The shares of IRNT common stock were received by the Company as a result of the previously discussed Sponsor distribution. The fair value of these shares determined at the date of distribution represents the basis of these securities.

At December 31, 2021, the Company held 1,250,000 shares of IRNT common stock that were restricted from sale until early 2022. The fair value of these shares of restricted common stock was determined by applying a discount for lack of marketability to the publicly quoted market price of IRNT common stock at December 31, 2021. During the first quarter of 2022, the sale restrictions were released. The fair value of our IRNT securities at September 30, 2022 was determined based on their publicly quoted market price.

The Company executed derivatives transactions as part of its plan to minimize the economic risk of IRNT share price volatility to its IRNT holdings. The Company held put options, covering shares of IRNT common stock with a May 2022 expiration date, for 300,000 shares of IRNT common stock at December 31, 2021. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company delivered 50,000 shares against its IRNT put options. On May 5, 2022, the Company sold put options held at March 31, 2022 covering 250,000 shares of IRNT

common stock for $1,263,000. At September 30, 2022, the Company held put options, covering shares of IRNT common stock with a fourth quarter 2022 expiration date, for 100,500 IRNT shares.
