PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd.


(incorporated in Labuan, Malaysia with limited liability)

U.S.$1,250,000,000 TRUST CERTIFICATES DUE 2020


The U.S.$1,250,000,000 Trust Certificates due 2020 (the “Certificates”) will be issued by PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. (the “Issuer”) and
will be constituted by a declaration of trust (the “Declaration of Trust”) dated on or about March 18 , 2015 (the “Closing Date”) made by the Issuer,
the Issuer in its capacity as trustee (the “Trustee”), Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS) (“PETRONAS”) and The Bank of New York Mellon
(the “Delegate”). Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, the Issuer will declare that it will hold certain assets (the “Trust Assets”), consisting of all
of the Trustee’s rights, title, interest and benefit, present and future, in, to and under the relevant Sukuk Assets (as defined below), the Trustee’s rights,
title, interest and benefit, present and future, in, to and under the Transaction Documents (as defined herein) and all monies which may now be, or
hereafter from time to time are, standing to the credit of the Transaction Account (as defined herein) and all proceeds of the foregoing, upon trust
absolutely for the holders of the Certificates (the “Certificateholders” and each a “Certificateholder”) pro rata according to the principal amount
of the Certificates held by each Certificateholder in accordance with the Declaration of Trust and the terms and conditions of the Certificates (the
“Conditions”). The Certificates will rank pari passu among themselves. The Certificates constitute limited recourse obligations of the Issuer.

On March 18 and September 18 of each year (each a “Periodic Distribution Date”) up to and including March 18, 2020 (or if any such day
is not a Business Day (as defined herein), the following Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such
day shall be the immediately preceding Business Day), commencing on the Periodic Distribution Date falling on September 18, 2015, the Issuer will
pay a Periodic Distribution Amount (as defined herein) from proceeds received from and in respect of the Trust Assets to Certificateholders which
is calculated on the basis of 2.707% per annum of the outstanding principal amount of the Certificates as at the end of the Periodic Distribution Period

Dissolution Date”) except upon the occurrence of a Total Loss Event, a Dissolution Event or a Tax Event, each as further described herein.
Certificateholders should note that, through a combination of the Lease Agreement, the Purchase Undertaking, the Commodity Murabahah Investment
Agreement and the Servicing Agency Agreement (each as defined herein), the ability of the Issuer to pay the amounts due in respect of the Certificates
will ultimately be dependent on PETRONAS.

v
ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

PETRONAS is incorporated in Malaysia with limited liability. PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd.
is incorporated in Labuan, Malaysia with limited liability. Substantially all of the assets of
PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. and a substantial part of the assets of PETRONAS are located in
Malaysia. In addition, all of the directors and executive officers of PETRONAS and PETRONAS
Global Sukuk Ltd. and certain of the experts named herein are located in Malaysia and all or a
substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located in Malaysia. As a result, it may not be
possible for investors to effect service of process outside of Malaysia upon such persons or to enforce
judgments obtained in courts outside of Malaysia, including judgments predicated upon the civil
liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States, against such persons,
PETRONAS or PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. PETRONAS and PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. have
been advised by Kadir Andri & Partners, Malaysian counsel to PETRONAS and the Issuer, that there
is doubt as to the enforceability in Malaysian courts, in original actions or in actions for the
enforcement of judgments of United States courts, of civil liabilities predicated upon the federal
securities laws of the United States.

A judgment obtained against PETRONAS and PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. in a court of a
reciprocating country (as listed in the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act 1958 of Malaysia (the
“Enforcement Act”)) in respect of any sum payable by PETRONAS and PETRONAS Global Sukuk
Ltd. under the Certificates or the other Transaction Documents to be entered into among the Issuer,
PETRONAS, the Delegate and the Agents (as defined herein) may be recognized and enforced by the
courts of Malaysia upon registration of the judgment with the courts of Malaysia under the
Enforcement Act within six years after the date of the judgment, or, where there have been proceedings
by way of appeal against the judgment, after the date of the last judgment given in those proceedings,
so long as the judgment:

• is not inconsistent with public policy in Malaysia;

• was not given or obtained by fraud or duress or in a manner contrary to natural justice;

• is not directly or indirectly for the payment of taxes or other charges of a like nature or of
a fine or other penalty;

• was of a court of competent jurisdiction of such jurisdiction and the judgment debtor being
the defendant in the original court received notice of those proceedings in sufficient time
to enable it to defend the proceedings;

• has not been wholly satisfied;

• is final and conclusive between the parties;

• could be enforced by execution in the country of that original court;

• is for a fixed sum;

• is not directly or indirectly intended to enforce the penal laws or sanctions imposed by the
authorities of such jurisdiction;

• is not preceded by a final and conclusive judgment by a court having jurisdiction in that
matter; and

• is vested in the person by whom the application for registration was made.

vi
There is currently an agreement for reciprocal enforcement of judgments between Malaysia and
the United Kingdom as the United Kingdom is a reciprocating country under the Enforcement Act.
Under current Malaysian law, any judgment obtained for a fixed sum against PETRONAS and
PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. in a court of a foreign jurisdiction with which Malaysia has no
arrangement for reciprocal enforcement of judgments, after due service of process, may, at the
discretion of the courts of Malaysia be actionable in the courts of Malaysia by way of a suit on a debt
if such judgment is final and conclusive. However, such action may be met with defenses, including,
but not limited to, those listed above. There is currently no agreement for reciprocal enforcement of
judgments between Malaysia and the United States, and as such the United States is not a reciprocating
country under the First Schedule of the Enforcement Act and the Enforcement Act does not apply to
judgments obtained in the United States. Accordingly, even if a United States court were to rule in an
investor’s favor, it may be difficult to enforce such judgments in Malaysia. Due to the absence of
reciprocal arrangements, judgments obtained in a United States court will only be enforced by courts
in Malaysia in accordance with common law principles and fresh proceedings must be instituted by
a judgment creditor and upon re-litigation and re-examination of the issues.

Oil and Gas Reserves

Petroleum resources are key elements in PETRONAS’ investment decision-making process.


Accordingly, PETRONAS has developed — and maintains through regular updates — its “Definitions
and Guidelines for Classifications of Petroleum Resources” (the “Guidelines”).

“Petroleum resources” is defined in the Guidelines as consisting of both discovered and


undiscovered resources. Discovered resources are further classified into reserves and contingent
resources. The term “reserves” describes the recoverable quantity of petroleum resources that are

ix
commercially viable for development given the prevailing economic situation, in particular the prices
of crude oil and natural gas, present at the time of estimation. The term “contingent resources”
describes the recoverable quantity of petroleum resources that are not currently considered to be
commercially recoverable. The reason for non-commerciality could be due to economic, political,
environmental or technological reasons. Undiscovered resources are classified as prospective
resources. The term “prospective resources” describes those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of
a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future
development projects.

The range of uncertainty of the recoverable and/or potentially recoverable volumes may be
represented by either deterministic scenarios or by a probability distribution. Reserves and contingent
resources are estimated using either deterministic or probabilistic method, whereas prospective
resources are estimated using probabilistic method. The deterministic method is a single best estimate
made based on known geological, engineering and economic data, while in the probabilistic method
known geological, engineering and economic data are used to generate a range of estimates and their
associated probabilities.

Range of uncertainties are represented by low/best/high estimates. For reserves, the general
cumulative terms low/best/high estimates are denoted as 1P/2P/3P, respectively. The associated
incremental quantities are termed “proved,” “probable” and “possible.” “Proved reserves,” or 1P,
refers to the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas that geological and engineering data
demonstrate have reasonable certainty of being recovered in future years from known reservoirs under
current economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations. “Probable reserves,” or
2P, refers to the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas that geological and engineering data
suggests are more likely than not to be recoverable but technical, contractual, economic, or regulatory
uncertainties preclude such reserves being classified as proved. “Possible reserves,” or 3P, refers to
the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas that geological and engineering data suggest are less
likely to be recoverable than probable reserves but technical, contractual, economic, or regulatory
uncertainties preclude such reserves being classified as probable or proved. The equivalent categories
for contingent resources are 1C, 2C and 3C.

PETRONAS estimates Malaysia’s petroleum resources based on estimates submitted by the


contractors under its production-sharing contracts (“PSC Contractors”) and risk-service contracts
(“RSC Contractors”), that is, within the area in which they operate as well as resource estimates from
PETRONAS’ own appraisals and discoveries. These petroleum resources are estimated in accordance
with the Guidelines. Similarly, PETRONAS also estimates its international petroleum resources in
accordance with the Guidelines. The last revision of the Guidelines in 2012 was completed with a view
to aligning PETRONAS’ resource estimation practices more closely with the Society of Petroleum
Engineers’ Petroleum Resources Management System guidelines issued in 2007.

All petroleum resources data are estimates, which are revised when additional information
becomes available (for example, when additional wells are drilled or when actual production
commences). In Malaysia, all changes in petroleum resources data undergo technical assurance
validation and endorsement via appropriate engagement by PSC Contractors and RSC Contractors
with the relevant technical department in PETRONAS. PETRONAS conducts its Annual Review of
Petroleum Resources to review all petroleum resources changes prior to submission by PSC and RSC
Contractors to PETRONAS. PETRONAS’ own appraisals undergo similar technical assurance
validation and endorsement. This annual exercise focuses on the validation of key reasons for
resources changes as well as compliance with the Guidelines. It is also an avenue to consolidate
petroleum resources estimates for PETRONAS.

PETRONAS’ discovered resources are not certified by an independent party except where and
when required for a definitive transaction or prior to entering into or extending a natural gas sales
agreement. However, PETRONAS does engage independent third parties to perform reviews and
audits of its petroleum resource management system, that is, the processes, workflow and estimation
methods, as well as audits on selected fields.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights certain information contained elsewhere in this Offering Circular. You
should read the entire Offering Circular carefully, including the sections regarding “Risk Factors”
and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

PETRONAS

Overview

PETRONAS is a leading multinational oil and gas company with operations in over 65 countries.
Established in 1974 under the Malaysian Companies Act, 1965, PETRONAS is wholly-owned by the
Government of Malaysia; its powers are derived from the Petroleum Development Act of 1974, which
vests in PETRONAS the “entire ownership in, and the exclusive rights, powers, liberties and
privileges of exploring, exploiting, winning and obtaining petroleum whether onshore or offshore of
Malaysia.” As at January 1, 2015, Malaysia had discovered resources of approximately 23.2 bboe
comprising 6.0 billion barrels of crude oil (including condensates) and 103.9 trillion standard cubic
feet of natural gas.

PETRONAS is a fully integrated oil and gas company engaged in a broad spectrum of upstream
and downstream oil and gas, LNG and petrochemical operations. PETRONAS conducts its operations
directly and through its subsidiaries and associated companies. In April 2014, it completed its
Corporate Enhancement Program (the “CEP”), which involved a reorganization of PETRONAS’
businesses resulting in (i) the demarcation of its international and regional upstream operations; (ii)
a realignment of its upstream and downstream businesses through the integration of its exploration and
production operations and its sales of natural gas products and LNG — formerly within its downstream
gas and power business — into a single upstream business unit; and (iii) the streamlining and
optimization of corporate functions and reporting lines.

• Upstream business. PETRONAS’ upstream business includes the exploration, development


and production of crude oil and natural gas in Malaysia and overseas (including
unconventional resources), the liquefaction, sale and trading of LNG domestically and
internationally and the sale of natural gas products in Malaysia and selected international
markets.

• Downstream business. PETRONAS’ downstream business includes refining and marketing


petroleum products, manufacturing and selling petrochemical products, and trading crude
oil, petroleum products and petrochemical products. The downstream segment also includes
infrastructure such as that used in the processing and transmission of natural gas and LNG
regasification, power production and other utilities and technical and engineering services
for PETRONAS’ own operations.

• Logistics and maritime business. PETRONAS’ corporate and other business primarily
consists of its interest in MISC Berhad (“MISC”), a leading international maritime
company in Malaysia with a primary focus on energy transportation and logistics including
that used in the transportation of LNG, crude oil, petroleum products and petrochemical
products in support of PETRONAS’ own marketing and trading activities.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, PETRONAS had consolidated revenues
of RM291,226 million, RM317,314 million and RM329,148 million, respectively, and consolidated
net profit attributable to shareholders of PETRONAS of RM49,922 million, RM54,114 million and
RM37,038 million, respectively.

1
Competitive Strengths

Since its establishment in 1974 as the steward of Malaysia’s oil and gas industry, PETRONAS
has grown into a multinational major oil and gas company with operations in over 65 countries.
PETRONAS is a world-class fully-integrated oil and gas company with global scale and
diversification, deep technical and operating experience, a strong financial position and commitment
to corporate governance. PETRONAS believes that its success is primarily due to the following
factors:

• Strategic presence in one of Asia’s most attractive hydrocarbon destinations. PETRONAS’


success is attributable in a large part to its strategic presence in Malaysia, one of Asia’s
most significant and developed hydrocarbon regions. Malaysia is PETRONAS’ principal
area of operations and the foundation of its long term success, as well as being the initial
proving ground for PETRONAS’ extensive operating capabilities.

Malaysia is a highly prospective hydrocarbon destination and according to the BP


Statistical Review of World Energy 2014, as at December 31, 2013, Malaysia ranked as the
22nd largest country in the world by gas reserves and the 28th largest country in the world
by oil reserves (as well as being the 2nd largest country in Southeast Asia by both oil and
gas reserves).

In recognition of its strategic importance and progressive energy policies, the Malaysian oil
and gas industry continues to attract significant interest from a wide range of international
oil and gas companies including ExxonMobil, Royal Dutch Shell, Murphy Oil and Hess
Corporation, many of whom have been investing in the Malaysian industry for several
decades. Malaysia was one of the first countries to implement PSCs to encourage foreign
investment in the oil and gas sector and the Malaysian PSC framework has continued to
evolve in order to maintain the competitiveness of the industry. The Malaysian oil and gas
sector also continues to attract significant interest in PSC and RSC bidding rounds.
Furthermore, adding to Malaysia’s attractiveness as a hydrocarbon destination, Malaysia
has maintained an investment grade sovereign credit rating from international credit rating
agencies for the past decade.

PETRONAS is well positioned to benefit from its strategic presence and exclusive rights
to all of Malaysia’s oil and gas resources. PETRONAS is also the largest oil and gas
producer in Malaysia, and PETRONAS’ share of oil and gas production accounted for more
than 73.5% of the total Malaysian production in 2014.

In addition, PETRONAS also enjoys a unique position in the Malaysian PSC system with
certain PSC terms enabling PETRONAS to reduce its risk during the exploration stages by
having other contractors carry PETRONAS’ share of costs, whilst other terms also give
PETRONAS the flexibility to opt out of the contract at the end of such carry period. For
further information about the Malaysian PSC system, see “Business—Upstream
Business—Exploration and Production—Domestic E&P Operations—Production-Sharing
Contracts (PSCs).”

PETRONAS’ strategic presence in Malaysia extends beyond its upstream oil and gas
presence through to a leading position in the downstream oil business, with three oil
refinery complexes having a total current installed capacity of 434.7 kbbl/d and an overall
41% market share in retail gasoline, diesel and LPG as well as commercial markets. On the
petrochemical front, PETRONAS also has two large-scale integrated petrochemical
complexes in Malaysia with multinational joint venture partners such as BASF and
Mitsubishi Corporation. PETRONAS is also the operator of the backbone of energy
infrastructure in Malaysia — the Peninsular Gas Utilization (“PGU”) system comprising
2,500 km of pipeline and gas processing infrastructure, and also operates the PETRONAS
LNG complex, one of the world’s largest LNG production facilities with a total nameplate
production capacity of 25.7 mmtpa.

2
• Large scale and diversified international operations. PETRONAS has leveraged the
extensive operational capabilities it has developed in Malaysia to expand internationally —
starting in the early 1990s — to add scale and profitability to its business. As a
multinational major oil company, PETRONAS has expanded its global footprint — either
organically or through selected acquisitions — and now has large scale and diversified
operations in many countries spanning upstream exploration and production, LNG,
downstream refining, petrochemicals, lubricants as well as international marketing trading
activities for crude oil, refined petroleum products, LNG and petrochemical products.
PETRONAS’ operations are not only diversified by geography, but also by business and
revenue stream (for example, the upstream business is diversified across conventional,
unconventional and also LNG projects).

PETRONAS has a large international discovered resource base of 10.0 billion boe as at
January 1, 2015, accounting for 30.1% of PETRONAS’ total discovered resources. In 2014,
PETRONAS’ international upstream assets produced over 568 kboe/d of equity share of
production, accounting for 31.8% of PETRONAS’ share of Malaysian and international
equity production.

Furthermore, PETRONAS has a worldwide lubricants distribution network in over 80


countries and is a major refined petroleum products refiner and retailer in South Africa.

PETRONAS has achieved this international expansion by applying robust evaluation


criteria (including strategic fit, capacity to deliver value, potential for integration,
synergies and economic return parameters amongst others) to investment opportunities and
leveraging its extensive operational capabilities. PETRONAS’ international investments
have also been de-risked through partnerships with reputable international energy
companies, established local players and host governments. Major recent investments
include:

䡩 the joint venture with and subsequent acquisition of Progress Energy Resources Corp.
(now Progress Energy Canada Ltd., “Progress”) in Canada, PETRONAS’ first foray
into unconventional shale gas, followed by the proposed development of the Pacific
NorthWest LNG project in Canada to leverage on PETRONAS’ core competency in
LNG; and

䡩 the announced acquisition of a 15.5% interest in the Shah Deniz gas and condensate
project in Azerbaijan, which expands PETRONAS’ existing footprint in the Caspian
region and also gives PETRONAS a strategic foothold for gas supply into Europe.

• Industry leader in global LNG. PETRONAS is a leading global LNG player with an
integrated portfolio across the LNG value-chain from production, shipping to marketing
and trading. In 2013, PETRONAS’ LNG sales volume was 28.9 mmt, while global LNG
trade was 240.7 mmt according to BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2014. In Malaysia,
PETRONAS owns and operates one of the world’s largest LNG production facilities at a
single location with 25.7 mmtpa nameplate production capacity at Bintulu, Sarawak, and it
has expanded its LNG and related gas business activities internationally through joint
venture projects, including in Egypt and United Kingdom. Several projects are in the
pipeline to ensure a significant presence in the fast-expanding LNG market. This includes
the on-going growth initiatives to add the ninth LNG train at its LNG facility in Bintulu,
Sarawak, development of two FLNG facilities offshore Sabah and Sarawak, the two-train
coal seam gas-to-LNG project in Australia, that is, the GLNG project, and potentially a
two-train LNG facility in British Columbia, Canada, the Pacific NorthWest LNG (“PNW
LNG”) project. PETRONAS’ subsidiary, MISC, is one of the world’s leading LNG shipping
companies. The majority of MISC’s LNG tankers are contracted to PETRONAS.

3
PETRONAS operates one of the world’s largest single-site LNG complexes at Bintulu,
Malaysia and which is also currently undergoing further expansion. This LNG complex has
an enviable operational record of 98.6% reliability for 2014.

PETRONAS has established a strong reputation as a stable and reliable supplier of LNG and
over the last three decades has delivered over 9,000 LNG cargoes. PETRONAS sells LNG
to its customers from the major LNG consuming countries — Japan, Korea, Taiwan and
China (where it has established long- standing personal and organizational relationships) —
under long-term sales contracts of up to 20 years. PETRONAS has also established a
reputation for flexibility in its LNG supply as demonstrated during its increased supply into
Japan during the aftermath of the 2011 tsunami. PETRONAS’ LNG business is large scale
and accounted for 22.7% of its total revenue in the year ended December 31, 2014.

In order to profitably increase the scale of its LNG business and preserve its leading
position in the global LNG market, PETRONAS has optimized its existing operations,
pioneered new technologies, established new core areas of operations and exploited new
sources of gas. PETRONAS is at the forefront of both geographic and resource
diversification (with existing LNG projects in Malaysia and Australia and another proposed
in Canada) as well as conventional and unconventional gas supply sources.

In Malaysia, PETRONAS has had a recent track record of exploration success, which will
assist to supply the LNG complex. PETRONAS is also finalizing a new onshore receiving
facilities to optimize reliability and the flows of natural gas supplying all the trains at the
LNG complex.

PETRONAS is also at the forefront of deploying floating liquefied natural gas (“FLNG”)
systems, using some of the most advanced FLNG technology. PETRONAS currently has
two FLNG facilities in the development phase; the first is expected to be commissioned by
the end of 2015, targeted to be the first FLNG facility in the world, while the second is
expected to be commissioned in 2018. PETRONAS is also a key partner in one of the
world’s first integrated coal seam gas-to-LNG projects in Curtis Island, Australia which is
targeted to commission in the second half of 2015.

Furthermore, PETRONAS is a major project sponsor in one of the most well progressed
unconventional shale gas-to-LNG projects — the proposed PNW LNG project in Canada.
PETRONAS acquired unconventional shale gas resources and subsequently proposed an
integrated LNG project in Canada by leveraging the experience from its Malaysian and
Australian LNG projects. PETRONAS has also secured reputable partners out of Japan,
Brunei, India and China, both as equity investors and LNG offtakers to derisk this project
prior to its Final Investment Decision (“FID”). The project has already successfully
achieved key milestones including the completion of Front-End Engineering and Design as
well as receiving several government approvals including the LNG export license.

• Full integration across the entire value chain. One of PETRONAS’ core strategies is to
maximize the value of its resources through integration across the entire value chain.
PETRONAS participates in upstream exploration, development and production through to
gas processing, transmission and liquefaction, the refining of crude oil, the production of
petrochemical products and marketing of petroleum products, crude oil, LNG and
petrochemicals, as well as the trading and transportation of hydrocarbon products.

For example, in Malaysia, a portion of the crude oil that PETRONAS produces is supplied
to its refining complexes to produce higher-value refined petroleum products that are then
marketed and distributed to end-users by its marketing and trading arms. Similarly, a
portion of the natural gas produced is supplied to PETRONAS’ chemical complex which

4
converts gas into a variety of petrochemical products and derivatives which are then also
distributed and sold via the PETRONAS marketing network. Another example of adding
value through integration is the PETRONAS’ LNG business, which spans upstream gas
production, liquefaction, transportation, regasification and trading activities.

The integrated nature of PETRONAS’ business helps create a diversified revenue base that
mitigates cashflow volatility across the commodity price cycle. This integration, coupled
with the scale and reliability of PETRONAS’ operations, enables PETRONAS to realize
economies of scale, cost advantages and operational synergies whilst also enhancing the
value of its resources through improved margins and profitability.

PETRONAS continues to pursue further integration across the value chain by leveraging its
operating capabilities. An example is the ongoing development of the Refinery and
Petrochemical Integrated Development (“RAPID”) project within the Pengerang Integrated
Complex (“PIC”). PIC, the largest integrated refinery and petrochemical greenfield
development in Malaysia occupying an area of over 6,000 acres in Pengerang, Malaysia,
will (through RAPID) utilize naphtha to produce basic chemical intermediates that will then
be converted into more specialized premium chemical products. PETRONAS is also set to
benefit from further integration through its proposed PNW LNG project in Canada, in
which shale gas is to be produced and liquefied and then marketed and distributed to
end-users in Asia.

PETRONAS also utilizes its technological capabilities to further augment integration and
enhance value at each part of the value chain. This includes the deployment of enhanced oil
recovery and improved oil recovery technologies; the establishment of its subsidiary
Vestigo Petroleum Sdn. Bhd. with a unique skillset to accelerate the development of small,
marginal and mature fields in Malaysia and abroad; and various research and development
initiatives, such as its co-operation with Mercedes-Benz in the development of its
lubricants business.

Enabling PETRONAS’ integration strategy is its commitment to be a prudent, safe and


efficient operator throughout the value chain. PETRONAS has over 40 years of operating
experience in the upstream and downstream sectors in Malaysia. PETRONAS has achieved
consistently high reliability rates for its operating assets (such as 99.9% for the PGU
pipeline network and over 98.6% for the domestic refining business) and is also committed
to a high standard of health safety and environmental (“HSE”) compliance. HSE policies
are implemented via a dedicated HSE management system and the Mandatory Control
Framework (the “MCF”).

• Multinational management culture and corporate governance. PETRONAS operates as a


commercial enterprise and is committed to a multinational major oil and gas company
culture and corporate governance ethic. PETRONAS has implemented a number of
initiatives to enhance transparency and corporate governance in-line with best industry
practices including the CEP, which was initiated in 2010 and completed in 2014. The CEP
included initiatives to enhance the corporate governance and transparency of PETRONAS
such as the implementation of a series of improvements to the structure of the Board of
Directors, including increasing the number of independent directors, ensuring the same
individual does not perform the role of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman and
establishing an Executive Committee and board supervisory committees for corporate
governance and risk, as well as the voluntary publication of regular financial reports and
operational updates. PETRONAS has also enforced a strict employee code of conduct and
business ethics including a zero tolerance policy on corruption and bribery and a policy on
no gifts. The second phase of the CEP also restructured the reporting lines of several
businesses in order to create a clear line of sight to profitability — most notably
realignment along the lines of the upstream and downstream.

5
An important aspect of cultivating this organizational ethos is PETRONAS’ focus on hiring
the most talented professionals, whether by developing junior talent internally through its
comprehensive training programs, by recruiting senior talent externally from other
multinational oil and gas companies or by leveraging the talent from its international
acquisitions. The senior management team at PETRONAS consists of both management
who have been with PETRONAS for more than 30 years as well as professionals with
management experience at other multinational oil and gas companies such as Royal Dutch
Shell and Talisman Energy. At the senior management level, the succession planning
process run by the Executive Committee to identify future candidates for the role of Chief
Executive Officer is of paramount importance, as demonstrated by the recent appointment
of new Chief Executive Officer and President, Datuk Wan Zulkiflee Wan Ariffin, who has
been with PETRONAS since 1983 and is currently its Chief Operating Officer. His
appointment will take effect from April 1, 2015.

• Track record of strong financial performance and prudent financial management.


According to the 2014 Global 500 list published by Fortune magazine, PETRONAS ranked
69th by revenue (the highest of all companies in Southeast Asia) and 22nd in terms of
profitability. PETRONAS also has the highest corporate credit rating in Malaysia, as rated
by Standard & Poor’s (A-) and Moody’s (A1), and has maintained these ratings for more
than a decade.

PETRONAS’ net profit margin was 20.4%, 20.7% and 14.5% in 2012, 2013 and 2014
respectively. PETRONAS also generates substantial cash flow from its operations —
RM78,069 million, RM90,965 million and RM103,599 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014,
respectively.

In terms of its financial management practices, PETRONAS observes conservative


financial policies and maintains significant cash balances so as to be able to implement
projects on a timely basis, quickly take advantage of business opportunities, facilitate
partnerships with multinational partners and sustain disciplined capital investment through
industry price cycles. PETRONAS has a strong balance sheet and had cash and cash
equivalents and other investments RM124,755 million, compared to total debt, excluding
derivative assets, of RM36,834 million, as at December 31, 2014. PETRONAS, we believe,
has a comparably low leverage ratio within the global oil and gas sector.

PETRONAS also seeks to improve its overall financial performance through portfolio
optimization, that is, the divestment of non-core assets and the monetization of non-core
investments, the de-risking of projects through farm-out arrangements and business
partnerships as well as ensuring it has flexibility to manage the phasing of capital
expenditures.

PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd.

PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. was incorporated under the laws of Labuan, Malaysia under the
Labuan Companies Act, 1990 on July 7, 2009. PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. is a financing vehicle
for PETRONAS. It has no other operations. PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. will use the proceeds from
the issuance of the Certificates to purchase: (a) the Leased Assets from PETRONAS and/or its
subsidiaries; and (b) the Commodities. PETRONAS and/or its subsidiaries will use the proceeds it

Shariah-compliant.

Certificateholders will pay the issue price (the “Sukuk Issue Amount”) in respect of the Certificates
to the Trustee, and the Trustee will:

(a) apply no more than 67 per cent. of the Sukuk Issue Amount to purchase Commodities and
sell such Commodities to PETRONAS (the “Buyer”) pursuant to the Commodity

pursuant to the Lease Agreement,

and the above Sukuk Assets will form part of the Wakalah Portfolio.

Periodic Distribution Amount Payments by the Trustee. Rentals due in respect of the Leased
Assets under the Lease Agreement (which would be equal to the Periodic Distribution Amount due for
the relevant Periodic Distribution Period) would be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor on each

its interests, rights, benefits and entitlements in and to Leased Assets for the Exercise Price equal to

the Aggregate Deferred Sale Price payable by PETRONAS to the Trustee under the Commodity
Murabahah Investment Agreement will be used to fund the Dissolution Distribution Amount payable
by the Trustee under the Certificates.

The Trust may, in accordance with the Conditions, be dissolved prior to the Scheduled

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the Certificates offered through this Offering Circular involves risk. You should
carefully consider the risks set forth below as well as the other information contained in this Offering
Circular before investing in the Certificates.

Risks Relating to PETRONAS’ Business

Substantial or extended declines in the prices of crude oil and related oil products may have a
material adverse effect on PETRONAS’ business, results of operations and financial condition.

PETRONAS’ financial results are affected by international oil and natural gas prices, which have
fluctuated widely over the last two decades. Many factors influence oil and natural gas prices,
including global and regional supply and demand for crude oil, gas and related products; competition
from other energy sources; government regulations; weather conditions; global conflicts or acts of
terrorism; political instability; international economic conditions; inflation outlook; actions of
commodity market participants; and other factors over which PETRONAS has no control. As crude oil
prices provide a benchmark for gas and petrochemical feedstock prices, changes in crude oil prices
may also have an impact on gas and petrochemical prices. Decreases in oil, gas or product prices are
likely to have an adverse effect on revenue margins and profitability. Prolonged periods of low oil and
gas prices could result in projects being delayed, deferred or cancelled, impairment of certain assets
and the viability of projects may be affected. Higher oil and natural gas prices generally have a
positive effect on PETRONAS’ operating profit, while lower prices generally have a corresponding
negative effect. The weighted average price per barrel of Malaysian crude oil decreased significantly
since the second half 2014. For a discussion on Malaysian crude oil prices movements, see
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Factors
Affecting Revenue — Commodity Prices.” Substantial or extended declines in international crude oil
prices may have a material adverse effect on PETRONAS’ business, results of operations and financial
condition.

PETRONAS is subject to volatility in the oil and gas industry, which may weaken its profitability
and competitiveness.

The global oil and gas industries are highly competitive and volatile and are subject to various
risks and uncertainties. They are also subject to regulations and directives of national and local
governments with respect to matters such as limitations on production volumes and exports, pricing
policies, environmental protection controls and possibly nationalization of assets, expropriation and
cancellation of rights. PETRONAS is subject to all these risks as a result of its business activities.

PETRONAS operates internationally in countries that have differing degrees of political, legal and
fiscal stability. This exposes PETRONAS to a wide range of economic conditions and political
developments as well as changes in applicable laws and regulations.

PETRONAS engages in significant operations outside Malaysia. As at January 1, 2015, 30.1%


of PETRONAS’ discovered resources were outside Malaysia. PETRONAS’ financial condition and
results of operations are expected to be increasingly affected by international and local political,
economic and operating conditions in or affecting countries where it operates, transacts business or
has interests, such as Sudan.

PETRONAS also operates under a broad range of laws and governmental regulations, both in
Malaysia and elsewhere. These laws and regulations cover virtually all aspects of PETRONAS’
operations. The wide range of political and economic developments could result in changes to laws
and regulations that can affect our operations. PETRONAS cannot ensure, however, that legal,
regulatory, political or economic changes in the countries in which it operates will not have a material
adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition.

22
PETRONAS must make significant capital expenditures to maintain, among other things, its
current extraction and production levels and to maintain or increase its reserve levels. Reductions
in PETRONAS’ income and inability to obtain financing may limit PETRONAS’ ability to make
capital investments.

PETRONAS’ business is capital intensive. The exploration and development of oil and gas
reserves, production, liquefaction, processing, refining and petrochemical manufacturing require
substantial capital expenditures. PETRONAS must continue to invest significant capital to maintain
the amounts of oil and gas that it produces and processes and to maintain or increase its levels of oil
and gas reserves, both in Malaysia and internationally. PETRONAS also needs to fund the
maintenance of its existing plants, machinery and equipment. Further major investments in its
downstream business are also planned with targeted construction of new refinery and petrochemical
facilities in Malaysia.

PETRONAS cannot assure you that it will be able to maintain or increase its current levels of
production and downstream business activities. Its inability to generate sufficient operating cash flow
and raise sufficient external financing to fund its capital expenditure program may limit its ability to
make the capital investments required to continue its business activities at or above present levels.

PETRONAS’ business plans depend upon the successful execution of major projects in a timely
manner, and failure to deliver major projects successfully could adversely affect PETRONAS’
financial performance.

The success of PETRONAS’ upstream and downstream businesses depends on complex,


long-term, capital intensive projects. Successful execution of these projects in turn requires a high
degree of project management expertise and skilled manpower to maximize efficiency. Specific factors
that can affect the performance of major projects include the ability to negotiate successfully with
joint ventures, partners, governments, suppliers, customers, or others; optimize reservoir performance;
develop markets for products; manage changes in operating conditions and costs, and respond
effectively to unforeseen technical difficulties that could delay project startup or cause unscheduled
project downtime; and influence the performance of project operations where PETRONAS does not
perform that role. A failure by PETRONAS to manage these and other factors and to deliver major
projects successfully could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and
results of operations.

PETRONAS’ crude oil and natural gas discovered resource estimates involve some degree of
uncertainty and may prove to be incorrect over time or may not accurately reflect actual discovered
resource levels, or even if accurate, technical limitations may prevent it from retrieving these
discovered resources.

Crude oil and natural gas exploration and production activities are subject to various
uncertainties, including those relating to the physical characteristics of crude oil and natural gas
fields. These physical characteristics, including the proportion of discovered resources that can
ultimately be produced, the rate of production and the costs of developing the fields, are difficult to
estimate and as a result actual production may be materially different from current estimates of
discovered resources. Factors affecting PETRONAS’ discovered resource estimates include: new
production or drilling activities; field reviews; the addition of new discovered resources from
discoveries or extensions of existing fields; the application of improved recovery techniques and
changed economic conditions. As is customary among international oil and gas companies,
PETRONAS’ discovered resources in Malaysia are estimated by PETRONAS and its PSC Contractors.
Failure to replace or maintain discovered resources levels could result in lower future productions,
cash flows and income.

23
The reliability of discovered resource estimates depends on the quality and quantity of technical
and economic data, the production performance of the fields, and consistency in governmental oil and
gas policies. The quantities of crude oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered could be
materially different from PETRONAS’ discovered resource estimates, and downward revisions of its
estimates could affect its results of operations and business plan. Published discovered resources
estimates may also be subject to revision due to the application of published rules and guidance.

In recent years, PETRONAS has invested significant amounts in the development of coal seam
gas, shale gas and other unconventional resources. Shale gas, shale oil, tight-sand and coal bed
methane projects become viable at relatively high oil and gas prices and as more advanced technology
is developed to reduce the capital investment. Commercially, oil and gas price risks are the critical
factors affecting a project’s viability. In addition, significant amounts of capital are required on
drilling and completion programs, and rigs rates and prices of associated materials are also volatile
depending on the market conditions. Technical risks surrounding the discovered resources estimation
and production forecasts for all types of unconventional resources are very high due to geologic
uncertainty, reservoir properties and limitations of current technology. De-risking efforts are
undertaken by drilling many wells to acquire more data to have better control, applying new
technology as and when it becomes available, in addition to engaging third parties to evaluate and
certify the discovered resource valuation.

PETRONAS can give no assurance that the discovered resources estimates upon which it has
made investment decisions accurately reflect actual discovered resource levels, or even if accurate,
that technical limitations will not prevent it from retrieving these discovered resources.

PETRONAS’ activities may be adversely affected by competition.

As is the case with all international oil and gas companies, PETRONAS faces keen competition
in its business activities, both domestically and internationally. PETRONAS’ competitors, including
major oil and gas companies, may have greater financial and other resources than PETRONAS and,
as a result, may be in a better position to compete for future business opportunities. PETRONAS also
faces significant competition in the development of innovative products and solutions, including the
development of new technologies for its core upstream and downstream businesses. In addition, other
competitive sources of energy are expected to come into operation in the future, and the rapid
development of unconventional resources and alternative energy sources also creates competition for
the conventional energy industry. Accordingly, PETRONAS expects competition in the oil, gas,
petrochemical and refining industries to increase, which could have a material adverse effect on its
business, financial condition and results of operations.

PETRONAS is subject to critical laws and regulations such as international sanctions, antitrust,
anti-bribery, anti-corruption and data protection laws that carry significant fines and expose
PETRONAS and/or its employees to criminal sanctions and civil suits.

Investing in certain countries (including Myanmar and Sudan) and engaging in dealings with or
involving certain countries, entities and individuals could result in adverse consequences to
PETRONAS under existing or future trade or investment sanctions. The effect of any such sanctions
would depend on their nature, but if sanctions were imposed on PETRONAS, or one of its subsidiaries
or associated companies, it could affect the market for the securities of that company or impair
PETRONAS’ ability to access the U.S. capital markets. In addition, antitrust, anti-bribery,
anti-corruption and data protection laws apply to PETRONAS and its joint ventures and associates in
the vast majority of countries in which they operate. Failure to comply with these laws could expose
PETRONAS to regulatory investigations which may result in fines and penalties. Violation of these
laws is also a criminal offence in certain countries, and individuals may either be imprisoned or fined.
Furthermore, any violation by PETRONAS of applicable and relevant international sanctions,
anti-bribery and anti-corruption legislation could have a material adverse effect on its reputation,
business, financial condition and results of operations.

24
PETRONAS’ compliance with environmental regulations in Malaysia and in the countries in which
it operates could materially adversely affect its results of operations.

PETRONAS is subject to various environmental laws and regulations concerning land use, air
emissions, discharges to waters, waste materials and abandonment of installations in connection with
the design and operation of its upstream and downstream oil and gas facilities in Malaysia and other
countries in which PETRONAS operates, transacts business or has interests. Numerous government
agencies and departments issue environmental rules and regulations, which are often difficult and
costly to comply with and which carry substantial penalties for non-compliance. Accordingly,
PETRONAS cannot assure you that it will not be subject to stricter enforcement or interpretation of
existing environmental laws and regulations, or that such laws and regulations will not become more
stringent in the future.

Oil and gas companies around the world are periodically subject to adverse effects from
unfavorable market perceptions of the environmental impact of their operations. Given the possibility
of unanticipated regulatory or other developments, including more stringent environmental laws and
regulations, the amount and timing of future environmental compliance expenditures could vary
substantially from their current levels. These changes could limit the availability of PETRONAS’
funds for other purposes. PETRONAS cannot predict what additional environmental legislation or
regulations will be enacted in the future relating to, for example, climate change and extraction
methods used for unconventional assets or the potential effects on its financial position and results of
operations. PETRONAS’ foreign subsidiaries have incurred and expect to continue to incur capital and
operating expenditures to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations. Changes in
foreign environmental laws and regulations, or their interpretation, may require these subsidiaries to
incur significant unforeseen expenditures to comply with such requirements, which could have an
adverse effect on PETRONAS’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

PETRONAS is exposed to production, equipment and transportation risks, including deliberate acts
of terror, that could interrupt its operations and result in substantial potential liability.

PETRONAS is subject to several risks that are common among oil and gas companies. These
risks include production risks (fluctuations in production due to operational hazards, natural disasters
or weather, accidents, etc.), equipment risks (relating to the adequacy and condition of PETRONAS’
facilities and equipment) and transportation risks (relating to the condition and vulnerability of
pipelines and other modes of transportation). More specifically, PETRONAS’ business is subject to the
risks of explosions in pipelines (oil and gas), refineries, plants, drilling wells and other facilities;
typhoons and other natural or geological disasters; fires, accidents and mechanical failures;
suspension of refinery operations for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and repairs; oil spills
and leaks; unexpected geological formations or pressures resulting in blow-outs (sudden, violent
explosions of oil, natural gas or water from a drilling well, followed by an uncontrolled flow from the
well) or cratering (the caving in and collapse of the earth’s structure around a blow-out well);
mechanical failures and collapsed holes, particularly in horizontal well bores. PETRONAS’ facilities
are also subject to sabotage and terrorism risks.

The occurrence of any of these events or other accidents connected with production, processing
and transporting PETRONAS’ products could result in personal injuries, loss of life, environmental
damage with the resulting containment, clean-up and repair expenses, equipment damage and damage
to PETRONAS’ facilities. A shutdown of the affected facilities could disrupt PETRONAS’ production
and significantly increase its production costs.

Although PETRONAS has purchased insurance policies covering some of these risks, these
policies may not cover all liabilities, and insurance may not be available for all risks or on
commercially reasonable terms. There can be no assurance that accidents or acts of terror will not
occur in the future, that insurance will adequately cover the entire scope or extent of PETRONAS’
losses or that it may not be found directly liable in connection with claims arising from these and other
events.

25
PETRONAS’ investment in joint ventures and associated companies may reduce its degree of
control as well as its ability to identify and manage risks.

Many of PETRONAS’ major projects and operations are conducted through joint ventures or
associated companies. In certain cases, PETRONAS may have limited influence over and control of
the behavior, performance and cost of operations in which a PETRONAS company holds an equity
interest. Additionally, its partners or members of a joint venture or associated company (particularly
local partners in developing countries) may not be able to meet their financial or other obligations to
the projects, threatening the viability of a given project.

Risks Relating to Malaysia

PETRONAS is wholly owned by the Government of Malaysia, which may intervene in PETRONAS’
operations.

The Government of Malaysia is the sole shareholder of PETRONAS. As the sole shareholder, it
controls the approval of all corporate matters requiring a shareholder resolution under the Malaysian
Companies Act 1965, including, but not limited to, the approval of dividends and the appointment of
directors. However, PETRONAS’ financing obligations do not constitute obligations of and are not
guaranteed by the Government of Malaysia. The Government of Malaysia has the power to intervene
directly or indirectly in PETRONAS’ commercial and operational affairs. Although the relationship
between PETRONAS and the Government of Malaysia to date has generally been commercially
oriented, there can be no assurance that the Government of Malaysia will not intervene in the
commercial affairs of PETRONAS in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on
PETRONAS.

Changes in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Malaysian ringgit could have a
negative impact on PETRONAS’ results of operations and financial condition.

Most of PETRONAS’ revenue and costs are denominated in U.S. dollars, although a portion of
PETRONAS’ revenue and expenses are denominated in ringgit. Accordingly, changes in the U.S.
dollar to ringgit exchange rate could have an adverse impact on PETRONAS’ results of operations and
financial condition, including as a result of translation adjustments in converting U.S. dollar amounts
to ringgit for financial statement purposes. In addition, as a global company doing business in many
countries, PETRONAS is also exposed to changes in the value of other currencies.

Risks Related to the Issuer

The Issuer is a financing vehicle with no other operations and will have no material assets other
than the Trust Assets.

PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. is a financing vehicle for PETRONAS and has no other
operations. The Issuer will have no material assets other than the Trust Assets. The Issuer’s principal
source of funds will be its entitlement to receive Rentals under the Lease Agreement, the Aggregate
Deferred Sale Price under the Commodity Murabahah Investment Agreement and amounts payable by
PETRONAS under the terms of the Purchase Undertaking and the Servicing Agency Agreement.

The Issuer is ultimately dependent on PETRONAS to pay amounts due on the Certificates.

The ability of the Issuer to pay amounts due on the Certificates will ultimately be dependent upon
receipt by the Issuer of all amounts due from the Lessee under the Lease Agreement, the Buyer under
the Commodity Murabahah Investment Agreement and PETRONAS under the Purchase Undertaking
and the Servicing Agency Agreement. In the event that the Issuer is unable, on any Periodic
Distribution Date, to pay the Periodic Distribution Amount, or following a Dissolution Event, Tax

26
Event or Total Loss Event, or on the Scheduled Dissolution Date, to pay the Dissolution Distribution
Amount in full for failure of PETRONAS to pay the Exercise Price or the Dissolution Distribution
Amount, as the case may be, the Issuer will not have any other funds available to meet its obligations
under the Certificates.

The Issuer’s only material assets, which will be held on trust for the Certificateholders, are
currently the Trust Assets. Therefore, the Issuer is subject to all the risks to which PETRONAS is
subject, to the extent that such risks could affect PETRONAS’ ability to satisfy in full and on a timely
basis its respective obligations under the Lease Agreement, the Commodity Murabahah Investment
Agreement, the Purchase Undertaking and the Servicing Agency Agreement.

Risks Relating to the Certificates

Recourse to the Issuer is limited to the Trust Assets.

Each Certificate represents solely an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Assets.
Recourse to the Issuer is limited to the Trust Assets and the proceeds of the Trust Assets are the sole
source of payments on the Certificates. Upon the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the only remedy
available to the Certificateholders will be to require the Trustee or the Delegate, as the case may be,
to serve an Exercise Notice and exercise its option under the Purchase Undertaking to require
PETRONAS to purchase the Leased Assets at the Exercise Price. Certificateholders will otherwise
have no recourse to any assets of PETRONAS (in each of its respective capacities under the
Transaction Documents, to the extent PETRONAS fulfils all of its obligations under the Transaction
Documents to which it is a party), the Issuer, the Trustee, the Delegate, the Managers, the Agents or
any affiliate of any of the foregoing entities in respect of any shortfall in any amounts realized from
the Trust Assets.

PETRONAS is obliged to make payments under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party
directly to the Trustee, and the Trustee or the Delegate, as the case may be, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, will have direct recourse against PETRONAS to recover payments due to the
Trustee from PETRONAS pursuant to the Transaction Documents to which PETRONAS is a party.
There can be no assurance that the net proceeds of the realization of, or the enforcement with respect
to, the Trust Assets will be sufficient to make all payments due in respect of the Certificates. Once
the Trust Assets have been realized and applied, each of the Issuer and Trustee shall have no further
obligations to the Certificateholders and any outstanding obligations in respect of the Certificates
shall be extinguished.

No Certificateholder will be able to petition for, or join any other person in instituting
proceedings for, the bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or liquidation, winding up or
receivership of the Issuer or the Trustee. The Delegate will only be obliged to take enforcement action
against the Issuer and the Trust Assets if directed to do so by the requisite majority of
Certificateholders and indemnified and/or secured and/or pre-funded to its satisfaction against any
liabilities it may incur.

The Issuer’s and the Trustee’s obligations under the Certificates are solely corporate obligations
of the Issuer and the Trustee. The Certificateholders shall have no recourse against any shareholder,
officer, director or agent of the Issuer or the Trustee for any claim, loss, liability, or expense arising
under or with respect to or in connection with the Certificates.

Developments in the international markets may adversely affect the market price of the Certificates.

The market price of the Certificates may be adversely affected by declines in the international
financial markets and world economic conditions. The market for Malaysian securities is, to varying
degrees, influenced by economic and market conditions in other markets, especially those in Asia.
Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors’ reactions to developments in

27
one country can affect the securities markets and the securities of issuers in other countries, including
Malaysia. Since the sub-prime mortgage crisis in 2008, the international financial markets have
experienced significant volatility. If similar developments occur in the international financial markets
in the future, the market price of the Certificates could be adversely affected.

The Certificates are a new issue of securities for which there is currently no public market; you may
be unable to sell the Certificates if a trading market for the Certificates does not develop or if the
Certificates have limited liquidity.

The Certificates are a new issuance of securities with no established trading market. If a trading
market does not develop or is not maintained, holders of the Certificates may experience difficulty in
reselling the Certificates or may be unable to sell them at all. The liquidity of any market for the
Certificates will depend on the number of holders of the Certificates, the interest of securities dealers
in making a market in the Certificates and other factors. If the Certificates are traded, they may trade
at a discount from their initial offering price depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for
similar securities, general economic conditions, PETRONAS’ performance and business prospects and
other factors. PETRONAS and the Issuer have been advised by the Managers that they may make a
market in the Certificates as permitted by applicable law. The Managers are not obligated to do so,
however, and any such market making may be discontinued at any time in their sole discretion. No
assurance can be given as to the development of, liquidity of, or the continuation of a trading market
for the Certificates. If an active trading market does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the
Certificates may be adversely affected.

There is no assurance that the Certificates will be Shariah compliant.

CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad and the Shariah Board of Citi Islamic Investment Bank E.C. have
each issued a Fatwa in respect of the Certificates and the related structure and mechanism described
in the Transaction Documents and their compliance with Shariah principles. However, a Fatwa is only
an expression of the view of CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad and the Shariah Board of Citi Islamic
Investment Bank E.C. based on their extensive experience in the subject and is not a binding opinion.
There can be no assurance as to the Shariah permissibility of the structure of the issue and the trading
of the Certificates and none of the Issuer, PETRONAS, the Trustee, the Delegate or the Managers
makes any representation as to the same. Investors are reminded that, as with any Shariah views,
differences in opinion are possible. Investors are advised to obtain their own independent Shariah
advice as to whether the structure meets their individual standards of compliance and make their own
determination as to the future tradeability of the Certificates on any secondary market.

The Certificates will be unsecured obligations, will be structurally subordinated to the claims of
creditors of PETRONAS’ subsidiaries and will be subordinated to the claims of PETRONAS’
secured creditors.

The claims of all existing and future third-party creditors of PETRONAS’ subsidiaries as to the
cash flows and assets of such companies will have priority over the claims of the shareholders of such
subsidiaries, including PETRONAS, and the creditors of such shareholders. At December 31, 2014,
PETRONAS had total consolidated debt, excluding derivative assets, of RM36,834 million, of which
RM18,977 million was third-party debt of PETRONAS’ subsidiaries. The Transaction Documents do
not contain any restrictions on the ability of PETRONAS or its subsidiaries to incur additional
indebtedness.

28
A listing of the Certificates on a securities exchange cannot be guaranteed.

Approval-in-principle has been obtained for the listing of the Certificates on the Labuan
International Financial Exchange and Bursa Malaysia (Exempt Regime), and application has been
made for the listing of the Certificates on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The offering and settlement
of the Certificates are not conditional on obtaining any of these listings. Moreover, even if the
Certificates are so listed at the time of issuance, PETRONAS may seek an alternative listing for such
Certificates on another stock exchange, but there can be no assurance that such alternative listing will
be obtained.

Certificateholders may be adversely affected by a Total Loss Event despite the Issuer’s obligation
to adequately insure the Leased Assets.

Pursuant to the Lease Agreement, the Issuer is required, among other things, to insure the Leased
Assets. The Issuer has delegated this obligation to PETRONAS, as its servicing agent, and
PETRONAS has undertaken in the Servicing Agency Agreement, inter alia, to insure the Leased Assets
against the occurrence of a Total Loss Event at their full reinstatement value.

Nevertheless, should such an event occur, unless PETRONAS (in its capacity as Servicing Agent
under the Servicing Agency Agreement) procures new assets on the date of occurrence of the Total
Loss Event that will be made subject to the Lease Agreement through substitution, the Lease will be
required to be terminated and the Certificates will be repaid using the proceeds of the insurance
received by the Issuer. In connection with such termination, potential investors should be aware that
(i) rental payments and the corresponding Periodic Distribution Amounts will be reduced for the term
in which the termination takes place, and (ii) there may be a delay in the Issuer receiving the proceeds
of insurance (or shortfall amounts from the Servicing Agent) and therefore in Certificateholders
receiving the full Dissolution Distribution Amount in respect of their Certificates, and no additional
Periodic Distribution Amount will be paid in respect of this delay. In connection to this, the Servicing
Agency Agreement provides that if sufficient insurance proceeds are not paid into the Transaction
Account within 30 days of the occurrence of the Total Loss Event, PETRONAS, as Servicing Agent,
shall have failed in its responsibility to properly insure the Leased Assets and accordingly,
PETRONAS shall be required to pay any shortfall directly to the Transaction Account within 31 days
of the occurrence of the Total Loss Event. The Delegate will be entitled to enforce this undertaking
against PETRONAS on behalf of the Certificateholders.

The Transaction Documents may be modified without notice to Certificateholders.

The Conditions and the Declaration of Trust contain provisions permitting the Delegate from
time to time and at any time without any consent or sanction of the Certificateholders to make any
modification of, or to the waiver or authorization of any breach or proposed breach of, any of the
Conditions or any of the provisions of the Declaration of Trust or of any other Transaction Documents,
or determine, without any such consent as aforesaid, that any Dissolution Event shall not be treated
as such, if, in the opinion of the Delegate (a) such modification is of a formal, minor or technical
nature; (b) such modification is made to correct a manifest error; (c) such modification, waiver,
authorization or determination is not, in the opinion of the Delegate, materially prejudicial to the
interests of Certificateholders; (d) such modification is required to effect cancellation of Certificates
in accordance with Condition 6.6(b); or (e) such modification is not materially prejudicial to the
interests of the Certificateholders and such modification is required by PETRONAS to substitute the
Leased Assets in certain circumstances. Unless the Delegate otherwise decides, any such modification,
waiver, authorization or determination shall as soon as practicable thereafter be notified to the
Certificateholders and shall in any event be binding upon the Certificateholders.

29
The Certificates may be subject to restrictions on transfer which may adversely affect the value of
the Certificates.

The Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act or any U.S. state securities
laws or under the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and are being issued and sold in reliance
upon exemptions from registration provided by such laws. No Certificates may be sold or transferred
unless such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (for
example, in reliance on the exemptions provided by Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities
Act) and applicable state securities laws. The Certificates and the Agency Agreement will contain
provisions that will restrict the Certificates from being offered, sold or otherwise transferred except
pursuant to the exemptions available pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S, or other exceptions,
under the Securities Act. Furthermore, the Issuer has not registered the Certificates under any other
country’s securities laws. Investors must ensure that their offers and sales of the Certificates within
the United States and other countries comply with applicable securities laws. For certain restrictions
on resales and transfers, see “Transfer Restrictions.”

Certificateholders will have a beneficial ownership interests in the Leased Assets and no
investigation or enquiry will be made and no due diligence will be conducted in respect of the
Leased Assets

In order to comply with the requirements of Shariah, an interest in the Leased Assets will pass
to the Issuer (in its capacity as trustee) under the relevant Purchase Agreement. The Issuer will declare
a trust in respect of its ownership interest in such Leased Assets and the other relevant Trust Assets
in favor of the Certificateholders pursuant to the Declaration of Trust. Accordingly, Certificateholders
will have beneficial ownership interests in the Leased Assets unless transfer of the Leased Assets is
prohibited by, or ineffective under, any applicable law. See “—There may be restrictions on the
transfer of the Leased Assets”.

No investigation or enquiry will be made and no due diligence will be conducted in respect of
any Leased Assets. Only limited representations will be obtained from PETRONAS in respect of the
Leased Assets. In particular, the precise terms of such Leased Assets or the nature of the assets sold
or held will not be known (including whether there are any restrictions on transfer or any further
obligations required to be performed by PETRONAS to give effect to the transfer of the ownership
interest in the Leased Assets). No steps will be taken to perfect the legal transfer of any ownership
interest in any Leased Assets or otherwise give notice to any obligor in respect thereof. The obligors
in respect of such Leased Assets may have rights of set off or counterclaim against PETRONAS in
respect of such Leased Assets.

In addition, if and to the extent that a third party is able to establish a direct claim against the
Trustee and the Delegate on the basis of legal or beneficial ownership of any Leased Assets,
PETRONAS has agreed in the Declaration of Trust to indemnify the Trustee and the Delegate against
any such liabilities. If PETRONAS is unable to meet any such claims, then the relevant
Certificateholders may suffer losses in excess of the original principal amount invested.

There may be restrictions on the transfer of the Leased Assets

No investigation has been or will be made as to whether any interest in any Leased Assets may
be transferred as a matter of the law governing the contracts, the law of the jurisdiction where such
assets are located or any other relevant law. No investigation will be made to determine if any
Purchase Agreement will have the effect of transferring an ownership interest in the Leased Assets.
The Purchase Agreement will be, governed by Malaysian law and, to the extent that such laws are
applied in relation to any dispute, there are doubts whether an ownership interest in certain assets (in
particular assets such as ijara or receivables under murabahah contracts) can be effectively transferred
without notice of the transfer being given to the relevant obligor. Accordingly, no assurance is given
that any ownership interest in any Leased Assets will be transferred to the Issuer.

30
PETRONAS has agreed in the Purchase Undertaking to indemnify the Issuer for the purposes of
redemption in full of the outstanding Certificates in the event that any transfer of an ownership interest
in any Leased Assets is found to be ineffective.

In the event that the Leased Assets are not purchased by PETRONAS for any reason, the Delegate
is authorized to seek to enforce the above provisions of the Purchase Undertaking. To the extent that
it obtains an English judgment in its favor, it may, subject to being indemnified and/or secured and/or
pre-funded to its satisfaction, seek to enforce that judgment or award in a Malaysian court.

The value of the Certificates could be adversely affected by a change in English law or
administrative practice

The conditions of the Certificates are based on English law in effect as at the date of this
Offering Circular. No assurance can be given as to the impact of any possible judicial decision or
change to English law or administrative practice after the date of this Offering Circular and any such
change could materially adversely impact the value of any Certificates affected by it.

31
USE OF PROCEEDS

PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. will use the proceeds from the issuance of the Certificates to
purchase: (a) the Leased Assets from PETRONAS and/or its subsidiaries; and (b) the Commodities.
PETRONAS and/or its subsidiaries will use the proceeds it receives to finance capital expenditures
and for general corporate purposes which are Shariah-compliant.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the selected consolidated financial
data and PETRONAS’ audited financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Offering Circular. PETRONAS’ financial statements have been prepared in accordance with MFRS
and IFRS.

Overview

PETRONAS derives its revenue primarily from sales of crude oil and condensates, petroleum
products, LNG, processed gas and petrochemical products and from providing shipping services. The
main factors affecting results of operations are described below.

Factors Affecting Revenue

PETRONAS is a fully integrated global oil and gas company possessing a diversified revenue
base. Revenue in any period may be influenced by changing economic, regulatory and political
environments globally, regionally or in the various countries in which PETRONAS operates. The
primary factors affecting PETRONAS’ revenue generation capability include commodity prices,
production and sales volumes, the terms of production-sharing contracts and exchange rates.

Commodity Prices

The primary factors affecting PETRONAS’ operating results are the international market prices
for crude oil and natural gas, which are denominated in U.S. dollars. Higher prices generally have a
positive effect on PETRONAS’ operating profit, as PETRONAS’ upstream business benefits from the
increase in prices realized from production. Lower prices generally have a corresponding negative
effect. Changes in the price of crude oil also affect the world market prices for petrochemical
feedstocks, such as naphtha. As a result, the market prices of a number of petrochemical products may
vary with crude oil prices. The effect of changes in crude oil and natural gas prices on PETRONAS’
refined petroleum products business depends on the rate and extent to which the prices of such
products adjust to reflect those changes. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to PETRONAS’
Business—PETRONAS is subject to volatility in the oil and gas industry, which may weaken its
profitability and competitiveness” and “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to PETRONAS’
Business—Substantial or extended declines in the prices of crude oil and related oil products may
have a material adverse effect on PETRONAS’ business, results of operations and financial
condition.”

Crude Oil. PETRONAS generally sells its crude oil pursuant to contracts in which certain terms
are fixed, but prices are determined by reference to market benchmarks. Like other companies in the
oil and gas industry, PETRONAS is exposed to volatility in oil-related revenue throughout the year,
as prices can vary on a daily basis depending on a number of factors, including global supply and
demand.

36
The following table sets forth, for each of the periods indicated, the weighted average prices for
Malaysian crude oil and the average prices for West Texas Intermediate crude oil and Brent crude oil.

(1) Malaysian crude oil refers to a basket of Malaysian crude, namely Labuan, Miri and Kikeh.

Natural Gas. PETRONAS primarily sells its LNG pursuant to long-term contracts with offtakers
in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. The price of LNG is generally established in U.S. dollars. PETRONAS
also sells a small portion of its LNG volumes on a spot basis. LNG prices, which are determined by
reference to the Japanese custom-cleared crude oil price, are generally affected by changes in crude
oil prices. The recent decline in crude oil prices has had a minimal impact on PETRONAS’ average
LNG selling price for 2014 because of the lag in contracted LNG sales prices adjusting to the changes
in the crude oil prices. However, given recent declines in crude oil prices, PETRONAS’ average LNG
selling prices are expected to decline in the first quarter of 2015.

PETRONAS sells its processed gas generally pursuant to long-term contracts, principally to
domestic power generators, such as Tenaga Nasional Berhad and independent power producers in
Malaysia. It sells the balance to Senoko Power Ltd. (“Senoko”) and Keppel Energy Pte. Ltd.
(“Keppel”) of Singapore and industrial users such as PETRONAS’ petrochemical plants and Gas
Malaysia Berhad (“Gas Malaysia”). The price of processed gas sold under long-term contracts is
generally established in ringgit by reference to fuel oil prices in Singapore, except for sales to the
Malaysian power and non-power sectors and to Gas Malaysia.

From 1997, the Government of Malaysia established maximum prices for sales of processed gas
to the Malaysian power and non-power sectors. These sales continue to be subsidized, but the subsidy
is being phased out. In January 2014, the price for processed gas sales to the Malaysian power sector
increased from RM13.70/mmbtu to RM15.20/mmbtu. The price for sales to the Malaysian non-power
sector increased from RM18.35/mmbtu to RM19.85/mmbtu in May 2014 and subsequently to
RM21.35/mmbtu in November 2014.

In addition, following the commencement of the LNG regasification terminal operations in May
2013, the Government approved a two-tiered pricing mechanism for PETRONAS’ new customers and
for additional demand from existing customers. The prices are based on the ex-Bintulu LNG weighted
average price free-on-board (“FOB”). The FOB LNG price ex-Bintulu was selected as the appropriate
price reference to determine the domestic gas market price as it reflects the value of
internationally-traded Malaysian gas.

Petrochemicals. PETRONAS’ petrochemicals business was consolidated under its subsidiary,


PETRONAS Chemicals Group, whose shares were listed on Bursa Malaysia in November 2010.
Virtually all of the petrochemical products that PETRONAS produces are commodities; low
production cost is therefore the key to the success of these operations. Highly competitive cost
positions are achieved through economies of scale and high capacity utilization. By purchasing its
required raw materials from other PETRONAS’ operations within the same complex, the
petrochemical operations benefit from efficiencies in logistics and savings in energy, transportation,
purchasing and infrastructure costs. The petrochemical industry has experienced challenges in recent
years due to uneven economic growth in the United States and Europe, and the slowdown in growth
in China in recent years after recording significant growth. These developments had the effect of
reducing demand in the petrochemicals industry. PETRONAS has adopted a flexible approach to
managing production and inventory in response to changes in demand and production costs.

(2) PETRONAS’ share of domestic production includes the share of profit oil and gas to which it is entitled, PETRONAS
Carigali’s cost and profit oil and gas, and the oil and gas sold by PETRONAS on behalf of the Government of Malaysia.

Production volumes of crude oil from Malaysia’s domestic crude oil reserves are determined on
an annual basis by PETRONAS. Crude oil production levels from Malaysia’s oil reserves were
approximately 603,000 bpd in 2014 (including condensates). PETRONAS’ gas production volumes are
driven primarily by customer demand and the need to balance that demand with future sustainability
of PETRONAS’ gas reserves and future growth of PETRONAS’ operations.

In Malaysia, production has been on an increasing trend since 2012, with domestic production
rising by 1.9% and 2.3% in 2013 and 2014, respectively. The higher domestic production was
attributed primarily to rigorous reservoir management, which included intensified production
enhancements and improved oil recovery activities at maturing fields.

Production-Sharing Contracts. PETRONAS’ share of production includes the share of profit oil
to which it is entitled under the terms of the production-sharing contracts agreed with the PSC
Contractors, including PETRONAS Carigali. PETRONAS’ production also includes royalty oil and
gas, which PETRONAS sells on behalf of the Government of Malaysia. PETRONAS’ share of crude
oil and natural gas production and its revenue are affected by the total amount of oil and gas produced
and the amount of oil and gas retained by the PSC Contractors for cost recovery as well as their share
of the profit oil and gas. Under the terms of the various production-sharing contracts into which
PETRONAS has entered, the PSC Contractors bear all costs. The PSC Contractors may recover
specified capital and operating costs in barrels of crude oil or gas equivalent in accordance with the
terms of their respective production-sharing contracts. A portion of PETRONAS’ share of oil
production is sold as crude oil and a portion is used as a feedstock for PETRONAS’ refineries and sold
as refined petroleum products. Production sharing contracts have evolved to include favorable fiscal
terms and incentives to encourage PSC Contractors to take on additional risks and explore deepwater
and marginal field areas. See “Business—Upstream Business—Domestic E&P Operations.”

PETRONAS also introduced risk sharing contracts in Malaysia in 2011, which strike a balance
in sharing of risks with fair returns for the development and production of already discovered marginal
small fields. In this arrangement, PETRONAS remains the project owner while contractors are the

39
service providers and are responsible for field development and operation. Upfront capital investment
is contributed by the contractors who receive payment commencing from first production and
throughout the duration of the contract. See “Business—Upstream Business—Domestic E&P
Operations.”

In respect of its international operations, PETRONAS’ share of international crude oil and
natural gas production increased significantly since 2012, with an increase in production of 18.8% in
2013 and 11.4% in 2014. The increase was attributed to both existing and new production, mainly from
the resumption of production in the Republic of South Sudan, new producing fields in Iraq, namely
the Halfaya field in 2012 as well as the Garraf and Majnoon fields in 2013, and production from
unconventional assets in Canada.

PETRONAS recovers its exploration, development and production costs in its international
operations in accordance with the terms of the production sharing contracts or such other arrangements
to which it is a party. See “Business—Upstream Business—International E&P Operations.”

Factors Affecting Costs

The principal component of PETRONAS’ operating expenses is cost of revenue, which includes
costs of exploring, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas, and costs of purchasing some
of the crude oil and natural gas used as feedstock for PETRONAS’ refineries and gas processing,
petrochemical and LNG plants and for trading operations. PETRONAS is able to enhance the margins
of its consolidated business by using some of its crude oil and natural gas production as feedstock for
its refineries and petrochemical facilities. Other operating expenses include manpower expenses,
selling and distribution expenses and depreciation.

The decrease in crude oil prices toward the end of 2014 were not accompanied by similar
reductions in capital and service costs, which tend to lag fundamental crude oil price changes. For
example, while the average price per barrel of Brent crude oil decreased by 8.9% in 2014 compared
to 2013, the Upstream Capital Cost Index, published by IHS Inc., has not shown a similar decrease.
The lower crude oil prices resulted in a number of industry participants announcing toward the end
of 2014 a scaling back of investments and plans to cut costs.

Other Factors Affecting Results of Operations

Exchange Rate-Related Matters. Although most of PETRONAS’ revenue and costs are
denominated in U.S. dollars, a portion of PETRONAS’ revenue and expenses are denominated in
ringgit, including, for example, manpower costs in Malaysia. In addition, borrowings in currencies
other than ringgit are translated into ringgit at each reporting date, and these translations may
positively or negatively affect PETRONAS’ results of operations for that period. A strengthening of
the U.S. dollar against the ringgit generally has a positive effect on PETRONAS’ results of operations,
and a weakening of the U.S. dollar against the ringgit generally has a negative effect on PETRONAS’
results of operations. For example, in 2014, the ringgit depreciated against the U.S. dollar exchange,
and this exchange rate movement positively affected PETRONAS’ revenue. See “Risk Factors—Risks
Relating to Malaysia—Changes in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Malaysian
ringgit could have a negative impact on PETRONAS’ results of operations and financial condition”
and “Exchange Rates.”

Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of PETRONAS’ financial statements requires PETRONAS’ management to


select and apply significant accounting policies and to make estimates and judgments that affect
PETRONAS’ reported financial condition and results of operations. See note 1.4 (use of estimates and
judgments) and note 2 (Significant Accounting Policies) to the financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, included elsewhere in this Offering Circular, for a summary of

Revenue — Overview.

PETRONAS’ total revenue in 2014 increased by RM11,834 million to RM329,148 million, a


3.7% increase from RM317,314 million in 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to higher
crude oil production volume from Iraq and domestic fields and higher LNG and processed gas sales
volume, coupled with the effect of a favorable U.S. dollar exchange rate against the ringgit. In 2014,
the U.S. dollar averaged approximately RM3.27, compared with an average of approximately RM3.15
in 2013.

The growth in PETRONAS’ revenue in 2014 was offset in part by decreases in benchmark crude
oil prices. Benchmark Brent crude oil’s average price was approximately 8.9% lower in 2014
compared to 2013.

42
Revenue — Geographical Basis.

PETRONAS’ geographical revenue is determined by the geographical location of its customers,


and is presented for Malaysia, Japan, Rest of Asia, South Africa and Rest of the World. Revenue from
the Rest of Asia made the largest contribution to revenue, followed by revenue from Malaysia and
Japan. In 2014, Rest of Asia mainly comprised customers in China, Singapore, Taiwan and Korea.

The 3.7% increase in total revenue reported by PETRONAS was mainly attributable to higher
revenue from the Rest of the World, Japan and Malaysia. Revenue from the Rest of the World
increased by 12.6% to RM60,859 million from RM54,050 million in 2013 mainly due to higher
revenue derived from production in Iraq. Revenue from Japan increased by 5.1% in 2014 to RM52,669
million from RM50,094 million in 2013 mainly due to higher LNG sales volume. Revenue from
Malaysia increased by 3.3% in 2014 to RM78,117 million from RM75,615 million in 2013 primarily
due to the increase in the regulated processed gas price to the domestic power sector from
RM13.70/mmBtu to RM15.20/mmBtu effective January 1, 2014. This price increase was coupled with
higher processed gas sales volume due to higher availability of processed gas with the full-year
operation of the LNG regasification terminal in Melaka, which commenced operations in May 2013.

Revenue — Operating segments.

Revenue for the upstream segment increased in 2014 by RM17,925 million to RM165,257
million, a 12.2% increase over the RM147,332 million reported in 2013. The increase in revenue was
driven by an increase in production and an increase in PETRONAS’ share of profit oil and gas to
which it is entitled. The Garraf and Majnoon fields in Iraq were in full production in 2014, and there
was higher production from unconventional assets in Canada, including from those assets acquired
from Talisman Energy, Inc. The increase in the upstream segment’s revenue was also supported by
higher revenue from LNG sales, which rose by 10.3% from RM67,794 million in 2013 to RM74,777
million in 2014, primarily as a result of higher sales volume, as well as by higher revenues from
processed gas and natural gas sales. Revenue in the upstream segment also benefitted from the effect
of favorable U.S. dollar exchange rate movements against the ringgit.

Revenue in the downstream segment decreased by RM6,893 million in 2014 to RM150,363


million, a 4.4% decrease over the RM157,256 million reported in 2013. The decrease was primarily
due to the downward trends in prices for crude oil and petroleum and petrochemical products, as well
as lower revenue from trading activities.

The corporate and others segment’s revenue increased by RM802 million in 2014 to RM13,528
million, a 6.3% increase over the RM12,726 million reported in 2013.

Cost of revenue.

Cost of revenue increased by RM11,643 million in 2014 to RM216,424 million, a 5.7% increase
over the RM204,781 million incurred in 2013. The increase was due primarily to higher production
expenses for both domestic and international upstream operations and increased amortization
expenses, which rose by RM3,974 million to RM6,470 million from RM2,496 million in 2013 and
which were mainly due to increased amortization of assets and contractual rights under development
and production services contracts in Iraq. The increase in cost of revenue in 2014 was also due to
higher impairment on exploration expenditure, which increased by RM577 million to RM1,687 million
from RM1,110 million in 2013, as well as write-offs of exploration wells.

43
Gross profit and gross profit margin.

PETRONAS’ gross profit increased by RM191 million in 2014 to RM112,724 million, a 0.2%
increase over the RM112,533 million reported in 2013. Gross profit margin in 2014 was lower at
34.2%, compared to 35.5% in 2013, primarily because the decrease in crude oil prices toward the end
of 2014 were not accompanied by similar reductions in capital and service costs, which tend to lag
fundamental crude oil price changes.

Selling and distribution expenses.

Selling and distribution expenses increased by RM228 million in 2014 to RM5,146 million, a
4.6% increase over the RM4,918 million incurred in 2013. The increase was largely due to higher
transportation and freight expenses in line with higher sales volumes.

Administration expenses.

PETRONAS’ administration expenses increased by RM16,428 million in 2014 to RM32,338


million from RM15,910 million in 2013. The significant increase was mainly due to higher impairment
losses in 2014. Similar to other international oil companies and national oil companies, as a result of
the significant decrease in benchmark crude oil prices from the second half of 2014 and forecasts for
lower crude oil prices, PETRONAS recognized significant impairment losses on property, plant and
equipment in 2014 amounting to RM20,699 million, as compared with RM4,289 million in 2013,
primarily for its assets in Turkmenistan, Malaysia, Egypt, the Republic of Sudan and the Republic of
South Sudan.

Other expenses.

Other expenses increased by RM1,334 million in 2014 to RM3,193 million, a significant increase
over the RM1,859 million incurred in 2013. This increase was mainly due to higher foreign exchange
losses on translation of U.S. dollar borrowings arising from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar
against the ringgit. Net foreign exchange losses were RM1,842 million in 2014 compared to RM700
million in 2013.

Other income.

Other income increased by RM796 million in 2014 to RM6,563 million, a 13.8% increase from
the RM5,767 million reported in 2013. Other income primarily comprises write-back of provisions for
dismantlement, removal or restoration of property, plant and equipment amounting to RM1,776
million in 2014 as compared to RM1,925 million in 2013; gain on disposal of property, plant and
equipment, other investments, associates and subsidiaries amounting to RM1,391 million in 2014, as
compared to RM1,327 million in 2013; interest income of RM552 million in 2014 as compared to
RM373 million in 2013; and rental income on land and buildings of RM483 million in 2014 as
compared to RM447 million in 2013.

Operating profit.

As a result of the factors discussed above, PETRONAS’ operating profit in 2014 decreased by
RM17,003 million to RM78,610 million, a 17.8% decrease over the RM95,613 million reported in
2013.

Financing costs.

Financing costs decreased by RM96 million to RM2,656 million in 2014, a 3.5% decrease from
the RM2,752 million incurred in financing costs in 2013, due mainly to lower interest expenses as a
result of repayments of borrowings in 2014.

44
Share of profits after-tax and non-controlling interests of equity accounted associates and
joint ventures.

In 2014 share of profits after-tax and non-controlling interests of equity accounted associates and
joint ventures increased by RM340 million to RM1,737 million, a 24.3% increase from the RM1,397
million reported in 2013. The increase was largely due to contribution from PETRONAS Gas Berhad’s
associated company, Kimanis Power Sdn. Bhd., which commenced operations in 2014, amounting to
RM264 million.

Profit before taxation.

PETRONAS’ profit before taxation decreased by RM16,567 million in 2014 to RM77,691


million, a 17.6% decrease from the RM94,258 million reported in 2013 primarily due to the
impairment losses discussed above.

Tax expense.

Although PETRONAS is wholly owned by the Government of Malaysia, it does not enjoy any
special tax benefits and is subject to all taxes generally applicable to companies incorporated under
the Malaysian Companies Act 1965. In addition, under the Petroleum (Income Tax) Act 1967,
PETRONAS and PETRONAS Carigali are subject to a petroleum income tax rate of 38% on taxable
income from sales of crude oil and natural gas. Pursuant to the Income Tax Act 1967, taxable income
from PETRONAS’ other activities, including sales of LNG, processed gas, refined petroleum products,
and petrochemicals, is subject to the statutory corporate income tax rate of 25%.

In 2014, PETRONAS’ tax expense increased by RM1,406 million to RM30,078 million, a 4.9%
increase from the RM28,672 million incurred in 2013. PETRONAS had an effective tax rate of 38.7%
in 2014, higher than the Malaysian statutory rate of 25.0% primarily attributable to higher
non-deductible expenses, mainly impairment losses, the under-provision of taxation in the prior year
and the effect of the petroleum income tax. In 2013, PETRONAS had an effective tax rate of 30.4%.
The higher effective tax rate in 2014 as compared with the prior year was mainly due to higher
non-deductible expenses and lower tax exempt income coupled with under-provision of taxation in the
prior year.

Profit for the year.

PETRONAS’ profit for the year decreased by RM17,973 million in 2014 to RM47,613 million,
a 27.4% decrease over the RM65,586 million reported in 2013.

Profit for the year — Operating Segments.

Profit for the year by operating segments includes the inter-segment profit arising from
transactions between the operating segments, which is adjusted and eliminated in deriving
PETRONAS’ consolidated profit for the year discussed above.

Profit for the year for the upstream segment decreased by RM19,786 million in 2014 to
RM32,380 million, a 37.9% decrease over the RM52,166 million reported in 2013. The decrease was
mainly due to impairment losses on upstream assets increasing by RM16,961 million to RM22,264
million in 2014 compared to RM5,303 million in the previous year and lower gross profit. The lower
gross profit in 2014 was mainly due to higher depreciation and amortization expenses of RM21,510
million in 2014, RM1,186 million higher than the RM20,324 million incurred in 2013.

Profit for the year for the downstream segment decreased by RM2,571 million in 2014 to
RM5,743 million, a 30.9% decrease from the RM8,314 million reported in 2013. The decrease was
mainly due to the lower refining, petrochemical and petroleum product margins experienced as a result
of downward price trends for the relevant products.

45
Profit for the year for the corporate and others segment increased significantly by RM3,180
million in 2014 to RM5,848 million as compared to RM2,668 million in 2013, mainly due to tax
expenses in 2014 being RM991 million lower than in the prior year as a result of higher non-assessable
income and revenue from the sale and rental of properties and shipping services being RM707 million
higher than that reported in 2013.

Total consolidation adjustments and eliminations were RM3,642 million and RM2,438 million in
2014 and 2013, respectively.

Revenue — Overview.

PETRONAS’ total revenue in 2013 increased by RM26,088 million to RM317,314 million, a


9.0% increase from RM291,226 million in 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to higher
sales volume of PETRONAS’ major product groups as a result of higher production and trading
activities. The growth in revenue was further supported by a favorable U.S. dollar exchange rate
against the ringgit. In 2013, the U.S. dollar averaged approximately RM3.15 against the ringgit,
compared with an average of approximately RM3.09 in 2012.

47
Extending the trend of the previous year, the price of benchmark Brent crude oil remained above
US$100/bbl in 2013. In 2013, the price of Brent crude remained flat for most of the year before finally
averaging lower when compared with 2012. PETRONAS’ revenue growth was partially offset by the
decrease in the benchmark price.

PETRONAS’ revenue growth in 2013 was driven in part by improved operational performance.
Total upstream production of crude oil and gas increased by 5.5% in 2013. A significant contributor
to the increase came from international operations, including notably higher production from the
Republic of South Sudan and Iraq, and higher production from unconventional assets in Canada.
Domestically, higher natural gas production volume was mainly a result of enhancement programs in
existing fields and new fields offshore Sarawak. In addition, LNG sales volume increased by 10.6%
to 29 million MT.

Revenue — Geographical Basis.

The 9.0% increase in total revenue reported by PETRONAS in 2013 reflects mainly higher
revenue from the Rest of Asia, Rest of the World and Malaysia. In 2013, Rest of Asia mainly
comprised customers from China, Singapore, Korea and Taiwan. Revenue from the Rest of Asia
increased by 14.2% in 2013 to RM107,850 million from RM94,401 million mainly due to higher crude
oil and petroleum products sales to customers in China.

Revenue from the Rest of the World increased by 19.0% to RM54,050 million from RM45,424
million in 2012 mainly due to increased trading activities by PETRONAS’ subsidiary in the United
Kingdom as a result of an increase in gas storage capacity, the resumption of production in
PETRONAS’ Republic of South Sudan operations, as well as higher production from Iraq operations,
with the full-year operations of the Halfaya field and first production achieved by the Garraf and
Majnoon fields in 2013.

Revenue from Malaysia increased by 9.2% in 2013 to RM75,615 million from RM69,234 million
in 2012 primarily due to higher sales of petroleum products by the PETRONAS’ publicly listed
subsidiary, PETRONAS Dagangan Berhad, in the commercial and retail businesses, coupled with
higher processed gas sales volume, due to higher availability of processed gas with the commencement
of operations of the LNG regasification terminal in Melaka in May 2013.

Revenue — Operating segments.

Revenue in the upstream segment increased in 2013 by RM19,137 million to RM147,332 million,
a 14.9% increase over the RM128,195 million reported in 2012. The increase in revenue was mainly
driven by an increase in oil and gas production and higher LNG sales volume compared to the previous
year. In 2013, the upstream segment delivered its first hydrocarbons from 21 greenfield projects, nine
of which were located overseas. Production volumes were further improved by the inclusion of
production from unconventional assets in Canada, the earlier than expected resumption of production
in the Republic of South Sudan and intensified production enhancement efforts both in Malaysia and
internationally. Total LNG sales volume for the year was higher by 2.8 million MT, or 10.6% higher
as compared to 2012, on the back of higher production volume from PLC in Bintulu, Sarawak, which
reported its highest ever production of LNG in a single year at 26 million MT. Revenue from LNG
sales increased by RM5,326 million to RM67,794 million in 2013, 8.5% higher than the RM62,468
million reported in 2012.

Revenue in the downstream segment increased by RM7,000 million in 2013 to RM157,256


million, a 4.7% increase over the RM150,256 million reported in 2012. The increase was primarily
driven by higher crude oil and petroleum products sales volume due to stronger demand and higher
level of trading activity.

48
The corporate and others segment’s revenue decreased by RM49 million in 2013 to RM12,726
million, compared to RM12,775 million reported in 2012.

Cost of revenue.

Cost of revenue increased by RM21,434 million in 2013 to RM204,781 million, an 11.7%


increase over the RM183,347 million incurred in 2012. The increase in cost of revenue is due to higher
product purchase and production cost driven by higher sales and production volume as discussed
above. In addition, in 2013 PETRONAS incurred higher amortization expense, which increased by
RM1,464 million to RM2,496 million from RM1,032 million in the prior year, mainly from its Iraq
operations; and higher depreciation, which increased by RM1,540 million to RM22,880 million in
2013, 7.2% higher than the RM21,340 million incurred in the prior year, in line with higher capital
expenditures.

Gross profit and gross profit margin.

PETRONAS’ gross profit increased by RM4,654 million in 2013 to RM112,533 million, a 4.3%
increase over the RM107,879 million reported in 2012. Gross profit margin in 2013 was lower at
35.5%, compared to 37.0% in 2012, primarily because lower average Brent crude oil prices in 2013
were not matched by similar declines in the capital and service costs.

Selling and distribution expenses.

Selling and distribution expenses increased by RM463 million in 2013 to RM4,918 million, a
10.4% increase over the RM4,455 million incurred in 2012. The increase was largely in line with the
increase in PETRONAS’ oil and gas trading activities, which resulted in higher transportation
expenses.

Administration expenses.

PETRONAS’ administration expenses decreased by RM3,227 million in 2013 to RM15,910


million, a 16.9% decrease from the RM19,137 million incurred in 2012. The decrease was due mainly
to lower net impairment losses on property, plant and equipment, which decreased by RM3,223 million
to RM4,289 million in 2013 from RM7,512 million in 2012, when there were significant impairment
losses on our assets in Egypt.

Other expenses.

Other expenses in 2013 decreased by RM694 million to RM1,859 million, a 27.2% decrease over
the RM2,553 million incurred in 2012. In 2012, we recognized provisions for the decommissioning of
one of our petrochemical plants amounting to RM375 million.

Other income.

Other income decreased by RM3,568 million in 2013 to RM5,767 million, a 38.2% decrease from
the RM9,335 million recognized in 2012. The decrease was mainly due to lower write-back of
provisions for dismantlement, removal or restoration of property, plant and equipment in 2013
compared to 2012. In addition, in 2012 there were gains from the disposal of investments of RM1,580
million, primarily in Australia and the U.K. as compared to RM288 million reported in 2013.

Other components included in other income in 2013 mainly comprise gain on disposal of
property, plant and equipment and associates of RM1,039 million in 2013 as compared to RM286
million in 2012; interest income of RM373 million in 2013 as compared to RM470 million in 2012;
rental income on land and buildings of RM447 million in 2013 as compared to RM292 million in 2012.
In 2013 other income did not include any net gain on foreign exchange while in 2012 this amounted
to RM107 million.

49
Operating profit.

As a result of the factors discussed above, PETRONAS’ operating profit in 2013 increased by
RM4,544 million to RM95,613 million, a 5.0% increase over the RM91,069 million reported in 2012.

Financing costs.

Financing costs in 2013 decreased by RM152 million to RM2,752 million in 2013, a 5.2%
decrease from the RM2,904 million incurred in 2012.

Share of profits after-tax and non-controlling interests of equity accounted associates and
joint ventures.

In 2013 share of profits after-tax and non-controlling interests of equity accounted associates and
joint ventures decreased by RM179 million to RM1,397 million, 11.4% lower than the RM1,576
million reported in 2012, mainly due to lower petrochemical product margins as a result of softening
market demand and lower income from upstream associates as a result of lower oil and gas production.

Profit before taxation.

PETRONAS’ profit before taxation increased by RM4,517 million in 2013 to RM94,258 million,
a 5.0% increase over the RM89,741 million reported in 2012.

Tax expense.

In 2013, PETRONAS’ tax expense decreased by RM1,545 million to RM28,672 million, a 5.1%
decrease from the RM30,217 million incurred in 2012. PETRONAS had an effective tax rate of 30.4%
in 2013, higher than the Malaysian statutory rate of 25.0% partially attributable to the effect of the
petroleum income tax and non-deductible expenses, while these factors were offset in part by the
effects of tax-exempt income and tax incentives. In 2012, PETRONAS had an effective tax rate of
33.7%. The lower effective tax rate in 2013 was mainly due to lower chargeable petroleum income in
2013 and higher non-deductible expenses incurred in 2012.

Profit for the year.

PETRONAS’ profit for the year increased by RM6,062 million in 2013 to RM65,586 million, a
10.2% increase over the RM59,524 million recorded in 2012.

Profit for the year — Operating Segments.

Profit for the year by operating segments included the inter-segment profit arising from
transactions between the operating segments, which was adjusted and eliminated in deriving
PETRONAS’ consolidated profit for the year discussed above.

Profit for the year for the upstream segment increased by RM8,070 million in 2013 to RM52,166
million, an 18.3% increase over the RM44,096 million reported in 2012, mainly due to higher revenue
as described above. In addition, the upstream segment reported lower net impairment losses on
property, plant and equipment on upstream assets, which declined by RM4,936 million to RM5,303
million in 2013 compared to RM10,239 million in the prior year.

Profit for the year for the downstream segment increased slightly by RM53 million in 2013 to
RM8,314 million, 0.6% higher than the RM8,261 million reported in 2012, despite a 4.7% increase in
revenue as described above because of lower margins for refining, petroleum products trading and
petrochemical product sales.

Profit for the year for the corporate and others segment decreased by RM2,245 million in 2013
to RM2,668 million, a 45.7% decrease from the RM4,913 million reported in 2012. The decrease was
mainly due to a net foreign exchange loss in 2013 of RM1,015 million compared to a net foreign
exchange gain of RM221 million in 2012, due mainly to a loss on translation of borrowings in
currencies other than ringgit.

50
Total consolidation adjustments and eliminations were RM2,438 million and RM2,254 million in
2013 and 2012, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

PETRONAS financed its total funding requirements during the three years ended December 31,
2014—including capital expenditures, satisfaction of debt obligations, investments, taxes, other
working capital requirements, dividends and other cash outlays—primarily with funds generated from
operations. PETRONAS met the balance of its funding requirements primarily through external
borrowings.

Cash flows from operating activities increased 13.9% to RM103,599 million in 2014 from
RM90,965 million in 2013, which in turn represented an increase of 16.5% from RM78,069 million
in 2012. The increase in 2014 was primarily attributable to higher cash receipts from customers of
RM329,840 million in 2014, compared with RM308,423 million in the prior year, in line with higher
revenue, as well as a decrease in taxes paid to RM34,292 million in 2014, compared with RM38,772
million in the prior year, due to lower petroleum income in 2014 as compared with the prior year. This
increase was offset in part by an increase in cash paid to suppliers and employees to RM193,826
million in 2014, compared with RM179,393 million in the prior year. The increase in 2013 was
primarily attributable to higher cash receipts from customers of RM308,423 million in 2013, compared
with RM282,568 million in the prior year, in line with higher revenues as well as a decrease in taxes
paid to RM38,772 million in 2013 compared with RM41,164 million in the prior year due to higher
petroleum income as compared to the prior year and the change in PETRONAS’ financial year-end
from March 31 to December 31 effective from 2011. This change in financial year-end resulted in a
21-month basis period for PETRONAS’ 2012 year of assessment (April 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012)
compared to a 12-month basis period for the 2013 year of assessment (January 1, 2013 to December
31, 2013).

At December 31, 2014, PETRONAS’ cash and cash equivalents and fund investments totaled
RM124,755 million, of which RM108,262 million were bank deposits, primarily in ringgit in first-tier
banks in Malaysia. Fund investments consist of investments in quoted shares and securities inside and
outside Malaysia and Malaysian Government Securities. They do not include long-term quoted shares,
long-term securities or unquoted short-term securities, which are likely to be less liquid. At December
31, 2013, total cash and cash equivalents and fund investments stood at RM129,714 million. The
decrease of RM4,959 million from 2013 to 2014 resulted primarily from net cash utilized to meet
capital investment requirements.

At December 31, 2014, PETRONAS’ other investments, consisting of long-term quoted and
unquoted shares, other unquoted securities, corporate private debt securities and short-term
marketable securities, totaled RM11,440 million, compared to RM11,190 million at December 31,
2013. See notes 15 (Cash and Cash Equivalents) and 12 (Fund and Other Investments) to the financial
statements included elsewhere in this Offering Circular for a more detailed breakdown of
PETRONAS’ cash, cash equivalents, fund investments and other investments.

PETRONAS’ total debts amounted to RM36,834 million, RM41,846 million and RM40,737
million at December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2014, PETRONAS’ total
debt represented 6.9% of its total assets. The decrease in total debt in 2014 was due primarily to the
settlement of U.S. dollar-denominated sukuk securities by PETRONAS and ringgit-denominated
sukuk securities of its subsidiary KLCC Holdings. 72.2% of PETRONAS’ total outstanding debt at
December 31, 2014 was denominated in U.S. dollars, with the remainder denominated in ringgit
(16.8%), euro (5.1%), pounds sterling (4.4%) and other currencies (1.5%). At December 31, 2014,
88.1% of PETRONAS’ total debt were fixed-rate obligations, with the remainder being floating-rate
obligations. For a discussion of the various interest rates applicable to each facility, see note 22
(Borrowings), note 23 (Islamic Financing Facilities) and note 41 (Financial Instruments) to the
financial statements included elsewhere in this Offering Circular. As at December 31, 2014, more than
half of PETRONAS’ borrowings are scheduled to mature within five years.

Restrictions Relating to Funding

PETRONAS’ loan agreements and the agreements for its outstanding notes contain a number of
covenants that could potentially affect its ability to borrow additional funds, enter into loan
agreements or issue new debt securities. These covenants are generally similar to covenants contained
in loan agreements and debt securities of similarly situated issuers, and include cross-default
provisions, negative pledge provisions and limitations on certain sale-and-leaseback transactions. For
a more detailed discussion of these covenants, see note 22 (Borrowings) to the financial statements
included elsewhere in this Offering Circular.

Dividends

PETRONAS declared dividends of RM27,000 million in respect of the year ended December 31,
2012, RM27,000 million in respect of the year ended December 31, 2013 and RM28,000 million in
respect of the year ended December 31, 2014, out of which RM2,000 million was paid in 2014. The

PETRONAS’ capital expenditures relate mainly to its upstream and downstream business. The
increase in PETRONAS’ capital expenditures in 2014 was primarily attributable to expenditures
related to the RAPID project and two FLNG projects. The increase in 2013 was mainly attributable
to upstream investments, particularly in Canada and Turkmenistan, and the ninth LNG train project at
Bintulu, Sarawak and downstream investments in an ammonia and urea project in Sabah.

PETRONAS has substantial additional capital commitments that have been approved by the
Board of Directors. The following table sets forth PETRONAS’ outstanding approved capital
commitments, including both those that have been approved and contracted for and those that have

Commitments that have been approved but not contracted for are subject to change as projects
are reviewed or contracts are entered into. PETRONAS’ outstanding capital commitments at December
31, 2014 primarily include oil and gas field developments by the upstream business and purchases for
the RAPID project and for two FLNG projects. See “Business—Upstream Business,” “—Downstream
Business” and Note 36 (Commitments) to the financial statements included elsewhere in this Offering
Circular.

PETRONAS has total approved capital expenditures of RM69,925 million for 2015, including
those that have been committed and contracted for and those that have not been committed and
contracted for. Since capital commitments that have been approved but not committed to contract may
be subject to change, and because PETRONAS may from time to time determine to undertake
additional capital projects, actual capital expenditures in future years may be more or less than the
amounts shown. PETRONAS expects to fund its future capital expenditures through funds generated
from operations, drawdowns under existing term loans and additional external borrowings, including
the funds raised through the concurrent offering of notes guaranteed by PETRONAS.

Risk Management

As an integrated oil and gas company, PETRONAS is exposed to various risks that are particular
to its upstream and downstream businesses and its operating environment. PETRONAS has in place
an ongoing process for managing significant risks affecting the achievement of its business objectives
which includes identifying, evaluating, managing and monitoring these risks.

53
Risk management and its ongoing improvement in strengthening the quantification, review and
monitoring of all significant risk areas (including credit, market, project, country, plant and facilities,
operations, health, safety, environment and information and communication technology) remain a key
focus of the Board of Directors in building a successful and sustainable business.

The Board Governance and Risk Committee (“BGRC”) has been established in PETRONAS to
provide, among others, oversight and in-depth discussion on risk management matters at the board
level. BGRC reviews policies, practices and principal risks and oversees the adequacy and
effectiveness of the risk management system to monitor and manage risks in PETRONAS. A Risk
Management Committee (“RMC”) is in place to serve as a central platform to assist the management
in identifying principal risks at the enterprise level and providing assurance on the effective
implementation of risk management practices with guidance and directions from the PETRONAS
Executive Committee and BGRC. The RMC also promotes sound risk management practices through
sharing of information and best practices to enhance the risk culture across PETRONAS.

Enterprise risks are managed on an integrated basis and their evaluation is incorporated into the
PETRONAS decision-making process, such as strategic planning and project feasibility studies.
Separate risk management units or functions also exist within PETRONAS at various operating unit
levels, particularly for its listed subsidiaries, to assess and evaluate the risk management processes for
reporting to their respective board and management levels.

PETRONAS adopts hedging as a risk management strategy to provide greater predictability of


financial results and to mitigate downside risk or the negative impact of movements in financial risk
factors to the entity’s key financial performance, such as operational cash flow, revenue, margin and
profitability. Hedging strategy is considered for underlying exposures (such as foreign exchange risk,
interest rate risk or price risk) that are firm and committed, as well as underlying exposures that are
highly probable or anticipated. Decisions to hedge may differ from entity to entity based on each
entity’s strategic objectives and risk appetite toward the underlying exposures. PETRONAS relies on
natural hedges arising through its business transactions and on the use of approved financial
derivatives, namely forwards and swap contracts. PETRONAS ensures that adequate internal
governance and operational risk controls are in place for the proper authorization, execution,
monitoring and reporting of the hedging strategy and the use of derivatives by entities within
PETRONAS, in addition to compliance with pertinent governing regulations and laws. PETRONAS
does not engage in speculative derivative activities or derivative trading activities.

Counterparty Credit Risk. Counterparty credit risk includes risks relating to counterparties
(including financial institutions, corporates, customers and contractors, including PSC Contractors)
failing to perform contractual or financial obligations and risks of defaults on deposits, due to
circumstances such as bankruptcy, financial constraints or political restrictions. PETRONAS has
established the PETRONAS Credit Risk Rating System (“PCRRS”), which enables the review of
existing counterparties’ risk and an assessment of the riskiness of potential counterparties, using a
standardized basis and approach across the organization. Using PCRRS, every counterparty is given
a risk rating based on specific criteria. In addition, PETRONAS has developed a “credit value at risk,”
or “CVaR,” risk management tool to measure credit risk. CVaR uses statistical methodologies to
estimate probable losses relating to particular transactions.

Market Risk. Market risk is the risk of loss arising from changes in the level or volatility of
market prices, which in the case of PETRONAS primarily results from changes in the commodity
markets, as well as from changes in interest rates and in foreign exchange markets. PETRONAS VaR
as one of its main market risk measurement tools. VaR is a statistical approach that estimates possible
losses for a given portfolio over a certain period at a particular confidence level using past market
movement data. Although past market movements are not necessarily a good indicator of future
events, PETRONAS believes that VaR analysis is generally appropriate for its purposes in managing
its market risk.

54
Project Risk. With respect to each new project into which it enters, PETRONAS conducts a
Project Risk Assessment, or “PRA,” which is designed to review the potential risks that may arise in
connection with that transaction. The PRA is reviewed prior to moving forward. In addition,
PETRONAS conducts a Project Independent Review during the course of each project at critical points
in the project timeline, which provides a check to validate the business purpose and viability of the
project.

Country Risk. PETRONAS has established the Country Risk Management Framework and
Guideline as the foundation for the establishment of a country risk management approach across the
organization. PETRONAS conducts country risk assessments and in-country risk management to
ensure that it has an understanding of the legal, regulatory and operating environment and the political
and economic consequences of operating in a particular country before and after entering a country
and for preparedness during a crisis.

Plant and Facilities Risk. PETRONAS identifies, analyzes, quantifies and responds to risks
during normal operation of plants and facilities by taking appropriate measures to mitigate these risks.
PETRONAS’ Plant and Facilities Risk Management (“PFRM”) addresses risks to plants and facilities
operations and aims to provide a framework and risk assessment guidelines to promote effective risk
management practices and stewardship at the plants and facilities and also at the business level. The
PFRM system compliance is conducted through the Integrated Plant Operations Capability System
self-assessments and verifications.

Operational Risk. PETRONAS defines operational risk as the risk of unscheduled shutdowns of
its operations. PETRONAS has instituted Operational Performance Improvement initiatives that aim
to enhance operational performance by, among other things, identifying and classifying operational
risks and implementing measures to mitigate these risks. PETRONAS also has in place contingency
plans and business continuity plans for certain foreseeable emergencies.

Health, Safety & Environment Risk. HSE governance for PETRONAS is guided by the group HSE
Policy and supported by the PETRONAS HSE MCF. The MCF includes clear requirements on
operational safety, environment and health for consistent and effective group-wide implementation. A
risk-based group HSE assurance program is carried out to provide independent assurance on the
adequacy and effectiveness of HSE controls and compliance to HSE regulatory requirements,
wherever we operate.

Group HSE Assurance reports are presented to the Audit Committee of PETRONAS’ Board on
a regular basis. Group HSE and sustainable development performance is monitored and reported to the
PETRONAS Board for oversight.

Information and Communication Technology (“ICT”) Risk. Information security for PETRONAS
is governed by the PETRONAS Information Security Policies and Baselines, which is supplemented
by the Enforce Information Security initiative to protect PETRONAS’ digital information. For external
threats, group ICT continuously monitors external cyber security threats and incidents and has
appropriate mitigation plans in place. Scheduled drills and exercises are conducted annually to ensure
readiness in the event of activation of business continuity plans.

Group ICT also has in place a Disaster Recovery Plan (“DRP”) for identified critical business
applications located at the primary data center. The DRP is reviewed periodically to include newly
identified critical business applications and tested annually to ensure its readiness and reliability.

BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

PETRONAS is a leading multinational oil and gas company with operations in over 65 countries.
Established in 1974 under the Malaysian Companies Act, 1965, PETRONAS is wholly-owned by the
Government of Malaysia; its powers are derived from the Petroleum Development Act of 1974, which
vests in PETRONAS the “entire ownership in, and the exclusive rights, powers, liberties and
privileges of exploring, exploiting, winning and obtaining petroleum whether onshore or offshore of
Malaysia.” As at January 1, 2015, Malaysia had discovered resources of approximately 23.2 bboe
comprising 6.0 billion barrels of crude oil (including condensates) and 103.9 trillion standard cubic
feet of natural gas.

PETRONAS is a fully integrated oil and gas company engaged in a broad spectrum of upstream
and downstream oil and gas, LNG and petrochemical operations. PETRONAS conducts its operations
directly and through its subsidiaries and associated companies. In April 2014, it completed its CEP,
which involved a reorganization of PETRONAS’ businesses resulting in (i) the demarcation of its
international and regional upstream operations; (ii) a realignment of its upstream and downstream
businesses through the integration of its exploration and production operations and its sales of natural
gas products and LNG — formerly within its downstream gas and power business — into a single
upstream business unit; and (iii) the streamlining and optimization of corporate functions and
reporting lines.

• Upstream business. PETRONAS’ upstream business includes the exploration, development


and production of crude oil and natural gas in Malaysia and overseas (including
unconventional resources), the liquefaction, sale and trading of LNG domestically and
internationally and the sale of natural gas products in Malaysia and selected international
markets.

• Downstream business. PETRONAS’ downstream business includes refining and marketing


petroleum products, manufacturing and selling petrochemical products, and trading crude
oil, petroleum products and petrochemical products. The downstream segment also includes
infrastructure such as that used in the processing and transmission of natural gas and LNG
regasification, power production and other utilities and technical and engineering services
for PETRONAS’ own operations.

• Logistics and maritime business. PETRONAS’ corporate and other business primarily
consists of its interest in MISC, a leading international maritime company in Malaysia with
a primary focus on energy transportation and logistics including that used in the
transportation of LNG, crude oil, petroleum products and petrochemical products in support
of PETRONAS’ own marketing and trading activities.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, PETRONAS had consolidated revenues
of RM291,226 million, RM317,314 million and RM329,148 million, respectively, and consolidated
net profit attributable to shareholders of PETRONAS of RM49,922 million, RM54,114 million and
RM37,038 million, respectively.

Natural Gas. As at January 1, 2015, Malaysia had 103.9 trillion standard cubic feet (tscf) of
natural gas discovered resources. Natural gas discovered resources are comprised of associated gas
and non-associated gas. PETRONAS estimates that, at the 2014 natural gas production levels of
approximately 6,509 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd), these discovered resources will
last for approximately 44 years.

International

As a result of its targeted and disciplined international expansion strategy, as at January 1, 2015,
PETRONAS had estimated international discovered resources of 10.0 bboe. PETRONAS estimates
that at the 2014 production level of approximately 568 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day
(kboed), these discovered resources will last for approximately 48 years. PETRONAS’ international
resources includes its share of the resources located in the Malaysia-Thailand Joint Development Area,
an economic zone located in the lower Gulf of Thailand for the joint development of natural resources
by the Malaysian and Thai governments, with each country holding a 50% interest. For PETRONAS’
international operations, data for the discovered resources estimates are generally obtained from the
operator of the production consortium or from the host country. See “—Exploration and
Production—International E&P Operations.”

Domestic E&P Operations

PETRONAS is actively engaged in the exploration, development and production of oil and gas
in Malaysia. As at December 31, 2014, Malaysia had 614,584 square kilometers of land and seabed
available for oil and gas exploration, of which 332,815 square kilometers were covered by
production-sharing and risk service contracts. PETRONAS has over 100 active production-sharing
contracts in Malaysia, and has awarded a total of 27 new production-sharing contracts from 2012 to
2014 in support of its continued focus on domestic exploration. During this period, PETRONAS made
more than 50 discoveries within Malaysian waters, including major discoveries offshore Sarawak,
which have resulted in additional resources of 3.72 billion boe.

Until 1993, oil and gas exploration and production activities in Malaysia took place in the broad
continental shelf, which provides favorable conditions for oil and gas exploration. Within this shelf,
five major petroleum-bearing sedimentary basins in Malaysia have been identified. The water depth
of these areas ranges from 25 to 200 meters. Malaysia’s existing oil and gas fields in the continental
shelf are located mainly offshore Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak. As at December 31, 2014,
cumulative exploration activities in the continental shelf had resulted in discovery of 178 oil fields
and 299 gas fields.

As production from existing fields continues to mature, PETRONAS has become increasingly
focused on sustaining future national production by developing Malaysia’s oil and gas resources
located in geologically more complex, riskier and higher-cost acreages including deepwater blocks,
high pressure high temperature (HPHT) formations and acreages with high CO 2 . Malaysia’s deeper
offshore areas, defined as those with water depths of 200 meters or more, have been opened to oil and
gas exploration beginning in 1995 and, as at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS had awarded 25
deepwater production-sharing contracts to a variety of multinational oil and gas companies, including
PETRONAS Carigali. Malaysia’s first deepwater production, from the Kikeh field, began in the 2008,
followed by the Gumusut-Kakap field in 2012 and most recently the Kebabangan field in 2014.

In addition, PETRONAS is pioneering innovative solutions such as Enhanced Oil Recovery


(EOR), Improved Gas Recovery (IGR) and Improved Oil Recovery (IOR), small field development and
intensified exploration activities. As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS had awarded two EOR
production-sharing contracts and in 2014 sanctioned 22 EOR, IOR and IGR projects with major oil and
gas operators such as Shell, Talisman, Murphy, SapuraKencana, ExxonMobil and PETRONAS
Carigali.

Production-Sharing Contracts (PSCs)

PETRONAS typically carries out its exploration, development and production activities in
Malaysia through production-sharing contracts with PSC Contractors, including a number of
international oil and gas companies and its wholly-owned subsidiary, PETRONAS Carigali. By using
production-sharing contracts, PETRONAS is able to insulate itself from the capital costs and risk of
failure associated with exploration activities, while maintaining a significant share in any commercial
discovery that is produced through its entitlements under these arrangements.

PETRONAS’ production-sharing contracts are similar to those in which multinational oil and gas
companies enter with other host countries and partners. Each contract obligates the relevant PSC
Contractor to provide all the financing and bear all the risk of exploration, development and
production activities in exchange for a share of commercial production. One exception to this structure
is for contracts with PETRONAS Carigali, which has a carried interest during the exploration phase
in most of its production-sharing contracts signed with PETRONAS after 1985, as further described
below. As in most international production-sharing contracts, PETRONAS’ PSC Contractors are
allowed to recover specified capital and operating costs in the form of produced oil or gas (such oil
or gas is referred to as “cost” oil or gas) from total oil and gas produced from the contracted area, after

60
deduction of cash payments to governments, up to a maximum recovery limit specified in the
production-sharing contract. The remainder of the oil or gas produced (“profit” oil or gas) is shared
between the PSC Contractor and PETRONAS on a ratio basis that is dependent upon the volume of
oil or gas produced.

PETRONAS further benefits from the production-sharing contracts because it owns all
exploration and production data and all the other assets acquired and used by the PSC Contractors in
the performance of their production-sharing contracts. Although PETRONAS owns this data and such
other assets, the PSC Contractors have the right to use the assets for the duration of the
production-sharing contracts. The value of those assets is not reflected on the balance sheet of
PETRONAS.

As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS had 101 production-sharing contracts in effect. A


production-sharing contract may be awarded to a single PSC Contractor or a consortium of PSC
Contractors, and one PSC Contractor may be party to several production-sharing contracts. The PSC
Contractors exploring for oil and gas in Malaysian waters include ExxonMobil Exploration and
Production Malaysia Inc. (“EMEPMI”), PETRONAS Carigali, Shell Malaysia Exploration and
Production (“Shell Malaysia”), Total E&P Malaysia, Nippon Oil Exploration Ltd. (“Nippon Oil”),
Murphy Oil Corporation (“Murphy Oil”), Hess Corporation (“Hess”), Talisman Malaysia Limited
(“Talisman Malaysia”), Lundin Petroleum AB, BHP Billiton Limited, Petrofac Limited (“Petrofac”),
SapuraKencana Energy Inc. (previously known as Newfield Inc.) (“SKE”), ConocoPhillips and
Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company (“KUFPEC”). The main operators of PETRONAS’
oil and gas producing fields are EMEPMI, Shell Malaysia, PETRONAS Carigali, Talisman Malaysia,
Murphy Oil, Petrofac, SKE and Nippon Oil, as well as joint operating companies formed by two or
more PSC Contractors, such as PCPP Operating Company Sdn. Bhd. and Kebabangan Petroleum
Operating Company Sdn. Bhd.

PETRONAS signed its first group of production-sharing contracts in 1976 with EMEPMI (then
known as Esso Production Malaysia, Inc.), Sarawak Shell Berhad and Sabah Shell Petroleum
Company. Contracts signed between 1976 and 1985 provide for terms similar to the 1976
production-sharing contracts. In 1985, PETRONAS revised the terms of its production-sharing
contracts to allow for accelerated cost recovery and improved sharing ratios of profit oil and gas for
the PSC Contractors. The improved fiscal regime attracted substantial exploration investment into
Malaysia.

To promote exploration in offshore areas with water depths of 200 meters or more, PETRONAS
introduced the “deepwater” production-sharing contract in 1993. The terms of the deepwater contract
take into account the higher risks and investment involved in oil and gas exploration and production
in deepwater areas and incorporate several fiscal and non-fiscal incentives. Fiscal incentives for the
PSC Contractor under these contracts include accelerated cost recovery and improved sharing ratios,
while non-fiscal incentives include longer exploration, development and production periods.

Under the terms of all production-sharing contracts in Malaysia signed after 1985, PETRONAS
Carigali and its wholly-owned subsidiary participate as a PSC Contractor with a minimum interest of
15%. In most of the production-sharing contracts signed after 1985, PETRONAS Carigali’s interest as
a PSC Contractor is “carried” from the time the contract is signed until the completion by the other
PSC Contractors of specified work commitments or fulfillment of minimum financial and drilling
commitments or commercial success (the “carried interest period”). During the carried interest period,
all exploration and other costs are borne by the PSC Contractors other than PETRONAS Carigali.
Upon the expiration of the carried interest period, PETRONAS Carigali must determine whether to
continue its participation in the production-sharing contract or to opt out of the contract. If
PETRONAS Carigali exercises its option to retain its interest in the contract after the carried interest
period, PETRONAS Carigali bears the costs of future operations in proportion to its participating
interest in the production-sharing contract.

61
The production-sharing contracts are for specified durations. Exploration periods generally last
for three years and development periods last for four years for shallow water blocks (water depths up
to 200 meters). For deep water blocks (water depths of 200 meters or more), exploration periods
generally last for four years and development periods last for six years. If no commercial discovery
is made in a block by the end of the exploration period, a PSC Contractor must relinquish that block,
and PETRONAS may then re-award the block under a new production-sharing contract. If a
commercial discovery in a field is made, the development period for that field begins to run from the
date of that discovery.

During the development period, the PSC Contractor will engage in activities designed to enable
the commercial production of hydrocarbons, such as the drilling of wells and the construction of
facilities. The production phase of the production-sharing contracts, with respect to each discovered
field, generally lasts for a period of up to 20 years for shallow water blocks and up to 25 years for
deep water blocks, in each case from the first date of commercial production from such field. If a gas
field is discovered, the production-sharing contracts provide for an additional holding period of up to
five years between the exploration and development phases, and the total contract period may be
extended to take into account the holding period.

In 1997, PETRONAS introduced new fiscal terms for new production-sharing contracts relating
to shallow water blocks based on the “revenue-over-cost” concept to encourage additional investment
in Malaysia’s upstream sector. The revenue-over-cost production-sharing contract allows the PSC
Contractors to accelerate their cost recovery if they perform within certain cost targets. The
underlying principle is to allow a PSC Contractor a higher share of production when the contractor’s
profitability is low and to increase PETRONAS’ share of production when the contractor’s
profitability improves. The PSC Contractor’s profitability at any time is measured by the
revenue-over-cost index, which is the ratio of the PSC Contractor’s cumulative revenue (calculated as
the sum of the PSC Contractor’s cost oil and profit oil or cost gas and profit gas, as the case may be,
less certain payments made to PETRONAS when the value of the crude oil or gas exceeds a certain
base price, as determined under the contract) over the PSC Contractor’s cumulative costs. As at
December 31, 2014, 59 revenue-over-cost production-sharing contracts were in effect with 17 oil and
gas operators.

To spur further growth in its brown field resources, PETRONAS developed and implemented the
concept of progressive volume base production-sharing contract in 2012. This type of
production-sharing contract addresses the current challenges of developing brown field resources,
which include maturing oil resources, declining levels of oil production, higher costs and higher
subsurface risks. This production-sharing contract also adopts a progressive profit sharing model
based on cumulative volume to incentivize PSC Contractors to pursue further upsides in matured
fields. Under this type of production-sharing contract, no threshold limit is set by PETRONAS for oil
exploration and production, enabling PSC Contractors to earn higher profits as the hydrocarbon
production increases. As at December 31, 2014, two progressive volume base production-sharing
contracts were in effect with two oil and gas operators.

(1) Allocation percentage refers to PSC Contractor’s entitlement of cost oil and gas and profit oil and gas.
(2) Applicable for deepwater areas with water depth of 200 meters and above.
(3) Includes “High Temperature High Pressure” production contract for operationally challenging conditions of extreme
pressure and high temperature deep reservoirs. Contractor profitability is based on revenue-over-cost index.
(4) Contractor’s profit share progressively increases based on cumulative volume.

Small Field Risk Service Contracts

PETRONAS also carries out the exploitation of petroleum resources using small field risk
service contracts. These contracts were introduced by PETRONAS in 2011 to attract cost effective
technical solutions from niche small field players with the capability and technology to unlock the
potential of PETRONAS’ small field resources. The small field risk service contract model shares
commercial and technical risks, with PETRONAS assuming the role of project owner and contractors
operating as service providers with an equity stake in the small field risk service contract. These
contractors incur all upfront costs and are then reimbursed upon first commercial production and
throughout the duration of the contract. Contractors under small field risk service contracts are also
entitled to remuneration fees commensurate with their performance under the contract. This new type
of contractual arrangement has facilitated direct participation of Malaysian companies in the country’s
upstream oil and gas activities, which has enabled PETRONAS to leverage its existing capacity while
at the same time fast-tracking its capability in development and production in a structured manner.

PETRONAS further benefits from the small field risk service contract model because it owns all
exploration and production data and all the other assets acquired and used by the contractors in the
performance of the risk service contracts. Although PETRONAS owns this data and such other assets,
the small field RSC Contractors have the right to use the assets for the duration of the risk service
contracts.

As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS had awarded a total of six small field risk service
contracts. The first of these contracts was awarded in 2011 in relation to the development and
production of the Berantai field, offshore Peninsular Malaysia. The field is operated by Petrofac
Energy Developments Sdn. Bhd., which has a 50% interest, supported by two local partners, Kencana
Energy Sdn. Bhd. and Sapura Energy Ventures Sdn. Bhd., who own the remaining 50% interest in
equal proportions. Other small field risk service contracts awarded by PETRONAS as at December 31,
2014 included the contract awarded to BC Petroleum Sdn. Bhd., a joint venture company comprising
of ROC Oil Malaysia (Holdings) Sdn. Bhd., Dialog Group Bhd. and PETRONAS Carigali Sdn. Bhd.,
in 2011 in relation to the Balai-Bentara cluster offshore Sarawak; the contract awarded to Coastal
Energy KBM Sdn. Bhd. in 2012 in relation to the Kapal, Banang and Meranti cluster; the contract
awarded to Vestigo Petroleum Sdn. Bhd. in 2014 in relation to the Tembikai-Chenang cluster; the
contract awarded to EQ Petroleum Developments Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. and Uzma Energy Venture

63
(Sarawak) Sdn. Bhd. in 2014 in relation to the Tanjung Baram field; and the contract awarded to Ophir
Production Sdn. Bhd., a joint venture company between Octanex Pte Ltd, Scomi D&P Sdn. Bhd., and
Vestigo Petroleum Sdn. Bhd., also in 2014 in relation to the Ophir field. Vestigo Petroleum Sdn. Bhd.
is a subsidiary of PETRONAS established in 2013 for the purposes of accelerating the development
of small, marginal and mature fields in Malaysia and abroad.

Exploration and Development

PETRONAS currently focuses its natural gas development activities in Malaysia on the
development of North Malay Basin and Damar in Peninsular Malaysia and NC3, F14 and Laila in
Sarawak. In addition, PETRONAS is constructing major gas facilities such as the Dalak Pipeline in
Sabah and the Evacuation North Malay Basin Integrated Gas Delivery pipeline in Peninsular Malaysia,
and commissioning is in progress for projects such as the Sabah-Sarawak Gas Pipeline and the
Terengganu Gas Terminal.

PETRONAS currently focuses its oil field development activities in Malaysia on the
development of Tapis EOR and Cendor Phase 2 in Peninsular Malaysia; Greater D18 in Sarawak;
Malikai and Siakap North - Petai, Tembungo EMP, Samarang Redev Phase 2 Infill, Sumandak Tepi
Infill and Zuhal East and Gumusut-Kakap in Sabah.

Production

Natural Gas. As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS had 66 producing gas fields. In the year
ended December 31, 2014, Malaysia’s natural gas production was approximately 2,311 bscf (net of
flaring, venting and reinjection). PETRONAS expects natural gas production in Malaysia to increase
as a result of the development of PETRONAS’ LNG business and the increase in electric power sector
demand.

64
In the year ended December 31, 2014, 96% of the natural gas produced in Malaysia was sold in
domestic and international markets. PETRONAS uses its share of gas production for processing,
liquefaction and sale in the domestic market and overseas. The remaining gas is re-injected or used
for production operations, and the balance is flared. PETRONAS also purchases gas produced by the
PSC Contractors for these uses.

The following table sets forth Malaysia’s annual natural gas production available for sale and
PETRONAS’ share of such production for each of the years in the three-year period ended December
31, 2014:

profit gas and the cash payment for gas sold by PETRONAS on behalf of the Government of Malaysia.

Oil. As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS had 90 producing oil fields in Malaysia. These oil
fields produce 20 blends of crude oil: Abu, Angsi, Anjung, Asam Paya, Balai, Berantai, Bintulu, Bunga
Kekwa, Bunga Orkid, Cendor, Dulang, Kapal, Kidurong, Kikeh, Kimanis, Labuan, Miri Light, Penara,
Sepat and Tapis. All of these blends are of high quality and generally command a premium price over
the benchmark Brent crudes in the global oil market.

In the year ended December 31, 2014, Malaysia’s crude oil and condensates production was
approximately 220 mmbbl, a slight increase from the production of 210 mmbbl in the year ended
December 31, 2013. PETRONAS uses its share of crude oil production for export sales to customers,
principally in the Asia-Pacific region, and for refining and sale of petroleum products. Of
PETRONAS’ share of crude oil production in the year ended December 31, 2014, 61 mmbbl were
exported and 87 mmbbl were processed at PETRONAS’ refineries in Melaka and Kertih and the
remainder was held in inventory.

Tripartite Cooperation Arrangement

In June 2003, PETRONAS signed a production-sharing contract with Perusahaan Pertambangan


Minyak Dan Gas Bumi Negara (“Pertamina”), the national oil company of Indonesia, and
PetroVietnam Investment and Development Company (“PIDC”), a subsidiary of PetroVietnam, the
national oil company of Vietnam, to jointly explore for and develop hydrocarbon resources in Block
SK305 off the shore of Sarawak, Malaysia. Block SK305 is located in water with a depth of 150 meters
in the Balingian Province offshore Sarawak and covers an area of about 15,164 square kilometers.
Under this production-sharing contract, the operators have committed to drilling two exploration
wells, with an option to drill a further two wells, and to acquiring and processing new and reprocessing
existing seismic data. This agreement was entered into to further the cooperation under the Tripartite
Cooperation Arrangement among the three national oil companies. The Tripartite Cooperation
Arrangement is intended to facilitate the transfer and exchange of knowledge and technology among
the three partners assisting in the enhancement and upgrading of skills and expertise.

International E&P Operations

PETRONAS has leveraged upon the extensive operational capabilities it has developed in
Malaysia to expand internationally starting in the early 1990s and now augments its domestic reserves
through its exploration, development and production activities outside Malaysia. PETRONAS
conducts these activities primarily through PETRONAS Carigali Overseas Sdn. Bhd. (“PCOSB”), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of PETRONAS Carigali, as well as through PETRONAS International
Corporation Ltd (“PICL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PETRONAS. PETRONAS’ international
discovered resources of crude oil and gas as a share of PETRONAS’ total discovered resources
increased from 24.7% as at January 1, 2012 to 30.1% as at January 1, 2015. As at December 31, 2014,
PETRONAS, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, participated in 53 international ventures in 24
countries.

In several international production-sharing contracts or concessions, PETRONAS, through its


subsidiaries, is the sole contractor, while in other contracts PETRONAS, through its subsidiaries, is
a member of a consortium of the contractors. As in the case of PETRONAS’ Malaysian
production-sharing contracts, these production-sharing contracts typically provide for the contractors
to share the oil or gas production with the host country in varying ratios typically depending on the
volume of oil or gas produced.

The following table sets forth PETRONAS’ equity share of international natural gas and crude
oil production (excluding Malaysia) for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
2014:

Principal and Strategic Areas of E&P Operations. PETRONAS derives substantial benefit from
the breadth and scale of its international operations and considers several areas to be of strategic
importance to its E&P business. PETRONAS currently has conventional E&P operations in several
principal regions where it believes that it enjoys significant competitive advantages, namely Asia (in
Indonesia, Myanmar and MTJDA), Sudan, South Sudan and Turkmenistan. The Caspian region in
Central Asia has become an increasingly important component of PETRONAS’ E&P activities in
recent years through its exploration, development and production activities in Turkmenistan and its
pending acquisition of a 15.5% interest in the Shah Deniz gas and condensate project in Azerbaijan.

66
PETRONAS is committed to continuing to leverage on existing synergies and to realize further
potential in a number of additional strategic regions of E&P operations, both in conventional and
unconventional oil and gas, including in Africa, the Middle East and Latin America. Within the
unconventional space, through activities in Canada, Australia and China, PETRONAS is accelerating
exploration, development and production in shale oil and gas, tight reservoirs and other
unconventional resources. Unconventional resources such as gas shale, and oil sand, as well as
resources such as geothermal and uranium resources are now increasing targets of exploration and
development, and are rapidly becoming important energy resources that will continue to be developed
in the future. For example, PETRONAS’ joint venture with and subsequent acquisition of Progress in
December 2012 has provided significant long-term strategic gas resources in a geopolitically stable
region, while strengthening its unconventional resource strategy and also reinforcing PETRONAS’
position as a major global LNG player (through establishing a potential new supply base for LNG
exports into Asia).

The following table lists currently producing oil and gas fields outside Malaysia in which
PETRONAS has an interest, either through PCOSB, PICL or through other subsidiaries:

China. In March 2014, PETRONAS, through its wholly-owned subsidiary PETRONAS China
Energy Ltd (“PCEL”), signed a farm-in agreement with Hess China Oil and Gas Ltd. (“Hess China”)
for the Malang Block in Santanghu basin and a joint study and bidding agreement for the Junggar and
Sichuan basins. These basins have been identified as having sizeable unconventional resource
potential. PCEL initially held a 30% participating interest in the Malang Block (with Hess China
holding the remaining 70% interest), but this was relinquished by PCEL later in 2014 due to the
expiration of its exploration permit. PCEL will have a 30% interest in any blocks awarded pursuant
to the joint study and bidding agreement.

Indonesia. PETRONAS’ exploration and production activities in Indonesia began in 2000 with
its first signed production-sharing contract in relation to the Pasemah Block. However, this venture
was brought to an end in 2001 due to unsuccessful exploration results. PETRONAS has, however,
continued to acquire several other blocks and interests in several production-sharing contracts
operated by other oil and gas operators. As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS has interests in seven
production-sharing contracts, three operated by PETRONAS wholly-owned entities and four in which
PETRONAS participates in partnership with other oil and gas operators.

As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS’ upstream entity, PETRONAS Carigali Sdn. Bhd.
(“PCSB”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PETRONAS Carigali (Ketapang) Ltd., holds an 80%
interest in Ketapang Block (with the remaining 20% interest held by Saka Ketapang Perdana). The
Ketapang Block, located at offshore East Java, Indonesia, is currently in the third year of a five-year
development period that began with FID being achieved in respect of the Bukit Tua field in 2012 and
is expected to start producing oil and gas in March 2015.

PETRONAS, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PETRONAS Carigali (Muriah) Ltd, operates
and holds an 80% interest in the Muriah Block, while Saka Energi Exploration Production BV holds
the remaining 20% interest. The block is currently in the development phase and PETRONAS expects
it to achieve its first production in 2016.

PETRONAS, through one of its subsidiaries, also holds a 42.85% interest in the Jabung Block,
located in the South Sumatra Basin, Indonesia. PetroChina International (Jabung) Ltd, the operator of
the Jabung Block, holds a 42.85% interest and PERTAMINA holds a 14.3% interest. The current equity
production rate is approximately 22,560 boepd.

In addition, PETRONAS, through one of its subsidiaries, holds a 15% interest in the Natuna Sea
Block A in Indonesia. Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company holds a 33.3% interest, Natuna
2 BV holds a 23% interest and Premier Oil Natuna Sea BV, the operator, holds a 28.7% interest.
Natuna Sea Block A commenced production in September 2003 and the current equity production rate
is approximately 5,600 boepd.

Another producing block in which PETRONAS has an interest is the Madura Offshore Block.

PETRONAS is in the process of relinquishing its 20% interest in the Surunama Block, as well
as its 60% interest in the West Glagah Kambuna Block and 30% interest in Randugunting Block.

Malaysia-Thailand Joint Development Area (“MTJDA”). The MTJDA is an economic zone in


the lower Gulf of Thailand that covers approximately 7,250 square kilometers, divided into three
blocks. The area is administered by the Malaysia-Thailand Joint Authority. The Malaysian and Thai
Governments are involved in the Malaysia-Thailand Joint Authority, with each holding a 50% interest.
PETRONAS Carigali (JDA) Limited (“PETRONAS Carigali JDA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
PICL, is one of the PSC Contractors undertaking exploration for the Malaysia-Thailand Joint
Authority under three production-sharing contracts, with two contracts signed in April 1994 and
another signed in September 2004. The contract for Block A-18 is held equally by PETRONAS
Carigali JDA and Hess Oil Company of Thailand (JDA) Ltd, and the contracts for Block B-17 , Block
C-19 and Block B-17-1 are held equally by PETRONAS Carigali JDA and PTTEP International
Limited (“PTTEPI”). As at January 1, 2015, PETRONAS’ share of the gas reserves located in Blocks
A-18, B-17, C-19 and B-17-1 of the MTJDA was approximately 2.3 tscf of gas and 38.9 mmbbl of
condensates.

PETRONAS and the Petroleum Authority of Thailand (“PTT”) have concluded a gas sales and
purchase agreement for Block A-18, pursuant to which PETRONAS and PTT purchase gas from the
Malaysia-Thailand Joint Authority and its production-sharing contractors. The gas from the offshore
fields is brought onshore by pipeline and processed by a gas separation plant in Songkhla, Thailand.
The pipeline project, known as the Trans-Thailand-Malaysia Gas Pipeline System, and the gas
separation plant, are jointly developed and operated by PETRONAS and PTT. The pipeline is extended
from Songkhla and connected to the main PGU pipeline at Changlun in Kedah, Malaysia, to deliver
gas to end-users in the power, industrial, commercial and residential sectors in Malaysia. Phase 1 of
Block A-18 was completed in December 2004, yielding an equity production rate of approximately 195
mmscfd. Sales of gas produced from Phase 1 began in the first quarter of 2005 and are delivered
through southern Thailand and sold in the Malaysian domestic market. Phase 2 of Block A-18 was
completed in November 2008 with gas sold into the Thailand domestic market. PTTEPI is the offtaker
of the gas delivered to the Bangkok market. Block A-18 has a current equity production rate as at
December 31, 2014 of approximately 354 mmscfd for gas and 3,440 bpd for condensate.

In June 2005, PETRONAS Carigali JDA and PTTEPI entered into a gas sales agreement with
PTT Public Company Limited for sales of gas produced from Blocks B-17, C-19 and B-17-1.
Carigali-PTTEPI Operating Company Sdn. Bhd. (“CPOC”) successfully delivered its first commercial

completion by the fourth quarter of 2015 and first cargo by the first quarter of 2016. This project’s
scope also covers the execution of an additional LNG tank, pipeline and associated facilities and a new
LNG jetty.

FLNG1. PETRONAS’ first floating LNG project is being developed as a solution to monetize
stranded offshore Sarawak gas reserves. The 1.2 mmtpa nameplate capacity facility is targeted for
deployment at the end of 2015. FLNG1 will be developed and managed by PFLNG 1, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of PETRONAS incorporated in June 2012.

FLNG2. PETRONAS’ planned second floating LNG project is being developed as a solution to
monetize stranded offshore Sabah gas reserves. The 1.5 mmtpa nameplate capacity facility is
scheduled to be in operation in 2018. FLNG2 is developed by PFLNG2, a wholly-owned subsidiary
of PETRONAS incorporated in March 2014 and will be managed and operated by PFLNG1.

International Operations

Australia. PETRONAS, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PETRONAS Australia Pty Ltd
(“PAPL”) Group, acquired a 40% interest in the GLNG Project, an integrated unconventional coal
seam gas (“CSG”)-to-LNG project in Queensland, Australia, from Santos, an ASX-listed Australian
oil and gas exploration and production company in May 2008. In 2010, PAPL and Santos sold down
12.5% and 30% of their respective 40% and 60% interests to two other partners, namely Total and
KOGAS, resulting in Santos currently holding a 30% interest, PAPL and Total each holding a 27.5%
interest and KOGAS holding the remaining 15% interest in the GLNG Project.

The project involves the development of upstream CSG fields in the Fairview, Roma, Arcadia and
Scotia areas, the construction of a 420 kilometers Gas Transmission Pipeline (“GTP”) and a two-train
7.8 mmtpa LNG liquefaction facility on Curtis Island. As at December 2014, the project is more than
90% complete, with the first LNG cargo from train 1 expected in the second half of 2015.

PETRONAS has committed to buy 1.5 mmtpa of LNG from train 1 and a further 1.5 mmtpa from
train 2, with call options for a further 0.67 mmtpa across the two trains. Similarly, KOGAS has
committed to take 1.5 mmtpa from each train and has call options for a further 0.5 mmtpa across the
two trains. Total volume linked to PETRONAS and KOGAS is 7.17 mmtpa, with an annual contract
quantity (“ACQ”) of 6 mmtpa and 1.17 mmtpa of call volume. The sellers of the LNG are the 4 GLNG
Project participants: Santos, PAPL, Total and KOGAS, each in their respective project ownership
percentages. PAPL’s participation in the GLNG project marks PETRONAS’ first investment in coal
seam gas assets and is expected to further strengthen PETRONAS’ position in the global LNG market.

78
Canada. PETRONAS via its wholly-owned subsidiary, Progress, operates and owns the North

In its refinery operations in Malaysia, PETRONAS produces a wide range of petroleum products
for both domestic consumption and export, including LPG, naphtha, gasoline, jet fuel, kerosene,
diesel, base oil, low sulfur waxy residue, fuel oil and special products.

Melaka Refinery Complex. The Melaka Refinery Complex has two refining trains. PETRONAS
Penapisan (Melaka) Sdn. Bhd. (“PP(M)SB”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PETRONAS, owns and
operates the first train (“PSR-1”), which commenced operations in 1994 and has a current refining
capacity of 130,000 bpd of light sweet crude. It also includes a condensate splitting facility.

Malaysian Refining Company Sdn. Bhd. (“MRC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PETRONAS


since January 1, 2015, owns the second train (“PSR-2”), which commenced operations in 1999 and
is also operated by PP(M)SB. PSR-2, which has a current refining capacity of 180,000 bpd, possesses
the ability to process relatively heavier imported sour crude. This range of process capability provides
PETRONAS with flexibility in sourcing crude oil for its refining operations, allowing it the
opportunity to capture the higher margins offered by the complex refining operations for sour crude.
PETRONAS completed its acquisition of Phillips66 Asia Ltd.’s 47% interest in MRC on December 31,
2014, giving it full control of the Melaka Refinery Complex, potentially enabling PETRONAS to
achieve improvements in operational efficiency and related synergies.

PP(M)SB also operates a Group III base oil refining (MG3) plant in the Melaka Refinery
Complex. The MG3 plant uses a high waxy feedstock sourced from PSR-1 and the Kertih Refinery to
produce superior quality Group III base oil to be used as feedstock for lubricants. The MG3 plant was
the first Group III base oil facility in Malaysia and serves automotive and industrial lubricant
manufacturers in the domestic and international markets, with particular focus on the Asian and
European markets. The MG3 plant began operation in November 2008 and has a base oil production
capacity of approximately 6,500 bpd.

81
Kertih Refinery. PETRONAS Penapisan (Terengganu) Sdn. Bhd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
PETRONAS, owns and operates the Kertih Refinery. The Kertih Refinery, PETRONAS’ first refinery,
was commissioned in 1983 and has a current refining capacity of 124,659 bpd of Malaysian light sweet
crude. The Kertih Refinery also includes a condensate splitting facility. The naphtha produced at the
Kertih Refinery is used as feedstock for the aromatics plant adjacent to the Kertih Refinery. See
“—Petrochemical Business—Kertih IPC.”

Bintulu LPG Extraction Facility. PETRONAS owns an LPG extraction facility in Bintulu,
Sarawak, located in the vicinity of PETRONAS’ LNG plants to dovetail with PETRONAS’ LNG
production process. The facility is operated by MLNG and is designed to extract 560,000 tpa of LPG
from the LNG production process. The facility commenced operation in October 1998. PETRONAS
uses a dedicated LPG jetty to export the LPG to Japan, India, Korea, the Philippines, Vietnam and
Hong Kong and also sells LPG domestically in East Malaysia.

International Operations

South Africa. PETRONAS has an oil refining presence in Africa through its 80% owned
subsidiary Engen. Engen owns and operates a fully integrated refinery in Durban, South Africa, with
approximately 100,000 bpd of current crude refining capacity. PETRONAS manages the crude
sourcing for Engen’s refinery. Pembani (formerly Worldwide African Investments (Pty) Ltd.)
indirectly holds the other 20% interest in Engen.

Marketing

Domestic Operations

PETRONAS Dagangan Berhad (“PDB”), a 69.86% owned subsidiary of PETRONAS, is the


principal domestic marketing arm of PETRONAS. PDB was listed on Bursa Malaysia in 1994 and had
a market capitalization of approximately RM17.1 billion as at December 31, 2014. PDB markets a
wide range of petroleum products, including gasoline, LPG, jet fuel, kerosene, diesel, fuel oil, asphalt
and lubricants. PDB had a network of 1,057 service stations, 8 LPG bottling plants, 17 bulk storage
depots, 13 aviation depots and 14 bunkering facilities in Malaysia as at December 31, 2014.

In the year ended December 31, 2014, PDB had a market-leading position in Malaysia with an
estimated 41% share in the Malaysian retail, commercial and LPG market for petroleum products.
PDB competes with other oil companies such as Shell, Petron, Caltex and BHPetrol in the marketing
and distribution of petroleum products in the Malaysian retail market. These competitors either
operate refineries in Malaysia or have access to refining capacity in Singapore. These same companies
also compete for sales of fuel to industrial users and government agencies. The Government of
Malaysia regulates retail prices of gasoline, diesel and LPG in Malaysia and fixes the price of these
products for end-buyers, although in November 2014 the Government announced changes to its fuel
price regulations that have resulted in more market-based prices for end-users.

PDB and Shell each own a 50% interest in PS Pipeline Sdn. Bhd., which operates a Multi-Product
Pipeline and the Klang Valley Distribution Terminal (“MPP-KVDT”) located south of Kuala Lumpur.
The pipeline is used to transport gasoline, jet fuel and diesel oil from PETRONAS’ Melaka Refinery
Complex and Shell’s and Petron’s refineries in Port Dickson to the MPP-KVDT.

PDB also indirectly owns a 65% interest in Kuala Lumpur Aviation Fuelling System Sdn. Bhd.,
a joint venture that operates a jet fuel storage facility and hydrant line system at the Kuala Lumpur
International Airport in Sepang.

International Operations

PETRONAS has a focused and disciplined strategy to marketing its products internationally. It
seeks to maintain a strategic foothold in neighboring markets in South and Southeast Asia, primarily

82
through the marketing operations of PDB’s subsidiaries, in order to optimize distribution channels and
maximize sales of its products in the region. PETRONAS also has marketing operations in South
Africa and other parts of Africa, where it has an oil refining presence, and in Sudan and South Sudan,
where its upstream business is involved in exploration and production; in each case, PETRONAS’
marketing activities dovetail with its business operations.

South and Southeast Asia. PETRONAS actively markets its products in several countries in
South and Southeast Asia. In Indonesia, it markets petroleum products such as bitumen, sulfur,
petroleum coke and LPG to industrial and commercial customers through a wholly-owned subsidiary
using reputable local partners with strategically located assets. In Vietnam, it primarily engages in
wholesale buying, selling, storing, distributing and marketing LPG through a wholly-owned subsidiary
of PDB. PDB also stores and markets LPG in the Philippines, and markets lubricants in Thailand, in
each case through a wholly-owned subsidiary. Finally, PETRONAS has a marketing presence in India
through a 50:50 joint venture that imports, stores, bottles and markets LPG in the country through two
LPG terminals, one in West Bengal with a storage capacity of 31,500 metric tons and another in Tamil
Nadu with a storage capacity of 33,200 metric tons.

South Africa. PETRONAS has a marketing presence in Africa through its 80% owned subsidiary
Engen, which also owns and operates an oil refinery. Engen is the leading retailer and marketer of
petroleum products in South Africa with more than 1,000 service stations. Engen’s primary focus is
the production and marketing of fuels and oils for industrial and automotive applications. Engen also
owns more than 400 service stations in other African countries, including Namibia, Botswana,
Burundi, Kenya, Mozambique, Lesotho and Swaziland. Marketing margins in South Africa are set by
the government through price controls, which take into account long-term and spot market prices of
refined petroleum products from refineries in the Middle East and Singapore. Pembani (formerly
Worldwide African Investments (Pty) Ltd.) indirectly holds the other 20% interest in Engen.

Sudan and South Sudan. Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, PETRONAS is engaged in the
marketing and retailing of petroleum products and lubricants in Sudan. It operates four petroleum
depots in Sudan, located in Port Sudan, Shagara, Gaili and El-Obeid, and owns and operates 86 service
stations in Sudan. Since its acquisition of Shell’s aviation business in Sudan in July 2005, PETRONAS
has provided into-plane service at Khartoum International Airport and at El-Obeid International
Airport, the main base for the UN World Food Programme’s operations in Sudan. In 2008 and again
in 2012, PETRONAS, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, was awarded the fuel contract for the
United Nations-African Union Mission peacekeeping force in Darfur and operates refueling stations
and depots across the region. Following the secession of South Sudan from the Republic of Sudan in
July 2011, PETRONAS incorporated a new subsidiary to engage in the marketing and retailing of
petroleum products and lubricants in South Sudan. In 2012, this subsidiary acquired a 60% interest in
PETRONAS Petal Limited, a joint venture with local partner T-Alpha who holds the remaining 40%
interest.

PGB owns, operates and maintains the gas processing facilities, gas transmission pipeline and
related facilities. Pursuant to an agreement with PETRONAS, PGB provides throughput service for the
processing of PETRONAS’ gas and transmits gas to PETRONAS’ customers.

The PGU pipelines, which recorded average reliability rates of 99.9% in the year ended
December 31, 2014, transported 2,283 mmscfd in 2014. The power sector was the largest consumer
of gas transmitted through the PGU pipelines, accounting for 1,283 mmscfd, or 56% of the total dry
gas delivered during the year. Power sector consumers include electric power generators such as

86
Tenaga Nasional Berhad and independent power producers in Malaysia. The balance of the gas is sold
to Senoko and Keppel of Singapore and industrial users such as PETRONAS’ petrochemical plants and
Gas Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (“Gas Malaysia”). Contracts for the sale of processed dry gas are entered into
between PETRONAS and the respective end-users and are generally long term, ranging from 15 to 20
years.

The PGU system has also facilitated the use of processed gas by smaller industries and
residential end-users, which accounted for 882 mmscfd in the year ended December 31, 2014. The
sales and distribution of natural gas to smaller industries and residential end-users is undertaken by
Gas Malaysia, which was established in 1992. Gas Malaysia distributes gas from the PGU pipeline to
individual industrial, commercial and residential locations in Peninsular Malaysia. PGB holds a 20%
interest, MMC-Shapadu (Holdings) Sdn. Bhd. holds a 55% interest and Tokyo Gas-Mitsui & Co.
Holdings Sdn. Bhd. holds a 25% interest in Gas Malaysia.

PGB also completed its first LNG regasification terminal in Sungai Udang, Melaka in 2013, a
3.8 MTPA facility, to receive LNG imported by PETRONAS for the domestic Peninsular Malaysia
market. The LNG regasification terminal has diversified PETRONAS’ sources of natural gas supply,
that is, LNG in addition to piped natural gas from offshore of Terengganu. The terminal also enhances
the security of gas supply by PETRONAS to its customers in Peninsular Malaysia. PETRONAS has
recently undertaken a project in connection with this regasification terminal in order to maximize the
pipe gas supply and reduce the LNG send-out rate through the elimination of boil-off gas flaring
during turn downs of the terminal, which could result in potentially significant cost savings for
PETRONAS. PETRONAS is targeting completion of this project in the final quarter of 2016.

Overseas Pipelines

Malaysia-Thailand Joint Development Area. PETRONAS owns a 50% interest in each of Trans
Thai-Malaysia (Thailand) Limited and Trans Thai-Malaysia (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. which together
operate a 425 mmscfd gas processing plant in Songkhla, Thailand, 330 kilometers of offshore pipeline
and 98 kilometers of onshore pipeline to process and transmit natural gas from the Malaysia-Thailand
Joint Development Area to Thailand and Malaysia. The companies also own and operate 240
kilometers of LPG pipeline to transport LPG from its gas processing plant to PETRONAS’ LPG depot
in Prai, Penang.

Indonesia. PETRONAS, through its subsidiary PICL, owns a 35% interest in Transasia Pipeline
Company Pvt. Ltd. (“Transasia”), a joint venture with ConocoPhillips, Talisman Energy and
Singapore Petroleum. Transasia owns a 40% interest in PT Transportasi Gas Indonesia, which owns
and operates 467 kilometers of onshore pipeline and offshore gas transmission pipeline and 536
kilometers of onshore gas transmission pipeline for the transportation of gas produced from the
Corridor Block at Grissik and Jabung Block at Jambi (both in South Sumatra) to Duri Sumatra,
Indonesia, and Singapore.

Power and Utilities

As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS’ I&U business had approximately 815MW of power
generation capacity in its portfolio. The centralized utility facilities (“CUFs”) that are owned and
operated by PGB generate a significant proportion of this capacity — approximately 264MW — for
the purpose of servicing PETRONAS’ petrochemicals complexes and industrial utilities in Kertih and
Gebeng. In 2012, Kimanis Power Sdn. Bhd, a joint venture company between PGB (60%) and Sabah
state (40%) was established to develop a 300 MW gas-fired power plant in Kimanis, Sabah. The
Kimanis Power Plant was completed and started to supply power to its customer in Sabah in November
2014. PETRONAS, through PETRONAS Power Sdn. Bhd (“PPSB”), also owns a 30% interest in
PacificLight Power Pte Ltd, which owns and operates a 800MW gas-fired power plant in Jurong
Island, Singapore that sells power to the Singapore market. PPSB also owns and operates a solar farm
in Gebeng, Pahang, through its joint venture company, Voltage Renewables Sdn. Bhd., to supply
approximately 10MW power to Tenaga Nasional Berhad.

87
In terms of utilities, the CUFs provide water treatment services and produce steam,
demineralized water and industrial gases (oxygen and nitrogen) for sale to PETRONAS
petrochemicals complexes in Kertih and Gebeng. PGB also markets and sells industrial gases
produced by CUFs within the Gebeng Industrial Area through a 50:50 joint venture with MOX Gases
Sdn. Bhd., Industrial Gases Solution Sdn. Bhd. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the CUFs
produced and supplied 422 million Nm 3 of nitrogen, 204 Nm 3 of oxygen and 4.2 million MT of steam
to their customers.

TECHNICAL AND ENGINEERING DIVISION

PETRONAS’ Technology and Engineering Division (the “T&E Division”) was established in
May 2010 and integrated into the downstream business, replacing the Research and Technology
Division (“R&T Division”) formed in 2006 as a support function that operated outside of the
downstream business. Accordingly, the T&E Division integrated and centralized PETRONAS’ project
management, category management, engineering and technology functions and established a single
internal technical service provider servicing both the upstream and downstream businesses. Much like
its predecessor, the T&E Division utilizes a combination of its research and engineering expertise to
help PETRONAS improve its operational performance and achieve key milestones in the development
of new technologies.

The T&E Division includes the following four departments:

Project management. PETRONAS’ Project Management and Delivery Department (“PMDD”)


leads the Integrated Project Management Team (“iPMT”), which includes project management,
engineering and procurement personnel, as well as representatives from the upstream and downstream
businesses. Working together, the PMDD and iPMT focus on the management of various upstream and
downstream business projects and ventures.

Category management. PETRONAS’ Project Procurement Management Department and


PrimeSourcing International Sdn. Bhd. lead the management of and strategic sourcing for key
equipment and material, focusing on product standardisation, achieving cost savings, improving
supplier support, as well as developing local capabilities in Malaysia for sustainable operation support
for key equipment and material.

Technical services and solutions. PETRONAS’ Group Technical Solutions Department


(“GTSD”) provides engineering capabilities in executing Basic Engineering Design (BED), Front End
Engineering Design (FEED) and Detailed Engineering Design (DED) works for PETRONAS projects.
In addition, the GTSD delivers value-adding services and solutions to PETRONAS projects, with a
focus on asset integrity management and operational optimization services and solutions aimed at
improving the reliability, safety and operational performance of PETRONAS’ plants and facilities.
Finally, the GTSD also has significant involvement in the de-risking and up-scaling of PETRONAS’
new technologies, as well as in the deployment of these technologies in PETRONAS’ plants and
operations.

Technology development and commercialization. PETRONAS’ Technology Management


Department manages the technology research and development (“R&D”) program for PETRONAS’
businesses. PETRONAS’ R&D program currently focuses on seven key areas: seismic imaging,
enhanced oil recovery, carbon dioxide management, contaminants removal, advanced materials,
sustainability and flow assurance.

PETRONAS Research Sdn. Bhd. a wholly-owned subsidiary of PETRONAS, undertakes R&D


support services for its upstream and downstream businesses, as well as the PSC Contractors and other
corporations. It carries out business-driven R&D projects, covering primarily petroleum exploration
and production, product development and process technology, and also provides value-added technical
consultancy and laboratory services.

88
The Group Technology Commercialization Management team, supported by PETRONAS
Technology Ventures Sdn. Bhd., is responsible for the management and protection of PETRONAS’
intellectual property rights and technology commercialization once a particular technology moves
beyond the R&D stage and is ready to enter the market.

The R&T Division, and now the T&E Division, have also forged strategic alliances with leading
technology players and collaborate with universities in Malaysia and other countries to further boost
PETRONAS’ strategic and competitive position in the areas of R&D and technology application.

PENGERANG INTEGRATED COMPLEX

PETRONAS achieved FID in April 2014 with respect to the Pengerang Integrated Complex
(“PIC”), the largest integrated refinery and petrochemical greenfield development in Malaysia,
occupying an area of over 6,000 acres in Pengerang. This state-of-the-art project, which is one part
of Johor State’s planned Pengerang Integrated Petroleum Complex, includes RAPID and a number of
major associated facilities including, among others, a regasification terminal, a cogeneration plant, an
air separation unit and a liquid bulk terminal.

The RAPID project involves the construction of an integrated refinery and petrochemicals
complex for the production of various petroleum and petrochemical products, including premium
differentiated and specialty petrochemicals using naphtha as feedstock. When complete, it will be
PETRONAS’ largest IPC, bigger in scale than its existing IPCs at Kertih and Gebeng and the Melaka
Refinery Complex combined. Its production is expected to be marketed to customers in Malaysia,
Southeast Asia and Asia Pacific.

The first stage of RAPID, a crude oil refinery with a processing capacity of 300,000 bpd for the
production of petroleum products such as gasoline, jet fuel, diesel and fuel oil, is expected to be
commissioned in 2019. In addition to related infrastructure such as pipelines, tankages and other
logistics and warehousing facilities, RAPID will also include:

• a naphtha cracker with a combined annual production capacity of approximately 3 million


tons of ethylene, propylene, C4 and C5 olefins;

• a petrochemicals and polymer complex for differentiated and highly-specialized products,


namely propylene and ethylene oxide derivatives, phenol and bisphenol A, differentiated
polypropylene and polyethylene, surfactants and additives for lubricants; and

• C4 (butane) and C5 (pentanes) derivatives complexes focusing on various grades of


synthetic rubbers.

In light of the potential for sustainable growth, we believe that PIC will give PETRONAS the
opportunity to position itself as a leader in Asia’s chemical products market, where PETRONAS sees
increasing demand for high-end specialty chemicals, and to establish PETRONAS’ presence in the
rapidly developing automotive, pharmaceutical and consumer products sectors.

Specifically, PIC has several key competitive advantages:

• Enhanced integration and supply chain optimization. Through RAPID and the overall PIC
facility, PETRONAS aims to leverage its operating capabilities to create synergistic value
within its downstream business through significantly enhanced integration and supply chain
optimization. For example, the large-scale convergence of PETRONAS’ refinery and
petrochemicals operations is expected to minimize processing costs and optimize product
distribution, and the configuration of the refinery and naphtha cracker has been designed
specifically to optimize petrochemical feedstock supply availability within PIC.

89
• State-of-the art and energy-efficient technologies. The optimization of the supply chain,
which facilitates competitive pricing, is expected to be further enhanced by the deployment
of state-of-the-art technologies in the refinery, cracker and petrochemical complexes, as
well as energy-efficient technologies such as cogeneration. The deployment of
energy-efficient technologies, we believe, positions PETRONAS for future developments in
the industry, including the possible introduction of legislation implementing the Euro 4M
Diesel and Mogas specification in the context of the Malaysian government’s Energy
Efficient Vehicles program and broader commitment to the Kyoto Protocol.

• Synergistic partnerships. As the PIC project continues through its development phase,
PETRONAS intends to evaluate possible strategic partnerships from time to time. As and
when PETRONAS enters into such arrangements, it expects to benefit from certain
synergies including access to additional international markets and technology and
production know-how, as well as enhanced operational efficiencies and project de-risking
through cost sharing. Meanwhile, our partners will benefit from access to attractively
priced feedstock, integrated production facilities and close proximity to key Asian markets.

• Strategically located. The PIC project is strategically located in an area of over 6,000 acres
in Pengerang with a natural deep water harbor in a safe and sheltered location, access to
major existing shipping lanes, availability of significant areas of land for development and
close proximity to target markets within Asia, such as Indonesia.

• Robust products marketing strategy. The development of PIC is supported by a robust and
detailed products marketing strategy involving the supply of products to meet PIC’s captive
requirements, as well as demand in Malaysia and other Asia Pacific markets. The vast
majority of the refinery’s petroleum products will service PIC’s captive requirements and
the domestic market, while its chemical products will be used to meet both domestic
demand and international demand, from China and other Southeast Asian markets.

• Special tax incentives. As a result of its scale and pioneering status, PIC is expected to
benefit from special tax incentives that will improve the overall financial performance of
the project. For example, it is anticipated that the project will qualify for, among other
things, income tax allowances, deductions for pre-commencement expenses and exemptions
for withholding tax, stamp duty and customs duty.

CORPORATE AND OTHER BUSINESSES

LOGISTICS AND MARITIME BUSINESS

PETRONAS’ corporate and other business division primarily consists of its 62.67% interest in
MISC, a leading international maritime company in Malaysia with a primary focus on energy
transportation and logistics and other energy-related businesses. MISC is listed on the Main Board of
Bursa Malaysia and had a market capitalization of RM32.2 billion as at December 31, 2014. MISC
serves as PETRONAS’ primary LNG transportation provider and its principal logistics solutions
provider, both for customers and also in support of PETRONAS’ own marketing and trading activities.
MISC’s fleet consists of 27 LNG carriers, 2 floating storage units, 75 petroleum tankers, 14 chemical
tankers and 14 floating facilities for use in offshore oil production as at December 31, 2014.

MISC’s core business is its energy-related shipping, which includes LNG, petroleum and
chemical shipping. MISC is the second largest single owner-operator of LNG tankers in the world.
Nineteen of its LNG tankers are on 20-year time charters to MLNG for the transport of LNG to
MLNG’s customers in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. Another four of its LNG tankers are being chartered
to PETRONAS LNG Ltd. for its LNG spot trading business, while two have recently been converted
into floating storage units for use at PETRONAS’ regasification plant in Malacca. The remaining two
LNG carriers are currently chartered to third parties.

90
MISC’s energy-related shipping is complemented by its offshore business and its heavy
engineering business. MISC’s offshore business provides floating production storage and offloading
units (“FPSOs”) and floating storage offloading units (“FSOs”) systems to support oil and gas
companies operating offshore in the production, storage and evacuation of oil and gas. These types of
facilities, which include both wholly-owned and jointly owned units, enable commercial oil
production and storage in more remote areas and in deeper water areas. MISC started its offshore
floating facilities business with the conversion of an MISC-owned petroleum tanker into an FPSO in
2003 and, as at December 31, 2014, operated a total of four FSOs, five FPSOs, two mobile offshore
production units and one semi-submersible floating production system.

MISC’s petroleum arm, AET Tanker Holdings, serves international oil companies, refiners and
traders in the transportation of crude oil and petroleum products, as well as specialist sectors such as
dynamic positioning shuttle tankers and marine well containment logistics. MISC operated one of the
largest owned fleet of Aframax oil tankers in the world as at December 31, 2014.

MISC entered into the tank terminal business in 2007 via a joint venture with Dialog Group
Berhad to develop and operate the Tanjung Langsat terminals, which currently have a total capacity
of 647,000 cubic meters. Later, in April 2014, MISC expanded its tank terminals portfolio through a
partnership with energy trader, Vitol Holding B.V., the general partner of VTTI Energy Partners LP
(“VTTI”). Today, VTTI is one of the world’s fastest growing energy storage businesses. The terminals
are strategically located at key hub and spoke locations around the world. MISC’s total terminal
capacity is approximately 8.3 million cubic meters. Vitol Holding B.V. recently listed part of its
portfolio comprising of 6 storage terminals with 396 tanks, located in Europe, the Middle East and
North Africa, in a Master Limited Partnership in the U.S. The total capacity of these terminals is 35.5
million barrels of refined petroleum product and crude oil. VTTI listed on the New York Stock
Exchange in August 2014 and had a market capitalization of approximately US$1.0 billion as at
December 31, 2014.

MISC, through its subsidiary, Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Holdings Berhad
(“MHB”), provides a wide range of oil and gas production facilities and services in offshore
construction, offshore conversion and marine repair. MHB reached a milestone when Gumusut-Kakap
semi-submersible floating production system, Asia Pacific’s largest floating production system was
completed in 2013. MHB was listed on the Main Board of the Bursa Malaysia in 2010 and had a
market capitalization of approximately RM2.9 billion as at December 31, 2014.

MISC also wholly owns and manages Akedemi Laut Malaysia, a maritime academy that provides
in-house maritime education and training for its employees as well as to other maritime industry
participants.

REAL ESTATE

In addition to its core logistics and maritime business, PETRONAS’ corporate and other business
division also holds certain interests in real estate located in Malaysia.

Kuala Lumpur City Centre

PETRONAS owns 100% of KLCC Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (“KLCC Holdings”), a company that
develops and manages real estate properties in the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (“KLCC”). In February
2004, KLCC Property Holdings Berhad (“KLCC Property”), was incorporated as a public limited
company in Malaysia. In May 2004, KLCC Property acquired KLCC Holdings’ interests in the KLCC
real estate, that is, PETRONAS Twin Towers, Suria KLCC Shopping Mall, The Mandarin Oriental
Kuala Lumpur, Menara ExxonMobil and Menara Maxis, as well as two vacant lots. KLCC Property
was listed on the Main Board of the Bursa Malaysia in August 2004 and had a market capitalization
of RM12.1 billion as at December 31, 2014. In 2013, KLCC Property undertook a corporate
restructuring exercise involving the restructuring of the KLCC Property group into a stapled structure
known as “KLCC Stapled Group” resulting in an offering of units in an islamic real estate investment

91
trust (the “KLCC REIT”) being stapled together with the ordinary shares of KLCC Property
(“KLCCP Stapled Securities”). In May 2013, KLCCP Stapled Securities were listed under the
“REITS” sector of the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia. As at December 31, 2014, each of KLCC
Holdings and PETRONAS owned 64.68% and 10.80% of the listed issuers, KLCC Property and KLCC
Stapled Securities, respectively.

The KLCC development is located on 100 acres of prime land situated in the commercial hub of
Kuala Lumpur. Sixty acres of the site has been designated for a public park and open spaces, with the
remaining forty acres allocated for commercial development over 15 to 20 years. Dewan Bandaraya
Kuala Lumpur approved the 1995 KLCC Masterplan with 18.3 million square feet gross floor area
which was revised upwards to 25.7 million square feet gross floor area in 2012. As at December 31,
2014, more than 26.7 acres had been commercially developed. KLCC is an integrated and mixed
commercial development with office, convention and exhibition, retail, hotel, residential and
recreational facilities within a park setting.

PETRONAS’ corporate headquarters is located in Tower One of the 88-story PETRONAS Twin
Towers, which form the most prominent feature of the KLCC development. The PETRONAS Twin
Towers were completed in early 1997, and with a height of 451.9 meters, were then the tallest
buildings in the world. Upon completion of the corporate restructuring exercise of KLCC Property
described above, the real estate held by the subsidiaries of KLCC Property, namely PETRONAS Twin
Towers, Menara ExxonMobil and Menara 3 PETRONAS, were transferred to the KLCC REIT.

KLCC Holdings, in partnership with Qatari Diar Real Estate Investment Co, the investment arm
of the Qatari Investment Authority, is currently developing two new tower blocks in KLCC. These new
tower blocks will contain office space with additional capacity for a hotel and retail stores. KLCC
Holdings is also developing a third tower block in KLCC in partnership with Sapura Resources
Berhad. This third tower will contain office space and an exhibition podium. All three tower blocks
are expected to be completed in 2019.

Putrajaya

PETRONAS, through KLCC Holdings, holds a 64.4% interest in Putrajaya Holdings Sdn. Bhd.
(“PJH”). PJH holds various subsidiaries that engage in the business of construction, property
development and property management. Khazanah Nasional Berhad holds a 15.6% interest and
Kumpulan Wang Amanah Negara holds a 20% interest in PJH.

PJH is the master-developer for the development of Putrajaya, the new federal administrative
city of Malaysia, which has been under development since the early 1990s. PJH is expected to
formulate, plan, implement and fund the continuing development of Putrajaya for the Government of
Malaysia. The Putrajaya development plan covers 20 precincts, which are being developed in three
phases, and two major areas, the core area and the periphery area. The core area consists of five
precincts, including the Government precinct and other civic and cultural, commercial, sports and
recreational, and mixed development precincts, linked by a 4.2 kilometer boulevard. The project is
located approximately 25 kilometers south of Kuala Lumpur and approximately 20 kilometers north
of the Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

EDUCATION

PETRONAS’ presence and contribution in the field of education and training are reflected in the
wide spectrum of its programs and training facilities. These range from the sponsorship of students
in secondary schools and institutions of higher learning, both local and overseas, to the programs
offered by its various educational and training institutions, namely Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS
(“UTP”), Institut Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (“INSTEP”), Akademi Laut Malaysia (“ALAM”),
PETRONAS Leadership Center (“PLC”) and PETROSAINS, a science discovery center.

92
UTP is one of Malaysia’s premier science and technology institutions of higher learning,
providing students with opportunities for the pursuit of knowledge, expertise and advancement in the
fields of engineering, science and technology. Established in 1997 in Tronoh Perak, its objective is to
produce graduates who are competent in technical knowledge and also possess the creative aptitude
and leadership skills needed to take on the challenges of the competitive global marketplace.

INSTEP was established in 1981. Its focus is on providing technical training for employees
within PETRONAS as well as other companies in the oil and gas industry. Over time, it has grown to
become the world’s first integrated oil and gas training center, with a well-equipped technical training
facility spread over 200 acres in Batu Rakit, Kuala Terengganu including an upstream and downstream
training plant which allows the simulation of a real working environment.

ALAM is Malaysia’s premier maritime education and training institution for the development of
seafaring professionals. Established in 1977, the academy is a comprehensive one-stop maritime
educational and training center located in a well-developed 74 acres campus located in Kuala Linggi,
Melaka. Working in collaboration with companies and institutions in the maritime industry, ALAM has
helped over 12,000 seafarers prepare for the demanding career challenges of the maritime profession.

PLC as started as an internal training department in 1979 before it became known as PERMATA
in 1992. With over 30 years of experience, PLC has quickly established itself as a top corporate
learning hub for industry leaders including PETRONAS management. PLC provides a wide range of
learning consultancy and advisory services and innovative learning solutions for transformational
learning experiences covering all aspects of management and leadership. In 2012, it was awarded the
national Pembangunan Sumber Manusia Award 2012 for best training provider.

PETROSAINS is an interactive science discovery center in KLCC, which opened in 1999. It


provides an environment for experiential learning of science and technology, with particular focus on
petroleum science. The exhibits are designed especially to inspire young people and stimulate their
interest in science, technology, math and engineering.

INSURANCE

PETRONAS has comprehensive insurance policies that cover its business and properties and
litigation brought by third parties. PETRONAS employs a risk management policy for purposes of
analyzing the risks faced by its businesses in determining the appropriate insurance policies and the
adequacy of the insurance coverage. PETRONAS’ coverage includes property damage, third party
liability and group term life assurance. PETRONAS considers its insurance coverage to be in
accordance with industry standards.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

PETRONAS has established a HSE Mandatory Control Framework that contains, among other
things, its own detailed environmental requirements applicable to all of PETRONAS’ activities,
including environmental impact assessment studies, oil spill contingency plans, post-environmental
impact assessment monitoring, environmental auditing and inspections, environmental studies and
monitoring of all PETRONAS’ projects. These internal requirements seek to address, among other
things, the environmental laws and regulations which PETRONAS is subject to both in Malaysia and
other countries in which it operates. Management believes that PETRONAS is in compliance in all
material respects with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. However, some risk of
environmental costs and liabilities is inherent in the operations of PETRONAS, as it is with all
companies in the oil and gas industry, and there can be no assurance that material costs and liabilities
will not be incurred in the future.

93
HUMAN RESOURCES

As at December 31, 2014, PETRONAS and its subsidiaries employed a total of 50,949 people,
compared to 49,193 people and 46,145 people as at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012,
respectively. A total of 8,766 of PETRONAS’ non-executive employees belong to six of its in-house
union in Malaysia. Four of which signed the Collective Agreement directly with PETRONAS and the
other two with respective subsidiaries. PETRONAS’ collective bargaining agreements typically have
a term of three years. Management believes it generally has a good relationship with its employees and
with its in-house union.

PETRONAS and its employees contribute to the Employee Provident Fund (“EPF”), a mandatory
employee retirement fund administered by a board appointed by the Government of Malaysia. The
contribution to the EPF is based on a prescribed percentage of the employee’s monthly salary, where
the employee and PETRONAS contribute 11% and 12%, respectively. PETRONAS also provides
additional contributions of 3%, 5% and 7% above the 12% statutory contribution. The amount of these
additional contributions is relative to the employee’s length of service with PETRONAS.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In 2010, the Kelantan State Government brought a legal suit against PETRONAS in the High
Court of Malaysia alleging that PETRONAS has failed to make payments of petroleum proceeds under
the terms of the agreement entered into in 1975 between the Kelantan State Government and
PETRONAS. In response, PETRONAS applied for an order that the suit brought by the Kelantan State
Government cannot proceed without determination of certain points of law, the primary point being
the Kelantan State Government’s rights to petroleum produced offshore its coast. The Kelantan State
Government has challenged PETRONAS’ application for the order. The High Court decided in favor
of PETRONAS regarding its application and the Kelantan State Government appealed to the Court of
Appeals. The appeal was dismissed and the Kelantan State Government subsequently further appealed
to the Federal Court, and in July 2014, the Federal Court upheld the decisions of the High Court and
the Court of Appeal. In light of the above, the legal suit will now proceed on the merits on the case
at a future date. PETRONAS has been advised by its solicitors that PETRONAS has a meritorious
defense to the claim.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their businesses, PETRONAS and its subsidiaries are
parties to legal proceedings and potential disputes with, among others, their customers, suppliers and
contractual counterparties.

RELATIONSHIP WITH THE GOVERNMENT OF MALAYSIA

PETRONAS was established by the Government of Malaysia pursuant to the Malaysia Petroleum
Development Act, 1974 to own and manage the petroleum resources of Malaysia and was incorporated
under the Malaysia Companies Act, 1965 on August 17, 1974. PETRONAS’ Articles of Association
provide that the Government of Malaysia is the only entity entitled to be a shareholder of PETRONAS.

Under the Malaysian Companies Act 1965, as owner of PETRONAS, the Government of
Malaysia controls the approval of all corporate matters that require shareholder resolutions, including,
but not limited to, approval of dividends, the appointment of the Chairman of PETRONAS and any
change of auditor. Currently, two Government of Malaysia officials serve on PETRONAS’ Board of
Directors, namely the Secretary General of Treasury, Ministry of Finance and the Deputy Governor of
Bank Negara Malaysia.

PETRONAS plays an important role in the implementation of the Government of Malaysia’s oil
and gas policy. In addition to its relationship with the Government of Malaysia as its shareholder,
PETRONAS consults informally with the Government of Malaysia on matters relating to energy policy
and central planning. Since its incorporation, PETRONAS has played an integral role in helping
Malaysia achieve the objectives set forth in each of the Government of Malaysia’s economic plans.

Absent a contractual obligation, the Government of Malaysia is not liable for PETRONAS’
obligations.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE CERTIFICATES

The following is the text of the Terms and Conditions of the Certificates which (subject to
completion and amendment) will be endorsed on each Certificate in definitive form (if any are issued)
and will be attached and (subject to the provisions thereof) apply to the Global Certificate:

Each of the US$1,250,000,000 Trust Certificates due 2020 (the “Certificates”) represents an
undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Assets (as defined below) held on trust for the
holders of such Certificates (the “Certificateholders”) pursuant to a declaration of trust (as amended
or supplemented from time to time, the “Declaration of Trust”) dated on or about March 18, 2015 (the
“Closing Date”) made between PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. (the “Issuer”, and in its capacity as
trustee, the “Trustee”), Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS) (“PETRONAS”) and The Bank of
New York Mellon (the “Delegate”). The Certificates are constituted by the Declaration of Trust.

Payments relating to the Certificates will be made pursuant to an agency agreement to be dated
the Closing Date (the “Agency Agreement”) made between the Issuer, the Trustee, PETRONAS, the
Delegate, The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacities as principal paying agent (in such capacity,
the “Principal Paying Agent”, which expression shall include any successor, and together with any
further or other paying agent, appointed from time to time in respect of the Certificates, the “Paying
Agents”), as replacement agent in respect of the Certificates (in such capacity, the “Replacement
Agent”, which expression shall include any successor), as registrar in respect of the Certificates (in
such capacity, the “Registrar”, which expression shall include any successor), as transfer agent in
respect of the Certificates (in such capacity, the “Transfer Agent” and, together with any further or
other transfer agents, appointed from time to time in respect of the Certificates, the “Transfer
Agents”, which expression shall in each case include any successor), as calculation agent in respect
of the Certificates (in such capacity, the “Calculation Agent”, which expression shall include any
successor) and as account bank (in such capacity, the “Account Bank”, which expression shall include
any successor) (the Principal Paying Agent, the Paying Agents, the Calculation Agent, the
Replacement Agent, the Transfer Agents, the Account Bank and the Registrar together, the “Agents”).

Each initial Certificateholder, by its acquisition and holding of its interest in a Certificate, shall
be deemed to authorise and direct the Trustee to apply the sums paid by such Certificateholders in
respect of its Certificates to purchase the Sukuk Assets and to enter into each Transaction Document
to which the Trustee is a party or made in its favour, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Declaration of Trust and these Conditions.

Under the Declaration of Trust, the Trustee has delegated to the Delegate certain rights and
obligations under these Conditions. To the extent of such delegation, any reference in these Conditions
to the Trustee shall be interpreted as a reference to the Delegate.

1. FORM, DENOMINATION, TITLE AND DESCRIPTION

1.1 Form and Denomination

The Certificates are issued in registered form in minimum principal amounts of US$200,000 and
integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. A certificate will be issued to each Certificateholder
in respect of its registered holding of Certificates. Each certificate will be numbered serially with an
identifying number which will be recorded on the relevant certificate and in the register (the
“Register”) of Certificateholders which the Issuer will cause to be kept by the Registrar.

100
Upon issue, the Certificates will be represented by Global Certificates as described in the section
entitled “The Global Certificates”. Except in the limited circumstances described in the section
entitled “The Global Certificates”, owners of interests in Certificates represented by a Global
Certificate will not be entitled to receive definitive Certificates in respect of their individual holdings
of Certificates. The Certificates are not issuable in bearer form.

1.2 Title

The Registrar will maintain the Register in respect of the Certificates in accordance with the
provisions of the Agency Agreement. Title to the Certificates passes only by registration in the
Register. The registered holder of any Certificate will (except as otherwise required by law) be treated
as its absolute owner for all purposes (whether or not any payment thereon is overdue and regardless
of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest or any writing on, or the theft or loss of, the certificate
issued in respect of it) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder of any Certificate. In
these Conditions, “Certificateholder” and (in relation to a Certificate) “holder” have the meaning
given thereto in the Declaration of Trust.

2. TRANSFERS OF CERTIFICATES AND ISSUE OF CERTIFICATES

2.1 Transfers

Subject to Conditions 2.4 and 2.5, and the limitations as to transfer of title set out in the Agency
Agreement, a Certificate may be transferred by depositing the certificate issued in respect of that
Certificate, with the form of transfer duly completed and signed, at the specified office of any of the
Transfer Agents.

Transfers of interests in the Certificates represented by the Global Certificate will be effected in
accordance with the provisions of the Agency Agreement and the rules of the relevant clearing systems.
See “The Global Certificates”.

2.2 Delivery of New Certificates

Each new certificate to be issued upon a transfer of Certificates will, within five business days
of receipt by the relevant Transfer Agent of the duly completed form of transfer provided at the offices
of the Transfer Agent, be mailed by uninsured mail at the risk of the holder entitled to the Certificate
to the address specified in the form of transfer.

Where some but not all of the principal amount of the Certificates in respect of which a
certificate is issued is to be transferred, a new certificate in respect of the principal amount of the
Certificates not so transferred will, within five business days of receipt by the relevant Transfer Agent
of the original certificate, be mailed by uninsured mail at the risk of the holder of the principal amount
of the Certificates not so transferred to the address of such holder appearing on the Register or as
specified in the form of transfer.

Except in the limited circumstances described in the section entitled “The Global Certificates”,
owners of interests in the Certificates will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Certificates.

For the purposes of this Condition 2.2, “business day” shall mean a day on which banks are open
for business in the city in which the specified office of the Registrar and the Transfer Agent with
whom a certificate is deposited in connection with a transfer is located.

101
2.3 Formalities

Registration of transfers of Certificates will be effected without charge by or on behalf of the


Issuer or any Transfer Agent but upon payment (or the giving of such indemnity as the Issuer or any
Transfer Agent may require) by the transferee in respect of any stamp duty, registration or similar
taxes or charges which may be imposed in relation to such transfer.

2.4 Transfers after Transfer Record Date

No Certificateholder may require the transfer of a Certificate to be registered (a) during the
period of seven days ending on (and including) any Tax Dissolution Date, Total Loss Event
Dissolution Date or Early Dissolution Date or (b) during the period of seven days ending on (and
including) any Periodic Distribution Date or, as the case may be, the Scheduled Dissolution Date.

2.5 Regulations

All transfers of Certificates and entries on the Register will be made subject to the detailed
regulations concerning transfer of the Certificates scheduled to the Declaration of Trust. The
regulations may be changed by the Issuer from time to time with the prior written approval of the
Delegate, the Registrar and the Transfer Agent. A copy of the current regulations will be mailed (free
of charge or, after notice to the Issuer, at the Issuer’s expense) by the Registrar to any
Certificateholder who requests in writing a copy of the regulations.

3. STATUS AND LIMITED RECOURSE

3.1 Status

Each Certificate: (a) evidences an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Assets; (b)
will be direct, unconditional unsubordinated and (subject to the Transaction Documents) unsecured
general obligations of the Issuer; and (c) will, subject to the Transaction Documents, at all times rank
pari passu, without any preference among themselves and equally with all other outstanding unsecured
and unsubordinated general obligations of the Issuer.

3.2 Limited Recourse

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Transaction Document, no


payment of any amount whatsoever shall be made in respect of the Certificates by the Issuer, the
Trustee or the Delegate or any agents thereof except to the extent that funds are available therefor from
the Trust Assets.

The proceeds of the Trust Assets are the sole source of payments on the Certificates. The
Certificates do not represent an interest in any of the Issuer, PETRONAS, the Trustee, the Delegate,
the Agents or any of their respective affiliates. Certificateholders by subscribing for or acquiring the
Certificates acknowledge that no recourse may be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect
of the Certificates against PETRONAS (to the extent that it fulfils all of its obligations under the
relevant Transaction Documents to which it is a party), or any of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Delegate,
or the Agents to the extent the Trust Assets have been exhausted following which all obligations of
the Issuer and the Trustee shall be extinguished.

No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in these Conditions shall be
had against any shareholder, member, officer, agent or director of the Issuer, the Trustee or the
Delegate by the enforcement of any assessment or by any proceeding, by virtue of any statute or
otherwise.

102
The net proceeds of the realisation of, or enforcement with respect to, the Trust Assets may not
be sufficient to make all payments due in respect of the Certificates. If, following distribution of such
proceeds, there remains a shortfall in payments due under the Certificates no Certificateholder will
have any claim against PETRONAS (to the extent PETRONAS fulfils all of its obligations under the
relevant Transaction Documents to which it is a party) or against any of the Issuer, the Trustee, the
Delegate, any of the Agents or any of their respective affiliates or other assets in respect of such
shortfall and any unsatisfied claims of Certificateholders shall be extinguished. In particular, no
Certificateholder will be able to petition for, or join any other person in instituting proceedings for,
the reorganisation, liquidation, winding up or receivership of PETRONAS (to the extent PETRONAS
fulfils all of its obligations under the relevant Transaction Documents to which it is a party), or any
of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Delegate, any of the Agents or any of their respective affiliates as a
consequence of such shortfall or otherwise.

4. TRUST

4.1 Summary of the Trust

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, the Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Assets upon trust
absolutely for the Certificateholders as beneficiaries in accordance with the Declaration of Trust.

Under the Wakalah Agreement, the Trustee will appoint PETRONAS as the Trustee’s agent (in
such capacity, the “Wakeel”) to perform the duties set out in the Wakalah Agreement and the Wakalah
Contracts, and the Issuer agrees to apply the Sukuk Issue Amount to acquire:

(a) the Leased Assets to be leased by the Trustee (as Lessor) to the Lessee pursuant to the Lease
Agreement; and

(b) the Commodities to be purchased by the Trustee (or by the Facility Agent on its behalf) to
be sold to the Buyer pursuant to the Commodity Murabahah Investment Agreement,

(together the “Sukuk Assets”, and which will form part of the “Wakalah Portfolio”).

The Trustee will enter into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated the Closing
Date with PETRONAS Penapisan (Melaka) Sdn. Bhd. (the “Seller”). The Seller will sell to the Trustee
its beneficial ownership of those assets situated in Malaysia, described in the Purchase Agreement
(such assets, the “Assets”, which term includes such other substitute assets that PETRONAS (or its
wholly-owned subsidiaries who may enter into a purchase agreement with the Trustee in connection
with the Certificates) provides to the Issuer pursuant to the terms of the Substitution Undertaking).
The Trustee (in its capacity as lessor, the “Lessor”) will lease the Assets (the “Leased Assets”) to
PETRONAS (in such capacity, the “Lessee”) pursuant to a lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”)
dated the Closing Date between the Lessor and the Lessee.

The Issuer shall appoint PETRONAS as servicing agent (in such capacity, the “Servicing
Agent”) pursuant to a servicing agency agreement (the “Servicing Agency Agreement”). The
Servicing Agent shall provide the services described therein in respect of the Leased Assets.

The Issuer shall enter into a commodity murabahah investment agreement (the “Commodity
Murabahah Investment Agreement”) with PETRONAS (as the “Buyer”) pursuant to which the
Issuer shall purchase Commodities on the Closing Date on behalf of the Buyer at the Aggregate
Commodity Purchase Price in consideration of the Aggregate Deferred Sale Price to be paid by the
Buyer to the Issuer in accordance with the Commodity Murabahah Investment Agreement on the
relevant Dissolution Date.

103
Pursuant to the purchase undertaking (the “Purchase Undertaking”) dated the Closing Date
granted by PETRONAS in favour of the Trustee, PETRONAS undertakes to purchase all of the Leased
Assets at the Exercise Price on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Undertaking
following the issue of a notice (in the form prescribed by the terms of the Purchase Undertaking, the
“Exercise Notice”) from the Trustee, which shall be served by or on behalf of the Trustee on
PETRONAS either: (a) within a prescribed period prior to the Scheduled Dissolution Date; or (b)
following the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, and all of the Leased Assets shall be sold to
PETRONAS by way of a separate sale agreement.

Pursuant to a sale undertaking (the “Sale Undertaking”) dated the Closing Date granted by the
Trustee in favour of PETRONAS and certain of its subsidiaries, subject to the Trustee being entitled
to redeem the Certificates early pursuant to Condition 6.3 (Dissolution for Taxation Reason),
PETRONAS may, by exercising its option under the Sale Undertaking and serving a notice on the
Trustee no later than 30 days and no earlier than 60 days prior to the Tax Dissolution Date, oblige the
Trustee to sell and assign all of the Leased Assets at the Exercise Price to PETRONAS or its relevant
subsidiary for the purpose of tax Dissolution under Condition 6.3.

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, the Trustee will declare a trust in favour of the
Certificateholders over:

(a) all of its rights, title, interest and benefit, present and future, in, to and under the relevant
Sukuk Assets;

(b) all of its rights, title, interest and benefit, present and future, in, to and under the
Transaction Documents;

(c) all monies which may now be, or hereafter from time to time are, standing to the credit of
the Transaction Account (as defined below),

and all proceeds of the foregoing upon trust absolutely for the Certificateholders pro rata according
to the principal amount of the Certificates held by each holder (together, the “Trust Assets”).

Subject to the Wakalah Agreement, all payments by PETRONAS to the Trustee under each
Transaction Document (as defined below) to which it is party will be deposited into a non-interest
bearing account of the Trustee maintained, among other things, for such purpose with the Account
Bank pursuant to an account bank agreement dated the Closing Date between the Account Bank,
PETRONAS, the Delegate and the Issuer (the “Transaction Account”).

The Purchase Agreement, the Lease Agreement, the Servicing Agency Agreement, the Purchase
Undertaking, the Sale Undertaking, the Substitution Undertaking, the Commodity Murabahah
Investment Agreement, the Servicing Agency Agreement, the Wakalah Agreement, the Declaration of
Trust, the Agency Agreement, the Costs Undertaking, the Certificates and any other agreements and
documents designated as such by the Trustee and PETRONAS are collectively referred to as the
“Transaction Documents”.

4.2 Application of Proceeds from Trust Assets

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, the Trustee holds the Trust Assets for and on behalf of the
Certificateholders. On each Periodic Distribution Date, or on a Dissolution Date, the Trustee shall
apply the monies standing to the credit of the Transaction Account in the following order of priority:

(a) first, to pay the Delegate and the Agents all amounts owing to them under the Transaction
Documents;

104
(b) second, only if payment is due on a Periodic Distribution Date, to the Principal Paying
Agent for application in or towards payment pari passu and rateably of all Periodic
Distribution Amounts due but unpaid;

(c) third, only if such payment is due on a Dissolution Date, to the Principal Paying Agent for
application in or towards payment pari passu and rateably of the Dissolution Distribution
Amount (to the extent not already paid under paragraph (b) above) due on the Dissolution
Date;

(d) fourth, to the Servicing Agent in payment of any outstanding Servicing Agency Expenses;
and

(e) fifth, only if such payment is due on a Dissolution Date in accordance with the Wakalah
Agreement, in payment of the surplus (if any) to the Wakeel as an incentive amount for its
performance.

The Principal Paying Agent shall apply all monies so received towards the payments set forth
above.

5. PERIODIC DISTRIBUTION AMOUNTS

5.1 Periodic Distribution Amounts and Periodic Distribution Dates

A distribution amount, representing the return in respect of the Trust Assets derived from
payments made to the Trustee under the Lease Agreement, will accrue and be payable on the
Certificates and be distributed in accordance with these Conditions.

Subject to Condition 3.2 and Condition 4.2, the Trustee shall instruct the Principal Paying Agent
to distribute to each Certificateholder pro rata on each Periodic Distribution Date, a distribution
amount equal to the Periodic Distribution Amount due and payable on such Periodic Distribution Date.

The Calculation Agent will calculate the amounts payable in respect of any Certificates by
multiplying the Periodic Distribution Amount by a fraction of which the numerator is the principal
amount of the relevant Certificateholder’s certificates and the denominator of which is the Sukuk Issue
Amount at such time and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest US$0.01, US$0.005 being
rounded upwards.

Any amount payable on any Periodic Distribution Date and any other additional amounts payable
by or on behalf of the Trustee under these Conditions shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent.

For these purposes:

“Periodic Distribution Amount” means, with respect to each Periodic Distribution Period, an
amount equal to the product of: (a) the Periodic Distribution Rate; (b) the Sukuk Issue Amount; and
(c) the number of days (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting of 12 months of 30
days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the actual number of days) to elapse in the relevant
Periodic Distribution Period divided by 360, provided that the Reduction Amount shall be deducted
from the Periodic Distribution Amount due on the final Periodic Distribution Date.

“Periodic Distribution Date” means March 18 and September 18 each year up to and including
March 18, 2020 (or if any such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day unless it would
thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such day shall be the immediately preceding
Business Day), commencing on the Periodic Distribution Date falling on September 18, 2015.

“Periodic Distribution Period” means the period from and including the Closing Date to but
excluding the first Periodic Distribution Date and thereafter each successive period from and
including a Periodic Distribution Date to but excluding the immediately following Periodic
Distribution Date or Dissolution Date (if such date is not a Periodic Distribution Date).

105
6. DISSOLUTION

6.1 Scheduled Dissolution

Unless previously redeemed, the Certificates shall be redeemed in full by the Issuer on the
Scheduled Dissolution Date by payment of the Dissolution Distribution Amount to each
Certificateholder pro rata, and the Trust will be dissolved following such payment in full.

The Calculation Agent will calculate the amounts payable in respect of any Certificates by
multiplying the Dissolution Distribution Amount by a fraction of which the numerator is the principal
amount of the relevant Certificate and the denominator of which is the Sukuk Issue Amount on the
Scheduled Dissolution Date and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest US$0.01, US$0.005 being
rounded upwards.

In the event that payment of the Dissolution Distribution Amount has not been paid in full when
due (for whatever reason), additional amounts shall accrue on a daily basis and be calculated as the
product of (i) the outstanding Dissolution Distribution Amount, (ii) the Periodic Distribution Rate, and
(iii) a fraction of which the numerator is the actual number of days (calculated on the basis of a year
of 360 days consisting of 12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the
actual number of days) from (and including) the due date for payment of the outstanding Dissolution
Distribution Amount to (but excluding) the date of full payment, and the denominator of which is 360.

6.2 Early Dissolution—Dissolution Event

Following the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Certificates may, subject to Condition 12
(Dissolution Events), be redeemed in full by the Issuer on the Early Dissolution Date by payment of
the Dissolution Distribution Amount to each Certificateholder pro rata, and the Trust will be dissolved
following such payment in full.

The Calculation Agent will calculate the amount payable in respect of any Certificate by
multiplying the Dissolution Distribution Amount by a fraction of which the numerator is the principal
amount of the relevant Certificate and the denominator is the Sukuk Issue Amount on the Early
Dissolution Date and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest US$0.01, US$0.005 being rounded
upwards.

In the event that payment of the Dissolution Distribution Amount has not been paid in full when
due (for whatever reason), additional amounts shall accrue on a daily basis and be calculated as the
product of (i) the outstanding Dissolution Distribution Amount, (ii) the Periodic Distribution Rate, and
(iii) a fraction of which the numerator is the actual number of days (calculated on the basis of a year
of 360 days consisting of 12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the
actual number of days) from (and including) the due date for payment of the outstanding Dissolution
Distribution Amount to (but excluding) the date of full payment, and the denominator of which is 360.

6.3 Early Dissolution for Taxation Reasons

The Certificates may be redeemed at the option of PETRONAS, in whole but not in part, at any
time, upon PETRONAS, pursuant to the Sale Undertaking, providing the Issuer not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days’ notice prior to the date of redemption (the “Tax Dissolution Date”) specified in
such notice at the Dissolution Distribution Amount, only if, as a result of the following: (1) any change
in or amendment to the laws of Malaysia or Labuan (or of any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein) or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder or any change in the official
interpretation or official application of such laws, regulations or rulings; or (2) any change in the
official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties

106
affecting taxation to which Malaysia or Labuan (or such political subdivision or taxing authority) is
a party, which change, amendment or treaty becomes effective on or after the date of the Offering
Circular:

(a) the Issuer is, or on the next Periodic Distribution Date would be unable, for reasons outside
of its control, to procure payment by PETRONAS of any additional amounts as described
under Condition 10 pursuant to the terms of the relevant Transaction Documents, and the
Issuer is, or on the next Periodic Distribution Date would be, required to pay such
additional amounts; or

(b) PETRONAS has, or will become, obligated to pay any additional amounts as described in
Condition 10 pursuant to the terms of the relevant Transaction Documents to ensure that the
funds available to the Trustee are sufficient to pay the relevant Periodic Distribution
Amount,

(each a “Tax Event”).

PETRONAS must, at the same time as providing the notice referred to above, deliver to the
Delegate a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a
statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to such right of redemption have occurred.

Upon receipt by the Issuer of such notice of redemption of the Certificates, the Issuer shall give
notice to the Certificateholders that the Certificates shall be redeemed in full on the Tax Dissolution
Date.

Following satisfaction of the conditions set out above in this Condition 6.3 (Dissolution for
Taxation Reasons) the Certificates shall be redeemed in full by the Issuer on the Tax Dissolution Date
in cash for an amount equal to the Dissolution Distribution Amount as of such date, and the Trust shall
be dissolved following such payment in full.

The Dissolution Distribution Amount shall be distributed on the Tax Dissolution Date pro rata
amongst the Certificateholders. The Calculation Agent will calculate the amount payable in respect of
any Certificate by multiplying the Dissolution Distribution Amount by a fraction of which the
numerator is the principal amount of the relevant Certificate and the denominator is the Sukuk Issue
Amount on the Tax Dissolution Date and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest US$0.01,
US$0.005 being rounded upwards.

In the event that payment of the Dissolution Distribution Amount has not been paid in full when
due (for whatever reason), additional amounts shall accrue on a daily basis and be calculated as the
product of (i) the outstanding Dissolution Distribution Amount, (ii) the Periodic Distribution Rate, and
(iii) a fraction of which the numerator is the actual number of days (calculated on the basis of a year
of 360 days consisting of 12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the
actual number of days) from (and including) the due date for payment of the outstanding Dissolution
Distribution Amount to (but excluding) the date of full payment, and the denominator of which is 360.

6.4 Early Dissolution following a Total Loss Event

Following the occurrence of a Total Loss Event, the Certificates may, subject to Condition 12.4,
be redeemed by the Issuer on the date falling thirty one (31) days after the occurrence of the Total Loss
Event, and the Trust will be dissolved following such payment.

The Certificates will be redeemed using the proceeds of Insurances and/or the Total Loss
Shortfall Amount which are required to be paid into the Transaction Account by no later than the 31st
day after the occurrence of the Total Loss Event.

107
6.5 Interest in Trust Assets

Upon payment in full of the amounts equal to the Dissolution Distribution Amount, the
Certificates shall cease to represent interests in the Trust Assets and no further amounts shall be
payable in respect thereof.

6.6 Cancellation

All Certificates which are:

(a) redeemed, will forthwith be cancelled and accordingly may not be held, reissued or sold;

(b) surrendered for cancellation by PETRONAS on a Periodic Distribution Date, may be


cancelled by the Trustee following notice of such cancellation to the Principal Paying
Agent, the Registrar and any other relevant Agent. The Trustee shall make any necessary
or desirable modifications to the Transaction Documents reflecting the reduction in the
outstanding principal amount of the Certificates resulting from such cancellation subject to
PETRONAS being solely responsible for the payment of all fees, costs and expenses arising
from any cancellation of its Certificates or such modifications, including any legal fees for
the issuances of legal opinions and assurances required by the Trustee.

pursuant to any Transaction Document (or permit such to occur or suffer such to exist);

(d) use the proceeds of the issue of the Certificates for any purpose other than as contemplated
in the Transaction Documents;

(e) subject to Condition 16 (Meetings of Certificateholders), amend or agree to any amendment


of any of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or to its constitutional

8. CALCULATION AGENT

8.1 Appointment

The Issuer shall procure that so long as any of the Certificates remains outstanding there shall
at all times be a Calculation Agent to undertake all necessary calculations and/or determinations for
the purposes of calculating the relevant amounts due to be paid on the Certificates provided that the
Issuer may terminate the appointment of such Calculation Agent in accordance with the provisions of
the Agency Agreement. All such calculations shall be undertaken in respect of each US$200,000 in
principal amount of Certificates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties or be removed
without a successor having been appointed.

8.2 Determinations binding

Any determination or calculation made by the Calculation Agent shall (in the absence of manifest
error) be final and binding on the Issuer, the Trustee, the Delegate, PETRONAS, the Certificateholders
and the other Agents. The Calculation Agent may consult on any matter with any legal or other adviser
selected by it and it shall not be liable in respect of anything done or omitted to be done relating to
that matter in good faith in accordance with that adviser’s opinion.

9. PAYMENT

9.1 Payments in Respect of Certificates

Subject to Condition 9.2, payment of any Dissolution Distribution Amount will be made on the
relevant due date for payment by the Principal Paying Agent by wire transfer in same day funds to the
registered account of each Certificateholder or by a US dollar cheque drawn on a bank that processes
payments in US dollar and mailed to the registered address of the Certificateholder if it does not have
a registered account. Payments of any Dissolution Distribution Amount due will only be made against
surrender of the relevant Certificate at the specified office of any of the Paying Agents.

109
Subject to Condition 9.2, payment of any Periodic Distribution Amount will be made on the
relevant due date for payment by the Principal Paying Agent by wire transfer in same day funds to the
Certificateholder shown on the Register at the close of business on the 15th day before the Periodic
Distribution Date. Such payment will be made to the registered account of each Certificateholder or
by a US dollar cheque drawn on a bank that processes payments in US dollar and mailed to the
registered address of the Certificateholder if it does not have a registered account.

For the purposes of this Condition 9, a Certificateholder’s “registered account” means the US
dollar account maintained by or on behalf of it with a bank that processes payments in US dollar,
details of which appear on the Register at the close of business on the second Business Day before
the due date for payment and a Certificateholder’s “registered address” means its address appearing
on the Register at that time.

9.2 Payments subject to applicable laws

Payments of any Periodic Distribution Amount, Dissolution Distribution Amount and/or any
other additional amounts payable by or on behalf of the Issuer under these Conditions (together, the
“Sukuk Payments”) are subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable in
the place of payment, but without prejudice to the provisions of Condition 10 (Taxation).

9.3 Payment only on a Business Day

Where payment of any Sukuk Payments is to be made by transfer to a registered account,


payment instructions (for value the due date or, if that is not a Business Day, for value the first
following day which is a Business Day) will be initiated and, where payment is to be made by a
cheque, the cheque will be mailed in each case by the Principal Paying Agent, on the date for payment
or if later and in respect of payments of the Dissolution Distribution Amount payable by or on behalf
of the Issuer under these Conditions on the Business Day on which the relevant Certificate is
surrendered at the specified office of a Paying Agent.

Certificateholders will not be entitled to any Periodic Distribution Amount and/or Dissolution
Distribution Amount or other payment for any delay after the due date in receiving the amount due
if the due date is not a Business Day, if the relevant Certificateholder is late in surrendering its
Certificate (if required to do so) or if a cheque mailed in accordance with this Condition arrives after
the due date for payment.

9.4 Agents

The Issuer reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Agent and
to appoint additional or other Agents provided that it will (i) at all times maintain a Principal Paying
Agent and a Registrar (which may be the same entity), and (ii) a Paying Agent in an EU Member State
that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to the European Council Directive
2003/48/EC or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such
Directive. Notice of any termination or appointment and of any changes in specified offices will be
given to Certificateholders promptly by the Issuer in accordance with Condition 15 (Notices).

10. TAXATION

All payments by the Issuer or PETRONAS in respect of the Certificates will be made without
withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Withholding Taxes, unless deduction or
withholding of such Withholding Taxes is required by law. In that event, the Issuer will pay such
additional amounts as are paid to it by PETRONAS in order that the net amounts received by the
Certificateholders after such withholding or deduction, together with such additional amounts, shall

110
equal the respective amounts of principal and profit which would have been receivable in respect of
the Certificates in the absence of such Withholding Taxes, except that no such additional amounts shall
be payable in respect of any Certificate:

(a) to or on behalf of a Certificateholder or beneficial owner who is subject to Withholding


Taxes by reason of having some connection with Malaysia or Labuan otherwise than by
reason only of the holding of, the exercise of any right provided by, the enforcement of any
terms of, or the receipt of principal or profit in respect of, any Certificates; or

(b) to or on behalf of a Certificateholder or beneficial owner who would not be liable for or
subject to such Withholding Taxes by complying with any certification, identification or
other reporting requirements whether imposed by statute, treaty, regulation or
administrative practice concerning nationality, residence or connection with the Relevant
Jurisdiction if such compliance is required as a precondition to relief or exemption from
such Withholding Taxes and if the Principal Paying Agent has been notified in writing by
the Issuer or PETRONAS of such requirement (such notice to be provided by the Principal
Paying Agent to the relevant clearing organization); or

(c) to or on behalf of a Certificateholder or beneficial owner who presents such Certificate


(where presentation is required) for payment more than 30 days after the Relevant Date (as
defined below) except to the extent that the Certificateholder or beneficial owner thereof
would have been entitled to such additional amounts on presenting the same for payment
on the last day of such 30-day period; or

(d) for any Withholding Taxes imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor or amended version of these
provisions, any agreement with the U.S. Treasury entered into with respect thereto, any
U.S. Treasury regulation issued thereunder or any other official interpretations or guidance
issued with respect thereto; any intergovernmental agreement entered into with respect
thereto, and any law, regulation, or other official interpretation or guidance promulgated
pursuant to such intergovernmental agreement; or

(e) to or on behalf of a Certificateholder or beneficial owner to the extent any withholding is


required to be made pursuant to EC Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive
implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of November 26-27, 2000
on the taxation of savings income, or any law implementing or complying with, or
introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; or

(f) to or on behalf of a Certificateholder or beneficial owner in respect of any tax, duty,


assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the
presentation for payment of such Certificate by or on behalf of a Certificateholder who
would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant
Certificate to a Paying Agent in another Member State of the European Union; or

(g) where the Certificateholder or any other person who holds an interest in the Certificate is
a fiduciary, a partnership or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such
payment, in respect of Withholding Taxes that would not have been imposed had the
beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, member of such partnership or
beneficial owner of such payment been the actual holder of the Certificate; or

(h) any combination of (a) to (g) (inclusive) above.

The obligation to pay such additional amounts shall not apply to (a) any estate, inheritance, gift,
sales, transfer, personal property or any similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge or (b)
any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by deduction or
withholding from payments on the Certificates; provided that, except as otherwise set forth in the

111
Certificates and the Transaction Documents, the Issuer shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any,
which may be imposed by the Relevant Jurisdiction, the United States or any respective political
subdivision thereof or any taxing authority of or in the foregoing, with respect to the Transaction
Documents or as a consequence of the initial issuance of the Certificates.

If the Issuer is required to pay additional amounts in respect of Withholding Taxes, it will deliver
to the Paying Agent at the time of any such payment a statement specifying the amount of taxes so
paid. The Paying Agent will make a copy of such documentation available to any Certificateholder or
beneficial owner of the Certificates upon request.

As used herein, the “Relevant Date” means the date on which such payment first becomes due,
except that, if the amount of the monies payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or prior
to such date, it means the date on which, the full amount of such monies having been so received,
notice to that effect shall have been duly given to the Certificateholders.

11. PRESCRIPTION

Any monies paid by the Issuer or PETRONAS to the Paying Agents for payments under any
Certificates and remaining unclaimed at the end of two years after the Relevant Date shall then be
repaid to the Issuer or PETRONAS, and upon such repayment, all liability of the Paying Agents with
respect to such monies shall thereupon cease and any Certificateholder representing a claim therefor
shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof.

12. DISSOLUTION EVENTS

12.1 The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a Dissolution Event:

(a) the Issuer fails to pay any Periodic Distribution Amount on its due date for payment and
such default continues unremedied for a period of 30 days, or the Dissolution Distribution
Amount on the relevant due date; or

(b) the Issuer defaults in the performance or observance of any of its other obligations under
or in respect of the Declaration of Trust, the Agency Agreement or any other Transaction
Document to which it is a party and (except in any case where the failure is incapable of
remedy when no continuation or notice as is hereinafter mentioned will be required) such
default remains unremedied for 30 days after written notice thereof, addressed to the Issuer
by the Delegate, has been delivered to the Issuer; or

(c) a Termination Event occurs under the Lease Agreement and is continuing; or

(d) at any time it is or will become unlawful for the Issuer to perform or comply with any of
its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or any of the
obligations of the Issuer under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party are not, or
cease to be, legal, valid, binding and enforceable; or

(e) either:

(i) the Issuer becomes insolvent or is unable to pay its debts as they fall due;

(ii) an administrator or liquidator of the whole or substantially the whole of the


undertaking, assets and revenues of the Issuer is appointed (or application for any
such appointment is made);

112
(iii) the Issuer takes any action for a readjustment or deferment of any of its obligations
or makes a general assignment or an arrangement or composition with or for the
benefit of its creditors or declares a moratorium in respect of any of its indebtedness
or any guarantee of any indebtedness given by it; or

(iv) the Issuer ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or substantially the whole of its
business (otherwise than for the purposes of or pursuant to an amalgamation,
reorganisation or restructuring whilst solvent); or

(f) an order or decree is made or an effective resolution is passed for the winding up,
liquidation or dissolution of the Issuer; or

(g) any event occurs which under the laws of Malaysia has an analogous effect to any of the
events referred to in paragraphs (e) and (f) above.

12.2 Upon the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Issuer shall give notice of the occurrence of such
Dissolution Event to the Delegate and the Certificateholders in accordance with Condition 15
(Notices) with a request to such Certificateholders to indicate if they wish the Trust to be
dissolved.

12.3 Upon the occurrence of a Dissolution Event following the issuance of a notice pursuant to the
preceding paragraph, the Delegate in its sole discretion may, and if so requested in writing by
the holders of at least 25 per cent. in Sukuk Issue Amount, or if so directed by an Extraordinary
Resolution shall (subject in each case to being indemnified and/or secured and/or prefunded to
its satisfaction against all Liability to which it may render itself liable or which it may incur by
so doing) give notice to all the holders of such Certificates in accordance with Condition 15
(Notices) that the Certificates are immediately due and payable at the Dissolution Distribution
Amount on the date specified in such notice (the “Early Dissolution Date”) and that the Trust
is to be dissolved on the day after the last outstanding Certificate has been redeemed in full and
all payments and/or deliveries in respect hereof have been satisfied in full, provided, however,
that in the case of any of the events described in (c) above, such notice may only be given if the
Delegate has certified in writing to the Issuer that such event, in the opinion of the Delegate, is
materially prejudicial to the interests of the Certificateholders.

12.4 Upon the occurrence of a Total Loss Event, the Issuer shall give notice of the occurrence of such
Total Loss Event to the Delegate and the Certificateholders in accordance with Condition 15
(Notices) and notify them that the Certificates will become due and payable on the date falling
thirty one (31) days after the occurrence of the Total Loss Event (the “Total Loss Dissolution
Date”).

Following a Total Loss Event, the Trustee will have recourse to:

(a) the Insurances procured by the Servicing Agent under the Servicing Agency Agreement for
an amount equal to the Sukuk Issue Amount; and

(b) the Servicing Agent for an amount equal to the Total Loss Shortfall Amount.

13. ENFORCEMENT AND EXERCISE OF RIGHTS

13.1 Upon the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, to the extent that the amounts payable in respect of
the Certificates have not been paid in full in accordance with these Conditions, the Delegate shall
(acting on behalf of the Certificateholders) take one or more of the following steps:

(a) take enforcement action against PETRONAS for all amounts due to be paid under the
Purchase Undertaking or any other Transaction Document;

113
(b) take enforcement action against the Servicing Agent for all amounts due to be paid under
the Servicing Agency Agreement; or

(c) take such other steps as the Delegate may consider necessary to recover amounts due to the
Certificateholders.

13.2 Notwithstanding Condition 13.1, no enforcement action against PETRONAS under the Purchase
Undertaking may be taken following the occurrence of a Dissolution Event arising solely as a
result of the Servicing Agent’s failure to pay the Total Loss Shortfall Amount when due under
the Servicing Agency Agreement.

13.3 Neither the Delegate nor the Trustee shall be bound in any circumstances including, but not
limited to, in accordance with this Condition 13 to take any action in relation to the Trust Assets
or any Dissolution Event or to take any proceedings or any other steps under these Conditions
or the Transaction Documents unless directed or requested to do so (i) by an Extraordinary
Resolution or (ii) in writing by the holders of at least 25 per cent. of the Sukuk Issue Amount
and in either case, then only if it shall be indemnified and/or secured and/or prefunded to its
satisfaction against all Liability to which it may render itself liable or which it may incur by so
doing.

13.4 No Certificateholder shall be entitled to proceed directly against, or to provide instructions to the
Trustee to pursue any claim, against the Issuer or PETRONAS arising under the Trust Assets or
the Certificates or to enforce the performance of any provisions of any of the Transaction
Documents or for any other reason unless (i) the Delegate has resigned its appointment in
accordance with the terms of the Declaration of Trust, (ii) no successor or replacement has been
appointed in its place (in accordance with the terms of the Declaration of Trust) and (iii) the
relevant Certificateholder (or such Certificateholder together with the other Certificateholders
who propose to proceed directly against PETRONAS) holds at least 25 per cent. of the Sukuk
Issue Amount. Under no circumstances shall the Trustee, the Delegate or any Certificateholders
have any right to cause the sale or other disposition of any of the Trust Assets except pursuant
to the Purchase Undertaking, and the only right of the Trustee, the Delegate and
Certificateholders against the Issuer and PETRONAS shall be (i) to enforce the obligation of
PETRONAS to pay the Exercise Price under the Purchase Undertaking; (ii) to enforce the
obligations of the Lessee under the Lease Agreement; (iii) to enforce the obligations of the
Servicing Agent under the Servicing Agency Agreement; and (iv) enforce the obligations of the
Buyer under the Commodity Murabahah Investment Agreement.

13.5 Conditions 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, and 13.4 are subject to this Condition 13.5. After enforcing and
distributing or realising the Trust Assets and distributing the net proceeds of the Trust Assets in
accordance with Condition 4.2, the obligations of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Delegate in
respect of the Certificates shall be satisfied and no Certificateholder may take any steps against
the Issuer, the Trustee or the Delegate to recover any sums in respect of the Certificates and the
right to receive any such sums unpaid shall be extinguished. In particular, no Certificateholder
shall be entitled in respect thereof to petition or to take any other steps for the winding-up of the
Issuer, the Delegate or the Trustee, nor shall any of them have any claim in respect of the Trust
Assets of any other trust established by the Trustee.

14. REPLACEMENT OF CERTIFICATES

Should any Certificate be lost, stolen, mutilated, defaced or destroyed it may be replaced at the
specified offices of the Replacement Agent upon payment by the claimant of the expenses incurred in
connection with the replacement and on such terms as to evidence and indemnity as the Trustee may
require. Mutilated or defaced Certificates must be surrendered or an indemnity given before
replacements will be issued.

114
15. NOTICES

15.1 All notices regarding Certificates will be deemed to be validly given if published in one or more
leading English language daily newspapers of general circulation in London (which is expected
to be the Financial Times) and, so long as the Certificates are listed on The Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited, on the website of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited
(www.hkex.com.hk), or otherwise in compliance with the listing rules of The Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited. The Issuer shall also ensure that notices are duly published in a manner
which complies with the rules of any stock exchange or other relevant authority on which the
Certificates are for the time being listed or by which they have been admitted to trading. Any
such notice will be deemed to have been given on the date of the first publication or, where
required to be published in more than one newspaper, on the date of the first publication in all
required newspapers. If publication as provided above is not practicable, a notice will be given
in such other manner, and will be deemed to have been given on such date, as the Trustee shall
approve.

15.2 Notices to be given by any Certificateholder shall be in writing and given by lodging the same,
together with the relative Certificate or Certificates, with the Principal Paying Agent.

16. MEETINGS OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS, MODIFICATION, WAIVER,


AUTHORISATION AND DETERMINATION

16.1 The Issuer, the Delegate, PETRONAS and/or the Trustee may, and the Delegate shall upon a
requisition in writing signed by the holders of not less than 25 per cent. of the principal amount
of the Certificates for the time being outstanding, convene meetings of Certificateholders in
accordance with the provisions contained in the Declaration of Trust to consider any matter
affecting their interests, including the modification or abrogation by Extraordinary Resolution of
these Conditions or the provisions of the Declaration of Trust or any other Transaction
Document. The quorum at any meeting for passing an Extraordinary Resolution (other than in the
case of a Reserved Matter) will be one or more Certificateholders, proxies or representatives
present holding or representing not less than 50 per cent. of the principal amount of the
Certificates for the time being outstanding, or at any adjourned such meeting one or more

Certificates held or represented by him or them. For an Extraordinary Resolution to approve a
Reserved Matter (which must be proposed to all Certificateholders), the quorum shall be one or
more Certificateholders, proxies or representatives holding or representing not less than 75 per
cent. of the principal amount of the Certificates, or at any adjourned such meeting one or more
Certificateholders, proxies or representatives present holding or representing not less than 25 per
cent. of the principal amount of the Certificates for the time being outstanding. To be passed, an
Extraordinary Resolution requires a majority in favour consisting of not less than three quarters
of the persons voting on a show of hands or, if a poll is demanded, a majority of not less than
three quarters of the votes cast on such poll. An Extraordinary Resolution duly passed at any
meeting of Certificateholders will be binding on all holders of the Certificates, whether or not
they are present at the meeting and whether or not voting.

16.2 The Delegate may agree, without the consent or sanction of the Certificateholders, to any
modification of (other than in the case of a Reserved Matter), or to the waiver or authorisation
of any breach or proposed breach of, any of the Conditions or any of the provisions of the
Declaration of Trust or of any other Transaction Documents, or determine, without any such
consent as aforesaid, that any Dissolution Event shall not be treated as such, if, in the opinion
of the Delegate:

(a) such modification is of a formal, minor or technical nature; or

(b) such modification is made to correct a manifest error; or

115
(c) such modification is required to effect cancellation of Certificates in accordance with
Condition 6.6(b); or

(d) such modification is not materially prejudicial to the interests of the Certificateholders and
such modification is required by PETRONAS to substitute the Leased Assets during a Lease
Period; or

(e) such modification, waiver, authorisation or determination is not, in the opinion of the
Delegate, materially prejudicial to the interests of Certificateholders;

Any such modification, waiver, authorisation or determination may be made on such terms and
subject to such conditions (if any) as the Delegate may determine, shall be binding upon the
Certificateholders and, unless the Delegate otherwise decides, shall as soon as practicable
thereafter be notified to Certificateholders in accordance with Condition 15.

16.3 In connection with the exercise by it of any of its trusts, powers, authorities and discretions
(including, without limitation, any modification, waiver, authorisation, determination or
substitution), the Trustee or, as the case may be, the Delegate (in each case, acting on behalf of
the Certificateholders) shall have regard to the general interests of Certificateholders as a class
and shall not have regard to any interests arising from circumstances particular to individual
Certificateholders (whatever their number) and, in particular but without limitation, shall not
have regard to the consequences of any such exercise for individual Certificateholders or groups
of Certificateholders (whatever their number) resulting from their being for any purpose
domiciled or resident in, or otherwise connected with, or subject to the jurisdiction of, any
particular territory or any political subdivision thereof and neither the Trustee nor the Delegate
shall be entitled to require, nor shall any Certificateholder be entitled to claim, from the Trustee,
the Delegate or any other person any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax
consequence of any such exercise upon individual Certificateholders except to the extent
provided in Condition 10 (Taxation).

16.4 Any modification, abrogation, waiver, authorisation, determination or substitution shall be


binding on Certificateholders and any modification, abrogation, waiver, authorisation,
determination or substitution shall be notified by the Trustee (unless the Delegate otherwise
agrees) to Certificateholders as soon as practicable thereafter in accordance with Condition 15
(Notices).

17. INDEMNIFICATION AND LIABILITY OF THE TRUSTEE AND THE DELEGATE

17.1 The Declaration of Trust contains provisions for the indemnification of the Trustee and Delegate
in certain circumstances and for relief from responsibility, including provisions relieving the
Trustee and the Delegate from taking action unless indemnified and/or secured and/or pre-funded
to its satisfaction, in particular, in connection with the exercise of any of their respective rights
in respect of the Trust Assets.

17.2 The Delegate and the Trustee (solely in its capacity as such) make no representation and assume
no responsibility for the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of the obligations of any of the
Lessee, PETRONAS or the Servicing Agent under any Transaction Document to which it is a
party and shall not under any circumstances have any liability or be obliged to account to
Certificateholders in respect of any payment which should have been made by any of the Lessee,
the Servicing Agent or PETRONAS, as the case may be, but is not so made, and shall not in any
circumstances have any liability arising from the Trust Assets other than as expressly provided
in these Conditions or the Declaration of Trust.

17.3 The Delegate and the Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any loss or theft of the Trust Assets
or any cash or for failure in any obligation to insure the Trust Assets (except as set out in the
Transaction Documents) or any cash or for any claim arising from the fact that the Trust Assets

116
or any cash are held by or on behalf of the Trustee or on deposit or in an account with any
depositary or clearing system or are registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee, unless
such loss or theft arises as a result of the fraud, wilful default or gross negligence of the Delegate
or the Trustee.

18. CURRENCY INDEMNITY

The Issuer agrees to indemnify each Certificateholder against any loss incurred by such holder
as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for any amount due under such Certificate
and such judgment or order is expressed and paid in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than
US dollars and as a result of any variation as between (a) the rate of exchange at which the US dollar
is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (b) the rate
of exchange at which the holder on the date of payment of such judgment or order is able to purchase
US dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by the holder. This
indemnification will constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Issuer and will continue
in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “rate of
exchange” includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of,
or conversion into, US dollars.

19. CONTRACTS (RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES) ACT 1999

No rights are conferred on any person under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to
enforce any term of these Conditions, but this does not affect any right or remedy of any person which
exists or is available apart from that Act.

20. GOVERNING LAW AND SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION

20.1 The Declaration of Trust and the Certificates, and any non-contractual obligations arising out of
or in connection with the same, are governed by, and will be construed in accordance with,
English law.

20.2 The Issuer has in the Declaration of Trust irrevocably and unconditionally agreed for the benefit
of the Trustee and Certificateholders that the courts of England are to have non-exclusive
jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with the Declaration
of Trust or the Certificates and that accordingly any suit, action or proceedings arising therefrom

obtained or entered, the Lessee shall pay or deposit with the Lessor a sum sufficient to pay all monies

THE GLOBAL CERTIFICATES

The Certificates sold outside the United States in offshore transactions (the “Unrestricted
Certificates”) in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act, subject to certain exceptions, will
be represented by one or more global certificates in fully registered form without coupons
(collectively, the “Unrestricted Global Certificates”). The Unrestricted Global Certificates will be
registered in the name of a nominee of The Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) and deposited with
The Bank of New York Mellon as custodian for DTC for the accounts of Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V.
(“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, Luxembourg (“Clearstream”).

Until and including the 40th day after the later of the commencement of the offering of the
Certificates and the date of the Declaration of Trust (the “Restricted Date”), any resale or other
transfer of such interests to U.S. persons shall not be permitted unless such resale or transfer is made
pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S, as applicable, and in accordance with the certification
requirements described below.

The Certificates sold in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act (the “Restricted
Certificates”), subject to certain exceptions, will be represented by one or more global certificates in
fully registered form without coupons (collectively, the “Restricted Global Certificates,” and
together with the Unrestricted Global Certificates, the “Global Certificates”). The Restricted Global
Certificates will be registered in the name of a nominee of DTC and deposited with The Bank of New
York Mellon as custodian for DTC.

The Restricted Global Certificates will be subject to certain restrictions on transfer as described
in “Transfer Restrictions.”

On or prior to the Restricted Date, an interest in an Unrestricted Global Certificate may be


transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a Restricted Global Certificate
only upon receipt by the Transfer Agent of (A) instructions from DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream
directing the Registrar to effect the exchange or transfer of an interest in an Unrestricted Global
Certificate and (B) a written certification (in the form provided for in the Declaration of Trust) from
the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made to a person whom the transferor reasonably
believes to be a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities
Act and in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other
jurisdiction. After the Restricted Date, an interest in an Unrestricted Global Certificate may be
transferred without any certification.

Interests in a Restricted Global Certificate may be transferred to a person who takes delivery in
the form of an interest in an Unrestricted Global Certificate, whether before, on or after the Restricted
Date, only upon receipt by the Transfer Agent of, among other things, a written certification (in the
form provided for in the Declaration of Trust) from the transferor.

Any interest in one Global Certificate, upon transfer and delivery, will cease to be an interest in
such Global Certificate and become an interest in the other Global Certificate and, accordingly, will
thereafter be subject to all of its transfer restrictions and other procedures for as long as it remains
such an interest. Interests in the Certificates represented by such Global Certificates will be shown on,
and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC, Euroclear and
Clearstream, and their respective direct and indirect participants.

So long as Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, is the registered owner of the Global Notes, Cede
& Co., as registered Certificateholder of such Global Certificate will be considered the sole owner or
Certificateholder of the Certificates represented by such Global Certificate for all purposes under such
Certificates and the Transaction Documents, unless otherwise provided therein.

124
Payments in relation to any Global Certificate will be made in accordance with the settlement
and clearing procedures of DTC. None of the Issuer, PETRONAS, the Delegate, or any of their
respective agents will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of any participant’s records,
policies or procedures relating to, or for payments made on account of, beneficial interests in a Global
Certificate or for any other aspect of the relationship between DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the
case may be, and their participants, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating
to such beneficial interests.

All payments in relation to the Global Certificates will be made in immediately available funds.

The Issuer expects that DTC, Euroclear, Clearstream, or their respective nominees, upon receipt
of any payment in relation to the Global Certificates, will credit participants’ accounts with payments
in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such Global
Certificates as shown on the records of DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable. The Issuer also
expects that the payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in such Global Certificates
held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as
is now the case with securities held for the account of customers registered in “street names,” and will
be the responsibility of such participants.

Depositary Procedures

The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream
are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the
control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to change by them from time to time. The
Issuer, PETRONAS and the Transfer Agent take no responsibility for these operations and procedures
and urge investors to contact the system or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

The Issuer understands that DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the New
York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a
member of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New
York Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of
Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and facilitate
the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic
book-entry changes in accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical
movement of certificates. Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies
and clearing corporations and may include certain other organizations. Indirect access to DTC is
available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies, that clear through or maintain
a custodial relationship with a DTC participant, either directly or indirectly.

Euroclear advises that it was created in 1968 to hold securities for participants of Euroclear and
to clear and settle transactions among Euroclear participants through simultaneous electronic
book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear includes
various other services, including, securities lending and borrowing, and interfaces with domestic
markets in several countries. Euroclear is operated by Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (the “Euroclear
Operator”), under contract with Euroclear Clearance Systems S.C., a Belgian cooperative corporation
(the “Euroclear Clearance System”). All operations are conducted by the Euroclear Operator, and all
Euroclear securities clearance accounts and Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear
Operator, not the Euroclear Clearance System. The Euroclear Clearance System establishes policies
for Euroclear on behalf of Euroclear participants. Euroclear participants include banks (including
central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may
include the Managers. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through
or maintain a custodial relationship with Euroclear participants, either directly or indirectly. Euroclear
is an indirect participant in DTC. The Euroclear Operator is a Belgian bank. The Belgian Banking
Commission and the National Bank of Belgium regulate the Euroclear Operator.

125
Clearstream advises that it is incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg and licensed as a bank
and professional depositary. Clearstream holds securities for its participating organizations and
facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among its participants through
electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical
movement of certificates. Clearstream provides to its participants, among other things, services for
safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and
securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream interfaces with domestic markets in several countries.
Clearstream has established an electronic bridge with the Euroclear Operator, to facilitate the
settlement of trades between Clearstream and Euroclear. As a registered bank in Luxembourg,
Clearstream is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Commission for the Supervision of the
Financial Sector. Clearstream customers are recognized financial institutions around the world,
including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing
corporations. In the United States, Clearstream customers are limited to securities brokers and dealers
and banks, and may include the Managers. Other institutions that maintain a custodial relationship
with a Clearstream customer may obtain indirect access to Clearstream. Clearstream is an indirect
participant in DTC.

Settlement and Clearance

Initial settlement for the Certificates will be made in same-day funds. Transfers between
participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures, which currently provide
for settlement in same-day funds. Transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be
effected in the ordinary way in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Certificate will be limited to persons who have
accounts with DTC participants or persons who hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance
of a Global Certificate, DTC or its custodian will credit, on its internal system, the respective principal
amount of the beneficial interests represented by such Global Certificate to the accounts of its
participants. Such account initially will be designated by or on behalf of the Managers. Ownership of
beneficial interests in a Global Certificate will be shown only on, and the transfer of such ownership
interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee (with respect to
interests of participants), or by any such participant (with respect to interests of persons held by such
participants on their behalf). Payments, transfers, exchanges and other matters relating to beneficial
interests in a Global Certificate may be subject to various policies and procedures adopted by DTC,
Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, from time to time.

Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Certificates described above
and under “Transfer Restrictions,” cross-market transfers of Certificates between DTC, on the one
hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream, on the other hand, will be effected in DTC in accordance with
DTC rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary;
however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or
Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its rules and
procedures and within its established deadlines (Brussels time). Each of Euroclear or Clearstream, as
the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its
respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving
interests in the Unrestricted Global Certificates in DTC, and making or receiving payment in
accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Clearstream
accountholders and Euroclear accountholders may not deliver instructions directly to the depositaries
for Clearstream or Euroclear.

Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream


accountholder purchasing an interest in the Certificates from a DTC participant will be credited during
the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream)
immediately following the DTC settlement date, and such credit of any transactions in interests in a
Global Certificate settlement during such processing day will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or
Clearstream accountholder on such day. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales

126
of interests in a Global Certificate by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream accountholder to a DTC
participant will be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant
Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC.
Settlement between Euroclear or Clearstream accountholders and DTC participants cannot be made on
a delivery versus payment basis. The arrangements for transfer of payments must be established
separately from the arrangements for transfer of securities, the latter being effected on a free delivery
basis. The customary arrangements for delivery versus payment between Euroclear and Clearstream
accountholders or between DTC participants are not affected.

Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the procedures described above in
order to facilitate transfers of interests in the Global Certificates among participants of DTC,
Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such
procedures and such procedures may be modified or discontinued at any time. None of the Issuer,
PETRONAS, the Delegate or any of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the
performance by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect participants
of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

Notices

So long as all the Certificates are represented by Global Certificates and each Global Certificate
is held on behalf of DTC or its nominee, notices to Certificateholders may be given by delivery of the
relevant notice to the clearing systems for communication to entitled Certificateholders in substitution
for notification as required by the Conditions except that, so long as the Certificates are listed on any
securities exchange, notices shall also be published in accordance with the rules of such securities
exchange. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given to the Certificateholders on the day
after the day on which such notice is delivered to the relevant clearing systems.

Definitive Certificates

Beneficial interests in any Global Certificate may be exchanged for definitive (i.e., non-global)
certificates (collectively, the “Definitive Certificates” and each, a “Definitive Certificate”) in fully
registered form without coupons only in the event that (x) DTC notifies the Issuer in writing at any
time that DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a “clearing agency”
registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after
the Issuer is notified by DTC or becomes aware of such condition or (y) the Certificates have become
immediately due and payable pursuant to the Conditions.

Payment of the principal of any Definitive Certificate shall be made, upon presentation and
surrender of such Certificate, by check drawn on a bank which processes payments in U.S. dollars at
the option of the Holder, at the office of the Principal Paying Agent (initially as set forth on the inside
back cover hereto).

Payments in relation to any Certificate shall be made solely in U.S. dollars by check drawn on
a bank which processes payments in U.S. dollars, mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto
as such address shall appear on the securities register (the “Securities Register”) maintained by the
Registrar pursuant to the Agency Agreement. The Issuer, PETRONAS and the Registrar may deem and
treat the Certificateholder in whose name a Definitive Certificate is registered at the close of business
on the fifteenth day preceding such Periodic Distribution Date as the absolute owner of the Certificate
(notwithstanding any notice of ownership or other writing on such Certificate) for the purposes of
receiving payment on such Certificate or on account of such Certificate and for all other purposes.

The Certificateholders of Definitive Certificates shall present directly at the corporate trust
office of the Registrar in New York or of any other Transfer Agent, all requests for the registration
of any transfer of such Certificates, for the exchange of such Certificates for one or more new
Definitive Certificates in the like aggregate principal amount and in authorized denominations and for
the replacement of such Certificates in cases of mutilation, destruction, loss or theft. Every certificate

127
representing Definitive Certificates presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for
exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing. The registration of any transfer of Definitive Certificates in the
Securities Register is also subject to any reasonable requirements of the Issuer and the Registrar.
Except for the expenses of delivery other than by regular mail, no service charge shall be made for
any exchange or registration of transfer, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any stamp tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. No registrations
of transfers or exchanges of Definitive Certificates shall be made of any such Certificates that have
been called for redemption.

The Agency Agreement provides that Definitive Certificates will be issued to replace Definitive
Certificates which have been mutilated, destroyed, defaced, stolen or lost upon payment of certain
costs associated with such replacement and on certain terms as to evidence and indemnity. In the case
of destroyed, stolen or lost Definitive Certificates, replacement Definitive Certificates will not be
issued if either the Issuer or the Registrar has been notified that such Certificates have been acquired
by a bona fide purchaser. Mutilated or defaced Definitive Certificates must be surrendered before
replacements will be issued. In the event any such mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Definitive

branch office of the Registrar or at the office of any such other Transfer Agent as the Issuer may
designate from time to time, or (at the risk of the Certificateholder) sent by mail to such address as
is specified by the Certificateholder in the Certificateholder’s request for transfer, exchange or
replacement.

SUMMARY OF TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS

The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Transaction Documents and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of those Transaction Documents. Copies of the
Transaction Documents will be available for inspection at the offices of the Principal Paying Agent.
Phrases used in the following summary that are not otherwise defined in this summary have the
meanings given to them in “Terms and Conditions of the Certificates.”

Purchase Agreement

PETRONAS Penapisan (Melaka) Sdn. Bhd. will sell to the Issuer its beneficial ownership
interest in the assets described in the Purchase Agreement entered into with the Issuer. The proceeds
received by the Issuer from the issuance and sale of the Certificates will be used to pay the purchase
price of such assets.

Lease Agreement

Pursuant to the Lease Agreement to be dated the Closing Date between the Issuer as Lessor and
PETRONAS as Lessee, the Lessee will lease the Leased Assets (as defined in Condition 4.1) (the
“Lease”). The Lease will commence on the Closing Date and shall, unless terminated earlier following
a Termination Event, Total Loss Event or exercise of PETRONAS’ option under the Sale Undertaking
to redeem the Certificates following a Tax Event, comprise 10 consecutive lease periods of 6 months
each (each a “Lease Period”). The first Lease Period shall commence on the Closing Date and each
of the 9 subsequent Lease Periods shall commence on the day immediately following the end of the
previous Lease Period.

Under the terms of the Lease Agreement, the Lessee will agree that the Lessor shall not be liable
to the Lessee or to any third party for any cost, claim, demand, loss, injury, damage or expense of any
kind or nature caused directly or indirectly by, or out of, the use of any part or the whole of the Leased
Assets. The Lessee will agree to fully reimburse, compensate and save harmless the Lessor and its
directors, officers, employees and duly appointed representatives against all and any such costs,
claims, demands, losses, damages and expenses.

The rental payments for each Lease Period (the “Rental”) shall in respect of each Lease Period
be an amount in US dollars equal to the aggregate of:

(a) the product of (i) the Sukuk Issue Amount, (ii) the Periodic Distribution Rate, and (iii) the
number of days (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting of 12 months of
30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the actual number of days) to elapse
in the relevant Lease Period divided by 360; and

(b) the Servicing Agency Expenses (if any) incurred by the Lessor during the previous Lease
Period,

save that the Rental for the final Lease Period shall be less the Reduction Amount.

The Lessee shall, at its own cost and expense, be responsible for the performance of all Ordinary
Maintenance and Repair (as defined in the Lease Agreement).

If payment of any amount that is due and payable in accordance with the Lease Agreement (the
“Outstanding Sum”) is not made to the Lessor in full on its due date for payment, the Lessee
irrevocably undertakes to pay the Lessor a late payment in respect of the period from, and including,
the due date for payment to, but excluding, the date of full payment (or, if earlier, the due date for
payment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the Purchase Undertaking), calculated on a daily basis as
the product of (a) the Periodic Distribution Rate; (b) the Outstanding Sum; and (c) a fraction the
numerator of which is the number of days (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting

129
of 12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the actual number of days) from
(and including) the due date for payment of the Outstanding Sum to (but excluding) the date of full
payment, and the denominator of which is 360. The Lessor undertakes, after deducting any reasonable
and documented administrative and other costs incurred by the Issuer, to pay such late payment
amount (on behalf of the Lessee) to the Red Crescent Society being the charity of the Lessee’s choice.

Upon the occurrence of a Total Loss Event, the Lease Agreement shall be automatically
terminated and the Lessor will be entitled to all insurance proceeds payable (if any) as a result of the
Total Loss Event. Save for Rental pro rata to, but excluding, the date Total Loss Event occurs, which
shall become immediately due and payable on the date Total Loss Event occurs, the liability of the
Lessee to pay Rental under the Lease shall cease.

benefit of the holders thereof any guarantee or indemnity in respect thereof) without, in any
such case, effectively providing that any payment obligations owed by it to the Lessor

Attributable Debt of the Lessee in respect of such Sale/Leaseback Transaction and all other
Sale/Leaseback Transactions (other than such transactions as are permitted by clause (y)
below), plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness secured by Liens
then outstanding (excluding any such Indebtedness secured by Liens described in clauses
(i) through (v) of paragraph (c) above), which Liens do not equally and ratably secure the
payment obligations owed by it to the Lessor under any Transaction Document, would not

the Exchange Act or the requirements of Rule 12g3-2(b) thereunder, provide to any
Certificateholder or prospective purchaser of such Certificate designated by such
Certificateholder, upon the request of such prospective purchaser or Certificateholder, the
information required to be provided by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding the early termination of the Lease, and without prejudice to any continuing
obligations of the Lessee under the Lease Agreement, the Lessee’s liability to the Lessor for the
payment of Rental accrued to, but excluding, the date of such termination and for any other moneys
payable, accruing or becoming due prior to or upon such termination shall not be affected. If the

including, without limitation, Total Loss Event, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set out below:

132
(i) ensure that any such insurance:

(1) shall be for an insured amount, at all times, at least equal to the full reinstatement
value of the Leased Assets. The Servicing Agent, having regard to its covenant to
maintain the full value of the Leased Assets, shall ensure that the full reinstatement
value of the Leased Assets is not less than the Lease Dissolution Distribution Amount;
and

(2) is provided by a reputable insurer and/or Islamic takaful insurer and one which is at
all times in good financial standing (having full regard to paragraph (i)(1) above);

(ii) make such enquiries and obtain such assurances as it deems fit to ensure that paragraph

Transaction Account by the 30th day after Total Loss Event occurring due to any default on
the part of the Servicing Agent, the Servicing Agent shall be responsible for such insurance
amounts.

The Servicing Agency Agreement provides that the Servicing Agent will be, and shall at all times
remain, fully responsible, if the insurer’s failure to pay arises as a result of any failure by it to strictly
comply with its insurance obligations under the Servicing Agency Agreement. If, following a Total
Loss Event, the Servicing Agency Agreement is not complied with, the Servicing Agent acknowledges
that it will have failed with its obligation to procure such insurances, and if as a result the amount
credited to the Transaction Account pursuant to paragraph (vi) above (if any) is less than the Lease
Dissolution Distribution Amount (the difference between the Lease Dissolution Distribution Amount
and the amount credited to the Transaction Account being the “Total Loss Shortfall Amount”), the
Servicing Agent irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay (in same day, freely transferable,
cleared funds) the Total Loss Shortfall Amount directly into the Transaction Account by no later than
10:00 am in New York on the 31st day after Total Loss Event has occurred. Thereafter and subject to
the Servicing Agent’s strict compliance with the relevant provisions of the Servicing Agency
Agreement, any insurance proceeds received shall be for the Servicing Agent’s sole account, and the
Lessor will have no further rights to such insurance proceeds in excess of the Lease Dissolution
Distribution Amount.

137
TAXATION

Malaysian Tax Considerations

As PETRONAS Global Sukuk Ltd. is incorporated under the Labuan Companies Act 1990,
payments on the Certificates (as well as payments made by PETRONAS under the Lease Agreement,
the Servicing Agency Agreement, the Purchase Undertaking and the Sale Undertaking) will be exempt
from Malaysian withholding tax, and non-residents of Malaysia will not be required to pay income tax
in Malaysia with respect to periodic distributions and other payments received in respect of the
Certificates. Under Malaysian law, a company is regarded as a “non-resident” if the management and
control of its affairs are not exercised in Malaysia at any time by its directors or other controlling
authority. The rules regarding the residency status of individuals are complex but are generally based
upon the length of time spent in Malaysia.

In addition, any profit paid or credited to any person (including residents of Malaysia) in respect
of the Certificates is exempted from income tax in Malaysia pursuant to Paragraph 33B of Schedule
6 of the Income Tax Act 1967 of Malaysia on the basis that the Certificates are Islamic securities (not
being an exchangeable loan stock) originating in Malaysia and approved by the Securities
Commission. “Resident” means in relation to a natural person, a citizen or permanent resident of
Malaysia; or in relation to any other person, a person who has established a place of business and is
operating in Malaysia and includes a person who is declared to be resident pursuant to Section 214
of the Financial Services Act 2013 of Malaysia.

Malaysia has no estate, inheritance or capital transfer tax in respect of the Certificates. In
addition, neither the issuance nor transfer of the Certificates outside Malaysia will give rise to any
capital gains, stamp duty, registration or similar taxes or duties in Malaysia.

Payments of or in respect of principal and profit on the Certificates, and any capital gains
realized on the sale or exchange of the Certificates, are not subject to the payment of any repatriation
levy under Malaysia’s exchange control measures.

United States Tax Considerations

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to the
ownership of Certificates by a beneficial owner of a Certificate that is, for U.S. federal income tax
purposes (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a domestic corporation or (iii) otherwise
subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis with respect to income from a Certificate (a “U.S.
Holder”). The summary is based on laws, regulations, rulings and decisions now in effect, all of which
are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. This summary deals only with Certificateholders
that purchased Certificates in this distribution and that hold Certificates as capital assets. This
summary does not purport to deal with persons subject to special rules, such as financial institutions,
insurance companies, dealers in securities or foreign currencies, tax-exempt entities, entities taxed as
partnerships and partners therein, persons holding Certificates as a hedge against, or which are hedged
against, currency risks, or persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Further, this
summary does not address the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on net investment income,
or other aspects of U.S. federal income or state and local taxation that may be relevant to a U.S. Holder
in light of such Holder’s particular circumstances.

Investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of holding
Certificates, including the application to their particular circumstances of the tax considerations
discussed below, as well as the application of state, local and other national tax laws.

138
Overview

The Certificates will be analyzed for U.S. tax purposes under the rules applicable to debt
instruments. In turn, the United States holders will not be required to take account of income and
expenses incurred at the level of the trust.

Taxation of Interest and Additional Amounts

A U.S. Holder will treat the gross amount of periodic distributions and additional amounts, if any
(i.e., without reduction for Malaysian withholding taxes), as ordinary interest income with respect to
the Certificates. In the event that the Certificates are issued with more than de minimis original issue
discount (⬙OID⬙) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Holder will be required to include OID
in income on a constant-yield basis over the life of the Certificates, regardless of its method of
accounting. Such periodic distributions will be treated as foreign source income for purposes of
calculating that U.S. Holder’s foreign tax credit limitation. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for
foreign tax credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose,
such income should generally constitute “passive income” (or, in the case of certain U.S. Holders,
“financial services income”). A U.S. Holder may be entitled to deduct or credit any Malaysian
withholding taxes, subject to applicable limitations. Foreign tax credits will not be allowed for
withholding taxes imposed in respect of certain short-term or hedged positions or in respect of certain
arrangements in which a U.S. Holder’s expected economic profit, after foreign taxes, is insubstantial.
The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. Investors are urged to consult their tax
advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

A U.S. Holder that purchases a Certificate for an amount in excess of its stated principal amount
will be considered to have purchased the Certificate with “amortizable bond premium” which the U.S.
Holder may elect to amortize over the remaining term of the Certificate on a yield to maturity basis.
Amortizable bond premium allocable to an accrual period may be used to offset periodic distributions
includible on the Certificate. A U.S. Holder who elects to amortize bond premium must reduce its tax
basis by the amount of premium that is used to offset periodic distributions. The election, if made,
applies to all debt instruments held by the U.S. Holder and may be revoked only with the consent of
the United States Internal Revenue Service.

A Certificateholder of Certificates that is, with respect to the United States, a foreign corporation
or a nonresident alien individual that is not a U.S. Holder (a “Non-U.S. Holder”) generally will not
be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on periodic distributions or additional amounts
earned in respect of Certificates.

Taxation of the Sale, Exchange or Disposition of a Certificate

Upon the sale, exchange or retirement of a Certificate, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize
gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange or retirement
(less any accrued periodic distributions, which will be taxable as described above) and the U.S.
Holder’s tax basis in such Certificate. Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder generally will be
long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the Certificate for more than one year at the
time of disposition. Long-term capital gain recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders may be
eligible for preferential rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Gain or loss
realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of a Certificate generally will be
treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

A Non-U.S. Holder of Certificates will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax
on gain realized on the sale or other disposition of Certificates.

139
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Periodic distributions on the Certificates, and payments of the proceeds of a sale of Certificates,
that are paid within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries are
subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding unless the holder (i) is an
exempt recipient that, if required, demonstrates its exemption or (ii) provides a taxpayer identification
number and certifies that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred. Non-U.S.
Holders generally are not subject to U.S. information reporting requirements or U.S. backup
withholding. However, a Non-U.S. Holder may be required to certify as to its non-U.S. status in
connection with payments received within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial
intermediaries.

European Union Savings Directive

Under Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income (the “Savings
Directive”), each Member State of the European Union is required to provide to the tax authorities
of another such Member State details of payments of interest or other similar income paid by a person
within its jurisdiction to, or secured by such a person for, an individual beneficial owner resident in,
or certain limited types of entity established in, that other Member State. However, for a transitional
period, Austria will (unless during such period it elects otherwise) instead operate a withholding
system in relation to such payments. The rate of withholding is 35%. However, the beneficial owner
of the interest (or similar income) payment may elect that certain provision of information procedures
should be applied instead of withholding, provided that certain conditions are met. The transitional
period is to terminate at the end of the first full fiscal year following agreement by certain non-EU
countries to exchange of information procedures relating to interest and other similar income.

A number of non-EU countries and certain dependent or associated territories of certain Member
States have adopted similar measures to the Savings Directive.

The Council of the European Union has adopted a Directive amending the Savings Directive (the
“Amending Directive”) which, when implemented, will broaden the Savings Directive’s scope. The
Member States will have until January 1, 2016 to adopt national legislation necessary to comply with
the Amending Directive, which legislation must apply from January 1, 2017. The changes made under
the Amending Directive include extending the scope of the Savings Directive to payments made to,
or secured for, certain other entities and legal arrangements (including certain trusts and partnerships),
where certain conditions are satisfied. They also broaden the definition of “interest payment” to cover
certain additional types of income. Investors who are in any doubt as to their position should consult
their professional advisors.

The Savings Directive may, however, be repealed in due course in order to avoid overlap with
the amended Council Directive 2011/16/EU on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation,
pursuant to which Member States other than Austria will be required to apply other new measures on
mandatory automatic exchange of information from January 1, 2016. Austria has an additional year
before being required to implement the new measures but it has announced that it will nevertheless
begin to exchange information automatically in accordance with the timetable applicable to the other
Member States.

If a payment under a Certificate were to be made and an amount of, or in respect of, tax were
to be withheld from that payment pursuant to the Savings Directive (as amended from time to time)
or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive,
neither the Issuer, nor the Guarantor, nor any other person would be obliged to pay additional amounts
under the terms of such Certificate as a result of the imposition of such withholding tax. The Issuer
is required to maintain a Paying Agent in a Member State that is not obliged to withhold or deduct
tax pursuant to the Savings Directive (as amended from time to time).

140
United Kingdom Provision of Information Requirements

The comments below are of a general nature and are based on the Issuer’s understanding of
current law and practice in the United Kingdom relating to a requirement for certain persons to
provide information to the United Kingdom HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”).

Persons in the United Kingdom paying interest or certain other payments to, or receiving interest
or certain other payments on behalf of, another person who is an individual, may be required to
provide certain information to HMRC regarding the identity of the payee or person entitled to the
interest or other payment and, in certain circumstances, such information may be exchanged with tax
authorities in other jurisdictions.

141

The Certificate Purchase Agreement provides that the several, not joint, obligations of the
Managers to pay for and accept delivery of the Certificates are subject to approval of certain legal
matters by their legal counsel and to certain other conditions. The Certificate Purchase Agreement
provides that the Managers are obligated to purchase all of the Certificates if any are purchased. The
Certificate Purchase Agreement also provides that if a Manager defaults, the purchase commitments
of non-defaulting Managers may be increased or the offering may be terminated.

Separate provision has been made among PETRONAS, the Issuer and the Managers for payment
of management and selling commissions of U.S.$2,500,000 in respect of the offering and sale of the
Certificates.

The Managers propose to offer the Certificates at the offering price on the cover page of this
Offering Circular.

The Issuer and PETRONAS have agreed that they will not offer, sell, contract to sell, announce
their intention to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any U.S. dollar
denominated debt securities issued by the Issuer or issued or guaranteed by PETRONAS and having
a maturity of more than one year from the date of issue without the prior written consent of the
Managers for a period of 90 days after the date of this Offering Circular.

The Issuer and PETRONAS have agreed to indemnify the Managers against certain liabilities or
to contribute to payments which they may be required to make in respect thereof. These
indemnification and contribution provisions also cover certain U.S.-registered broker-dealer affiliates
of the Managers that offer and sell the Certificates in the United States to qualified institutional buyers
pursuant to Rule 144A. The Issuer and PETRONAS have also agreed to reimburse the Managers for
certain expenses.

New Issue of Certificates

The Certificates are a new issuance of securities for which there currently is no trading market.
The Issuer and PETRONAS have been advised by the Managers that they may make a market in the
Certificates as permitted by applicable law. The Managers are not obligated, however, to make a

142
market in the Certificates and any such market making may be discontinued at any time at their sole
discretion. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the continuation or liquidity of any market
for the Certificates. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Certificates—The Certificates are a new
issue of securities for which there is currently no public market; you may be unable to sell the
Certificates if a trading market for the Certificates does not develop or if the Certificates have limited
liquidity.”

Approval-in-principle has been obtained for: (i) the listing of the Certificates on, and admission
to the Official List of, the Labuan International Financial Exchange, and (ii) the listing of the
Certificates on, and the admission to the Official List of, the Bursa Malaysia (Exempt Regime); and
application has been made for the listing of the Certificates on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The
offering and settlement of the Certificates are not conditional on obtaining any of these listings. See
“Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Certificates—A listing of the Certificates on a securities
exchange cannot be guaranteed.”

Certain Terms and Arrangements of the Offering

It is expected that delivery of the Certificates will be made against payment therefor on the
Closing Date, which will be on or about the fifth business day following the pricing of the Certificates.
Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to
settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise.
Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Certificates on the date hereof or the next succeeding
business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Certificates initially will settle on or about
T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed
settlement. Purchasers of Certificates who wish to trade Certificates on the date hereof or the next
succeeding business day should consult their own advisor.

In connection with the offering, the Managers may, to the extent permitted by applicable laws
and directives, engage in transactions that stabilize or otherwise affect the market price of the
Certificates for a limited period after the issue date. These transactions consist of bids or purchases
for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the Certificates. If the Managers create
a short position in the Certificates in connection with the Offering (i.e., if the Managers sell more
Certificates than are set forth on the cover page of this Offering Circular), the Managers may reduce
that short position by purchasing Certificates in the open market. In general, purchases of Certificates
for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the Certificates
to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases. There is no assurance, however, that
the Managers will undertake stabilization action.

None of the Issuer, PETRONAS and the Managers makes any representation or prediction as to
the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price
of the Certificates. In addition, none of the Issuer, PETRONAS and the Managers makes any
representation that the Managers will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once
commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Other Relationships

In the ordinary course of their business, certain of the Managers and their affiliates have
performed, and may in the future perform, investment banking and/or commercial banking services for
PETRONAS.

Selling Restrictions

United States

The Certificates may be offered and sold in the United States to qualified institutional buyers
pursuant to Rule 144A.

143
The Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or under any
applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for
the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule
144A and to certain persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S. Each of the Managers
has agreed that, except as permitted by the Purchase Agreement, it will not offer, sell or deliver the
Certificates (i) as part of its distribution at any time or otherwise until 40 days after the later of the
commencement of the offering and the closing date, within the United States or to, or for the account
or benefit of, U.S. persons, and it will have sent to each broker-dealer to which it sells the Certificates
in reliance on Regulation S during such 40-day period, a confirmation or other notice detailing the
restrictions on offers and sales of the Certificates within the United States or to, or for the account
or benefit of, U.S. persons. Terms used in this paragraph have the meanings given to them by
Regulation S. Resales of the Certificates are restricted as described under “Transfer Restrictions.”

In addition, until 40 days after the commencement of the offering, an offer or sale of Certificates
within the United States by a broker-dealer (whether or not it is participating in the offering), may
violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act if such offer or sale is made otherwise than
pursuant to Rule 144A.

European Economic Area

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the
Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), with effect from and including the date on
which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “Relevant
Implementation Date”), each Manager has not made and will not make an offer of Certificates which
are the subject of the offering contemplated by the Offering Circular to the public in that Relevant
Member State, except that it may, with effect from and including the Relevant Implementation Date,
make an offer of such Certificates to the public in that Relevant Member State:

(i) at any time to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus
Directive;

(ii) at any time to fewer than 100 or, if the Relevant Member State has implemented the relevant
provision of the 2010 PD Amending Directive, 150 natural or legal persons (other than
qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), subject to obtaining the prior
consent of the Managers nominated by the Issuer and the Guarantor for any such offer; or

(iii) at any time in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus
Directive,

provided that no such offer of Certificates referred to above shall require the Issuer, the Obligor or
any Manager to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement
a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.

For the purposes of the above, the expression an “offer of Certificates to the public” in relation
to any Certificates in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any
means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Certificates to be offered so as to
enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Certificates, as the same may be varied in
that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, the
expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including
the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and
includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression “2010
PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.

144
United Kingdom

Each of the Managers has agreed that it has only communicated or caused to be communicated
and will only communicate or cause to be communicated, an invitation or inducement to engage in
investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000)

21(1) of such Act does not apply to the Issuer or PETRONAS and it has complied and will comply
with all applicable provisions of such Act with respect to anything done by it in relation to any
Certificates in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

Malaysia

This Offering Circular has not been registered as a prospectus with the Securities Commission
Malaysia under the Capital Markets and Services Act 2007 of Malaysia and accordingly, the
Certificates may not be offered, sold or delivered, directly or indirectly, nor may any document or
other material in connection therewith be distributed in Malaysia, other than to persons falling within
any one of the categories of persons specified under Schedule 6 (or Section 229(1)(b)), Schedule 7 (or
Section 230(1)(b)), and Schedule 8 (or Section 257(3)), read together with Schedule 9 (or Section

or official directive of Central Bank of Malaysia, Securities Commission Malaysia and/or any other
regulatory authority from time to time.

In addition, residents of Malaysia may be required to obtain relevant regulatory approvals,


including approval from the Controller of Foreign Exchange to purchase the Certificates. The onus is
on the Malaysian residents concerned to obtain such regulatory approvals and none of the Managers
is responsible for any invitation, offer, sale or purchase of the Certificates as aforesaid without the
necessary approvals being in place.

An invitation to subscribe for, or an offer to purchase the Certificates may only be made into
Labuan if such Certificates are offered for subscription or sale, sold, transferred or otherwise disposed

147
TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

Because of the following restrictions, purchasers are advised to consult legal counsel prior to
making any offer, sale, resale, pledge or other transfer of the Certificates.

The Issuer has not registered the Certificates under the Securities Act and the Certificates may
not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, any U.S. person
except to (i) qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A and (ii) non-U.S. persons in
offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S. Terms used above and otherwise in this section of
the Offering Circular have the meanings given to them by Regulation S and Rule 144A.

Each purchaser of Certificates will be deemed to have represented and agreed as follows:

1. You understand and acknowledge that the Certificates have not been registered under the
Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and that the Certificates are being
offered for resale in transactions not requiring registration under the Securities Act or any
other securities laws, including resales pursuant to Rule 144A, and, unless so registered,
may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an exemption
therefrom, or in a transaction not subject thereto, and in each case in compliance with the

You are not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuer or
PETRONAS, you are not acting on their behalf and you are either:

(a) a qualified institutional buyer and are aware that any sale of these Certificates to you
will be made in reliance on Rule 144A and such acquisition will be for your own

with respect to the Issuer, PETRONAS or the offer or sale of any of the Certificates, other
than the information contained in this Offering Circular, which Offering Circular has been
delivered to you and upon which you are relying in making your investment decision with
respect to the Certificates. You acknowledge that the Managers make no representation or
warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of this Offering Circular. You have had access

Certificates, including an opportunity to ask questions of, and request information from, the

3. You are purchasing Certificates for your own account, or for one or more investor accounts
for which you are acting as a fiduciary or agent, in each case for investment, and not with

or the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times within your or their
control and subject to your or their ability to resell such Certificates pursuant to Rule 144A,
Regulation S or any other available exemption from registration available under the
Securities Act. You agree on your own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for
which you are purchasing the Certificates, and each subsequent holder of these Certificates
by its acceptance thereof will agree, to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Certificates
prior to (x) the date which is one year (or such shorter period of time as permitted by Rule
144(d) under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder) after the later of the

date of the original issue of these Certificates and the last date on which the Issuer,
PETRONAS or any of their affiliates were the owner of such Certificates (or any

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

1.1 Statement of compliance

The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared in accordance with
Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS”) and International Financial Reporting Standards.

At the beginning of the current financial year, the Group and the Company had adopted amendments to
MFRS and IC Interpretation (collectively referred to as “pronouncements”) that have been issued
by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (“MASB”) as described fully in note 43.

The Group and the Company have early adopted Amendments to MFRS 132 Financial Instruments:
Presentation – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities in the financial year ended 31
December 2013.

MASB has also issued new and revised pronouncements which are not yet effective for the Group and
the Company and therefore, have not been adopted for in these financial statements. These
pronouncements including their impact on the financial statements in the period of initial application
are set out in note 44. New and revised pronouncements that are not relevant to the operations of the
Group and of the Company are set out in note 45.

The financial statements were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on
26 February 2015.

1.2 Basis of measurement

The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared on historical cost basis
except that, as disclosed in the accounting policies below, certain items are measured at fair value.

1.3 Functional and presentation currency

The individual financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The Group
and the Company’s financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Company’s
functional currency.

1.4 Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRS requires management to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods
affected.

F-17
Company No. 20076-K

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

1.4 Use of estimates and judgments (continued)

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in
applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the
financial statements are described in the following notes:
i. Note 3 : Property, Plant and Equipment;
ii. Note 10 : Intangible Assets;
iii. Note 14 : Deferred Tax;
iv. Note 24 : Other Long Term Liabilities and Provisions; and
v. Note 41 : Financial Instruments.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these
financial statements and have been applied consistently by the Group entities, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities, including structured entities, controlled by the Company. The Group controls
an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Potential voting rights are
considered when assessing control only when such rights are substantive. The Group considers it has
de facto power over an investee when, despite not having the majority of voting rights, it has the
current ability to direct the activities of the investee that significantly affect the investee’s return.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements of the
Group from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

All inter-company transactions are eliminated on consolidation and revenue and profits relate to
external transactions only. Unrealised losses resulting from inter-company transactions are also
eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered.

Business combinations

A business combination is a transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or
more businesses. Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at their fair values at the acquisition
date. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration
transferred and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. Non-controlling interests
are stated either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the
acquisition date.

F-18
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.1 Basis of consolidation (continued)

Business combinations (continued)

When a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held non-
controlling equity interest in the acquiree at fair value at the acquisition date, with any resulting gain or
loss recognised in the profit or loss. Increase in the Group’s ownership interest in an existing
subsidiary is accounted for as equity transactions with differences between the fair value of
consideration paid and the Group’s proportionate share of net assets acquired, recognised directly in
equity.

The Group measures goodwill as the excess of the cost of an acquisition as defined above and the fair
value of any previously held interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable assets
acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. When the excess is negative, a bargain
purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Goodwill arising from business combinations prior to 1 October 2009 is stated at the previous carrying
amount less subsequent impairments, pursuant to the adoption of MFRS framework by the Group in
the financial year ended 31 December 2012.

Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, that the
Group incurs in connection with a business combination, are expensed as incurred.

Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests at the end of the reporting period, being the portion of the net assets of
subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that are not owned by the Company, whether directly or
indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position and
statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the shareholders of
the Company. Non-controlling interests in the results of the Group are presented in the consolidated
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as an allocation of the profit or loss and
total comprehensive income for the year between the non-controlling interests and shareholders of the
Company.

Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling
interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.

The Group treats all changes in its ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of
control as equity transactions between the Group and its non-controlling interest holders. Any
difference between the Group’s share of net assets before and after the change, and any consideration
received or paid, is adjusted to or against Group reserves.

Loss of control

Upon loss of control of a subsidiary, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the former
subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the former
subsidiary from the consolidated statement of financial position. Any surplus or deficit arising on the
loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous
subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is
accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on
the level of influence retained.

F-19
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.2 Associates

Associates are entities in which the Group has significant influence including representation on the
Board of Directors, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies of the
investee company.

Associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. The
consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of post-acquisition profits or losses and
other comprehensive income of the equity-accounted associates, after adjustments to align the
accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until
the date that significant influence ceases.

The Group’s share of post-acquisition reserves and retained profits less losses is added to the carrying
value of the investment in the consolidated statement of financial position. These amounts are taken
from the latest audited financial statements or management financial statements of the associates.

When the Group’s share of post-acquisition losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted associate,
the carrying amount of that interest (including any long term investments) is reduced to nil and the
recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has
made payments on behalf of the associate.

When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate, it is accounted for as a disposal
of the entire interest in that associate, with the resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss.
Any retained interest in the former associate at the date when significant influence is lost is re-
measured at fair value and this amount is regarded as the initial carrying amount of a financial asset.

When the Group’s interest in an associate decreases but does not result in loss of significant influence,
any retained interest is not remeasured. Any gain or loss arising from the decrease in interest is
recognised in profit or loss. Any gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income
are also reclassified proportionately to the profit or loss if that gain or loss would be required to be
reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets and liabilities.

Unrealised profits arising from transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the
extent of the Group’s interests in the associates. Unrealised losses on such transactions are also
eliminated partially, unless cost cannot be recovered.

2.3 Joint arrangements

Joint arrangements are arrangements of which the Group has joint control, established by contracts
requiring unanimous consent for decisions about the activities that significantly affect the
arrangements’ returns.

Joint arrangements are classified as either joint operation or joint venture. A joint arrangement is
classified as joint operation when the Group or the Company has rights to the assets and obligations for
the liabilities relating to an arrangement. The Group and the Company account for each of its share of
the assets, liabilities and transactions, including its share of those held or incurred jointly with the other
investors, in relation to the joint operation. A joint arrangement is classified as joint venture when the
Group has rights only to the net assets of the arrangement. The Group accounts for its interest in the
joint venture using the equity method as described in note 2.2.

F-20
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.4 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation

Freehold land and projects-in-progress are stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses and are
not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
and accumulated impairment losses.

Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets and any other
costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to working condition for their intended use, and the
costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. The cost
of self-constructed assets also includes the cost of material and direct labour. For qualifying assets,
borrowing costs are capitalised in accordance with the accounting policy on borrowing costs.
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of
that equipment.

When the use of a property changes from owner-occupied to investment property, the property is
reclassified as investment property at cost.

When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are
accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

The cost of replacing a component of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the
carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the
component will flow to the Group or the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying
amount of the replaced item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised with any corresponding
gain or loss recognised in the profit or loss accordingly. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of
property, plant and equipment are recognised in the profit or loss as incurred.

Depreciation for property, plant and equipment other than freehold land, oil and gas properties and
projects-in-progress, is recognised in the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of each component of an item of property, plant and equipment. Property, plant and equipment
are not depreciated until the assets are ready for their intended use.

Amortisation of producing oil and gas properties is computed based on the unit of production method
using total proved and probable reserves for capitalised acquisition costs and total proved and probable
developed reserves for capitalised exploration and development costs.

Lease properties are depreciated over the lease term or the estimated useful lives, whichever is
shorter. Leasehold land is depreciated over the lease term.

The estimated useful lives of the other property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Buildings 14 - 50 years
Plant and equipment 3 - 67 years
Office equipment, furniture and fittings 5 - 10 years
Computer software and hardware 5 years
Motor vehicles 3 - 5 years
Vessels 25 - 40 years

Estimates in respect of certain items of property, plant and equipment were revised during the year
(refer note 3).

F-21
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.4 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation (continued)

The depreciable amount is determined after deducting residual value. The residual value, useful life
and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year end to ensure that the amount, period and
method of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption
of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any,
and the net carrying amount is recognised in the profit or loss.

2.5 Investment properties

Investment properties are properties which are owned either to earn rental income or for capital
appreciation or for both. Properties that are occupied by the companies in the Group are accounted for
as owner-occupied rather than as investment properties.

Freehold land and projects-in-progress are stated at cost and are not depreciated. Other investment
properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any,
consistent with the accounting policy for property, plant and equipment as stated in note 2.4.

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property. The
cost of self-constructed investment property includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other
costs directly attributable to bringing the investment property to a working condition for its intended
use and capitalised borrowing costs.

Depreciation is recognised in the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives
ranging between 10 and 50 years for buildings.

An investment property is derecognised on its disposal, or when it is permanently withdrawn from use
and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal. The difference between the net
disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the
item is derecognised.

2.6 Land held for development

Land held for development consists of land or such portions thereof on which no development
activities have been carried out or where development activities are not expected to be completed
within the normal operating cycle. Such land is classified as non-current asset and is stated at the lower
of cost and net realisable value consistent with the accounting policy for inventories as stated in note
2.16.

Cost includes acquisition cost of land and attributable development expenditure. Cost associated with
the acquisition of land includes the purchase price of the land, professional fees, stamp duties,
commissions, conversion fees and other relevant levies. Development expenditure includes the cost for
development of main infrastructure works.

F-22
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.6 Land held for development (continued)

Land held for development is reclassified as properties under development at the point when
development activities have commenced and where it can be demonstrated that the development
activities can be completed within the normal operating cycle. Properties under development is, in
turn, reclassified as developed properties held for sale upon completion of the development activities.

Properties under development and developed properties held for sale are recognised as trade and other
inventories in current assets. The accounting policy is described separately in note 2.16.

2.7 Leased assets

A lease arrangement is accounted for as finance or operating lease in accordance with the accounting
policy as stated below. When the fulfilment of an arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific
asset and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, it is accounted for as a lease in accordance
with the accounting policy below although the arrangement does not take the legal form of a lease.

Finance lease

A lease is recognised as a finance lease if it transfers substantially to the Group and the Company all
the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. Upon initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at
an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy
applicable to that asset. The corresponding liability is included in the statement of financial position as
borrowings.

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance costs and the
reduction of the outstanding liability. Finance costs, which represent the difference between the total
leasing commitments and the fair value of the assets acquired, are recognised in the profit or loss and
allocated over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining
balance of the liability for each accounting period.

Contingent lease payments, if any, are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the
remaining term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed.

Leasehold land which in substance is a finance lease is classified as property, plant and equipment, or
as investment property if held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both.

Operating lease

All leases that do not transfer substantially to the Group and the Company all the risks and rewards
incidental to ownership are classified as operating leases and, the leased assets are not recognised on
the Group’s and the Company’s statement of financial position.

Payments made under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss on a straight-
line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as a reduction of rental
expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in
the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Leasehold land which in substance is an operating lease is classified as prepaid lease payments.

F-23
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.7 Leased assets (continued)

Prepaid lease payments

Prepaid rental and leasehold land which in substance is an operating lease are classified as prepaid
lease payments. The payments made on entering into a lease arrangement or acquiring a leasehold land
are accounted for as prepaid lease payments that are amortised over the lease term in accordance with
the pattern of benefits provided.

Leasehold land is classified into long lease and short lease. Long lease is defined as a lease with an
unexpired lease period of 50 years or more. Short lease is defined as a lease with an unexpired lease
period of less than 50 years.

2.8 Investments

Long term investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are stated at cost less impairment
loss, if any, in the Company’s financial statements unless the investment is classified as held for sale or
distribution. The cost of investments includes transaction costs.

The carrying amount of these investments includes fair value adjustments on shareholder’s loans and
advances, if any (note 2.12(i)).

2.9 Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill arising from business combinations is initially measured at cost as described in note 2.1.
Following the initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill is not amortised but instead, it is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

In respect of equity-accounted investees, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying
amount of the investment. The entire carrying amount of the investment is reviewed for impairment
when there is objective evidence of impairment.

Exploration expenditure

Intangible assets also include expenditure on the exploration for and evaluation of oil and natural gas
resources (hereinafter collectively referred to as “exploration expenditure”). The accounting policy for
exploration expenditure is described separately in note 2.10.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets other than goodwill and exploration expenditure are measured on initial recognition at
cost. The costs of intangible assets acquired in a business combination are their fair values as at the
date of acquisition.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less
accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

F-24
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.9 Intangible assets (continued)

Other intangible assets (continued)

Amortisation for intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised in the profit or loss on a
straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful lives, other than certain recoverable expenditure
incurred under a service contract which is amortised based on unit of production method. The
amortisation method and the useful life for intangible assets are reviewed at least at each reporting
date. Intangible assets are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible
assets may be impaired.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
These intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

2.10 Exploration and development expenditure

The Group follows the successful efforts method of accounting for the exploration and development
expenditure.

Exploration expenditure

Costs directly associated with an exploration well, including license acquisition and drilling costs, are
initially capitalised as intangible assets until the results have been evaluated.

If a well does not result in successful discovery of economically recoverable volume of hydrocarbons,
such costs are written off as a dry well. If hydrocarbons are found and, subject to further appraisal
activity which may include the drilling of further wells, are likely to be capable of commercial
development under prevailing economic conditions, the costs continue to be carried as intangible
assets. All such carried costs are reviewed at least once a year to determine whether the reserves found
or appraised remain economically viable. When this is no longer the case, the costs are written off.

Where development plan is commercially viable and approved by the relevant authorities, the related
exploration and evaluation costs are transferred to projects-in-progress in property, plant and
equipment.

Development expenditure

Development expenditure comprises all costs incurred in bringing a field to commercial production
and is capitalised as incurred. The amount capitalised includes attributable interests and other
financing costs incurred on exploration and development before commencement of production.

Upon commencement of production, the exploration and development expenditure initially capitalised
as projects-in-progress are transferred to oil and gas properties, and are depreciated as described in the
accounting policy for property, plant and equipment (note 2.4).

F-25
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.11 Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets and disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities that are expected to be
recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale.
This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for
immediate sale in its present condition.

Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets (or all the assets and liabilities in a
disposal group) are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s applicable accounting policies.
Thereafter, on initial classification as held for sale, the assets or disposal groups are measured at the
lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Any differences are charged to the profit or
loss.

Intangible assets, property, plant and equipment and investment properties once classified as held for
sale are not amortised nor depreciated. In addition, equity accounting of equity-accounted investees
ceases once classified as held for sale.

2.12 Financial instruments

A financial instrument is recognised in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the
Group or the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

(i) Financial assets

Initial recognition

Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and
receivables, held-to-maturity investments or available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate.
The Group and the Company determine the classification of financial assets at initial
recognition.

Financial assets are recognised initially at fair value, normally being the transaction price plus, in
the case of financial assets not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable
transaction costs.

Purchases or sales under a contract whose terms require delivery of financial assets within a
timeframe established by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned (“regular way
purchases”) are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date that the Group and the Company
commit to purchase or sell the financial asset.

Fair value adjustments on shareholder’s loans and advances at initial recognition, if any, are
added to the carrying value of investments in the Company’s financial statements.

Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.12 Financial instruments (continued)

(i) Financial assets (continued)

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Fair value through profit or loss category comprises financial assets that are held for trading,
including derivatives (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a
designated and effective hedging instrument) and financial assets that are specifically designated
into this category upon initial recognition.

Financial assets categorised as fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at
their fair value with gains or losses recognised in the profit or loss. The methods used to measure
fair value are stated in note 2.25.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables category comprises debt instruments that are not quoted in an active
market. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets categorised as loans and receivables
are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (note 2.12(vi)).

Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments category comprises debt instruments that are quoted in an active
market and the Group or the Company has positive intention and ability to hold the assets to
maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (note 2.12(vi)).

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale category comprises investment in equity and debt securities instruments that
are not held for trading.

Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and
whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost. Other financial assets
categorised as available-for-sale are subsequently measured at fair value with unrealised gains or
losses recognised directly in other comprehensive income and accumulated under available-for-
sale reserve in equity until the investment is derecognised or determined to be impaired, at which
time the cumulative gain or loss previously recorded in equity is reclassified to the profit or loss.

All financial assets, except for those measured at fair value through profit or loss, are subject to
review for impairment (see note 2.13(i)).

F-27
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.12 Financial instruments (continued)

(ii) Financial liabilities

Initial recognition

Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or
loans and borrowings (i.e. financial liabilities measured at amortised cost), as appropriate. The
Group and the Company determine the classification of financial liabilities at initial recognition.

Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less, in the case of loans and borrowings,
any directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Fair value through profit or loss category comprises financial liabilities that are derivatives
(except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective
hedging instrument) and financial liabilities that are specifically designated into this category
upon initial recognition.

Financial liabilities categorised as fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at
their fair value with gains or losses recognised in the profit or loss.

Loans and borrowings

Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and borrowings are measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate method (note 2.12(vi)).

Gains and losses are recognised in the profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well
as through the amortisation process.

(iii) Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to
reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when
due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for
transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Financial
guarantee contracts are amortised on a straight-line basis over the contractual period of the debt
instrument. Where the guarantee does not have a specific period, the guarantee will only be
recognised in the profit or loss upon discharge of the guarantee.

When settlement of a financial guarantee contract becomes probable, an estimate of the


obligation is made. If the carrying value of the financial guarantee contract is lower than the
obligation, the carrying value is adjusted to the obligation amount and accounted for as
provision.

F-28
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.12 Financial instruments (continued)

(iv) Derivative financial instruments

The Group and the Company use derivative financial instruments such as interest rate and
foreign currency swaps, forward rate contracts, futures and options, to manage certain exposures
to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices.

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are
carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair
value is negative.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value on derivatives during the year are
recognised in the profit or loss.

An embedded derivative is recognised separately from the host contract and accounted for as a
derivative if, and only if, it is not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the
host contract and the host contract is not categorised as fair value through profit or loss. The host
contract, in the event an embedded derivative is recognised separately, is accounted for in
accordance with the policy applicable to the nature of the host contract.

In general, contracts to sell or purchase non-financial items to meet expected own use
requirements are not accounted for as financial instruments. However, contracts to sell or
purchase commodities that can be net settled or which contain written options are required to be
recognised at fair value, with gains and losses recognised in the profit or loss.

(v) Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement
of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the
recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the assets and
settle the liabilities simultaneously.

(vi) Amortised cost of financial instruments

Amortised cost is computed using the effective interest rate method. This method uses effective
interest rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts or payments through the
expected life of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial instrument.
Amortised cost takes into account any transaction costs and any discount or premium on
settlement.

F-29
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.12 Financial instruments (continued)

(vii) Derecognition of financial instruments

A financial asset is derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have
expired or the Group and the Company have transferred their rights to receive cash flows from
the asset or have assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material
delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement without retaining control of the asset
or substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset. On derecognition of a financial asset, the
difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received (including any
new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been
recognised in equity is recognised in the profit or loss.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or
cancelled or expired. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the
carrying amount of the financial liabilities extinguished or transferred to another party and the
consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised
in the profit or loss.

2.13 Impairment

(i) Financial assets

All financial assets (except for financial assets categorised as fair value through profit or loss,
investments in subsidiaries, investments in associates and investments in joint ventures) are
assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence of
impairment as a result of one or more events having an impact on the estimated future cash
flows of the asset. Losses expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, are not
recognised. For an investment in an equity instrument, a significant or prolonged decline in the
fair value below its cost is an objective evidence of impairment. If any such objective evidence
exists, then the financial asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

An impairment loss in respect of loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments is


recognised in profit or loss and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying
amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original
effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an
allowance account.

An impairment loss in respect of available-for-sale financial assets is recognised in profit or loss


and is measured as the difference between the asset’s acquisition cost (net of any principal
repayment and amortisation) and the asset’s current fair value, less any impairment loss
previously recognised. Where a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset
has been recognised in other comprehensive income, the cumulative loss in other comprehensive
income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss.

F-30
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.13 Impairment (continued)

(i) Financial assets (continued)

An impairment loss in respect of unquoted equity instrument that is carried at cost is recognised
in profit or loss and is measured as the difference between the financial asset’s carrying amount
and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of
return for a similar financial asset.

Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument


classified as available for sale is not reversed through profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument increases and the increase can be
objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or
loss, the impairment loss is reversed, to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not
exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not been recognised at
the date the impairment is reversed. The amount of the reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

(ii) Other assets

The carrying amounts of other assets, other than inventories, amount due from contract
customers, deferred tax assets and non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for
sale, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of
impairment.

If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is
recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs
exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss.

A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows from
continuing use that are largely independent from other assets and groups. An impairment loss
recognised in respect of a cash-generating unit is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the unit and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on
a pro-rata basis.

The recoverable amount is the greater of the asset’s fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-
use. In assessing value-in-use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present
value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent
cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the
asset belongs.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. In respect of


other assets, impairment losses are reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the
asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined,
net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Reversals of impairment losses are credited to the profit or loss in the year in which the reversals
are recognised.

Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.14 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and bank balances, deposits with licensed financial
institutions and highly liquid investments which have an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the
purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are presented net of bank overdrafts
and deposits restricted, if any.

2.15 Construction work-in-progress

Construction work-in-progress represents the gross unbilled amount expected to be collected from
customers for contract work performed to date. It is measured at cost plus profit recognised to date less
progress billings and recognised losses. Cost includes all expenditure related directly to specific
projects and an allocation of fixed and variable overheads incurred in the Group’s contract activities
based on normal operating capacity.

Construction work-in-progress is presented as part of trade and other receivables as amount due from
contract customers in the statement of financial position for all contracts in which costs incurred plus
recognised profits exceed progress billings. If progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised
profits, then the difference is presented as amount due to contract customers which is part of trade and
other payables in the statement of financial position.

2.16 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the
estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Cost of crude oil and condensates includes costs of bringing the inventories to their present location
and condition and is determined on a weighted average basis.

Cost of petroleum products includes crude oil costs, export duty, transportation charges and processing
costs and is determined on a weighted average basis.

Cost of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) and petrochemical products includes raw gas costs and
production overheads and is determined on a weighted average basis.

Cost of material stores and spares consists of the invoiced value from suppliers and import duty
charges and is determined on a weighted average basis.

Cost of developed properties held for sale and properties under development consists of costs
associated with the acquisition of land, all costs that are directly attributable to development activities,
appropriate proportions of common costs attributable to developing the properties, and interest
expenses incurred during the period of active development.

2.17 Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group and the Company have a present
legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting
the expected future net cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time
value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the accretion in the
provision due to the passage of time is recognised as finance cost.

F-32
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.17 Provisions (continued)

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the net expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the reporting date. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to
reflect the current best estimate.

Possible obligations whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of
one or more future events not wholly within the control of the Group, are not recognised in the
financial statements but are disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the possibility of an outflow of
economic resources is considered remote.

In particular, information about provisions that have the most significant effect on the amount
recognised in the financial statements is described in note 24.

2.18 Employee benefits

Short term benefits

Wages and salaries, bonuses and social security contributions are recognised as an expense in the year
in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and the Company.

Defined contribution plans

As required by law, companies in Malaysia make contributions to the state pension scheme, the
Employees Provident Fund (“EPF”).

Some of the Group’s foreign subsidiaries make contributions to their respective countries’ statutory
pension schemes and certain other independently-administered funds which are defined contribution
plans.

Such contributions are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss as incurred.

2.19 Taxation

Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in
the profit or loss except to the extent it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is
recognised in equity.

Current tax
Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using the statutory
tax rates at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided for, using the liability method, on temporary differences at the reporting date
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. In
principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax
assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unabsorbed capital allowances, unused
reinvestment allowances, unused investment tax allowances, unused tax losses and other unused tax
credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the
deductible temporary differences, unabsorbed capital allowances, unused reinvestment allowances,
unused investment tax allowances, unused tax losses and other unused tax credits can be utilised.

F-33
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.19 Taxation (continued)

Deferred tax (continued)

Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of
goodwill and the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business
combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is
realised or the liability is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by
the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax
liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same
taxable entity, or on different tax entities where they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on
a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.
Deferred tax asset is reviewed at each reporting date and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the related tax benefit can be
realised.

2.20 Foreign currency transactions


In preparing the financial statements of individual entities in the Group, transactions in currencies
other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are translated to the functional
currencies at rates of exchange ruling on the transaction dates.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date have been
retranslated to the functional currency at rates ruling on the reporting date.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which are measured at fair
value, are retranslated to the functional currency at the foreign exchange rates ruling at the date when
the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in
foreign currency are not retranslated.
Gains and losses on exchange arising from retranslation are recognised in the profit or loss, except for
differences arising on retranslation of available-for-sale equity instruments, which are recognised in
equity.
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with functional currencies other than Ringgit
Malaysia, are translated into Ringgit Malaysia at the exchange rates approximating those ruling at the
reporting date, except for goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from business combinations
before 1 April 2011 which are treated as assets and liabilities of the acquirer company pursuant to the
adoption of MFRS framework.

The income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the year, which approximates
the exchange rates at the date of the transactions. All resulting exchange differences are taken to the
foreign currency translation reserve within equity.

In the consolidated financial statements, when settlement of a monetary item receivable from or
payable to the Group’s foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign
exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of the net
investment in a foreign operation and are reclassified to other comprehensive income and accumulated
under foreign currency translation reserve in equity. Upon disposal of the investment, the cumulative
exchange differences previously recorded in equity are reclassified to the consolidated profit or loss.

F-34
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.21 Borrowing costs and foreign currency exchange differences relating to projects-in-progress
Borrowing costs which are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of
qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to be prepared for
their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when
expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are
necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing
costs ceases when all activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are
completed.

The capitalisation rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is the
weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to borrowings that are outstanding during the year,
other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of financing a specific qualifying asset, in
which case the actual borrowing cost incurred on that borrowing less any investment income on the
temporary investment of that borrowings, will be capitalised.

Exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings, although regarded as an adjustment to
borrowing costs, are not capitalised but instead recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which
they arise.

2.22 Revenue
Revenue from sale of oil and gas and their related products are recognised in the profit or loss when
the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer.

Revenue from services rendered is recognised in the profit or loss based on actual and estimates of
work done in respect of services rendered for long term project management contracts. Work done is
measured based on internal certification of project activities. Full provision is made for any foreseeable
losses.

Revenue arising from shipping activities are mainly from freight income and charter income. Freight
income and the relevant discharged costs of cargoes loaded onto vessels up to the reporting date are
accrued for in the profit or loss based on percentage of completion method. Charter income is accrued
on time accrual basis.

Revenue from sale of properties is recognised in the profit or loss when the significant risks and
rewards of ownership of the properties have been transferred to the buyer.

Revenue arising from rental income of investment properties is recognised on a straight-line basis over
the term of the lease under the lease arrangement per note 35.

Revenue arising from assets yielding interest is recognised on a time proportion basis that takes into
account the effective yield on the assets.

Revenue arising from investments yielding dividend is recognised when the shareholders’ right to
receive payment is established.

2.23 Financing costs

Financing costs comprise interest payable on borrowings and profit sharing margin on Islamic
Financing Facilities, as well as accretion in provision due to the passage of time.

F-35
Company No. 20076-K

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.23 Financing costs (continued)

All interest and other costs incurred in connection with borrowings are expensed as incurred, other
than that capitalised in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 2.21. The interest
component of finance lease payments is accounted for in accordance with the policy set out in note 2.7.

2.24 Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it
may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with
any of the Group’s other components, and for which discrete financial information is available. An
operating segment’s operating results are reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker,
which in this case is the PETRONAS Executive Committee, to make decision about resources to be
allocated to the segment and to assess its performance.

2.25 Fair value measurements

Fair value of an asset or a liability, except for lease transactions, is determined as the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. The measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or
transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market or in the absence of a principal market,
in the most advantageous market.

(i) Financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments that are actively traded in organised financial markets are
determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business at the end of
reporting date. For financial instruments where there is no active market, fair value is determined
using valuation techniques. Such techniques may include using recent arm’s length market
transactions; reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the
same; discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation models.

(ii) Non-financial assets

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement takes into account a market participant’s
ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it
to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group and the Company use observable
market data as far as possible. Fair value are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy
based on the input used in the valuation technique as follows:

x Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identifiable assets or liabilities.
x Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the
asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
x Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable input).

The Group and the Company recognise transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the
date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfers.

Security

Property, plant and equipment of certain subsidiaries costing RM7,229,797,000 (2013:


RM4,505,502,000) have been pledged as security for loan facilities as set out in note 22 and note 23 to
the financial statements.

Projects-in-progress

Included in additions to projects-in-progress of the Group is finance cost capitalised during the year of
RM1,550,000 (2013: RM8,256,000). The interest rate on borrowings capitalised ranges from 3.85% to
4.10% (2013: 2.42% to 5.59%) per annum.

Restriction of land title

The titles to certain freehold and leasehold land are in the process of being registered in the subsidiaries’
name.

Change in estimates

During the year, the Company revised the estimated future cost of decommissioning of oil and gas
properties. The revision was accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimates resulting in
a decrease in cost of oil and gas properties by RM604,000,000 (refer note 24).

3. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued)

Estimation of oil and gas reserves

Oil and gas reserves are key elements in the Group’s and the Company’s investment decision-making
process. Estimation of oil and gas reserves are conducted using industry recognised method.

The term “reserves” describes the recoverable quantity of oil and gas volumes that are commercially
viable for development given the prevailing economic situation present at the time of estimation.

Reserves estimates are normally presented alongside the range of level of certainties namely P1 (proved
reserves; high level of certainty), P2 (probable reserves; mean level of certainty) and P3 (possible
reserves; low level of certainty). The level of certainties depends on the availability and understanding of
the geological and reservoir data available at the time of estimation and is normally represented in the
form of probability distribution.

The reserves are further subdivided into developed and undeveloped categories. Developed reserves are
reserves expected to be recovered through existing wells and facilities under the operating conditions that
have been designed for. Undeveloped reserves are reserves to be recovered from approved and
sanctioned projects and remain so until the wells are drilled, completed and production commences
which would by then be classified as developed.

Estimation of reserves are reviewed annually. These estimates are inherently imprecise, require the
application of judgements and are subject to regular revision, either upward or downward, based on new
information available such as new geological information gathered from the drilling of additional wells,
observation of long-term reservoir performance under producing conditions and changes in economic
factors, including product prices, contract terms or development plans.

Such revisions will impact the Group’s and the Company’s reported financial position and results which
include:

i) carrying value of oil and gas properties and their corresponding amortisation charges;
ii) carrying value of projects-in-progress;
iii) provisions for decommissioning and restoration; and
iv) carrying value of deferred tax assets/liabilities.

Impairment

As at 31 December 2014, the Group and the Company recognised net impairment losses on certain
property, plant and equipment amounting to RM20,699,000,000 (2013: RM4,289,000,000) and
RM923,000,000 (2013: RM233,000,000) respectively. In arriving at the impairment loss amounts, the
carrying amount of each impaired cash-generating unit is compared with the recoverable amount of the
cash-generating unit.

The Group’s and the Company’s recoverable amount for impaired cash-generating unit of
RM185,524,000,000 (2013: RM38,050,000,000) and RM218,100,000 (2013: RM Nil) respectively were
determined from the value in use calculations, using cash flow projections.

The Group and the Company uses a range of long term assumptions including prices, volumes, margins
and costs based on past performance and management’s expectations of market development. The
projected cash flows were discounted using discount rates ranging between 5.7% and 9.0% (2013: 7.5%
and 10.0%).

Impairment review of goodwill

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to groups of cash-generating units which
represent the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management
purposes.

In assessing whether goodwill has been impaired, the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit
(including goodwill) is compared with the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit. The
recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In the absence of any
information about the fair value of a cash-generating unit, the value in use is deemed to be the
recoverable amount.

Included in goodwill is an amount of RM3,986,000,000 (2013: RM3,986,000,000) arising from the


acquisition of PETRONAS Lubricants Italy S.p.A Group (“PLI Group”). The recoverable amount of PLI
Group unit was based on its value in use and was determined with the assistance of independent valuers.
The value in use was determined by using the discounted cash flow method based on management’s
business plan cash flow projections for 5 financial years from 2015 to 2019, adjusted with an estimated
terminal value. The cash flow assumes a long term growth rate of 3.0% (2013: 3.1%) and is discounted
to present value using discount rate of between 7.5% and 10.1% (2013: 8.4% and 8.7%).

Based on the above, the recoverable amount of the unit of RM4,168,000,000 (2013: RM4,182,000,000)
was determined to be higher than its carrying amount of RM3,773,000,000 (2013: RM3,629,000,000)
and therefore, no impairment loss was recognised.

The above estimates are sensitive in the following areas:

(i) A decrease of 0.5 percentage point in long term growth rate used would have reduced the
recoverable amount by approximately RM202,000,000.

(ii) An increase of 1.0 percentage point in discount rate used would have reduced the recoverable
amount by approximately RM498,000,000.

The value in use of other goodwill is derived from the respective cash-generating units’ business plan
cash flow projections for 5 financial years and extrapolated using long term average growth rate of the
respective industries those units are engaged in. These cash flows are discounted to present value using
discount rate of between 7.8% and 9.0% (2013: 7.4% and 9.0%).

Based on the above, the carrying amount of other goodwill of certain units were determined to be higher
than their recoverable amount and the impairment loss of RM137,000,000 (2013: RM Nil) was
recognised in administrative expenses. The recoverable amount for the impaired goodwill was
RM45,000,000.

In the normal course of business, the Group and the Company enter into derivative financial instruments
to manage their normal business exposures in relation to commodity prices, foreign currency exchange
rates and interest rates, including management of the balance between floating rate and fixed rate debt,
consistent with risk management policies and objectives.

Certain subsidiaries of the Group adopt hedge accounting whereby hedges meeting the criteria for hedge
accounting are classified as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging
instruments is recognised directly in equity until the hedged transaction occurs, while the ineffective
portion is recognised in the profit or loss. As at 31 December 2014, the balance recognised under capital
reserves in equity amounts to RM249,000,000 (2013: RM161,000,000) while the ineffective portion
recognised in profit or loss amounts to RM Nil (2013: loss of RM15,000,000). As these amounts are not
material to the Group, no full disclosure of hedge accounting is presented in the Group’s financial
statements.

No deferred tax has been recognised for the following items:

Unabsorbed capital allowances 1,306 564
Unused tax losses 13,745 21,380

15,191 22,059

The unabsorbed capital allowances, unused tax losses and unused investment tax allowances do not
expire under current tax legislation. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these
items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can
utilise the benefits.

The Group and the Company have unused tax losses carried forward of approximately
RM47,122,000,000 (2013: RM34,166,000,000) and RM22,338,000,000 (2013: RM17,383,000,000)
respectively, which give rise to the recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets above.

The Group also has unused investment tax allowances and unused reinvestment allowances of
approximately RM8,769,000,000 (2013: RM9,239,000,000) and RM1,979,000,000 (2013:

24. OTHER LONG TERM LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS

Group Company
In RM Mil 2013 2014 2013 2014
Provision for decommissioning of:
- oil and gas properties 19,758 19,578 16,780 16,002
- other property, plant and equipment 306 319 - -
Financial guarantees 454 452 526 504

Others 7,984 11,003 6,317 9,142
28,506 31,352 23,623 25,648

Provision for decommissioning of oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment is
recognised when there is an obligation to decommission and remove a facility or an item of property,
plant and equipment and to restore the site on which it is located, and when a reasonable estimate of that
liability can be made.

F-69
Company No. 20076-K

24. OTHER LONG TERM LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS (continued)

The provision recognised is the present value of the estimated future costs determined in accordance
with local conditions and requirements net of, in the case of oil and gas properties, amounts received and
estimated future funds receivable from contractors pursuant to the terms of the various production
sharing contracts that the Company has entered into.

A corresponding asset of an amount equivalent to the provision is also created. This asset is depreciated
in accordance with the policy set out in note 2.4. The increase in the present value of the provision for
the expected costs due to the passage of time is included within finance costs.

Most of these removal events are many years in the future and the precise requirements that will have to
be met when the removal events actually occur are uncertain. Because actual timing and net cash
outflows can differ from estimates due to changes in laws, regulations, public expectations, technology,
prices and conditions, the carrying amounts of provisions, together with the interest rate used in
discounting the cash flows and inflation rate, are regularly reviewed and adjusted to take into account of
such changes. The interest rate and inflation rate used to determine the obligation as at 31 December
2014 was 4.29% (2013: 4.32%) per annum and 2.90% (2013: 3.30%) per annum respectively. Changes
in the expected future costs are reflected in both the provision and the asset.

The movement of provision for decommissioning during the financial years are as follows:

In RM Mil Group Company

Net changes in provision (118) 28
Provision utilised (1) -

Provision utilised (3) -

Translation exchange difference 72 -
At 31 December 2014 19,897 16,002

Net changes in provision include foreign exchange gains or losses arising from retranslation of the
provision and are adjusted against the carrying amount of the corresponding asset accordingly.

During the year, the Company revised its estimated future costs of decommissioning of oil and gas
properties resulting from changes in estimated cash flows. The revision was accounted for prospectively
as a change in accounting estimates resulting in the following:

i. decrease in other long term liabilities and provisions by RM2,380,000,000 (2013:


RM358,000,000);
ii. decrease in cost of property, plant and equipment by RM604,000,000 (2013: RM1,567,000,000);

37. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (continued)

Material litigation

The legal suit brought against the Company by the Kelantan State Government in 2010 in respect of
payment of petroleum proceeds under the terms of the agreement dated 9 May 1975 entered into
between the Kelantan State Government and PETRONAS is still on-going as at the reporting date.
PETRONAS has been advised by its solicitors that PETRONAS has a meritorious defence to the claim.
The Company cannot now estimate with sufficient reliability the ultimate financial obligation, if any,
under this litigation, since it has not gone for full trial yet.

In 2012, certain individuals (“plaintiffs”) filed a legal suit against PETRONAS and the State
Government of Sabah wherein the plaintiffs are seeking a declaration that the agreement dated 14 June
1976 entered into between the State Government of Sabah and PETRONAS is ultra vires and null and
void; and a declaration that the Petroleum Development Act of 1974 is also ultra vires and null and void.
On 15 January 2014, the High Court of Sabah and Sarawak at Kota Kinabalu struck out the plaintiffs’
suit with costs. The plaintiffs have not filed an appeal to the Court of Appeal, thus bringing the suit to an
end.

Other guarantees

Other than those disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements, the Group and the Company had
entered into agreements which may include agreements to provide guarantees to third parties for the
benefit of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures (“Guaranteed Entities”). Such unsecured guarantees
are normally provided in support of the Guaranteed Entities’ normal and on-going business
requirements, consistent with generally acceptable and recognised industry practices. The liability of the
Group and the Company is therefore contingent and would only trigger upon the default of the
Guaranteed Entities’ obligation under the guarantee.

38. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

For the purpose of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related to the Company if the
Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party or exercise significant influence over
the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa. Related parties may be individuals
or other entities.

The Company’s related parties include key management personnel, subsidiaries, associates, joint
ventures as well as the Government of Malaysia and its related entities as the Company is wholly-owned
by the Government of Malaysia.

for the prior years. The Group’s reportable segments, as described below, offer different products and
services and are managed separately because they require different technology and marketing strategies.
The following summary describes the operations in each of the Group’s reportable segments:

ƒ Upstream - activities include operations previously under Exploration and Production i.e. oil and
natural gas exploration, development and production, together with related pipeline and
transportation activities. Beginning 2014, this segment now includes purchase and liquefaction of
natural gas, marketing and trading of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) and sales gas.

ƒ Downstream - activities include the supply and trading, refining, manufacturing, marketing and
transportation of crude oil, petroleum and petrochemical products. Beginning 2014, this segment
now includes gas processing operations and power business.

ƒ Corporate and Others - remains unchanged, comprise primarily logistic and maritime segment,
property segment and central treasury function.

For each of the reportable segment, the Group chief operating decision maker, which in this case is the
PETRONAS Executive Committee, reviews internal management reports at least on a quarterly basis.

There are varying levels of integration between Upstream segment, Downstream Segment and Corporate
and Others Segment. This integration includes transfers of products and services between segments.
Inter-segment pricing is established on a commercial basis.

Performance is measured based on segment profit after tax (“PAT”), as included in the internal
management reports. Segment PAT is used to measure performance as the Executive Committee
believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of the segments.

The basis of measurement of segment performance have changed from Group’s audited consolidated
financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012. Previously, segment
performance was measured based on segment Net Operating Profit After Tax (“NOPAT”) which is
derived from net profit after excluding financing cost, share of profits of associates and joint ventures,
and other non-operating income and expenses. Comparative information with regards to segment
performance have been restated following the change accordingly.

Segment assets are measured based on total assets (including goodwill) of a segment, as included in the
internal management reports and are used to measure the return of assets of each segment.

Financial risk management

As an integrated oil and gas company, the Group and the Company are exposed to various risks that are
particular to its core business of upstream and downstream operations. These risks, which arise in the
normal course of the Group’s and of the Company’s business, comprise credit risk, liquidity risk and
market risk relating to interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and commodity
prices.

The Group has policies and guidelines in place that sets the foundation for a consistent approach towards
establishing an effective financial risk management across the PETRONAS Group.

The Group and the Company’s goal in risk management are to ensure that the management understands,
measures and monitors the various risks that arise in connection with their operations. Policies and
guidelines have been developed to identify, analyse, appraise and monitor the dynamic risks facing the
Group and the Company. Based on this assessment, each business unit adopts appropriate measures to
mitigate these risks in accordance with the business unit’s view of the balance between risk and reward.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the potential exposure of the Group and of the Company to losses in the event of non-
performance by counterparties. The Group and the Company’s exposures to credit risk arise principally
from their receivables from customers, fund and other investments and financial guarantees given to
financial institutions for credit facilities granted to subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. Credit risks
are controlled by individual operating units in line with PETRONAS’ policies and guidelines.

Receivables

The Group and the Company minimise credit risk by entering into contracts with highly credit rated
counterparties. Potential counterparties are subject to credit assessment and approval prior to any
transaction being concluded and existing counterparties are subject to regular reviews, including re-
appraisal and approval of granted limits. The creditworthiness of counterparties is assessed based on an
analysis of all available quantitative and qualitative data regarding business risks and financial standing,
together with the review of any relevant third party and market information. Reports are prepared and
presented to the management that cover the Group’s overall credit exposure against limits and securities,
exposure by segment and overall quality of the portfolio.

Depending on the types of transactions and counterparty creditworthiness, the Group and the Company
further mitigate and limit risks related to credit by requiring collateral or other credit enhancements such
as cash deposits, letter of credit and bank guarantees.

Exposure to losses increases with concentrations of credit risk which may exist when a number of
counterparties are involved in similar activities or operate in the same industry sector or geographical
area, which may result in their ability to meet contractual obligations being impacted by changes in
economic, political or other conditions. The Group’s principal customers with which it conducts business
are located globally and there is no significant concentration of credit risk at reporting date.

Fund and other investments

The Group and the Company are also exposed to counterparty credit risk from financial institutions,
government and corporate counterparties through fund and other investment activities comprising
primarily money market placement and investments in bonds, and equities. These exposures are
managed in accordance with existing policies and guidelines that define the parameters within which the
investment activities shall be undertaken in order to achieve the Group’s investment objective of
preserving capital and generating optimal returns above appropriate benchmarks within allowable risk
parameters.

Investments are only made with approved counterparties who met the appropriate rating and other
relevant criteria, and within approved credit limits, as stipulated in the policies and guidelines. The
treasury function is governed by a counterparty credit risk management framework.

As at the reporting date, the Group and the Company have invested 94% (2013: 95%) and 99% (2013:
99%) of the investments in domestic securities respectively.

The fund and other investments are unsecured, however, in view of the sound credit rating of
counterparties, management does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet its obligation.

Financial guarantees

The Group and the Company provide unsecured financial guarantees to banks in respect of banking
facilities granted to certain subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures (“Group entities”). The Group and
the Company monitor on an ongoing basis, the results of the Group entities and repayments made by the
Group entities.

The maximum exposure to credit risk for the Group and the Company amounted to RM455,378,000
(2013: RM736,960,000) and RM2,291,941,000 (2013: RM2,712,000,000) respectively, which represents
the outstanding banking facilities of the Group entities as at reporting date. As at reporting date, there
was no indication that any Group entities would default on repayment. The fair value of the financial
guarantee recognised is disclosed in note 24.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that suitable sources of funding for the Group’s business activities may not be
available. In managing its liquidity risk, the Group maintains sufficient cash and liquid marketable
assets. The Company’s current credit rating enables it to access banking facilities in excess of current
and immediate future requirements of the Group and of the Company. The Group’s borrowing power is
not limited by its Articles of Association. However, certain covenants included in agreements impose
limited restrictions on some of the debt level of PETRONAS’ subsidiaries.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk or uncertainty arising from change in market prices and their impact on the
performance of the business. The market price changes that the Group and the Company is exposed to,
includes interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other
indices that could adversely affect the value of the Group’s and the Company’s financial assets,
liabilities or expected future cash flows.

F-106
Company No. 20076-K

41. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Interest rate risk

The Group’s and the Company’s investments in fixed rate debt securities and fixed rate borrowings are
exposed to a risk of change in their fair values due to changes in interest rates. The Group’s variable rate
borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in cash flows due to changes in interest rates. Investments in
equity securities and short term receivables and payables are not significantly exposed to interest rate
risk.

All interest rate exposures are monitored and managed proactively in line with PETRONAS’ policies
and guidelines. The Group enters into hedging transactions with respect to interest rate on certain long
term borrowings and other debts where necessary and appropriate, in accordance with policies and
guidelines.

The interest rate profile of the Group’s and the Company’s interest-bearing financial instruments based
on carrying amount as at reporting date is as follows:

Group Company
In RM Mil 2013 2014 2013 2014
Fixed rate instruments
Financial assets 133,620 130,598 117,677 156,873
Financial liabilities (36,475) (32,456) (21,733) (18,958)
97,145 98,142 95,944 137,915

Floating rate instruments


Financial assets 1,753 2,150 31,430 25,983
Financial liabilities (5,376) (4,378) - -
(3,623) (2,228) 31,430 25,983

Since most of the Group’s and the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are fixed rate instruments
measured at amortised cost, a change in interest rate is not expected to have material impact on the
Group’s and the Company’s profit or loss.

Foreign exchange risk

The Group and the Company are exposed to varying levels of foreign exchange risk when they enter into
transactions that are not denominated in the respective companies’ functional currencies and when
foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the reporting date. The main underlying
economic currencies of the Group’s cash flows are Ringgit Malaysia and US Dollars.

The Group and the Company’s foreign exchange management policy are to minimise economic and
significant transactional exposures arising from currency movements. The Group coordinates the
handling of foreign exchange risks centrally typically by matching receipts and payments for the same
currency. For major capital projects, the Group performs assessment of potential foreign exchange risk
exposure at the investment decision phase to determine the appropriate foreign exchange risk
management strategy. Residual net positions are actively managed and monitored against prescribed
policies and control procedures. When deemed necessary and appropriate, the Group will enter into
derivative financial instruments to hedge and minimise its exposures to the foreign currency movements.

Sensitivity analysis for a given market variable provided in this note, discloses the effect on profit or loss
and equity as at 31 December 2014 assuming that a reasonably possible change in the relevant market
variable had occurred at 31 December 2014 and been applied to the risk exposures in existence at that
date to show the effects of reasonably possible changes in price on profit or loss and equity to the next
annual reporting date. Reasonably possible changes in market variables used in the sensitivity analysis
are based on implied volatilities, where available, or historical data for equity and commodity prices and
foreign exchange rates. Reasonably possible changes in interest rates are based on management
judgment and historical experience.

Company No. 20076-K

41. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Foreign exchange risk (continued)

The sensitivity analysis is hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future
performance because the Group’s actual exposure to market prices is constantly changing with changes
in the Group’s portfolio of among others, commodity, debt and foreign currency contracts. Changes in
fair values or cash flows based on a variation in a market variable cannot be extrapolated because the
relationship between the change in market variable and the change in fair value or cash flows may not be
linear. In addition, the effect of a change in a given market variable is calculated independently of any
change in another assumption and mitigating actions that would be taken by the Group. In reality,
changes in one factor may contribute to changes in another, which may magnify or counteract the
sensitivities.

The following table demonstrates the indicative pre-tax effects on the profit or loss and equity of
applying reasonably foreseeable market movements in the following currency exchange rates:

Appreciation in
foreign currency
2013 rate Group Company
In RM Mil % Reserve Profit or loss Reserve Profit or loss
USD 5 1,856 (2,881) - 2,075

AUD 5 - 14 - -

2014
USD 5 3,273 (3,580) - 2,686
MYR 5 - (56) - -

A depreciation in foreign currency rate above would have had equal but opposite effect, on the basis that
all other variables remain constant.

Equity price risk

Equity price risk arises from the Group’s and the Company’s investments in equity securities. The Group
and the Company have Investment Guidelines in place to minimise their exposures on price risk.
Permitted investment in terms of allowable financial instruments, minimum credit rating and markets are
stipulated in the Investment Guidelines. The Group and the Company monitors the equity investments
on a portfolio basis and a performance benchmark is established for each investment portfolio giving
consideration to portfolio objectives and return expectation. All buy and sell decisions are monitored by
the Group Treasury Division.

The Group and the Company also hold equity investment for strategic purposes, that are classified as
available-for-sale financial assets. Reports on the equity portfolio performance are submitted to the
Group’s and the Company’s senior management on a regular basis.

The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to equity price risk based on carrying amounts as at the
reporting date is as follows:

The following table demonstrates the indicative pre-tax effects on the profit or loss and equity of
applying reasonably foreseeable market movements in the following equities:

Foreign equities 15 to 20 766 - - -

2014
Local equities 15 56 74 45 -
Foreign equities 15 to 20 489 - - -

A decrease in price based on average change in index rate above would have had equal but opposite
effect, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.

Commodity price risk

The Group is exposed to changes in crude oil and petroleum products prices which may affect the value
of the Group’s assets, liabilities or expected future cash flows. To mitigate these exposures from a
business perspective, the Group enters into various financial instruments. In effecting these transactions,
the Group operates within policies and procedures designed to ensure that risks are minimised. All
financial instruments positions are marked-to-market by independent risk management department and
reported to management for performance monitoring and risk management purposes on a daily basis.

Since the Group undertakes hedging using commodity derivatives for the majority of its transactions, a
change in commodity price is not likely to result in a significant impact on the Group’s and the
Company’s profit or loss and equity.

Derivatives

The calculation of fair value for derivative financial instruments depends on the type of instruments. The
fair value of interest rate swap agreements are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using
current market interest rates and yield curve over the remaining term of the instrument. The fair value of
forward foreign currency exchange contracts is based on the fair value difference between forward
exchange rates and the contracted rate. The fair value of commodity swap and commodity forward
contracts is based on the fair value difference between market price at the date of measurement and the
contracted price.

Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of
future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the end of the
reporting period.

42. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group, as an essential part of its capital management strategy, is committed to a policy of financial
prudence as outlined in the PETRONAS Group Corporate Financial Policy. The Group’s capital
structure consists of consolidated equity plus debt, defined as the current and long term portions of the
Group’s debt.

The objective of the Group’s capital management is to maintain an optimal capital structure and ensure
availability of funds in order to meet financial obligations, support business growth and maximise
shareholders’ value. The Group monitors and maintains a prudent level of total debt to total assets ratio
so as to enable compliance with all covenants.

There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.

2013

On 1 January 2013, the Group adopted the following pronouncements that have been issued by the

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013


MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

Amendment to MFRS 116 Property, Plant and Equipment (Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle)
Amendment to MFRS 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation (Annual Improvements 2009-2011
Cycle)
Amendment to MFRS 134 Interim Financial Reporting (Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle)

The principal changes in accounting policies and their effects are set out below:

i. MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

MFRS 10 introduces a new single control model to determine which investees should be
consolidated. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns
from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power
over the investee. MFRS 10 replaces the guidance on control and consolidation in MFRS 127
Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and IC Interpretation 112 Consolidation – Special
Purpose Entities.

F-120
Company No. 20076-K

43. ADOPTION OF PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)

2013 (continued)

i. MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Upon adoption of MFRS 10, the Group has consolidated certain existing investees under the new
control model while certain subsidiaries have been deconsolidated from the results of the Group and
accounted for in accordance with other applicable accounting standards.

The change in accounting policy has been made retrospectively and in accordance with the
transitional provision of MFRS 10. The impact of adoption of MFRS 10 is disclosed below.

ii. MFRS 11 Joint Arrangements

MFRS 11 establishes the principles for classification and accounting for joint arrangements and
supersedes MFRS 131 Interests in Joint Ventures. Under MFRS 11, a joint arrangement may be
classified as joint venture or joint operation. Joint venture arise when the joint venturer has rights to
the net assets of the arrangements, while joint operation arise when a joint operator has rights to the
assets and liabilities relating to the arrangement. Interest in joint venture is accounted for using the
equity method whilst interest in joint operation is accounted for using the applicable standards
relating to the underlying assets, liabilities, income and expense items arising from the joint
operations.

Upon adoption of MFRS 11, certain of the Group’s previously equity-accounted jointly controlled
entities are now classified as joint operations or joint ventures. Hence, the Group now accounts
directly its share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses relating to these joint operations,
using applicable MFRSs or equity method.

The change in accounting policy has been made retrospectively and in accordance with the
transitional provision of MFRS 11. The impact of adoption of MFRS 11 is disclosed below.

iii. MFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

MFRS 12 establishes improvement to the disclosure of a reporting entity’s interest in other entities.
Upon adoption of MFRS 12, the Group discloses information about the nature and risks of interests
in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and structured entities and the effects of those interests
on financial position, performance and cash flows.

Since the change only affects disclosure aspects, there is no impact on the Group’s and the
Company’s reported income or net assets.

iv. MFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

MFRS 13 replaces and expands the disclosure requirements about fair value measurements in other
MFRSs, including MFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. MFRS 13 establishes a single
framework for measuring fair value and making disclosures about fair value measurements when
such measurements are required or permitted by other MFRSs. It unifies the definition of fair value
as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Upon adoption of MFRS 13, the
Group and the Company had included additional disclosures about fair value measurement.

F-121
Company No. 20076-K

43. ADOPTION OF PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)

2013 (continued)

iv. MFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement (continued)

In accordance with the transitional provisions of MFRS 13, the Group and the Company has applied
the new fair value measurement guidance prospectively and has not provided any comparative
information for new disclosures. Notwithstanding the above, the change had no significant impact on
the measurements of the Group’s assets and liabilities.

v. Amendment to MFRS 116 Property, Plant and Equipment (Annual Improvements 2009–2011)

Arising from the adoption of Amendment to MFRS 116, certain spare parts and servicing equipment
which meet the definition of property, plant and equipment are reclassified to property, plant and
equipment and accordingly measured as per the Group’s and the Company’s accounting policy on
property, plant and equipment.

Prior to 1 January 2013, stores, spares and others which are not major spare parts or stand-by
equipment are classified as inventories. These items were measured at the lower of cost and net
realisable value and charged to profit or loss upon consumption. Major spare parts and stand-by
equipment have been classified as property, plant and equipment and are measured as per the
Group’s and the Company’s accounting policy on property, plant and equipment.

The adoption of the amendment does not have significant impact on the Group’s reported income or
net assets.

vi. Early adoption of amendments to MFRS 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation – Offsetting
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

Amendments to MFRS 132 clarify on the requirement for offsetting financial assets and liabilities.
The application guidance clarifies that the phrase ‘currently has a legal enforceable right of set-off’
means that right of set-off must not be contingent on a future event and must be legally enforceable
in the normal course of business, in the event of default and in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy
of the entity and all of the counterparties.

Upon adoption of amendments to MFRS 132, the Group has reclassified retrospectively its financial
assets and liabilities according to the new requirements.

The adoption of the amendments to MFRS 132 does not have impact on the Group’s reported net
assets other than as disclosed below.

The following tables summarise the impacts of the adoption of new and revised pronouncements, as
stated above on the Group’s and the Company’s financial position, performance and cash flows.

43. ADOPTION OF PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)

2012

The financial statements for 31 December 2012 represent the Group and the Company’s first application
of MFRS and MFRS 1 First-time Adoption of Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS 1”)
has been applied.
The general principle that should be applied on first-time adoption of MFRS is that accounting standards
in force at the first annual reporting date should be applied retrospectively. However, MFRS 1 contains a
number of exemptions which first-time adopters are permitted to apply. The Group and the Company
have elected:
i. to adopt MFRS 3 Business Combinations retrospectively from 1 October 2009;
ii. to measure certain items of property, plant and equipment at their fair values at 1 April 2011 and
use that fair values as their deemed costs at that date;
iii. to deem cumulative currency translation differences to be zero at 1 April 2011; and
iv. to adopt MFRS 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to goodwill and fair value
adjustments arising in business combinations prospectively from 1 April 2011.

The impact of the above election of MFRS 1 transitional exemptions are set out below:

i. Retrospective application of MFRS 3 Business Combinations

MFRS 1 provides the option to apply MFRS 3 prospectively from the date of transition or
retrospectively from a designated date prior to the date of transition. This provides relief from full
retrospective application of MFRS 3 which would require restatement of all business combinations
prior to the date of transition. Where MFRS 3 is applied retrospectively from a designated date,
MFRS 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements shall be applied from the same date.
The Group has elected to apply MFRS 3 retrospectively from 1 October 2009. As such, all business
combinations on or after 1 October 2009 are accounted for in compliance with MFRS 3 and MFRS
127 which include among others, the following requirements applicable to the Group:
ƒ increase in the Group’s ownership interest in an existing subsidiary is accounted for as equity
transactions with differences between fair value of consideration paid and the Group’s
proportionate share of net assets acquired, recognised directly in equity and therefore previously-
recognised goodwill, if any, shall be taken to retained profits.
ƒ when a business combination is achieved in stages (i.e. step acquisition), the Group remeasures
its previously held non-controlling equity interest in the acquiree at fair value at the acquisition
date, with any resulting gain or loss recognised in the profit or loss; and
The impact from electing the above transitional exemption is summarised as follows:

Company No. 20076-K

43. ADOPTION OF PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)

2012 (continued)

ii. Fair value of property, plant and equipment as deemed cost

The Group has elected to measure certain items of property, plant and equipment at 1 April 2011 at
their fair value and use that fair value as deemed cost at that date. These property, plant and
equipment will continue to be measured using the cost model subsequent to 1 April 2011. The
Group recognises the fair value adjustments directly in retained profits.

The aggregate fair value of these property, plant and equipment was determined to be
RM1,068,000,000 compared to their carrying amount of RM1,694,000,000 at 1 April 2011. The
detailed impact is summarised as follows:

1.4.2011

In RM Mil 31.12.2011

Decrease in deferred tax liabilities (20) (20)
Decrease in non-controlling interests (217) (194)
Decrease in retained profits (389) (348)

iii. Cumulative currency translation differences deemed as zero

The Group has elected to apply the transition exemption to deem the amount of “foreign currency
translation reserve” to be zero at 1 April 2011, other than reserve amount recorded by entities
within the Group which had already adopted the International Financial Reporting Standards prior
to 1 January 2012.

The gain or loss on subsequent disposal of any foreign operations of the Group shall exclude
translation differences that arose before 1 April 2011 and shall include translation differences
subsequent to 1 April 2011.

The impact from electing the above transitional exemption is summarised as follows:

1.4.2011
Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income to
In RM Mil 31.12.2011
Increase in other income 170
Decrease in net movement from exchange differences (170)

43. ADOPTION OF PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)

2012 (continued)

iv. Prospective application of MFRS 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to
goodwill and fair value adjustments arising in business combinations

MFRS 121 requires any goodwill and fair value adjustments to carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities arising from an acquisition of a foreign operation, to be treated as assets and liabilities of
the foreign operation and therefore shall need to be translated using the closing rate at the end of
each reporting period.

MFRS 1 provides the option to apply MFRS 121 to such goodwill and fair value adjustments
prospectively from the date of transition. As such, the carrying amounts of goodwill and fair value
adjustments arising from acquisitions of foreign operations are stated at the previously-translated
carrying amounts and are not subsequently re-translated in the Group’s financial statements.

There is no financial impact to the Group’s statement of financial position and retained profits as a
result of electing the above transitional exemption.

v. Others

In addition to the above impact resulting from electing certain transitional exemptions under MFRS
1, other adjustments and reclassifications to the Group’s statement of financial position and retained
profits are summarised below. These adjustments arose mainly due to changes in revenue
recognition for property development activities from stage of completion to full completion method
for certain subsidiaries within the Group.
