| Pt II, Line 5 | CEs are monitored by Mainsprings conservation easement monitoring staff at least annually with a report to Mainsprings files and the landowner. The handling of violations, monitoring and enforcement are covered in Mainsprings Stewardship Policy Manual. |
| Pt II, Line 9 | Conservation easements purchased are expensed at cost. Conservation easements received by donation are not recorded in the organizations books.(See Schedule O for further information.) |
| Pt V, Line 4 | Mainspring has three accounts at the Community Foundation of WNC. Two are for stewardship purposes (The Permanent and nonpermanent funds) and the income generated from those funds is for conservation easement stewardship, land acquisition and other conservation purposes consistent with the purpose and terms of the fund. The third account is the Mainspring Endowment Fund and funds generated from that fund can be used for operations. |
| Pt X, Line 2 | Mainspring is exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, however,income from certain activities not related to the organizations tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. Mainspring had income from unrelated business activities in the 2024 fiscal year and was, therefore, required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). Management anticipates that taxes payable, if any, will not be material to the financial statements. The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. |

| Other | Sch D, Ln 3&5 - Since U.S. GAAP does not provide specific guidance on the accounting treatment for conservation easements, land trust organizations in the U.S. use several different methods to account for the easements they hold. Mainspring has adopted one such method which is widely used by other land trusts. Under this method, conservation easements are not recognized as assets. Accordingly, easements received by donation are not recorded in income and easements purchased by the organization are recorded as expenses. Management believes that this method results in financial statements that most accurately reflect the organizations financial activities. |
