THE 457(F)PLAN IS A NONQUALIFIED TAX-DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN AVAILABLE TO A SELECT GROUP OF KEY EXECUTIVES FOR THE INTENT OF SUPPORTING RETENTION AND TO OFFER A COMPETITIVE TOTAL RETIREMENT PROGRAM. ACCOUNT BALANCES HAVE A "SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF FORFEITURE."

HOWEVER, THE 457(F) PLAN CONTAINS A NON-COMPETE PROVISION THAT PROVIDES THE ACCOUNT BALANCE TO BE PAID IN A LUMP SUM AFTER THE EXECUTIVE SATISFIES THE TWO-YEAR NON-COMPETE PERIOD. THIS PROVISION APPLIES TO EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS IF THE EXECUTIVE HAS PROVIDED ELIGIBLE SERVICE FOR SIX OR MORE YEARS. (ELIGIBLE SERVICE IS OFFICER SERVICE THAT PERMITTED THE EXECUTIVE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PLAN.) THE EXECUTIVE WILL RECEIVE THE ENTIRE ACCOUNT BALANCE IF HE/SHE BECOMES DISABLED, DIES OR IF THE EXECUTIVE TERMINATES FOR "GOOD REASON" OR IS INVOLUNTARILY TERMINATED WITHOUT "GOOD CAUSE" WITHIN A 24 MONTH PERIOD AFTER A CHANGE-OF-CONTROL OCCCURS. DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THIS PLAN ARE SUBJECT TO FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL TAXES ON THE ENTIRE ACCOUNT BALANCE UPON DISTRIBUTION.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION	FORM 990, PART XII	RESPONSE TO PART VI TO SCHEDULE K (FORM 990) 1. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART L, LINES A, B, C AND D. MOUNTAIN STATES HEALTH ALLIANCE (MSHA) OWNS AND/OR OPERATES HOSPITALS IN A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT LOCATIONS BOTH IN TENNESSEE AND IN VIRGINIA. AS A RESULT, MSHA MUST UTILIZE CONDUIT GOVERNMENTAL BOND ISSUERS IN A NUMBER OF JURISDICTIONS IN ORDER TO FINANCE IMPROVEMENTS TO ITS HOSPITAL FACILITIES. IN 2008,2009,2010 AND 2011, MSHA WAS THE CONDUIT BORROWER OF TAX-EXEMPT BONDS ISSUED BY MULTIPLE ISSUERS IN TENNESSEE AND VIRGINIA. FOR FEDERAL TAX PURPOSES, EVEN THOUGH DIFFERENT GOVERNMENTAL ISSUERS WERE INVOLVED, THESE MULTIPLE ISSUES IN EACH YEAR WERE REQUIRED TO BE TREATED, AND WERE TREATED, AS A SINGLE "ISSUE" BECAUSE THEY MET THE SINGLE "ISSUE" TEST UNDER THE APPLICABLE FEDERAL TAX REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, MULTIPLE ISSUERS ARE LISTED UNDER LINES A,B,C AND D BECAUSE THE BONDS THAT WERE ISSUED WERE PART OF A SINGLE "ISSUE" FOR FEDERAL TAX PURPOSES. 2. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART LL, LINE 3. LINE 3 FOR THE BOND ISSUES LISTED IN LINES B, C, D AND E DOES NOT MATCH THE APPLICABLE ISSUE PRICE FOR EACH SUCH BOND ISSUE BECAUSE OF INTEREST EARNINGS EARNED ON THE SALE PROCEEDS OF EACH SERIES OF BONDS. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT THE AMOUNTS SHOWN ON LINE 3 FOR THE SAME BOND ISSUES LISTED ON LINES B, C, D AND E ARE DIFFERENT THAN THE AMOUNTS THAT WERE LISTED FOR THE SAME BOND ISSUES SHOWN ON THIS SAME FILING FOR FY2011. THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDE THAT THE AMOUNT OF PROCEEDS TO BE SHOWN ON THIS LINE FOR EACH ISSUE IS THE PROCEEDS "AS OF THE END OF THE 12-MONTH PERIOD." THIS LANGUAGE RESULTED IN OUR LISTING THE AMOUNT OF PROCEEDS EXISTING AS OF THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR, NOT THE AGGREGATE PROCEEDS. AFTER REVIEWING 990 FILING BY A NUMBER OF OTHER ENTITIES, IT APPEARS THAT A MAJORITY OF SUCH ENTITIES LISTED THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF PROCEEDS, NOT THE AMOUNT EXISTING AS OF THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR. FOR THIS 990, MSHA HAS TAKEN THAT SAME APPROACH. A CLARIFICATION IN THE INSTRUCTIONS AS TO THIS ISSUE WOULD BE HELPFUL. 3. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART II, LINE 4 CERTAIN PROCEEDS OF THE BOND ISSUES LISTED IN LINES B, C, AND E ARE DEPOSITED IN REASONABLY REQUIRED RESERVE FUNDS, THE SIZE OF EACH OF WHICH COMPLIES WITH FEDERAL TAX REGULATIONS. THE AMOUNTS SHOWN ON LINE 2 OF PART II OF SCHEDULE K INCLUDE PROCEEDS HELD IN THOSE FUNDS. THESE LINES (OTHER THAN LINE E) ALSO INCLUDE A SMALL AMOUNT OF INVESTMENT EARNINGS RELATIVE TO THESE FUNDS THAT HAD NOT YET BEEN MOVED AS OF THE END OF THE APPLICABLE REPORTING PERIOD TO ANOTHER FUND TO BE USED TO PAY DEBT SERVICE, AS IS PERMITTED UNDER THE APPLICABLE BOND DOCUMENTS. 4. COMMENTS ON SCHEDULE K, PART II, LINES 9 THROUGH 11. THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE UNCLEAR AS TO WHETHER AMOUNTS USED TO REFINANCE SHORT- TERM TAXABLE LOANS INCURRED TO TEMPORARILY FINANCE ELIGIBLE COSTS SHOULD BE SHOWN AS CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND WORKING CAPITAL (LINES 9 AND 10) OR AS OTHER SPENT PROCEEDS(LINE 11). BASED UPON A REVIEW OF OTHER 990 FILINGS, IT APPEARS THAT MOST REPORTING ENTITIES HAVE LISTED THE APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS FOR SUCH PURPOSE UNDER OTHER SPENT PROCEEDS (LINE 11). THIS FILING TAKES THAT APPROACH, AND THEREFORE THE REPORTING ON LINES 9 THROUGH 11 FOR PART IV IS INCONSISTENT WITH REPORTING ON THE SAME LINES FOR THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. 5. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART IV, LINE 12 IT IS UNCLEAR UNDER THE INSTRUCTIONS WHETHER TRANSFERRED PROCEEDS SHOULD BE TREATED AS OTHER UNSPENT PROCEDS FOR REPORTING PURPOSES ON LINE 12. AS AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION. TRANSFERRED PROCEEDS HAVE BEEN INCLUDED ON LINE 12 FOR EACH ISSUE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE. 6. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART IV, LINE 1 AS OF THE REPORTING DATE OF THE 990, THE ONLY ARBITRAGE REBATE CALCULATION THAT WAS REQUIRED RELATED TO THE BONDS DESCRIBED IN LINE E OF PART I (THE SERIES 2006 BONDS). MSHA RETAINED A REBATE CALCULATION AGENT TO CALCULATE WHETHER ANY ARBITRAGE REBATE WAS DUE WITH RESPECT TO THOSE BONDS, AND THERE WAS NEGATIVE ARBITRAGE REBATE LIABILITY IN A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT. THEREFORE, NO FORM 8038-T WAS REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH RESPECT TO THAT BOND ISSUE. 7. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART IV, LINE 4D. PART IV, LINE 4D RELATIVE TO THE BOND ISSUE DESCRIBED ON LINE E SHOWS THAT THE REGULATORY SAFE HARBOR FOR ESTABLISHING FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE GIC DESCRIBED IN LINE 4A WAS NOT SATISFIED. DUE TO MARKET CONDITIONS AT THE TIME, MSHA DID NOT RECEIVE THREE BIDS FOR THIS GIC. HOWEVER, THE YIELD ON THE GIC WAS SO SUBSTANTIALLY BELOW THE YIELD ON THE RELEVANT BONDS THAT THERE WAS NO DOUBT THAT THE YIELD ON THE GIC DID NOT EXCEED THE APPROPRIATE YIELD ON THE RELEVANT BONDS. 8. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART IV, LINE 5. THE BOND ISSUES DESCRIBED IN LINES B, C AND D OF PART I FINANCED SIGNIFICANT CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS TO HOSPITAL FACILITIES. THERE HAVE BEEN UNEXPECTED DELAYS IN THE CONSTRUCTION AND EQUIPPING OF CERTAIN OF THESE HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND THEREFORE NOT ALL OF THE BOND PROCEEDS WERE SPENT WITHIN THE THREE-YEAR TEMPORARY PERIOD RELATIVE TO CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS. HOWEVER, MSHA HAS YIELD RESTRICTED THESE PROCEEDS AFTER THE END OF THE APPLICABLE TEMPORARY PERIOD AND/OR WILL BE MAKING A YIELD REDUCTION PAYMENT WITH RESPECT TO THOSE PROCEEDS, IF REQUIRED. 9. COMMENT ON SCHEDULE K, PART V. MSHA HAS EXECUTED DETAILED TAX CERTIFICATES REQUIRING TAX COMPLIANCE THAT ARE INTENDED TO ENSURE THAT VIOLATIONS OF FEDERAL TAX REQUIREMENTS ARE TIMELY IDENTIFIED. MSHA HAS ALSO ADOPTED SEPARATE PROCEDURES FOR SUCH PURPOSES THAT WERE APPLICABLE DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD.
