FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT |  | NOTE 6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT The following table presents fair value information as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, for the Company’s assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. ​

Warrant Liability – Public Warrants |  | (a) | ​ | $ | 1,725,000 | ​ | $ | 1,173,000
Warrant Liability – Private Placement Warrants (b) |  | 3 | ​ | $ | 658,000 | ​ | $ | 639,200
Sponsor Loans |  | 3 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,000,000
(a) | Level 1 at December 31, 2023 and Level 2 at December 31, 2022
(b) | At December 31, 2023, 2,820,000 Private Placement Warrants subject to forfeiture have no value as there is an assumed 100% probability of forfeiture due to the proposed Business Combination.
As of December 31, 2023, cash held in the Trust Account was held in an interest-bearing demand deposit account and at December 31, 2022, investments held in Trust Account consisted of mutual funds that invest primarily in US government securities. Demand deposit accounts and mutual funds generally have a readily determinable fair value. Such investments in the Trust Account are presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value at the end the reporting period. The Company’s warrant liability for the Public Warrants is based on unadjusted quoted prices at the close of market. At December 31, 2022, there was insufficient trading volume for the Company’s Public Warrants to be classified as Level 1 and, as a result, were classified as Level 2. At December 31, 2023, the Company determined there was sufficient trading activity to classify its Public Warrants as Level 1. The fair value of the Company’s Private Placement Warrants (not subject to forfeiture) for all periods presented is based on a Black-Scholes-Merton model utilizing management judgment and pricing inputs from observable and unobservable markets with less volume and transaction frequency than active markets. In association with the Company’s Sponsor Support Agreement with GCT, the Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 2,820,000 Private Placement Warrants upon the consummation of the Business Combination. For those Private Placement Warrants that became subject to forfeiture, the Company used a probability-weighted scenario analysis to value the Private Placement Warrants (subject to forfeiture) as of December 31, 2023. The change in valuation models between December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was implemented as the probability-weighted scenario analysis better represents the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants that became subject to forfeiture during the year ended December 31, 2023. In association with the Company’s Sponsor Support Agreement with GCT, the Sponsor agreed to forgive all amounts outstanding under the Sponsor Loan upon the closing of the proposed Business Combination. The Company valued the Sponsor Loans using a bond plus call approach as of December 31, 2022. The bond plus call approach calculates the fair value of the Notes as the sum of (i) the fair value of the contractual cash flows of the Sponsor Loans absent the Conversion Option and (ii) the fair value of the Conversion Option which is determined using a risk-neutral framework based on the daily binomial lattice analysis. Upon forgiveness of the outstanding balance under the Sponsor Loans, the Company used a probability-weighted scenario analysis as of December 31, 2023. The change in valuation models between December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was implemented as the probability-weighted scenario analysis better represents the fair value of the Sponsor Loans that were modified during the year ended December 31, 2023. The inputs used to measure fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and the Sponsor Loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Significant deviations from these estimates and inputs could result in a material change in fair value. The following table sets forth the fair value and unpaid principal balance as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 for the Sponsor Loans. ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Liabilities: |  | Fair Value |  | Unpaid Principal Balance
December 31, 2023 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 6,900,000
December 31, 2022 | ​ | $ | 1,000,000 | ​ | $ | 6,900,000
​ The key inputs into the model for the Private Placement Warrants were as follows: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | December 31, | ​ | December 31, | ​
Input |  | 2023 |  | 2022 | ​
Common stock price | ​ | $ | 10.56 | ​ | $ | 10.19 | ​
Risk-free interest rate | ​ | ​ | 3.81 | % | ​ | 3.95 | %
Expected term in years | ​ |  | 5.25 | years | ​ | 5.36 | years
Expected volatility | ​ |  | 0.00 | % | ​ | 0.00 | %
Exercise price | ​ | $ | 11.50 | ​ | $ | 11.50 | ​
Warrant fair value | ​ | $ | 0.10 | ​ | $ | 0.07 | ​
​ To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in fair value of the beginning and ending balances for our financial instruments classified as Level 3: ​
