Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The foundation operates as a nonprofit foundation under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and is classified as other than a private foundation. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided. The foundation has implemented accounting for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america ("u.s. Gaap"). This standard prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides guidance on various related matters such as derecognizing, interest, penalties and disclosures required. Management of the foundation evaluates the uncertain tax positions taken, if any, and consults with outside counsel as deemed necessary. The foundation recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities in income tax expense. In management's opinion, the foundation has not taken any uncertain tax positions, and accordingly, has not reported a corresponding liability in the foundation's financial statements.
