21.2 | The Vendor understands and acknowledges that the shares of Class A Common Stock of Malibu US received as Scrip Consideration have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act nor the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, nor is such registration contemplated and, therefore, that such securities cannot be resold unless they are

45

Exhibit 2.1
registered under the Securities Act, or unless an exemption from registration is available. The Vendor further understands that the shares of Class A Common Stock of Malibu US received as Scrip Consideration are characterized as “restricted securities” under U.S. securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from Malibu US in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. The Vendor further understands that because the shares of Class A Common Stock of Malibu US received as Scrip Consideration have not been qualified or registered under the laws of any other jurisdiction, they may be viewed as restricted securities under any or all of such other applicable securities laws. The Vendor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, a holding period for the shares of Class A Common Stock of Malibu US received as Scrip Consideration, and on requirements relating to Malibu US which are outside of the Vendor’s control.

(a) | The purchaser of the securities (other than a distributor) certifies that it is not a U.S. person as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S of the Securities Act and is not acquiring the securities for the account or benefit of any U.S. person or is a U.S. person who purchased securities in a transaction that did not require registration under the Securities Act;

(b) | The purchaser of the securities agrees to resell such securities only in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S of the Securities Act, pursuant to registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from registration; and agrees not to engage in hedging transactions with regard to such securities unless in compliance with the Securities Act;

(c) | The securities will contain a legend to the effect that transfer is prohibited except in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S of the Securities Act, pursuant to registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from registration; and that hedging transactions involving those securities may not be conducted unless in compliance with the Securities Act.

Exhibit 2.1

Annexure B | Unqualified audit opinion terms

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Malibu Boats Pty Limited (“the company”), which
comprises the statements of financial position as at 30 June 2014 and 2013, and the statements of
comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows for each of the
years then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information and the directors' declaration.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial
report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and for such internal control as the directors
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note [XX], 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.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our
audits in accordance with US Generally Accepted Auditing Standards and Australian Auditing Standards.
These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
report is free from material misstatement.
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 judgment, 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
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 the directors, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Australian
professional accounting bodies.
Opinion
In our opinion:
(a) the financial report presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Malibu Boats Pty
Limited as at 30 June 2014 and 2013 and of its financial performance and cash flows for each of the
years then ended in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards;
(b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in
Note [XX.]; and
(c) the financial report Note [XX] accurately describes the differences between the financial statements
presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the financial statements if
they were presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States
as required by Item 17 of Form 20-F as published by the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission.
