        <Explanation>Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by these entities and has concluded that as of June 30, 2012, there were no uncertain tax positions taken or are expected to be taken. Accordingly, no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Food Bank NYC and CFRC are subject to audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, no audits for any tax periods are currently in progress. Management believes that both entities are no longer subject to income tax examinations for years ended on or prior to June 30, 2008 under Federal and New York tax jurisdictions.</Explanation>
