The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value. The gross holding gains and fair value of held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, are as follows:

					Gross
					Holding
	Held-To-Maturity	Level	Amortized Cost		Gain (loss)		Fair Value

The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

		June 30,		December 31,
Description	Level	2022		2021
Liabilities:
Derivative Liability – Public Warrants	1	$	1,794,000	$	11,730,000
Derivative Liability – Private Placement Warrants	2	$	1,274,000	$	8,330,000
Convertible Note – related party	3	$	2,382,292	$	1,934,656
Forward Purchase Agreement	3	$	4,669,749	$	—

As of March 23, 2021 (closing date of the Initial Public Offering), the Warrants were initially valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model for the Public Warrants and a Modified Black Scholes model for the Private Placement Warrants, which are considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurements. The model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Warrants is the expected volatility of the common stock. The expected volatility as of March 23, 2021 was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target. Significant increases (decreases) in the expected volatility in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the close price of the Public Warrant price was used as the fair value as of each relevant date. The measurement of the Public Warrants after the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units was classified as Level 1 due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market. The subsequent measurements of the Private Placement Warrants after the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units are classified as Level 2 due to the use of an observable market quote for a similar asset in an active market. There were no transfers between level 1, 2 or 3 at June 30, 2022.The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $18,906,000. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 2 fair value measurement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $13,426,000.

At June 30, 2022, the Convertible Promissory Note was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The Monte Carlo simulation model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Convertible Promissory Note is the expected volatility of the common stock, which underlines the price of warrants into which the Convertible Promissory Note may be converted into. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date and loan withdrawal date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the loan as of June 30, 2022, was $2,382,292.00, which resulted in a change in fair value of the Convertible Promissory Note of $112,747.00 recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The fair value of the loan as of December 31, 2021, was $1,934,656.
