(1) In accordance with ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820-10, our equity investment in PSSL and PTSF are measured using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient for fair value, and thus have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. (2) We elected not to apply the fair value option allowed by ASC 825-10 to the 2026 Notes, 2031 Asset-Backed Debt, 2036 Asset-Backed Debt, 2036-R Asset-Backed Debt, and 2037 Asset-Backed Debt and thus the balance reported in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities represents the carrying value, which approximates the fair value.
