Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“The museum is a not-for-profit organization that is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. The museum has also been classified as an entity that is not a private foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) and qualifies for deductible contributions as provided in section 170(b)(1)(a)(vi). There was no unrelated business income nor unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended december 31, 2022. Each of the organization's prior three years remains subject to examination by the internal revenue service. The museum has evaluated its tax positions for all open tax years. Based on the evaluation of the museum 's tax positions, management believes all tax positions taken would be upheld under an examination. Therefore, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded for the year ended december 31, 2022.”
