PERSONAL INCOME TAX RETURN ENGAGEMENT LETTER (continued)

Unless otherwise advised, you confirm that expenses such as meals, travel, entertainment, vehicle use, gifts, and related expenses for your business are supported by necessary records required by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). At your request, we are available to answer your question(s) and advise you on the types of record(s) required.

We will use our judgment to resolve questions in your favor where a tax law is unclear if there is reasonable and legal justification for doing so. Whenever we are aware that a possibly applicable tax law is unclear or that there are conflicting interpretations of the law by authorities (e.g., IRS and courts), we will explain the possible positions that may be taken on your return. We will follow whatever position you request, so long as it is consistent with the current codes and regulations and their interpretations. If the IRS or State tax authorities should later contest the position taken, there may be an assessment of additional tax, interest, and penalties. We assume no liability for any such additional tax(es), interest, and penalties or other fee(s) and assessment(s

Our work in connection with your income tax return(s) does not include any procedures designed to discover fraud, theft, or other irregularities, should any exist.

Our engagement does not include tax planning services, which are available as a separate engagement. During the course of preparing the Tax Return(s) identified above, we may bring to your attention certain available tax saving strategies for you to consider as possible means of reducing your income taxes in subsequent tax years. However, we have no responsibility to do so, and will take no action with respect to any such recommendations, as the responsibility for implementation remains with you, the Tax Payer.

This engagement does not include responding to inquiries by any governmental agency or tax authority. If your tax return is selected for examination or audit, you may request that we assist you in responding to such inquiry. In that event, we would be pleased to discuss providing assistance to you under the terms of a separate engagement letter for that specific purpose.

We appreciate the opportunity to service you. Please sign and date the enclosed copy of this engagement letter to acknowledge your agreement with its terms. It is our policy to initiate services after we receive the signed copy of this engagement letter from you.
