<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During both the fiscal year and six month period ending September 30, 2007, the NAV of the Fund exceeded both its NBI benchmark and the S&amp;P 500 Index. In addition, during this period, the discount at which the Fund's shares trade increased. As of September 30, 2007 the Fund traded at a discount of 11.80% compared to a year earlier when the discount was 4.66%. Such widening of discount was observed in many other closed end funds during fiscal 2007, probably resulting from recent dynamics in the U.S. credit markets. Though we are unaware of any significant credit exposure in our portfolio, our Fund's discount may have been negatively affected by this general trend. The discount may have also been adversely affected by what we perceive as a recent trend in sentiment away from higher volatility investments. Our Fund typically exhibits greater volatility than the broad market indices.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During the twelve-month period ending September 30, 2007, a number of broad trends have been observed in the healthcare sector. In general, the biotechnology, managed care, pharmacy benefit manager, diagnostics and life science tool sub-sectors have been among the best performers during the twelve month period while the healthcare provider and small developing biotech sub-sectors have been among the weakest performers.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During the last twelve months, merger and acquisition activity has been a major theme in the healthcare sector in general and in the biotech sub-sector, particularly. The planned or completed acquisition of Fund holdings, such as MedImmune, Inc. and Cytyc </font></p>

<br clear="all" style="page-break-before:always;">
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">Corporation for example, has had positive effect on the NAV of the Fund. We believe that other acquisitions within the sector, including the acquisitions of Caremark Rx, Inc., Organon BioSciences N.V. and New River Pharmaceuticals Inc. by CVS Corporation, Schering-Plough Corporation and Shire Plc, respectively, have helped to create general market interest in healthcare.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">As always, specific clinical and marketing events, both positive and negative, have had significant apparent impact on interest in healthcare. The approval and rapid launch of Merck &amp; Co.'s Januvia has been impressive. On the other hand, the apparent failure to attain market adoption by Pfizer Inc./Nektar Therapeutics's inhaled insulin product, Exubera, has been a significant disappointment.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">We have also observed a general developing interest in technologies related to RNAi therapeutics and similar target-specific approaches. Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Isis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Sangamo Biosciences, Inc. are all relatively early stage companies developing technologies and/or products in this area of science. Most have exhibited significant increases in the price of their stock over the last year. Sirna Therapeutics, Inc., a company developing related technologies, was acquired by Merck &amp; Co., Inc. (Please note that regarding the above discussion of the companies mentioned, the Fund owned positions in Cytyc Corporation, Shire Plc and Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at fiscal year end.)</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During the report period the Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services (CMS) reimbursement for products marketed by a number of companies including the anemia treating drugs sold by Amgen, Inc., the largest component of the NBI index, came under great debate. CMS reimbursement of other products made by such companies as Sepracor Inc., Cephalon, Inc. and Endo Pharmaceuticals Holdings was also affected. Separately, there were a number of developments affecting the way Hepatitis C may be treated in the future. These developments have had material impact on Idenix Pharmaceuticals Inc., Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Schering-Plough Corporation, Human Genome Sciences, Inc. and others.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">Within the last year, several of our private venture companies have either attained public listing or have declared their intention to do so. In particular, Masimo Corporation has completed a very successful IPO and Cougar Biotechnology, Inc. completed a reverse merger which resulted in a public listing. Concentric Medical, Inc. and CardioNet, Inc. made S-1 filings with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), each declaring its intention to undertake an IPO.</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During the twelve-month period ending September 30, 2007, Align Technology, Inc., MedImmune, Inc., Zix Corporation, ACADIA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and Conor Medsystems, Inc. produced the greatest positive impact on the Fund's NAV. Note that ACADIA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Conor Medsystems, Inc. and Zix Corporation were originally restricted investments. Amgen, Inc., Emageon, Inc., and Idenix Pharmaceuticals Inc. had the largest negative effect on Fund NAV among the public portfolio. Write downs of venture investments in Raven biotechnologies, Inc. and OmniSonics Medical Technologies, Inc. also had significant negative impact on NAV.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2007, within the public portfolio, the Fund established positions in several companies including Applera Corp.-Applied Biosystems Group, Becton, Dickinson, and Company, BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc., PerkinElmer, Inc. and Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. During the same twelve-month period the Fund exited its position in several companies including MedImmune, Inc., Natus Medical, Inc., Theravance, Inc., United Therapeutics Corp. and ZymoGenetics, Inc. The Fund exited its position in Conor Medsystems, Inc. when it was acquired by Johnson &amp; Johnson and also exited its position in Myogen, Inc. when it was acquired by Gilead Sciences, Inc.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">During the same twelve-month period, within the venture portfolio, the Fund established a position in Athersys, Inc., FlowCardia, Inc., Magellan Biosciences, Inc. and Xoft, Inc. and made follow on investments in Agensys, Inc., CardioNet, Inc., Ceres, Inc., Matritech Inc., TargeGen, Inc. and Xanthus Life Sciences, Inc. Also, Cougar Biotechnology, Inc. exited the Fund's venture portfolio when its registration statement was declared effective by the SEC and the company's shares became publicly traded. The Fund wrote off its venture position in Galileo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Therion Biologics Corporation.</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">H&amp;Q Life Sciences Investors (the Fund) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified closed-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is long-term capital appreciation through investment in life science companies (including biotechnology, pharmaceutical, diagnostics, managed healthcare and medical equipment, hospitals, healthcare information technology and services, devices and supplies) agriculture and environmental management. The Fund invests primarily in securities of public and private companies that are believed to have significant potential for above-average growth. The Fund was organized on February 20, 1992 and commenced operations on May 8, 1992.</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of certain estimates by management in determining the Fund's assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund, which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>New Accounting Pronouncements</i></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">In June 2006, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes &#151; an interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (FIN 48), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. FIN 48 sets forth a threshold for financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">Investments traded on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter market that are National Market System securities are valued at the last sale price or, lacking any sales, at the mean between the last bid and asked prices.

The fair value of venture capital and other restricted securities is determined in good faith by the Trustees. However, because of the uncertainty of fair valuations these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these securities existed, and the differences could be material. Each such fair value determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors. Factors the Trustees consider may include (i) the existence of any contractual restrictions on the disposition of securities; (ii) information obtained from the issuer which may include an analysis of the company's financial statements, the company's products or intended markets or the company's technologies; and (iii) the price of a security negotiated at arm's length in an issuer's completed subsequent round of financing. See note 3 below. Short-term investments with
 maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost.</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">At the July 20, 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, shareholders approved (i) the elimination of the restriction that prohibits the Fund from purchasing more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer (the 10% Restriction) and (ii) the amendment to the fundamental investment restriction on securities lending to increase the percentage of portfolio securities that may be on loan from 20% to 33</font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><sup>1</sup></font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">/</font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><sub>3</sub></font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">% of the Fund's net assets. For more information regarding these amendments, reference is made to the Fund's proxy statement dated May 16, 2007, which is available on the Fund's website and on the SEC's website at http://sec.
gov.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The Board of Trustees of the Fund has eliminated the non-fundamental policy restricting the Fund from investing for control (the Control Restriction) in order to enhance the Fund's ability to take advantage of investment opportunities and achieve its investment objective. The Board expects that the elimination of the Control Restriction will not have a significant effect upon the Fund's investment management and practices (by itself or together with the elimination of the 10% Restriction described above). The Fund may now make investments in any company with the objective of controlling or influencing the management and policies of a company, which could potentially make the Fund less diversified and more susceptible to declines in the value of the company's stock. The Adviser expects to seek a control position in private venture capital investments only when the Adviser believes that its knowledge and experience will be of significant benef
it to the portfolio company. The Adviser expects to seek control in public companies only occasionally and most often in companies with a small market capitalization. The Fund will continue to operate as a diversified investment company in compliance with the 1940 Act and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Options on Securities</i></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The Fund may purchase and sell (or write) put or call options on any security in which it is permitted to invest or on any security the change in value of which has a correlation with the changes in value of the Fund's portfolio securities.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Purchasing Put and Call Options.</i></font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"> By purchasing a call option on a security, the Fund will obtain the right to buy the securities underlying the option from its counterparty at a specified exercise price prior to or at the expiration of the option. The Fund would normally purchase call options in anticipation of an increase in the price of the security. Conversely, when the Fund purchases a put option on a security, the option gives the Fund the right to sell the securities underlying the option to its counterparty at the exercise price prior to or at the </font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">In case of either put or call options that it has purchased, if the option expires without being sold or exercised, the Fund will experience a loss in the amount of the option premium plus any related commissions.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Writing Put and Call Options.</i></font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"> When the Fund sells (writes) put and call options, it receives a premium as the writer of the option. By selling (writing) a call option, the Fund will obligate itself to sell the securities underlying the option to its counterparty at the specified exercise price prior to or at the expiration of the option if it is assigned an exercise notice. If the price of the underlying securities at expiration of the option is below the exercise price, the Fund will retain the full amount of the option premium. That amount, less the commission paid for the option, provides a partial hedge against any decline that may have occurred in the Fund's portfolio securities. During the term of the option, however, a covered call writer has, in return for the premium on the option, given up the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price
 of the option if the value of the underlying securities increases, but has retained the risk of loss should the price of the underlying security decline. Conversely, by selling (writing) a put option, the Fund obligates itself to buy the securities underlying the option from its counterparty at the exercise price prior to or at the expiration if it is assigned and exercise notice. Writing a put option constitutes a partial hedge against increasing prices of securities the Fund intends to purchase. If the price of the securities at the expiration of the option is higher than the exercise price, the Fund will retain the full amount of the option premium which provides a partial hedge against any increase in the price of securities which the Fund intends to purchase. A secured put writer, however, retains the risk of loss should the market value of the underlying security decline below the exercise price of the option, less the premium received on the sale of the option.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Closing Purchase or Sale Transactions.</i></font><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"> Prior to exercise or expiration, an option position can be terminated only by entering into a closing purchase or sale transaction. Closing purchase transactions are ordinarily effected to realize a profit on an outstanding call option, to prevent an underlying security from being called, to permit the sale of an underlying security or to enable another call option on the underlying security (with either a different exercise price or expiration date or both) to be written. If the Fund is not able to enter into a closing transaction or an offsetting position, it will be required to maintain the securities subject to the call, or the collateral underlying the put, even though it might not be advantageous to do so, until a closing transaction can be entered into or the option is exercised or expires.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The Fund's ability to close out its position as a writer of an option is dependent upon the existence of a liquid secondary market.

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">In managing short-term investments the Fund may from time to time enter into transactions in repurchase agreements. In a repurchase agreement, the Fund's custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the market value of which is at least equal to the principal, including accrued interest, of the repurchase transaction at all times. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Distribution Policy</i></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">Distributions will automatically be paid in newly issued shares of the Fund unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder. Pursuant to an SEC exemptive order, the Fund has implemented a fixed distribution policy that permits the Fund to make quarterly distributions at a rate of 2% of the Fund's net assets to shareholders of record. The Fund intends to use net realized capital gains when making quarterly distributions. This could result in a return of capital to shareholders if the amount of the distribution exceeds the Fund's net investment income and realized capital gains. It is anticipated that net realized capital gains in excess of the total distributed under this policy would be included in the December distribution. The Fund's distribution policy has been established by the Board of Trustees. The distribution policy may be changed by the Board of Trustees without Shareholder approval.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The current distribution policy is to declare distributions in stock. Distributions will automatically be paid in newly-issued full shares of the Fund plus cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder. The Fund's transfer agent delivers an election card and instructions to each registered shareholder in connection with each distribution. For shareholders other than registered shareholders with book entry accounts at the Fund's transfer agent, fractional shares will generally be settled in cash. The number of shares issued will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the distribution by the lower of net asset value or market value on the pricing date. If a shareholder elects to receive a distribution in cash, rather than in shares, the shareholder's relative ownership in the Fund will be reduced. The shares will be valued at the lower of the net asset value or market price on the pricing date.
 Distributions in stock will not relieve shareholders of any federal, state or local income taxes that may be payable on such distributions.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Federal Income Taxes</i></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its taxable income and its net realized capital gains, if any. Therefore, no Federal income or excise tax provision is required.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><i>Distributions</i></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The Fund records all distributions to shareholders from net investment income, if any, and realized gains on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in conformity with income tax regulations. Due to permanent book/tax differences in accounting for certain transactions, certain distributions may be treated as distributions from capital as opposed to distributions of net investment income or realized capital gains.</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2"><i>To the Trustees and Shareholders of H&amp;Q Life Sciences Investors:</i></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of H&amp;Q Life Sciences Investors (the "Fund"), including the schedule of investments, as of September 30, 2007, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights for the year ended September 30, 2003 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated November 23, 2003, expressed an unqualified opinion on the financial highlights.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant e
stimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2">In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of H&amp;Q Life Sciences Investors as of September 30, 2007, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.</font></p>

<p align="center"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="2"><b>INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT APPROVAL</b></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">The Investment Advisory Agreement (Advisory Agreement) between the Fund and the Adviser provides that the Advisory Agreement will continue in effect so long as its continuance is approved at least annually by (i) by the Trustees of the Fund or the shareholders by affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares and (ii) a majority of the Trustees of the Fund who are not interested persons, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">On April 12, 2007, the Board, and the independent Trustees voting separately, determined that the terms of the Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and approved the continuance of the Advisory Agreement as being in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. In making its determination, the Board considered materials that were specifically prepared by the Adviser at the request of the Board and Fund counsel for purposes of the contract review process, including comparisons of (i) the Fund's performance to its benchmark and to other investment companies, (ii) the Fund's expenses and expense ratios to those of a peer group of other investment companies, and (iii) the Adviser's profitability with respect to its services for the Fund to the profitability of other investment managers, as described below. The Trustees took into account that the Adviser presently provides investment management services only to the Fund and to H&amp;Q
 Life Sciences Investors and does not derive any benefit from its relationship with the Fund other than receipt of advisory fees pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. The Board also received and reviewed information throughout the year about portfolio performance, investment strategy, the portfolio management team and fees and expenses of the Fund.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">In approving the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered, among other things, the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser, the investment performance of the Fund and the Adviser, the costs of services provided and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates, and whether fee levels reflected economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows. The Board reviewed information about the foregoing factors and considered changes, if any, in such information since its previous approval. The Board also discussed the financial strength of the Adviser and the capability of the personnel of the Adviser, and specifically the strength and background of its investment analysts. The Board, together with its counsel, reviewed the statutory and regulatory requirements for approval and disclosure of investment advisory agreements. The Boar
d, including the independent Trustees, evaluated all of the foregoing and, considering all factors together, determined in the exercise of its business judgment that the continuance of the Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The following provides more detail on certain factors considered by the Trustees and the Board's conclusions with respect to each such factor:</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><u>The nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the investment adviser.</u> On a regular basis the Board considers the roles and responsibilities of the Adviser as a whole and for specific portfolio management, support and trading functions servicing the Fund. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund and concluded that they continue to be satisfied with the quality and value of the investment advisory services provided to the Fund by the Adviser. In particular, the Trustees noted the management style and discipline followed by the Adviser and the quality of the Adviser's research, trading, portfolio management and administrative personnel.</font></p>

<p align="center"><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1">(continued)</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><u>The investment performance of the Fund and Adviser.</u> On a regular basis the Board reviews performance information on the Fund. The Trustees reviewed performance information for the Fund over the past three-month period and the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 28 and discussed the Fund's strategy with the Adviser and concluded that they continue to be satisfied with the performance of the Fund and the Adviser. In particular the Trustees noted that although during the periods under review the annualized returns of the Fund's stock price and net asset value fluctuated relative to the performance of its benchmark (the NBI), in most cases the Fund outperformed its benchmark.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><u>The costs of services to be provided and profits to be realized by the investment adviser from the relationship with the Fund.</u> The Trustees considered the various services provided by the Adviser to the Fund and comparative information regarding the expenses and expense ratios of the Fund and peer groups of other investment companies. The Trustees noted that the Adviser's fees are within the range of fees presented in the comparative information and noted that a portion of the Fund's investment portfolio is invested in venture and restricted securities, a portfolio management service which can command higher management fees than those charged by the Adviser pursuant to the investment advisory agreement. The Trustees also noted the satisfactory nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund. Based on the information provided to and evaluated by the Trustees, the Board determined that the fees charged by 
the Adviser are within a reasonable range of fees as compared to fees charged by competitors and that the services provided by the Adviser and the amounts paid under the agreement are sufficiently favorable in comparison to the services rendered and fees charged by others for similar services to warrant a finding by the Trustees that the fees to be paid by the Fund are fair. The Trustees also considered financial information provided by the Adviser, including financial statements of the Adviser and a comparison of the Adviser's profitability with respect to its services for the Fund to the profitability of other investment managers based on publicly available information. After such review, the Trustees concluded that the fees charged by the Adviser are fair and reasonable in light of the quality and nature of the services provided by the Adviser and that the profitability of the Adviser's relationship with the Fund has not been excessive.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" size="1"><u>Whether fee levels reflect economies of scale and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows.</u> The Trustees noted that the investment advisory agreement provides for breakpoints in the advisory fees so that the Fund will share the benefits of the economies of scale that would inure to the Advisor as the Fund's assets increase. The Trustees considered the recent investment performance of the Fund and the management fees and breakpoints of other funds with similar objectives. The Trustees noted that the Adviser had made reductions to the fee schedule in 2006 to the levels described in financial statement footnote (3) and concluded that the current breakpoint schedule is satisfactory and fair given the asset size of the Fund, the investment strategies being pursued by the Adviser for the Fund and last year's adjustment to the management fee schedule.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">Substantive
Voting Decisions</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Adviser&#146;s substantive voting decisions turn on the particular facts and
circumstances of each proxy vote. The following is a list of common proxy vote
issues and the Adviser&#146;s standard considerations when determining how to vote
such proxies.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Routine
Matters/Corporate Administrative Items. After an initial review, the Adviser
generally votes with management on routine matters related to the operation of
the issuer that are not expected to have a significant economic impact on the
issuer and/or its shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Potential
for Major Economic Impact. The Adviser reviews and analyzes on a case-by-case
basis, non-routine proposals that are more likely to affect the structure and
operation of the issuer and to have a greater impact on the value of the
investment.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Corporate
Governance. The Adviser reviews and considers corporate governance issues
related to proxy matters and generally supports proposals that foster good
corporate governance practices.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Special
Interest Issues. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the long-term benefit to
shareholders of promoting corporate accountability and responsibility on social
issues; (ii)&nbsp;management&#146;s responsibility with respect to special interest
issues; (iii)&nbsp;any economic costs and restrictions on management; and
(iv)&nbsp;the responsibility of the Adviser to vote proxies for the greatest
long-term shareholder value.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Limitations
on Director Tenure and Retirement. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;a reasonable
retirement age for directors, <i>e.g.</i> 70 or 72;
(ii)&nbsp;the introduction of new perspectives on the board; and (iii)&nbsp;the
arbitrary nature of such limitations and the possibility of detracting from the
board&#146;s stability and continuity.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Directors&#146;
Minimum Stock Ownership. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the benefits of
additional vested interest; (ii)&nbsp;the ability of a director to serve a
company well regardless of the extent of his or her share ownership; and
(iii)&nbsp;the impact of limiting the number of persons qualified to be
directors.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">D&amp;O
Indemnification and Liability Protection. The Adviser considers:
(i)&nbsp;indemnifying directors for acts conducted in the normal course of
business; (ii)&nbsp;limiting liability for monetary damages for violating the
duty of care; (iii)&nbsp;expanding coverage beyond legal expenses to acts that
represent more serious violations of fiduciary obligation than carelessness (<i>e.g.</i> negligence); and (iv)&nbsp;providing expanded coverage
in cases when a director&#146;s legal defense was unsuccessful if the director was
found to have acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably
believed was in the best interests of the issuer.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Director
Nominations in Contested Elections. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;long-term
financial performance of the issuer relative to its industry;
(ii)&nbsp;management&#146;s track record; (iii)&nbsp;background to proxy contest;
(iv)&nbsp;qualifications of both slates of nominees; (v)&nbsp;evaluations of
what each side is offering shareholders as well as the likelihood that the
proposed objectives and goals can be met; and (vi)&nbsp;stock ownership
positions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Cumulative
Voting. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the ability of significant stockholders
to elect a director of their choosing; (ii)&nbsp;the ability of minority
shareholders to concentrate their support in favor of a director or directors
of their choosing; and (iii)&nbsp;the potential to limit the ability of
directors to work for all shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Classified
Boards. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;providing continuity;
(ii)&nbsp;promoting long-term planning; and (iii)&nbsp;guarding against unwanted
takeovers.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Poison
Pills. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the Adviser&#146;s position on supporting
proposals to require a shareholder vote on other shareholder rights plans;
(ii)&nbsp;ratifying or redeeming a poison pill in the interest of protecting
the value of the issuer; and (iii)&nbsp;other alternatives to prevent a
takeover at a price demonstrably below the true value of the issuer.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Fair
Price Provisions. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the vote required to approve
the proposed acquisition; (ii)&nbsp;the vote required to repeal the fair price
provision; (iii)&nbsp;the mechanism for determining fair price; and
(iv)&nbsp;whether these provisions are bundled with other anti-takeover
measures (<i>e.g.</i>, supermajority voting requirements)
that may entrench management and discourage attractive tender offers.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Equal
Access. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the opportunity for significant
shareholders of the issuer to evaluate and propose voting recommendations on
proxy proposals and director nominees, and to nominate candidates to the board;
and (ii)&nbsp;the added complexity and burden.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Charitable
Contributions. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the potential benefits to
shareholders; (ii)&nbsp;the potential to detract the issuer&#146;s resources from
more direct uses of increasing shareholder value; and (iii)&nbsp;the responsibility
of shareholders to make individual contributions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Stock
Authorizations: The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;the need for the increase;
(ii)&nbsp;the percentage increase with respect to the existing authorization;
(iii)&nbsp;voting rights of the stock; and (iv)&nbsp;overall capitalization
structures.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Preferred
Stock. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;whether the new class of preferred stock
has unspecified voting, conversion, dividend distribution, and other rights;
(ii)&nbsp;whether the issuer expressly states that the stock will not be used
as a takeover defense or carry superior voting rights; (iii)&nbsp;whether the
issuer specifies the voting, dividend, conversion, and other rights of such
stock and the terms of the preferred stock appear reasonable; and
(iv)&nbsp;whether the stated purpose is to raise capital or make acquisitions
in the normal course of business.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Director
Compensation. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;whether director shares are at
the same market risk as those of the shareholders; and (ii)&nbsp;how option
programs for outside directors compare with the standards of internal programs.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Golden
and Tin Parachutes. The Adviser considers: (i)&nbsp;whether they will be
submitted for shareholder approval; and (ii)&nbsp;the employees covered by the
plan and the quality of management.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Adviser may abstain from voting a proxy if it concludes that the effect on
shareholders&#146; economic interests or the value of the portfolio holding is
indeterminable or insignificant. The Adviser may abstain from voting a proxy if
it concludes that the cost of voting is disproportionate to the economic impact
the vote would have on the portfolio holdings. With respect to certain
privately held companies, the Adviser may not have the opportunity to vote or
may have a limitation on its ability to vote. For example, in certain cases a
company may be permitted by its charter or other governing documents to take
action without a shareholder meeting and with written consent of fewer than all
shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Proxy Committee identifies any potential conflicts of interest. Each potential
conflict must be addressed in a manner which will be in the best interest of
the Funds and their shareholders. If any potential conflict is identified the
Proxy Committee consults with the Adviser&#146;s CCO. Where conflicts of interest
arise between clients and the Adviser, the Adviser may convene an ad-hoc
committee to debate the conflict and to give a ruling on a preferred course of
action. If the ad-hoc committee determines that the Adviser has a conflict of
interest in any instance, the Adviser&#146;s CCO shall disclose the conflict to the
Board and seek voting instructions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Each
member of the portfolio management team may perform investment management
services for other accounts similar to those provided to the Registrant and the
investment action for each account may differ. The portfolio management team
may discover an investment opportunity that may be suitable for more than one
account. However, the investment opportunity may be limited so that all
accounts may not be able to fully participate or an investment opportunity
or&nbsp;investment allocation&nbsp;may be allocated to just one account or may be
allocated between accounts at different levels based on an investment decision
made by the investment team.&nbsp; The investment team may subsequently make investment decisions that
result in&nbsp;investment levels that make the accounts&nbsp;more
differentiated or, conversely, more closely&nbsp;or completely aligned.&nbsp;&nbsp;Such investment decisions may occur within a
day or two.&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, the investment adviser may receive
different compensation from each account. In that case, the portfolio
management team may have an incentive to direct investments to an account that
could result in higher fees for the investment adviser. The registrant has
adopted procedures designed to allocate investments fairly across multiple
accounts.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Additionally,
a portfolio manager may be perceived to have a conflict of interest if he has
other executive management responsibilities. In addition to managing the
Registrant and HQH, Dr. Omstead is the President of the investment adviser of
the Registrant. Dr. Omstead periodically discusses the amount of time he
allocates to each of his responsibilities with the Registrant&#146;s Board of
Trustees.</font></p>

a cash bonus, paid annually, which may be up to 60% of the team member&#146;s base
salary. Several factors affect discretionary compensation, which can vary by
team member and circumstances. The discretionary compensation component is
determined based on four factors including investment performance of accounts
managed by the team relative to an appropriate benchmark and/or peer funds,
performance of specific investments proposed by the individual, financial
performance of the investment adviser and a qualitative assessment of the
individual overall contribution to the investment team and to the investment
adviser. Discretionary compensation is evaluated annually after the completion
of the Registrant&#146;s fiscal year.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Board of Trustees of H&amp;Q Life Sciences Investors and H&amp;Q Healthcare
Investors (each, a &#147;Fund&#148;) has established this Code of Ethics (&#147;Code&#148;) in
accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated
thereunder. This Code does not supersede or otherwise affect the separate code
of ethics that the Fund and its investment adviser have adopted pursuant to
Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (&#147;1940 Act&#148;).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This
Code is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote: (i) honest and ethical
conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of
interest between personal and professional relationships; (ii) full, fair,
accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that
the Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;)
and in other public communications made by the Fund; (iii) compliance with
applicable governmental laws, rules, and regulations; (iv) the prompt internal
reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons; and
(v) accountability for adherence to the Code. The Code applies to the Fund&#146;s
President and Treasurer and Secretary (collectively, &#147;Covered Officers,&#148; each
of whom is set forth in Exhibit A).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund expects all Covered
Officers to adhere to the highest possible standards of honest and ethical
conduct. All Covered Officers are expected to handle actual or apparent
conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships in a
manner that is above reproach, and to place the interests of the Fund above
their own personal interests.</font></p>

Conflicts of Interest</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">All
Covered Officers should be scrupulous in avoiding a conflict of interest with
regard to the Fund&#146;s interests. A conflict of interest occurs when an
individual&#146;s private interest interferes in any way with the interests of the
Fund. This includes any specific situation or transaction that the Trustees of
the Fund who are not interested persons as defined in the 1940 Act, would
consider to create the appearance of a conflict of interest. A conflict
situation can arise when a Covered Officer takes actions or has interests that
may make it difficult to perform his or her work for the Fund objectively and
effectively. Conflicts of interest also arise when a Covered Officer, or a
member of his or her family, receives improper benefits as a result of his or her
position with the Fund, whether such benefits are received from the Fund or a
third party. Any conflict of interest that arises in a specific situation or
transaction must be disclosed by the Covered Officer and resolved before taking
any action.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Conflicts
of interest may not always be evident, and Covered Officers should consult with
the Funds&#146; Chief Compliance Officer or the Fund&#146;s legal counsel if they are
uncertain about any situation.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Examples
of possible conflicts of interest include:</font></p>

Employment or Activities</i>. Covered Officers may not engage in any outside
employment or activity that interferes with their performance or
responsibilities to the Fund or is otherwise in conflict with or prejudicial to
the Fund. A Covered Officer must disclose to the Funds&#146; Chief Compliance
Officer any outside employment or activity that may constitute a conflict of
interest and obtain the Funds&#146; Chief Compliance Officer&#146;s approval before

company, it is of critical importance that the Fund&#146;s public communications,
reports, and filings contain full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable
disclosure. Accordingly, Covered Officers are expected to consider it central
to their roles as officers of the Fund to promote full, fair, accurate, timely,

and in the documents that the Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;).</font></p>

necessary information to make the Fund&#146;s public reports, communications, and
SEC filings and submissions complete, fair, and understandable. The Fund
expects Covered Officers to take this responsibility very seriously and to
provide prompt and accurate answers to inquiries related to the Fund&#146;s public

Officers to comply with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the Fund&#146;s
operations and business. Covered Officers should seek guidance whenever they
are in doubt as to the applicability of any law, rule, or regulation, or
regarding any contemplated course of action. Covered Officers should also make
use of the various guidelines which the Fund and its service providers have
prepared on specific laws and regulations. If in doubt on a course of action, a
good guideline is &#147;always ask first, act later&#148; &#151; if you are unsure of what to
do in any situation, seek guidance before you act.</font></p>

Officer, Vice President (who is in charge of a principal policymaking
function), or any other person who performs similar policymaking functions for
the Fund. For the purpose of determining whether an &#147;implicit waiver&#148; has

the Covered Officer who has caused the material departure, the material
departure will not be considered to have been made known to an executive
