The Company also has available for regular federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2012 estimated net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards of approximately $167 million, before limitations which expire primarily in 2013 through 2032, if not previously utilized. This includes approximately $29.6 million in NOL’s associated with the Neutron acquisition. Following the issuance of the Company’s Common Stock in 2001 and the Neutron acquisition in 2012, the ability to utilize the NOL’s will be severely limited on an annual and aggregate basis. For this reason, and due to no expectation of profitable operations in the near future, the NOL has a full valuation allowance and is not shown as a deferred tax asset in the table above. The Company’s tax years ended 2006 to 2011 remain open to examination for Federal tax purposes.
