The taxpayer must ALLOCATE the initial cost among the components he received. It is no different if the warrants expired or not. Each component must be allocated a price. If you sold the common stock for instance, you'd need to know what was the proper allocation for its cost.

Their is an IRS procedure for doing this, but I don't have it available to me here. You might approximate it by getting the Market Value of the tradeable portions and allocate the remainder to the non-trading portions.
