Because none of our current venture capital investments have
readily available market values, we value our venture capital
investments each quarter at fair value as determined in good
faith by our valuation committee within guidelines established by
our board of directors in accordance with the 1940 Act...

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash, receivables and
freely marketable securities, net of short-term indebtedness.
Our secondary sources of liquidity are restricted securities of
companies that are publicly traded. We currently have no
restricted securities of companies that are publicly traded...



Do a search on "CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS" for a list of invested companies.

But hey, none of that is to say the market gives a flying rip(g).
