PRODUCT DISCLOSURE SHEET (Read this Product Disclosure Sheet before you decide to take out HomeSmart-i. Be sure to also read the general terms in the letter of offer. Seek clarification from your institution if you do not understand any part of this document or the general terms) HSBC Amanah Malaysia Berhad < Name of HomeSmart-i Type> Date : / / (dd/mm/yyyy) 1. What is this product about? This HomeSmart-i financing is calculated on a variable rate basis and you are pledging the property as a security for this financing. For Completed Property: What is the Shariah concept applicable? The Shariah concept applicable is Diminishing Musharakah (Co-ownership). Diminishing Musharakah involves three underlying contracts independent from each other, those are: (i) co-ownership, (ii) lease, and (iii) purchase. i. Co-ownership: The Bank participates as a financial partner in the acquisition of the property. You and the Bank contribute the capital to own the property. ii. Lease: The Bank then leases its share of the property to you for rental payment. iii. Purchase: On monthly basis, you purchase a portion of the Bank s shares. This purchase is effected against purchase price paid by you. Accordingly, the monthly payment which you have to pay to the Bank consists of: i. rental payment (to lease the Bank s share of the property), and ii. purchase price (to buy the Bank s share of the property). With each full payment you pay, the proportion of your shares in the property will increase, while the Bank s portion gradually diminishes. Ultimately, the transfer of all the Bank s share of the property to you will take place when the Bank s capital portion and lease rentals for the lease tenor have been paid in full. After that, you will fully own the property. For Property Under Construction: Financing of property under construction is based on an arrangement of Diminishing Musharakah and Istisna (construction procurement). The Istisna Agreement is applicable during the construction period. Istisna, which refers to a contract under which one party purchases from another at an agreed price, an asset to be constructed, built or manufactured in accordance with the agreed specifications, and which is to be delivered by the seller on an agreed future date. For this facility, the Istisna asset will be the property which must be a residential premises; the purchaser will be the Musharakah parties (which via a co-ownership arrangement, are collectively the Bank and you) and the seller and procurement party will be you. Your obligations as seller and procurement party are to: a. deliver the property that has been completed and built in accordance with the agreed specifications; and b. provide options arising from non-delivery and defects of the property. Your obligations as a Musharakah party are to: a. accept the completed property that is built in accordance with the agreed specifications and pay the Istisna selling price; and b. exercise options arising from non-delivery of the property and to deal with the defects in the property (if any).
Key terms and conditions of the Istisna documentation: The Musharakah Parties agree to jointly enter into this Istisna Agreement with the Seller and Procurement Party whereby the Musharakah Parties shall purchase; and the Seller and Procurement Party shall procure the construction and delivery of the Property based on the terms and conditions in the Istisna Agreement. In consideration of the Musharakah Parties agreeing to pay the Istisna Price, to or for the benefit of the Seller and Procurement Party, the Seller and Procurement Party hereby agrees as follows: a) to build, construct and deliver the Property in accordance with the terms of this Istisna Agreement and other documents related thereto; and b) to deliver possession of the Property to the Musharakah Parties on completion of the construction thereof. Failure to complete and deliver the property is considered an event of default, and failure to fulfil your obligations as seller and procurement party is considered negligence. 2.
