   The valuation method used will be the most appropriate valuation 
methodology for an investment within its market, with regard to the 
financial health of the investment and the IPEVCV Guidelines. The 
Directors believe that, within these parameters, there are no other 
possible methods of valuation which would be reasonable as at 30 June 
2014. 
 
   10. Significant interests 
 
   The principal activity of the Group is to select and hold a portfolio of 
investments in unquoted securities. Although the Company, through the 
Manager, will, in some cases, be represented on the board of the 
portfolio company, it will not take a controlling interest or become 
involved in the management of a portfolio company. The size and 
structure of the companies with unquoted securities may result in 
certain holdings in the portfolio representing a participating interest 
without there being any partnership, joint venture or management 
consortium agreement. 
 
   The Company has interests of greater than 20 per cent. of the nominal 
value of any class of the allotted shares in the portfolio companies as 
at 30 June 2014 as described below:
