The derivative warrants issued as part of the 2016 Offerings are valued using a probability-weighted Binomial model, while the derivative warrants issued as part of the 2017 Debt refinancing are valued using a Monte Carlo model. The derivative warrants issued in conjunction with the 2017 Offering were valued using a Black-Scholes model. The following tables summarize the assumptions used in computing the fair value of derivative warrants subject to fair value accounting at the date of issue or exercise during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, and at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
