Sharing Services Convertible Note

 

The fair value of the Sharing Services Convertible Note under level 3 category as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was calculated using a Black-Scholes valuation model valued with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

  

September 30,

2021

  

December 31,

2020

 
         
Dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%
Expected volatility   113.63%   210.07%
Risk free interest rate   3.25%   0.13%
Contractual term (in years)   1.02    11.76 
Exercise price  $0.15   $0.15 

 

We assumed dividend yield rate is 0.00% in Sharing Services. The volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Sharing Services’ common stock. Risk-free interest rates were obtained from U.S. Treasury rates for the applicable periods.

 

Changes in the observable input values would likely cause material changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments. A significant increase (decrease) in this likelihood would result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement.
