INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT To the Management Board and Shareholders of “Telekomunikacije Republike Srpske” a.d., Banja Luka We have audited the accompanying financial statements (pages 3 to 65) of “Telekomunikacije Republike Srpske” a.d., Banja Luka (the “Company”), which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2009, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are 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. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 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 statements 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 entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3.1. Revenue Recognition Income from the sale is presented at invoiced value, less any effective discounts and sales taxes. Income is recognized and recorded concurrently with rendering the contracted services. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate.

3.1.1 Fixed Telephony Income a) Telephone Traffic Income from telephony traffic is billed to the subscribers of the Company, and is recorded at invoiced value, less effective discounts and sales taxes at the moment upon which services have been provided.

b) Telecommunication Subscription The telecommunication subscription to fixed telephony is invoiced on a monthly basis, one month in arrears. The telecommunication subscription includes a tax for the possession of a radio or television signal receiver (referred to as the “RTV fee”) which the Company collects on behalf of the Radio and Television of the Republic of Srpske (“RT RS”) and the Public Radio-Television Service of Bosnia and Herzegovina (“JS BiH”), pursuant to the Law on the Basis of the Public Radio-Television system of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Law on the Radio-Television Service of the Republic of Srpska. In addition, on November 22, 2005, the Company and the other two telecommunication service operators in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BH Telekom d.d., Sarajevo and Hrvatske Telekomunikacije d.d., Mostar, hereinafter referred to as: the “Telekom Operators”), entered into an Agreement on the Collection of the RTV Fees with the three Public Broadcasters in Bosnia and Herzegovina (namely, “RT RS,” “JS BiH” and “Radio Televizija Federacije Bosne i Hercegovine”). Under the terms of the aforecited agreement, the Telekom Operators are to perform the RTV Fees billing of, and collection from, their own fixed telephony users, on behalf of the Public Broadcasters. Pursuant to this agreement, the Public Broadcasters are under an obligation to pay a monthly fee to each Telekom Operator in the amount of 4 percent of the collected income from the RTV Fees. The terms of the aforecited Agreement have been applied commencing as of January 1, 2006 and are effective up to December 31, 2010.

Television subscription fees, except for the fee on the collected income, are not included in the Company’s income. The risk of collection of television subscriptions rests with RT RS and JS BiH. c) New Subscribers Income from the connection of new subscribers to fixed telephony represents income earned on invoiced fees for the connection of new subscribers and installation costs. The bills for new customer connections are recorded in the period in which the user is connected.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.1. Revenue Recognition (Continued)

3.1.1 Fixed Telephony Income (Continued) d) Other Income from Telecommunication Services Other income primarily includes the lease of telephony capacities (i.e., telephone lines, call listings, voice mail and other services). Such income is recognized and recorded in the accounting period during which it arises.

3.1.2. Mobile Telephony Income Mobile telephony income is associated with the income earned from users who use prepaid and postpaid services (i.e., impulses spent, messages, income from subscriptions, mobile telephones sold, etc.). Income is recorded at the invoiced value, less any applicable sales taxes, at the moment in which the services have been provided. Uninvoiced income earned on mobile telephony services provided in the period from the invoice date up to the end of the period of calculation is accrued up to the end of the calculation period. Prepaid services are recognized and recorded at the moment of sale of the prepaid cards, and at the end of the accounting period, whereas any unbilled revenue is deferred.

3.2. Multi-Element Agreements (МЕA)

Multi-element agreements (MEA) are treated as agreements the components of which are independent and to which different accounting treatments are applied, if the following conditions are met: Each agreement element has the value for the beneficiary, independently of other

elements to the agreement: The Company mostly does not sell devices separately from the agreement for other

services; Devices are sold by any other seller (other operators or dealers) and the dealers can

purchase devices directly from the manufacturer; There is secondary market for the aforementioned devices, where there is no

obligation that such market is observable. The fair value of each separate agreement element can be reliably determined (the

relative fair value or residual value). A mobile phone is recognized as an expense, and the income earned on the sale of a mobile phone is credited to income when the sale is realized, i.e., when the device is delivered to the package user. The discounts granted for the sold mobile phones are treated as an expense in the period it was incurred and is recognized when the device is delivered. The revenue from the activation is also stated in the moment of delivery of the appliance up to the amount of discount granted. Other income from rendering services to users as agreed in the multi-element agreements (МЕA), are deferred in the period defined in the agreement.

3.3. Income and Expenses from International Settlements

a) Income and Expenses from International Traffic

The Company has entered into various agreements for international traffic in fixed and mobile telephony. The respective income (expense) and receivables (payables) that have originated under these agreements are presented in the accompanying financial statements, and are associated with the income generated on all incoming and outgoing international calls realized in countries maintaining direct international traffic and accounting. A portion of the income earned or expenses incurred is recorded on the basis of an estimate made in accordance with the internal settlements for realized traffic. The Company recognizes income (receivables) only when it can be measured with reasonable certainty. Where evidence exists that an expense (payables) may be incurred, a full provision is recognized, in the instance in which such an estimate is possible. When it is not possible to estimate the extent of a liability, an appropriate disclosure is made in the financial statements.

b) Income and Expenses from Roaming

Income and expenses arising from roaming with foreign operators are recorded at the values set by the clearing house - Mach, Luxemburg. Income and expenses arising on roaming are recognized in the gross amount based on the traffic realized throughout the period.

3.4. Maintenance and Repairs

The maintenance and repairs of property and equipment are expensed as incurred at the effective amounts. Maintenance and repairs primarily relate to the maintenance of telecommunication equipment, local networks and computer software.

3.5. Operating Leases

Operating leases relate to the rental of internet service, telephone lines, business premises, warehouses and other rental expenses. Such expenses are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income at the moment in which such expenses arise, on an accrual basis, in accordance with the relevant operating lease agreements.

3.6. Foreign Currencies

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies have been restated at the exchange rate in effect at the statement of financial position. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into BAM by applying the exchange rate in effect on the date of each transaction.

3.7. Taxes and Contributions

Current Income Tax

Current income tax relates to the amount payable in accordance with the Income Tax Law, which came into effect as of January 1, 2007. Current income tax is payable at the rate of 10% on the tax base reported in the annual corporate income tax return, being the profit before taxation as reduced by any effects of reconciliation of income and expenses.

The tax regulations effective in the Republic of Srpska do not envisage that any tax losses of the current period be used to recover taxes paid within a specific carry-back period. However, current year losses may be used to reduce or eliminate taxes to be paid in future periods, but only for a duration of no longer than five ensuing years. Deferred Income Taxes Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, for the temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values in the financial statements. The currently-enacted tax rates or the substantively-enacted rates at the statement of financial position date are used to determine the deferred income tax amount. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable, temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, and for the tax effects of income tax losses available for carryforwards, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference and the tax loss carryforwards can be utilized. Indirect Taxes and Contributions Indirect taxes and contributions represent the amounts paid under republic and municipal laws in order to finance various municipal and republic public expenditure requirements. These taxes and contributions are included under Other operating expenses. Value Added Tax Pursuant to the Value Added Tax Law, system for the payment of value added tax (VAT) was introduced on territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, commencing on January 1, 2006, by which previously-applied taxation system for payment of sales tax on products and services was changed.

3.8. Intangible Assets

As of the balance sheet date, intangible assets include the telecommunications licenses, rights to the permanent use of land, acquired computer softwares and other licenses. Intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost of an item of intangible assets comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The telecommunications licenses are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives as delineated under IAS 38 “Intangible Assets.” The rights to the open-ended beneficial use of land relate to the land property that was granted to the Company by the Government of the Republic of Srpska, in accordance with the provisions of the Law on the Opening Balance Sheet in the Process of Privatization of the State-Owned Capital in Enterprises. In accordance with the applicable accounting regulations, the aforementioned land is not subject to amortization.

3.9. Property and Equipment Items of property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost is comprised of the purchase price or expenses incurred in construction, including import duties and non-refundable taxes, and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. Any trade discounts and/or rebates received are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. The cost of the constructed fixed assets represents their costs as of the date of construction or development. Fixed assets represent assets with an expected useful economic life of over one year. Gains on the disposal of fixed assets are credited directly to the statement of comprehensive income within “Other income,” whereas any losses arising upon their disposal are charged to “Other expenses.” Capital improvements, renewals and repairs that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred and are presented as operating expenses.

3.10. Depreciation and Amortization

The depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets are provided at the rates correlating with the estimated useful life, cost and estimated value of the assets on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives of particular classes of property and equipment, as well as intangible assets used in the calculation of depreciation and amortization, and prescribed annual depreciation and amortization rates in use for the year ended December 31, 2009 are as follows:

Estimated Useful Life

(in Years)

3.11. Impairment of Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets At each balance sheet date, the Company’s management reviews the carrying amounts of the Company’s fixed assets in order to determine the indications of impairment loss. If there is any indication that such assets have been impaired, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss. In cases where it is impossible to assess the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company assess the recoverable value of the cash generating unit to the asset belongs. The recoverable value of an asset is the higher of net selling price and value in use. The estimate of the value in use comprises the assessment of future cash inflows and outflows discounted to their present value by applying the pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the estimated recoverable amount of assets (or cash generating unit) is below their carrying value, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized as an expense of the current period under operating expenses, except in case of land and buildings that are not used as investment property which is stated at revalued amount in which case impairment loss is presented as a loss on revaluation of assets.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.11. Impairment of Fixed Assets (Continued) Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable value. However, this is performed so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as income immediately, unless the respective asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which instance, the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase. At December 31, 2009, based on the management’s assessment, there are no indications that the values of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment have suffered impairment.

3.12. Financial Assets Investments are recognized and derecognized on a trade date where the purchase or sale of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories:, ‘held-to-maturity investments’, ‘available-for-sale’ (AFS) financial assets and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. Effective interest method The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period. Income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets designated as at FVTPL. Held to maturity investments Bills of exchange and debentures with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity investments. Held-to-maturity investments are recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest method less impairment, with revenue recognized on an effective yield basis.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.12. Financial assets (Continued) Available for Sale Investments Unlisted shares and listed redeemable notes held by the Company that are traded in an active market are classified as being AFS and are stated at fair value. For such investments a reasonable estimate of fair value is determined by reference to the current market value of another instrument which is substantially the same or is based on the expected cash flows or the underlying net asset base of the investment. Investments whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are carried at cost. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized directly in equity in the investments revaluation reserve with the exception of impairment losses, interest calculated using the effective interest method and foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary assets, which are recognized directly in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the investments revaluation reserve is included in profit or loss for the period. The fair value of AFS monetary assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the balance sheet date. The change in fair value attributable to translation differences that result from a change in amortized cost of the asset is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income, and other changes are recognized in equity. Loans and Receivables Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment. Interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial. Allowance for Impairment Accounts receivable are stated at their nominal value less allowance for impairment of receivables deemed irrecoverable. The provisions are formed for accounts receivable which are past their due date (over 60 days), and such accounts receivable are written off if their uncollectability is certain and documented. The estimate of the amount of uncollectible receivables is based on the historical evidence on the amount of the losses incurred thereof. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held in commercial banks and any other highly-liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.12. Financial assets (Continued) Impairment of Financial Assets Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted. For unlisted shares classified as AFS, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment. For all other financial assets, including redeemable notes classified as AFS and finance lease receivables, objective evidence of impairment could include:

• significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or • default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization.

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Company’s past experience of collecting payments, delays in collecting payments after maturity period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables. For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. With the exception of AFS equity instruments, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through the statement of comprehensive income to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized. In respect of AFS equity securities, impairment losses previously recognized through profit or loss (the statement of comprehensive income) are not reversed through the statement of comprehensive income. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized directly in equity.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.12. Financial assets (Continued) Derecognition of Financial Assets The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire; or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognizes its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay.

3.13. Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities comprise long-term liabilities (long-term borrowings and other long-term liabilities), short-term operating liabilities and other liabilities. Financial liabilities are initially recognized in the amounts of funds received. Once recognized, financial liabilities are measured at amortized value and increased by the amounts of capitalized interest, net of any amount of write-off as approved by a creditor. Financial liabilities were stated at amortized cost by applying the effective interest rate. Interest accrued on financial liabilities is charged to expenses of the respective period and is presented within other short-term liabilities. Financial liabilities cease to be recognized when the Company fulfills the respective obligations, or when the contractual repayment obligation has either been cancelled or has expired.

3.14. Inventories

Inventories are primarily stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The net realizable value is the price at which inventories may be realized throughout the normal course of business, after allowing for the costs of realization. Materials, spare parts and supplies are valued at cost, using the weighted-average methodology. Cost includes the invoiced value, transport and other attributable expenses. Small tools are fully written off when issued into use. Inventories of goods shall be measured at the lower of the average cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories shall comprise all costs of purchase. The inventories mostly relate to the inventories of mobile and fixed line phones purchased with the intention to sell them further to the customers within special sale packages or separately. Provisions that are charged to Other operating expenses are made where appropriate in order to reduce the carrying value of such inventories to the management’s best estimate of their net realizable value. Inventories found to be damaged, or of a substandard quality are written off in full.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.14. Inventories (Continued) Valuation of Mobile Telephones on Stock The sale of mobile phones in the Company is mostly realized through MEAs (multi-element agreements). The sale of mobile phones within MEA is an activity which is executed with a view to stimulate and increase the sale volume of certain services (packages) to the users. The mobile phones are sold at lower prices as a part of the Company’s business strategy. The Company, in return, enters agreements with the package users for a certain periods of time which ensure future economic benefits to the Company. The Company expects to compensate for the cost of a mobile telephone which it sells at lower prices, at the same time stimulating and enhancing sale of different services to the package user. The valuation of inventories is carried at cost whereas the expense (cost of commercial goods sold) is realized when the mobile phone is sold, i.e., delivered to the user based on a multi-element agreement. The sale of mobile phones performed at lower prices is treated as an expense of the accounting period, and is recognized through the statement of comprehensive income as discounts granted in the moment of sale/delivery of a device (Note 10).

3.15. Accrual and Prepayments Accruals are primarily comprised of the computed and unbilled income from international traffic for services performed during the current year, which are billed in the subsequent year due to the long reconciliation period of mutual liabilities and receivables between the international traffic operators. Estimated expenses in international traffic for services received in the current, but invoiced in next accounting period are recorded within accruals.

3.16. Provisions

Provisions are recognized and calculated when the Company has a pending present legal or

contractual obligation as a result of a past event, and when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions are comprised of provisions for litigation filed against the Company, employee benefits, contingent liabilities and provisions for future likely events, based on the guidance and recommendations of the Supreme Office for the Republic of Srpska Sector Auditing. Provisions for litigations represent the Company management’s best estimates of the probable expenditures required to settle such liabilities.

3.17. Deferred Income Deferred income relates to the deferred income arising from grants received as in accordance with the requirements of IAS 20 “Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance”. Movements in deferred income arising on grants received in the period are presented in Note 26.

3.18. Employee Benefits

a) Employee Taxes and Contributions for Social Security

In accordance with local regulations, the Company is obligated to pay contributions to the State Social Security Funds. This obligation involves the payment of contributions on behalf of the employee, by the employer in an amount computed by applying the specific percentages stipulated under the relevant regulations. The Company is also obligated to withhold contributions from gross payments to employees, on behalf of the employees, to the same funds. These contributions, payable on behalf of both the employee and employer are charged to expenses in the period to which they relate. b) Obligations for Jubilee Awards and Retirement Benefits

Pursuant to the Company’s signed collective bargaining agreements (CBAs), the Company is obligated to pay retirement benefits in an amount equal to three monthly salaries earned by the employee in the month prior to his/her retirement, which is not to be less than three times the average gross salary effective in the Company at the time of the employee’s retirement. As the basis for calculation, the Company used the highest monthly salary earned in the last twelve months prior to the employee’s retirement. In addition, the Company provides between one and three average monthly salaries of the Company to be paid out as a jubilee award. The number of monthly salaries that is paid out for the employment jubilee awards corresponds to the total number of the employee’s years of service as presented in the table below:

Total Number of

Number of Service Years Salaries

10 1 20 2 30 3

IAS 19, “Employee Benefits,” prescribes the calculation of the present value of accumulated retirement benefits and jubilee awards. For defined benefit retirement benefit plans and jubilee awards, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. In accordance with the aforementioned, the Company engaged a certified actuary to calculate the present value of the accumulated employee entitlements to retirement benefits and jubilee awards as of December 31, 2009. In computing the said present value of the accumulated rights of employees to retirement benefits and jubilee awards, the certified actuary relied upon the following assumptions: the discount rate of 6% annually, projected salaries’ growth of 5.5% annually, anticipated annual inflation rate of 3.5%, years of service upon regular retirement – 40 for men and 35 for women, projected fluctuation of employees based on historic turnover data dating from previous periods, officially published mortality rates in the environment, as well as other conditions necessary to vest in the right to retirement benefits and jubilee awards.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

3.19. Interim Dividend In the business year 2009, based on the interim financial statements and the May 8, 2009 Decision issued by the Shareholder Assembly, the Company performed the distribution of interim dividends to its shareholders in accordance with the local Company Law (Article 225). The amount of interim dividends paid, was below 50% of the prior year profit, as stipulated by the Company Law.

3.20. Fair Value

It is the policy of the Company to disclose the fair values of those asset and liability components for which published market information is readily available, and for which their fair value is materially different from the recorded amounts. In the Republic of Srpska, there is insufficient market experience, stability and liquidity for the purchase and sale of financial assets or liabilities for which quoted prices on an active market are not presently, readily available. Hence, fair value cannot be reliably determined. The Company’s management assesses its overall risk exposure, and in instances in which it estimates that the value of assets stated in its books may not have been realized, it recognizes a provision. As per the Company’s management, amounts expressed in the financial statements reflect the fair value which is most reliable and useful for the needs of the financial reporting.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The presentation of the financial statements requires the Company’s management make best estimates and reasonable assumptions that influence the: assets and liabilities amounts, the disclosure of contingent liabilities and receivables as of the date of preparation of the financial statements, as well as the income and expenses arising during the accounting period. These estimations and assumptions are based on historical experience and other information available to us, as of the date of preparation of the financial statements. However, actual results may vary from these estimates. Basic assumptions relating to the future events and other significant sources of uncertainties in rendering an estimate as of the balance sheet date, which bears the risk that may lead to significant restatement of the net book value of assets and liabilities in the ensuing financial year, were as follows: Estimated Useful Life of Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets The estimate of useful life of property, equipment and intangible assets is founded on the historical experience with similar assets, as well as foreseen technical advancement and changes in economic and industrial factors. The adequacy of the estimated remaining useful life of fixed assets is analyzed annually, or in cases where there are indications of significant changes in certain assumptions. The Company’s management assesses that the accounting estimates with reference to the estimated useful life of an item of property and equipment, as well as intangible assets, are important accounting estimates, as they include the assumptions on technological advancement in a very innovative industry.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES (Continued)

Estimated Useful Life of Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets (Continued) Additionally, due to the significance of fixed assets in the total Company’s assets, any change of in the aforementioned assumptions may lead to material effects on the Company’s financial position, as well as on its financial performance. As an example, if the Company was to shorten the average useful life by 10%, this would result in additional depreciation and amortization expense for the year 2009 by approximately BAM 9,898,565 (FY2008: BAM 8,267,641). Impairment of Trade Receivables Impairment for doubtful accounts are calculated based on estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The management estimates are based on the aging of account receivables balance and historical write-off experience, customer credit-worthiness and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the impairment loss for doubtful accounts. Тhese involve assumptions about future customer behavior and the resulting future cash collections. The management believes that there is no further impairment provision required in excess of the allowance for doubtful debts already recognized in these financial statements. Provisions Provisions in general are highly judgmental. The Company assesses the probability of an adverse event as a result of a past event to happen and if the probability is evaluated to be more than fifty percent, the Company fully provides for the total amount of the liability. The Company is rather prudent in these assessments, but due to the high level of uncertainty, in some cases the evaluation may not prove to be in line with the eventual outcome of the case. Deferred Tax Assets Deferred tax assets are recognized for all tax losses to the extent to which taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses can be utilized. A significant estimate of the managements is necessary to determine the amount of deferred tax assets which can be recognized, based on their inception periods and the amount of future taxable profits and the tax policy planning strategy. Income and Expenses from International Traffic

The Company has entered into various agreements for international traffic in fixed and mobile telephony. The respective income (expense) and receivables (payables) that have originated under these agreements are presented in the accompanying financial statements, and are associated with the income generated on all incoming and outgoing international calls realized in countries maintaining direct international traffic and accounting. A portion of the income earned or expenses incurred is recorded on the basis of an estimate made in accordance with the internal settlements for realized traffic.

16. LONG-TERM RECEIVABLES AND BORROWINGS (Continued) Long-term receivables as of December 31, 2009 mostly relate to long-term receivables from the Government of the Republic of Srpska in the net amount of BAM 4,730,522. On June 22, 2009, in accordance with the Agreement on the Sale and Purchase of the Company’s Shares, the Company signed an agreement with the RS Government (the Ministry of Finance) on the settlement of liabilities of the RS Government towards the Company in the amount of BAM 5,698,807, based on the payables discharged to Pošte Srpske a.d., Banja Luka in the period of the Company’s privatization (Note 24). Pursuant to the Agreement, the RS Government committed to discharge the said liability in equal annual annuities over the period of 5 years with a 2-year grace period, without any interest accrued. The Company recognized assets and income arising from these assets (Note 6) following the closure of the aforementioned Agreement with the RS Government in 2009, where these long-term receivables represented contingent assets in the prior accounting periods given that the Company did not obtain the final consent of the RS Government (the Ministry concerned). Other long-term receivables stated as of December 31, 2009 relate to accounts receivable rescheduled for more than one year, and mostly relate to amounts due from the Clinical Center of Banja Luka. Namely, on February 12, 2008, the Company entered into a Receivable Rescheduling Agreement with the Banja Luka Clinical Center, as a debtor, and the Health Insurance Fund of the Republic of Srpska, as a guarantor. According to the aforementioned Agreement, the total rescheduled debt of BAM 849,552 is to be settled until December 31, 2011, by paying the installments of BAM 10,000 in the first 12 months and by paying the installments of BAM 30,398 in each of the remaining 24 months. Long-term loans to employees primarily relate to long-term loans approved to employees of the Company for the period of up to 25 years free of interest. Aforementioned loans extended are valued at amortized cost by applying the interest rate at which the Company could obtain long-term borrowings, which corresponds to the effective interest rate (5.5% p.a.). Other long-term placements as of December 31, 2009 in the amount of BAM 5,000,000 relate to assets deposited with Komercijalna banka a.d., Banja Luka extended for the period of 37 months, commencing November 27, 2007 at interest rate of 4% annually. Cash assets are deposited as collateral of the cash receivable to which the bank is entitled based on the Agreement on a long-term foreign currency loan with the related party “MTEL” d.o.o., Podgorica (the Republic of Montenegro) in the amount of EUR 2,500,000. Pursuant to the Agreement on the specially purposed depositing of assets, the bank has the right to collect its receivables from the entity “MTEL” d.o.o., Podgorica, as provided in the Agreement on the long-term loan in foreign currency. Other long-term placements as of December 31, 2009 of BAM 2,107,500 relate to the interest free time deposits with NLB Razvojna Banka a.d., Banja Luka for the period of 10 years, intended for a collateral of the repayment of a loan which NLB Razvojna banka a.d., Banja Luka (as of the signature date of the Agreement – VB banka a.d., Banja Luka) approved to the Company employees in the course of 2002. The Company pays the interest accrued on the aforementioned loans in the name of its employees.

The Company’s country of origin and, at the same time, the center of business operations is Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Company generates most of its income on the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina (88% of total operating income).

38. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Capital Risk Management There is no formal capital risk management framework implemented in the Company. The Management Board of the Company focuses on capital risk on a case basis to mitigate risks and ensure that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance. The capital structure of the Company consists of debt, which includes the borrowings (disclosed in Note 25), cash and cash equivalents and equity, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings. The Management Board of the Company reviews the capital structure on an as needed basis. As a part of this review the Board considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Based on this review, the Company will balance its overall capital structure through the payment of dividends, new permanent investments as well as the issue of new debt or the redemption of existing debt. The Company’s overall strategy remains unchanged. The debt to equity ratios as of the period end were as follows:

In BAM December 31,

Equity (b) 718,147,756 777,656,032

Debt to equity ratio 0.09 - (a) Indebtedness relates to long-term and short-term loans, and current portion of

long-term liabilities. (b) Equity includes share capital, reserves and retained earnings. Significant Accounting Policies

The risk management in the Company is focused on minimizing the potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial position and business operations, contingent on the volatility of the market. The accounting policies adopted by the Company regulate the risk management. The Company does not enter into transactions with derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps or forwards. In addition, in the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company undertook no transactions with financial instruments. Market Risk (a) Currency Risk The Company’s management assesses that the Company is not significantly exposed to currency risk, in transactions in the country and abroad, as it mostly performs its business operations in the local currency (Convertible Mark), as well as in EUR to which the Convertible Mark is indexed linked (EUR 1 = BAM 1.95583). The book value of financial assets and liabilities of the Company expressed in foreign currency as of the reporting date is as follows:

38. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) Market Risk (Continued) (b) Interest Rate Risk The Company is exposed to various risks which through the effects of the fluctuations in the market interest rates which influence their financial position and cash flows. Given that the Company has no interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income is to a great extent independent of interest rate risks. The Company’s risk from the changes in the fair value of the interest rates arises primarily on the long-term borrowings from banks and suppliers. The loans obtained at fluctuation interest rates make the Company’s cash flows susceptible to the risk of changes in fair value of interest rates. In the year ended December 31, 2009, considerable liabilities with reference to borrowings extended at a variable interest rate which was linked to EURIBOR (the liabilities with respect to the loan approved by EBRD and the liabilities arising on the commodity loans, Note 25). Borrowings with variable interest rates are mostly expressed in foreign currency (EUR). The Company analyses its exposure of interest rate risk on a dynamic basis taking into consideration the alternative sources for financing and refinancing, of long-term liabilities in the first place, as these represent the most important interest-bearing position. The Company still does not swap variable for fixed interest rates, and vice versa, but takes steps to securitize loans from banks at more favorable terms.

In case an interest rate on long-term borrowings as of December 31, 2009, exceeded/was less by 0.1 percentage point annually, where other variables remain the same, the Company’s net profit for the year ended December 31, 2009 would be greater/less by the amount of BAM 7,723 (2008 – BAM 6,286), as a result of a lower/higher interest expense. (c) Price Risk The Company is not exposed to risk from changes in prices of securities to a significant extent, as the Company does not have material investments classified in the balance sheet as assets available for sale, or financial assets at fair value where the effects of changes in their fair value are disclosed in the statement of comprehensive income. The Company’s equity investments are not publicly traded. In addition, the Company is exposed to the risk arising from the changes in the prices of services, as it is challenged by intensive competition in the field of mobile telephony and Internet.

38. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) Liquidity Risk On the Company level, managing the liquidity is centralized. The Company handles its assets and liabilities in a manner which ensures that the Company is able to settle its liabilities at any moment. The Company has a sufficient amount of highly liquid assets (cash and cash equivalents), and continuous cash flows from service rendering which enables it to discharge its liabilities when due. The Company does not use financial derivatives. In the order to manage liquidity risk, the Company adopted financial policies which define dispersion on decision-making levels in the course of the acquisition of certain goods/services. This dispersion is ensured by limiting the authority of persons or bodies vested in authority to enact decisions with reference to certain acquisitions. The maturities of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:

38. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) Credit Risk The credit risk is present in cash and cash equivalents, deposits held with banks and financial institutions, receivables from legal entities and individuals and in commitments, and it relates to the risk that the other party will not settle its liabilities to the Company when these fall due, and the Company will sustain a financial loss. The Company is exposed to the credit risk to a limited extent. As collateral against the credit risk, certain measures and activities have been taken of the Company level. In case a user falls behind in settlement of liabilities to the Company, further services to such users are suspended. In addition, the Company does not have material credit risk concentration with reference to receivables, as it has a great number of unrelated customers with individually small amounts of debt. Apart from disabling further use of services, the following procedures of collection are also in place: debt rescheduling, compensations with the legal entities, legal suits, out-of-court settlements and the like. The collection of loans extended to the Company employees is ensured through administrative injunctions, i.e., by decreasing salaries for the adequate amount of installments, whereas the employees leaving the Company enter agreements with reference to the repayment of the outstanding loan portion upon his/her leaving the Company.

• For short term loans and receivables and creditors and borrowings balances, the book value approximates to fair value because of their relative short maturities. The fair value of other financial assets and liabilities carried at amortized cost for disclosures purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Company for similar financial instruments.

39. OPERATING LEASE ARRANGEMENTS

Minimum rent recognized as an expense during the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to BAM 11,709,607 (2008: BAM 9,366,581). The Company's outstanding commitments under cancellable operating leases relating to business premises and land are as follows:

On February 1, 2010, the Company signed an agreement on the purchase of 49% equity interest in the entity Mtel d.o.o., Podgorica (Republic of Montenegro) with the company Olgar B.V. Holland, for the aggregate amount of BAM 19,558,300 (EUR 10,000,000). During the month of February 2010, the Company paid in the total purchase price agreed for the equity interest at issue. On February 16, the Central Registry of the Commercial Court in Podgorica issued a Registration Certificate (founder change) for the entity Mtel d.o.o., Podgorica.

41. TAXATION RISKS

The Republic of Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina currently have several tax laws in effect, as imposed by various governmental agencies. The applicable taxes include: a turnover tax, corporate tax, and payroll (social) taxes, among others. Following their introduction, the regulations governing these taxes were not enforced for substantial periods of time; in contrast to similar legislation in more developed market economies. Moreover, the regulations defining the implementation of these laws are often unclear or non-existent. Hence, few precedents with regard to tax issues have been established in the Republic of Srpska. Often, contrary opinions pertaining to legal interpretations exist both among, and within, governmental ministries and organizations, thusly creating uncertainties and areas of legal contention. Tax declarations, together with other legal compliance matters (e.g., customs and currency control matters) are subject to the review and investigation by a number of authorities that are legally enabled to impose extremely severe fines, penalties and interest charges. The interpretation of tax legislation by tax authorities as applied to the transactions and activity of the Company may not coincide with that of the management. As a result, transactions may be challenged by tax authorities and the Company may be assessed additional taxes, penalties and interest, which can be significant. In accordance with the Law on Tax Authority of the Republic of Srpska, expiration period of the tax liability is five years. This practically means that tax authorities could determine payment of outstanding liabilities in the period of five years from the origination of the liability. The afore-described situation creates tax risks in the Republic of Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina that are substantially more significant than those typically existing in countries with more developed tax systems.

42. CURRENT ECONOMIC SITUATION AND ITS IMPACT ON THE COMPANY

As expected, throughout 2009, like those of majority of other business entities in the Republic of Srpska, the Company’s operations were also under a certain influence of the recent financial crisis and deteriorating economic conditions on the market of the Republic of Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Due to the current global crisis in the market and its weakening effects on domestic economic activities on the local market in the Republic of Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Company will probably operate in a more difficult and uncertain economic environment in 2010 and possibly beyond. The impact of this crisis on the Company’s business operations is currently not possible to fully predict and therefore there is an element of general uncertainty. So far, the ongoing financial crisis has had a limited and indirect impact on the financial position and performance of the Company, primarily due to weaker collection of accounts receivable which further led to increased allowance for impairment of receivables (Notes 10 and 18), as well as a decrease in revenues from international traffic (Note 5). The deteriorating economic situation in the country will probably lead towards a decreased use of telecommunication services on the Republic of Srpska market and its surroundings, which will probably result in decreased business activities in the Company. This may indirectly affect the amounts of expected operating income in 2010.

43. ACQUISITION OF TELEKARD

As disclosed in Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements, on June 26, 2008, the Shareholding Assembly of the Company enacted a Decision to consent to the merger and acquisition of “Telekard, Telefonske usluge” d.o.o., Banja Luka, fully owned by the Company. The registration of the forgoing status change was inscribed in the registers maintained by the Basic Court in Banja Luka on September 30, 2008, whereby the process of merger and acquisition of the aforementioned subsidiary was officially completed. Balance sheets of the Company and Telekard, as of the date of acquisition (September 30, 2008) are presented as follows:
