Dear Applicant:
Based on information you supplied, and assuming your operations will be as
stated in your application for recognition of exemption, we have determined you
are exempt from federal income tax under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue
Code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3).
Because you are a newly created organization, we are not now making a
final determination of your foundation status under section 509(a) of the Code.
However, we have determined that you can reasonably expect to be a publicly
supported organization described in sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi).
Accordingly, during an advance ruling period you will be treated as a
publicly supported organization, and not as a private foundation. This advance
ruling period begins and ends on the dates shown above.
Within 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period, you must
send us the information needed to determine whether you have met the require-
ments of the applicable support test during the advance ruling period. If you
establish that you have been a publicly supported organization, we will classi-
fy you as a section 509(a)(1) or 509(a)(2) organization as long as you continue
to meet the requirements of the applicable support test. If you do not meet
the public support requirements during the advance ruling period, we will
classify you as a private foundation for future periods. Also, if we classify
you as a private foundation, we will treat you as a private foundation from
your beginning date for purposes of section 507(d) and 4940.
Grantors and contributors may rely on our determination that you are not a
private foundation until 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period.
If you send us the required information within the 90 days, grantors and
contributors may continue to rely on the advance determination until we make

that you exceed the $25,000 filing threshold even if your sources of support
do not satisfy the public support test-specified in the heading of this letter.
If a return is required, it must be filed by the 15th day of the fifth
month after the end of your annual accounting period. A,penalty of $20 a day
is charged when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable cause for
the delay. However, the maximum penalty charged cannot exceed $10,000 or
5 percent of your gross receipts for the year, whichever is less. For
organizations with gross receipts exceeding $1,000,000 in any year, the penalty
is $100 per day per return, unless there is reasonable cause for the delay.
The maximum penalty for an organization with gross receipts exceeding
$1,000,000 shall not exceed $50,000. This penalty may also be charged if a
return is not complete. So, please be sure your return is complete before you
file it.
You .are not required to file federal income tax returns unless you are
subject to the tax on unrelated business income under section 511 of the Code.
If you are subject to this tax, you must file an income tax return on Form
990-T, Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return. In this letter we are
not determining whether any of your present or proposed activities are unre-
lated trade or business as defined in section 513 of the Code.
You are required to make your annual information return, Form 990 or
Form 990-EZ, available for public inspection for three years after the later
ofl the due date of the return or the date the return is filed. You are also
required to make available for public inspection your exemption application,
any supporting documents, and your exemption letter. Copies of these
documents are also required to be provided to any individual upon written or in
person request without charge other than reasonable fees for copying and
postage. You may fulfill this requirement by placing these documents on the
Internet. Penalties may be imposed for failure to comply with these
requirements. Additional information is available in Publication 557,
Tax-Exempt Status for Your Organization, or you may call our toll free
number shown above.
You need an employer identification number even if you have no employees.
If an employer identification number was not entered on your application, we
will assign a number to you and advise you of it. Please use that number on
all returns you file and in all correspondence with the Internal Revenue
Service.
If we said in the heading of this letter that an addendum applies, the
addendum enclosed is an integral part of this letter.
Because this letter could help us resolve any questions about your exempt
status and foundation status, you should keep it in your permanent records.
We have sent a copy of this letter to your representative as indicated
in your power of attorney.
