“The oversight and selection process has not changed from the previous tax year.”

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The Retiree Trust is intended to meet the qualification requirements pursuant to Section 501(c)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), and, accordingly, the net investment income of the Retiree Trust is exempt from income taxes. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has determined in a letter dated October 10, 1995, that the Plan and Retiree Trust are designed in accordance with the applicable sections of the Code. However, as a result of the Plan's funding policy, the Retiree Trust may be subject to income taxes. No federal or state income taxes are required to be recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 for unrelated business taxable income. ETS believes that the Retiree Trust, as amended, continues to be a tax-exempt trust and operates in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code. ETS evaluated the Plan's tax positions and concluded that the Retiree Trust maintained its tax-exempt status and there are no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes is required in the financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Plan is subject to routine examinations by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are no examinations for any open tax periods in progress. ETS believes the Plan is not subject to income tax examination by the IRS for years prior to 2011.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Retiree Trust is intended to meet the qualification requirements pursuant to Section 501(c)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), and, accordingly, the net investment income of the Retiree Trust is exempt from income taxes. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has determined in a letter dated October 10, 1995, that the Plan and Retiree Trust are designed in accordance with the applicable sections of the Code. However, as a result of the Plan's funding policy, the Retiree Trust may be subject to income taxes. No federal or state income taxes are required to be recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 for unrelated business taxable income. ETS believes that the Retiree Trust, as amended, continues to be a tax-exempt trust and operates in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code. ETS evaluated the Plan's tax positions and concluded that the Retiree Trust maintained its tax-exempt status and there are no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes is required in the financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Plan is subject to routine examinations by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are no examinations for any open tax periods in progress. ETS believes the Plan is not subject to income tax examination by the IRS for years prior to 2011.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The members are the beneficiaries of the Educational Testing Service Retiree VEBA.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The Form 990 was reviewed in detail by members of the Educational Testing Service Employee Benefits Administration Committee ("EBAC") prior to filing.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Although the Educational Testing Service Retiree Medical and Life Insurance Benefit Plan (the ETS Retiree VEBA) has not specifically adopted these policies, the EBAC observes the applicable policies of the plan sponsor, Educational Testing Service.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3Currently, the ETS Retiree VEBA does not make its governing documents or financial statements available to the general public.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4The EBAC is the "administrator", as defined in Section 3(16)(A) of ERISA, of the Educational Testing Service Retiree Medical and Life Insurance Benefit Plan, which is funded through this VEBA. The VEBA does not have officers per se, but per the Form 990 Glossary definition of "officer", the EBAC members in effect serve in such role.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt5The oversight and selection process has not changed from the previous tax year.
