        <ExplanationTxt>The Council has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to be treated as a tax exempt entity pursuant to Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and is exempt from federal income taxes under the Code for all income except that derived from unrelated business income. The Council is subject to unrelated business income tax for unrelated business income. The Council did not have any unrelated business income during 2016 or 2015. Due to its tax exempt status, the Council is required to file and does file tax returns with the IRS and other taxing authorities. The Council has implemented FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. As a result, the Council did not identify any uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. INcome tax returns filed by the Council are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years. While no income tax returns are currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service, tax years since 2011 remain open.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Conflicts of Interest Process for NMHC Staff: Below is the Conflict of Interest Policy from the Employee Handbook. Conflicts of InteresT: It is the policy of the Council to prohibit its employees from engaging in any activity, practice, or act which conflicts with, or appears to conflict with, the interests of the Council or the Council's members. The following guidelines should be followed to avoid conflicts of interest. It is impossible to describe all of the situations that may result in a conflict of interest. Therefore, the guidelines included in this policy are not exhaustive and only include some of the more clearcut examples. Employees have an obligation to avoid all conflicts of interest and to refer questions and concerns about potential conflicts to the Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations. Employees are not to engage in, directly or indirectly, any conduct which is disloyal, disruptive, competitive or damaging to the Council. Employees must disclose any financial interest they or their immediate family have in any firm which does business with the Council or which competes with the Council. The Council may require divestiture of such interest if it deems the interest to be in conflict with its best interests. Employees must disclose any financial interest they or their immediate family (spouse, parents, children and parents in law) have in any member owned entities.The Council may require divestiture of such interest if it deems the interest to be in conflict with its best interests. Employees may learn or become aware of information about members of the Council which, if known to the public, might affect the decision of a reasonable investor to buy, sell or hold member-owned property or securities. Employees are prohibited from misusing such material inside information prior to public disclosure by purchasing or selling member-owned property or securities for their own account or for accounts of members of their immediate family. Further, employees are not to disclose inside information to anyone, either inside or outside the Council who does not have a legitimate need to know. All employees should avoid personal activities or involvement which may result in personal benefit and thus create or appear to create a conflict with their responsibility and loyalty to the Council. Should you receive any gifts, gratuities, or other items of value greater than $100 from member owned entities, vendors, or business contacts of NMHC. Employees should disclose such items in writing to their supervisor, who in turn will give the disclosure to the Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations. Under no circumstances does NMHC allow the payment of bribes,kickbacks, or anything of value to any employee in exchange for any type of favor, profit, or concession. No later than January 31 of each year the Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations will distribute the Conflicts of Interest form to all employees who will complete the form within 30 days of receipt and return it to the Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations who will file the Conflicts of Interest form with the corporate files. The Senior Vice President reviews the completed forms with the President and takes actions to mitigate any conflicts as appropriate. NMHC also provides a toll free number and website of a third party reporting organization to report suspected violations of the law, violations of NMHC polices and procedures, dishonest or unethical behavior, crimes, or improper business activities. The reporting service provides monthly reports to NMHC and the chairman of the audit committee. In each Annual Report NMHC provides the following information: NMHC members and employees are encouraged to report suspected violations of the law, violations of NMHC policies procedures, dishonest or unethical behavior, crimes, or improper business activities to NMHC's Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations or through Report Line at 877/888-0002 or www.tnwinc.com/webreport.

Members should check the NMHC web site for any changes to the reporting process. The Audit Committee shall ensure that employees may report suspected violations anonymously in accordance with local, state, and federal Whistleblower Statutes and Employee Protection Ordinances.</ExplanationTxt>
