Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

The internal revenue service has determined that the organization is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)3 of the internal revenue code. The organization is a not-for-profit florida corporation and therefore is not subject to state income tax taxes. The internal revenue code provides for taxation of unrelated business income under certain circumstances. The organization reports no unrelated business taxable income, however, such status is subject to final determination upon examination of the related tax returns by the appropriate taxing authorities.
