        <ReturnReference>Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>During 2010, the Organization adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10 (previously Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes). The Organization undergoes an annual analysis of its various tax positions, assessing the likelihood of those positions being upheld upon examination with relevant tax authorities. The implementation of this standard had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements. As of both the date of adoption and as of September 30, 2010, no amounts were recorded as a result of this analysis. If the Organization is subject to interest or penalties on underpaid income taxes, they will be recorded as income tax expense. The Organization believes it is no longer subject to Federal and State tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007.</Explanation>
