For a GBP1 investment per share investors, with a sufficient income tax 
liability in the relevant year, can expect to have received a 30p tax credit, a 
first dividend of 1.76p and a second dividend of 1.23p, which taken together 
with the current NAV of 82.69p per share totals 115.68p. 
 
Chairman's Statement 
 
I am writing to you to present the unaudited interim results for TP70 2008 (II) 
VCT plc ("the Company") for the six months ended 30 September 2010. 
 
The first note is one of great sadness in that David Dick, who was Managing 
Partner of the Investment Manager, died on 5 September 2010. The Board's 
condolences go to David's family. He will be sadly missed. 
 
Investment Strategy 
 
The Company's investment strategy offers combined exposure to GAM's fund of 
hedge funds GAM Diversity and venture capital investments focused on companies 
with contractual revenues from financially secure counterparties. 
 
By 31 March 2011 in order to secure the VCT qualifying status, the Company's 
intention is that at least 70% of total investments will be committed to VCT 
qualifying holdings. The balance of up to 30% is exposed to GAM Diversity 2.5 
XL. As detailed in the Investment Manager's Report, the Board is pleased to note 
that during the period GBP2m of further VCT qualifying investments were made. 
VCT qualifying investments now account for some 57.43% of investments at 
original cost and as such the Company is on course to meet the 70% threshold. In 
the meantime, pending deployment into qualifying investments, 11.8% of funds by 
value are held in money market funds. 
 
Board Changes 
 
With effect from 15 October 2010 Sir John Lucas Tooth and Robert Reid retired as 
Directors of the Company and Michael Stanes was appointed to the Board. These 
changes took place as part of an overall reordering of the composition of the 
boards of the VCTs managed by Triple Point Investment Management LLP, to comply 
with a listing rule necessitating a change to the boards requiring a majority of 
the boards to be both independent of the manager, and not to sit on the boards 
of other VCTs managed by the Manager. 
 
Michael Stanes joined Warburg Investment Management (which became Mercury Asset 
Management) where he ran equity portfolios in London and Tokyo. He then moved to 
the US where he founded a business on behalf of Merrill Lynch offering equity 
portfolio management to high net worth individuals. For 
five years he worked at Goldman Sachs Asset Management in London running global 
equity portfolios for a range of institutional and individual clients before 
leaving in late 2007 to pursue other opportunities. 
 
The remaining Board members are very grateful for the considerable contributions 
of Sir John and Robert to TP70 2008 (II) since its establishment. Following 
these changes the Company's Board will thus comprise Chad Murrin, Peter 
Hargreaves and Michael Stanes. 
 
Results 
 
Over the period the Company made a loss before tax of GBP586,000 or 2.58p per 
share of which GBP611,000 was attributable to the performance of GAM Diversity 
2.5XL. At 30 September 2010 the NAV per share stood at 82.69p. The performance 
of GAM Diversity 2.5XL is detailed in the Investment Managers' Report. 
 
The Company paid a dividend of 1.23p per share to shareholders. This brings the 
total dividends paid to shareholders to date to 2.99p per share. 
 
Risks and Uncertainties 
 
The Board believes that the principal risks facing the Company over the 
remainder of the financial period are: 
·      investment risk associated with exposure to GAM Diversity 2.5 XL 
·      investment risk associated with undertaking VCT qualifying investments 
·      failure to secure final approval as a VCT 
 
The Board believe these risks are as expected for a company with TP70 2008 (II) 
VCT plc's strategy. The Board continues to work closely with the Investment 
Manager to endeavour to minimise either the likelihood or potential impact of 
these risks, within the scope of the Company's established investment strategy. 
 
Outlook 
 
The Board is pleased with the progress the Company continues to make in building 
up its portfolio of VCT qualifying holdings and is confident that the Company is 
on track for VCT qualification and is encouraged by the progress of the VCT 
portfolio that has been established. 
 
If you have any queries or comments, please do not hesitate to telephone Triple 
Point Investment Management LLP on 020 7201 8990.

Investment Manager's Report 
 
The Company's objective is to deploy at least 70% of its funds into VCT 
qualifying investments and, with the remainder of its funds, to offer leveraged 
exposure to GAM's flagship fund of hedge funds; Diversity, via GAM Diversity GBP 
2.5XL. 
 
Over the period of this review, the Company has continued to make progress with 
its investment programme and at 30 September 2010 the Company had deployed 
57.43% of investments in VCT qualifying investments. The Company's effective 
exposure to GAM Diversity 2.5XL stands at 21.7% of NAV. 
 
GAM Diversity Review and Outlook 
 
Over the period GAM Diversity 2.5XL lost 12.90% which resulted in a 2.67p loss 
per share impact on the NAV. This disappointing return was mainly attributable 
to two specific funds held in the Arbitrage sector of GAM Diversity, one of 
which has exposure to commercial and the other to residential real estate. These 
asset classes faced significant challenges throughout the second quarter due to 
the weaker than expected macro environment in both Europe and the US. During the 
period, TPIM and the Board have maintained an active dialogue with GAM and 
remain of the view that exposure to Diversity 2.5XL should be maintained. 
 
During the remainder of this year, GAM expects financial markets to face the 
headwind of further disappointing economic data from the US and, to a lesser 
degree, Europe (where expectations are lower) as the key factors that hampered 
the recovery of both the private sector and consumption growth persist. 
Consumers are likely to remain reluctant to consume and banks conservative in 
their lending policies, despite the best efforts of some administrations to 
force them to lend more. 
 
Against such a backdrop, GAM has reported that Diversity is positioned with a 
portfolio of experienced, high conviction managers who do not rely on overall 
market direction in order to generate returns. The fund aims to maintain a lower 
correlation to equity and credit markets than many of its peers in order that 
the portfolio should be well placed to perform, particularly in volatile and 
uncertain markets. 
 
VCT Qualifying Investments - Review and Outlook 
 
The Company holds 57.43% of its funds in VCT qualifying investments. These 
investments cover services to the cinema industry, provision of satellite 
broadband capacity, telecommunications, medical gas supplies and crematorium 
management. 
 
Over the period of this review, a further two investments of GBP1 million each 
were made in cinema digitisation companies. All of the above qualifying 
investments were described in more detail in the Financial Statements for the 
year ended 31 March 2010. 
 
Our primary focus for the next six months is to deploy further funds into VCT 
qualifying investments to meet the 70% qualifying investment threshold. There 
are a number of target companies in the pipeline comprising businesses in 
particular in the leisure, environment and energy sectors. With this promising 
pipeline we are confident that the Company will meet its target.

*Lorngreen holds 50% of the Company's exposure to GAM Diversity 2.5XL 
 
The Company holds 50% of the issued share capital of Lorngreen. However the 
Company does not account for its investments in associates using equity 
accounting, as IAS28 "Investments in Associates" does not apply to venture 
capital organisations. They are instead treated as portfolio investments. 
 
VCT qualifying investments are stated at cost which is considered to represent 
fair value 
 
 
Directors' Responsibility Statement 
 
The Directors have chosen to prepare the interim financial report for the 
Company in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). 
 
In preparing the interim report for the 6 month period to 30 September 2010, the 
Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge: 
a)  the interim report has been prepared in accordance with international 
accounting standard IAS34,"Interim Financial Reporting" issued by the 
International Accounting Standards Board; 
b)  the interim report includes a fair review of important events during the 
period and their effect on the financial report and a description of principal 
risks and uncertainties for the remainder of the accounting period; 
c)  the interim report gives a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS of the 
assets, liabilities, financial position and of the profit or loss of the company 
for the period and comply with IFRS and the Companies Act 2006; 
d)  the interim report includes a fair review of related party transactions and 
changes therein. There were no related party transactions during the period 
other than detailed in note 16; and 
 e) the Company's business activities, together with the factors likely to 
affect the future development, performance and position, are set out in the 
Business Review in the 31 March 2010 Annual Report. The financial position of 
the Company's cash flows and liquidity position are described in the Business 
Review and notes to the accounts for the period ended 31 March 2010. In addition 
the Annual Report includes the objectives, policies and processes for managing 
its capital, its financial risk management objectives, details of its financial 
instruments and its exposure to credit and liquidity risk. 
     As a consequence, the Directors believe that the Company has sufficient 
financial resources to manage its business risks successfully in the current 
uncertain economic outlook. 
     The Directors have reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate 
resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus 
they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the 
financial statements. 
 
This interim report has not been audited or reviewed by the auditors.
