On January 2, 2013, iTV issued another convertible bond to the Company for cash in the principal amount of $5.0 million with a maturity date of December 31, 2013 (extended to December 31, 2015), which triggered a reassessment of the Company's previous cost method accounting for its investment in the preference shares. Due to the additional convertible bond investment, the preference shares of iTV Media owned by the Company now substantively participated in the risks and rewards of iTV Media, irrespective of the liquidation preferences, and were considered as in-substance common stock. Therefore, the Company concluded the equity method criteria had been met and the equity accounting commenced in the first quarter of 2013.
