Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 The School is exempt from federal income taxation by virtue of being an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). Nevertheless, the School may be subject to tax on income unrelated to its exempt purpose, unless that income is otherwise excluded by the Code. The School recognizes the tax effects from an uncertain tax position in the financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the technical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. Management believes that there are no uncertain tax positions within its financial statements. Additionally, the School has processes presently in place to ensure the maintenance of its tax-exempt status, to identify and report unrelated business income, determine its filing and tax obligations in jurisdictions for which it has nexus, and to review other matters that may be considered tax positions.

However, Schedule B is made available to any Audit Committee member upon request) is first conducted by the Vice President for Finance and Business with the Audit Committee at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Audit Committee. This review highlights significant aspects of the return. Subsequent to the Audit Committee meeting a copy of the public portions of the 990 tax return(Schedule B is not included) is provided to each voting Board member. In addition, the Audit Committee's review of the tax return is reported during a regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Trustees prior to the filing of the return. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c On an annual basis, each Board member, officer and key employee is provided with a copy of the Conflict of Interest Policy and a disclosure form to identify any known or potential conflict. The disclosure forms are returned to the Vice President for Finance and Business to summarize any conflicts that are identified. The summary includes a description of the conflict and proposed resolution and is presented to the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees for discussion. The Audit Committee then recommends to the Board appropriate action to be taken for each identified conflict. Any member found to have a potential conflict is recused from the deliberations concerning the conflict and also concerning any transactions associated with the conflict. If a conflict arises mid year, a new disclosure form is required to be submitted by the affected individual and another review by the Audit Committee and Board is undertaken. In order to waive a conflict, the policy requires 75% of the voting members to vote in favor of waiving the conflict.

In addition, the Committee utilizes comparable compensation data of other presidents, deans and vice presidents of finance in order to make a compensation recommendation to the entire Board of Trustees. The deliberations by the Compensation Committee and Board of Trustees are held solely by the members without management or staff involved in those deliberations. The President and Dean is responsible for determining the compensation of their direct reports (key employees). The compensation review includes examining comparable compensation data for similar positions.
