The 016 season was the most fun I ve ever had playing baseball. I didn t think anything could top the American Championship, but winning the Charlottesville Regional and coming one win away from the College World Series was truly special. Coach Godwin has instilled a work ethic in us on the field, in the community and in the classroom. Through the donor support of the Pirate Club members, moments like these will continue to live on.

FAQS DONATION FAQs Q: Is my contribution to the Pirate Club tax deductible? A: Yes, the current federal income tax law allows an 80% charitable contribution deduction on contributions to educational institutions. As a result of such contributions, the donor receives preferred seating benefits for athletic events. Contributions which neither directly nor indirectly result in the result of preferred seating rights are fully deductible for Federal income tax purposes. Donors should consult their tax advisors for detailed information. Q: What are priority points and how are they awarded? A: In an effort to more equitably serve Pirate Club members, a Priority Points System was developed and implemented in 1993 by the ECU Educational Foundation, Inc., Executive Committee. The Pirate Club Priority Points System determines ranking for season ticket assignments and acquiring tickets to high demand events, post season tournaments and championships, bowl games and other special events. It is also used to assign Pirate Club benefits including priority parking and requests for seating upgrades. For each $100 given to the Pirate Club Annual Fund, the donor will receive two priority points. Points are also awarded to donors who give for continuous years, those who give over $5,000, those who give towards Capital Campaigns, and those who buy season tickets for athletic events. For a complete breakdown of priority points and how to acquire them visit the Priority Points page. Q: How can I make a payment towards my pledge?

Please contact the Pirate Club office at (5) 737-4540 or visit the Young Grad page to see if you qualify for a Young Graduate membership. Q: What are the benefits of joining the Pirate Club? A: Perhaps the greatest benefit of joining the Pirate Club is the understanding that your contribution creates educational opportunities for the student-athletes who represent East Carolina University. In addition, Pirate Club members are given priority on ticket availability and seat locations for all ECU Athletics events. This priority extends to football, basketball and baseball games, bowl games, conference and postseason tournaments and other special athletics events.

TICKET-RELATED FAQs Q: I understand football seating in Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium will be reassigned in 018, please explain this process and how it will affect me as a Pirate Club member? A: The Executive Committee of the ECU Educational Foundation, Inc., voted to begin reassigning seats for football, men s basketball and baseball every three years starting with the 015 football season. The advantage of re-evaluating priority seating every three years is that it will help guarantee the integrity and fairness of the Pirate Club Priority Points System and give a donor the opportunity to improve seating every three years based on the priority points he/she has accumulated. Q: Do Pirate Club members get priority on seats for sporting events? A: Pirate Club members are given priority on ticket availability and seat location for football, basketball and baseball games, bowl games, conference and post-season tournaments, and other special athletic events. The number of season tickets that may be purchased for priority seating is shown on the Gift Level Chart for each level of giving. The Pirate Club Priority Points System is used for the allocation of all seating assignments. TAX INFORMATION The East Carolina University Educational Foundation, Inc., is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation domiciled in the State of North Carolina. Our Federal Tax ID# is 56-606119. A contribution that entitles the donor to purchase tickets is 80% deductible as a charitable contribution for income tax purposes, as per IRS code, Section 170 (1). In addition, the IRS has ruled the 80% portion is only tax deductible as a contribution, to the extent that it exceeds the value of any additional benefits the donor may have received. For 100% tax deductibility of a contribution, a donor must decline in writing the right to receive any benefits at the time the contribution is made. Consult your tax advisor for more information. 9
