Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“Frameworks institute has adopted the accounting of uncertainty in income taxes as required by the income taxes topic of the financial accounting standards board (fasb) accounting standards codification (asc). Frameworks institute has analyzed its tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2011- 2012), or expected to be taken in its 2013 return. Frameworks institute is not aware of any tax positions for which it believes that there is a reasonable possibility that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.”
