Highlight of Business Operations:

On October 20, 2010, as part of a debt restructuring of one of its investments,

the Company exchanged approximately $13,231,000 in notes, convertible notes and

debt instruments that it held in Comstock Mining, Inc. ("Comstock" - OTCBB:

LODE)) for 13,231 shares ($1,000 stated value) of newly created 7 1/2% Series

A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "A-1 Preferred") of Comstock. Prior to the

exchange, those notes and convertible debt instruments had a carrying value of

$1,809,000, net of impairment adjustments. The Company accounted for the

transaction as an exchange of its debt securities and recorded the new

instruments (A-1 Preferred) received based on their fair value. The Company

estimated the fair value of the A-1 Preferred at $1,000 per share, which was

the stated value of the instrument, for a total of $13,231,000. The fair value

of the A-1 Preferred had a similar value to the Series B preferred stock

financing (stated value of $1,000 per share) by which Comstock concurrently

raised $35.7 million in new capital from other investors in October 2010. The

Company recorded an unrealized gain of $11,422,000 related to the preferred

stock received as part of the debt restructuring.



The Company had a net gain on marketable securities of $3,703,000 for the three

months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a net gain of $182,000 for the three

months ended December 31, 2009. For the three months ended December 31, 2010,

the Company had a net realized gain of $334,000 and a net unrealized gain of

$3,369,000. For the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company had a

net realized gain of $4,000,000 and net unrealized loss of $3,818,000. Gains

and losses on marketable securities may fluctuate significantly from period to

period in the future and could have a significant impact on the Company's

results of operations. However, the amount of gain or loss on marketable

securities for any given period may have no predictive value and variations in

amount from period to period may have no analytical value. For a more detailed

description of the composition of the Company's marketable securities please

see the Marketable Securities section below.



The Company may also invest, with the approval of the Securities Investment

Committee and other Company guidelines, in private investment equity funds and

other unlisted securities, such as convertible notes through private

placements. Those investments in non-marketable securities are carried at cost

on the Company's balance sheet as part of other investments, net of other than

temporary impairment losses. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had net

other investments of $17,871,000. On October 20, 2010, as part of a debt

restructuring of one of its investments, the Company exchanged approximately
