NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities: Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC 320 “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheets and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. At March 31, 2021 and December 31,2020, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $9,533 and $5,563 in cash equivalents and $139,172,916 and $139,152,937 in U.S. Treasury Bills at amortized cost. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company did not withdraw any interest income from the Trust Account to pay its tax obligations. At March 31, 2021, there were 4,110,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding that were measured at fair value. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value. The gross holding gains and fair value of held-to-maturity securities at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are as follows:
The Company recognizes transfers into and out of the fair value levels at the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers into or out of the levels during the three months ended March 31, 2021 or 2020. The Company established the initial fair value for the private warrants on October 22, 2019, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, using a Binomial Lattice Model. The Company continues to classify the private warrants as Level 3 due to the use of unobservable inputs and continues to value the private warrants using a Binomial Lattice Model. The key inputs into the Binomial Lattice Model for the Private Placement Warrants were as follows at March 31, 2021:
On March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Private Placement Warrants were determined to be $0.55 and 0.25 and per warrant, respectively, for an aggregate value of $2.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The following table presents the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities:
