        <ReturnReference>PART X, LINE 2:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>GLSEN FOLLOWS THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES. THE STANDARD PRESCRIBES A MINIMUM RECOGNITION THRESHOLD AND MEASUREMENT METHODOLOGY THAT A TAX POSITION TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN IS REQUIRED TO MEET BEFORE BEING RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IT ALSO PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR DERECOGNITION, CLASSIFICATION, INTEREST AND PENALTIES, ACCOUNTING IN INTERIM PERIODS, DISCLOSURE, AND TRANSITION. GLSEN IS SUBJECT TO REGULAR AUDIT BY TAX AUTHORITIES. MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT IT HAS APPROPRIATE SUPPORT FOR THE POSITIONS TAKEN ON ITS TAX RETURNS. IN ASSESSING THE REALIZABILITY OF TAX BENEFITS, MANAGEMENT CONSIDERS WHETHER IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT SOME PORTION OR ALL OF ANY TAX POSITION WILL NOT BE REALIZED. NONETHELESS, THE AMOUNTS ULTIMATELY PAID, IF ANY, UPON RESOLUTION OF THE ISSUES RAISED BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE AMOUNTS FILED. MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT ITS NONPROFIT STATUS WOULD BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION. WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS, GLSEN IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS BY TAX AUTHORITIES FOR FISCAL YEARS BEFORE 2010.</Explanation>
