We report on the financial information in respect of Nortek Group for the year
ended 31 December 2016 set out above in Part I (Nortek, Inc. Consolidated
Historical Financial Information), required to be included in the announcement
of Melrose Industries PLC (the "Company") dated 24 March 2017 to transfer its
entire ordinary share capital from the standard segment of the Official List
of the FCA to the premium segment (the "Transfer Announcement").  This
financial information has been prepared for inclusion in the Transfer
Announcement on the basis of the accounting policies set out in note 2 to the
financial information. This report is required by obligations that the Company
has under Listing Rule 6.1.3DR and is given for the purpose of complying with
that requirement and for no other purpose. 
 
Responsibilities 
 
The Directors of the Company are responsible for preparing the financial
information on the basis of preparation set out in Note 2 to the financial
information. 
 
It is our responsibility to form an opinion on the financial information and
to report our opinion to you.  Save for any responsibility which we may have
to those persons to whom this report is expressly addressed as a result of the
inclusion of this report in the Announcement, to the fullest extent permitted
by law we do not assume any responsibility and will not accept any liability
to any other person for any loss suffered by any such other person as a result
of, arising out of, or in connection with this report or our statement,
consenting to its inclusion in the Announcement. 
 
Basis of opinion 
 
We conducted our work in accordance with Standards for Investment Reporting
issued by the Auditing Practices Board in the United Kingdom. Our work
included an assessment of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in
the financial information.  It also included an assessment of significant
estimates and judgments made by those responsible for the preparation of the
financial information and whether the accounting policies are appropriate to
the entity's circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed. 
 
We planned and performed our work so as to obtain all the information and
explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with
sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial
information is free from material misstatement whether caused by fraud or
other irregularity or error. 
 
Our work has not been carried out in accordance with auditing or other
standards and practices generally accepted in jurisdictions outside the United
Kingdom, including the United States of America, and accordingly should not be
relied upon as if it had been carried out in accordance with those standards
and practices. 
 
Opinion on financial information 
 
In our opinion, the financial information gives, for the purposes of the
Transfer Announcement, a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the
Nortek Group as at 31 December 2016 and of its losses, cash flows and changes
in equity for the year ended 31 December 2016 in accordance with the basis of
preparation set out in Note 2 to the financial information.
