FAIR VALUE

FASB guidance on fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements for our financial assets and liabilities, as well as for other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated financial statements.
FASB guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2—Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; and
Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions and best estimate of what inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Common Stock Warrant Liability
Our issued and outstanding warrants to purchase common stock do not qualify to be treated as equity, and accordingly are recorded as a liability. The Common Stock Warrant Liability represents the fair value of the 11.4 million warrants issued in February 2012. We are required to record these instruments at fair value at each reporting date and changes are recorded as a non-cash adjustment to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our Statement of Operations. Management does not believe that this liability will be settled by a use of cash.
The Common Stock Warrant Liability is considered a Level 3 financial instrument and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation. This method is well suited to value options with non-standard features, such as anti-dilution protection. A Monte Carlo simulation model uses repeated random sampling to simulate significant uncertainty in inputs. Assumptions and inputs used in the valuation of the common stock warrants are broken down into four sections: Static Business Inputs; Static Technical Inputs; Simulated Business Inputs: and Simulated Technical Inputs.
Static Business Inputs include: Our equity value, which was estimated using our stock price of $0.61 as of December 31, 2012; the amount of the down-round financing, the timing of the down-round financing, the expected exercise period of 4.10 years from the valuation date and the fact that no other potential fundamental transactions are expected during the term of the common stock warrants.
Static Technical Inputs include: volatility of 57.5% and the risk-free interest rate of 0.63% based on the 4.5-year U.S. Treasury yield interpolated from the 3 year and 5 year U.S. Treasury bonds.
Simulated Business Inputs include: the probability of down-round financing which was estimated to be 10% for simulated equity values below the down-round financing cut-off point.
Simulated Technical Inputs include: our equity value in periods 1-10 follows a geometric Brownian motion and is simulated over 10 independent six-month periods; a down-round financing event was randomly simulated in an iteration based on the 10% discrete probability of a down-round financing for those iterations where our simulated equity value at the expected timing of down-round financing was below the down-round financing cut-off point.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the changes in the fair value of the liability measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) was comprised of the following:

Preferred Stock Warrant Liability and Conversion Feature
Prior to November 2011, we were required to record our 5.2 million of preferred stock warrants and the preferred stock's conversion feature at their respective fair values at each reporting date and changes were recorded as an adjustment to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings were reported in other income (expense) in our Statement of Operations.
Due to a change in terms we are no longer required to recognize the preferred stock warrant and preferred stock conversion feature as liabilities. They were reclassified into stockholders' equity as of the date of the amended agreement.
The preferred stock warrant liability and preferred stock conversion feature were considered Level 3 financial instruments and were valued using the Black-Scholes call option pricing formula, which approximates a binomial model for the preferred stock conversion feature. This method is among the most common and widely used valuation approaches for call options. The model relates an option's value to five variables: the current price of the underlying asset, the strike price of the option, the time to expiration or exercise of the option, a risk free interest rate, and the volatility of the underlying asset.
The following assumptions were used in the November 8, 2011 valuation of the preferred stock conversion feature: the closing share price of our common stock on November 8, 2011 discounted 15% due to the lack of marketability and liquidity, an exercise price of $0.39, expected term of 4.00 years, risk-free interest rate of 0.65% based on a linear interpolation of 3 year and five year U.S. Treasury rates and volatility of 50%.
The following assumptions were used in the November 8, 2011 valuation of the preferred stock warrants: an exercise price of $2.32, expected term of 1.0 years, risk-free interest rate of 0.25% based on a one year U.S. Treasury and volatility of 50%.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the changes in the fair value of the liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were comprised of the following:
