Part X, Line 2: The Network follows the provisions of the ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION relating to uncertainty in income taxes. This guidance requires entities (including income tax exempt organizations) to assess their uncertain tax positions for the likelihood that they would be overturned upon Internal Revenue Service examination or upon examination by state taxing authorities. The Network has determined that it does not have any positions at December 31, 2015, that it would be unable to substantiate. The Network has filed its tax returns through December 31, 2014. The tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2012, and thereafter are subject to audit by the taxing authorities. 1 East Asia and the Pacific 0 1 PROGRAM SERVICES BROADCASTING/MARKETING 287537 Europe 0 4 PROGRAM SERVICES BROADCASTING/MARKETING 234672 North America 0 1 PROGRAM SERVICES BROADCASTING/MARKETING 71365 South America 0 2 PROGRAM SERVICES BROADCASTING/MARKETING 128837 Sub-Saharan Africa 0 1 PROGRAM SERVICES BROADCASTING/MARKETING 66593 0 9 0 0 0 9 789004 0 789004 Russia & the Newly Independent States PROGRAM SERVICES 17847 WIRE TRANSFER 0 N/A N/A 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 Part I, Line 2: EWTN management evaluates and approves the distribution of funds to other organizations for assistance.
