Pantheon Ventures Ltd.

Pantheon has been active in private equity since 1982 and is now one of the
world's leading private equity fund-of-funds managers, with £8.6 billion under
management (as at 31 December 2006), investments in some 500 private equity
funds in over 30 countries and offices in London, San Francisco, Hong Kong and
Brussels. Pantheon is part of the Russell Investment Group.

PIP's valuation policy for private equity funds is based on the latest accounts
produced by the managers of the funds in which PIP has holdings. In the case of
the valuation as at 30 April 2007, the majority of valuations are dated 31
December 2006. Private equity funds may contain a proportion of quoted shares
from time to time, for example where the underlying company investments have
been taken public but the holdings have not yet been sold. The quoted market
holdings at the date of the latest fund accounts are reviewed and compared with
the value of those holdings at the year end. If there has been a material
movement in the value of these holdings, the valuation is adjusted to reflect
this.
