Income Taxes
INCOME TAXES
Our tax provision for the thirteen week period ended April 1, 2012 consisted primarily of taxes accrued in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. We continue to record a valuation allowance against a portion of our U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets as we do not believe it is more likely than not that we will be able to utilize the deferred tax assets in future periods.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits
During the thirteen week period ended April 1, 2012, unrecognized tax benefits increased primarily due to uncertainty surrounding permanent establishment and tax credits. There were no increases or decreases in prior unrecognized tax benefits resulting from settlements with taxing authorities or lapses of statutes of limitations during the periods. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense.
For our major tax jurisdictions, the following years were open for examination by the tax authorities as of April 1, 2012:
