Any trustee may be removed from office by action of a majority of trustees in office, subject to the consent of the clearing's board of directors, or independently by the clearing's board of directors.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“The endowment fund is held for the purposes of providing support to the clearing and certain amounts of the annual income generated from the fund are distributed to the clearing to support its functions, consistent with the clearing endowment trust's mission and purpose.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“The clearing and the clearing endowment trust have received notification that they qualify as tax-exempt organizations under section 501(c)(3) of the u.s. Internal revenue code and corresponding provisions of state law and, accordingly, are not subject to federal or state income taxes. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the organizations' tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. In both 2019 and 2018, the tax expense on unrelated business income was not material. It is the organizations' policy to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. With few exceptions, the organizations are no longer subject to u.s. Federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years before 2016 (2015 for the state of wisconsin). The organizations are not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction.”

IRS990ScheduleD/OtherLiabilitiesOrgGrp/Desc0DUE TO THE CLEARING
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE ENDOWMENT FUND IS HELD FOR THE PURPOSES OF PROVIDING SUPPORT TO THE CLEARING AND CERTAIN AMOUNTS OF THE ANNUAL INCOME GENERATED FROM THE FUND ARE DISTRIBUTED TO THE CLEARING TO SUPPORT ITS FUNCTIONS, CONSISTENT WITH THE CLEARING ENDOWMENT TRUST'S MISSION AND PURPOSE.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1THE CLEARING AND THE CLEARING ENDOWMENT TRUST HAVE RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT THEY QUALIFY AS TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATIONS UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE U.S. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND CORRESPONDING PROVISIONS OF STATE LAW AND, ACCORDINGLY, ARE NOT SUBJECT TO FEDERAL OR STATE INCOME TAXES. HOWEVER, INCOME FROM CERTAIN ACTIVITIES NOT DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE ORGANIZATIONS' TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSE IS SUBJECT TO TAXATION AS UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME. IN BOTH 2019 AND 2018, THE TAX EXPENSE ON UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME WAS NOT MATERIAL. IT IS THE ORGANIZATIONS' POLICY TO RECOGNIZE INTEREST AND PENALTIES RELATED TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS IN INCOME TAX EXPENSE. WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS, THE ORGANIZATIONS ARE NO LONGER SUBJECT TO U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS BY TAX AUTHORITIES FOR THE YEARS BEFORE 2016 (2015 FOR THE STATE OF WISCONSIN). THE ORGANIZATIONS ARE NOT CURRENTLY UNDER EXAMINATION BY ANY TAXING JURISDICTION.
