CHANGE OF AUDITOR AND CORRECTION
Tawana has resolved, subject to shareholder approval, to change its auditor at
its next Annual General Meeting which is scheduled in May 2006.
Mr Frank Spencer was a partner of PKF Chartered Accountants from 1 September
2003 to 31 December 2005, when he retired. Immediately prior to joining PKF, Mr
Spencer was a partner of Spencer & Co Chartered Accountants ("Spencer & Co"),
who were previously the auditors of Tawana. Mr Spencer joined PKF as a partner
following the merger of Spencer & Co with PKF on 1 September 2003, and Spencer &
Co ceased its audit activities from that date.
Subsequent to the above merger, whilst Mr Frank Spencer was a partner with PKF,
the audit reports of Tawana for the years ended 31 December 2003 and 31 December
2004, and the audit review reports for Tawana"s half year financial reports
ended 30 June 2003 and 30 June 2004, were signed by PKF. However, this was due
to a misinterpretation of the requirements of the Corporations Act. In
accordance with the Corporations Act, Mr Frank Spencer continued as the auditor
of Tawana from 1 September 2003 in a personal appointment capacity and should
have signed the audit and audit review reports for these periods in his capacity
as auditor of Tawana.
This was corrected by Tawana for the June 2005 half year financial report and
the year end financial report for 31 December 2005
As a consequence of the above, Tawana advises that the "Notice under section
708A(6) of the Corporations Act" released to ASX on 16 December 2006 was
defective as technically the Company has not complied with the provisions of
Chapter 2M.
Notwithstanding this misinterpretation, the audited and audit review accounts of
Tawana for the above mentioned respective periods are otherwise accurate and
comply with all necessary legal and financial reporting requirements.
