Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.BOARD DESIGNATED FUNDS ARE INTENDED TO BE USED FOR PROGRAM ENHANCEMENT.PERMANENT ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE INTENDED TO BE MAINTAINED TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT SOURCE OF INCOME.TERM ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE INTENDED TO BE USED FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND ENHANCEMENT OF VARIOUS RESEARCH CENTERS.
Part X : FIN48 FootnoteTHE CENTER QUALIFIES AS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION AND, ACCORDINGLY, IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. THEREFORE, NO PROVISION HAS BEEN MADE FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. THE CENTER HAS ALSO BEEN CLASSIFIED AS AN ENTITY THAT IS NOT A PRIVATE FOUNDATION WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 509(A) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Center and recognize a tax liability if the Center has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed tax positions taken by the Center, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2015, there are no uncertain tax positions taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Center files a federal Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990).
