INTENDED USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS	FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4	THE OPERA'S INVESTMENT COMMITTEE, A SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, HAS ADOPTED INVESTMENT AND SPENDING POLICIES FOR ENDOWMENT ASSETS THAT ATTEMPT TO PROVIDE A PREDICTABLE STREAM OF FUNDING TO PROGRAMS SUPPORTED BY ITS ENDOWMENT WHILE SEEKING TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS. TO SATISFY THE LONG-TERM RATE-OF-RETURN OBJECTIVES, THE OPERA RELIES ON A TOTAL RETURN STRATEGY IN WHICH INVESTMENT RETURNS ARE ACHIEVED THROUGH BOTH CAPITAL APPRECIATION (REALIZED AND UNREALIZED) AND CURRENT YIELD (INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS). IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THE LONG-TERM GROWTH OF THE OPERA, THE INVESTMENT COMMITTEE HAS ESTABLISHED A SPENDING RATE POLICY WHERE THE ENDOWMENT SHALL ANNUALLY DISTRIBUTE 5% OF ITS FAIR VALUE. FOR SPENDING RATE PURPOSES, THE FAIR VALUE OF THE ENDOWMENT SHALL BE CALCULATED AT THE CALENDAR YEAR-END VALUATION OF THE ENDOWMENT PRIOR TO THE START OF THE OPERA'S FISCAL YEAR. FOR FUNDS WITH DONOR-IMPOSED ASSET ALLOCATIONS OR DISTRIBUTIONS, THE DISTRIBUTIONS WILL CONFORM TO THE DONOR'S EXPRESSED WISHES. THIS SPENDING RATE POLICY IS CONSISTENT WITH THE OPERA'S OBJECTIVE TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS HELD IN PERPETUITY OR FOR A SPECIFIED TERM AS WELL AS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL REAL GROWTH THROUGH NET GIFTS AND INVESTMENT RETURN.
FIN 48 (ASC 740) FOOTNOTE	FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2	THE OPERA FOLLOWS THE FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD (FASB) ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION (ASC) SUBTOPIC 740-10, INCOME-TAXES - OVERALL, RELATED TO ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES, WHICH PRESCRIBES A RECOGNITION THRESHOLD AND MEASUREMENT ATTRIBUTE FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT OF A TAX POSITION TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN.
