THE ORGANIZATIONS APPLY THE STANDARDS FOR ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES. THE TAX EFFECTS FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION CAN BE RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, ONLY IF THE POSITION IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED ON AUDIT, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION.

FOR TAX POSITIONS MEETING THE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THRESHOLD, THE AMOUNT RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IS THE LARGEST BENEFIT THAT HAS A GREATER THAN 50 PERCENT LIKELIHOOD OF BEING REALIZED, UPON ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT WITH THE RELEVANT TAX AUTHORITY. BASED ON ITS EVALUATION, THE ORGANIZATIONS HAVE CONCLUDED THAT THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS REQUIRING RECOGNITION IN THEIR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE ORGANIZATIONS ARE NO LONGER SUBJECT TO U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE FOR YEARS PRIOR TO THE 2011 TAX YEAR (FISCAL YEAR ENDED MAY 31, 2012).
