professional judgment, were of most significance in our

thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on
these matters.

the other information and we will not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements,
our responsibility is to read the other information
identified above when it becomes available and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the financial statements or our
knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to
be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude
that there is a material misstatement of this other
information; we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.

and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring
the accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of
the financial statements that give a true and fair view
and are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error.

7. In preparing the financial statements, management
is responsible for assessing the Company ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,
matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless management
either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

8. That Board of Directors are responsible for
overseeing the company financial reporting process.

Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Statements

9. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements as a whole are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error, and to issue an auditor''s report that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered
material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.

10. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we
exercise professional judgement and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also :

a) Identify and assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures
responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or
the override of internal control.

b) Obtain an understanding of internal controls
relevant to the audit in order to design audit

procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.
Under section 143(3)(I) of the Act, we are also
responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the
Company has adequate internal financial controls
system in place and the operating effectiveness of such
controls.

c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.

d) Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s
use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a
material uncertainty exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the
Company ability to continue as a going concern. If we
conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the
related disclosures in the financial statements or, if
such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the
Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and
content of the financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements
represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.

11. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the
financial statements that, individually or in aggregate,
makes it probable that the economic decisions of a
reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial
statements may be influenced. We consider
quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i)
planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating
the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of
any identified misstatements in the financial
statements.

12. We communicate with those charged with
governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant
audit findings that we identify during our audit.

13. We also provide those charged with governance
with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to

communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.
