Smith Interests Inc., a management company owned by the R.E. Smith Testamentary Trust Partnership, a disqualified person. In this capacity, the management company pays expenses on the Foundation's behalf which are later reimbursed from the Foundation's funds. In exchange for these services, the Foundation remitted to R.E. Smith Interests, Inc. a management fee in the amount of $100,000 which represents reasonable payment for such services.The Foundation has answered "yes" to questions 1a (2), (3) and (4) since it pays for services provided either directly or indirectly by a disqualified person as described above. However, the payment for these services is an excepted act under Sec. 4941(d)(2)(E) since the payments are for "personal services" which are necessary to carry out the exempt purposes of the foundation and are "reasonable" in amount as those terms are used in the regulations and other authoritative pronouncements. franklin templeton bonds 3203417 2710733 fx strategy global 2491909 2560344 INVESTMENT - EATON VANCE 4008945 3928379 artisan international 5559191 5261325 charles schwab 444 444 dana 7663016 8824459 dent growth fund 2289383 2437799 dodge & cox 4287836 4112189 doubleline total 4364941 4286139 driehaus active income 1838497 1592581 gargoyle hedge value 3190806 2671998 INVESTMENT - FAYEZ SAROFIM 4602164 7272769 INVESTMENT - INVESTORS TREASURY 686531 686531 ivy asset strategy 1248670 1247821 LEUTHOLD CORE INVESTMENT 2800322 2994478 luther king 4018176 4813677 MITCHELL 6802944 5563152 wcm 1701390 2014688 VANGUARD INTERNATIONAL EXPLOERER 2100783 1949505 4603672 4563343 0 0 RANGER AT COST 2049792 2402746 silchester international AT COST 7669827 7857711 dues 750 0 750 DELIVERY SERVICE and other expenses 905 0 905 Other investment expenses 12109 12109 0 K-1 Passthrough Other Income 48657 48657 48657 OTHER Investment INCOME 9253 9253 9253 MANAGEMENT FEES 100000 50000 50000 Investment Management Fees 430235 430235 0 foreign tax 16957 16957 0 federal excise tax 90000 0 0
