It is management's belief that such tax positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. Accordingly, no liability for uncertain tax positions has been reflected in these financial statements. Returns for tax years beginning with those filed for the year ended June 30, 2007 are open to examination. Part XI, Line 8 - Other Adjustments: EQUITY LOSSES IN PARTNERSHIP INTEREST: -29834.
