INCOME TAXES

NOTE 12- INCOME TAXES

The Company did not record any income tax expense due to the net loss during the years ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011. The actual tax benefit differs from the expected tax benefit computed by applying the combined United States corporate tax rate and the State of California tax rate of 40% to loss before income taxes as follows for the years ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011:

The following table summarizes the significant components of our deferred tax asset at February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011:

Net deferred tax asset	$	-		$	-

We recorded an allowance of 100% for deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of its realization.

At February 29, 2012, we had operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $331,000,000 for federal purposes, which expire through 2025, and $59,000,000 for state purposes, which expire through 2017.

We follow FASB ASC 740 related to uncertain tax positions. Under FASB ASC 740, the impact of an uncertain tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. At February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, we have no unrecognized tax benefits.

Our continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, we have no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and California. Our tax years for 2009 and forward are subject to examination by our tax authorities. We are not currently under examination by any tax authority.
