Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“The officers are responsible for oversight of the annual audit and selection of the auditors. There have been no changes to this process since the prior year.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the plan and recognize a tax liability if the plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the u.s. Federal or illinois taxing jurisdictions. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the plan, and has concluded that as of december 31, 2018, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements.”
