        <ExplanationTxt>The Association is exempt from federal and state taxes on income by provision of Section 501(c)(12) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Association applies the provisions of Topic 740 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Association annually reviews its tax return and positions taken in accordance with the recognition standards. The Association believes that it has no uncertain tax positions which would require disclosure or adjustment in these financial statements.</ExplanationTxt>
