| | The interim financial statements have been
    prepared by Brantley Capital Corporation (the
    Company) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
    Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to quarterly
    reports on Form 10-Q. Certain information and footnote
    disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
    in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
    been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
    regulations, although management believes that the disclosures
    are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
    These financial statements should be read in conjunction with
    the audited financial statements and related notes and schedules
    included in the Companys 2001 Annual Report filed on
    Form 10-K dated December 31, 2001.
|
| | The unaudited financial statements reflect, in
    the opinion of management, all adjustments, all of which are of
    a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the
    financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2002, the
    results of its operations for the quarter ended June 30,
    2002, the results of its operations for the six months ended
    June 30, 2002, and its cash flows for the six months ended
    June 30, 2002. Interim results are not necessarily
    indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
|
| | Privately placed securities are carried at fair
    value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of
    the Board of Directors. Generally, the fair value of each
    security will initially be based primarily upon its original
    cost to the Company. Cost will be the primary factor used to
    determine fair value on an ongoing basis until significant
    developments or other factors affecting the investment (such as
    results of the portfolio companys operations, changes in
    the general market conditions, subsequent financings or the
    availability of market quotations) provide a basis for value
    other than cost valuation.                                                                                                                                                                              
|
| | Portfolio investments listed on an exchange or
    traded on NASDAQ National Market are valued at the closing price
    listed on their respective exchange or system on the date of
    valuation. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market will
    be valued on the average of the closing bid and asked prices on
    the day of valuation.

| | Debt securities with 60 days or less
    remaining to maturity will be valued at amortized cost.

Capital Management, LLC (BCM), the Companys
investment adviser is not properly registered under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940. BCM inadvertently failed to
maintain its registration as a registered investment adviser
under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. BCM has filed the
documentation to register as an investment adviser, a process
that generally takes 45 days or more. There can be no
assurance that BCM can become registered as an investment
adviser, or if it can, the timeframe for such registration, or
the impact, if any, of its failure to have been registered.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of
    Financial Condition and Results of Operations General



| |         
| | --------
| | Overview

We are a non-diversified investment company that
is regulated as a business development company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. We provide equity and long-term
debt financing to small and medium-sized private companies in a
variety of industries throughout the United States. In addition,
we invest a portion of our assets in small-capitalization public
companies. Our investment objective is to achieve long-term
capital appreciation in the value of our investments and to
provide current income primarily from interest, dividends and
fees paid by our portfolio companies.

Historically, we have focused our investing
activities on private equity securities. We generally structure
our private equity investments as participating preferred stock
with an 8% to 10% dividend yield that accumulates and is paid
upon a liquidity event. Our private equity investments typically
range from $1 million to $5 million, and we generally
expect these investments to achieve liquidity within four to
seven years. We typically do not receive a cash return on our
private equity investments until a liquidity event occurs, but
instead seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation in net
asset value through such investments.

In the past year we have explored various
strategic alternatives to enhance our growth and
stockholders value. We determined that operating at our
current size or attempting to realize premature liquidity events
within our portfolio would not enhance the market value of our
common stock and would limit our ability to generate recurring
income sought by the investment community and our stockholders.
Specifically, we have been exploring the possibility of
expanding our origination of mezzanine investments. Shares of
business development companies that invest primarily in
mezzanine investments tend to trade at a premium to net asset
value per share due to the expectation of current income
produced by such investments. There can be no assurance that our
shares will trade at a premium to net asset value. We believe
that current market conditions, influenced by more stringent
credit standards of commercial banks and more conservative
capital structures sought by entrepreneurs and equity sponsors,
have created an increased demand for mezzanine investments.

Mezzanine investments would be expected to
provide a current cash return to us in the form of interest and
origination fees. We typically participate in any increase in
the equity value of the companies to whom we provide mezzanine
financing through warrants or other equity rights. We anticipate
that mezzanine investments would provide less potential for
appreciation in our net asset value than private equity
investments, but would instead provide higher current income
that may be distributed to our stockholders. In the future, we
may also seek to further leverage our portfolio by utilizing
additional borrowings to fund our investments.

In order to fund the origination of mezzanine
investments, we are exploring various capital-raising
alternatives. We intend to use the proceeds of such an event to
make mezzanine investments. We can make no assurances that a
capital raising effort will be undertaken or that any of our
portfolio companies would experience a liquidity event. We can
also make no assurances that our plan to expand our origination
of mezzanine investments will be consummated or be successful.

On June 4, 2002 the Company announced that
it had received board approval to pursue a preliminary plan to
raise capital for the purpose of expanding its origination of
mezzanine investments. As part of the plan, we intend to
initiate a rights offering to stockholders where each
stockholder will receive a right to purchase one new share of
the Companys common stock for every three shares of common
stock that a stockholder owns. The right would entitle the
holder to purchase the share of common stock at a discount to
the market price. Based on the current number of shares
outstanding, the plan would increase the outstanding shares by
up to 1.27 million shares. The subscription price and the
record date for the distribution of the rights have not been
determined. We anticipate that the rights will be transferable
and will be admitted for trading on the Nasdaq National Market.
There can be no assurance that a market for the rights will
develop.

In addition to the rights offering, we intend to
apply for inclusion in the Small Business Investment Company
program of the Small Business Administration (the
SBA). If granted, we would be eligible for debt
financing from the SBA at an amount up to two times the equity
financing expected from the rights offering. We intend to file a
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and an application with the SBA, which will be
subject to review. There can be no assurance that we will be
able to obtain a license to operate an SBIC or that we will be
able to obtain leverage from the SBA.

| | ---------------------------
| | Certain Accounting Policies

Privately placed equity and mezzanine securities
are carried at fair value as determined in good faith by our
board of directors. Initially, the fair value of each such
security is based upon its original cost. Cost is also the
primary factor used to determine fair value on an ongoing basis
until significant developments or other factors affecting the
investment (such as results of subsequent financings, the
availability of market quotations, the portfolio companys
operations and changes in general market conditions) provide a
basis for value other than cost. Portfolio investments listed on
a securities exchange or traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market are
valued at the closing price listed on the relevant exchange or
quotation system on the date of valuation. Securities traded in
the over-the-counter market are valued based on the average of
the closing bid and asked prices on the date of valuation.

Origination fees are recognized as income during
the period in which they are received. Interest income is
recorded on mezzanine investments when the payment is
contractually due unless a loan is more than 30 days past
due. Interest is not accrued on any loans that are more than
30 days past due.

We account for our operations utilizing
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for investment companies. On this basis, the principal measure
of our financial performance is captioned Net change in
net assets resulting from operations, which is the sum of
two elements. The first element is Investment income
(loss), net, which is the difference between (1) our
income from interest, dividends and fees, and (2) our
operating expenses. The second element is Net gain
(loss) on investment transactions, which is the sum
of (1) the difference between the proceeds received from
our dispositions of portfolio securities and their stated cost
(Net realized gain (loss) on investments), and
(2) the net change in the fair value of our investment
portfolio (Net unrealized gain (loss) on
investments). Net realized gain (loss) on
investments and Net unrealized gain (loss) on
investments are directly related. For example, in the
period during which a security is sold to realize a gain, net
unrealized gain on investments decreases, and net realized gain
on investments increases.

Historically, we have focused our investing
activities on private equity securities. We began making such
investments in 1997 and are now entering into a phase of the
business plan which emphasizes positioning our more mature
portfolio companies for appropriate liquidity events. As a
result, we are continuously monitoring portfolio company results
and evaluating opportunities to maximize the valuation of our
investments. In that regard, we periodically evaluate potential
acquisitions, financing transactions, initial public offerings,
strategic alliances, and sale opportunities involving our
portfolio companies. Any such transaction could have an impact
on the valuation of our investments. These transactions and
activities are generally not disclosed to our stockholders and
the investing public until such time as the transactions are
publicly announced or completed, as the case may be.

Results of Operations



| |                             
| | ----------------------------
| | Dividend and Interest Income

Dividend and interest income on investments for
the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $512,778
and $413,918. Dividend and interest income on investments for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $990,718 and
$853,881, respectively. The increase in interest and dividend
income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002
was primarily because of the ongoing increase in the private
equity and mezzanine portfolio which generates dividend and
interest income.



| |                   
| | ------------------
| | Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses during the three months
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $683,917 and $556,957
respectively. The significant component of total operating
expenses was advisory fees of $448,197 and $371,504 earned by
our investment adviser during the three months ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The increase in total
operating expenses was primarily due to the increase in the
Advisory Fees resulting from the increase in net asset value and
expenses related to contested matters to be voted on at the
Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Total operating expenses during the six months
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $1,440,153 and
$1,308,675, respectively. The significant component of total
operating expenses was advisory fees of $936,321

##### Table of Contents



and $723,075 earned by our investment adviser
during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. The increase in total operating expenses was
primarily due to the increase in advisory fees resulting from
the increase in net asset value.

| | Net Realized and Unrealized Gains on
    Investment Transactions

During the three months ended June 30, 2002
and 2001, valuation of our equity and mezzanine investments
resulted in net realized and unrealized gains on investments of
($84,446) and $3,465,106. During the six months ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001, valuation of our equity and
mezzanine investments resulted in net realized and unrealized
gains on investments of $207,858 and $3,940,720, respectively.
At June 30, 2002, and 2001, we had investments in eleven
privately-held companies, as well as in various
small-capitalization public stocks which are subject to general
stock market and business conditions. The unrealized gains
during such periods were significantly influenced by general
stock market and business conditions as well as the
June 30, 2001 financing transaction of Flight Options
International, Inc. as more fully described under
Financial Conditions, Liquidity and Capital
Resources.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital
Resources

At June 30 2002 and December 31, 2001,
we had $1,021,221 and $5,369,345, respectively, in cash and cash
equivalents which were primarily invested in United States
Treasury securities. Restricted cash is held under direction of
our lender and is not readily available to fund investments or
pay operating expenses. Our management believes that proceeds
from our investments will provide us with the liquidity
necessary to pay our operating expenses and make follow-on
investments. However, in order to execute our mezzanine
investment plan, we will continue to seek opportunities to raise
additional capital.

At June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001,
we had stockholders equity of $67,764,737 and $68,006,314,
respectively, resulting in net asset values per share of $17.78
and 17.85 respectively. At June 30, 2002, we had $6,000,000
of outstanding indebtedness. For the six months ended
June 30, 2002, the weighted average interest rate on this
indebtedness was 4.75%.

Brantley Venture Partners II, L.P., Brantley
Venture Partners III, L.P. and Brantley Partners IV, L.P. hold,
in the aggregate, approximately $211 million of private equity
investments. These partnerships are related to our investment
adviser in a manner that required the receipt, from the
Securities and Exchange Commission, of an exemption from certain
provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 in order to
permit us, under certain circumstances, to invest in the same
portfolio companies as the other private investment funds
managed by our investment adviser. [see Recent
Developments]

Consistent with our current long-term objectives,
our board of directors has recently asked our investment adviser
to consider ways to maximize stockholder value in the event that
our net asset value has not appreciated by a minimum of 15% per
annum for the seven-year period ending December 31, 2003.
Such actions could include, but are not limited to, a possible
recommendation to consider the sale of some or all of our
investments. Our management has been pleased with the
performance of our portfolio companies since inception and
believes that liquidity opportunities that generally start
presenting themselves several years into a portfolio of this
nature may create gains for us over the next few years. Our
portfolio is just beginning to enter a period of possible
liquidity events. However, in light of the market price of our
common stock relative to its net asset value, our management has
reiterated our planned goals and objectives and has reassured
our stockholders that our management intends to take action if
those goals and objectives are not met. Nevertheless, our
management expects to meet our net asset value appreciation
target.

At June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001,
the aggregate cost of the investments we made to date was
$30.8 million and $28.9 million, respectively, and
their aggregate market value was $62.5 million and
$60.3 million, respectively, for an aggregate fair value
appreciation of 103% and 109%, respectively. Our management
believes that our portfolio companies have significant potential
for long-term growth in sales and earnings.

Since the completion of our initial public
offering, our management has focused its investment activities
on securing new investments for our portfolio. However, given
the nature of our current portfolio and the fact that

13

##### Table of Contents



this portfolio as a whole is maturing, our
management is seeking to position the more mature portfolio
companies for appropriate liquidity events. We are continuously
monitoring portfolio company results and evaluating
opportunities to maximize the value of our investments. In that
regard, we periodically evaluate potential acquisitions,
financing transactions, initial public offerings, strategic
alliances and sale opportunities involving our portfolio
companies. These transactions and activities are generally not
disclosed to our stockholders and the investing public until
such time as the transactions are publicly announced or
completed, as the case may be. Any such transaction could have
an impact on the valuation of our investments. However, these
revised valuations would generally not be adjusted until the
transaction is publicly announced or completed.

| | Private Portfolio Company
    Investments

Our equity and mezzanine investments at
June 30, 2002 are listed in Note 5 to the Financial
Statements and are described below:



| |                                 
| | --------------------------------
| | Disposable Products Company, LLC

On August 10, 1998, we entered into an
investment led by Banc One Capital to provide $1.0 million
of a $3.0 million subordinated debt facility with warrants
for Disposable Products Company, LLC. Disposable Products is an
acquisition strategy company in the business of manufacturing
and converting paper and non-woven materials into wiping
products for sale to commercial, institutional, industrial and
government markets. In addition, Disposable Products is a
converter and reseller of other safety and industrial/janitorial
products. Proceeds of the transaction were used to complete
Disposable Products first acquisition. The terms of the
debt facility call for a 12% interest rate per annum with a
final maturity in 2003. We also received a detachable capital
stock purchase warrant exercisable for 5% of the fully-diluted
capital stock of Disposable Products at the time of exercise at
a nominal exercise price. On January 26, 2001, we funded a
$166,667 12% promissory note from Disposable Products. In
addition, through June 30, 2002 we funded additional 12%
promissory notes of $1,138,000 from Disposable Products.



| |                    
| | -------------------
| | Fitness Quest, Inc.

On December 16, 1997, we funded a
$1.35 million commitment to invest with Brantley Venture
Partners III, L.P. in a $3.85 million preferred stock issue
for Fitness Quest, Inc. As a result, we purchased approximately
788,961 shares of Fitness Quest Series A 10% Convertible
Preferred Stock at $1.71 per share. Fitness Quest is a direct
marketing and distribution company. The proceeds were used by
Fitness Quest for a management buy-out of the company from its
previous owner, The Time Warner Music Group, a 100% wholly owned
subsidiary of Time Warner, Inc., and for other acquisitions.
Fitness Quest has been in the fitness promotional products
business since 1994. Fitness Quest operates in a highly
competitive industry and is dependent on the management talent
and efforts of key personnel for its success. We do not believe
that Fitness Quest is dependent on a single or small number of
customers, possesses significant intellectual property, or is
operating in an unusually regulated industry.

During 1997, Fitness Quest increased its revenue
and improved its operating margins and profits. After a complete
evaluation, our board of directors re-valued our Fitness Quest
investment to $5,440,000, resulting in a 1997 unrealized gain of
$4,090,000. This evaluation was based on price to earnings
ratios, cash flow multiples and other appropriate financial
measurements of similar private companies. In addition to the
above Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock, we funded
$1,751,300 to invest with Brantley Venture Partners III, L.P. in
a $3.5 million 10% senior subordinated debt investment in
Fitness Quest in 2000. In addition, we received a warrant to
purchase 181,172 shares of Fitness Quest common stock for $0.01
per share.

The proceeds of the most recent investment were
used to fund Fitness Quests working capital needs. During
the fourth quarter of 2000, we exchanged the senior subordinated
debt investment and related unpaid interest for 679,641 shares
of Fitness Quest common stock.

| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
| | Flight Options International, Inc. (Formerly
    Corporate Wings, Inc.)

On December 23, 1997, we funded
$2.1 million to invest with Brantley Venture Partners III,
L.P. in a $6.0 million preferred stock issue for Flight
Options International, Inc. Our investment consists of
approximately 2,576,000 shares of Flight Options Series A
8% Convertible Preferred Stock at $0.8152 per share. Flight
Options

##### Table of Contents



provides complete private air travel service
through the sale of fractional interests in pre-owned jet
aircraft. The proceeds of the transaction were used by Flight
Options to continue to execute an acquisition strategy. We
believe Flight Options is one of the top five providers of
fractional interests in aircraft in the United States, a highly
competitive industry and is dependent on the management talent
and efforts of key personnel for its success. Flight Options is
subject to certain regulations of the Federal Aviation
Administration. We do not believe it is dependent on a single or
small number of customers or possesses significant intellectual
property.


On December 29, 1998, we completed a second
private equity investment in Flight Options. In this investment,
we purchased $962,500 of a $5.5 million preferred stock
transaction led by The Provident Bank. Our purchase represents
approximately 260,135 shares of Class A 8% Convertible
Preferred Stock at $3.70 per share. The proceeds were used by
Flight Options to fund the expansion of its fractional ownership
program and to continue to execute its acquisition strategy.
During 1998, Flight Options completed the acquisition of Miller
Aviation. Based upon the price of this subsequent financing and
the operating performance of Flight Options during 1998, the
fair value of our original investment was increased to
$9,531,760, resulting in an unrealized gain of $7,431,760. This
valuation was based on the $3.70 per share price negotiated by
The Provident Bank and was approved by our board of directors.

On August 31, 1999, Flight Options sold
$20 million of Series B 8% Preferred Stock to a third
party private equity group at $4.365 per share. Consistent with
our investment valuation guidelines, this transaction resulted
in a valuation increase on our Flight Options investment of
$1,886,030 or $0.50 per share.

On July 11, 2000, we guaranteed a portion of
Flight Options third-party borrowings. As a result, we
were issued a warrant to purchase 36,000 shares of Flight
Options common stock at a price of $0.01 per share. Our
management believes, based on the current facts and
circumstances and Flight Options financial position, that
the likelihood of a payment pursuant to such guarantee is
remote. This guarantee was terminated prior to December 12,
2000.

On December 12, 2000 we purchased 469,925
shares of Flight Options Class C 8% Preferred Stock at
$5.32 per share for a total investment of $2.5 million. The
proceeds of the transaction were used by Flight Options to fund
the continued expansion of its fractional ownership program.

On June 30, 2001, Flight Options received
offers from institutional investors to purchase convertible
preferred stock or subordinated debt securities of Flight
Options which support the valuation used to complete the
December 12, 2000 Class C 8% Preferred Stock
transaction described in the preceding paragraph. As a result,
and consistent with our investment valuation guidelines, our
board of directors approved a valuation increase on the Flight
Options investment which resulted in our reporting an unrealized
gain of $2,742,889 or $0.72 per share for the quarter ended
June 30, 2001.

On December 21, 2001, Flight Options, Inc.
and Raytheon Travel Air, a Wichita, Kansas-based unit of
Raytheon Company, a Lexington, Mass. based defense contractor,
agreed to combine operations into one fractional aircraft
ownership program to be known as Flight Options. Under the terms
of the transaction, Flight Options, Inc. will hold 50.1%
ownership of the new business with Raytheon holding 49.9%. The
transaction was completed during the quarter ended
March 31, 2002.

As a result of the transaction described above,
our board of directors met to review the terms of the
transaction including, among other things, a valuation review
prepared by an investment banking firm working on the
transaction. Consistent with our valuation guidelines, the board
used a private market method to value our investment in Flight
Options, Inc. and approved an increase in the value of our
investment in Flight Options, Inc. to $32.5 million. At
June 30, 2002, the financial statement value of our
investment in Flight Options represents an increase of more than
484% from its original purchase price. The commentary above
reflects a four-for-one stock split executed in 2000. All share
and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect such stock
split.

| | Health Care Solutions, Inc.

On September 30, 1997, we funded a
$1.5 million convertible junior subordinated promissory
note facility for Health Care Solutions, Inc. Health Care
Solutions is an acquisition strategy company in the home
healthcare services market with a strong presence in the Midwest
and Great Lakes regions. The terms of the notes called for an
18% interest rate per annum during the first year and 12% per
annum thereafter, with final maturity two years from the
closing. After the first year, the notes were convertible into
common stock at a price of $3.50 per share.

##### Table of Contents



In connection with our commitment to provide this
facility, we received warrants to purchase up to $450,000 of
common stock valued at an exercise price of 10% of an initial
public offering price completed during the term of the notes, or
at $3.50 per share should the warrants be exercised other than
in connection with an initial public offering. The warrants are
currently exercisable. The proceeds of the notes were used by
Health Care Solutions to help finance acquisitions.


In 2000, Health Care Solutions completed a
re-capitalization plan, including a two-for-one reverse stock
split. As a result, we agreed to exchange our convertible junior
subordinated promissory note and accrued interest thereon for
246,994 shares of Series C 8% Convertible Preferred Stock
at an exchange rate of $7.50 per share. The warrants to purchase
up to $450,000 of common stock at an exercise price of 10% of an
initial public offering price or at $3.50 per share remain
outstanding and have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock
split.

In addition to the above Series C 8%
Convertible Preferred Stock, we funded $500,000 and $299,000 12%
Convertible Subordinated Notes from Health Care Solutions in
2000. As part of this transaction, we received a warrant to
purchase up to $50,000 of Health Care Solutions common stock at
an exercise price equal to the lower of the price determined by
an initial public offering or $7.50 per share. On March 7,
2001, we agreed to exchange the $500,000 Convertible
Subordinated Note for 71,880 shares of Series D Convertible
Preferred Stock. On January 29, 2002, we funded a
$1,250,000 12% Convertible Subordinated Note from Health Care
Solutions and On November 12, 2000 we funded a $299,00012%
Convertible Subordinated Note from Health Care Solutions.

On July 13, 2000, we funded a
$2.1 million commitment to invest with Brantley Partners
IV, L.P. in a $8.5 million preferred stock issue of The
Holland Group, Inc. The Holland Group is a provider of temporary
staffing and human resource management services that currently
operates 35 branches in five states. In this transaction, we
purchased 282,530 shares of The Holland Groups
Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock. In
February 2002 we purchased a $50,000 12% convertible
subordinated note from The Holland Group.

| | National Rehab Partners, Inc.

On August 10, 1999, we funded
$1.4 million of a $1.5 million commitment to invest
with Brantley Partners IV, L.P. and a third party equity group
in a $12.0 million preferred stock issue for National Rehab
Partners, Inc. Pursuant to this commitment, we purchased
2.2 million shares of Class A 8% Convertible Preferred
Stock. The proceeds of this transaction were used to complete
the acquisition of a group of rehabilitation management service
providers. The remainder of the commitment will be funded upon
the successful closing of additional acquisitions. National
Rehab Partners is a Brentwood, Tennessee rehabilitation
management service company providing rehabilitation services
through acute care hospitals and hospital systems throughout the
United States. National Rehab Partners is the only national
rehabilitation company focused exclusively on helping hospitals
develop their outpatient rehabilitation services.

On January 10, 2001, we funded a $26,126 10%
promissory note from National Rehab Partners. On June 13,
2001, the $26,126 note and the related accrued interest were
cancelled and replaced with a $27,228 10% promissory note.

| | Pediatric Physicians Alliance, Inc.

On January 28, 1999, we funded a
$3.2 million commitment to invest with Brantley Venture
Partners III, L.P. in a $7.9 million preferred stock issue
for Pediatric Physicians Alliance, Inc. Pursuant to our
commitment, we purchased 793,000 shares of Class A-2 10%
Convertible Preferred Stock. Pediatric Physicians Alliance is a
physician practice management company that develops integrated
pediatric networks of care. Their objective is to develop the
leading physician-based integrated pediatric organization in the
United States. Pediatric Physicians Alliance is dependent on the
management talent and effort of key personnel for its success in
this highly competitive industry. We do not believe it is
dependent on a single or small number of customers, possesses
significant intellectual property or that it is subject to
significant regulations. The proceeds of the transaction were
used to complete the acquisition of a number of physician
practices.

In addition to the above Class A-2 10%

| | Value Creation Partners, Inc.

On June 14, 2000, we completed a
$2.1 million commitment to invest with Brantley Partners
IV, L.P. and several other private equity investors in a
$23.8 million preferred stock issue for Value Creation
Partners, Inc. Pursuant to this commitment, we purchased
approximately 35,000 shares and 269,989 shares of 8% Convertible
Preferred Stock at $5.00 and $7.30 per share, respectively.
Value Creation Partners is an acquisition strategy company in
the food industry. The proceeds of the transaction were used to
complete the acquisition of Best Brands, Inc., one of the six
largest manufacturers and distributors of a complete line of
premium ingredients, mixes and products, including equipment,
for all segments of the baking industry. Their products are sold
primarily to retail bakeries, bakery distributors, supermarket
in-store bakeries, food wholesalers and food service
establishments.

Impact of Inflation

We do not believe that our business is materially
affected by inflation, other than the impact that inflation may
have on the securities markets, the valuations of business
enterprises and the relationship of such valuations to
underlying earnings, all of which will influence the value of
our investments.

Recent Developments

The Company received notice from the SEC Staff as
part of a routine examination of the Company that Brantley
Capital Management, LLC (BCM), the Companys
investment adviser is not properly registered under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940. BCM inadvertently failed to
maintain its registration as a registered investment adviser
under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. BCM has filed the
documentation to register as an investment adviser, a process
that generally takes 45 days or more. There can be no
assurance that BCM can become registered as an investment
adviser, or if it can, the timeframe for such registration, or
the impact, if any, of its failure to have been registered.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements

Information contained in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking
statements which can be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology such as may,
will, expect, intend,
anticipate, estimate or
continue or the negative thereof or other variations
or similar words or phrases. The matters described throughout
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in any exhibits of
which this Quarterly Report is a part constitute cautionary
statements identifying important factors with respect to any
such forward-looking statements, including certain risks and
uncertainties, that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in such forward-looking statements.

|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------
|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
    Market Risk

We invest in small and medium-sized companies,
and our investments are considered speculative in nature. Our
investments often include securities that are subject to legal
or contractual restrictions on resale that adversely affect the
liquidity and marketability of such securities. As a result, we
are subject to risk of loss which may prevent our stockholders
from achieving price appreciation and dividend distributions.

The portion of our portfolio consisting of
investments in private companies is also subject to valuation
risk. We value our privately held investments based on a
determination of their fair value made in good faith by our
board of directors on a quarterly basis in accordance with our
established guidelines. In the absence of a readily
ascertainable market value, the estimated values of our
investments may differ significantly from the values that would
exist if a ready market for these securities existed. Any
changes in valuation are recorded in our consolidated statements
of operations as Net unrealized gain (loss) on
investments.

We consider the management of equity price risk
essential to conducting our business and maintaining our
profitability. A portion of our portfolio consists of
investments in private companies. We anticipate no impact on
these investments from modest changes in public market equity
prices. However, should significant changes in market prices
occur, there could be a long-term effect on valuations of
private companies, which could affect the carrying value and the
amount and timing of gains realized on these investments. This
could also effect our ability to generate cash through the sale
of private equity investments, since their may not be realistic
initial public offering opportunities. A portion of our
investment portfolio also consists of shares of common stock of
small-capitalization public companies. These investments are
directly exposed to market price risk.

b. Reports on Form 8-K

A Form 8-K was filed on June 11, 2002 which
announced that it had selected KPMG LLP to replace Arthur
Andersen LLP as the Companys independent accountants. We
no longer engaged Arthur Andersen LLP as its independent
accountants effective upon completion of the December 31,
2001 audit and the March 31, 2002 quarterly review. The
decision to change accountants was approved by our Audit
Committee and Board of Directors and will be submitted for
ratification by our stockholders.
