Return Reference	Explanation
PART X, LINE 2:	AQHA IS QUALIFIED UNDER SECTION 501 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC); THEREFORE, THE MAJORITY OF ITS INCOME IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAX UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(C)(5). INCOME FROM CERTAIN OPERATIONS OF AQHA, PRIMARILY ADVERTISING IN ITS PUBLICATIONS, IS TAXABLE FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND 2014, AQHA DID NOT INCUR ANY FEDERAL INCOME TAX EXPENSE. ALL OTHER OPERATIONS OF AQHA ARE EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAX. AQHF CLAIMS EXEMPTION FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC AND IS RECOGNIZED AS A PUBLIC CHARITY UNDER SECTION 509(A)(3) OF THE IRC. AQHA'S WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY RGP WAS CONVERTED TO A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY ON JUNE 3, 2014, AND IS THEREFORE CONSIDERED A DISREGARDED ENTITY FOR TAX PURPOSES AS SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND NOT SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL TAX FILINGS PER THE IRC. FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD (FASB) PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR HOW UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED, MEASURED, DISCLOSED AND PRESENTED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THIS REQUIRES THE VALUATION OF TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN THE COURSE OF PREPARING THE ASSOCIATION'S TAX RETURN TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE TAX POSITIONS ARE "MORELIKELYTHANNOT" OF BEING SUSTAINED "WHEN CHALLENGED OR "WHEN EXAMINED" BY THE APPLICABLE TAX AUTHORITY. TAX POSITIONS NOT DEEMED TO MEET THE MORELIKELYTHANNOT THRESHOLD WOULD BE RECORDED AS A TAX BENEFIT OR EXPENSE AND LIABILITY IN THE CURRENT YEAR. MANAGEMENT HAS DETERMINED THAT THERE ARE NO MATERIAL UNCERTAIN INCOME TAX POSITIONS.
