−Removed: similar instruments in an active market.

−Removed: The Company utilizes the market approach in determining the fair value of
−Removed: these securities.

−Removed: In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815 Derivatives and Hedging , the Company has recorded derivative liabilities for certain stock
−Removed: warrants with variable exercise prices.
−Removed: Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value at inception and then are adjusted to reflect fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded as
−Removed: a component of other (income) expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
