3 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Trustees Highpoint Community Church Memphis, Tennessee We have audited the financial statements of Highpoint Community Church (a not-for-profit organization) as of July 31, 2010, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Church s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Church s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Highpoint Community Church as of July 31, 2010, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also compiled the accompanying statements of financial position as of July 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A compilation is limited to presenting in the form of financial statements information that is the representation of management. We have not audited or reviewed the 2009 and 2008 financial statements and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or any other assurance on them. June 24, 2011

9 Notes to Financial Statements Page Organization and Nature of Activities Highpoint Community Church (the "Church"), was incorporated as a not-for-profit religious organization in Tennessee in The Church s dream is to offer a place of worship that offers compassion without compromise. The Church strives for the relentless teaching of God's Word that makes sense for people in real life and embraces a style of worship that celebrates freedom. They endeavor to be a place where people feel a connection and move from acquaintances to deep friendships, where people are equipped to maximize their potential and a place where the Great Commandment and Great Commission come alive through acts of service and love. The church is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code as other than a private foundation. 2 - Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting - The financial statements of the Church have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned, and expenses are recognized when the obligation is incurred. Basis of Presentation - As required by the Not-for-Profit Entities Classification of Net Assets topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (the FASB ASC ), the Church reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets, and permanently restricted net assets. Revenue Recognition - Contributions received are recorded as unrestricted, temporarily restricted, or permanently restricted support, depending on the existence and/or nature of any donor restrictions. All donor-restricted contributions are reported as an increase in temporarily or permanently restricted net assets, depending on the nature of the restriction. When a restriction expires (that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is accomplished), temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Programs - The program services provided by the Church are summarized as follows: Ministry Expenses - Provides resources for staff to pursue professional and personal development; also includes resources for developing coaching/mentoring relationships with members. Adult Ministry - Provides the support to meet the needs of weekly classes. Children's Ministry - Provides ministry to all children birth - 6th grades. Student Ministry - Provides ministry to middle and high school students. College and Singles Ministry - Provides ministry to college students and single adults. Discipleship Ministry - Provides the support to equip and grow Christians in their relationship with Christ. Women's Ministry - Provides the support to foster relationships between females, including retreats, bible studies, events, etc. Recovery Ministry - Provides the support to help members and non-members deal with hurts, habits and hangups. Guest Services - Provides the support to create a great first time impression for guests. Care Ministry - Provides the support to meet care needs for members.

10 Notes to Financial Statements Page Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Production and Media Ministry - Provides technical support to worship environments; enhances experiences through media/video. Creative Ministry - Provides the support to meet the needs of all weekly worship environments and Church communication. Missions Ministry - Provides the support to minister and evangelize both locally and globally. Benevolence - Provides the support for assisting with the financial needs of members. Use of Estimates - Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used. Revenues and Support - Revenues and support for the Church are primarily derived from unrestricted contributions from the Church membership. Donated Services - No amounts have been reflected in the financial statements for donated services. The Church pays for most services requiring specific expertise. A large number of people have contributed significant amounts of time to the activities of the Church without compensation. The financial statements do not reflect the value of those contributed services. Donated Assets - Donated marketable securities and other noncash donations are recorded as contributions at their estimated fair values at the date of donation. Compensated Absences - Employees of the Church, administrative and ministerial, are entitled to paid time off depending upon length of service and other factors. The Church cannot reasonably estimate the amount of compensation for future absences; accordingly, no liability has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Church s policy is to recognize the cost of compensated absences when paid to employees. Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the financial statements, the Church considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents at July 31, 2010, 2009 and Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost, if purchased, and fair market value at date of donation, if contributed. Depreciation, including amortization of capitalized lease assets, is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of: Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 to 7 years Audio, visual and lighting 3 to 7 years Building improvements 3 years Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Additions to property and equipment of $2,000 or more, including renewals and betterments that extend the useful life of property, are capitalized. Depreciation expense for the years ended July 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 amounted to $69,516, $63,225 and $61,595 respectively. Subsequent Events - Subsequent events have been evaluated through June 24, 2011, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

11 Notes to Financial Statements Page Note Payable The Church entered into a credit agreement with a bank in May 2005 that provided up to $300,000 under a promissory note with monthly payments of principal and interest due at a fixed rate of 6.50%. The note was secured by equipment and retired in There were no outstanding balances at July 31, 2010 and At July 31, 2008, the outstanding balance under this agreement was $36, Temporarily Restricted Net Assets The balance of temporarily restricted net assets as of July 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 relates to certain contributions for which the donor has imposed restrictions. Temporarily restricted net assets in the amounts of $116,055, $98,401 and $175,000 for the years ended July 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, have been expended in accordance with donor restrictions and have been reclassified to unrestricted net assets. 5 - Operating Lease Commitments The Church rents certain equipment and buildings under non-cancellable operating leases. Future minimum rentals under operating leases are due as follows: 6 - Retirement Plan For the Years Ending July 31, 2011 $ 244, , ,463 The Church maintains a 403(b) retirement program for the benefit of its employees, whereby employees make elective contributions to the plan. Each year the Church may, at its sole discretion, contribute to the retirement program. For the years ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, employee contributions were matched up to 3% of compensation by the employer. Contributions are fully vested after twelve months of employment. Plan assets were held in fully funded, participant directed, separate accounts. Retirement plan expense was $15,683 and $12,443 for the years ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There were no retirement plan expenses for the year ended July 31, Income Tax The Church adopted the Income Taxes topic of the FASB ASC in 2009, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Church's combined financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The topic also provides guidance on derecognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The application of this topic did not have a material effect on the Church for the years ended July 31, 2010 and The Church is subject to filing a Form 990T tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction if there is any unrelated business income. The Church's federal income tax returns for tax years 2007 and beyond remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Church did not have unrecognized tax benefits as of July 31, 2010 and 2009 and does not expect this to change significantly over the next twelve months. In connection with the application of the Income Taxes topic, the Church will recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of July 31, 2010 and 2009, the Church has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
