Explanation	THE INTERNET SOCIETY ("ISOC") IS A NONPROFIT CHARITABLE AND EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOUNDED IN 1992. INCORPORATED IN WASHINGTON D.C., USA, HEADQUARTERED IN VIRGINIA, USA WITH SEVEN REGIONAL OFFICES GLOBALLY. ITS MISSION IS TO SUPPORT AND PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE INTERNET AS A GLOBAL TECHNICAL INFRASTRUCTURE, A RESOURCE TO ENRICH PEOPLE'S LIVES, AND A FORCE FOR GOOD IN SOCIETY. ISOC QUALIFIES AS PUBLICLY SUPPORTED UNDER THE "FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES" TEST OF TREAS. REG.1.170A-9(F)(3), BASED ON THE FOLLOWING FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES: 1. ISOC'S PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGE FOR 2021 WAS 13.65% WHICH IS ABOVE THE 10% THRESHOLD. 2. ISOC IS ORGANIZED AND OPERATES TO ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL SUPPORT ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. SINCE ITS FORMATION, ISOC HAS BEEN FUNDED THROUGH BROAD SOURCES OF SUPPORT (AS OPPOSED TO MEMBERS OF A SINGLE FAMILY OR ONLY A FEW DONORS). IT HAS AN EXTENSIVE MEMBERSHIP BASE FROM AROUND THE WORLD, AND IT IS CONTINUALLY WORKING TO EXPAND ITS MEMBERSHIP, INCLUDING ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERS WHO PAY DUES TO PROVIDE BASIC SUPPORT FOR THE MISSION OF ISOC. IT ALSO SOLICITS AND RECEIVES CONTRIBUTIONS FROM INDIVIDUAL DONORS, AS WELL AS GRANTS FROM OTHER NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND FOR-PROFIT COMPANIES. ISOC IS ACTIVELY SEEKING TO INCREASE ITS DONOR BASE BY EXPANDING ITS CHARITABLE SOLICITATION PROGRAMS AND PURSUING ADDITIONAL CHARITABLE GRANTS. 3. ISOC'S SOURCES OF SUPPORT COME FROM ITS MEMBERS, ITS SUPPORTING ORGANIZATIONS, AND DONATIONS AND GRANTS FROM INDIVIDUALS, CORPORATIONS AND GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS. ISOC'S MEMBERS INCLUDE 100 ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING NONPROFITS, GOVERNMENTS, AND ACADEMIC ORGANIZATIONS. ISOC'S ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERS PAY DUES TO SUPPORT THE WORK OF ISOC IN CARRYING OUT ITS MISSION. ISOC ALSO HAS MORE THAN 94,000 INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS. ISOC DOES NOT CHARGE MEMBERSHIP DUES TO ITS INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS SINCE MANY OF THEM ARE LOCATED IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES AND IT DOES NOT WANT THE PAYMENT OF DUES TO BE A BARRIER TO INVOLVING AS BROAD A CONSTITUENCY AS POSSIBLE IN ITS PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES IN FURTHERANCE OF ITS MISSION. ISOC HAS A "DONATE" BUTTON ON ITS WEBSITE THAT MAKES IT CONVENIENT FOR INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS WHO CAN AFFORD TO DO SO TO MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS IN SUPPORT OF ISOC'S MISSION. ISOC IS CONTINUALLY WORKING TO EXPAND ITS BASE OF MEMBERS AND TO SEEK ADDITIONAL GRANT FUNDING. 4. ISOC HAS A REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNING BODY. ISOC'S 12 MEMBER BOARD OF TRUSTEES REPRESENTS THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE PUBLIC RATHER THAN THE INTERESTS OF A LIMITED NUMBER OF DONORS TO THE ORGANIZATION. THE TRUSTEES ARE ELECTED BY ISOC'S ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERS AND CHAPTERS AND APPOINTED BY THE INTERNET ENGINEERING TASK FORCE (A LARGE, OPEN, INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY OF NETWORK DESIGNERS, OPERATORS, VENDORS, AND RESEARCHERS CONCERNED WITH THE EVOLUTION OF THE INTERNET ARCHITECTURE AND THE SMOOTH OPERATION OF THE INTERNET). TRUSTEES ARE ELECTED FOR THEIR EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE IN ISSUES INVOLVING THE INTERNET, AND THEY ALL HAVE SIGNIFICANT BACKGROUNDS IN ISSUES INVOLVING THE WORLDWIDE INTERNET COMMUNITY. ISOC'S 12 TRUSTEES COME FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES AND IN 2021 THEY WERE FROM THE UNITED STATES, ARGENTINA, MEXICO, PAKISTAN, SPAIN, SENEGAL, AND YEMEN. ISOC'S BROAD INTERNATIONAL REPRESENTATION ON ITS BOARD IS REFLECTIVE OF THE WORLDWIDE REACH OF THE INTERNET, AND ISOC'S TRUSTEES BRING WITH THEM BROAD AND DIVERSE VIEWPOINTS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE PUBLIC INTEREST SERVED BY THE ISOC'S ACTIVITIES. THEY ALL SHARE A COMMON COMMITMENT TO ISOC'S MISSION TO INCREASE ACCESS TO THE INTERNET IN AREAS WHERE SUCH ACCESS IS LACKING AND TO MAKE THE INTERNET A FORCE FOR GOOD IN THE WORLD. 5. ISOC ENGAGES IN A VARIETY OF PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES DIRECTLY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC ON A CONTINUING BASIS. ITS PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES HAVE BROAD APPEAL TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC, AROUND THE GLOBE, THAT SHARE AN INTEREST IN THE PROMOTION OF AN OPEN, STABLE, AND GLOBALLY ACCESSIBLE INTERNET INFRASTRUCTURE WORLDWIDE. THIS SHARED INTEREST IN ISOC'S PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES IS REFLECTED IN THE FACT THAT ISOC HAS MORE THAN 94,000 INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS. ISOC HAS MORE THAN 120 ACTIVE CHAPTERS ACROSS SIX CONTINENTS, BRINGING MEMBERS TOGETHER TO RUN PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES DEDICATED TO MAKING A DIFFERENCE LOCALLY, INFORMING POLICY, AND EDUCATING THE PUBLIC ABOUT INTERNET-RELATED ISSUES.

IN ACCORDANCE WITH FASB ASC 740, INCOME TAXES, THE ORGANIZATION RECOGNIZES TAX LIABILITIES FOR UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS WHEN IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT A TAX POSITION WILL NOT BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION AND SETTLEMENT WITH VARIOUS TAXING AUTHORITIES.

THE GUIDANCE ON ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES ALSO ADDRESSES DE-RECOGNITION, CLASSIFICATION, INTEREST AND PENALTIES ON INCOME TAXES, AND ACCOUNTING IN INTERIM PERIODS. WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS, THE ORGANIZATION IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS BY THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL TAX AUTHORITIES FOR YEARS BEFORE FISCAL YEAR 2018.
