(1)In accordance with ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820-10, our equity investment in PSLF and PTSF II is measured using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient for fair value in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for investment companies, and thus has not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. (2)We elected not to apply ASC 825-10 to the 2026 Notes, and the 2026 Notes-2 and thus the balance reported in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities represents the carrying value. (3)Our U.S. Treasury Bills are classified as Level 2, as they were valued by the pricing service who utilize broker-supplied prices.
