Form And Line ReferencePart X, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Plan's administrator and the Plan's counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. U.S. GAAP requires Plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that, more likely than not, would not be sustained upon examination by the U.S. Federal, state, or local taxing authorities. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Typically, plan tax years will remain open for three years; however, this may differ depending upon the circumstance of the Plan.ExplanationTxt
