Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2

“Fin 48 disclosure: pltw is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code except to the extent of unrelated business taxable income as defined under irc sections 511 through 515 and applicable sections under the new york state tax code. Under generally accepted accounting principles an organization's status as an exempt organization is considered an uncertain tax position. Management is not aware of any circumstances that could impact their exempt status. Pltw had no unrecognized tax benefits or uncertain tax positions for the years ended june 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Pltw files exempt organization returns, and, if applicable, unrelated business income tax returns in the u.s. Federal, new york, indiana, and california jurisdictions. Management believes their 2012 filings are the last years subject to audit.”
