Interim Management Statement
For the three month period from 1 December 2010 to 28 February
2011
Change of Manager and Investment Policy
In line with its strategy for improving investment performance,
the Board appointed Maven Capital Partners as Manager with effect
from 10 February 2011. At the General Meeting held on 30 March
2011, Shareholders voted to change the Company's investment policy
to that set out in Part B of Section II of the Circular issued on 7
March 2011. The Company now aims to achieve long-term capital
appreciation and generate maintainable levels of income by
investing the majority of its funds in a diversified portfolio of
shares and securities in smaller, unquoted UK companies and
AIM/PLUS quoted companies which meet the criteria for VCT
qualifying investments and have strong growth potential.
Change of Company Name
As indicated in the Circular to Shareholders issued on 7 March,
and following the receipt of Shareholder approval for the change in
investment policy, the name of the Company has been changed to
Maven Income and Growth VCT 5 PLC with effect from 15 April
2011.

Market Background
Overall, conditions in the UK and global quoted markets remain
challenging. Investors and businesses are cautious about the
prospects for recovery, as they assess the likely medium-term
impact of the Government spending cuts and tax changes on
consumers.
High quality small businesses and their advisers face a
continued scarcity of finance from traditional sources, which means
that there are opportunities for generalist VCT managers to invest
in good quality businesses at attractive entry multiples. Following
the receipt of Shareholder approval for a change in investment
policy, the Board has now decided to reduce the Company's reliance
on AIM, by seeking to broaden the investment focus to include
later-stage private companies capable of generating considerably
higher yields than those available from AIM investments.
