This is a new English limited liability partnership, which is authorised and regulated by the FSA and which has the same controlling members as ISIS EP LLP ('the Manager'). The Manager will continue to act as the manager of the Company and as the investment manager of all the Company's illiquid assets (being all AiM-traded and other venture capital investments). The existing management agreement will terminate with effect from 1 January 2007. The Manager and the Company will enter into a new management agreement, commencing on 1 January 2007, substantially on the same terms as the existing management agreement, save in relation to the investment management of the liquid assets. In addition, the Manager, the Company and FPPE LLP will enter into an agreement relating to the investment management by FPPE LLP of the liquid assets. The personnel involved in providing management and investment management services to the Company will not change as a result of the implementation of the new arrangements. Amounts equal to the fees payable by the Company to FPPE LLP will be deducted from the Manager's fees and, accordingly, the implementation of the new arrangements will not result in any overall increase of the management and performance fees payable by the Company.
