        <Explanation>PCMA HAS RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT IT QUALIFIES AS A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(6) OF THE U.S. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND CORRESPONDING PROVISIONS OF STATE LAW AND, ACCORDINGLY, IS NOT SUBJECT TO FEDERAL OR STATE INCOME TAXES. HOWEVER, PCMA IS SUBJECT TO TAX ON ITS UNRELATED BUSINESS ACTIVITIES. THE ASSOCIATION ADOPTED THE INCOME TAX STANDARD FOR UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS ON JANUARY 1, 2009. AS A RESULT OF THE IMPLEMENTATION, THE ASSOCIATION RECOGNIZED AN INCREASE IN THE LIABILITY FOR UNRECOGNIZED TAX EXPENSES IN 2009. THE INCREASE OF $95,000 WAS TREATED AS A CUMULATIVE EFFECT ADJUSTMENT WHICH INCREASED THE BALANCE OF NET ASSETS ON JANUARY 1, 2009. PCMA'S 2007 THROUGH 2010 TAX YEARS ARE OPEN FOR EXAMINATION BY FEDERAL AND STATE TAXING AUTHORITIES.</Explanation>
