Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization is qualified under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and is not classified as a private foundation. Nonprofit organizations are not generally liable for taxes on income; therefore, no provision is made for such taxes in the financial statements. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes provides guidance on how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the organization and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (ubit). The organization believes that it has no uncertain tax positions that impact its financial statements. The organization files form 990 with the internal revenue service, and files related exempt organization returns in the state of california. The returns are generally no longer subject to examination by the internal revenue service after three years, or by the state of california after four years.”
