Correct structure of compound tetraiodine nonoxide

I have a confusion about the correct structure of tetraiodine nonoxide. I came to know about it while reading the equation :

$$\ce{6 I2 (dry) + 11 O3 -> 3I4O9 + 3O2 }$$

Now again I saw the equation :

$$\ce{ I4O9 <=>I^3+(IO3^-)3}$$

Now this equation and this is structures in chemistry stack exchange make me to understand that ($\ce{I4O9}$) has the following structure:

But when I saw the following structure (shown below 👇🏻)on Wikipedia I have a doubt about that which structure is correct:

I will feel very helpful if anyone of you help me to know about that which all the following structure of this compound is correct. Thank you.
