| Part X, Line 2: | The Organization is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Management is required to evaluate tax positions taken by the Organization and recognize a tax liability if the Organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the U.S. Federal, state, or local taxing authorities. The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Typically, tax years will remain open for three years; however, this may differ depending upon the circumstances of the Organization. |
