QUESTION 4-C
4o. Please provide a list and explanation of the income and
expense categories, as vail as balance sheet accounts.
* * * *

Attached as Exhibit III-4-B are the lists and explanations of


the income categories and the expense categories. These income and
disbursement categories are in general use throughout Scientology.
These categories cover the most common sources of income and most
common types of disbursements found in most Scientology churches
ministering religious services. Additional categories are
generally created locally as needed for other types of activities
found within different types of Scientology organizations, such as
Management organizations, Publications organizations, etc.
There is no single chart of balance sheet accounts issued for
all Scientology organizations across the world to use for all their
balance sheets. However, there are standard balance sheet
groupings of assets and liabilities. In church organizations that
prepare their balance sheets using a local computer program, local
charts are developed tailor-made to their needs assigning specific
numbers to the general and specific asset and liability accounts.
Attached as Exhibit III-4-C is a chart of the different balance
sheet accounts used by many United States Scientology churches.
Not every individual organization necessarily will use all or even
most of the listed accounts; the chart also does not list balance
sheet accounts that are unique to individual church organizations.

Questions 4(e) and 4(f)
•• Please describe whether, and, if so, the extent to which,
payments for services rendered at Church of Scientology Flag
Service Org, Inc. (hereinafter "CSFSO") and Church of Scientology
Flag Ship service Organization (hereinafter "CSFSSO") vera and are
not deposited or held in a United States bank account prior to
being deposited abroad as of December 31, 1986 and since than.
Does this vary depending upon either the form of payment (e.g.
check, cash, credit card) or the domicile of the individual paying
such amounts? Please describe in detail the treatment of such funds
(i.e. the path of such payments) as of December 31, 1986 as well as
any changesin such treatment to the date of this letar. Please
describe in detail the mechanism by which payments by United States
residents and funds for services performed in the United States by
any other Scientology-related organizations in calendar year 1989
were deposited in overseas accounts (e.g., describe the physical
transfer of funds overseas, including the mode of transmittal,
etc.). Did this vary depending upon the form of payment? Please
describe any changes since then up the present time?

f. In the previous paragraph, please modify the question by


substituting the term "donations and/or contributions" for the word
"payments" or "funds". Is the answer different? If so, please
explain.

Questions 4(e) and 4(f) are being answered together because


the manner in which Churches of Scientology handle receipts of
funds does not differ based on whether the payments are considered
as payments for goods or services or as donations or contributions.
Because of the structure of the questions, responses are provided
first for CSFSO and CSFSSO.

U.S. Churches of Scientology receiving funds in foreign


currencies have bank accounts in the U.S. and in other countries in
order to facilitate receipt and clearing of payments. Through
experience, they have found that overseas banks are able to clear
foreign currency payments much faster than U.S. banks, offer
foreign currency bank accounts that are not available in the U.S.,
provide better currency conversion rates into U.S. dollars than do
U.S. banks, and impose lower service charges.

Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization


Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization ("CSFSO"), is
an international religious retreat located in Clearwater, Florida.
It is the largest single Church of Scientology in the world and
offers Scientology religious

4-26
services from the lowest levels to more advanced levels. CSFSO
attracts parishioners from all over the world and receives
donations for religious services in many different currencies. Its
procedures for deposit of its receipts, discussed below, have been
in force since before 1986 and remain unchanged today.

CSFSO ordinarily does not deposit foreign-denominated funds in


the U.S. for transfer abroad. Rather, CSFSO deposits foreign
currency checks or receives bankwires in foreign currencies
directly into its overseas bank accounts. CSFSO physically sends
the foreign-denominated instruments at least weekly by common
carrier (DHL, Federal Express, etc.) to its various overseas banks
for deposit into CSFSO's accounts. These procedures apply whether
the foreign checks are received from the parishioner while he or
she is at CSFSO in Florida, or whether he or she is remitting a
payment directly to CSFSO abroad.

Checks in U.S. dollars drawn on foreign banks similarly are


deposited in CSFSO's U.S. dollar bank account in Luxembourg. This
is to facilitate check clearance because CSFSO's principal foreign
bank in Luxembourg can clear foreign U.S. dollar checks more
quickly than U.S. banks. This procedure applies whether the
payment is sent by a parishioner from abroad or paid in person in
Florida.

Check payments abroad from overseas parishioners usually are


collected by Flag Service Consultant ("FSC") Offices in Denmark,
France, Switzerland, Germany, UK, Italy, Sweden, Australia, Mexico
and Canada. Local CSFSO accounts are kept in Australia, France,
Switzerland, Germany, Mexico and Canada. In general, foreign
currency checks are sent either by bank wire from local FSC
accounts or by courier pack direct to the Luxembourg bank for
deposit into CSFSO's account, from countries which do not have a
CSFSO local account.

Foreign cash received from a parishioner while he is at CSFSO


is converted into U.S. dollars and deposited into local accounts in
Clearwater. Amounts received from parishioners in U.S. currency,
of course, are deposited into local U.S. accounts. This money
remains in the U.S. and is not transferred overseas. Most
parishioners pay by check, and currency, whether U.S. or foreign,
is a very small percentage of funds received. Currency, whether
U.S. or foreign, is never sent abroad in a mailpack because of the
risk of theft or other loss.

CSFSO is able to accept payment by certain credit cards (Visa


and Mastercard). All credit card payments are deposited directly
into a local U.S. dollar bank account, whether from U.S. or

4-27
non-US parishioners. Credit card proceeds are always in U.S
dollars, never foreign currencies.
CSFSO also has Reserve accounts overseas in Luxembourg. CSFSO
periodically transfers funds from its Finance Office accounts, into
which its foreign checks and bankwires are initially deposited, to
the Reserve accounts; CSFSO sends its Luxembourg bank written
instructions to make these transfers and receives debit and credit
memos to confirm these interaccount transfers.
On occasion, CSFSO also may transfer by bank wire funds held
in U.S. banks to its Luxembourg Reserve accounts if such funds
exceed local needs. The reasons for such transfer would include
the availability of higher interest rates in Luxembourg and surplus
balances in U.S. bank accounts in excess of FDIC limits. Such
surpluses in U.S. bank accounts are rare, so there are very few
such transfers.
Church of Scientology. Flag Ship Service Organization
The Church of Scientology Flag Ship Service Organization
(CSFSSO) was incorporated in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles as a
non-profit foundation in April 1988. It commenced activities on 1
May 1988, shortly before the maiden voyage of the Freewinds on 6
June 1988. Its procedures for handling its receipts, discussed
below, have applied since its inception and remain unchanged today.
CSFSSO does not have, nor has it ever had, a United States
bank account. None of its income has ever been banked in the U,S.
CSFSSO has never provided any religious goods or services to its
parishioners within the United States; rather, these activities are
conducted entirely outside the U.S., from aboard the M.V.
Freewinds.
CSFSSO has local bank accounts in Curacao, Netherlands
Antilles, the home port of the Freewinds. CSFSSO also has U.S.
dollar and foreign currency accounts in Luxembourg. CSFSSO accepts
payments and donations via major credit cards (e.g. Visa and
Mastercard), which are deposited in its local accounts in Curacao.
Parishioners in the U.S. who wish to make donations to CSFSSO
for religious services usually send payment by check or credit card
debit to CSFSSO via the Church of Scientology Freewinds Relay
Office, located in Clearwater, Florida. This is a practical
expedient because the Freewinds is usually at sea in the Caribbean
and its exact location for mail purposes varies. The Relay Office
collects all mail and other communications destined

4-28
for the Freewinds. Any currency intended for CSFSSO is converted
into a U.S. dollar draft or money order; cash is never sent abroad
in a mailpack because of the risk of theft or other loss. Every
week, the Relay Office forwards all mail, including checks and
credit card invoices, to Curacao. If the Freewinds is not in port,
the mailpack is collected by a Ship's representative and delivered
to the Ship as soon as it arrives. All checks are invoiced by
CSFSSO on-board the Freewinds and is deposited into local bank
accounts in Curacao, as noted above.

Church of Scientology International


The Church of Scientology International ("CSI") receives
support payments from subordinate Churches throughout the world for
its ecclesiastical guidance and other international operations as
Mother Church. CSI also receives contributions from its
subordinate churches towards the cost of broad public dissemination
campaigns, and it collects Film Lease payments per contractual
agreements from Churches and, via Scientology Missions
International, from Missions.
Most support payments to CSI from subordinate Churches are in
the form of checks or money orders. However, some U.S. Churches
bankwire their payments to CSI's U.S. account in Los Angeles, while
some non-U.S. Churches bankwire their support payments direct to
CSI's account in Luxembourg.

The Continental Finance offices for Western U.S. (in Los


Angeles California), Eastern U.S. (New York), Flag (Clearwater,
Florida), Latin America (Mexico), Canada (Toronto), UK (East
Grinstead), Europe (Copenhagen, Denmark), Italy (Milano), Australia
New Zealand (Sydney, Australia) assist in the collection of these
payments from their subordinate Churches. These Churches generally
forward their checks to their respective Continental Finance office
for relay to CSI. These payments almost always are relayed by
bankwire.

Non-US Finance offices sometimes send checks from their


subordinate Churches payable to CSI by courier mailpacks directly
to the Luxembourg bank for deposit into CSI's account. The
Continental Office in Australia, however, collects funds from each
of its subordinate Churches locally and then sends a bankwire
directly to the CSI Luxembourg account.

Payments other than bankwires and direct deposits to CSI's


Luxembourg accounts are sent to CSI in Los Angeles by mail or

4-29
courier pack or via inter-organizational mailpacks. In general/
all foreign currency checks and U.S. dollar checks drawn on foreign
banks are sent by CSI staff via courier pack (DHL or the
equivalent) directly to its Luxembourg bank for deposit into CSI's
account. Before 1990, U.S. dollar checks drawn on domestic banks
also were sent to CSI's Luxembourg account for deposit there.
Since 1990, domestic U.S. dollar checks generally have been
deposited into CSI's account in Los Angeles. CSI does not receive
payments in cash or by credit card.
Primarily for exchange control reasons, CSI has not received
payments from Churches in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Israel, Italy,
Spain or Portugal, regularly since 1986. Recent changes in
exchange control regulations within the European Community,
however, mean that periodic payments have resumed or applications
are in progress from Italy, Spain and Portugal. An application for
exchange control approval to remit funds from South Africa was
submitted and has been pending since August 1991. When cleared,
these payments are deposited into CSI's Luxembourg bank accounts.
Scientology Missions International
Since 1989, all Church of Scientology missions have paid a
tithe to Scientology Missions International ("SMI"). All tithes to
SMI in non-US currency bank drafts or U.S. Dollar checks drawn on
banks outside of the United States or Canada have been sent via
courier pack (DHL or the equivalent) to SMI's Luxembourg bank for
deposit. SMI also sends any excess funds held in its local
accounts, or when local accounts exceed FDIC limits, to its
Luxembourg bank by writing a check and including it in the deposits
to be couriered to Luxembourg.
Occasionally, SMI's Continental office in Europe will receive
a Mission's tithe and send it directly to SMI's Luxembourg account
for deposit. Some of the European Missions also send their
payments directly to the SMI Luxembourg account by depositing the
funds directly or sending a wire transfer.

Because of exchange control laws, tithes from South African


Missions cannot be sent to SMI. Consequently, an account was set
up specifically for SMI in South Africa, to which South African
Missions deposit their tithes directly. The local Finance Director
for the Church of Scientology in South Africa assists SMI in
maintaining this account by sending telex reports to SMI of the
amounts received and deposited in this account.
