(RtF) has adopted the accounting guidance for recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. RtF follows the statutory requirements for their income tax accounting and generally avoids risks associated with potentially problematic tax positions that may be challenged upon examination. Management believes any liability resulting from taxing authorities imposing additional income taxes from activites deemed to be unrelated to RtF's tax exempt status would not have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. RtF's federal exempt organization tax returns are subject to examination by the internal revenue service, generally for three years after they are filed. With few exceptions, RtF is no longer subject to such examinations for years before 2013. 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Europe (Including Iceland & Greenland) Subaward for APCP project. 162490 wire transfer 0 0 0 0 0 0 Part I, Line 2: The single grant to foreign organization was awarded on a reimbursement basis.
