        <Explanation>IN FEBRUARY 1997 THE FOUNDATION FOR HOSPICE AND HOMECARE (FHHC) TRANSFERRED REAL PROPERTY WITH THE ADDRESS OF 513 C STREET, WASHINGTON, DC 20003 TO ITS PARENT COMPANY- THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR HOME CARE AND HOSPICE (NAHC). THE REAL PROPERTY IN QUESTION WAS EXCHANGED AT FAIR MARKET VALUE. WHILE THE 1997 TRANSFER OF PROPERTY IS WELL DOCUMENTED IN THE BOARD MINUTES OF FHHC AND NAHC, THE TRANSFER WAS NOT RECORDED ON THE BOOKS OF FHHC UNTIL 2012. IN 2011 THE PROPERTY REFERENCED ABOVE WAS LISTED AS AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE AND WAS PRESENTED AS SUCH AT 12/31/11 ON PART X OF FHHC'S 2011 FORM 990. IN REALITY, THIS PROPERTY SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPORTED ON NAHC'S 2011 FORM 990. IN AN EFFORT TO PRESENT THE MOST ACCURATE INFORMATION POSSIBLE, THE BEGINNING BALANCES ON PART X HAVE BEEN RESTATED TO REFLECT THE TRANSFER OF PROPERTY REFERENCED ABOVE. AS A RESULT OF THIS RESTATEMENT, BEGINNING NET ASSETS AT 1/1/12 AS REPORTED ON NAHC'S 2012 FORM 990 ARE $19,557 LOWER THAN REPORTED AT 12/31/11 ON NAHC'S 2011 FORM 990.</Explanation>
