Part X	Part X : FIN48 Footnote	Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require management of an organization to evaluate tax positions taken by the organization and recognize a tax liability if the organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed the Combined Fund's tax positions taken by the Combined Fund, and has concluded that as of September 30, 2010, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 19	Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available	The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest and financial statements available to the public by providing copies upon request or inspection at the office of the organization.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b	Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key Employees	The UMWA Combined Benefit Fund ("the Plan") receives administrative services jointly with other health and pension plans serving retirees of the coal mining industry. These plans are collectively referred to as the UMWA Health & Retirement Funds ("the Funds"). Pursuant to administrative services agreements, the UMWA 1974 Pension Trust serves as Master Administrative Entity for the other plans and employs the administrative staff of the Funds. Compensation of the Executive Director and other key staff officers, including heads of all staff departments, is determined by the board of trustees of the 1974 Pension Trust after consultation with the board of trustees of the Plan and other boards of trustees of plans among the Funds. Neither the Executive Director nor any staff officer serves on the Fund's or any of the Funds' boards of trustees.Compensation of the Executive Director and all key staff officers (as well as all other staff employees) is determined based upon results of periodic surveys and analysis conducted by expert outside consultants who gather and review compensation data from comparable positions at comparable organizations. The most recent such survey and analysis was conducted by Buck Consultants in 2009.The reports and supporting documentation of outside compensation consultants and the memoranda and minutes reflecting the boards of trustees' review of these reports and their establishment of compensation of the Executive Director and other key staff officers all constitute the contemporaneous documentation of decisions regarding the compensation arrangement, and all are maintained as part of the records of the Plan and the Funds.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c	Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts	The United Mine Workers of America Combined Benefit Fund requests staff, on an annual basis, to review the organization's conflict of interest policy, to provide a list of potential conflicts of interest to management and to declare that, to the best of their knowledge, they have no other potential conflicts of interest.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 11	Form 990, Part VI, Line 11: Form 990 Review Process	The Trustees, management staff, legal counsel, and independent certified public accountants of the plan have extensively reviewed the prepared Form 990 prior to signing and filing the form with the Internal Revenue Service.
