Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“There has been no change in processes from the prior year.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. In addition, the organization qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under section 170(b)(1)(a) and has been classified as an organization other than a private foundation under 509(a)(2). The organization is also exempt from state income taxes. The fasb has issued a standard that clarifies the accounting and recognition of income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the organization's tax returns. The organization has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the irs and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The organization believes that the tax positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the organization's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the organization has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions. If the organization incurs interest or penalties, as a result of unrecognized tax positions, the policy is to classify interest accrued with interest expense and penalties thereon with management and general expenses. The organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.”
