ABOUT VERILUMA:

Veriluma’s patented collaborative decision-making software engine, Intelfuze, was initially developed by a Commonwealth Research Centre before being acquired by Veriluma in 2008.

Veriluma now supplies solutions to the Australian Intelligence Agencies for use in analysing various Australian National Security and Defence scenarios.

Veriluma’s unique software has been developed to critically aid individuals, businesses, governments and their agencies to significantly reduce the margin of error in their strategic decision-making, by better ensuring that the available facts, the tested logic and the reasoning frameworks used are objective and transparent. Unique algorithms and applications provide objective outcomes which lead to more efficient decision-making. Application opportunities exist globally across a wide range of industries, including banking and financial services, insurance, legal, government agencies and others.

Veriluma’s “Intelfuze” software is designed to complement and refine big data and business intelligence tools and to provide solutions to a range of critical business and government problems and decision-making scenarios. Veriluma is an emerging business – however initial targets for growth in Veriluma sales and commercialisation revenues have been identified and will include merger and acquisition specialists, banking and finance applications, the resources sector, as well as legal industry groups and government agencies where Intelfuze can be immediately beneficial in making better decisions.

Furthermore, for pro-forma purposes, the 40,000,000 Performance shares in PML have been treated as issued capital for the purpose of determining the notional purchase price of PML.

Components of equity (other than issued capital), including retained earnings and other reserves, reflect the balances of the accounting acquirer, Verimula.

  • (d) The Directors estimate that costs for the entitlement issue will be $35,000 and this estimated cost has been deducted from the capital raising of $741,087.

  • (e) Costs associated with the acquisition of Verimula – For pro-forma purposes the costs of acquisition for due diligence, preparation of the explanatory memorandum, etc. are assumed to have been incurred and expensed in the pro forma Group balance sheets.

  • (b) Verimula – PML is to acquire Verimula in exchange for the issue of 150,000,000 ordinary shares and 40,000,000 Performance Shares in PML. The acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition in accordance with AASB 3 Business Combinations. For the purposes of the Pro Forma, a value of 3.5 cents has been used as the value per security issued.

  • (c) Entitlement issue – a one for four non-renounceable entitlement issue of Shares at an issue price of $0.035, to raise approximately $741,087.

  • (d) Placement issue – Issue of 14,285,714 Shares, using PML’s placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A, at an issue price of $0.035 per Share to raise 500,000.

  • (e) Reverse Acquisition – Verimula – The number of shares on issue is adjusted to reflect only the listed entity's (PML) issued capital.

  • (f) Reverse Acquisition – Parmelia – The pro-forma adjustment reflects the deemed issue of shares to acquire PML. Performance shares have been issued at a value of 3.5 cents for the purposes of this pro forma.

The fair value of the deemed consideration was assessed at $4,205,437, the issued capital at 30 June 2015 plus (c)and (d) above being 120,155,347 shares at 3.5 cents . The difference between the deemed purchase price $4,205,437 and fair value of net assets acquired $3,333,231 represents $872,206 as goodwill for the estimated fair value of the listing status.

POWERFUL DECISIONS.

Intelfuze has been used by Australian intelligence agencies since 2012.

Intelligence analysts need to rapidly assess threats in order to deliver timely, objective, reliable insights which can be acted upon with certainty.

Intelfuze helps analysts rapidly assess threats from global security, foreign military, transnational terrorism and provides accurate assessments for decision makers.

WHEN FACED WITH COMPLEX VARIABLES How do you reach a decision?

==> picture [721 x 109] intentionally omitted <==

Intelfuze provides greater insight to the risks and opportunities faced by decision makers, despite the quantity or quality of information available.

COLLABORATIVE DECISION MAKING DEFINED

==> picture [85 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

Gartner defines Collaborative Decision Making:

“Platforms combine business intelligence and other sources of information used for decision making with social and collaboration capabilities and decision support tools and methodologies.”

“Brings the right decision makers and information together with decision tools to analyze data, examine an issue, brainstorm and evaluate options, agree on a course of action, and then capture the process to audit and mine for best practices.”

Independent research shows that organisations with collaborative technologies respond to business threats and complete key projects more rapidly. They also experience decreased time to market for new products and increased employee satisfaction.

HOW WE HELP CREATE BETTER DECISIONS

==> picture [85 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

1[st] Step: Question or Hypothesis Identify the primary ‘question’ we wish to solve; Identify the ‘issues’ that might provide insight or evidence in reaching the answer

2[nd] Step: Relationships Describe the relationships between the ‘issues’ ie how they interact, influence or drive one another

3[rd] Step: Inform Add information, evidence, opinions or assumptions to ‘inform’ the identified ‘issues’

4[th] Step: Assess Produce the ‘answer’ ie the outcome with likelihood and certainty for the question posed

  • Same threat assessment took the US Government scientists and mathematicians six months

Stuxnet: determining the origins of a cyber attack on the Iranian nuclear facility

  • In 2010, a Veriluma assessment predicted the US Government with Israel was most likely the developer of the Stuxnet Trojan

  • In 2012, President Obama admitted US Government were behind the attack

Iraq: what is the political future of the country?

  • In 2013, Veriluma was asked by a European intelligence agency, to assess whether Iraq would become a democracy, revert to dictatorship or partition

  • Assessment determined that Iraq was highly likely to partition

Retrospective assessments

  • Should the Netherlands have known earlier during WWII that Germany would invade?

COMPETITION

==> picture [85 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

Business Intelligence and Analytics Vendors

  • Despite increasing investment in Business Intelligence many organisations continue to make poor decisions

  • A few Business Intelligence vendors are providing ‘optional add-ons’ for Collaborative Decision Making to facilitate better and faster decisions

  • Analysis of data collated remains at the heart of the offering and cannot consider ‘unknowns’ or subjective input

Specific Collaborative Decision Making Offerings

  • A handful of vendors offer tools for decisions within specific parameters eg industry focus

  • Each handles the decision making process differently

Veriluma’s Point of Difference

  • Complementary to big data and analytics

  • Patented approach is unique

  • Veriluma determines outcome despite the quantity or quality of information available

  • Known, unknown, uncertain, unreliable

  • Subjective opinions

  • Global application across industries

Making Better Decisions More Often.

16

UNIQUE DIFFERENCE

==> picture [85 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

  • At the core of the patented engine is a mathematical calculus based on Subjective Logic

  • Subjective Logic is suitable for analysing situations involving uncertainty and incomplete knowledge

  • Our engine can deal with what we know AND can also consider what we don’t know

  • Known can be an opinion - a belief about something

  • Intelfuze can take a feed of quantifiable data (known and historical) and combine it with an expert’s prediction (his subjective opinion)

  • Assessments provide insight of the likely outcome (with confidence) about a situation based on the information available at that time

  • Assessments can be repeatedly executed - as new information or opinions arrive or change

INTELFUZE AND THE COLLABORATIVE DECISION PROCESS

==> picture [85 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

  • Designed for analysts to create greater insight and results, for problems, hypotheses and questions

  • The user interface provides analysts with a workbench to build models of problems, add data and assess the likelihood and certainty for the modeled problem

  • Models can be built by clients or partners or by Veriluma using the client/partner’s domain expertise

  • Patented engine is based on Subjective Logic - the engine is called when an assessment is run

  • From within Intelfuze, the analyst can execute an assessment at any time but most often when data is added or changed

  • The patented engine can also be called by an external process (or application), execute an assessment and return the results without the Intelfuze interface (headless)

CHINA PROPERTY FAILURES $33 BILLION DUE

==> picture [85 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

BLOOMBERG NEWS 20 JUNE 2014:

“Chinese property trusts face record repayments next year as the real-estate market cools, fueling speculation among bond funds that more developers will collapse.

The trusts, which channel money from wealthy individuals to smaller builders that have trouble obtaining financing elsewhere, must repay 203.5 billion yuan ($32.7 billion) in 2015, according to Use Trust, a Chinese research firm. That’s almost double the 109 billion yuan due this year. New issuance of the products slumped to 40.7 billion yuan this quarter, the least in more than two years,

“Trust loan defaults will rise substantially,” said Fiona Cheung, head of Asia credit at Manulife Asset Management’s fixed-income team which oversees $44 billion globally. “It won’t be surprising if there are more collapses of China’s property companies. Those companies that suffer from weak sales, that bought land too aggressively last year funded by debt and that have poor access to capital markets will potentially experience cash flow pressure.”

JPMorgan Chase & Co. says the real-estate industry poses the biggest near-term risk to growth in the world’s second-largest economy after new home prices dropped in the most cities in two years last month. China’s banking regulator said on June 6 it will monitor developer finances, a sign of concern defaults may spread after the March collapse of Zhejiang Xingrun Real Estate Co., a builder south of Shanghai.”
