        <ReturnReference>PART X, LINE 2:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>THE SCHOOL FOLLOWS THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES. THE STANDARD PRESCRIBES A MINIMUM RECOGNITION THRESHOLD AND MEASUREMENT METHODOLOGY THAT A TAX POSITION TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN IS REQUIRED TO MEET BEFORE BEING RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IT ALSO PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR DERECOGNITION, CLASSIFICATION, INTEREST AND PENALTIES, ACCOUNTING IN INTERIM PERIODS, DISCLOSURE, AND TRANSITION. THE SCHOOL FILES INFORMATIONAL RETURNS IN THE FEDERAL JURISDICTION. THE SCHOOL IS SUBJECT TO INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE FOR ALL TAX YEARS. THE SCHOOL BELIEVES THAT IT HAS APPROPRIATE SUPPORT FOR THE POSITIONS TAKEN ON ITS TAX RETURNS. NONETHELESS, THE AMOUNTS ULTIMATELY PAID, IF ANY, UPON RESOLUTION OF THE ISSUES RAISED BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE AMOUNTS FILED. MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT ITS NONPROFIT STATUS WOULD BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION. SHOULD THERE BE INTEREST ON UNDERPAYMENTS OF INCOME TAX, THE SCHOOL WOULD CLASSIFY IT AS "INTEREST EXPENSE." THE SCHOOL WOULD CLASSIFY PENALTIES IN CONNECTION WITH UNDERPAYMENTS OF TAX AS "OTHER EXPENSE."</Explanation>
