THE MAJORITY OF GLAZA'S ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE UNRESTRICTED BEQUESTS WHICH THE BOARD HAS DESIGNATED TO BE TREATED AS ENDOWMENT. THESE UNRESTRICTED FUNDS (PRINCIPAL AND DISTRIBUTIONS) HAVE BEEN USED AT TIMES TO GUARANTEE GLAZA'S COMMITMENTS TO FUND CERTAIN MASTER PLAN PROJECTS WHILE GLAZA WAS STILL RAISING THE FUNDS FROM DONORS. THESE UNRESTRICTED FUNDS ARE USED NOW TO COLLATERALIZE A LINE OF CREDIT THAT PROVIDES A GUARANTEE FOR GLAZA'S COMMITMENT TO THE ELEPHANTS OF ASIA PROJECT, FOR WHICH IT IS RAISING FUNDS FROM DONORS. GLAZA EXPECTS TO FULLY RAISE THE PROJECT FUNDS, AND RELEASE THE LINE OF CREDIT AND THESE UNRESTRICTED FUNDS BEING USED AS COLLATERAL. GLAZA'S PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS HAVE BEEN LARGELY GIVEN BY DONORS FOR A SPECIFIC AREA OF SUPPORT: EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, THE DOCENT PROGRAM, AND ZOO EXHIBIT IMPROVEMENTS. WITH ALL ENDOWMENT FUNDS, GLAZA HAS ADOPTED A DISTRIBUTION POLICY THAT WHILE ALLOWING FOR CURRENT DISTRIBUTIONS, PLACES AN EMPHASIS ON LONG-TERM GROWTH OF THE ENDOWMENT FUNDS SO THAT THEY CAN PROVIDE INCREASING OPERATIONAL SUPPORT IN THE FUTURE. PART X, LINE 2: IN ACCORDANCE WITH FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD ("FASB") ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION ("ASC") TOPIC NO. 740, "UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES" ("ASC 740"), GLAZA RECOGNIZES THE IMPACT OF TAX POSITIONS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IF THAT POSITION IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED ON AUDIT, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. TO DATE, GLAZA HAS NOT RECORDED ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS. GLAZA RECOGNIZES POTENTIAL ACCRUED INTEREST AND PENALTIES RELATED TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS IN INCOME TAX EXPENSE. DURING THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015, GLAZA PERFORMED AN EVALUATION OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS AND DID NOT NOTE ANY MATTERS THAT WOULD REQUIRE RECOGNITION IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR WHICH MAY HAVE AN EFFECT ON ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS. THE FEDERAL AND STATE OF CALIFORNIA INCOME TAX RETURNS FOR GLAZA STILL OPEN AND SUBJECT TO IRS OR STATE OF CALIFORNIA EXAMINATION ARE AS FOLLOWS: FEDERAL (2011 - 2014) AND STATE (2010-2014).
