The Note Subscription Agreement serves as the primary document for debt instrument issuance in the UAE, establishing the legal framework for raising capital through note issuance. It is typically used when companies or institutions seek to raise medium to long-term funding through debt securities, whether through private placement or public offering. The agreement must comply with UAE Federal Law No. 32 of 2021 (Commercial Companies Law), Central Bank regulations, and where applicable, Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) requirements. The document includes detailed provisions on note terms, subscription process, closing conditions, ongoing obligations, and enforcement mechanisms, while considering UAE-specific requirements such as potential Shariah compliance needs and local market practices. This agreement type is particularly crucial in the UAE market where debt capital markets are continuing to develop and mature.
