FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting standards requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. Long term investments Long term investments represent notes receivable from customers on finance lease. Leases are classified as finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. Provision for lease losses The Company reviews its problem lease contract receivables on a monthly basis to assess whether specific provisions for impairment should be recorded in the statement of income. In particular, considerable judgment by management is required in the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining the level of provisions required. Such estimates are necessarily based on assumptions about several factors involving varying degrees of judgment and uncertainty, and actual results may differ resulting in future changes to such provisions. Properties available for sale Represents properties acquired in satisfaction of debts and management s intention is to sell these properties in the near future. Properties available for sale are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Revenue recognition Finance leases income is calculated using the effective yield method which recognizes income based on the accrual method. Unearned finance income represents unearned income on leases and is deducted from the balance of notes receivable resulting from leases, which represents the remaining leases balance. Lease finance income is recognized over the term of the lease using the effective yield method. On certain leases, the Company charges a non-refundable front-end fee which is recognized as income when received. Service fees are accrued on a time proportionate basis, as the services are rendered and are recorded net of related expenses. -7-
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditure on maintenance and repairs is expensed, while expenditure for betterment is capitalized. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the applicable assets using the straight line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life or the remaining term of the lease. The estimated useful lives of the principal classes of assets are as follows: Years Leasehold improvements 10 Vehicles 4 Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 4-10 Computers and software 3-5 Deferred origination fees Deferred origination fees comprises of the unamortized portion of commission paid to a shareholder for deals originated through their channel.

Zakat is charged on Saudi shareholder's equity account while income tax is charged on foreign shareholders' equity account. Zakat and income tax are provided on an accruals basis. The zakat charge is computed on the zakat base. Income tax is computed on adjusted net income. Any difference in the estimate is recorded when the final assessment is approved, at which time the provision is cleared. Impairment of long lived assets Assets are reviewed for impairment losses whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss, if any, is recognized for the amount by which carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount which is the higher of an asset s net selling price and value in use. For purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows. Provisions for obligations A provision is made when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. -8-
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Impairment and uncollectibility of financial assets An assessment is made at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence that a specific financial asset or a group of financial assets may be impaired. If such evidence exists, an impairment loss is recognized in the statement of income. For assets carried at cost, impairment is determined as the difference between cost and the present value of future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for similar financial assets. Foreign currencies translation Foreign currency transactions are translated into Saudi Riyals at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at that date.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 19. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm's length transaction. The Company's financial assets consist of cash and bank balances, long term investments, accrued finance lease income receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, advances to property owners and due from related parties and its financial liabilities consist of accounts payable, provision for zakat and income tax, due to related parties, advance payments received, and accrued expenses and other liabilities. The fair value of financial instruments are not materially different from their carrying values. 20. RISK MANAGEMENT Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company has established procedures to manage credit exposure including evaluation of lessees' credit worthiness, formal credit approvals and obtaining collateral such as title on leased assets. Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of counter-parties are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic, political or other conditions. Concentrations of credit risk indicate the relative sensitivity of the Company's performance to developments affecting a particular industry or geographical location. The Company manages its credit risk exposure through attempting to diversify its leasing activities to ensure that there is no undue concentration of risk with individuals or groups of customers in specific locations or businesses. The credit risk on gross amounts due in relation to the long term investments is mitigated by the retention of title on leased assets. For details of the composition of the long term investments refer to Note 4. The Company follows a credit classification mechanism as a tool to manage the quality of credit risk of the lease portfolio. The Company grades the individual customer based on both subjectivity and payment history taking into consideration factors such as customer credit standing, financial strength, and security and quality of management. The Company monitors customers' grading on a regular basis. -18-

RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued) The table below shows the maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheets: Gross Gross maximum maximum Bank balances 2,827,136 67,423,836 Long term investments 3,554,180,594 3,363,159,198 Advances to property owners 39,144,200 54,387,506 Due from related parties 1,427,358 749,436 3,597,579,288 3,485,719,976 Commission rate risk Commission rate risk is the uncertainty of future earnings resulting from fluctuations in commission rates. The risk arises when there is a mismatch in the assets and liabilities which are subject to commission rate adjustment within a specified period. The most important source of such rate risk is the Company's leasing activities, where fluctuations in commission rates, if any, are reflected in the statement of income. Commission rate gap is a common measure of commission rate risk. A positive gap occurs when more assets than liabilities are subject to rate changes during a prescribed period of time. A negative gap occurs when liabilities exceed assets subject to rate changes during a prescribed period of time. Increase / decrease in basis point + / -25 bps 6,196,446 6,136,821 Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its net funding requirements. Liquidity risk can be caused by market disruptions or credit downgrades, which may cause certain sources of funding to dry up immediately. Management monitors the maturity profile of the Company's assets and liabilities based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date to ensure that adequate liquidity is maintained. -19-
