        <ReturnReference>PART X:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>THE ORGANIZATION HAS ADOPTED THE GUIDANCE IN ASC 740, INCOME TAXES, RELATING TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS. THIS GUIDANCE PRESCRIBES A TWO STEP PROCESS FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN OR ARE EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN ON A TAX RETURN. THE FIRST STEP IS A DETERMINATION OF WHETHER THE TAX POSITION SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SECOND STEP DETERMINES THE MEASURMENT OF THE TAX POSITION. SUCH POSITIONS FOR A NONPROFIT CORPORATION WOULD INCLUDE THE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION'S STATUS AS AN EXEMPT ENTITY, WHETHER THE ORGANIZATION'S ACTIVITIES ARE RELATED TO ITS TAX EXEMPT PURPOSE AND, IF APPLICABLE, HOW THE ORGANIZATION ALLOCATES REVENUE AND EXPENSES BETWEEN ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE AND UNRELATED BUSINESS ACTIVITIES. ASC 740 ALSO PROVIDES GUIDANCE ON DERECOGNITION OF SUCH TAX POSITIONS, CLASSIFICATION, POTENTIAL INTEREST AND PENALTIES, AND DISCLOSURE. NO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF ASC 740 EXIST AS OF THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012.</Explanation>
