| Part V, Line 4: | Hudson Highlands Fjord Trail, Inc. (HHFT) does not hold a "permanent endowment," that is, a fund intended by the donor to preserve its original principal amount and thus where spending is restricted to income and other investment earnings. HHFT does hold a "quasi-endowment" fund (the "Fund"), which had a value of $3,367,949 as of June 30, 2024. The Board established the Fund during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 with a grant (the "Gift") of $50,000 to support future operating and maintenance costs of the Hudson Highlands Fjord Trail by The Scenic Hudson Land Trust, Inc. (SHLT), a related, tax-exempt organization. The Gift is subject to a Gift Agreement (the "Agreement") whereby the HHFT Board of Directors may determine how, when and in what amounts balances in the Fund are applied to pay such operating expenses. There were no such expenses incurred during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. While new gifts from related and unrelated organizations and individuals (and investment earnings thereon) may be allocated to the Fund, the Gift Agreement specifies that the original Gift amount shall revert to SHLT under certain circumstances. HHFT intends to grow such fund as its operating and maintenance obligations grow with the completion of each phase of the Fjord Trail project. Such fund is not intended to be sole or primary source of funding to pay operating and maintenance costs of the Fjord Trail, which are expected to be met in significant part in the usual manner, i.e., by application of annual contributions or earned revenues. |
| Part X, Line 2: | The Organization believes it had no uncertain income tax positions as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 in accordance with ASC 740 "Income Taxes", which provides standards for establishing and classifying any tax provisions for uncertain tax positions. |
