        <FormAndLineReferenceDesc>SCHEDULE A, PART II, SECTION C, LINE 17A</FormAndLineReferenceDesc>
        <ExplanationTxt>10% FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST THIS STATEMENT IS ATTACHED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE A (FORM 990) REGARDING AN ORGANIZATION THAT BELIEVES IT IS PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ACCORDING TO APPLICABLE REGULATIONS. TREAS. REG. SEC. 1.170A-9(F)(3) PROVIDES THAT AN ORGANIZATION MAY BE TREATED AS "PUBLICLY SUPPORTED" UNDER THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST EVEN IF IT FAILS TO MEET THE 33 1/3 PERCENT MECHANICAL TEST. UNDER THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST, AN ORGANIZATION WILL BE TREATED AS PUBLICLY SUPPORTED IF IT NORMALLY RECEIVES A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF ITS SUPPORT FROM GOVERNMENTAL UNITS, FROM DIRECT OR INDIRECT CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC, OR FROM A COMBINATION OF THESE SOURCES, AND MEETS CERTAIN OTHER REQUIREMENTS. THE PERTINENT FACTORS SET FORTH IN THE REGULATIONS ARE DISCUSSED BELOW: II) ATTRACTION OF PUBLIC SUPPORT OMEGA MEDICAL GRANTS ASSOCIATION ("OMEGA") IS ORGANIZED AND OPERATED TO ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL PUBLIC SUPPORT ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. OMEGA MAINTAINS A CONTINUOUS AND BONA FIDE PROGRAM FOR SOLICITATION OF FUNDS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC including corporate contributors in the areas of medical technology, pharmaceutical and biotechnology products. III) PERCENTAGE OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT UNDER THE REGULATIONS, THE HIGHER THE PERCENTAGE OF SUPPORT ABOVE THE 10% REQUIREMENT FROM PUBLIC SOURCES THE LESSER WILL BE THE BURDEN OF ESTABLISHING THE PUBLICLY SUPPORTED NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH OTHER FACTORS. THE PERCENTAGE OF SUPPORT RECEIVED FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 IS 13.27%. IV) SOURCES OF SUPPORT OMEGA EXCEEDS THE 10% MINIMUM THRESHOLD BY DERIVING SUPPORT FROM NUMEROUS UNRELATED CORPORATE CONTRIBUTORS, RATHER THAN RECEIVING ALMOST ALL OF ITS SUPPORT FROM THE MEMBERS OF A SINGLE FAMILY. OMEGA'S ACTIVITIES APPEAL TO A BROAD CROSS-SECTION OF PERSONS NATIONWIDE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN SUPPORTING THE ORTHOPAEDIC FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM, THE FOUNDATIONAL COMPONENTS OF ORTHOPAEDIC PRACTICE AND PROFESSIONALISM. OMEGA DOES NOT LIMIT ITS ACTIVITIES TO A PARTICULAR COMMUNITY, limited group, or region and maintains a transparent, conflict-free, arms-length process for determining grant recipients based upon a merit-based approach. V) REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNING BODY OMEGA HAS A GOVERNING BODY REPRESENTATIVE OF THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE PUBLIC, HAVING SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERTISE IN THE PARTICULAR FIELD IN WHICH THE ORGANIZATION OPERATES. VI) AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC FACILITIES OR SERVICES; PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN PROGRAMS OR POLICIES OMEGA PROVIDES SERVICES DIRECTLY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC ON A CONTINUING BASIS, INCLUDING AWARDING AND ADMINISTeRING GRANTS FOR GRADUATE ORTHOPAEDIC MEDICAL EDUCATION THROUGH AN OPEN, ACCESSIBLE PROCESS DESIGNED TO SAFEGUARD AGAINST POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TO ENSURE TRANSPARENCY IN THE ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES.</ExplanationTxt>
