Form 990, Part VI, Line 11B
“An electronic copy of the draft 990 was provided to all board members and officers prior to its filing with the irs.

Or the foundation for personal gain to an individual, members of the individual's family, or other organizations with whom the individual is affiliated, to the actual or potential detriment of the uso, inc. Or the foundation. The board has established a policy with reference to conflicts of interest applicable to the board. Disclsoure of potential conflicts of interest are reviewed by the uso inc.'s ceo, cfo, and outside counsel. Any individuals that have a conflict of interest are prohibited from deliberations and voting on a transaction.”
Form 990, Part VI, Lines 15A and 15B
“The compensation is established by the USO, INC. Board of Governors after an independent, outside review of industry surveys, compensation studies and other data to ensure that executive compensation is within the range of that paid to comparable executives of comparable organizations for comparable services and therefore reasonable. These reviews are performed on a biannual basis by an independent outside consultant for the following positions: CEO, CFO, SVP Entertainment/Programs, SVP Operations, SVP Executive Office, SVP Development, SVP Marketing and Communications, SVP HR, and Chief of Staff. The last review was performed in 2012 for all positions listed and all positions' compensation was found to be within the range for comparable executives at comparable organizations.

Financial Statement Notes
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4
“The board designated portion of the endowment is restricted to assist the united service organizations, inc. ("uso, inc.") in delivering its programs and services for many years into the future. These board designated contributions and investment earnings are available to fund operations; however, contributions/earnings have not been spent to date. The restricted portion of the endowment is to be publicly held in perpetuity, with earnings available to assist the uso, inc. In delivering programs and services for many years into the future.”
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2
“PURSUANT TO GAAP, THE FOUNDATION IS AUDITED AND REPORTED IN THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE USO. THE FOLLOWING FOOTNOTE IS INCLUDED IN THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013. The USO is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986, as amended, as an organization described in IRC Section 501(c)(3). However, income generated from activities unrelated to the USO's exempt purpose is subject to tax under IRC Section 511. The USO did not have any material unrelated business income tax liability for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Therefore, no tax liability has been provided in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. US GAAP requires that a tax position be recognized or derecognized based on a "more likely than not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in the tax return. The USO does not believe its consolidated financial statements include any uncertain tax positions for the open tax years.”

IN DELIVERING ITS PROGRAMS AND SERVICES FOR MANY YEARS INTO THE FUTURE. THESE BOARD DESIGNATED CONTRIBUTIONS AND INVESTMENT EARNINGS ARE AVAILABLE TO FUND OPERATIONS; HOWEVER, CONTRIBUTIONS/EARNINGS HAVE NOT BEEN SPENT TO DATE.

| IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 1 | PURSUANT TO GAAP, THE FOUNDATION IS AUDITED AND REPORTED IN THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE USO. THE FOLLOWING FOOTNOTE IS INCLUDED IN THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013. The USO is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986, as amended, as an organization described in IRC Section 501(c)(3). However, income generated from activities unrelated to the USO's exempt purpose is subject to tax under IRC Section 511. The USO did not have any material unrelated business income tax liability for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Therefore, no tax liability has been provided in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. US GAAP requires that a tax position be recognized or derecognized based on a "more likely than not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in the tax return. The USO does not believe its consolidated financial statements include any uncertain tax positions for the open tax years. |
