Box 776 Anna, TX 75409 RE: Engagement Letter for September 30, 2011 IRS Form 990 Return Dear Jessica: This letter is to confirm and specify the terms of our engagement with you and to clarify the nature and extent of the services we will provide. In order to ensure an understanding of our mutual responsibilities, we ask all clients for whom returns are prepared to confirm the following arrangements. We will prepare the September 30, 2011 and future period Form 990 Return of Organization Exempt From Income Tax return from information which you will furnish to us. We will not audit or otherwise verify the data you submit, although it may be necessary to ask you for clarification of some of the information. It is your responsibility to provide all the information required for the preparation of complete and accurate return. You should retain all documents, cancelled checks and other data that form the basis of income and deductions. These may be necessary to prove the accuracy and completeness of the return to a taxing authority. You represent to us that the information you are supplying to us is accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge. We are not responsible for disallowed deductions, or the inclusion of additional unreported income or any resulting taxes, penalties, or interest. You have the final responsibility for the income tax return and, therefore, you should review them carefully before you sign them. Our work in connection with the preparation of your income tax return does not include any procedures designed to discover defalcations and/or irregularities, should any exist. We will render such accounting and bookkeeping assistance as determined to be necessary for preparation of the income tax return. Your return may be selected for review by the taxing authorities. Any proposed adjustments by the examining agent are subject to certain rights of appeal. In the event of such government tax examinations, we will be available upon request to represent you and will render additional invoices for the time and expenses incurred. These services are not included in our fee for preparation of your return. You understand that, in the event of preparer error, you are responsible for additional tax and interest that may be due, but our responsibility is to pay for any penalty that the IRS may asses. LaFollett & Company PLLC PO Box 717 - Tom Bean, TX - 75489 903-546-6975 • www.lafollettcpa.com Your Form 990 tax return was due February 15, 2012 and is considered late. Normally, an extension may be made to May 15, 2012. An extension request is for additional time to file the return, not for additional time to pay tax. If you would like for us to prepare the extension request, please call, fax, or email us as noted below as soon as possible. We estimate our fees for these services to be $1,250 for the 2011 return and to correspond with the IRS regarding the late filing. Fees for future periods will range from $750 to $1,000. Also, we will prepare a form 1128 Request for Change of Year End to correct the documented year end from December 31 to the correct September 30 year end. Our fee for this form will be $250. Our invoices are due upon receipt. Before beginning any work on this engagement, we request a retainer fee of $300.
