The following table summarizes the change in fair value of the Level 3 liabilities for contingent consideration liabilities from acquisitions with significant unobservable inputs (in thousands):

The money market accounts are included in our cash and cash equivalents in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our money market assets are valued using quoted prices in active markets.

The contingent consideration liability consists of the potential earn-out payment related to our acquisition of 85% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of OpenEye on October 21, 2019. The earn-out payment is contingent on the satisfaction of certain calendar 2020 revenue targets and has a maximum potential payment of up to $11.0 million. We account for the contingent consideration using fair value and establish a liability for the future earn-out payment based on an estimation of revenue attributable to perpetual licenses and subscription licenses over the 2020 calendar year. The contingent consideration liability was valued with significant unobservable inputs, including the revenue volatility and the discount rate. As of October 21, 2019, the fair value of the liability was $2.8 million. At each reporting date until the payment date in 2021, we will remeasure the liability, using the same valuation approach. Changes in the fair value resulting from information that existed subsequent to the acquisition date are recorded in general and administrative expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the contingent consideration liability decreased $2.6 million from December 31, 2019 to less than $0.1 million, primarily due to a change to OpenEye's 2020 projected revenue. The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation as of September 30, 2020 included a revenue volatility of 64% and a discount rate of

2%. Selecting another revenue volatility or discount rate within an acceptable range would not result in a significant change to the fair value of the contingent consideration liability.

The contingent consideration liability was included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020, and included in other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 (see Note 12).

We monitor the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. We also monitor the value of the investments for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. No other-than-temporary impairments occurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.
