PART X, LINE 2:

“The income taxes topic of the fasb asc clarifies accounting for uncertainty in income taxes reported in the financial statements. The interpretation provides criteria for assessment of individual tax positions and a process for recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. Tax positions are evaluated on whether they meet the "more likely than not" standard for sustainability upon examination by tax authorities. The credit union is a state-chartered credit union as defined in internal revenue code (irc) section 501(c)(14) and is exempt from federal taxation of income derived from the performance of activities directly related to its exempt purposes. However, irc section 511 imposes a tax on the unrelated business income (ubi) derived by state-chartered credit unions. As of december 31, 2015 and 2014, the credit union believes it did not engage in any unrelated business activities and therefore, does not have any uncertain tax positions. Beginning in march 2008, the internal revenue service (irs) released technical advice memorandums (tams) to specific state chartered credit unions specifying the revenue sources subject to unrelated business income tax (ubit). Ubit may also be subject to tax in certain states. Management has assessed the credit union's activities and any potential federal or state income tax liability and determined no liability exists from federal or state taxation of activities deemed to be unrelated to its exempt purpose. As such, the credit union has not filed tax returns for reporting ubit-related income for tax years subsequent to december 31, 2009. The irs and state, where applicable, have the ability to assess taxes, penalties and interest for years in which no tax return was filed. Currently, the 2014, 2013, and 2012 federal income tax years are open for examination by the irs. The filing years open for examination by the state, if applicable, may be equal to, greater than or less than the years open for examination by the irs. Management has determined that the financial impact, if any, of not filing ubit-related income tax returns in previous years would not be material to the credit union's financial statements for the years ended december 31, 2015, and 2014.”
