501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and is classified by the Internal Revenue Service as other than a private foundation. Accordingly, no provision or liability for federal and state income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Organization annually evaluates all federal and state income tax positions. This process includes an analysis of whether these income tax positions the Organization takes meet the definition of an uncertain tax position under the Income Taxes topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Codification. In the normal course of business, the Organization is subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities. In general, the Organization is no longer subject to tax examinations for tax years ending before December 31, 2012.

Part VI, LINE 6 Midtown Alliance allows businesses and other organizations to join the Alliance as a member for an annual fee. Members receive no benefits from the Alliance so the fee is treated as a contribution. Part VI, LINE 11B A final draft of Form 990 and Form 990-T was reviewed by the Finance & Audit Committee, the Executive Committee, the President/CEO and the CFO of the organization prior to filing. Part VI, LINE 12C The conflict of interest policy applies to all Board members and employees, and a written copy is distributed to a new Board member upon election and is distributed to employees annually. The policy prohibits a Board member from voting or participating in deliberations or decisions on a matter when any actual, potential or perceived conflict of interest is relevant to a matter requiring action by a Board or Board Committee. Part VI, LINES 15A & B A subcommittee of the Board determines the Chief Executive Officer's compensation. This subcommittee also advises the CEO on senior staff compensation. Part VI, LINE 18 The public inspection copy of the Form 990 and 990-T is kept in the Chief Financial Officer's office and is available for inspection upon request during normal business hours. Part VI, LINE 19 All governing documents, conflict of interest policies, and audited financial statements are made available to the public upon request. Part VII, Section B, Line 1 3 of the independent contractors to which the organization paid more than $100,000 during the year are transit authorities. The organization purchases bus and train passes from these organizations, and then sells these passes to Midtown businesses at the organization's cost. The revenue and expense accounts are netted together for financial statement reporting. Form 990 Part IX reports this activty as the net amount, while Part VII Section B reports the gross amount paid in total. Part VIII, Line 2a The Midtown Alliance has an agreement to provide support and administrative services to the Midtown Community Improvement District ("MID"). The agreement is renewable annually but may be terminated by either party upon sixty days notice. The MID was formed in 2000, and its initial six-year term was extended for an additional six years in both 2006 and 2012. The property owners of the MID agreed to tax themselves up to an additional five mills per year to fund public improvement projects and programs within the district. The Midtown Alliance provides design, project facilitation, and ongoing maintenance services related to improvements approved by the MID Board of Directors. The MID advances money to the Alliance during the year to fund these projects and services. Unused advances are recorded as a liability by the Alliance to the MID.
