Chairman's Statement
I am pleased to present the Company's results for the six months

The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of F&C Private
Equity Trust plc ('F&C PET') and was established solely for the
purpose of issuing and redeeming Zero Dividend Preference Shares
('ZDP Shares'). 30,000,000 ZDP Shares were issued on 14 December
2009 at 100 pence per share and will redeem on 15 December 2014 at
a price of 152.14 pence per ZDP Share, giving a redemption yield of
8.75 per cent per annum. The proceeds of the ZDP Shares issue were
lent to F&C PET for use in future investment opportunities.
As at 30 June 2013 the ZDP Share price was 144.00 pence,
representing a premium of 8.1 per cent over the net asset value per
ZDP Share of 133.16 pence.
