A QUESTIONNAIRE IS SENT TO ALL BOARD MEMBERS PRIOR TO THE FILING OF THE FORM 990, EDUCATING THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. THE COMMITTEE ON TRUSTEES REVIEWS INITIALLY AND ANNUALLY ALL TRANSACTIONS THAT MAY ARISE OR DO EXIST BETWEEN THE SCHOOL AND INDIVIDUALS WITH ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, TRANSMITTING ITS RECOMMENDATIONS CONCERNING THE APPROPRIATENESS OF ANY SUCH TRANSACTIONS TO THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART IX:
THE ACADEMY ALSO HAS A 16% BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN THE PARKER RANCH FOUNDATION TRUST. THE ACADEMY HAS NOT RECORDED AN ASSET AND RELATED CONTRIBUTION REVENUE FOR ITS BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN THIS TRUST BECAUSE MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT THE FAIR VALUE OF THE TRUST IS NOT DETERMINABLE. ACCORDING TO ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, THE FAIR VALUE OF THE CONTRIBUTION SHOULD BE MEASURED BY USING A VALUATION TECHNIQUE SUCH AS THE PRESENT VALUE OF THE EXPECTED FUTURE CASH RECEIPTS FROM THE TRUST'S ASSETS. DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE TRUST IN PRIOR YEARS HAVE BEEN INCONSISTENT IN AMOUNTS. ACCORDINGLY, MANAGEMENT DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT IT IS FEASIBLE TO CALCULATE THE PRESENT VALUE OF EXPECTED CASH FLOWS FROM THE TRUST. ALTHOUGH THE TRUST HAS REPORTED FAIR VALUE INFORMATION ABOUT ITS ASSETS IN THE PAST, MANAGEMENT IS AWARE THAT A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE ASSETS IS UNDEVELOPED LAND, AND THUS, IS UNCERTAIN AS TO THE CASH FLOWS FROM SUCH LAND. INCOME FROM THE TRUST IS CLASSIFIED AS UNRESTRICTED INVESTMENT INCOME.
