Not legal or investing advice. If you can find a counterparty willing to perform a forward contract with a non recourse instrument (you owe them nothing if the shares turn out to be worthless), that might be a transaction worth investigating, depending on how much of a discount you’re willing to take due to unmarketability of the securities and your time horizon (liquidity now vs liquidity later).

In current state, the securities are worthless (due to possible transfer restrictions). Your objective is to figure out how to make them worth something to someone.
