SCHEDULE F, PART I, LINE 3   INVESTMENTS IN FOREIGN REGIONS - THE 2011 FORM 990 REQUIRES ORGANIZATIONS TO INCLUDE IN COLUMN (F) THE BOOK VALUE OF ITS PASSIVE INVESTMENTS IN FOREIGN REGIONS AS OF THE END OF THE YEAR. ACCORDINGLY, YESHIVA UNIVERSITY HAS INCLUDED THESE AMOUNTS IN THE REGIONS WHERE THE INVESTMENT VEHICLES ARE DOMICILED. YESHIVA UNIVERSITY'S GENERAL LEDGER SYSTEMS CURRENTLY DO NOT TRACK AMOUNTS BY COUNTRY AND DO NOT PROVIDE A BASIS FOR ESTIMATING SUCH AMOUNTS. IN ACCORDANCE WITH INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE GUIDANCE, IF, UNDER A UNIVERSITY'S CURRENT ACCOUNTING PROCEDURES, EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH A FOREIGN ACTIVITY ARE NOT SEPARATELY TRACKED, SUCH EXPENSES ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BE INCLUDED IN COLUMN (F). HOWEVER, THE UNIVERSITY HAS, WHERE POSSIBLE, ALLOCATED CERTAIN FOREIGN ACTIVITY EXPENSES TO THE APPROPRIATE REGION IN COLUMN (F). THE REMAINING FOREIGN ACTIVITY EXPENSES THAT COULD NOT BE PROPERLY ALLOCATED BY REGION HAVE BEEN INCLUDED COLUMN (F) FOR THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA. SIMILARLY, THE UNIVERSITY'S SYSTEM DOES NOT TRACK THE NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR CONTRACTORS BY COUNTRY. THEREFORE, THE UNIVERSITY HAS LISTED A "1" IN COLUMN C FOR EACH REGION IN WHICH IT KNOWS IT HAS AT LEAST ONE EMPLOYEE, AGENT OR CONTRACTOR. THE UNIVERSITY IS CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF IMPLEMENTING A NEW GENERAL LEDGER AND REPORTING SYSTEM THAT WILL ALLOW FOR MORE ACCURATE REPORTING OF FOREIGN EXPENDITURES IN THE FUTURE.
