During the same period, a combination of partial and complete disposals of one unlisted investment and four AIM quoted investments generated aggregate proceeds of £266,000 against cost of £203,000. 

There were no other material transactions during the period under review. 

Between 30 November 2008 and the date of this statement, investments totalling £115,000 were made in one  AIM quoted company and one unlisted company. During the same post quarter-end period, disposals of a listed UK government security, one unlisted investment and two AIM quoted investments generated aggregate  proceeds of £658,000 against cost of £674,000.

Other than described above and changes in the value of investments quoted on regulated markets, the Board is not aware of any material events during the period from 1 September to 30 November 2008, or in the period from 1 December 2008 to the date of this announcement, which would have had a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
