Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

Management of the organization considers the likelihood of changes by taxing authorities in its filed income tax returns and recognizes a liability for or discloses potential significant changes that management believes are more likely than not to occur upon examination by tax authorities, including changes to the organization's status as a not-for-profit entity. Management believes the organization met the requirements to maintain its tax-exempt status and has no income subject to unrelated business income tax, therefore no provision for income taxes has been provided in these financial statements. The organization's income tax returns for the past three years are subject to examination by tax authorities, and may change upon examination.
