Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“The foundation established the helen m. Mcloraine neuroscience research fund to support research in the field of dementia, with a focus on atypical dementia.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“Accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america require management to evaluate tax positions taken by the foundation and recognize a tax liability if the foundation has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the irs or other applicable taxing authorities. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the foundation and has concluded that, as of june 30, 2014 and 2013, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The foundation is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Management believes it is no longer subject to income examinations for years prior to 2011.”
