14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
Occasionally, the Company may be involved in claims and legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a provision for a liability when it believes that is both probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If these estimates and assumptions change or prove to be incorrect, it could have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Contingencies are inherently unpredictable, and the assessments of the value can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.
In April 2019 the principals of WeSecure (see Note 9) filed lawsuit in California Superior Court seeking damages for non-payment balance of sale of WeSecure assets totaling $25,000, unpaid consulting fees payable to the two principals through to September 2019 totaling $ $125,924.48, and labor code violations of $ $48,434.40 all totaling $199,358.88 plus attorney’s fees and damages.

16. INCOME TAXES
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10, “Income Taxes”, which requires the use of the liability method in the computation of income tax expense and the current and deferred income taxes payable (deferred tax liability) or benefit (deferred tax asset). Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The income tax expense (benefit) consisted of the following for the fiscal years ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019:
| | | | | | | |
| | February 29, 2020 | | February 28, 2019 | |
Total current | | $ | — | | $ | — | |
Total deferred | | | — | | | — | |
| | $ | — | | $ | — | |
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
The following is a reconciliation of the expected statutory federal income tax provision to the actual income tax benefit for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2020 (in thousands):

The Company has incurred losses since inception, therefore, the Company has no federal tax liability. Additionally there are limitations imposed by certain transactions which are deemed to be ownership changes which occurred in the Company on August 28, 2017. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carryforward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carryforward was approximately $6,694,000 at February 29, 2020 and $2,550,000 at February 28, 2019, that is available for carryforward for federal income tax purposes and begin to expire in 2030.
Although the Company has tax loss carry-forwards, there is uncertainty as to utilization prior to their expiration. Accordingly, the future income tax asset amounts have been fully reserved by a valuation allowance.
The Company has maintained a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets at February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019. A valuation allowance is required to be recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Since the Company cannot be assured of realizing the net deferred tax asset, a full valuation allowance has been provided.
The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions at February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019 that would affect its effective tax rate. The Company does not anticipate a significant change in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months. Because the Company is in a loss carryforward position, the Company is generally subject to US federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for all years for which a loss carryforward is available. If and when applicable, the Company will recognize interest and penalties as part of income tax expense.
During the fiscal years ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, the Company recognized no amounts related to tax interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and various state jurisdictions. The Company currently has no years under examination by any jurisdiction.
On August 28, 2017, the Company consummated a share exchange agreement whereby there was a change of control and any net operating losses up to the date of the transaction were forfeited.
The Company’s tax returns for the years ended February 29, 2020,and February 28, 2019, and 2018 are open for examination under Federal statute of limitations.

On April 22, 2020 the Company entered into a similar agreement as that described in Note 8 with the second investor (therein described) whereby the investor would pay up to $100,000 in exchange for a perpetual 1% royalty on the Company’s reported quarterly revenue. These royalty payments are to be made 90 days after the fiscal quarter with the first payment being due no later than July 1, 2020. If the royalty payments would deplete RAD’s available cash by more than 2.22%, the payment may be deferred. The investor has fully funded the $100,000 in April 2020.
On April 3, 2020 the Company entered into a loan agreement for cash proceeds of $27,697 ($40,000 CDN). The loan bears interest at 20% per annum, with interest payments commencing on the third month following the loan and then paid over the following 10 months. The loan matures on April 3, 2021. Should the loan and interest be unpaid at maturity a 10% (annual rate) penalty would apply on the unpaid balance for each day unpaid. By consent of all parties, the lender may convert balance into Class F shares at $6,739 USD per share at maturity.
On April 16, 2020 the Company entered into a loan agreement for $13,000 with cash proceeds of $9,150 and an original issue discount of $3,850. The loan bears interest at 15% per annum, and matures on April 16, 2021.

On May 22, 2020 the Company entered into a loan agreement for $85,000 with cash proceeds of $70,000 and an original issue discount of $15,000. The loan bears interest at 15% per annum, and matures on May 22, 2021.
On July 1, 2020 the Company entered into a similar agreement as that described in Note 8 with the first investor (therein described) whereby the investor would pay up to $800,000 in exchange for a perpetual 2.75% royalty on the Company’s reported quarterly revenue. These royalty payments are to be made 90 days after the fiscal quarter with the first payment being due no later than May 31, 2021. If the royalty payments would deplete RAD’s available cash by more than 20%, the payment may be deferred. The investor has agreed to pay 100,000 per month over an 8 month period with the first payment in July 2020 and the final payment no later than February 28, 2021. If the total investment turns out to be less than $800,000, this would not constitute a breach of the agreement, rather the royalty rate would be adjusted on a pro-rata basis.
On July 22, 2020 the board of directors passed a resolution whereby the sole director will return to the Company for cancellation 816 of his 1000 Series F preferred shares.
