^

^ AUV AUV Enterprises Limited Annual Report 2006 The estimated external debts (that is, excluding amounts owed to directors and the Company's majority shareholder) of the Company and its subsidiary at the time of the appointment were $1,445,000. An offer was made to the administrators by Nikiticorp Limited (Nikiticorp) which formed the basis of Deeds of Company Arrangement (Initial DOCAs) that were presented to and approved by meetings of creditors of the Company and AMO on 23 January 2006. The Initial DOCAs and were then executed by the respective administrators on 27 February 2006.

The Initial DOCAs provided for the following terms:

• Nikiticorp would pay to the administrators sufficient money to pay all debts of the Company and AMO to the unrelated creditors;

• Nikiticorp would assume all debts owing to related creditors; • Nikiticorp would pay all costs and expenses of the administrators;

• Nikiticorp would acquire all the shares in AMO; • AMO would transfer to the Company its interests in mining tenements; • the Company would entered into an agreement with AMO whereby it would be afford exclusive

exploration and mining rights for tenements it held; • a royalty would be payable to the Company by AMO of $1 per gram of sapphire produced,

payable monthly. An advance payment of royalties of $300,000 was due on settlement.

After the execution of the Initial DOCAs, the management of the Company and AMO was passed back to the Board of Directors and the administration period ended. The administrators still maintained a mentoring role in respect of the Initial DOCAs. If its terms are no fulfilled the administrators could convene a meeting of creditors to consider a variation of termination of the arrangements.

Subsequently a revised offer was made by Nikiticorp (Revised DOCAs) to the administrators. The Revised DOCAs was approved by creditors of the Company and AMO, and subsequently executed by the administrators. The Revised DOCA replaced the Initial DOCAs in entirety, and the key terms are:

• Nikiticorp agreed to pay by installments the amount owing to creditors covered by the Revised DOCAs and debts and expenses of the administrators. The installment payment dates were:

$500,000 due 1 August 2006 $500,000 due 1 November 2006 $500,000 due 1 February 2007 Balance owing due 1 May 2007

• Nikiticorp would not acquire the shareholding of AMO, and it would remain wholly owned by the Company.

The first installment due under the Revised DOCA was not paid. The administrators allowed Nikiticorp additional time to make the payment. The Company and AMO therefore remained subject to the terms of the Revised DOCA.

However it wasn't until 24 August 2012 that a DOCA was wholly effectuated and the company released from the control of the Deed Administrators and handed back to the Company and its Directors.

To achieve the finalisation of the DOCA during the Financial year under review the company held on 3 August 2012 a General Meeting of shareholders where the following proposals were put to shareholders and all resolutions passed at such meeting including changing the company's name to AUV Enterprises Ltd:-

a) AUV be authorized to allot and issue the "Proponent's First Shares" as described in the Deed of Reconstruction, being:

Sales

During the financial year, Nikiticorp Limited (Niltiticorp), the Company's majority shareholder, acquired 2,208,326 carats at the average selling price of $0.90 per carat. The balance of 90,000 carats was sold to local buyers at negotiated prices.

Costs of Production

During the period of operation, mining techniques were refined so as to maximize output of sapphire from the lowest possible amount of sapphire bearing material processed. As a result the average grade gradually increased from around 5 carats/tonne to 23 carats/tonne. As costs of production were held reasonably constant during this period, the average cost per carat was reduced.

Overhead costs, including central management, were scaled back during the financial year to a level commensurate with the size of the business.

Review of Operations

As a result of the inability to achieve profitable operations and combined with the appointment of administrators as discussed above, the Board is conducting a review of the feasibility of continuing mining operations.

During the period since March 2006, all production staff other than a core team of 2 and all head office staff, other than an Executive Director, have either been stood down or put on a part time basis. The Company's mining equipment has been put into storage either on the Company's property or at its mine site.

6. Financial Position

The net assets of the Consolidated Entity have decreased by $2,537,000 to $10,227,000 during the year ended 30 June 2005. This decreased was as a result of the reported net loss for the year.

The Consolidated Entity increased its investment in plant and equipment, mine development and exploration by $1,000,000 during the financial year as part of the process of establishing its mining operations at Sapphire, Queensland.

The Company's cash flow deficiency was being funded by a facility provided by Nikiticorp (Standby Loan Facility), of $2,000,000. The Standby Loan Facility was frozen at the date of appointment of administrators.

On 28 October 2005, immediately prior to the appointment of the administrators, the Company and Nikiticorp entered into a new loan facility agreement (Secured Loan Facility) with the Company. The Secured Loan Facility provided that Nikiticorp would advance monies as required to the Company for its working capital requirements, up to an amount of $300,000. Interest is payable on the loan at the rate of 10% per annum payable monthly. A fixed and floating charge was taken over the assets of the Company and AMO. Repayments of the facility have been made via shipments of sapphire stock at an average price of $0.90/carat.

As at 30 June 2006 this facility was undrawn and an amount of $403,000 owed by Nikiticorp or its subsidiaries to the Company or AMO, being for sapphire stock and expenses to be reimbursed.

13. Remuneration Report

This section presents the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of the Company, and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration.

Remuneration Policy

The remuneration policy of the Company has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and a variable (at risk) component. The Board of the Company believes the remuneration policy is appropriate for the current stage of development of the Company.

The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior executives of the Consolidated Entity is as follows:

• The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed by the Board. All executives receive an agreed mix of fixed salary (which is based on factors such as experience and level of responsibilities), superannuation, fringe benefits and an annual cash performance incentive. The Company's Remuneration Committee will review and make recommendations to the Board in respect of executive packages on an annual basis. Reference will be made to the Consolidated Entity's performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

• The performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed annually with each executive. Performance criteria include factors relating to the responsibilities of each position as well as company-wide factors such as the forecast growth of the Consolidated Entity's profits. All bonuses are linked to predetermined performance criteria. The Board may, however, exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and can recommend changes to the committee's recommendations. The policy is designed to attract the highest caliber of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.

^ AUV AUV Enterprises Limited r%%^ W Annual Report 2006

• The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits.

• All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. There are no share or options schemes as part of directors' or executive remuneration.

• The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The remuneration committee determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability.

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Consolidated Entity. However, to align directors' interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company.

Where non-executive directors provide additional services to the Company, this must be approved in advance by the remuneration committee chair.

Performance Based Remuneration

As part of each executive director and executive's remuneration package there is a performance-based component, which is paid on achievement of key performance indicators ("KPIs"). The program seeks to align goals of directors and executives with that of the Company and its shareholders. The KPIs are reviewed annually by the Board in consultation with executives.

The measures are tailored to the areas each executive has a level of control over. The KPIs target areas the Board believes hold greater potential for group expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial as well as short- and long-term goals. The level set for each KPI is based on budgeted figures for the group and respective industry standards.

Performance in relation to the KPIs is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the number and deemed difficulty of the KPIs achieved. Following the assessment, the KPIs are reviewed by the remuneration committee in light of the desired and actual outcomes, and their efficiency is assessed in relation to the group's goals and shareholder wealth, before the KPIs are set for the following year.

Company Performance, Stiaretioider Wealtli and Directors' and Executives' Remuneration

KPIs for the 2006 year were not met and as a result no performance payments were paid or are payable.

Details of Remuneration for the Year Ended 30 June 2006

The remuneration for each director and each of the executive officers of the Consolidated Entity receiving the highest remuneration during the year is set out in the tables below. Due to the size of the Consolidated Entity, only 4 staff were considered to be executive officers.

In addition there is a range of industry specific environmental laws which apply to all mining operations. The environmental laws and regulations generally address the potential impact on the Consolidated Entity's activities in relation to water and air quality, noise, surface disturbance and the impact upon flora and fauna.

The Consolidated Entity has an internal monitoring and reporting procedure in the event of any environmental events which breach or potentially breach any regulation or law.

As at the date of this report an environmental bond of $76,764 had not been put in place with the Queensland Government's Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). As a result the EPA have suspended the Company's activities on its mining leases.

Pursuant to Article 103 of its Constitution, the Company insures and indemnifies its current and former directors and officers, against liabilities to another person (other than the Company or a related body corporate) that may arise from their position as directors and officers of the Company and its controlled entities, except where the liability arises out of conduct involving lack of good faith.

Each Director and Secretary named in the Directors and Secretary section of this report and any past director or secretary, has entered into a Deed of Indemnity with the Company on these terms. No indemnity has been provided to the Company's auditor.

16. Insurance Premiums

During or since the financial year the Company has paid an insurance premium in respect of a contract insuring against liability of Directors and Officers in accordance with the Company's Constitution and the Corporations Act 2001.

The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the amount of the premium and the nature of the liability insured against. Each director of the Company has paid the insurance premium in respect of cover which may apply in relation to liabilities of the type referred to in Section 199B of the Corporations Act 2001.

17. Non-audit Services

The Board is satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the year is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The directors are satisfied that the services disclosed below did not compromise the external auditor's independence for the following reasons:

• all non-audit services are reviewed and approved by the Board prior to commencement to ensure they do not adversely affect the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and

• the nature of the services provided do not compromise the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia and CPA Australia's Professional Statement F1: Professional Independence.

Fees of $10,200 for non-audit services that were paid or are payable to the external auditors during the year ended 30 June 2006 were for the preparation of information in response to queries raised by the Australian Securities & Investment Commission.

18. Auditor's Independence Declaration

The auditor's independence declaration for the year ended 30 June 2006 has been received and is included on page 15 of this Annual Report.

19. Proceedings on Behalf of Company

Other than as set out below, no person has applied for leave of Court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or any part of those proceedings.

During August and September 2005, the Australia Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) requested information from the Company as to its financial affairs. The Company responded to these enquiries within timeframes stipulated by ASIC.

AUV Enterprises Limited Annual Report 2006

^ AUV

Corporate Governance Statement

The Board of AUV Enterprises Limited (the "Company") determines the corporate governance arrangements for the Company and its controlled entities ("Consolidated Entity"). The Board believes that effective, proactive corporate governance enhances company performance and benefits all stakeholders. Governance practices are not considered as a fixed set of policies but evolve over time depending on the stage of the Company's development.

1. Corporate Governance Framework

The Board has established a framework for corporate governance of the Company's activities. This statement provides a summary of that framework in comparison to the principles and recommendations presented in the document entitled Principles and Best Practice Recommendations, prepared by the ASX's Corporate Governance Council ("CGC"). Where the Company has not followed a recommendation for the whole of the financial year this has been identified.

In many instances, where a recommendation has not been followed in all respects, the principles of the recommendation have generally been followed, however, it may not have been documented and published on the Company's web site. During the financial year the Board's function was suspended for the period of administration from 31^' October 2005 to 27* February 2006. Since the administration period ended, the Board has been conducting a review of its activities, including its corporate governance policies.

2 Management Oversight by the Board

The Board has developed an authority delegation matrix, which provides a framework for the split of authority and duties between the Board and management. The matrix provides the authority required for a range of activities, including financial transactions, the engagement of consultants and advisors and the release of price sensitive information to the market. The authority delegation matrix is one component of a formal Board Charter, and the remaining components are under review by the Board.

3. Board Structure

Board Members

The Board of AUV currently consists of non-executive directors that bring together the requisite skills to effectively oversee the management of the Company. The table below summarises the status of each director and the date of their appointment as director. Details of directors' skills and experience are contained in the Directors' Report.

Director Role Nature of Board IVlembership

Date of Appointment

Robert Whitton Chairman & Non-Executive Director

Independent 2 August 2012

Anthony Damianos Non-Executive Director Non-independent 6 April 2004 Peter Dykes Non-executive Director Independent 2 August 2012

The current Board structure does comply with CGC's recommendations, as the majority of directors are independent. The Board are reviewing the current structure as part of a general review of the Company's activities.

-̂ - Al IM AUV Enterprises Limited ' r^kJ W Annual Report 2006

Nomination Committee

Nominations to the Board can be brought forward by any director, which would then be considered by the full Board. This approach does not comply with the CGC recommendations, as there is not a separate nomination committee of directors. In view of the size of the Company and its Board there is not considered any efficiency in having a separate nomination committee structure.

Details of the director's attendances at Board and special committee meetings are contained in the Directors' Report,

Independence Criteria

The Company has adopted the following criteria to determine director independence. A director is considered independent if the director:

• is not a current member of the management team, nor been employed as part of management during the past three years;

• is not a substantial shareholder (directly or indirectly) of the Company holding more than 5% of the Company's voting shares;

• within the last three years, has not been a principal of a material professional advisor or consultant to any company within the Consolidated Entity, or an employee materially associated with the service provided; Material is defined as being billings to the Consolidated Entity that exceed 10% of the advisor's revenue or as determined by the Board based on other factors;

• is not a material supplier or customer of the Company. A material supplier is defined as being one who provides services or goods to the group that are more than 10% of the Consolidated Entity's costs. A material customer is defined as being one whose purchases from the Consolidated Entity amount to more that 10% of its revenue;

• has no other material contractual relationship with the Consolidated Entity, other than as a director of the Company;

• has not served on the Board for a period which could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with the director's ability to act in the best interests of the Company;

• is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could materially interfere with the director's ability to act in the best interests of the Company.

4. Promote ethical and responsible decision making

The Board is currently reviewing a formal code of conduct, including a securities trading policy, for the directors and senior management, to comply with CGC recommendations. An informal agreement between directors is in place that any director wishing to buy or sell the securities of the Company should provide notice to other directors prior to the transaction occurring.

^ AUV AUV Enterprises Limited #-%%# W Annual Report 2006

5. Safeguard integrity in financial reporting

An Audit Committee has been established. At present the Audit Committee currently consists solely of iVIr. Dykes, a non-executive director. It is noted that such committee did not exist in the 2006 financial year. A formal charter of the Audit Committee is currently being reviewed by the Board.

6. Make Timely and Balanced Disclosure

The Company has a policy in respect of the review and approval by directors for all "price sensitive" market releases to the ASX. This policy formed part of the authority delegation matrix referred to earlier and the timing and content of releases is closely scrutinised by Board members. The Board is currently reviewing written policies and procedures.

7. Respect the Rights of Shareholders

The Company has an informal policy in respect of providing communication to shareholders regularly and effectively. The Board is currently reviewing a formal disclosure policy.

The external auditor attends the annua! general meetings of the Company and will be available to respond to questions about the conduct of the audit and content of the independent audit report.

8. Recognise and Manage Risk

The Company's authority delegation matrix provides a decision-making framework, which allows risks to be identified and managed. The Board as a whole considers issues of risk and financial management and given the current size of the Company a separate risk management committee or internal audit function is not warranted.

Australis does not have a single specific risk management policy, but addresses financial and operating risks through individual policies and procedures covering financial, contract management, safety and environmental activities of the Company. The Company engages an insurance brokering firm as part of its annual assessment of the coverage for insured assets and risks.

The integrity of the Consolidated Entity's financial reporting relies upon a sound system of risk management and control. Accordingly, to ensure management accountability, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are required to provide a statement in writing to the Board that the financial reports of the Consolidated Entity are based upon a sound risk management policy.

The Board believes it has identified and understood the key risk areas of the Company and is managing them effectively.

9. Encourage Enhanced Performance

The Company's remuneration policies are set out in the Director's Report. A review of performance of directors and senior executives did not occur during the 2006 year.

The role of Chairman undertakes the induction of new directors to the Board and ensures they have an understanding of:

• the Company's financial, strategic, operational and risk management position;

• their rights, duties and responsibilities; • the role of the Board committees.

10. Remunerate Fairly and Responsibly

AUV currently established a remuneration committee, which comprises Mr. Whitton solely. The Board is currently reviewing a written charter.

The Company did not have a committee during the 2006 financial year.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Year Ended 30 June 2006

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report covers AUV Enterprises Limited and controlled entities (the Consolidated Entity), and AUV Enterprises Limited as an individual parent entity (the Company or Parent Entity). The Company is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

The financial report of the Consolidated Entity and the Parent Entity comply with all Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) in their entirety.

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Consolidated Entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

Basis of Preparation

First-time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards

The Consolidated Entity, and the Parent Entity have prepared financial statements in accordance with the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) from 1 July 2005.

In accordance with the requirements of AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards, adjustments to the parent entity and consolidated entity accounts resulting from the introduction of AIFRS have been applied retrospectively to 2005 comparative figures excluding cases where optional exemptions available under AASB 1 have been applied. These consolidated accounts are the first financial statements of the Consolidated Entity to be prepared in accordance with Australian equivalents to IFRS.

The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all years presented. The Consolidated and Parent Entities have however elected to adopt the exemptions available under AASB 1 relating to AASB 137: Provision, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, refer below for further details on accounting policy.

Reconciliations of the transition from previous Australian GAAP to AIFRS have been included in Note 2 to this report.

Reporting Basis and Conventions

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs and does not take into account changing money values or, except where stated, current valuations of non-current assets. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

. . v . „ . . . . . . . . ^ A U V Annual Report 2006

Accounting Policies

(a) Going Concern Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis notwithstanding that the company incurred an operating loss after income tax of $2,537,000 and net assets of $10,228,000 as at 30 June 2006 and that the company incurred significant losses and generated negative cash flows from operations and subsequent over a number of years. The company has executed a deed of arrangement and creditors trust with its creditors, which extinguished all its liabilities as at August 2012 and removed itself from administration.

The company is currently in the final process of recapitalizing its operations. Accordingly, the Directors' are of the opinion that the company will be able to meets its current trade and other payables, as well as repay its debts as and when they fall due. Therefore, the Directors are of the opinion that the financial statements be prepared on a going concern basis.

The company has re-entered the Sapphire industry and is currently reviewing a number of further opportunities in such industry.

In the event that the company is unable to realize its object of obtaining profitable opportunities or complete any further capital raisings, it will be required to realize its assets and extinguish its liabilities in a manner other than in the normal course of business such as voluntary administration. The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the company not be able to continue as a going concern.

(b) Principles of consolidation

A controlled entity is any entity controlled by the Company. Control exists where the Company has the capacity to dominate the decision-making in relation to the financial and operating policies of another entity so that the other entity operates with the Company to achieve the objectives of the Company. Details of the controlled entities are contained in Note 13.

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the Consolidated Entity, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation.

Where a controlled entity has entered (or left) the Consolidated Entity during the year its operating results have been included (or excluded) from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.

(c) Income tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except

- ^

^ AUV AUV Enterprises Limited Annual Report 2006

where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation, and the anticipation that the Consolidated Entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.

AUV Enterprises Limited and its wholly owned subsidiary, Australis Mining Operations Old Pty Limited, have been consolidated for tax purposes under the Tax Consolidation System from 6 April 2004. AUV Enterprises Limited is responsible for recognising the current and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the consolidated group. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the taxable profit of the tax consolidated group.

(d) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity.

(e) Property, plant and equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Property

Freehold land and buildings are shown at their fair value, being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm's length transaction. It is the policy of the Consolidated Entity to have an independent valuation every three years, with annual appraisals being made by the directors.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on a fair value basis, except for office equipment, which is measured on the cost basis.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows, which will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have not been discounted to present values in determining the recoverable amount. An annual appraisal of the fair value is made by the directors.

The cost of plant constructed by the consolidated entity includes the cost of all materials used in construction, direct labour on the project and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure. Output produced during commissioning of plant has been valued at cost and deducted from the costs of construction.

AUV Enterprises Limited rmt^ W Annual Report 2006

Revaluation

Increments arising from the valuation of non-current assets have been taken to Asset Revaluation Reserve. Decrements have been offset against previous increments relating to the same class of assets and the balance taken to the Statement of Financial Performance.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets, but excluding freehold land, are depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful lives to the Company commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Properties held for investment purposes are not subject to a depreciation charge. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable asset are:

Class of fixed asset Depreciation rate

Buildings 25%

Plant and equipment 10% - 25%

(f) Leases

Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership, are transferred to the entities within the Consolidated Entity, are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and a liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Leased assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the Consolidated Entity will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. Lease incentives received under operating leases are recognised as a liability.

(g) Investments

Non-current investments are recognised at cost. The carrying amount of investments is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of these investments. The recoverable amount is assessed from the underlying net assets for non-listed companies. The expected net cash flows from investments have been discounted to their present value in determining the recoverable amounts.

(h) Mine Development & Exploration

Exploration Expenditure

Exploration and evaluation expenditure is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of

interest. The expenditure is carried forward in the financial statements, in respect of areas of

interest for which the rights of tenure are current and where:

• such costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or, alternatively, its sale; or

AUVEn,e,^:esUmM, ^ A U V Annual Report 2006

• where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage which permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

Mine Development Expenditure

Mine development expenditure represents the acquisition costs and/or accumulation of exploration, evaluation and development expenditure in respect of areas of interest in which mining has commenced. When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.

When further development expenditure is incurred in respect of a mine property after the commencement of production, such expenditure is carried forward as part of Development Expenditure only when substantial future economic benefits are thereby established, otherwise such expenditure is classified as part of the cost of production.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.

Provision for rehabilitation

Rehabilitation, restoration and decommissioning obligations associated with the retirement or disposal of mine site assets to be recognised when the disturbance and obligation occurs. The provision is measured at the present value of the future expenditure and a corresponding asset is also recognised. The capitalised cost is amortised over the life of the project and a provision is increased as further disturbance occurs which creates a further obligation to rehabilitate. Associated discounting of the liability unwinds throughout the life of the provision; with this unwind being recognised as an interest expense.

In determining the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and future legislation. Accordingly the costs have been determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within one year of abandoning the site.

(i) Foreign currency transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions during the year are converted to Australian currency at the rates of exchange applicable at the dates of the transactions. Amounts receivable and payable in foreign currencies at balance date are converted at the rates of exchange ruling at that date.

(j) Employee benefits

Provisions are made for the Company's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year together with benefits arising from wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave which will be settled after one year, have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled plus related on-costs. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

Contributions are made by the Consolidated Entity to an employee superannuation fund and are charged as expenses when incurred.

Annual Report 2006

(k) Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers.

Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.

Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established.

Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers.

(I) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.

(m) Rounding of Amounts

The parent entity has applied the relief available to it under ASIC Class Order 98/100 and, accordingly, amounts in the financial report and directors' report have been rounded off to the nearest $1,000.

(n) Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

^ AU¥

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Year Ended 30 June 2006

The compensation structure for key management personnel, is based on a number of factors, including length of service, particular experience of the individual concerned, and overall performance of the Company. The contracts for service between the Company and key management personnel are on a continuing basis the terms of which are not expected to change in the immediate future. Upon retirement key management personnel are paid employee benefit entitlements accrued to date of retirement.

The Company may terminate the contracts without cause by providing 1 month written notice or making payment in lieu of notice based on the individual's annual salary component together with any applicable redundancy payment as recommended by State-based legislation. Termination payments are generally not payable on resignation or dismissal for serious misconduct. In the instance of serious misconduct the Company can terminate employment at any time.

The group seeks to emphasize payment for results through a cash bonus scheme. The scheme provides for payment of a cash bonus upon achievement of key performance indicators ("KPIs") such as return on equity: Bonuses were not paid or provided for in the 2006 financial year as the KPIs were not met. The objective of the reward schemes is to both reinforce the short and long-term goals of the Company and to provide a common interest between management and shareholders.

Report on the Financial Report We have audited the accompanying financial report of AUV Enterprises Limited (the company) and AUV Enterprises Limited and Controlled Entities (the consolidated entity), which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2006, income statement, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accompanying policies, other explanatory notes and the directors' declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year's end or from time to time during the financial year.

We have also audited the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors' report. As permitted by the Corporations Regulations 2001, the company has disclosed information about the remuneration of Directors and executives ("remuneration disclosures"), required by Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures, under the heading "Remuneration Report" in the Directors' report and not in the financial report.

Director's Responsibility for the Financial Report and the Remuneration Report contained in the Directors' Report The Directors of AUV Enterprises Limited are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Directors of the company are also responsible for the remuneration report contained in the Directors' Report in accordance with sSOOA of the Corporations Act 2001.

Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement and that the remuneration report in the Directors' Report is in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors' report.
