Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The institute is organized as a utah nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the internal revenue service (irs) as exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(a) of the internal revenue code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3), that qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under section 170(b)(1)(a)(vi), and has been determined not to be a private foundation under section 509(a)(1). The institute is annually required to file a return of organization exempt from income tax (form 990) with the irs. In addition, the institute is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to its exempt purpose. The institute has determined it is not subject to unrelated business income tax and has not filed an exempt organization business income tax return (form 990-t) with the irs. The institute believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken affecting its annual filing requirements, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The institute would recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and liabilities in income tax expense if such interest and penalties are incurred.”
