PUBLIC AND PRIVATE WARRANTS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE WARRANTS
Prior to the Closing, Gores issued 6,900,000 Public Warrants and 4,450,000 Private Warrants. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments. The Warrants became exercisable on December 15, 2021 and will expire on July 22, 2026, which is five years after the Closing.

Redemption of Public Warrants
Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants for cash, in whole and not in part, upon not less than of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (“Redemption Period”) at a price of $0.01 per warrant, if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business day before we send the notice of redemption to the Public Warrant holders. If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, the Company will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis”, as described in the warrant agreement. The warrants holders have the right to exercise their outstanding warrants prior to the scheduled redemption date during the Redemption Period at $11.50 per share.
Commencing 90 days after the Public Warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants, in whole and not in part, for a price equal to a number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be determined based on a predefined rate based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of the Company’s Class A common stock. The “fair market value” of our Class A common stock shall mean the average last reported sale price of our common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Public Warrants upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder, if, and only if, the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share on the trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
The Private Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Warrants sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering, except that the Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Warrants (except to certain permitted transferees) until 30 days after the completion of the Merger. Additionally, the Private Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted
transferees. The Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable for cash so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.
The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 on August 19, 2021 related to the issuance of an aggregate of up to 11,350,000 shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, which was declared effective by the SEC on August 26, 2021. On December 15, 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all of Matterport’s Public Warrants that remained outstanding as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on January 14, 2022 (the “Redemption Date”) for a redemption price of $0.01 per warrant. The Public Warrants may be exercised by the holders thereof until 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date to purchase fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock underlying such warrants, at the exercise price of $11.50 per share. Any Public Warrants that remained unexercised at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date would be void and no longer exercisable, and the holders of those Public Warrants would be entitled to receive only the redemption price of $0.01 per warrant.
On January 14, 2022, the Public Warrants ceased trading on the Nasdaq Global Market. As of the Redemption Date of January 14, 2022, a total of 9.1 million shares of Common Stock were issued upon the exercise of 6.4 million Public Warrants and 2.7 million Private Warrants by the holders thereof at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, resulting in aggregate proceeds to Matterport of $104.4 million, including 7.1 million shares issued upon the exercise of Public Warrants and Private Warrants by the holders with a total proceeds of $76.6 million received during the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2.0 million shares issued upon the exercise of 2.0 million Public Warrants with a total proceeds of $27.8 million received during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The remaining 0.6 million unexercised and outstanding Public Warrants as of 5:00 p.m. January 14, 2022 New York City time were redeemed at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant and, as a result, no Public Warrants remained outstanding thereafter. Warrants to purchase Common Stock that were issued under the Warrant Agreement in a private placement simultaneously with the Company’s initial public offering and that are still held by the initial holders thereof or their permitted transferees were not subject to this redemption and remain outstanding as of June 30, 2022.
The following table summarizes the Public and Private Warrants activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 (in thousands):

The Public Warrants were classified as Level 1 because there was adequate trading volume to provide a reliable indication of value from the Closing Date to the Redemption Date. The Private Warrants were classified as Level 2, from the Closing Date until the Redemption Date, because the Private Warrants had similar terms and were subject to substantially the same redemption features as the Public Warrants. The fair value of the Private Warrants was deemed to be substantially the same as the fair value of the Public Warrants. Both the Public Warrants and the Private Warrants were valued at $2.00 per unit as of the Redemption Date.
Upon the ceasing of trading of the Public Warrants on the Redemption Date, the fair value measurement of Private Warrants transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 and the Company used a Black Scholes model to determine the fair value of the Private Warrants. The primary significant unobservable input used to evaluate the fair value measurement of the Company’s Private Warrants is the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. Significant increases (decreases) in the expected volatility in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. The Private Warrants were valued at $0.99 as of June 30, 2022.
The following table provides the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the Private Warrants as of June 30, 2022:
