&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 27pt; text-align: justify"&gt;A valuation allowance is recognized
if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. A valuation allowance is
used to offset the related income tax assets due to uncertainties of realizing the benefits of certain net operating loss and tax
credits. The valuation allowance, which reflects a 100% reserve for all years reported above, increased $300,000 from June 30,
2012 to June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards for federal tax purposes of approximately
$35,000,000. The loss carry-forwards, unless utilized, will expire from 2016 through 2033. With few exceptions, the Company is
no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 27pt; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 27pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limits
the ability to utilize net operating losses if a 50% change in ownership occurs over a three year period. Such limitation of the
net operating losses may have occurred which the Company has not fully analyzed at this time as the deferred tax asset is fully
reserved.&lt;/p&gt;
