Dar Al-Arkan Real Estate Development Company (DAAR) is pleased to announce repayment of its Sukuk II, which is due on Monday 16 July 2012, and amounts to SAR 3.75bn (US$1bn). DAAR transferred the total principal sum to Deutsche Bank (the principal paying agents) on Thursday 12 July 2012 and the Sukuk account holders will receive funds on Monday 16 July 2012. This second Sukuk was part of DAARs Islamic structured debt program (Sukuk program), initiated in 2007. The aim of the program was to provide high quality long term external financing to complement the Companys robust internal cash flow at a time of strong growth in the Saudi real estate market. In the last five years, an extremely challenging period for the international debt markets, DAAR has successfully issued four Sukuk (3 international, one domestic) raising a total of SAR8.4bn (US2.25bn). Of this, 2 Sukuk totaling SAR6bn (US$1.6bn) has been repaid on time and satisfying all obligations, representing 71.4% of DAARs Sukuk program. It is worth mentioning that the Islamic Sukuk Program has aided the Company in the implementation of the Company's various projects over the Kingdom. DAAR provided more than 16,000 residential units which contributed in fulfilling the residential demand in Saudi Arabia.
