Return Reference	Explanation
PART II, LINE 17A	WHILE THE NATIONAL MONUMENTS FOUNDATION, INC.("NMF") FAILED TO MEET THE MECHANICAL "ONE-THIRD OF SUPPORT" TEST IN 2015, IT CLEARLY SATISFIED THE ALTERNATIVE "FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES" TEST OUTLINED IN SECTION 1.170A-9(F)(3) OF THE TREASURY REGULATIONS. SPECIFICALLY, THE TWO REQUIRED FACTORS ARE PRESENT IN THIS CASE: 1. THE ORGANIZATION MUST RECEIVE AT LEAST 10% OF ITS SUPPORT IN THE FORM OF PUBLIC SUPPORT. AS NOTED IN SCHEDULE A TO FORM 990, IN 2015 THE FOUNDATION RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY 30.08% OF ITS TOTAL SUPPORT IN THE FORM OF PUBLIC SUPPORT - AN AMOUNT FAR IN EXCESS OF THE 10% THRESHOLD. 2. THE ORGANIZATION MUST HAVE AN ACTIVE "CONTINUOUS AND BONA FIDE" FUNDRAISING PROGRAM DESIGNED TO ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL PUBLIC SUPPORT. NMF'S STRATEGY FOR PUBLIC SUPPORT IS OUTLINED BELOW: Public support for The National Monuments Foundation (NMF) has continuously increased for three years. Beginning in 2012, the NMF's public support was 23%, but by 2015 it has grown to 29.57% (Exhibit A). Projections show the NMF will exceed 33% public support within the next year with our strategy that leverages existing and emerging assets from the enormously successful exhibition: The Art of Diplomacy: Winston Churchill and the Pursuit of Painting. A new, skilled, and energetic team is building the foundation for the NMF's long term success and sustainability. SHORT-TERM STRATEGY (1-2 years) Two programs ensure the NMF surpasses the 33% public support within this next year. First, we will leverage businesses and individuals newly connected to the NMF from The Art of Diplomacy: Winston Churchill and the Pursuit of Painting. An outpouring of new interest from a range of businesses, foundations, and individuals were a major outcome of the exhibition. The success has spurred a new strategy for the NMF. The Millennium Gate Museum (the primary property of the NMF) will annually host a temporary exhibition to strengthen existing relationships and grow new relationships with donors. Second, the NMF has implemented a membership program at the Millennium Gate Museum. Memberships range from $55 to $1,000. It is designed to engage the community and diversify the donor base. The membership program alone will help the museum surpass the 33% public support test. LONG-TERM STRATEGY (3-10 years) The NMF has three long-term goals to grow its donor base and financial sustainability. First, over the past two years the NMF has grown its board from 5 members to 18, each member having committed to raising or donating $32,000. The NMF will continue to grow its board over the next 1-2 years to 21 members. Second, the NMF's primary fundraising event, the Middelthon-Candler Gala, now popular enough, will be moved from a bi-annual event to an annual event. As an annual event, the gala stabilizes and provides a base number of annual donors. The gala's most successful year will be in 2016 in terms of the number of donors and total funds raised. Finally, the NMF will begin the process of applying for grants from foundations. The NMF had major success receiving foundation grants early in its existence. This strategy opens new donor channels: the membership program, new exhibitions, new board members, and foundation grants. The strategy also enhances a major strength of the NMF: the Middelthon-Candler Gala. The NMF has the team and strategy to reach 33% public support within the years. IN SUM, THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES IN THIS CASE CLEARLY DEMONSTRATE BROAD PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR, AND INTEREST AND INVOLVEMENT IN, THE FOUNDATION'S MISSION AND PROGRAMS. THEREFORE, THE FOUNDATION CONTINUES TO QUALIFY AS A "PUBLICLY SUPPORTED CHARITY" DESCRIBED IN SECTIONS 509(A)(1) AND 170(B)(1)(A)(VI) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.

PART X, LINE 2

The Foundation is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and is classified by the Internal Revenue Service as other than a private foundation. Accordingly, no liability for federal and state income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying statement of financial position. The Foundation annually evaluates all federal and state income tax positions. This process includes an analysis of whether these income tax positions the Foundation takes meet the definition of an uncertain tax position under the Income Taxes Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Codification. In the normal course of business, the Foundation is subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities. In general, the Foundation is no longer subject to tax examinations for tax years ending before December 31, 2012.

PART III LINE 4

The Glenn Gallery The Glenn Gallery, located just inside the entrance of The Millennium Gate, pays tribute to the amazing history of its Atlantic Station site. Originally the Atlantic Station site was the home of Atlantic Steel, a mill that was started at the turn of the Nineteenth Century and later grew into one of the region's most powerful companies, employing more than 2,000 workers. Today, the huge blasting ovens are gone and the long dormant steel plant has given way to an innovative, bustling new community, a "city within a city," with thousands of homes, apartments, shops, stores and office buildings. The Glenn Gallery includes a series of photographic exhibits that introduce visitors to the area's dramatic metamorphosis from thriving steel mill to thriving new town and will showcase the cultural and physical changes that the site has witnessed over the last century. The exhibits will honor all of those associated with the mill from its earliest days, including the ordinary citizens and workers who labored in hot and clamorous foundries to make Atlantic Steel one of the most innovative and productive mid-century mills in the country. Making reference to the mythological Phoenix, a bird that rises triumphantly from the ashes and which has been a part of the City of Atlanta's seal since 1887, the gallery will show how a new and vital urban area arose from the ashes of a reclaimed brownfield. 18th Century Georgia Pioneer Gallery Beginning with pre-Columbian Native American history and 16th century Spanish settlement of the coast, the Georgia Pioneer Gallery focuses on General Oglethorpe's creation of the Colony of Georgia and the enlightenment ideals that were so instrumental in its inception. The gallery contains documents and historical artifacts from the Native Indian, Spanish, British Colonial, and American Revolutionary periods that complement and add dimension to the museum's history exhibit panels. 19th and 20th Century Galleries The galleries narrate the story of Atlanta's and Georgia's early history and the bold leadership that has helped them jointly grow into one of the most important destinations in the world. The exhibition features photographs and artifacts from twenty of Atlanta's pioneering families, names such as Adair, Candler, Glenn, Herndon, Rich, Woodruff, and many others who have helped to shape our social, economic, political, and philanthropic landscape. 21st Century Interactive Gallery In partnership with Georgia Tech's Interactive Media Technology Center, the museum has created an Interactive Philanthropy Gallery that allows visitors to explore Atlanta and how philanthropy has changed the various neighborhoods that comprise this thriving metropolis. Using Nintendo Wii technology in an immersive theater setting, visitors have the opportunity to explore Atlanta's history. In the second interactive component, a projection visualizes Atlanta's evolution over the past 150 years, giving visitors the chance to switch between historic and contemporary images of our city's major landmarks with a simple wave of the hand. The Tocqueville Corridor In Tocqueville Corridor, visitors will be introduced to the development of philanthropy in the United States. The famous French social philosopher and observer of early American life, Alexis de Tocqueville traveled through Georgia in 1832. A map of his journey and selected quotes from his writings will be displayed in this area. Tocqueville often commented on the generous spirit of Americans, and in his 1840 book, Democracy in America, he wrote that "Americans group together to hold ftes, found seminaries, build inns, construct churches, distribute books, dispatch missionaries to the antipodes. They establish hospitals, prisons, schools by the same method." This observation on the pioneering and ever forward-thinking spirit of early Georgians and early Americans provides the perfect segue to the Philanthropy Gallery. Period Rooms The Millennium Gate features three period rooms: an 18th century Colonial study from Georgia's Declaration of Independence signer Lyman Hall's Midway, Georgia, the 19th century office of Coca-Cola magnate Thomas K. Glenn during his tenure as president of Atlantic Steel and the Trust Company of Georgia simultaneously, and the 20th century drawing room of Pink House, the Rhodes-Robinson home designed by Philip Shutze and Edward Vason Jones.

PART III, LINE 4	TOP EVENTS OF THE FOUNDATIONS PROGRAM: 1. The Art of Diplomacy: Winston Churchill and the Pursuit of painting toured eight cities in Georgia including LaGrange, Sea Island, Columbus, Macon, Atlanta, Rome, Athens, and Savannah. The exhibition was seen by over 60,000 people and ran from August 2, 2014 - July 26, 2015. The president of the National Monuments Foundation gave 41 speeches about the exhibition across the state of Georgia over a year. A full color catalogue was published and distributed to many libraries across the state. The objective of the program was to educate the citizens of Georgia about the history of World War II, Winston Churchill, and Georgia's role during World War II. 2.Chinese Master Artist: I-Hsiung Ju exhbit ran from July 31- October 18, 2015. The works of I-Hsiung Ju show the refinements and delicate strokes of Chinese calligraphy. The brush strokes demand complete mastery since the artists ideas are portrayed immediately with a few strokes. Jus brush has a fascinating disciplined freedom; one can see its sure and firm movements accomplishing silk thread-thin lines to luxuriant swaths of ink, creating infinite variation of shapes, and producing different shades and tints in a single stroke. Ju completed two epic paintings, the 72 foot Ten Thousand Li of the Yangtze and the 45 foot Misty Clouds of Huangshan, both of which will be featured in this exhibition. Additional works of art include: calligraphy and flora and fauna. A series of sumi-e art demonstrations were also given on the opening weekend of July 31 August 1 by Michael Kopald, Virginia Lloyd-Davies, Grace Ju Miller, Charlene Fuhrman-Schulz, Carole Yee, and Jamaliah Morais. On September 12 and 13 Michael Kopald returned to give two more demos, Turner McGehee talked about Prof. Jus life. On September 13, Dr. Carolyn Bloomer gave a talk on Chinese calligraphy. On September 26, October 3, and October 16, Homoon Youn, Masako Horino, Carla Jaranson will demonstrate their art. The presenters are of various heritages (Chinese, British, Malay, American, Korean and Japanese) representing the various cultures embracing East Asian ink-wash painting.
