IN THE EVENT THAT THE FAIR VALUE OF DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS FALLS BELOW THE LEVEL REQUIRED TO BE MAINTAINED IN PERPETUITY, THE RESULTING DEFICIENCY IS RECORDED AS A REDUCTION OF UNRESTRICTED NET ASSETS. THE SCHOLARSHIP FUND IS TO BE INVESTED WITH PRUDENT LEVELS OF RISK AND WITH THE EXPECTATION THAT LONG-TERM TOTAL RETURNS (YIELD PLUS APPRECIATION) WILL PRESERVE OR INCREASE THE REAL VALUE OF THE FUND (ADJUSTING FOR INFLATION) AFTER RELEASING CASH TO SUPPORT SCHOLARSHIP GRANTS AND OPERATIONAL EXPENSES. THE FUND IS TO BE BROADLY DIVERSIFIED AMONG EQUITY INVESTMENTS (EXPECTED TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST TOTAL RETURNS AND BEST INFLATION HEDGE OVER THE LONG TERM ALTHOUGH WITH THE HIGHEST VOLATILITY), FIXED-INCOME INVESTMENTS (PROVIDING STEADY INCOME AND A STABILIZING INFLUENCE), AND CASH EQUIVALENTS (PROVIDING LIQUIDITY AND SAFETY OF PRINCIPAL). INVESTMENT RISKS ARE TO BE CONSIDERED WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE ENTIRE SCHOLARSHIP FUND AND A LONG-TERM HORIZON. THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES ARE TO PROVIDE AN AVERAGE ANNUAL, REAL BASIS, TOTAL RETURN OF 4.5% OR HIGHER AND TO HAVE SOUND PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO MARKET INDICES AND PEER GROUPS TAILORED TO EACH ASSET CLASS, OVER A 3 TO 5-YEAR TIME HORIZON. PART X, LINE 2: IN THE PREPARATION OF THE TAX RETURNS, TAX POSITIONS ARE TAKEN BASED ON INTERPRETATION OF FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL INCOME TAX LAWS. MANAGEMENT PERIODICALLY REVIEWS AND EVALUATES THE STATUS OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS AND MAKES ESTIMATES OF AMOUNTS, INCLUDING INTEREST AND PENALTIES, ULTIMATELY DUE OR OWED. NO AMOUNTS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED, OR RECORDED, AS UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAX RETURNS GENERALLY REMAIN OPEN FOR EXAMINATION BY THE VARIOUS TAXING AUTHORITIES FOR A PERIOD OF THREE TO FOUR YEARS. 1 CALEDONIA EA 825 NORTH WARRIOR AVENUE CALEDONIA MN 55921 237125646 501(C)(5) 7165 0 SPRING 2025 BFCL GRANT GROSSE POINTE-EA 18348 MACK AVE GROSSE POINTE FARMS MI 48236 510147226 501(C)(5) 7200 0 SPRING 2025 BFCL GRANT KALAMAZOO COUNTY EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 4341 S WESTNEDGE AVE STE 1210 12 KALAMAZOO MI 49009 381645960 501(C)(5) 8912 0 2024-25 TRAINING GRANT, TRAINING GRANT - 5AB TREASURER TRAINING, 5AB KCEA FAMILY FUN NIGHT, 5AB KCEA PIE AWARDS, SPRING 2025 BFCL GRANT KENTWOOD EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 8959 PICTURED ROCK DR BYRON CENTER MI 49315 382522022 501(C)(5) 5501 0 LOCAL RELEASE TIME GRANT LAKES AREA COORDINATING COUNCIL 2625 E OAKLEY PARK RD STE 200 COMMERCE TWP MI 48390 273704092 501(C)(5) 6610 0 2024-25 TRAINING GRANT MEA 11-CDE COORDINATING COUNCIL 406 N HAMILTON ST 113 SAGINAW MI 48602 273566972 501(C)(5) 5284 0 2024-25 TRAINING GRANT, 2024/2025 SUBSIDY GRANT MEA 6-E COORDINATING COUNCIL 39090 GARFIELD RD STE 101 CLINTON TWP MI 48038 874547007 501(C)(5) 10678 0 2024/25 MEMBER ENGAGEMENT/TRAINING ASSISTANCE,2024-25 TRAINING GRANT, 2024/25 SUBSIDY GRANT MEA REGION 2 40500 ANN ARBOR RD E STE 100 PLYMOUTH MI 48170 453977673 501(C)(5) 7691 0 REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY 2024-25, REGION COORDINATING COUNCIL REIMB FOR 2024-25, REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY 2025-26 MEA REGION 3 757 RED FOX TRAIL DUNDEE MI 48131 382813468 501(C)(5) 6428 0 REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY FOR 2024/25, REGION COORDINATING COUNCIL REIMB FOR 2024-25, REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY 2025-26 MEA REGION 6 COUNCIL 6382 WALKER DR TROY MI 48085 382785518 501(C)(5) 8175 0 REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY FOR 2024/25, REGION COORDINATING COUNCIL REIMB FOR 2024-25, REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY 2025-26 MEA REGION 7 COUNCIL 12060 HICKORY WEST UTICA MI 48315 382750079 501(C)(5) 6492 0 REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY FOR 2024/25, REGION COORDINATING COUNCIL REIMB FOR 2024-25 MEETINGS, REGION COUNCIL SUBSIDY 2025-26 MSU APA 3474 ALAIEDON PARKWAY SUITES 100-400 OKEMOS MI 48864 382491031 501(C)(5) 39250 0 8-H TG DISBURSEMENT- MEMBER ENGAGEMENT, SPRING 2025 BFCL GRANT TROY EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 17500 WEST 11 MILE ROAD SUITE 200 LARTHRUP VILLAGE MI 48076 382124327 501(C)(5) 17500 0 SPRING 2025 BFCL GRANT 0 13 PART I, LINE 2: MEA REQUIRES THAT ALL EXPENDITURES USING GRANT PROCEEDS BE DOCUMENTED AND SUBMIT TO THE ISSUING DEPARTMENT/ZONE FOR REVIEW.
