| Explanation | THE FOUNDATION AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES ARE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND ARE EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. THEREFORE, NO PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES HAS BEEN MADE IN THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, BUT EACH ENTITY IS REQUIRED TO FILE AN ANNUAL INFORMATION TAX RETURN. THEY ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO REVIEW VARIOUS TAX POSITIONS THEY HAVE TAKEN WITH RESPECT TO THEIR EXEMPT STATUS AND DETERMINE WHETHER IN FACT THEY ARE TAX EXEMPT ENTITIES. THE FOUNDATION AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES MUST ALSO CONSIDER WHETHER THEY HAVE NEXUS IN JURISDICTIONS IN WHICH THEY HAVE INCOME AND WHETHER A TAX RETURN IS REQUIRED IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS. IN ADDITION, AS TAX EXEMPT ENTITIES, EACH ENTITY MUST ASSESS WHETHER IT HAS ANY TAX POSITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME SUBJECT TO INCOME TAX. THE ENTITIES DO NOT EXPECT THEIR POSITIONS TO CHANGE SIGNIFICANTLY OVER THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS. ANY PENALTIES RELATED TO LATE FILING OR OTHER REQUIREMENTS WOULD BE RECOGNIZED AS EXPENSE IN THE ENTITIES' ACCOUNTING RECORDS. THE FOUNDATION AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES EACH FILE U.S. FEDERAL FORM 990 FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES. THEIR FEDERAL INCOME TAX RETURNS FOR THE TAX YEARS 2014 AND BEYOND REMAIN SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. SINCE ITS INITIAL INCORPORATION IN 1924, THE FOUNDATION HAS BEEN EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAX UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AS A PUBLIC CHARITY OPERATING A HOSPITAL. DUE TO ITS CONTRIBUTION OF ITS HOSPITAL OPERATIONS TO THE PARTNERSHIP AND ITS NEW GRANT MAKING ACTIVITIES, IT REQUESTED A PRIVATE LETTER RULING FROM THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE TO CONFIRM THE CONTINUATION OF ITS PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS. THE SERVICE DECLINED TO ISSUE SUCH A RULING DUE TO THE NUMBER OF SIMILAR TRANSACTIONS AND ISSUED A REVENUE RULING (REV. RUL. 98-15) DEFINING THE REQUIREMENTS FOR WHOLE HOSPITAL JOINT VENTURES SUCH AS RAPIDES HEALTH SERVICES, LLC. THE SERVICE DECLINED THE FOUNDATION'S REQUEST TO EXAMINE ITS OPERATIONS AND ENTER INTO A CLOSING AGREEMENT. AFTER REV. RUL. 98-15, TWO COURT CASES FOCUSED ON THE CONTROL ISSUE IDENTIFIED BY THE RULING AS DETERMINATIVE OF WHETHER THE JOINT VENTURE JEOPARDIZED THE EXEMPT STATUS OF THE EXEMPT ORGANIZATION. ONE OF THESE, ST. DAVID'S HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, INC. V. UNITED STATES, INVOLVED FACTS VERY SIMILAR TO THOSE PRESENT IN THE FOUNDATION'S OWNERSHIP OF THE LLC, AND WAS A VICTORY FOR THE EXEMPT ORGANIZATION WHOSE STATUS HAD BEEN CHALLENGED. COUNSEL FOR THE FOUNDATION HAS BEEN AT ALL RELEVANT TIMES AND REMAINS OF THE OPINION THAT ANY CHALLENGE TO THE FOUNDATION'S EXEMPT STATUS WOULD BE SIMILARLY DECIDED. THIS OPINION IS BOLSTERED BY REV. RUL. 2004-51, WHICH, WHILE ADDRESSING ANCILLARY ACTIVITY JOINT VENTURES, REPRESENTS AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT BY THE SERVICE THAT SUFFICIENT CONTROL MAY BE MAINTAINED BY THE EXEMPT PARTNER IN SUCH A VENTURE EVEN THOUGH OWNERSHIP AND GOVERNANCE WERE SHARED 50-50 WITH THE FOR-PROFIT VENTURER. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT EVEN IF THE FOUNDATION'S PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS SHOULD NOT CONTINUE, THE FOUNDATION BELIEVES THAT IT WOULD CONTINUE TO BE EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAX UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE CODE AS A PRIVATE FOUNDATION. PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO MORE RESTRICTIONS UNDER THE CODE THAN ARE PUBLIC CHARITIES. THESE RESTRICTIONS INCLUDE STATUTORY PROHIBITIONS AGAINST SELF-DEALING, EXCESS BUSINESS HOLDINGS, JEOPARDY INVESTMENTS, AND TAXABLE EXPENDITURES. IN ADDITION, PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO AN EXCISE TAX ON THEIR NET INVESTMENT INCOME AND ARE REQUIRED TO MAKE ANNUAL DISTRIBUTIONS OF FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE AVERAGE MARKET VALUE OF THEIR NON-CHARITABLE-USE ASSETS FOR CHARITABLE, EDUCATIONAL, SCIENTIFIC, AND SIMILAR PURPOSES. NON-CHARITABLE-USE ASSETS ARE ASSETS THAT ARE NOT USED OR HELD FOR USE DIRECTLY IN CARRYING ON THE ORGANIZATION'S EXEMPT PURPOSE; THEY INCLUDE ASSETS HELD FOR INVESTMENT AND THE PRODUCTION OF INVESTMENT INCOME. PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS ARE REQUIRED TO PUBLISH A NOTICE THAT THEIR ANNUAL REPORTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT CONSIDER THE EFFECTS OF A POSSIBLE RETROACTIVE DETERMINATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE THAT THE FOUNDATION IS NOT EXEMPT FROM TAXATION OR THAT IT IS A NONPROFIT PRIVATE FOUNDATION. SUCH EFFECTS COULD INCLUDE INCOME TAXES ON ITS EARNINGS, A REQUIREMENT THAT IT DIVEST ITSELF OF A PORTION OF THE LLC, EXCISE TAXES ON NET INVESTMENT INCOME AND VARIOUS PENALTIES. THE CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT REQUIRES THAT THE PARTNERSHIP, AND THE OPERATING AGREEMENT OF THE LLC REQUIRES THAT THE LLC, OPERATE IN A FASHION SO AS NOT TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE FOUNDATION'S TAX-EXEMPT STATUS, AND SUPPORT COMMUNITY, CIVIC, CHARITABLE AND CULTURAL ACTIVITIES AT A LEVEL AT LEAST EQUAL TO THAT OF THE RAPIDES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER IN THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1994. IT ALSO CALLS FOR IT TO PROVIDE $2.8 MILLION OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE ANNUALLY TO THE ALEXANDRIA, LOUISIANA COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS CONTINUE HISTORIC LEVELS IN THE OTHER COMMUNITIES WHERE IT HAS HOSPITALS. | ExplanationTxt |

| PART I, LINE 3C: | THE RAPIDES HEALTHCARE SYSTEM (RHS) DOES NOT UTILIZE FPG AS CRITERIA FOR DISCOUNTED CARE. ANY INDIVIDUAL AT INCOME OF 200% OR LESS OF FPG QUALIFIES FOR THE RHS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES (FAP) AND RECEIVES A 100% DISCOUNT ON THEIR BILL. THERE IS NO PROVISION FOR PARTIAL DISCOUNTS ON PATIENT BILLS UNDER THE FAP. ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY UNDER THE FAP RECEIVE AN UNINSURED DISCOUNT ON THEIR BILLS. |
| PART I, LINE 6A: | THE RAPIDES HEALTHCARE SYSTEM (EMPLOYER NO. 61-1267229) PREPARED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT DURING TAX YEAR 2018. |
| PART I, LINE 7: | A. THE COST FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WAS DERIVED USING A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO FROM SCHEDULE H, WORKSHEET 2 APPLIED IN WORKSHEET 1. FAP-ELIGIBLE PATIENT REVENUE IS BASED ON GAAP, AND BAD DEBT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS CALCULATION. NO EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS CALCULATION. PERSONS SERVED ARE THE TOTAL FAP-ELIGIBLE INPATIENT ADMISSIONS PLUS TOTAL FAP-ELIGIBLE OUTPATIENT VISITS.B. UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID COSTS WERE DERIVED USING A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO FROM SCHEDULE H WORKSHEET 2 APPLIED IN WORKSHEET 3. PATIENT REVENUE IS BASED ON GAAP, AND BAD DEBT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS CALCULATION. NO EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS CALCULATION. PERSONS SERVED ARE THE TOTAL MEDICAID INPATIENT ADMISSIONS PLUS TOTAL MEDICAID OUTPATIENT VISITS. |
| PART III, LINE 2: | RRMC RECORDS INSURANCE CONTRACTUAL DISCOUNTS TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS AS WELL AS 100% DISCOUNTS FOR FAP-ELIGIBLE PATIENTS AND INSURED DISCOUNTS FOR UNINSURED NON-FAP-ELIGIBLE PATIENTS. THEN NON-FAP ELIGIBLE PATIENTS ARE BILLED, AND RRMC RECORDS A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS ON THE RECEIVABLES BASED UPON ITS HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE. THE METHODOLOGY TO DETERMINE THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED AT COST ON PART III, LINE 2 IS TO TAKE THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COSTS TO GROSS PATIENT CHARGES AND MULTIPLY THIS RESULTING RATIO BY THE GROSS CHARGES FOR BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | EXCERPT FROM NOTE 3:"THE SYSTEM DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS RELATED TO PATIENTS WHO MEET THE GUIDELINES TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE; THEREFORE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED IN REVENUES. PATIENTS TREATED AT THE SYSTEM'S FACILITIES FOR NON-ELECTIVE CARE, WHO HAVE INCOME AT OR BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, ARE ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE. THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL IS ESTABLISHED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND IS BASED ON INCOME AND FAMILY SIZE. THE SYSTEM PROVIDES DISCOUNTS TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID OR CHARITY CARE. AFTER THE DISCOUNTS ARE APPLIED, THE AMOUNTS EXPECTED TO BE COLLECTED FROM UNINSURED PATIENTS ARE FURTHER REDUCED BY IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS (BASED UPON THE SYSTEM'S HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE) RELATED TO UNINSURED PATENTS IN THE PERIOD THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED RECOGNIZING THE FACT THAT THESE PATIENTS ARE UNLIKELY TO PAY THE FULL AMOUNTS OWED." |
| PART III, LINE 8: | THE SHORTFALL AMOUNT, AS WELL AS OTHER NON-ALLOWABLE EXPENSES INCURRED BY THE SYSTEM IN TREATING MEDICARE PATIENTS REFLECT NECESSARY, ALTHOUGH UNREIMBURSED, COSTS OF PATIENT TREATMENT, THUS THE EXPENSES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT OF THE SYSTEM. THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON PART III, LINES 5-7 HAVE BEEN DETERMINED FROM THE INDIVIDUAL FACILITY COST REPORT FOR RAPIDES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER. |
| PART III, LINE 9B: | UNINSURED PATIENTS ARE FIRST SCREENED TO DETERMINE IF THEY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL OR STATE GOVERNMENTAL HEALTHCARE PROGRAMS (MEDICAID, MEDICARE). WHILE ELIGIBILITY IS BEING DETERMINED, THEIR ACCOUNT IS "PENDING, AND NO BILL IS SENT TO THE PATIENT. IF THE PATIENT IS FOUND NOT TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR SUCH A PROGRAM, THEN THEY ARE SCREENED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE DISCOUNT CHARITY POLICY FOR PATIENTS. RHS DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS WHILE IT ATTEMPTS TO DETERMINE WHETHER UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED PATIENTS MEET ITS GUIDELINES TO QUALIFY FOR GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE OR CHARITY CARE UNDER ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP). THE RAPIDES HEALTHCARE SYSTEM CHARITY CARE POLICY CLEARLY DESCRIBES IN DETAIL THE PROCESS THAT IS FOLLOWED IN DETERMINING WHETHER A PATIENT IS QUALIFIED FOR CHARITY CARE. UNTIL IT IS DETERMINED WHETHER A PATIENT ACCOUNT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE, THE ACCOUNT IS HELD IN A "PENDING" STATE, AND THE ACCOUNT IS NOT BILLED. ONCE AN ACCOUNT IS APPROVED AS FAP-ELIGIBLE BY AN AUTHORIZED MANAGER, THE APPROPRIATE CODE IS POSTED TO THE ACCOUNT IN THE BILLING SYSTEM, THE ACCOUNT IS WRITTEN OFF, AND NO BILL IS SENT TO THE PATIENT. IF AN UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED PATIENT DOES NOT COMPLETE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION INITIALLY, THEY WILL BE BILLED, HOWEVER, THEY WILL RECEIVE A FAP APPLICATION AND COMMUNICATION WITH THEIR BILLS ENCOURAGING THEM TO APPLY. ACCOUNTS ARE NOT SUBMITTED FOR COLLECTION PRIOR TO 120 DAYS FOLLOWING THE ISSUANCE OF THE FIRST PATIENT BILLING. PATIENTS HAVE A TOTAL OF 240 DAYS FOLLOWING THE FIRST BILLING TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, AND SHOULD ANY COLLECTION ACTION BE IN PROCESS AT THE TIME AN APPLICATION IS SUBMITTED, SUCH ACTION WILL BE SUSPENDED WHILE THE APPLICATION IS PROCESSED. |
| PART VI, LINE 2: | IN ADDITION TO THE FORMAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT DIRECTED BY THE RAPIDES HEALTHCARE SYSTEM COMMUNITY BENEFIT COMMITTEE, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF WAYS THAT RAPIDES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER (RRMC) STAFF AND TRUSTEES ASSESS THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF ITS COMMUNITY ON AN ONGOING BASIS. RRMC TRUSTEES, EXECUTIVES AND MANAGERS NETWORK EXTENSIVELY WITH OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO SERVE POPULATIONS IN NEED, SUCH AS OTHER HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS. KEY EXECUTIVES AND MANAGERS ALSO SERVE ON BOARDS OF NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO PROVIDE SERVICES TO POPULATIONS IN NEED. BEGINNING IN DECEMBER 2013, THE PROVISION OF ACUTE CARE MEDICAL, PSYCHIATRIC, URGENT CARE AND EMERGENCY SERVICES, AS WELL AS PRIMARY CARE AND SPECIALTY CLINIC SERVICES FOR THE UN- AND UNDERINSURED AND MEDICAID POPULATIONS OF CENTRAL LOUISIANA SHIFTED TO RRMC AND CHRISTUS HOSPITAL ORGANIZATIONS FROM THE REGION'S LONG-STANDING STATE CHARITY HOSPITAL LOCATED IN PINEVILLE, RAPIDES PARISH. AS A PRIMARY DIRECT PROVIDER OF SAFETY NET SERVICES TO THE INDIGENT POPULATION WITHIN THE SERVICE AREA, RRMC STAFF INTERFACES REGULARLY WITH THAT POPULATION WHILE PROVIDING ROUTINE CLINIC CARE AND IS ABLE TO ASSESS AND ANTICIPATE SPECIALTY AND ACUTE MEDICAL NEEDS AND OFFER BOTH PREVENTIVE AND ACUTE SERVICES. |

ALSO IN THESE LOCATIONS IS A SIGN READING "RAPIDES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES FREE (CHARITY) CARE TO PATIENTS WHO NEED HEALTHCARE, BUT ARE UNABLE TO PAY. ASK US FOR MORE INFORMATION." THERE IS ALSO A POSTED NOTICE TO PATIENTS CONTAINING THE CURRENT POVERTY GUIDELINES SO THAT THEY MAY SEE WHETHER THEY WOULD QUALIFY BASED ON THEIR INCOME. IT READS: "OUR FACILITY OFFERS A CHARITY PROGRAM TO THOSE THAT ARE < 200% OF THE POVERTY GUIDELINES AS DEFINED BELOW. [FPG CHART] ASK THE REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY OF OUR PLAIN LANGUAGE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND APPLICATION IF YOU ARE INTERESTED." AT ADMISSION ALL PATIENTS RECEIVE A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY OF THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION. AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER ADMISSION, ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS ARE SCREENED BY AN ON-SITE THIRD-PARTY FIRM HIRED SPECIFICALLY TO DETERMINE IF PATIENTS MEET GOVERNMENT PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. THE FIRM'S PERSONNEL ARE SPECIFICALLY TRAINED IN MEDICAID, MEDICARE AND OTHER GOVERNMENT PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA AND APPLICATION PROCEDURES. IF THE PATIENT MEETS PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA, THEN ASSISTANCE IS PROVIDED TO THE PATIENT FOR ENROLLMENT. IF THE PATIENT DOES NOT MEET PROGRAM QUALIFICATIONS, THE PATIENT IS ENCOURAGED TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. IF THE PATIENT DOES NOT COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION AT THE TIME OF SERVICE, HE RECEIVES THE PLAIN LANGUAGE POLICY SUMMARY AND AN APPLICATION WITH HIS BILLS. HE IS ALSO REMINDED OF THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE POLICY IN ANY CONVERSATION WITH STAFF CONCERNING BILLING. |

ALSO IN THE REGION ARE A VETERAN'S ACUTE-CARE HOSPITAL, A PHYSICIAN-OWNED SURGICAL HOSPITAL, A RURAL CRITICAL-ACCESS FACILITY, AND ONE SMALL RURAL ACUTE-CARE FACILITY. |
| PART VI, LINE 5: | RAPIDES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER MAINTAINS AN OPEN MEDICAL STAFF; MEDICAL STAFF CREDENTIALING IS STRICTLY BASED UPON EDUCATION, CERTIFICATION AND OTHER GENERALLY ACCEPTED OBJECTIVE PROFESSIONAL REQUIREMENTS. THE HOSPITAL MAINTAINS AN OPEN EMERGENCY ROOM, TREATING ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY.

| PART I, LINE 2: | PRIOR TO FUNDING, GRANTEES DEVELOP AND SUBMIT FOR APPROVAL A WORK PLAN AND BUDGET FOR USE OF THE GRANT FUNDS AWARDED. ON A QUARTERLY OR SEMI-ANNUAL BASIS, THE RAPIDES FOUNDATION (TRF) REQUIRES THAT GRANTEES SUBMIT NARRATIVE REPORTS AND BUDGET EXPENDITURE REPORTS, WHICH COMPARE ACTUAL ACTIVITIES COMPLETED TO APPROVED WORK PLANS AND ACTUAL EXPENDITURES TO APPROVED BUDGETS. AT THE END OF THE GRANT TERM, THE GRANTEES ARE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT SIMILAR CUMULATIVE REPORTS DETAILING THE INTERVENTIONS COMPLETED, EVALUATING THEIR EFFECTIVENESS AND ITEMIZING EXPENSES COMPARED TO THE APPROVED BUDGETS. UNSPENT FUNDS MUST BE REPAID TO THE FOUNDATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH WRITTEN GRANT AGREEMENTS. GRANTEES MAY SUBMIT REQUESTS TO APPROVE BUDGET LINE ITEM CHANGES. AS A PRACTICE TRF DOES NOT APPROVE WORK PLAN OR BUDGET CHANGES WHICH DIVERGE FROM THE ORIGINAL GRANT PURPOSE AND INTENT. TRF, AT ITS EXPENSE AND OPTION, PERFORMS RANDOM, PERIODIC REVIEWS OF THE GRANTEES' INTERNAL RECORDS TO VERIFY THE ACCURACY OF REPORTING. IF APPROPRIATE, REPAYMENT OF INAPPROPRIATE EXPENDITURES IS REQUESTED. FAILURE TO REPORT EXPENDITURES OR TO REPAY UNSPENT OR INAPPROPRIATELY SPENT FUNDS WILL RESULT IN 1) WITHHOLDING OF ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS ON EXISTING GRANTS OR 2) PREVENT CONSIDERATION OF FUTURE GRANT REQUESTS. LARGE GRANT INITIATIVES ARE EVALUATED BY TRF UTILIZING THIRD-PARTY EVALUATION FIRMS. THE EVALUATIONS MEASURE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE CHOSEN INTERVENTION IN ACHIEVING THE INITIATIVE INTENDED OUTCOMES AS WELL AS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INITIATIVE IMPLEMENTATION. EVALUATIONS SERVE TO PROVIDE TRF FEEDBACK WHICH CAN BE UTILIZED TO IMPROVE PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION. |
| SCHEDULE I, PART II: | DURING 2018, THE RAPIDES FOUNDATION RECORDED AMENDMENTS TO GRANTS IN THE AMOUNT OF $(1,591,176.92). THE AMENDMENTS LARGELY RELATED TO PRIOR YEAR GRANTS AND COULD NOT BE ALLOCATED AMONG CURRENT YEAR GRANTS. THEREFORE, ON SCHEDULE I PART II, THERE ARE THREE NEGATIVE GRANT AMOUNTS THAT CORRESPOND TO THE AMOUNT OF AMENDMENTS PER EACH GRANT PROGRAM AREA. |

THE "STAFF CODE OF ETHICS AND CONDUCT" IS MONITORED AND ENFORCED THROUGH ORGANIZATIONAL PROCEDURES, CONTROLS AND DAILY SUPERVISION OF EMPLOYEES BY THE NEXT LEVEL OF MANAGEMENT. THE "TRUSTEE CODE OF ETHICS AND CONDUCT" IS MONITORED AT EACH TRUSTEE BOARD AND COMMITTEE MEETING, BECAUSE THE FIRST AGENDA ITEM IS ONE IN WHICH THE MEETING CHAIRMAN ASKS TRUSTEES TO DISCLOSE ANY POTENTIAL CONFLICTS WITH LISTED AGENDA ITEMS. A TRUSTEE THAT HAS A POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST WITH A MATTER THAT COMES BEFORE THE BOARD OR COMMITTEE IS REQUIRED TO LEAVE THE ROOM BEFORE THE MATTER IS DISCUSSED, AND A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE REMAINING DISINTERESTED BOARD TRUSTEES DETERMINE WHETHER A CONFLICT ACTUALLY EXISTS. IF A CONFLICT IS DETERMINED TO EXIST, THEN THE CONFLICTED TRUSTEE IS NOT ALLOWED TO BE PRESENT DURING BOARD DISCUSSION NOR VOTE ON THE ISSUE CREATING THE CONFLICT.

THE CEO RECOMMENDS THE PAY OF THOSE EMPLOYEES REPORTING DIRECTLY TO HIM AND A SALARY BUDGET FOR THE REMAINING EMPLOYEES OF THE RAPIDES FOUNDATION AND ITS SUPPORTING ORGANIZATIONS TO THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE FOR APPROVAL.
