Read the information below before using this document

Seek professional help with any transaction

Although this term sheet reflects typical and customary market positions in the Middle East for transactions of this nature, every financing should be considered on its own merits. This term sheet should therefore not be taken as definitive legal or financial advice. Certain provisions may or may not apply or be relevant for a particular financing and additional provisions may be appropriate in certain circumstances. It is strongly recommended that both startups and investors seek professional advice in connection with any transaction contemplated by this Term Sheet.

Governing law and jurisdiction

Please also note that this term sheet has been developed for use in common law jurisdictions, such as Abu Dhabi Global Market, Dubai International Financial Centre, the Cayman Islands, BVI and Singapore, among others. If the investee company is domiciled in Delaware, the parties may consider using the NVCA form of documents (tailored for the region).
