The Company has incurred research and development (“R&D”) expenses, a portion of which may qualify for tax credits. The Company has not conducted an R&D credit study to quantify the amount of credits and has not claimed an R&D credit on its federal tax returns filed except for $6,188 in 2007. The Company may conduct the study in future years and may establish the R&D credit carryforward for prior years. In such event, the net operating loss carryforward will be correspondingly reduced by the amount of the credit.
