IRS990/Description0MDLF provides loan financing by way of "program related investments" (PRIs), that allow non-profits to make investments in firms whose work will further their charitable mission. MDLF maintains a segregated pool of funds from which it makes loans and other PRIs, loan repayments are recycled through the pool and loaned out repeatedly. With every PRI, MDLF provides customized training and technical assistance to its BENEFICIARIES, from the first stage of developing a business plan through to the final discharge of the loan. In addition, MDLF trains its borrowers and other media organizations in the use and transfer of Internet-based technology and its impact on the future development of media business. In determining whether to make a loan or other program-related investment, the Fund faces both political and legal risk. The Fund makes loans and other program-related investments in countries where political stability may be of concern. This type of risk is assessed before the Fund starts operations in a certain country. The legal risk may arise as a result of making loans and other program-related investments in countries with differing legal systems than those of the United States of America. Those systems are sometimes characterized by uncertainty and lack of independent legal institutions, including judiciary. The Fund's model loan contract was drafted by U.S. attorneys and the Fund has all loans reviewed by attorneys in the country of each borrower.

(MDLF) WAS ESTABLISHED TO PLACE PROGRAM RELATED INVESTMENTS (PRIS), PRIMARILY LOW-INTEREST LOANS, TO INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPERS, MAGAZINES, NEWS AGENCIES, RADIO AND TELEVISION STATIONS, AND INTERNET-BASED MEDIA OUTLETS IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD. MDLF OFFERS PRIS TO WORTHY INDEPENDENT MEDIA ORGANIZATIONS DEVOTED AND PERSISTENT IN PROMOTING AND EXERCISING THE PRINCIPLES OF FREE, INDEPENDENT AND RESPONSIBLE PRESS.

IRS990ScheduleA/GeneralExplanation0Media Development Loan Fund (MDLF) is a mission-driven investment fund for independent news outlets in countries with a history of media oppression. MDLF provides low-cost capital and technical know-how to help journalists in challenging environments build sustainable businesses around professional, responsible, quality journalism. MDLF depends on the generosity of large private foundations, governmental entities and the public at large to continue its important work. In recent years, the United States economy has experienced an economic downturn that has impacted all segments of the corporate and not-for-profit world. Charitable giving has diminished across the not-for-profit sector; as a result, organizations like MDLF that depend upon public support to thrive are suffering greatly. This has impacted the organization's ability to raise funds, to solicit contributions and to generate revenues to undertake exempt programs. MDLF is fortunate to have secured the patronage of one significant contributor, Open Society Institute, that has enabled it to weather the difficult economic times, leaving it with enough funds to support those programs that further its charitable mission. MDLF understands the need to meet the public support test. To that end, it is continually attempting to generate new sources of fundraising, both through broad donor appeals, targeted solicitations, and website exhortations. Internal Revenue Code Regulation 1.170A-9T lists several criteria that indicate facts and circumstances supporting an organization's continued public charity status despite not meeting the 33 1/3 support test. Those criteria are as follows: 1. Attraction of public support - in the past few years, MDLF has sought to expand its fundraising capabilities to generate greater public support. The organization's website now directly appeals to net users to invest in press freedom. Specifically, the webpage notes: It's easy to invest in MDLF's work, providing independent news businesses with the financing they need to hold governments to account, expose corruption and fight for justice for all. There are three ways to invest, depending on the financial returns you seek, the amount you would like to invest and where you are in the world. We can also accommodate special options on a case-by-case basis, and will be pleased to discuss your giving plans with you - send us an email or telephone us direct on +1 (212) 807 1304. These activities target prospective donors who support MDLF's mission and programs. 2. Percentage of financial support - the Foundation's public support percentage exceeds 28%. The higher the percentage of support above the 10 percent requirement of paragraph (f)(3)(i) of 1.170A-9T, the lesser will be the burden of establishing the publicly supported nature of the organization through other factors described in paragraph (f)(3), while the lower the percentage, the greater will be the burden. MDLF's support percentage is low because it receives a large percentage of its contributions from a private foundation. 3. Sources of Support - MDLF has historically received much of its support from governmental entities; due to tough economic times, the amounts of these donations has been significantly reduced. As the economy rebounds, the hope is that MDLF will see an increase in funding. 4. Representative Governing Body -MDLF has a governing body that is broadly represented by members of the community. Each of these factors are significant positive evidence of MDLF's publicly supported nature.
