        <ReturnReference>PART X:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>APS HAS RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE THAT IT IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES RELATED TO ITS EXEMPT FUNCTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 501 (C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. HOWEVER, INCOME FROM CERTAIN ACTIVITIES NOT DIRECTLY RELATED TO APS'S TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSE IS SUBJECT TO TAXATION AS UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME. INCOME TAX EXPENSE INCLUDES FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES CURRENTLY PAYABLE ON UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME. INCOME TAX EXPENSE ON UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME TAXABLE (UBIT) IS $40,513. THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD ON ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES ADDRESSES THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER TAX BENEFITS CLAIMED OR EXPECTED TO BE CLAIMED ON A TAX RETURN SHOULD BE RECORDED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. UNDER THIS GUIDANCE, THE ORGANIZATION MAY RECOGNIZE THE TAX BENEFIT FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION ONLY IF IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT THE TAX POSITION WILL BE SUSTAINED ON EXAMINATION BY TAXING AUTHORITIES, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. EXAMPLES OF TAX POSITIONS INCLUDE THE TAX EXEMPT STATUS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND VARIOUS POSITIONS RELATED TO THE POTENTIAL SOURCES OF UBIT. THERE WERE NO UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS IDENTIFIED OR RECORDED AS LIABILITIES FOR THE REPORTING PERIODS INCLUDED IN THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. AT DECEMBER 31,2011, APS HAD UBIT OF APPROXIMATELY $143,220. APS FILES FORMS 990 IN THE U.S. FEDERAL JURISDICTION AND THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS, APS IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE FOR YEARS BEFORE 2008.</Explanation>
