THE INVESTMENT EARNINGS ON THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE NOT RESTRICTED AND ARE CONSIDERED UNRESTRICTED/BOARD DESIGNATED FUNDS WITH INTENDED USES PRIMARILY TO COVER EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH TBPAC'S ARTS EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAMMING. INVESTMENT INCOME RETURN FROM THE STATE ENDOWMENT HELPS ENSURE THAT THE PERFORMING ARTS REMAIN AN INTEGRAL PART OF EVERY CHILD'S EDUCATION. TBPAC'S OVERALL ARTS MANAGEMENT PHILOSOPHY AFFIRMS A COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF ARTISTIC PERFORMANCES, OUTREACH, ACCESSIBILITY AND AUDIENCE DEVELOPMENT FOR ALL CONSTITUENT GROUPS. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED IN LARGE PART THROUGH MULTICULTURAL EDUCATIONAL AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS.

PERMANENT ENDOWMENT FUNDS HELD IN TRUST BY THE TAMPA BAY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FOR THE BENEFIT OF TBPAC, INC. CONSIST OF DISTRIBUTION AND USAGE OF INVESTMENT EARNINGS FOR BOTH UNRESTRICTED AND RESTRICTED DONOR DESIGNATED PURPOSES. THE USAGE OF THE UNRESTRICTED EARNING ALLOWS TBPAC THE FLEXIBILITY TO USE THE INVESTMENT INCOME RETURN AS BEST SERVES THE ORGANIZATION'S IMMEDIATE CHALLENGES AND FUNDING REQUIREMENTS AS APPROVED BY THE BOARD. INTERNAL GUIDELINES FOR UNRESTRICTED EARNINGS ALLOW USAGE FOR OPERATING EXPENSES FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AND PROGRAMMING ACTIVITIES AS WELL AS SPECIAL PROJECTS. THE RESTRICTED DONOR DESIGNATIONS ON USAGE OF INVESTMENT EARNINGS ARE RELATED TO EDUCATION MUSIC PROGRAMMING. 3) RELATED ORGANIZATION - TAMPA BAY PERFORMING ARTS CENTER FOUNDATION, INC. - PERMANENT ENDOWMENT FUNDS HELD BY TBPAC FOUNDATION, INC. PROVIDE FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO TBPAC, INC. AND USAGE OF INVESTMENT EARNINGS FOR BOTH UNRESTRICTED AND RESTRICTED DONOR DESIGNATED PURPOSES. THE USAGE OF THE UNRESTRICTED EARNINGS ALLOWS TBPAC THE FLEXIBILITY TO USE THE INVESTMENT INCOME RETURN AS BEST SERVES THE ORGANIZATION'S IMMEDIATE CHALLENGES AND FUNDING REQUIREMENTS AS APPROVED BY THE BOARD. INTERNAL GUIDELINES FOR USE OF BOARD DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT (BOTH PRINCIPAL AND INVESTMENT RETURN) ALLOW USAGE FOR OPERATING EXPENSES, SPECIAL PROJECTS FOR BOTH THE CENTER AND FOUNDATION, COLLATERALIZATION FOR SECURING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, SPENDING POLICY DISTRIBUTIONS TO THE TBPAC, INC. AND DESIGNATION AS PERMANENT ENDOWMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH BOARD INTERPRETATION OF RELEVANT STATE LAW. THE RESTRICTED DONOR DESIGNATIONS ON USAGE OF INVESTMENT EARNINGS ARE RELATED TO A) EDUCATION PROGRAMMING COVERING GENERAL ADMINISTRATION, OPERA, MUSIC, SPECIFIC SCHOOL ACTIVITIES, AS WELL AS B) OPERA PROGRAMMING AND C) THEATRE PROGRAMMING ACTIVITIES.
Part X, Line 2: The Straz Center is exempt from income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Management has evaluated the effect of the guidance provided by U.S. GAAP on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Management believes that the Straz Center continues to satisfy the requirements of a tax-exempt organization as of September 30, 2016. Management believes that the unrelated business income generated by the Straz Center is not material to the consolidated financial statements.
