Assumptions Used in Determining Fair Value of Warrants

The Company issued the 2022 Warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 13,813,912 shares of common stock in connection with the 2022 Private Placement (see Note 11) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 282,809 shares of common stock in connection with a private placement on December 8, 2020 (the “2020 Warrants”) (see Note 11). The Company accounted for the 2022 Warrants and 2020 Warrants as liabilities. The Company recorded the fair value of these warrants upon issuance using the Black-Scholes valuation model and is required to revalue these warrants at each reporting date with any changes in fair value recorded on the Company's statement of operations. The valuation of the 2022 Warrants and 2020 Warrants is considered under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and influenced by the fair value of the underlying common stock of the Company.

A summary of the Black Scholes pricing model assumptions used to record the fair value of the Warrants is as follows:


	June 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Stock price	$	3.15		$	3.59
Average risk-free interest rate		4.28	%		4.02	%
Dividend yield		—			—
Average expected life (in years)		4.17			4.67
Average expected volatility		86.95	%		86.79	%
