Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The fund is generally exempt from federal income taxes under the provisions of section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code (the code). In addition, the fund qualifies for charitable contributions deductions and has been classified as an organization that is not a private foundation. Income which is not related to exempt purposes, less applicable deductions, is subject to federal and state income taxes. There was no tax liability for unrelated business income for the period from april 9, 2015 (inception) to december 31, 2015. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. The fund's tax returns are subject to review and examination by federal and state authorities. The fund is not aware of any activities that would jeopardize its tax-exempt status. Because the fund was formed during 2015, that year is the only tax year open for examination by u.s. Federal, state or local tax authorities.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE FUND IS GENERALLY EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (THE CODE). IN ADDITION, THE FUND QUALIFIES FOR CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS DEDUCTIONS AND HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED AS AN ORGANIZATION THAT IS NOT A PRIVATE FOUNDATION. INCOME WHICH IS NOT RELATED TO EXEMPT PURPOSES, LESS APPLICABLE DEDUCTIONS, IS SUBJECT TO FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES. THERE WAS NO TAX LIABILITY FOR UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME FOR THE PERIOD FROM APRIL 9, 2015 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31, 2015. ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES HAS BEEN MADE IN THE ACCOMPANYING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE FUND'S TAX RETURNS ARE SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND EXAMINATION BY FEDERAL AND STATE AUTHORITIES. THE FUND IS NOT AWARE OF ANY ACTIVITIES THAT WOULD JEOPARDIZE ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS. BECAUSE THE FUND WAS FORMED DURING 2015, THAT YEAR IS THE ONLY TAX YEAR OPEN FOR EXAMINATION BY U.S. FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL TAX AUTHORITIES.
