PART V, LINE 4:THE INSTITUTE HAS NUMEROUS DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS ESTABLISHED TO FURTHER ITS EDUCATIONAL MISSION.
PART X, LINE 2:THE INSTITUTE ACCOUNTS FOR THE EFFECT OF ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS BASED ON A "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" THRESHOLD TO THE RECOGNITION OF THE TAX POSITIONS BEING SUSTAINED BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION UNDER SCRUTINY BY THE APPLICABLE TAXING AUTHORITY. IF A TAX POSITION OR POSITIONS ARE DEEMED TO RESULT IN UNCERTAINTIES OF THOSE POSITIONS, THE UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFIT IS ESTIMATED BASED ON A "CUMULATIVE PROBABILITY ASSESSMENT" THAT AGGREGATES THE ESTIMATED TAX LIABILITY FOR ALL UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS. THE INSTITUTE HAS IDENTIFIED ITS TAX STATUS AS A TAX EXEMPT ENTITY AND ITS DETERMINATIONS OF WHICH INCOME ITEMS ARE RELATED OR UNRELATED AS ITS ONLY SIGNIFICANT TAX POSITIONS; HOWEVER, THE INSTITUTE HAS DETERMINED THAT SUCH TAX POSITIONS DO NOT RESULT IN AN UNCERTAINITY REQUIRING RECOGNITION. THE INSTITUTE IS NOT CURRENTLY UNDER EXAMINATION BY ANY TAXING JURISDICTIONS AND CONSIDERS FURTHER TAX DISCLOSURES AS NOT SIGNIFICANT. THE INSTITUTE'S FEDERAL AND STATE TAX RETURNS ARE GENERALLY OPEN FOR EXAMINATION FOR THREE YEARS FOLLOWING THE DATE FILED.
