Part XII, Line 2C

“Clemson University Research Foundation (CURF) participates in a combined RFP process for audit services for all related organizations. There is no requirement for each organization to use the same auditor but the organizations have chosen to collectively seek coordinated services from the same auditor. At least one board member representative from each organization is part of the team in selecting an auditor. The CURF Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of the compliance and financial audit.”

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The Foundation is recognized as an organization exempt from income tax on related income under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and described as an organization in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, accordingly, only unrelated business income, as defined by Section 513 of the Code, is subject to federal income tax. The Foundation's policy is to record a liability for any tax position taken that is beneficial to the Foundation, including any related interest and penalties, when it is more likely than not the position taken by management with respect to a transaction or class of transactions will be overturned by a taxing authority upon examination. Management believes that there are no such positions as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 and, accordingly, no liability has been accrued.”
