        <ReturnReference>PART I, LINE 2:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>SCHEDULE I, PART I, LINE 2: THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION (NWF) PROVIDES ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR IN THE FORM OF GRANTS AND AWARDS. THIS SUPPORT IS GIVEN TO BOTH ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS WHOSE WORK WILL FURTHER BENEFIT THE MISSION OF NWF'S CONSERVATION AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS. FOR GRANTS THAT ARE SUB-AWARDS AND WHERE THE ORIGINAL FUNDS WERE GRANTED TO NWF, WE REQUIRE THE AWARDEE TO REPORT TO NWF ON HOW THE FUNDS ARE USED. IN CASES WHERE IT IS NWF FUNDS THAT ARE GIVEN OUT AS A GRANT, THERE ARE TWO TYPES: 1.) IF THE GRANT IS FOR ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT TO A 501(C)(3)AFFILIATE, NWF DOES NOT ASK THEM TO REPORT TO US. THE GRANT CONTRACT SPECIFIES THE TERMS AND USES OF THE GRANT. 2.) THE OTHER TYPE OF GRANT WOULD BE FOR A NON-AFFILIATE OR NON 501(C)(3)ENTITY THAT IS IN THE CONSERVATION AND EDUCATION FIELD. NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION SPECIFIES IN ITS AWARD LETTER TO GRANTEES THE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS ON THE USE OF THE FUNDS AND IN SOME CASES RESERVES THE RIGHT TO EXAMINE THE RECORDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE AWARD.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>CONSERVATION ADVOCACY PROGRAMS EDUCATE AND ENGAGE THE PUBLIC IN NWF'S WORK SAFEGUARDING WILDLIFE AND HABITAT, RECONNECTING PEOPLE WITH NATURE AND ADVANCING SOLUTIONS TO CLIMATE CHANGE. SAFEGUARDING WILDLIFE MEANS PROTECTING AND DEFENDING WILDLIFE AND THE WILD PLACES THAT WILDLIFE NEEDS TO SURVIVE AND RESTORING THE HEALTH OF OUR NATURAL HABITATS AND ECOSYSTEMS. NWF'S HIGHEST LEGISLATIVE PRIORITY FOR THE YEAR, THE RESTORE ACT, WAS SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATED THROUGH A DAUNTING CONGRESSIONAL ENVIRONMENT AND SIGNED INTO LAW, CREATING THE LARGEST ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION TRUST FUND IN HISTORY. THE RESTORE ACT SETS UP A CONSERVATION FUND TO RESTORE THE GULF COAST AND WILL BE FUNDED FROM DAMAGES PAID FOR THE GULF OIL DISASTER. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE FORT PECK AND FORT BELKNAP TRIBES, WE RESTORED 61 WILD, YELLOWSTONE BISON TO THE FORT PECK RESERVATION IN MARCH 2012, THE RETURN OF WILD BISON TO TRIBAL LANDS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN OVER ONE CENTURY. THROUGH WORK WITH OUR AFFILIATES AND PARTNERS, NWF HAS SECURED AND CLOSED, THROUGH OUR ALLOTMENT RETIREMENT PROGRAM, MORE THAN 500,000 ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND TO GRAZING IN THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE ECOSYSTEM, WHICH WILL RESTORE AND PROTECT PRIME WILDLIFE HABITAT. NWF SECURED PROTECTIONS FOR MORE THAN 11 MILLION ACRES OF CRITICAL WILDLIFE HABITAT, INCLUDING TESHEKPUK LAKE, ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT WETLANDS COMPLEXES IN THE ARCTIC AND HOME TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF MIGRATORY BIRDS AND CALVING GROUNDS FOR THE 45,000-HEAD TESHEKPUK LAKE CARIBOU HERD. WORKING WITH PRIVATE OFFSHORE WIND DEVELOPERS, NWF COMPLETED A LAND MARK PRIVATE AGREEMENT ON PROTECTION OF THE ENDANGERED RIGHT WHALE DURING OFFSHORE WIND PROJECT CONSTRUCTION. THROUGH OUR NATIONAL POLICY ACTION, NWF SECURED THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY'S FORMAL VETO ON THE CLEAN WATER ACT PERMIT FOR THE YAZOO PUMPS PROJECT IN MISSISSIPPI, WHICH WOULD HAVE DRAINED 200,000 ACRES OF CRITICALLY IMPORTANT WETLANDS, AND SUCCESSFULLY FOUGHT FOR AND ACHIEVED FEDERAL LEGISLATION THAT PERMANENTLY WITHDREW MINERAL LEASING IN VALLE VIDAL. BECAUSE CLIMATE CHANGE IS HAVING PROFOUND EFFECTS ON THE RESILIENCY AND HEALTH OF ECOSYSTEMS AND THE ABILITY OF NATURE, WILD SPECIES AND PEOPLE TO REMAIN HEALTHY AND ALIVE, NWF WORKS TO INSPIRE PEOPLE TO TAKE ACTION AT HOME AND AT WORK, ON THEIR WORKING LANDS, IN THEIR COMMUNITIES, AND IN STATE AND FEDERAL LEGISLATURES THAT WILL ACCELERATE THE SHIFT AWAY FROM CARBON-BASED ENERGY. DUE IN PART TO NWF'S LEADERSHIP, IN 2012 PRESIDENT OBAMA REJECTED A PROPOSAL TO BUILD THE KEYSTONE XL PIPELINE, WHICH WOULD JEOPARDIZE WILDLIFE AND WATER SUPPLIES AND INCREASE OUR DEPENDENCE ON CANADA'S TAR SANDS OIL, THE DIRTIEST FUEL ON THE PLANET AND A MAJOR SOURCE OF CARBON POLLUTION. AMONG OTHER THINGS, NWF LED EFFORTS TO GENERATE ON-THE-GROUND OPPOSITION TO THE PIPELINE AMONG FARMERS AND RANCHERS IN NEBRASKA. NWF WORKS WITH CONGRESS, THE ADMINISTRATION, GOVERNORS, AND STATE LEGISLATURES TO ADVANCE POLICIES THAT GET CHILDREN AND FAMILIES OUTDOORS THROUGH OUTDOOR EDUCATION, RECREATION AND PLAY.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>NWF'S BE OUT THERE PROGRAM ENCOURAGES AMERICANS TO GET OUTSIDE AND ENJOY THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND PROVIDES A NUMBER OF USEFUL TOOLS AND ACTIVITIES FOR FAMILIES THAT MAKE IT EASY TO GET OUTSIDE. THIS INCLUDES HIKE &amp; SEEK, THE GREAT AMERICAN BACKYARD CAMPOUT, AND NATURE FIND. HIKE &amp; SEEK, ONE OF OUR SIGNATURE EVENTS, BROUGHT 885 EXPLORERS OUTSIDE TO EXPERIENCE NATURE IN AN EDUCATIONAL ATMOSPHERE. NWF'S CERTIFIED WILDLIFE HABITATS' PROGRAM HAS PRODUCED THREE SUCCESSFUL WAYS FOR OUR FOUR MILLION MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO HELP WILDLIFE ON THEIR OWN TERMS AND IN THEIR OWN TIME - CERTIFIED WILDLIFE HABITAT, SCHOOLYARD HABITAT, AND COMMUNITY WILDLIFE HABITAT. WITH OVER 146,000 CERTIFIED HABITATS, 3,550 ACTIVE SCHOOLYARD HABITATS AND 65 CERTIFIED COMMUNITY HABITATS, OVER FIVE MILLION AMERICANS ARE PARTICIPATING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR WILDLIFE. NWF IS THE U.S. HOST FOR THE INTERNATIONAL ECO-SCHOOLS USA PROGRAM AIMED AT FOSTERING A GREATER SENSE OF ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN SCHOOL AGE STUDENTS. SINCE ITS LAUNCH IN 2009, NWF HAS SIGNED UP 2,300 SCHOOLS REPRESENTING 1.4 MILLION STUDENTS AND 83,000 EDUCATORS. HALF OF NWF'S 2,300 ECO-SCHOOLS REDUCED ENERGY BY AN AVERAGE OF 25% (OR $50,000 PER YEAR) SAVING THESE SCHOOLS $58 MILLION AND REDUCING 53 MILLION POUNDS OF CO2 EMISSION EACH YEAR. FOR 45 YEARS, RANGER RICK MAGAZINE HAS BEEN INTRODUCING KIDS TO THE WONDERS OF NATURE. RANGER RICK CONTINUED ITS STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION BY WINNING SEVERAL ACCOLADES, INCLUDING REGULARLY WINNING THE PARENTS' CHOICE AWARD FOR MAGAZINES AND AWARD FROM THE ASSOCIATION OF EDUCATIONAL PUBLISHING. TOGETHER WITH OUR TWO OTHER AWARD WINNING CHILDREN'S MAGAZINES, THEY REACH ABOUT ONE MILLION HOMES PER MONTH AND OVER TWO AND A HALF MILLION YOUNG READERS. NWF'S TREES FOR WILDLIFE PROGRAM ENGAGED 10,000 CHILDREN AND YOUTH TO PLANT 21,000 TREES AT MORE THAN 100 EVENTS, THAT WILL PROVIDE CRITICAL WILDLIFE HABITAT AND STORE 1 MILLION POUNDS OF CARBON OVER 20 YEARS. TO BOOST UNDER-SERVED STUDENTS' CAREER ADVANTAGE FOR THE CLEAN ENERGY ECONOMY, NWF'S CAMPUS ECOLOGY PROGRAM'S GREENFORCE INITIATIVE WORKED WITH SENIOR ADMINISTRATORS AND FACULTY AT MORE THAN 100 COMMUNITY COLLEGES IN SIX STATES TO INCORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY AND GREEN-TECH SKILLS AND JOB COMPETENCIES INTO NEW AND EXISTING CURRICULUM PROGRAMS THAT ANNUALLY REACH AT LEAST 15,000 STUDENTS.</Explanation>
