International Public Sector Accounting Standard "Financial Reporting under the Cash Basis of Accounting"
developed by the International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board of the International Federation of
Accountants.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the requirements of Law of the Republic of Belarus of July 12,
2013 "On Auditing Activity", the National Rules on Auditing Activities effective in the Republic of Belarus, the
International Standards on Auditing (hereinafter - "ISAs"), Our responsibilities under these standards are
further described in the section "Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Special Purpose Financial
Statements" of this Auditors Report. We are independent of Belcomtehinvest State Enterprise in accordance
with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants of the International Ethics Standards Board for
Accountants ("IESBA Code"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the
IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Special Purpose Financial Statements under the Project
Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the special purpose financial statements are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with the ISAs 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 economic decisions of users taken on basis of these special purpose financial
statements.
Within the frames of the audit held in accordance with the ISAs, we apply professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
* identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the special purpose financial statements whether
due to fraud or error; design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks; 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 that resulting from an error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control system;
* obtain an understanding of the internal control system 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 internal control system;
* evaluate appropriateness of the accounting policies used and reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the Management;
* evaluate presentation of the special purpose financial statements as a whole, their structure and contents,
including disclosures, as well as whether the special purpose financial statements present the underlying
A        transactions and events in a manner that ensures their reliable representation.
We communicate with the Management and those charged with governance regarding, among other matters,
I        the planned scope and timing of the audit as well ;Vr?S iat audit findings, including any significant
deficiencies in the internal control system that we idpNify jo the courd,of the audit.
