13. Income Taxes

No provision for federal and state income taxes was required for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 due to the Company’s operating losses and increased deferred tax asset valuation allowance.  At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had unused net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $81,619,000 and $69,036,000, respectively, which expire at various dates through 2034.  Some of this amount may be subject to annual limitations under certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code related to “changes in ownership.” 

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the deferred tax assets related to the aforementioned carry-forwards have been fully offset by valuation allowances, because significant utilization of such amounts is not presently expected in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred tax assets and valuation allowances consist of:
