        <Explanation>THE UNIVERSITY HAS A TAX DETERMINATION LETTER FROM THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE STATING THAT IT QUALIFIES UNDER THE PROVISION OF THE APPLICABLE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES HAS BEEN MADE IN THE ACCOMPANYING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. MANAGEMENT EVALUATED THE UNIVERSITYS TAX POSITIONS AND CONCLUDED THAT THE UNIVERSITY HAD TAKEN NO UNCERTAIN TAX PROVISIONS THAT REQUIRE ADJUSTMENT TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARD BOARDS (FASB) GUIDANCE ON ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES. WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS, THE ORGANIZATION IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO INCOME EXAMINATIONS BY THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL TAX AUTHORITIES FOR YEARS BEFORE 2007.</Explanation>
