| PART III, LINE 1A: | THE COLLECTIONS WHICH WERE ACQUIRED THROUGH PURCHASES AND CONTRIBUTIONS SINCE THE ATHENAEUM'S INCEPTION ARE NOT RECOGNIZED AS ASSETS ON THE STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION. PURCHASES OF COLLECTION ITEMS ARE RECORDED AS DECREASES IN UNRESTRICTED NET ASSETS IN THE YEAR IN WHICH THE ITEMS ARE ACQUIRED OR AS RELEASES OF TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS IF THE ASSETS USED TO PURCHASE THE ITEMS WERE RESTRICTED BY DONORS. CONTRIBUTED COLLECTION ITEMS ARE NO REFLECTED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. PROCEEDS FROM DE-ACCESSIONS OR INSURANCE RECOVERIES ARE REFLECTED AS INCREASES IN THE APPROPRIATE NET ASSET CLASSES. THE ATHENAEUM'S COLLECTIONS ARE MADE UP OF BOOKS, ARTIFACTS OF HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE AND ART OBJECTS THAT ARE HELD FOR EDUCATIONAL, RESEARCH, SCIENTIFIC AND CURATORIAL PURPOSES. EACH OF THE ITEMS IS CATALOGED, PRESERVED AND CARED FOR, AND ACTIVITIES VERIFYING THEIR EXISTENCE AND ACCESSING THEIR CONDITION ARE PERFORMED CONTINUOUSLY. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | THE ATHENAEUM'S COLLECTIONS COMPRISE OVER HALF A MILLION VOLUMES, EXTENSIVE HOLDINGS OF PAINTINGS, SCULPTURES, PRINTS, AND PHOTOGRAPHS. PARTICULAR STRENGTHS ARE IN BOSTON HISTORY, NEW ENGLAND STATE AND LOCAL HISTORY, BIOGRAPHY, ENGLISH AND AMERICAN LITERATURE, AND THE FINE AND DECORATIVE ARTS. THE ATHENAEUM SUPPORTS A DYNAMIC EXHIBITION PROGRAM AND SPONSORS A LIVELY VARIETY OF EVENTS SUCH AS LECTURES AND CONCERTS. IT ALSO SERVES AS A STIMULATING CENTER FOR DISCUSSIONS AMONG SCHOLARS, BIBLIOPHILES, AND A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY-INTEREST GROUPS. |
| PART V, LINE 4: | THE ATHENAEUM'S ENDOWMENT CONSISTS OF APPROXIMATELY 490 ENDOWMENT FUNDS ESTABLISHED FOR A VARIETY OF PURPOSES. ITS ENDOWMENT INCLUDES BOTH DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS AND FUNDS DESIGNATED BY THE BOARD TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS. NET ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE CLASSIFIED AND REPORTED BASED ON THE EXISTENCE OR ABSENCE OF DONOR-IMPOSED OR LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. ENDOWMENT FUNDS INCLUDE INVESTED GIFTS. THE ATHENAEUM CLASSIFIES AS PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS (A) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF GIFTS DONATED TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT, (B) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF SUBSEQUENT GIFTS TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT, AND (C) ACCUMULATIONS TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTION OF THE APPLICABLE DONOR GIFT INSTRUMENT AT THE TIME THE ACCUMULATION IS ADDED TO THE FUND. THE REMAINING PORTION OF THE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUND THAT IS NOT CLASSIFIED IN PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS IS CLASSIFIED AS TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS UNTIL THOSE AMOUNTS ARE APPROPRIATED FOR EXPENDITURE BY THE ATHENAEUM IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH THE STANDARD OF PRUDENCE PRESCRIBED BY STATE LAW. |
| PART X, LINE 2: | THE ATHENAEUM ACCOUNTS FOR THE EFFECT OF ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS BASED ON A "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" THRESHOLD TO THE RECOGNITION OF THE TAX POSITIONS BEING SUSTAINED BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION UNDER SCRUTINY BY THE APPLICABLE TAXING AUTHORITY. IF A TAX POSITION OR POSITIONS ARE DEEMED TO RESULT IN UNCERTAINTIES OF THOSE POSITIONS, THE UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFIT IS ESTIMATED BASED ON A "CUMULATIVE PROBABILITY ASSESSMENT" THAT AGGREGATES THE ESTIMATED TAX LIABILITY FOR ALL UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS. THE ATHENAEUM HAS IDENTIFIED ITS TAX STATUS AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND ITS DETERMINATION OF WHICH ACTIVITIES ARE RELATED AND UNRELATED AS ITS ONLY SIGNIFICANT TAX POSITIONS; HOWEVER, THE ATHENAEUM HAS DETERMINED THAT SUCH TAX POSITIONS DO NOT RESULT IN AN UNCERTAINTY REQUIRING RECOGNITION. THE ATHENAEUM IS NOT CURRENTLY UNDER EXAMINATION BY ANY TAXING JURISDICTION. THE ATHENAEUM'S FEDERAL AND STATE TAX RETURNS ARE GENERALLY OPEN FOR EXAMINATION FOR THREE YEARS FOLLOWING THE DATE FILED. |
