The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the deferred income tax assets for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, because it is not presently known whether future taxable income will be sufficient to utilize the loss carryforwards.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately $584,000 in tax loss carryforwards that can be utilized in future periods to reduce taxable income, and expire in the year 2032.

The Company did not identify any material uncertain tax positions. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties for unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company has filed income tax returns in the United States. All tax years are closed by expiration of the statute of limitations.
