) on <strong>the</strong> sale or redemption <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> units are treated as capital gains and will not be subject<br />
to income tax. This tax treatment will include gains in <strong>the</strong> form <strong>of</strong> cash or residual distribution in <strong>the</strong> event <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
winding up <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Trust.<br />
Unitholders electing to receive <strong>the</strong>ir income distribution by way <strong>of</strong> investment in <strong>the</strong> form <strong>of</strong> new units will be<br />
regarded as having purchased <strong>the</strong> new units out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir income distribution after tax.<br />
Unit splits issued by <strong>the</strong> Trust are not taxable in <strong>the</strong> hands <strong>of</strong> Unitholders.<br />
We hereby confirm that <strong>the</strong> statements made in this report correctly reflect our understanding <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> tax position<br />
under current Malaysian tax legislation. Our comments above are general in nature and cover taxation in <strong>the</strong><br />
context <strong>of</strong> Malaysian tax legislation only and do not cover foreign tax legislation. The comments do not represent<br />
specific tax advice to any investors and we recommend that investors obtain independent advice on <strong>the</strong> tax<br />
issues associated with <strong>the</strong>ir investments in <strong>the</strong> Trust.<br />

For Malaysian income tax purposes, unit holders will be taxed on <strong>the</strong>ir share <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> distributions received from<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>.<br />
The income <strong>of</strong> unit holders from <strong>the</strong>ir investment in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> broadly falls under <strong>the</strong> following categories:<br />
1. taxable distributions; and<br />
2. non-taxable and exempt distributions.<br />
In addition, unit holders may also realise a gain from <strong>the</strong> sale <strong>of</strong> units.<br />
The tax implications <strong>of</strong> each <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> above categories are explained below:<br />
1. Taxable distributions<br />
Distributions received from <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> will have to be grossed up to take into account <strong>the</strong> underlying tax<br />
paid by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> and <strong>the</strong> unit holder will be taxed on <strong>the</strong> grossed up amount.<br />
Such distributions carry a tax credit, which will be available for set-<strong>of</strong>f against any Malaysian income tax<br />
payable by <strong>the</strong> unit holder. Should <strong>the</strong> tax deducted at source exceed <strong>the</strong> tax liability <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> unit holder, <strong>the</strong><br />
excess is refundable to <strong>the</strong> unit holder.<br />

days or <strong>the</strong> dividend is not derived from ordinary shares. This prohibition is not applicable for shares in a company listed on<br />
<strong>the</strong> Bursa Malaysia. It is proposed in <strong>the</strong> 2009 Budget that a person is not entitled for a set <strong>of</strong>f under section 51 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Finance<br />
Act 2007 if <strong>the</strong> dividend paid to that person is not paid in cash. The proposal has not been gazetted yet.<br />

Unit Trust Loan Financing Risk Disclosure Statement<br />
Investing in a unit trust fund with borrowed money is more risky than<br />
investing with your own saving<br />
You should assess if loan financing is suitable for you in light <strong>of</strong> your objectives, attitude to risk and<br />
financial circumstances. You should be aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> risks, which would include <strong>the</strong> following:-<br />
(i)<br />
(ii)<br />
(iii)<br />
(iv)<br />
The higher <strong>the</strong> margin <strong>of</strong> financing (that is, <strong>the</strong> amount <strong>of</strong> money you borrow for every Ringgit<br />
<strong>of</strong> your own money that you put in as deposit or down payment) <strong>the</strong> greater <strong>the</strong> potential for<br />
losses as well as gains.<br />
You should assess whe<strong>the</strong>r you have <strong>the</strong> ability to service <strong>the</strong> repayments on <strong>the</strong> proposed<br />
loan. If your loan is a variable rate loan, and if interest rates rise, your total repayment amount<br />
will be increased.<br />
If unit prices fall beyond a certain level, you may be asked to provide additional acceptable<br />
collateral or pay additional amounts on top <strong>of</strong> your normal instalments. If you fail to comply<br />
within <strong>the</strong> time prescribed, your units may be sold to settle your loan.<br />
Return on unit trusts are not guaranteed and may not be earned evenly over time. This means<br />
that <strong>the</strong>re may be some years where return are high and o<strong>the</strong>r years where losses are<br />
experienced instead. Whe<strong>the</strong>r you eventually realise a gain or loss may be affected by <strong>the</strong><br />
timing <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> sale <strong>of</strong> your units. The value <strong>of</strong> units may fall just when you want your money back<br />
even thought <strong>the</strong> investment may have done well in <strong>the</strong> past.<br />
This brief statement cannot disclose all <strong>the</strong> risks and o<strong>the</strong>r aspects <strong>of</strong> loan financing. You should<br />
<strong>the</strong>refore carefully study <strong>the</strong> terms and conditions before you decide to take <strong>the</strong> loan. If you are in doubt<br />
in respect <strong>of</strong> any aspect <strong>of</strong> this Risk Disclosure Statement or <strong>the</strong> terms <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> loan financing, you should<br />
consult <strong>the</strong> institution <strong>of</strong>fering <strong>the</strong> loan.<br />
