                    Held:  The fees received by P pursuant to its                     
               service contract with L were substantially related to                  
               its tax-exempt purpose and, therefore, did not                         
               constitute unrelated business taxable income.                          
                    Held, further:  P’s fulfillment of the                            
               nonsponsorship and noncompetition clause did not                       
               constitute a trade or business as defined by sec. 513,                 
               I.R.C.; therefore, the payment did not constitute                      
               unrelated business taxable income taxable to P under                   
               sec. 511(a), I.R.C.                                                    

               James R. King, Michael Dubetz, Jr., and Todd S. Swatsler,              
          for petitioner.                                                             
               Robert D. Kaiser, for respondent.                                      


               RUWE, Judge:  Respondent determined deficiencies in                    
          petitioner’s Federal income tax in the amounts of $1,107,505 and            
          $40,192 for the taxable periods ending August 31, 1985, and                 
          August 31, 1986, respectively.                                              
               After concessions, the issues for decision are: (1) Whether            
          the $292,617 received by petitioner pursuant to its service                 
          contract with Landmark, Inc., during the taxable year ending                
          August 31, 1985, constituted unrelated business taxable income;             
          (2) whether a lump-sum payment made by Landmark, Inc., to                   
          petitioner pursuant to the terms of a nonsponsorship and                    
          noncompetition clause contained in their 1985 termination                   
          agreement constituted unrelated business taxable income; and (3)            
          whether interest should be computed under the provisions of
