Net Asset Value (NAV) The NAV as at 31 March 2009 was 26.1p per share compared with an NAV of 26.8p per share as at 31 December 2008. The decline is largely due to a downward re-valuation of the unquoted investment in Skinkers Limited and reflects a follow-on round in which the Company contributed £122,000. During the quarter the Company also invested a further £26,000 in Academia Networks Limited. After the period end, one follow-on investment of £202,000 has been made in Secerno Limited.

Other than described above, the Board is not aware of any events during the period from 31 March 2009 to the date of this statement, which would have had a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
