A valuation allowance is established
if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Accordingly, a valuation
allowance was established in 2012 and 2011 for the full amount of the deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realization. Management
believes that based upon its projection of future taxable operating income for the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not
that the Company will not be able to realize the benefit of the deferred tax asset at August 31, 2012. The net change in the
valuation allowance during the year ended August 31, 2012 was a decrease of $12,000. The valuation allowance as
of August 31, 2012 was $722,000.
The amounts and corresponding expiration
dates of the Companys unused net operating loss carryforwards are shown in the following table as of August 31, 2012:

In accordance with certain provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 a change in ownership of greater than 50% percent of a corporation
within a three-year period will place an annual limitation on the corporations ability to utilize its existing tax benefit
carryforwards. Such a change in ownership may have occurred in connection with the private placement of securities. Additionally,
the Companys utilization of its tax benefit carryforwards may be restricted in the event of possible future changes in the
ownership of the Company from the exercise of options or other future issuances of common stock.
