Total, for all electricity exported and will receive Renewable 
Obligation Certificates at the rate of two per MW generated as it was 
commissioned before 31 March 2013. 
 
   A GBP900,000 investment was made in Vulcan Renewables Limited. The 
company is developing a 2.0MW maize fed biogas plant near Doncaster. 
Biogas is produced through an anaerobic digestion process, which is then 
processed further so that it can be injected into the National Gas Grid. 
Some of the gas is also used to produce electricity. The company will 
receive both Feed-In Tariffs and payments under the Renewable Heat 
Incentive scheme. 
 
   As part of a loan restructuring, a further GBP217,000 was invested into 
an existing investment, Mosaic Spa and Health Clubs Limited. Part of the 
investment was qualifying. 
 
   GBP199,000 was received to pay down the existing loan in Kidspace 
Adventures Limited, these proceeds were reinvested into Kidspace 
Adventures Holdings Limited. 
 
   A follow on investment of GBP373,000 was made in Tooting Tram and Social 
Limited 
 
   Venture capital portfolio valuation 
 
   A number of portfolio companies have started to develop well, resulting 
in uplifts in value of Residential PV Trading (GBP96,000), Tooting Tram 
and Social Limited (GBP80,000), Kidspace Adventures Holdings Limited 
(GBP59,000) and Odysian (Holdings) Limited (GBP10,000). 
 
   There have, however, been three investments that have lost value, City 
Falkirk Limited, Mosaic Spa and Health Clubs Limited and Lochrise 
Limited. 
 
   Performance of the nightclub owned by City Falkirk Limited has 
unfortunately been significantly below expectation and a reduction in 
value of GBP102,000 has been made. We are working closely with the 
club's management in order to try to bring the trading back on track, 
however, it is clear that the depressed economic conditions are a major 
contributing factor to the weak performance. For the same reason a full 
provision of GBP13,000 has been made against the management company of 
the club Lochrise Limited. 
 
   Mosaic Spa and Health Clubs Limited, owns and manages two health clubs: 
The Shrewsbury Club, in Shrewsbury; and Holmer Park, in Hereford. It 
also provides gym and spa management services to hotels, universities 
and corporate clients. Both Holmer Park and The Shrewsbury club have 
underperformed throughout the period against budget and the value has 
been reduced by GBP161,000. 
 
   Structured Product portfolio 
 
   The Company's defensive approach to Structured Product investing 
produced good rewards over the year as the portfolio generated 
unrealised gains of GBP96,000 and realised gains of GBP142,000. 
 
   A significant number of Structured Products matured during the year 
which, along with two sales, produced proceeds of GBP3.4 million and 
provided funds for the new qualifying venture capital investments 
described above. 
 
   The Structured Product portfolio now comprises seven investments. In 
line with the pool's strategy, the portfolio will continue to reduce in 
size as more investments mature or are sold to fund further qualifying 
investments over the next year. We expect to see continued steady 
performance from the existing Structured Product portfolio. 
 
   Outlook 
 
   Although the general economic outlook is a little brighter than it has 
been, close monitoring of the investments within both the venture 
capital and Structured Product portfolios will continue to be the focus 
of our work to ensure that any issues are addressed at the earliest 
stage and full value can ultimately be extracted when we start the 
realisation process in 2016.

   INVESTMENT MANAGER'S REPORT - LOW CARBON SHARE POOL 
 
   Introduction 
 
   The task of building the Low Carbon investment portfolio was completed 
at an early stage, ahead of deadlines for changes in the Feed-in Tariffs 
("FiTs") and other regulations. As a result, there has been limited 
investment activity in the period. The investee companies have now 
started to establish steady track records and some have justified 
initial uplifts in value.
