Revenue Code was granted on May 23, 1999. |

At the example of the Software Conservancy: |

|
| 18 |
* Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization incorporated |
| 19 |
in New York, and donations made to it are fully tax-deductible to the extent |
| 20 |
permitted by law. |

Donations to the Gentoo Foundation are not tax-deductible anywhere. |
