A $0.3 million and $0.2 million reserve was established as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, for the exposure in Europe. If the Company is able to eventually recognize these uncertain tax positions, all of the unrecognized benefit would reduce the Company’s effective tax rate. The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented below:

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $348.0 million for federal tax purposes and $1.2 million (tax effected) for state tax purposes. The majority of the federal net operating loss carry forwards were generated this year and can be carried forward indefinitely, the remainder will expire at various times from 2032 to 2037, and the state net operating loss carry forwards will expire at various times from 2026 to 2042. There is a $0.4 million valuation allowance for net operating losses in California that expire between 2034 and 2042 and a $0.1 million valuation allowance for net operating losses in Georgia that expire between 2032 and 2040. The Company’s ability to utilize the net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards in the future may be subject to restriction in the event of past or future ownership changes as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state tax law. Management believes that no valuation allowance is required on deferred tax assets related to federal net operating loss carry forwards, as it is more likely than not that all amounts are recoverable through future taxable income. The open tax years for federal and state tax purposes are from 2003-2020, respectively. It is the Company's intention to reinvest undistributed earnings of their wholly owned foreign operations and thereby indefinitely postpone their remittance. Accordingly, no provision has been made for foreign withholding taxes or U.S. Income taxes.
