SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4 USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS: THE ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE USED TO SUPPORT PROJECT LEAD THE WAY AND ITS PROGRAMS.
SCHEDULE D, 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, and has been classified as an organization other than a private foundation. Management is not aware of any circumstances that could impact PLTW's exempt status. PLTW had no unrecognized tax benefits or uncertain tax positions for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, 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 the 2013 filings are the last years subject to audit.
