Equity instruments issued in exchange for services rendered or to be rendered to us are accounted for in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation. Such instruments are evaluated to determine if they should be classified as liability or equity awards. For these awards, we estimate the fair value of the services rendered/to be rendered (i.e., the compensation cost to be recognized) based upon either (i) the grant date fair value of the equity instruments issued as determined using an option pricing model such as the BSM Model or (ii) the fair value of the liabilities incurred/settled. For the Advisory Warrants issued in the PIPE, we estimated the grant date fair value using the valuation inputs as of the grant date. For the AMA Pre-Funded Warrants and the GD Advisory Warrant issued in settlement of the Asset-based Fee and the Annual Advisory Fee, as defined in Note 17. Related Party Transactions, respectively, we determined the grant date fair value represented the amount of the liabilities settled. We recognize the expense immediately in our consolidated financial statements for services rendered at the time of issuance and for services not yet rendered, we recognize an asset and amortize the fair value of the services being rendered over the requisite service period.
