Return ReferenceDescription of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:ReturnReference
ExplanationFederal income taxes: The trust has received an exemption letter from the Internal Revenue Service, stating that the trust is tax-exempt under the provisions of Section 501c(9) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) as a Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Association. The Fund and trust are required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain the tax-exempt status of the trust. The Funds' administrator believes the Fund is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes the related trust continues to be tax-exempt. Effective April 1, 2009, the Fund adopted ASC Topic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. For the year ended March 31, 2010, the Fund has no material uncertain tax positions to be accounted for in the financial statements under the new rules. The Fund sponsor would be liable for interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund's Forms 5500's and 990's for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 are subject to examination by the respective taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed.Explanation
