PART X, LINE 2:TRUST II CONSTITUTES A QUALIFIED VOLUNTARY EMPLOYEE BENEFIT ASSOCIATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(9) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC) AND IS, THEREFORE, CONSIDERED TO BE EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(A). TRUST II OBTAINED ITS LATEST DETERMINATION LETTER ON JUNE 13, 1989, IN WHICH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) STATED THAT TRUST II, AS DESIGNED, WAS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF THE IRC. TRUST II HAS BEEN AMENDED SINCE RECEIVING THE DETERMINATION LETTER. HOWEVER, THE TRUST II ADMINISTRATOR BELIEVES THAT THE PLAN IS CURRENTLY DESIGNED AND BEING OPERATED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF THE IRC. ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA REQUIRE PLAN MANAGEMENT TO EVALUATE TAX POSITIONS TAKEN BY THE PLAN AND RECOGNIZE A TAX LIABILITY (OR ASSET) IF THE PLAN HAS TAKEN AN UNCERTAIN POSITION THAT MORE LIKELY THAN NOT WOULD NOT BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY THE IRS. THE PLAN ADMINISTRATOR HAS ANALYZED THE TAX POSITIONS OF THE PLAN, AND CONCLUDED THAT AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2013, THERE ARE NO UNCERTAIN POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN THAT WOULD REQUIRE RECOGNITION OF A LIABILITY (OR ASSET) OR DISCLOSURE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE PLAN IS SUBJECT TO ROUTINE AUDITS BY TAXING JURISDICTIONS; HOWEVER, THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO AUDITS FOR ANY TAX PERIODS IN PROGRESS. THE PLAN ADMINISTRATOR BELIEVES IT IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS FOR YEARS PRIOR TO 2010.
