The intrinsic value of outstanding warrants was $0.0 million and $23.8 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The following discussion provides details on the various types of outstanding warrants and the related relevant disclosures around each type.
Warrant derivative liability
During May 2019, the Company acquired 118,804 warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $23.40 (the "May Acquisitions Warrants"). These warrants included an option to settle in cash in the event of a change of control of the Company and a reset feature if the Company issues shares of common stock with a strike price below the exercise price of the warrants, which required the Company to record the warrants as a derivative liability. The Company calculates the fair value of the derivative liability through a Monte Carlo Model that values the warrants based upon a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.
During January 2020, the Company issued shares below the exercise price of the May Acquisitions Warrants. As such, the Company issued an additional 167,206 warrants on March 17, 2020 to certain of its warrant holders at an exercise price of $9.72 and modified the exercise price of the existing May Acquisitions Warrants to $9.72.
During June 2020, the Company issued common stock equivalents below the exercise price of the warrants issued on March 17, 2020. As such, the Company issued an additional 331,771 warrants to certain of its warrant holders at an exercise price of $4.50 and modified the exercise price of the existing warrants to $4.50.
During September 2020, the Company amended all of these warrants to eliminate certain anti-dilution rights, fix the number of shares of common stock purchasable under each warrant, and set the exercise price thereof at $3.90 per share. As such, the Company issued an additional 95,043 warrants to certain of its warrant holders at an exercise price of $3.90.
During the fourth quarter of 2020, holders exercised a total 281,282 warrants for which the Company issued shares of common stock. During December 2020, 418,721 of these warrants expired and an immaterial amount remained outstanding as of December 31, 2020, all of which expired during January 2021.
The following schedule shows the fair value of the warrant derivative liability as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the change in fair value during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

Series F warrant liability
During October 2020, the Company issued 7,233,855 warrants to purchase common stock in connection with the Series F Private Placement with an exercise price of $4.50 (the "Series F Warrants"). The warrants are exercisable commencing on the date of issuance and expire 72 months after the date of issuance. These warrants included a reset feature if the Company issued common stock, options, or convertible securities with a strike price below the exercise price of the warrants. Upon consummation of the Company's IPO on July 1, 2021, this reset feature no longer applies. During the second quarter of 2021, a Series F warrant holder exercised 83,334 warrants, resulting in the Company's receipt of approximately $0.4 million. Initially these warrants did not meet the definition of a derivative or the requirements to be considered equity; as such, the Company recorded these as a liability. Due to changes in certain terms of the warrant agreements in connection with the Company's IPO whereby the warrants did meet the requirements to be considered equity, the outstanding Series F warrants were reclassified to equity upon consummation of the IPO on July 1, 2021. See "Note 10 - Convertible preferred stock" for more information on Series F and see "Note 1 - Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies" for additional information on the Company's IPO.
The warrant liability was remeasured at fair value each reporting period and upon the Company's IPO and represented a Level 3 financial instrument. The Company calculates the fair value of the warrant liability through a Monte Carlo Model and a Black Scholes Option Model. The total value of the consideration received in connection with the Series F Private Placement was first allocated to the warrant liability at fair value, with the remainder allocated to the preferred stock, which led to a discount ascribed to the Series F Preferred Stock. Accordingly, the Company recorded a discount of $14.6 million on the Series F Preferred Stock by adjusting Additional paid-in capital.
The following schedule shows the fair value of the warrant liability upon issuance and the change in fair value during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

The Company received exercise notices for a total of 174,602 warrants, resulting in the Company’s receipt of approximately $1.3 million. The Company recognized the increase in the fair value of the modified warrants on the date of exercise of $0.2 million as a deemed dividend through Accumulated deficit with a corresponding increase in Additional paid-in capital. The remainder of the outstanding and unexercised May 2019 PIPE Warrants expired during May 2021.

On June 24, 2020, the warrants related to the November 2019 Notes, the Seller Notes and the ABG Notes were amended in connection with the issuance of the June 2020 Notes to lower the maximum exercise price applicable to these warrants from $30.00 to $25.50 per share. The decrease in the exercise price resulted in an increase to the fair value of the warrants of $0.1 million which was recognized in SG&A expense.
On June 24, 2020, the Company issued 83,334 warrants to a non-employee director and 83,334 warrants to a shareholder with an exercise price of $7.50 per share in connection with the June 2020 Notes (the “June 2020 Warrants”), which are exercisable commencing on the date of issuance and expire 84 months from the date of the consummation of an IPO, which occurred July 1, 2021.

Due to the discounted warrant exercise associated with the May 2019 PIPE warrants as discussed above, the down round provision on the January 2021 Warrants was triggered such that these warrants could be exercised at a price of $7.50 per share. The Company recognized the increase in the fair value of the modified warrants of $0.2 million as a deemed dividend through Accumulated deficit with a corresponding increase in Additional paid-in capital.
