Investment Manager's Review 
 
Investment Activity 
The period under review was characterised by the completion of a number of new 
later stage private equity investments alongside a modest increase in the Total 
Return being achieved by both the Ordinary Share Portfolio and the S Share 
Portfolio. 
 
During the six months ended 30 June 2010, four new unlisted investments and five 
follow on investments were completed and a total of GBP1.4 million was invested. 
At 30 June 2010, the portfolio stood at 65 unlisted and AIM investments at a 
total combined cost of GBP12.1 million. 
 
The following investments have been completed during the period.

Four new substantial investments were added to the portfolio during the six 
months ended 30 June 2010.  These were Beckford Capital, a new company set up to 
pursue acquisitions in the Leisure and Hotels industry; Torridon Capital, the 
holding company of Litcomp plc, a speciality insurance business where the 
Manager led a public to private transaction; Tosca Penta Investments, which 
invests in esure, the well known general and motor insurance provider which was 
acquired from Lloyds Banking Group; and lastly, XPD8 Solutions, which operates 
in the condition monitoring and asset integrity segment of the oil and gas 
industry. 
 
 All of these assets are forecast to generate substantial income mainly via 
loan stock based structures. The continuation of this later stage and yield 
based investment strategy using the Maven network of offices should ensure that 
the Company is well placed to be able to support its long term dividend 
programme. 
 
In line with the strategy of reducing exposure to the AIM market in favour of 
later stage private equity transactions, the Manager has continued to pursue the 
structured realisation of the element of the investment portfolio. 
 
The table on page 6 gives details of realisations during the reporting period.

Performance 
The Total Return per Ordinary Share at 30 June 2010 was 103.4p, an increase of 
0.9p or 0.9% over the equivalent figure at 31 December 2009. The Total Return 
per S Share at 30 June 2010 was 101.05p, an increase of 1.6p or 1.6% over the 
equivalent figure at 31 December 2009. 
 
The Net Asset Value (NAV) per Ordinary share at 30 June 2010, after payment of 
the final dividend of 2.5p in respect of the year ended 31 December 2009, was 
88.1p compared with 89.7p at 31 December 2009. The NAV per S share at 30 June 
2010, after payment of the final dividend of 0.5p in respect of the year ended 
31 December 2009, was 95.5p compared with 94.4p at 31 December 2009. 
 
 
Dividend policy 
The Board continues to target regular annual dividend payments subject to the 
availability of distributable reserves. The Board declares an interim dividend 
of 1.0p per Ordinary share and 1.0p per S Share to be paid on 27 September 2010 
to Shareholders on the Register at 27 August 2010. 
 
The Company paid dividends totalling 3.5p per Ordinary Share and 1.5p per S 
Share in respect of the year ended 31 December 2009 which is equivalent to 4.7p 
and 2.0p gross from a taxable UK equity. This represents a yield of 5.8% per 
annum on the Ordinary Shares and 2.1% per annum on the S Shares based on their 
net cost after initial tax relief.  Based on the mid-market price at 30 June 
2010, the equivalent yields are 7.2% and 2.8% for a 40% rate taxpayer. 
 
Principal risks and uncertainties 
The Board has reviewed the principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company 
in the second half of its financial year: these are unchanged from those it 
faced at the start of the year, which are set out in the annual report, and are 
the risks involved in investment in small and unquoted companies. 
 
 In order to reduce exposure to investment risk, the Company has invested in a 
broadly-based portfolio of investments in unlisted and AIM/PLUS quoted companies 
in the United Kingdom. The VCT qualifying status of the Company is reviewed 
regularly by your Board and monitored on a continuous basis by the Manager in 
order to ensure that all of the criteria for VCT status continue to be met. 
 
Recovery of VAT 
The company received an offer from the former Manager Aberdeen Asset Managers to 
refund GBP94,898 representing all VAT charged on investment management fees for 
the period from 1 October 2005 to 1 October 2008. This offer was accepted by the 
directors subject to reserving the Company's rights in respect of sums not 
repaid for earlier periods. The amount received has been recognised within the 
financial statements and allocated to revenue and capital in accordance with the 
underlying accounting policy 
 
Outlook 
We will continue to select only those companies which are well managed, sensibly 
priced and capable of providing a premium yield together with the prospects of a 
capital gain in the medium to longer term. 
 
 As economic conditions stabilise we anticipate a continuing increase in the 
number of private company investment opportunities. With a presence across the 
UK regions, the manager is well placed to take advantage of these opportunities 
as they arise.
