1.The fair value of the tax amortization benefit contingency is measured using an income approach based on the Company’s best estimate of the undiscounted cash payments to be made, with the current portion tax effected at 21.5% and the non-current portion tax effected at 21.5% due to the TCJA and discounted to present value utilizing an appropriate market discount rate.

2.The fair value of the contingent consideration related to the Tecnidex acquisition.

3.The derivative assets and liabilities relate to an interest rate derivative that is measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as interest rates, our own credit risks as well as an evaluation of the counterpart's' credit risks.

4.The fair value of the stock appreciation right was measured using a Black-Scholes pricing model during the year ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The fair value of phantom shares is based on the fair value of the Company's common stock. The fair value of performance based phantom shares was measured using a Monte Carlo pricing model. The valuation technique used did not change during the year ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 and no transfers out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the year ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2019, the Company evaluated the amount recorded under the Term Loan and determined that the fair value was approximately $345.0 million. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value.
