    CURRENT EXAMPLE OF OUR PARTNERING STRATEGY

  • RETURNING VALUE FOR SHAREHOLDERS

    24

    Generate Meaningful Returns by

    Increasing Net Asset Value (NAV) per Share

  • GROWTH IN AVERAGE OWNERSHIP

    Notes: Average ownership data includes investment-weighted ownership percentages on a fully diluted basis as of September 30, 2014, for unrealized investments including investments in pending tranches of previously closed financings, as applicable. Many of our current portfolio companies may raise additional capital, and depending on many factors our ownership could increase or decrease in these companies as a result of these financings. The data for 2005-2008 does not include ownership in Ancora Pharmaceuticals Inc. If this investment was included, the investment-weighted average ownership would be approximately 16 percent. There is no guarantee that the projections of average future ownership will be achieved. Do not place undue reliance on such projections.
