Capital

from H&H Permanent capital of Harris & Harris Group invested alongside outside capital managed by

Harris & Harris Group.

Uncertain future for availability of government grants, contracts, loan guarantees.

Corporations have capital and need visibility and access to disruptive technologies in core and adjacent markets.

Number and size of venture capital firms investing in energy, healthcare and

electronics are decreasing, which reduces capital availability from these sources.

RIORITIES

FOR

2012

AND

EYOND

We currently believe Harris & Harris Group is well positioned to

grow its NAV and generate returns for shareholders through:

Liquidity Events:

•  Between 2012 and 2014, we believe our late-stage companies could

reach liquidity through IPOs or sales.

•  We believe more than 75 percent of our mid-stage companies could be

in a position to complete transactions that create liquidity for our investments in those companies.

Generating Predictable and Near-Term Income:

•  We are investigating opportunities to increase our venture debt

investment opportunities.

•  We are selling call options covered by our positions in publicly traded

portfolio companies.

Increasing Investable Assets Without Issuing Common Stock

Note: These projections are based on currently available information and the timelines for reaching and the percentages of our current portfolio companies that may reach liquidity events may differ materially in the future from these
