Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3), and its activities are not subject to income tax. Generally accepted accounting principles prescribe rules for the recognition, measurement, classification, and disclosure in the financial statements of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the organization's tax returns. Management has determined that the organization does not have any uncertain tax positions or associated unrecognized benefits that materially impact the financial statements or related disclosures. Since tax matters are subject to some degree of uncertainty, there can be no assurance that the organization's tax returns will not be challenged by the taxing authorities and that the organization will not be subject to additional tax, penalties, and interest as a result of such challenge.”

GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES PRESCRIBE RULES FOR THE RECOGNITION, MEASUREMENT, CLASSIFICATION, AND DISCLOSURE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN THE ORGANIZATION'S TAX RETURNS. MANAGEMENT HAS DETERMINED THAT THE ORGANIZATION DOES NOT HAVE ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS OR ASSOCIATED UNRECOGNIZED BENEFITS THAT MATERIALLY IMPACT THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR RELATED DISCLOSURES. SINCE TAX MATTERS ARE SUBJECT TO SOME DEGREE OF UNCERTAINTY, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE ORGANIZATION'S TAX RETURNS WILL NOT BE CHALLENGED BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES AND THAT THE ORGANIZATION WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL TAX, PENALTIES, AND INTEREST AS A RESULT OF SUCH CHALLENGE.
