Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“The process has not changed from the prior year”

Financial Statement Notes

PART III, LINE 4:

“The organization maintains a fossil museum and has fossils embedded in the cliffs which are part of the common area. The organization regularly receives groups of school children to view its collection of fossils and search for fossils on the beach. In addition the organization has allowed palentologists from other museums to extract intact shark fossils from the cliffs, but the organization does not give up ownership of the fossils until they are satisfied with its use.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“The association has adopted the recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by generally accepted accounting principles, with no cumulative effect adjustment required. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The association has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the internal revenue service. The association believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the associations financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the association has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties, for uncertain income tax positions at december 31, 2013.”
