        <ExplanationTxt>The Organization is organized as a North Dakota 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), qualify for the charitable contribution deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) and (viii), and has been determined not to be private foundations under Sections 509(a)(1) and (3), respectively. The Organization is annually required to file a Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990) with the IRS. In addition, the Organization is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to their exempt purposes. Management has determined the Organization 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. Management believes that the Organization 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 Organization 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.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Pat Simmers is compensated for his services as the Executive Director of The Team Makers Club from the North Dakota State University Athletic Department, an unrelated organization. His compensation, consisting of base salary, pension, life insurance, and health benefits, is for his services to both organizations. The Athletic Department has not been able to determine the allocation of his salary between his services to The Team Makers Club versus the Athletic Department. The NDSUAD uses a national compensation survey on an annual basis to determine the reasonableness of compensation. The amount paid to Pat for services to both organizations includes $123,948 in salary, $15,984 in pension and $14,140 in benefits. During 2016, Team Makers Club reimbursed the Executive Director $2,781 as reported in Part VII for dependent care expenses that were incurred during work related overnight travel for Team Makers Club. The filing organization reported this income on a W-2.</ExplanationTxt>
