ICM:9316673.6 1 ANNEX PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION The following paragraph shall be deemed to replace the second paragraph of the section entitled "Presentation of Financial and Other Information – Presentation of Financial Information". "Unless otherwise indicated, the balance sheet, income statement and cash flow financial information included, or incorporated by reference, in this Base Prospectus relating to the Guarantor, its consolidated subsidiaries, jointly-controlled assets and equity accounted investees (the Group) has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group (the Annual Financial Statements) as at and for the financial years ended 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007 (including the comparative information as at and for the financial year ended 31 December 2006) set forth elsewhere herein and from the condensed consolidated unaudited reviewed interim financial statements of the Group as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2009 (the 2009 Interim Financial Statements and together with the Annual Financial Statements, the Financial Statements). The comparative information for the six months ended 30 June 2008 contained in the 2009 Interim Financial Statements has not been subject to review procedures. During the six month period ended 30 June 2009, the Group applied revised IAS 1 (Presentation of Financial Statements (2007)). As a result, the Group has presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income all changes in equity other than those resulting from transactions with owners in their capacity as owners, including additional shareholder contributions and changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries (owner changes in equity). All owner changes in equity are presented in the consolidated statement of changes in equity." RISK FACTORS The following section shall be deemed to replace the section entitled "Risk Factors". "RISK FACTORS Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor believes that the following factors may affect its ability to fulfil its obligations under Notes issued under the Programme. All of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur and neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor is in a position to express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring. In addition, factors which are material for the purpose of assessing the market risks associated with Notes issued under the Programme are also described below. If any of the risks described below actually materialise, the Issuer, the Guarantor and/or the Group’s business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects could be materially adversely affected. If that were to happen, the trading price of the Notes could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor believes that the factors described below represent all the material risks inherent in investing in Notes issued under the Programme, but the inability of the Issuer or the Guarantor to pay interest, principal or other amounts on or in connection with any Notes may occur for other reasons which may not be considered significant risks by the Issuer and the Guarantor based on information currently available to them or which they may not currently be able to anticipate. Prospective investors should also read the detailed information set out elsewhere in this Base Prospectus and reach their own views prior to making any investment decision. ICM:9316673.6 2 FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT THE GUARANTOR’S ABILITY TO FULFIL ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE GUARANTEE Risks Relating to the Group and its Strategy The Group has Significant Funding Requirements and the Company is Currently Reliant on the Government for a Major Part of its Funding The Group anticipates that it will make significant capital and investment expenditures in future years. A substantial portion of its anticipated capital and investment expenditure over the next five years is expected to relate to its global commercial finance joint venture with General Electric Company (see “Description of the Group— Agreements with GE”), its Masdar Project (see “Description of the Group—Masdar”), certain real estate developments to be undertaken by it (see “Description of the Group—Business Units—Real Estate & Hospitality”) and investments in oil and gas projects. The Group’s budgeted capital and investment expenditure for 2009 was AED 51.8 billion, although the Group anticipates that not all of this amount will be spent during 2009, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Group—Capital and Investment Expenditure and Financing Plan”. The Group intends to fund its future capital and investment expenditures and its financial obligations (including obligations to pay principal and interest on the Notes) through capital contributions from the Government, borrowings from third parties (including by way of the issue of Notes under the Programme and through project financing) and internally generated cash flow. The availability of Group operating cash flow to the Issuer is limited. See “—Factors that may Affect the Issuer’s Ability to Fulfil its Obligations under Notes Issued under the Programme—The Issuer’s Assets are Limited to Inter-Company Loans made by it and the Availability of Group Operating Cash Flow to repay Inter-Company Loans to Finance Payments in respect of the Notes may be Limited”. Once a year, the Company, based on its annual budget, proposes, and the Government approves, an amount of capital contribution to be granted to the Group. Since its establishment, the Company has received capital contributions from the Government totalling AED 39.2 billion as at 31 December 2008 and the Government has approved further capital contributions of up to AED 21 billion in 2009, of which AED 8.8 billion had been received as at 30 June 2009. Should there be a shortfall in the funds required by the Group in order to fulfil its business objectives for the year, the Company may have to request additional funds from the Government during the course of the year. While the Government has historically provided adequate cash and other contributions to the Company to support its projects and investment objectives, the Government is not legally obliged to fund any of the Group’s projects or investments and accordingly may not do so, even if it has previously approved the proposed budget for the project or investment concerned. Accordingly, there can be no guarantee that the Company will continue to receive adequate contributions from the Government.
