STATEMENT OF MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES Management has prepared and is responsible for the special purpose financial statements and related notes of the Second National Water Supply and Sanitation Project and Additional Financing (the "Project") financed by the International Development Association Credit No. 43970 AZ, International Bank for Reconstruction and Development Loan No. 7518 AZ, International Bank for Reconstruction and Development Loan No. 8381 AZ and the Government of Azerbaijan. They have been prepared in accordance with the basis of accounting described in Note 2 of the accompanying special purpose financial statements. The Project maintains internal accounting control systems and related policies and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded, that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorisation and properly recorded, and that accounting records may be relied upon for the preparation of financial statements and other financial information. The system contains self-monitoring mechanisms that allow management to be reasonably confident that controls, as well as the Project's administrative procedures and internal reporting requirements operate effectively. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, including the possibility of human error or the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statements preparation.

We have also audited the Project's compliance with the conditions of the relevant Credit and Loan Agreements, the World Bank guidelines and Laws of the Azerbaijan Republic. Management's responsibility for the financial statements 2. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these special purpose financial statements in accordance with the basis of accounting described in Note 2 of the accompanying special purpose financial statements. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal controls 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 3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these special purpose financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing ("ISA") applicable to the audit of financial statements and to compliance auditing, with special reference to ISA 800 "The Independent Auditor's Report on Special Purpose Audit Engagements" and to the relevant Credit Agreement, the World Bank guidelines and Laws of the Azerbaijan Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the special purpose financial statements are free from material misstatement and about whether the Project has complied with the conditions of the relevant agreements, guidelines, laws and regulations. 4. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' 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 aud it 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. 5. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. ',. ~ 4

ACCOUNTING POLICIES These special purpose financial statements cover the part of the project implemented by the State Amelioration and Water Management OJSC. Transactions related to the part of the project implemented by the State Amelioration and Water Management Agency of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic have been excluded. a) Basis of Accounting These special purpose financial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Public Sector Accounting Standard ("IPSAS") Financial Reporting under the Cash Basis of Accounting issued by the International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board ("IPSASB"), an independent standard-setting body within the International Federation of Accountants ("IFAC") and incorporate the following principal accounting policies, which have been consistently followed in all material respects and comply with the "Guidelines: Annual Financial Reporting and Auditing for World Bank - Financed Activities" issued by the World Bank's Financial Management Sector Board. These Special Purpose Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. Project financing is recognised as a source of project funds when the cash is received. Project expenditure is recognised as a use of project funds when payment is made. b) Period of accounts These special purpose financial statements cover the year ended 31 December 2014. c) Transactions and balances in foreign currencies The Project is domiciled in the Republic of Azerbaijan where the local currency is the Azerbaijani mana! ("AZN"). The Project's transactions are funded and expended in United States dollars and AZN. In accordance with the requirements of the World Bank, these special purpose financial statements are presented in United States dollars ("US dollar", "USD" or "US$"), which is the reporting currency of the Project. Transactions in other currencies are treated as transactions in foreign currencies. Cash receipts and payments arising from transactions in a foreign currency are recorded in the Project's reporting currency by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of receipt and payment. Cash balances held in a foreign currency are reported using the closing rate, which is the spot exchange rate at the reporting date. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates are not cash receipts and payments. However, the effect of exchange rate changes on cash held in a foreign currency is reported in the statement of sources and uses of funds and other statements in order to reconcile cash at the beginning and the end of the period. These amounts are presented separately from cash receipts and payments and include the differences, if any, had those cash receipts and payments and balances been reported at end-of-period exchange rates. At 31 December 2014 the official AZN/USD exchange rate set by the Central Bank of Azerbaijan ("CBAR") was 0.7844 (2013: 0.7845). 3.
