The Organization has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and the state jurisdiction of North Carolina where is operates. The Organization believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse affect on the Organization's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the Organization has not recoreded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at June 30,2015 and 2014. Pt X, Line 2 The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. As of the date of this report, the Organization believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to fiscal 2012.
