Derivative Obligations
 
Series A Warrants
Series A warrants to purchase

common shares were issued and vested during the year ended
June 30, 2016.
At the time of issuance, the Company determined that because such warrants can be settled for cash at the holders’ option in a future fundamental transaction they constituted a derivative liability. The Company has estimated the fair value of the derivative liability, using a Binomial Lattice Valuation Model and the following assumptions:

Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. Contractual term is based on remaining term of the respective warrants. The discount rate represents the yield on U.S. Treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the contractual term.
 
The Company recorded a gain (loss) of
$596,000
during the year ended
December 31, 2018,
$133,000
during the
six
months ended
December 31, 2017
and (
$60,000
) during the year ended
June 30, 2017,
representing the net change in the fair value of the derivative liability, which is presented as fair value change of derivative instruments, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
