I would like to welcome our new shareholders and wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the support you have given as our Company begins implementing its expansion and growth plans The ASX listing of Spectur on the 1st of August was a huge milestone for our business, an event which was shared by Spectur’s key employees. I believe that Spectur is well placed to continue to go from strength to strength, delivering results for its shareholders. The Company’s potential is significant. We operate in a large and growing Video Surveillance-as-a- Service market, whose market size in the solar sector is expected to grow globally to over US$2.37 billion by 2020. We intend to capitalize on this trend and expect our Company to emerge as a leader within this designated market niche. The prospectus broadly outlined our strategic goals: these goals which in the short term are to grow our market share by expanding into all states within Australia. To that objective: • We have further strengthened the team in our Melbourne office (Sunshine West) with the hiring of a new Sales Co-ordinator. This will assist in fully exploiting sales opportunities across all markets. • Our premises at Sunshine West will be the headquarters for Eastern States operations, including our R&D centre. We are building a strong team to help us achieve our goals and in the year ahead we expect this momentum to continue. • We are seeking to acquire or partner with synergistic technology and operating businesses that can assist with growth and profitability. We will also be looking at adding brands to our portfolio that target market segments very specifically. • We will be targeting overseas markets in the medium term, which will require that we have fully researched the opportunity and tailored our offering accordingly. The groundwork that we are currently doing in terms of establishing systems and sales and marketing strategies is invaluable and will assist us in a more rapid and successful implementation. • • The construction and civil engineering industries offer huge opportunities for growth and we are robustly pursuing these markets. There is also a wealth of opportunities in other market sectors that we are pursuing including, critical infrastructure, mining and local government. In addition to security and surveillance, Spectur’s Cloud Management platform and newly released hardware allows us to offer innovative and cost effective solutions to a wide range of industries tailored to individual customer needs. These solutions combine our existing camera technology with additional built in and plug in devices. For example, we are working with Metro Rail in Victoria to help them monitor bridge strikes. This takes advantage of the 3-axis accelerometer that is built into our new hardware. We will continue to commercialise new products taking advantage of market opportunities as they arise and we intend to diversify our offering into new areas of activity. I would like to welcome our two new non-executive directors, Andrew Hagen and Stephen Bodeker, to the Spectur Board. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our Managing Director, Peter Holton for his vision and tireless commitment towards realizing Spectur’s potential as one of the leading providers of Solar, cloud based camera technology. 4 SPECTUR LIMITED Chairman’s Review (continued) The mixture of dedication and talents provides us with an excellent forum to plan and execute our forward growth strategies. On behalf of the board, I am pleased with our progress so far, and I am confident that Spectur’s significant growth momentum will continue in the year ahead. The board looks forward to your continued support. Sincerely, Richard Wilkins Executive Chairman 5 SPECTUR LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT The Board of Directors of Spectur Limited present their report on Spectur Limited (“Company” or “Spectur”) for the year ended 30 June 2017.

The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by Section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for KMP who are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company. Key Management Personnel The KMP of the Company during or since the end of the financial year were as follows: Directors Mr Charles Richard Wallace Wilkins Mr Peter William Holton Mr Stephen Paul Bodeker Mr Andrew Mark Hagen Mr Japheth Dela Torre Position Executive Chairman Managing Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Period of Employment (to present) 22 October 2009* 9 March 2017* 9 June 2017 9 June 2017 22 March 2017 to 9 June 2017 *Mr Wilkins and Mr Holton provided consulting and management services on a consulting basis prior to their full time employment starting on 1 July 2017. Executives Dr Nicholas Le Marshall Ms Suzie Jayne Foreman Mr Japheth Dela Torre Position Technology and Development Manager Joint Company Secretary Joint Company Secretary Period of Employment (to present) 1 July 2017** 9 June 2017 30 January 2017 to 28 July 2017 **Dr Nicholas Le Marshall provided technical and development services to the Company prior to his full time employment starting on 1 July 2017. Remuneration Policy The Company’s remuneration policy for its KMP has been developed by the Board taking into account the size of the Company, the size of the management team, the nature and stage of development of the Company’s current operations, and market conditions and comparable salary levels for companies of a similar size and operating in similar sectors. In addition to considering the above general factors, the Board has also placed emphasis on the following specific issues in determining the remuneration policy for KMP: - Operating results of new branches; - - Lodgement of associated patents of the Company’s new technologies; and The listing of the Company’s securities. Remuneration Committee Due to the current size of the Company, the Board did not implement a Remuneration Committee during the year, as such the board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors, the Managing Director and the executive team. Remuneration Structure In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive Director and executive remuneration is separate and distinct. Non-executive Director Remuneration The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain Directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders. The ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive Directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. The Constitution states that the Company may pay to the Non-Executive Directors a maximum total amount of director's fees, determined by the Company in general meeting, or until so determined, as the Directors resolve. The Company intends to put to shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting an aggregate remuneration amount to approve. 11 SPECTUR LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (continued) Non-executive Director Remuneration (continued) Non-Executive Directors’ fees are presently set at $35,000 (2016: nil) per annum plus superannuation. These fees cover main board activities only. Non-Executive Directors may receive additional remuneration for other services provided to the Company. The Non-Executive salary remuneration is effective from the date of a Non-Executive Director’s appointment. Options have also been issued to Non-Executive Directors in line with Company policy to attract suitable candidates to the position. Executive Remuneration The Company’s remuneration policy is to provide a fixed remuneration component and a short and long term performance based component. The Board believes that this remuneration policy is appropriate given the considerations discussed in the section above and is appropriate in aligning executives’ objectives with shareholder and business objectives. Fixed Remuneration Fixed remuneration consists of base salaries, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds and other non- cash benefits. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of company and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration externally and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. Performance Based Remuneration – Short Term Incentive The board intends to implement a system whereby Executives may be entitled to annual short term incentives upon achieving various key performance indicators (“KPI’s”), as set by the Board. Having regard to the operations of the Company, the Board may determine these KPI’s, including measures such as successful commercialisation of the Company’s products and services, (e.g. specified levels of commercial sales of the solar camera systems within budgeted timeframes and costs), development activities, production and sales levels, operational cash flows, corporate activities (e.g. recruitment of key personnel) and business development activities (e.g. joint ventures and business development). Prior to the end of each financial year, the Board assesses performance against these criteria. A short term incentive plan has not been implemented to date, however this will be deliberated by the board, and key targets and proportion of salary at risk, and or bonuses, will be communicated if and once approved and established. No bonuses were paid or are payable in relation to the 2017 financial year. Performance Based Remuneration – Long Term Incentive Company Options The Board has previously chosen to issue Options (where appropriate) to some executives and employees as a key component of the incentive portion of their remuneration, in order to attract and retain the services of the executives and to provide an incentive linked to the performance of the Company. The Board may grant Options to executives with exercise prices at and/or above market share price (at the time of agreement). As such, Incentive Options granted to executives will generally only be of benefit if the executives perform to the level whereby the value of the Company increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the Incentive Options granted. Other than service-based vesting conditions, there are no additional performance criteria on the Incentive Options granted to executives, as given the speculative nature of the Company’s activities and the small management team responsible for its running, it is considered the performance of the executives and the performance and value of the Company are closely related. The Company prohibits executives entering into arrangements to limit their exposure to Incentive Options granted as part of their remuneration package. Employee Incentive Plan Spectur has implemented an Employee Incentive Plan during the year. Under the Plan, Spectur may grant options to subscribe for Shares or performance rights entitling the holder to be issued Shares on terms and conditions set by the Board at its discretion.

The Company does not currently have a policy with respect to the payment of dividends and returns of capital however this will be reviewed on an annual basis. Therefore, there was no relationship between the Board’s policy for determining, or in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP and dividends paid and returns of capital by the Company during the current and previous four financial years. The Company did not have listed securities during the year and no consideration was given to appreciation of the Company’s shares when setting remuneration. The Company issued Incentive Options to KMP and has implemented an Employee Incentive Plan during the year which will generally be of value if the Company’s shares appreciate over time. However, it should be noted that all Director Options have an ASX imposed 24 month escrow (sale) restriction period. This is in line with the Company policy that Company Options are issued as a long term incentive for Directors.

Significant accounting estimates and judgements (d) The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Impairment of intangibles with indefinite useful lives: The Company determines whether intangibles with indefinite useful lives are impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which the intangibles with indefinite useful lives are allocated. 26 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Significant accounting estimates and judgements (continued) (d) Share-based payment transactions: The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using internal valuation models in conjunction with the market price of the share-based payments. Going concern (e) Notwithstanding the fact that as at 30 June 2017, the Company has accumulated losses of $1,504,250, the Directors are of the opinion that the Company will continue as a going concern for the following reasons: • Subsequent to the year end, the Company completed its IPO and was admitted to the Official List of ASX on 28 July 2017. The Company raised $4,550,000 (before costs) through the issue of 22,500,000 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.20 each and 5,500,000 unlisted options at $0.01 each. The funds raised will be used to meet the increase production and sales requirements, geographical expansion, research and development and ongoing working capital requirements of the Company. The Company’s ongoing expansion in the East coast of Australia is expected to increase the sales revenue of the Company. The Directors will monitor the Company’s revenue and cash flows and do not anticipate the need to raise further equity in 2018 year. However, any requirement for future capital raising will be reviewed on an ongoing basis. • • Segment reporting (f) Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the board of Directors of Spectur. (g) Both the functional and presentation currency of Spectur is Australian dollars. Foreign currency translation Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance date. All exchange differences in the financial report are taken to profit or loss with the exception of differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken directly to equity until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognised in profit or loss. Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also recognised in equity. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Revenue recognition (h) Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Sale of goods Revenue is recognised when the goods are delivered and titles have passed, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied: • • the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold; the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. • • • 27 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Revenue recognition (continued) (h) Interest income Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that assets’ net carrying amount on initial recognition. Leases (i) Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Income tax (j) The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date. Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except: • • when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except: • • when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. 28 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Income tax (continued) (j) Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. (k) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except: Other taxes • • when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except: • • when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill (l) The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or Company’s of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. 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. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease). 29 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill (continued) (l) An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. Cash and cash equivalents (m) Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand, net of bank overdrafts. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above. Trade and other receivables (n) Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within periods ranging from 15 to 30 days. Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Company in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Company. The impairment allowance is set equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Where receivables are short-term discounting is not applied in determining the allowance. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. (o) Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Inventories Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition is accounted for as follows: • • Raw materials – purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis; and Finished goods and work-in-progress – cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Property, plant and equipment (p) Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation. 30 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (p) Depreciation is calculated on diminishing value basis using the following rates: Property, plant and equipment (continued) Motor vehicle Plant equipment Office equipment Camera equipment 25% 10% to 50% 10% to 50% 33.33% The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end. Impairment The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, with recoverable amount being estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and 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, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to approximate fair value. An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount. For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the cost of sales line item. However, because land and buildings are measured at revalued amounts, impairment losses on land and buildings are treated as a revaluation decrement. Derecognition and disposal An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised. (q) Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired separately Intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with any changes in these accounting estimates being accounted for on a prospective basis. Internally generated intangible assets – research and development expenditure Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Where no internally- generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period as incurred. An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated: • • • • • • The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; The ability to use or sell the intangible asset; How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Subsequent to initial recognition, internally- generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets acquired separately. 31 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (q) The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation: Intangible assets (continued) Patents Trademarks 8 years following grant of patent 10 years following grant of trademark Trade and other payables (r) Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months. Borrowings (s) Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates. The fair value of the liability portion of a convertible note is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non- convertible note. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the note. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option. This is recognised and included in shareholders’ equity, net of income tax effects. Borrowings are removed from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Provisions (t) Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement. Provisions are measured at the present value or management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as an interest expense. Share-based payment transactions (u) Equity settled transactions The Company provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Company in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions). 32 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Share-based payment transactions (continued) (u) Equity settled transactions (continued) The Company has the following plan in place: • the Employee Incentive Plan (EIP), which provides benefits to Directors and senior executives and is governed by the Employee Incentive Plan Rules. The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by internal valuation using a Black-Scholes model. In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Company (market conditions) if applicable. The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting period). The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each balance date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The statement of comprehensive income charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition. If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification. If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph. The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share. Cash settled transactions: The Company also provides benefits to employees in the form of cash-settled share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for cash, the amounts of which are determined by reference to movements in the price of the shares of Company. The cost of cash-settled transactions is measured initially at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes formula taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. This fair value is expensed over the period until vesting with recognition of a corresponding liability. The liability is remeasured to fair value at each balance date up to and including the settlement date with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a new business are not included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration. Dividends (v) Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period. 33 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Earnings per share (w) Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for: • • • costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends; the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

On 26 April 2017, the Board of Directors approved the resolution to amend the Tranche 3 vesting condition. a. 10,000,000 Performance Rights to Mr. Charles Richard Wilkins, and b. 10,000,000 Performance Rights to Mr. Peter Holton, The performance rights have the following vesting conditions (which were updated on 26 April 2017): (i) Tranche 1 – 33 1/3% - The total Revenue for the year ended 30 June 2018 being at least $1.75 million; (ii) Tranche 2 – 33 1/3% - The total Revenue for the year ended 30 June 2019 being at least $3.5 million; and (iii) Tranche 3 – 33 1/3% - The total Revenue for the year ended 30 June 2020 being at least $7 million. Currently, there are no reasonable grounds in which to assess the likelihood of the various performance milestones being met. The Company assessed that there is a high level of uncertainty whether the performance milestones referred to above will be met due to the difficulty in the assessment of the potential for future short term revenue as this is largely dependent on the Company successfully expanding its operations. The Company does not consider to have a reasonable basis to reliably forecast future revenue at the reporting date. Therefore at the reporting date, the Company does not consider that it is probable that the performance milestones will be met (this being the best available estimate) and as such no value has been assigned to the performance rights as at the reporting date. The Company, in accordance with AASB 2 Share based payments, continuously reassess the probability of each performance milestone being achieved up until the expiry of the performance rights. 37 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 8: LOSS PER SHARE Basic and diluted loss per share Basic loss per share (cents per share) Loss Losses used in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is as follows: Losses 30 June 2017 Cents per share 30 June 2016 Cents per share (3.31) (0.60) 30 June 2017 $ 30 June 2016 $ (426,502) (66,971) Weighted average number of ordinary shares The weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is as follows: Weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purpose of basic loss per share NOTE 9: CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS 30 June 2017 Number 30 June 2016 Number 12,866,362 11,157,250 Reconciliation to the Statement of Cash Flows: For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at bank, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the customer base being large and unrelated. Accordingly, the Directors believe that there is no requirement for a credit provision nor an allowance for impairment. IPO prepayments represents amounts paid and payable as part of the IPO process. The IPO was completed subsequent to the year end and these were transferred to capital raising fees upon issuance of the shares.

The main risks arising from the Company's financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. This note presents information about the Company's exposure to each of the above risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. Other than as disclosed, there have been no significant changes since the previous financial year to the exposure or management of these risks. The Company manages its exposure to key financial risks in accordance with the Company's risk management policy. Key financial risks are identified and reviewed annually and policies are revised as required. The overall objective of the Company's risk management policy is to recognise and manage risks that affect the Company and to provide a stable financial platform to enable the Company to operate efficiently. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions to mitigate the financial risks. In addition, the Company's policy is that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken for the purposes of making speculative gains. As the Company's operations change, the Directors will review this policy periodically going forward. The Directors have overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Directors review and approve policies for managing the Company's financial risks as summarised below. Categories of financial instruments Financial assets Cash on hand and in bank Trade and other receivables Total Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total 30 June 2017 $ 30 June 2016 $ 136,206 593,351 729,557 471,020 - 471,020 - 223,407 223,407 205,805 13,480 219,285 b) Capital risk management The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Company’s overall strategy remains unchanged from prior years. The capital structure of the Company consists of debt, cash and cash equivalents and equity, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings (accumulated losses). Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and general administrative outgoings. Gearing levels are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis in line with its target gearing ratio, the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. c) Credit Risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Company uses publicly available financial information and its own trading record to rate its major customers. The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Company of counterparties having similar characteristics. Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. This arises principally from cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. 42 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 19: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) c) Credit Risk (continued) There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company. The carrying amount of the Company's financial assets represents the maximum credit risk exposure, as represented below: Cash on hand and in bank Trade and other receivables Total 30 June 2017 $ 30 June 2016 $ 136,206 593,351 729,557 - 223,407 223,407 Trade and other receivables are comprised primarily of trade receivables, R&D and GST refunds due. Where possible the Company trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Company's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. d) Interest Rate Risk The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the bank overdrafts with floating interest rate. These financial assets with variable rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. All other financial assets and liabilities, in the form of receivables and payables are non-interest bearing. At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Company's interest-bearing financial instruments was: Interest-bearing financial instruments Bank balances Bank overdrafts Total 30 June 2017 $ 30 June 2016 $ 25,000 - 25,000 - (2,325) (2,325) The Company currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage interest rate risk. Interest rate sensitivity A sensitivity of 0.1% (10 basis points) has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short term and long term interest rates. A 1% (100 basis points) movement in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) equity and profit and loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2017. 30 June 2017 Bank balances 30 June 2016 Bank overdraft Profit or loss 100bp Increase 100bp Decrease 250 (23) (250) 23 43 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 19: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) e) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Board's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that the Company will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments, are provided below. There are no netting arrangements in respect of financial liabilities. 30 June 2017 Financial Liabilities Bank overdraft Trade and other payables Loans payable Total 30 June 2016 Financial Liabilities Bank overdraft Trade and other payables Loans payable Total f) Foreign Exchange Risk ≤6 Months $ 6-12 Months $ 1-5 Years $ ≥5 Years $ Total $ - 471,020 - 471,020 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 471,020 - 471,020 ≤6 Months $ 6-12 Months $ 1-5 Years $ ≥5 Years $ Total $ 2,325 203,480 13,480 219,285 - - - - - - - - - - - - 2,325 203,480 13,480 219,285 The Company's has an exposure to foreign exchange rates given that the Company purchases materials and parts from overseas suppliers as part of the manufacturing process of the solar camera systems. A fluctuation in foreign exchange rates may affect the cost base of the solar camera systems. The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary liabilities as at the reporting date expressed in Australian dollars are as follows: 30 June 2017 $ 30 June 2016 $ US dollar denominated balances - 3,467 Foreign currency sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analysis below details the Company’s sensitivity to an increase/decrease in the Australian Dollar against the United States Dollar. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items. A 100 basis point is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to management and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. At reporting date, if foreign exchange rates had been 100 basis points higher or lower and all other variables held constant, the Company’s loss will increase/decrease by $Nil (2016: $347); and net assets will increase/decrease by $Nil (2016: $347). There were no outstanding foreign currency denominated liabilities as at 30 June 2017. The Company’s sensitivity to foreign exchange rates has not changed significantly from prior year. g) Fair values The net fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying value. The methods for estimating fair value are outlined in the relevant notes to the financial statements. NOTE 20: CONTINGENT LIABILITIES The Company had no contingent liabilities as at the reporting date. 44 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 21: SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS a) Recognised Share-based Payment Expense From time to time, the Company provides Incentive Options to officers, employees, consultants and other key advisors as part of remuneration and incentive arrangements. The number of options granted, and the terms of the options granted are determined by the Board. Shareholder approval is sought where required. During the past two years, the following equity-settled share-based payments have been recognised: 30 June 2017 $ 30 June 2016 $ Expense arising from equity-settled share-based payment transactions Net share based payment expense/(income) recognised in the profit or loss 28,500 28,500 - - b) Summary of Options Granted as Share-based Payments The following table illustrates the number and weighted average exercise prices (WAEP) of Incentive Options granted as share-based payments at the beginning and end of the financial year: Outstanding at beginning of year Granted by the Company during the year Granted by the Company during the year Cancelled during the year Cancelled during the year Outstanding at end of year e) Option Pricing Model 30 June 2017 30 June 2016 Number WAEP Number WAEP 200,000 2,850,000 50,000 (50,000) (200,000) $1.00 0.20 (1.50) (1.50) (1.00) 200,000 $1.00 - - - - - - - - 2,850,000 $0.20 200,000 $1.00 The fair value of the equity-settled share options granted is estimated as at the date of grant using an internal valuation methodology taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. In conjunction to the internal valuation model, the Board gave consideration to the market price for options being issued at arm’s length during and since the end of the reporting date. Options granted as share-based payments to consultants and employees were issued for nil consideration. However, these options were allocated a market value of $0.01 each, consistent with the option offer under the Prospectus issued on 19 June 2017. NOTE 22: RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES The Group’s related parties include Key Management and others as described below. Transactions with Key Management Personnel The aggregate compensation made to Directors and other Key Management Personnel of the Company is set out below: Short-term employee benefits Share-based payment Total 30 June 2017 $ 546,834 10,500 557,334 30 June 2016 $ 352,114 - 352,114 45 SPECTUR LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 22: RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES (continued) Other transactions with Key Management Personnel No member of Key Management Personnel appointed during the period received a payment as part of his or her consideration for agreeing to hold the position.

The going concern basis of accounting was a key audit matter due to the potential for a material uncertainty relating to this matter. Our procedures included, but were not limited to: We noted that subsequent to year end completed its IPO and was admitted to the official list of the ASX, raising $4,550,000. We agreed the cash receipts to supporting documentation and assessed the reasonableness of forecast expenditure. Recognition and Measurement – Revenue Refer to Note 1(h) This is a key audit matter as revenue is the most significant account balance in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. We focussed on this matter due to the size and nature of the transactions. Our procedures included, but were not limited to: We performed substantive testing to ensure that revenue had been recognised accurately. We performed sales cut off testing to ensure revenue had been recorded in the correct period. We performed testing on unearned revenue to ensure that the balance was accurate. Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report 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. Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 49 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is 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 Australian Auditing Standards 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 this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:  Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, 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.  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.  Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.  Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ 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’s 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 report 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.  Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors 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. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. 50 Report on the remuneration report Opinion on the remuneration report We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 11 to 19 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2017. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Spectur Limited for the year ended 30 June 2017 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Responsibilities The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
