During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized $107,642 in amortization expense (2010 - $20,224). The Company periodically reviews its long lived assets to ensure that their carrying value does not exceed their fair market value. On September 11, 2011, the Company hired an independent specialist to value the patents based on a discounted cash flows model. The result of this report confirmed that the fair value of the patents exceeded their carrying value as of December 31, 2011.
