of Rule&nbsp;3a-1 under the Investment Company Act, which we believe is the correct treatment of such assets, and, as such, we satisfy
Rule&nbsp;3a-1&rsquo;s 45% asset test described above as of December&nbsp;31, 2023. To our knowledge no court, and neither the SEC nor

executive officers and directors are substantially involved in our internet-related business activities and none of them devotes significant
