For the Society and the Foundation, managements judgement requiring an evaluation of uncertain tax positions fall in three areas 1. If the Society and the Foundation continue to meet the eligibility requirements for not-for-profit staus in all tax jurisdictions where they conduct business. |
| X | 2 continued | 2. If the Society and Foundation have properly identified all unrelated business income elements subject to tax even with the not-for-profit status. 3. If the Society and Foundation have properly allocated expenses between jurisdictions and between taxable and non-taxable revenue elements in determining income subject to tax. Management has concluded that there are no tax positions in these financial statements which are more likely than not to fail upon examination by a taxing authority. |
| X | 2 continued | Therefore, the full tax benefits and consequences of its tax positions have been recorded in these statements. There are no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2010 and 2009. Management is not aware of any positions for which it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefit will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date. No recent tax year has been closed by an audit by taxing authorities. |

| I | 1 | On September 30, 2010, the Society purchased the remaining 97.5 outstanding ownership interests in Tooling University, LLC. Prior to that date, the Society had been a 2.5 owner of the LLC. Before the purchase, Tooling U was majority owned by a former SME Board of Directors member and his family. The former SME Board of Directors member resigned from the Board prior to the contract negotiations. In addition, the SME Board of Directors utilized legal and valuation advisors in arriving at the determination of the fair value for the business. The Society believes it paid fair market value for Tooling University, LLC. |
