The Renn Fund, Inc.

(the “Fund”)

On May 5, 2026, Peter Doyle, a

Co-Manager of the Fund, was appointed to the Board of Directors of Texas Pacific Land Corporation (“TPL”), a large holding

in the Fund. Mr. Doyle was also appointed to serve on the strategic acquisitions committee of TPL.

As part of Mr. Doyle’s appointment

to the Board of TPL, Horizon Kinetics Asset Management LLC, the investment adviser to the Fund, with its respective affiliates (collectively,

“Horizon”), entered into a Board Representative Agreement (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, TPL has

agreed to, among other things, nominate a designee of Horizon (the “HK Designee”) for election to the board of directors of

the Company (the “Board”), subject to the approval of the nominating and corporate governance committee of the Board, at the

Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2026 Annual Meeting”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Peter Doyle has

been selected as the HK Designee. Mr. Doyle will receive the standard compensation for non-employee directors of TPL, which is described

in the TPL Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 26, 2025. The foregoing

description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein.

https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001811074/000181107426000033/tpl-20260505.htm

In connection with the foregoing appointment, Mr.

Doyle will no longer have investment discretion over TPL in any client accounts, including the Fund. Such trading discretion will be

delegated to the other Co-Managers of the Fund.
