Aspire's Board may determine whether income, if any, will be distributed from the Board restricted fund (endowment), and maintains broad discretion to direct such funds to current operations, capital expenditures or new programs. Under extraordinary circumstances, the endowment fund's corpus also may be designated by the Board to fund any part of Aspire's operations. No such transfers have been authorized since the fund's inception. Part X, Line 2: The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, Aspire may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of Aspire and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the reporting periods presented in the financial statements.

In the event an apparent or potential conflict of interest arises, that board member will recuse his/herself from discussion and voting on all matters that pertain to the conflict of interest. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors approves executive compensation for the CEO.

The Executive Committee also considers performance measures when determining CEO compensation. Documentation of the deliberation and decision regarding the President & CEO's compensation is maintained. The CEO determines the Executive's compensation with the advice of the Executive Committee.
