Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Cash and cash equivalents: All short-term investments that are highly liquid are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are readily convertible to a known amount of cash, and at the day of purchase, have a maturity date no longer than three months.

Investments: Investments are comprised of equity securities, mutual funds, corporate bonds, government obligations or agencies, hedge funds, REIT1s, derivatives, and commodities. Investments are measured at fair value in the statements of financial position based on publicly quoted prices or other means.

Restricted cash, cash equivalents and investments: Amounts reported as restricted cash, cash equivalents, and investments are restricted in use for scholarships, student loans, and facility improvements.

Concentration of credit risk: The School maintains cash and investment accounts with various financial and brokerage institutions. At June 30, 2015, bank deposits totaled $ 11,620,110, of which$ 557,072 was covered by Federal Depository Insurance and$ 11,063,038 was uninsured and uncollateralized.

The School holds investments, including money market funds, in several accounts with various financial and brokerage institutions. Investments in money market funds are reported as cash equivalents in the statements of financial position.

Management believes the School is not exposed to significant. credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. The School has not experienced any losses on its cash equivalents. The School1 s investments do not represent significant concentrations of market risk inasmuch as the School1 s investment portfolio is adequately diversified among many issuers.

Bond issuance costs: Costs associated with the issuance of bonds have been capitalized and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the bonds. The provision for amortization for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately$ 67,400.

Provision for depreciation: Property and equipment are carried at cost if purchased, or if donated, at fair value on the date of donation, less accumulated depreciation. The School provides for depreciation using both the straight-line and accelerated methods over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings and building improvements 10-40 years Furniture, fixtures and equipment 5-10 years Land improvements 10-40 years

Donated property and equipment are reported as unrestricted support unless the donor has restricted the donated asset to a specific purpose. Assets donated with explicit restrictions regarding their use and contributions of cash that must be used to acquire property and equipment are reported as restricted support. Without donor stipulations regarding how long those donated assets must be maintained, the School reports expirations of donor restrictions when the donated assets are placed in service, reclassifying temporarily restricted net assets to unrestricted net assets at that time.

Additions and major renewals to property and equipment are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.

10 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Deferred revenue: Tuition and nonrefundable registration fees are recognized as revenue in the applicable school year. Deferred revenue represents tuition and nonrefundable registration fees received prior to the commencement of the school year.

Donated goods and services: The School pays for most services requiring specific expertise. However, a number of volunteers have donated significant amounts of their time in various School related activities. Because of the. difficulty in determining the number of hours for such services, those items are not disclosed in the accompanying financial statements. However, when the value of donated services requires specific expertise, they are reflected in the financial statements as revenue and expenses. Donated goods and services are recorded at their fair value. The School did not receive or record any donated goods or services for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Joint costs of fundraising appeals: The School utilizes various pamphlets, brochures and informational methods to inform the general public of their activities and to solicit funds. These costs are charged to special events.

Totals for prior year: The financial statements include certain summarized totals for the year ended June 30, 2014 without detail by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should only be read in conjunction with the School's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014, from which the summarized information was derived.

Interest rate swap agreement: The School has entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the variability of cash flows caused by changes in interest rates on bonds. The fixed rate of interest that is used in the interest rate swap agreement is 3.93%. The differential interest required to be paid or that will be received under this agreement is accrued consistent with the terms of the agreement and is recognized as interest expense when accrued. Terms of the swap agreement require the differential interest to be paid or received monthly. Generally accepted accounting principles require derivative instruments, such as interest rate swap agreements, to be recognized at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the statements of financial position. Accordingly, the obligation of $ 1,904,415 and $ 2,198,154 are reported as liabilities in the statements of financial position as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, the increase or decrease in value is reported in the statements of activities as a component of other changes in net assets. The obligation has been measured based on mark-to-market estimates calculated by the counterparty to the swap agreement. Such calculations were based on valuation models and other available market data. The estimated obligation is subject to change based on changes in market conditions or in assumptions underlying the valuation models. Any such adjustment could be material.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2014 financial statement for presentation purposes. Total net assets and change in net assets are unchanged due to these reclassifications.

Date of management review: Subsequent events were evaluated by management through December 11, 2015, which is the date the financial statements were available for issuance.

11 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 3 - Investments and Fair Value Measurements

Investments at June 30, 2015 and 2014 consisted of the following at their fair value:

TyQe 2015 2014

Equity securities $ 5,174,997 $ 4,153,114 Mutual funds and ETF's 3!597!766 5!781!311 Total equities and mutual funds 8!772!763 9,934,425 U.S. Corporate fixed income 1,734,444 954,763 U.S. Government fixed income 303,383 301,848 Total fixed income 2!037,827 1,256,611 Hedge funds 1,069,626 1,061,766 REITs 418,002 373,743 Commodities 180,048 226,149 Total other 1,667,676 1,661!658 Total investments $ 12!478!266 $ 12!852!694

Investment income includes the following as of June 30:

2015 2014

Interest and dividend income $ 466,267 $ 449,570 Gains (losses): Unrealized {316,574) 1,545,480 Realized 15!406 4!650

Total investment income $ 165,099 $ 1,999J00

Investments in common stocks (equities) are carried at market value, as quoted on major stock exchanges. Investment in equity securities, commodities and real estate investment trusts are valued at quoted prices as determined by the issuers. Mutual funds and fixed income are carried at fair value, which is equal to quoted prices the last day of the fiscal year. Alternative investments consist of hedge funds. The estimated fair value of the alternative investments, at net asset value, is based on valuations provided by the external investment managers. The School believes the method for providing estimated fair values on these financial values and their estimated value is subject to uncertainty. Therefore, there may be a material difference between their estimated values and the values that would have been used had a readily determinable fair market value for such investments existed.

The School invests in hedging activities in order to mitigate the risk inherent with market fluctuations. Hedge fund managers may invest in derivative instruments.

12 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 3 - Investments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board in its Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the School provides for fair value measurements of investments that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the combined financial statements on a recurring basis and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• Level 1 inputs that are observable and reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

• Level 2 inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the investments, either directly or indirectly (e.g. quoted prices in active markets for similar securities, securities valuations based on commonly quoted benchmarks, interest rates and yield curves, and/or securities indices).

• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the investments (e.g. information about assumptions, including risk, market participants would use in pricing a security).

The following tables represents the investments as held by the School at June 30, 2015 and 2014. The assets are classified by ASC No. 820 fair value hierarchy as follows:

Asset Class Leveil Level2 Level 3 2015

Equity securities $ $ $ 5,174,997 Corporate bonds 1,734,444 Alternative investments 1,069,626 United States government obligations or agencies Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) Mutual funds, marketable and non marketable 3,597,766 3,597,766 Commodities 180,048 180,048

13 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 3 - Investments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)

Asset Class Level 1 Level2 Level3 2014

Equity securities $ 4,153,114 $ $ $ 4,153,114 Corporate bonds 954,763 954,763 Alternative investments 1,061,766 1,061,766 United States government obligations or agencies 301,848 301,848 Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) 373,743 373,743 Mutual funds, marketable and non marketable 5,781,311 5,781,311 Commodities 226,149 226,149 Total Fair Value $ 10,534,317 $ 1,256,611 $ 1,061,766 $ 12,852,694

For the valuation of equity securities, REITs, mutual funds and commodities at June 30, 2015 and 2014, the School used quoted prices in principal active markets for identical assets as of the valuation date (Level 1).

For the valuation of corporate bonds, United States government obligations or agencies at June 30, 2015 and 2014, the School used significant other observable inputs, particularly dealer market prices for comparable investments as of the valuation date (Level 2).

For the valuation of marketable and nonmarketable alternative funds at June 30, 2015 and 2014, the School used significant unobservable inputs including information from fund managers or general partners based on quoted market prices, if available, or other valuation methods (Level 3).

The following tables include a roll forward of the amounts for the year ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 for investments classified within Level 3. The classification of an investment within Level 3 is based upon the significance of the unobservable inputs to the overall fair value measurement.

Reconciliation of Level 3 Investments at June 30:

2015 2014

Beginning balance $ 1,061,766 $ 6,981,105 Net purchases, sales, issuances and settlements (6,059,161) Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments 7,860 139,822 Ending balance $ 1,069,626 $ 1,061,766

Inputs broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants use to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk. An investment's classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

14 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 3 - Investments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The determination of what constitutes "observable" requires significant judgment by the investment managers. Investments may include limited partnerships, common and preferred equity securities, corporate debt and other privately issued securities. If observable prices are not available for investments the investment managers would generally employ valuation techniques as prescribed by ASC 820, such as the market approach or the income approach, for which sufficient and reliable data is available. Within Level 3, the use of the market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions or values provided by the respective manager, while the use of the income approach generally consists of the net present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors. Additionally, there were no unfunded commitments for any of the investments below.

The following table provides additional disclosures of alternative investments held by the School as of June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Strategy 2015 2014

Multi-strategy credit (a.) $ 448,863 $ 439,228 Managed futures strategy (b.) 208,303 254,188 Long-Short strategy (c.) 15,412 15,412 Global Event strategy (d.) 1,540 671 Diversified strategy (e.) 395,508 352,267

Total $ 1,069,626 $ 1,061,766

a. Multi strategy credit: This class is a credit and event driven fund of funds which utilizes a rigorous bottom-up quantitative and qualitative manager selection process to identify what the fund believes to be the most talented managers employing these strategies. It seeks to generate consistent long-term growth with minimal volatility and low correlation to traditional asset classes.

b. Managed Futures: This class invests in commodity, financial and currency futures. The Fund's investment strategy is a top-down discretionary global macro approach to trading futures, physicals, options and forward contracts in the global fixed income, currency, stock index, energy and commodities markets. The Fund's strategy may also include other investment instruments, including transactions in securities, foreign exchange, fixed income instruments and swaps that related to such markets as well as other independent investment managers and/or funds. Investments in this class can be redeemed upon 75 days' notice.

c. Long-Short Strategy: This class includes investments in hedge funds that invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. equities as well as non-U.S. securities. Such securities may include common and preferred stocks, stock warrants and rights, bonds, debentures, convertible securities, and other debt obligations. In addition, they may invest in options to purchase and/or sell securities, options on indices and private options and swap contracts tailored to them. Investments in this class are subject to a six-month Lock-Up Period during which withdrawals are subject to a withdrawal charge of 2.5%. Ninety percent of the estimated redemption is paid within fifteen days and the balance upon the completion of the annual audit for the year relating to the redemption.

15 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

Note 3 - Investments (continued)

d. Global Event strategy: This class is a global opportunistic, event-driven value strategy. The Investment Manager employs a bottom-up analysis, seeking investment opportunities anywhere in the capital structure of a company and invests long and short in distressed debt and value equities as well as a variety of financial instruments including listed and unlisted common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible securities, public and private debt issues, rights, warrants, put and call options, swaps, forward contracts, when-issued securities and other derivatives, including futures contracts. This strategy involves both U.S. and non-U.S. issuers. Investments in this class are subject to a 90 days' notice at the end of the fourth full fiscal quarter following capital investment and at the end of every 12 month period thereafter. Ninety percent of the estimated redemption is paid within forty-five days and the balance after the completion of the annual audit for the year relating to the redemption.

e. Diversified strategy: The investment objective for this class is produce positive long-term returns through diversification of trade styles including long-term trend following, short­ term systematic, value, discretionary macro and specialist FX strategies. Market exposure in this fund is broadly diversified with positions in global currency, financial and commodity markets.

Note 6- Debt

Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds: Palm Beach County previously issued $ 24,500,000 of Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds (The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Project, Series 2003) and loaned the proceeds to the School. Proceeds of the Bonds were used to refund in full the $ 9,000,000 Series 1998 Bonds, to finance the costs of new education facilities and to pay costs related to the Bond issuance. Principal payments on the Bonds are due semi-annually on July 1 and January 1 and mature in July 2025. Interest is payable monthly at rates which are adjusted weekly based on the rate determined by the remarketing agent. The interest rate in effect was approximately .05% and .07% as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, but is fixed at 3.93% per terms of an interest rate swap agreement discussed in the next paragraph. The balance outstanding on the Bonds at June 30, 2015 and 2014 is $ 15,510,000 and $ 16,615,000, respectively.

Interest rate swap agreement: The School entered into an Interest Rate Swap Agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on the variable rate Bonds. The notional principal amount of the agreement is $ 15,510,000. The agreement effectively fixes the School's interest rate exposure on the Bonds at 3.93%. The interest rate swap agreement terminates in March 2022. Interest under the swap agreement is due monthly. The School is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the agreement. The School does not anticipate nonperformance by such counterparty.

Letter of credit agreement: The Bonds are secured by an irrevocable letter of credit agreement originally issued in the amount of$ 18,889,891 which expires on June 15, 2020.

The letter of credit imposes certain financial covenants and requirements on the School, as described below:

Endowment net assets, at end of year $ 3,821,241 $ 766,992 $ 4,588,233

Return Objectives and Risk Parameters: The School has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain purchasing power of the endowment assets. Endowment assets include those assets of donor-restricted funds that the School must hold in perpetuity or for a donor-specified period(s) as well as board-designated funds. Under this policy, as approved by the Board of Trustees, the endowment assets are invested in a manner that is intended to produce expected returns of the consumer price index plus 500 basis points while assuming a moderate level of investment risk. Actual returns in any given year may vary from this amount.

Strategies Employed for Achieving Objectives: To satisfy its long-term rate-of-return objectives, the School relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized} and current yield (interest and dividends). The School targets a diversified asset allocation that includes equity investments, fixed income investments, alternative investments and cash using prudent risk constraints.

Spending Policy and How the Investment Objectives Relate to Spending Policy:

The School has a policy of appropriatin~ for distribution each year 5 percent of the trailing three years average market value on June 30 h of the preceding fiscal year in which the distribution is planned. In establishing this policy, the School considered the long-term expected return on its endowment. Accordingly, over the long term, the School expects the current spending policy to allow its endowment to grow at an annual rate equal or greater than the consumer price index. This is consistent with the School's objective to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets held in perpetuity or for a specified term as well as to provide additional real growth through new gifts and investment return. No distributions have been initiated in either 2015 or 2014. 21 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2015 and 2014

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Trustees The Benjamin Private School, Inc. North Palm Beach, Florida

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of The Benjamin Private School, Inc. (the "School"), (a nonprofit organization), which comprise the statements of financial position as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Note 3 - Investments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)

Investment income(loss) includes the following for the year ended June 30:

2017 2016

Interest and dividend income $ 302,155 $ 315,601 Gains (losses): Unrealized 1,212,511 {132,103) Realized 27,510 (298,820)

Total investment income (loss) $ 1,542,176 $ (115,322)

Investments in equity securities are carried at market value, as quoted on major stock exchanges. Mutual funds and fixed income are carried at fair value, which is the quoted prices the last day of the fiscal year. The estimated fair value of the alternative investments made through limited partnerships or other investments vehicles (Level Ill assets) is the net asset value based on valuations provided by third party administrators of the respective investment managers. The School believes the method for providing estimated fair values for alternatives classified as Level Ill assets is subject to uncertainty. Therefore, there may be material differences between their estimated and realized values. Investment in other securities are valued at quoted prices as determined by the issuers.

The School may hedge certain risks to mitigate the risk inherent with market or other fluctuations. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board in its Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the School provides for fair value measurements of investments that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the combined financial statements on a recurring basis and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• Level 1 inputs that are observable and reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

• Level 2 inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the investments, either directly or indirectly (e.g. quoted prices in active markets for similar securities, securities valuations based on commonly quoted benchmarks, interest rates and yield curves, and/or securities indices).

• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the investments (e.g., information about assumptions, including risk, market participants would use in pricing a security).

12 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2017 and 2016

Note 3 - Investments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The School has adopted Accounting Standards Update 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or its Equivalent). Consequently, investments reported at net asset value, are no longer included in the fair value hierarchy. As application is retrospective, prior period financial information has been restated to conform to the current year presentation.

The following tables represents the investments as held by the School at June 30, 2017 and 2016. The assets are classified by ASC No. 820 fair value hierarchy as follows:

Investments Valued at Asset Class Level 1 Level2 Level 3 NAV 2017

Equity securities $ 6,624,838 $ $ $ $ 6,624,838 Corporate bonds 1,705,187 1,705,187 Alternatives 438,175 438,175 Government bonds 501,549 501,549 Mutual funds 5,307,438 5,307,438 Total fair value $ 11,932,276 $ 2,206,736 $ ==== $ 438,175 $ 14,577,187

Investments Valued at Asset Class Level 1 Level2 Level3 NAV 2016

Equity securities $ 5,278,079 $ $ $ $ 5,278,079 Corporate bonds 1,647,990 1,647,990 Alternatives 373,774 373,774 Government bonds 635,578 635,578 Mutual funds 4,696,589 4,696,589

Total fair value $ 9,974,668 $ 2,283,568 $ ==== $ 373,774 $ 12,632,010

For the valuation of equity securities, mutual funds and certain alternatives at June 30, 2017 and 2016, the School used quoted prices in principal active markets for identical assets as of the valuation date (Level 1).

For the valuation of corporate bonds, United States government obligations or agencies at June 30, 2017 and 2016, the School used significant other observable inputs, particularly dealer market prices for comparable investments as of the valuation date (Level 2).

For the valuation of alternatives comprised of limited partnership interest or other investment vehicles at June 30, 2017 and 2016, the School used significant unobservable inputs including information investment managers based on quoted market prices, if available, or other valuation methods (Level 3), if any.

Note 4 - Receivables ( continued)

Conditional promises are recognized when the conditions on which they depend are substantially met. The School had no conditional promises to give at June 30, 2017 or 2016.

The School publishes information related to the restricted funds gifted including pledges and cash. These amounts may differ from the amounts reported in the financial statements due to adjustments required by generally accepted accounting principles mostly accrual to cash differences and, in some cases, discounts on long term pledges.

Employee: Previously, the School loaned certain employees monies in connection with their employment. The loan balances as of June 30, 2016 were $ 21J00 and were paid during the year ended June 30, 2017.

Note 5 - Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consists of the following-at June 30, 2017 and 2016: 2017 2016 Buildings and building improvements $ 45,526,424 $ 43,842,560 Furniture, fixtures and equipment 8,024,051 7,677,413 Land improvements 4,812,606 5,191,209 58,363,081 56,711,182 Less accumulated depreciation 23,681,623 21,831,607 34,681,458 34,879,575 Construction in progress 879,814 1,050,638 Land 7,481,628 7,481,628 $ 43,042,900 $ 43,411,841 Provision for depreciation for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, was $ 1,939,426 and $ 1,890,520, respectively.

Note 6- Debt

Variable rate demand revenue bonds: Palm Beach County previously issued $ 24,5001 000 of Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds (The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Project, Series 2003, "the Bonds") and loaned the proceeds to the School. Proceeds of the Bonds were used to refund in full the $ 9,000,000 Series 1998 Bonds, to finance the costs of new education facilities and to pay costs related to the Bond issuance. Principal payments on the Bonds are due semi-annually on July 1 and January 1 and the Bonds mature in July 2025. Interest is payable monthly at rates which are adjusted weekly based on the rate determined by the remarketing agent. The interest rate in effect was

approximately .07% and .12% as of June 30, 2017 and 20161 respectively, but is fixed at 3.93% per terms of an interest rate swap agreement discussed in the next paragraph. The balance outstanding on the Bonds at June 30, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

Face amount of bonds $ 13,1301000 $ 14,350,000 Less unamortized issuance and closing costs {510,871) (578,244)

$ 12,619,129 $ 13,771,756

15 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2017 and 2016

Note 6 - Debt (continued)

In 2017 the School adopted new authoritative GAAP guidance for the presentation of debt issuance costs and the related amortization thereof. Debt issuance costs are now reported on the statements of financial position as a direct deduction from the face amount of the related debt. Previously, such costs were shown as a deferred charge or intangible asset and currently, due to this change, as deductions from debt. Accordingly, the 2016 assets and liabilities have been reflected to show this change. In addition, the new guidance requires the related amortization of debt issuance costs to be shown as part of interest expense. As a result, reported interest expense in 2016 increased (and depreciation and amortization decreased) by $ 67,373. These changes had no effect on previously reported net assets or change in net assets.

Interest rate swap agreement: The School entered into an interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on the variable rate Bonds. The notional principal amount of the swap agreement is$ 13,130,000 as of June 30, 2017. The agreement effectively fixes the School's interest rate exposure on the Bonds at 3.93%. The interest rate swap agreement terminates in March 2022. Interest under the swap agreement is due monthly. To the extent the School is in a net gain position, it is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the agreement. The School does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty over the life of the swap term.

Letter of credit agreement: The Bonds are secured by an irrevocable letter of credit agreement which expires on June 15, 2020.

The letter of credit imposes certain financial covenants and requirements on the Schoot as described below:

Covenant Requirement Calculated In Compliance

16 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2017 and 2016

Note 7 - Pension Plan

The School sponsored a defined contribution pension plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 403(b) that covers all employees with over one year of service for the year ended June 30, 2017 .. Contributions for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were funded at a rate of 5%, subject to statutory limits, of each participant's annual compensation. For the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, pension expense was approximately$ 638,000 and$ 609,000, respectively.

Note 8 - Restricted Assets

At June 30, 2017 and 2016, temporarily restricted net assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents, investments and capital campaign pledges receivable which are available for capital projects or financial aid was $ 5,574,851 and$ 3,311,196 respectively.

In addition, the School has permanently restricted net assets at June 30, 2017 and 2016 in the amount of $ 629,639 and $ 628,639, respectively, which is for the purpose of scholarships and financial aid.

Note 9 - Endowments

Board-designated funds: The Board of the School has designated funds for the purpose of an endowment to be held indefinitely. The income from the assets may be used at the Board's discretion to provide academic scholarships to worthy students, fund special projects or programs to enhance the academic standing of the School, or to meet any emergency facing the School. The funds may not be used to acquire or construct real property or buildings. Board-designated funds are reported as components of unrestricted net assets. The designation of these funds may be changed by the Board at any time.

Donor-designated endowments: The School has received funds for the purposes of providing scholarships and service awards to students. Donor-designated endowments are reported as permanently restricted net assets.

The School's endowment consists of individual funds established for a variety of purposes. Its. endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board to function as endowments. As required by GAAP, net assets associated with endowment funds, including funds designated by the Board to function as endowments, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions.

Interpretations of Relevant Law: The Board has interpreted the State of Florida's Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (FUPMIFA) as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result of this interpretation, the School classifies as permanently restricted net assets (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund. The remaining portion of the donor­ restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the School in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by FUPMIFA.

In accordance with FUPMIFA, the School considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds:

Note 9 - Endowments (continued)

(1) The duration and preservation of the fund (2) The purposes of the School and the donor-restricted endowment fund {3) General economic conditions (4) The possible effect of inflation and deflation (5) The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments {6) Other resources of the School (7) The investment policies of the School

Endowment net assets composition by type of fund as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

Permanently 2017 Unrestricted Restricted Total Donor-restricted endowment funds $ $ 629,639 $ 629,639 Board-designated endowment funds 3,313,877 3 13131877 Total funds $ 3,313,877 $ 629,639 $ 3,943,516

18 The Benjamin Private School, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2017 and 2016

Note 9 - Endowments (continued)

Return objectives and risk parameters: The School has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain purchasing power of the endowment assets. Endowment assets include those assets of donor-restricted funds the School must hold in perpetuity or for a donor-specified period(s) as well as board-designated funds. Under this policy, as approved by the Board, the endowment assets are invested in a manner that is intended to produce expected returns of the consumer price index plus five percent while assuming a moderate level of investment risk. Actual returns in any given year may vary from this amount.

Strategies employed for achieving objectives: To satisfy its long-term rate-of-return objectives, the School relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The School targets a diversified asset allocation that includes cash, equity, fixed income and alternative investments.

Note 10 - Related Party Transactions

Included in pledges receivable are amounts due from members of the Board at June 30, 2017 and 2016, of$ 880,120 and 1,795,120, respectively.

In addition, the School's insurance broker previously served as a member of the Board.

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA: (I) AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF THE COUNTY'S REVENUE BONDS, (THE BENJAMIN PRIVATE ~CHOOL, INC. PROJECT), SERIES 2018 (THE "BONDS") FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING FUNDS TO MAKE A LOAN TO THE BENJAMIN PRIVATE SCHOOL, INC. (THE "BORROWER") TO PROVIDE FUNDS TO REFINANCE THE COUNTY'S REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2003, ISSUED FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BORROWER; TO PROVIDE FUNDS TO FINANCE AND REFINANCE CERTAIN COSTS INCURRED BY THE BORROWER IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRIVATE SCHOOL FACILITIES OWNED AND OPERATED BY THE BORROWER, AND TO PROVIDE FUNDS TO PAY THE COSTS OF ISSUING THE BONDS; (II) AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A FINANCING AGREEMENT; (Ill) AWARDING THE SALE OF THE BONDS BY A NEGOTIATED SALE; (IV) AUTHORIZING OFFICIALS OF THE COUNTY TO TAKE CERTAIN ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS; (V) MAKING CERTAIN OTHER COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS; AND (VI) PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

WHEREAS, The "Borrower" has requested Palm Beach County, Florida (the "County") to assist the Borrower by issuing the Bonds for the purpose of providing funds to make a loan to the Borrower (the "Loan") of the proceeds of the Bonds to (A) finance and refinance costs incurred or to be incurred by the Borrower in connection with the private school facilities owned and operated by the Borrower and located at 11000 Ellison Wilson Road, North Palm Beach, Florida 33408 and 4875 Grandiflora Road, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, 33410 (collectively, the "Project"); (8) refinance the County's Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds, Series 2003 issued on July 11, 2003 (the "Refunded Bonds"); and (C) pay costs associated with the issuance of the Bonds;

WHEREAS, STI Institutional & Government, Inc. (an affiliate of Sun Trust Bank), together with its successors and assigns as registered owners of the Bonds, (the "Lender") is expected to purchase the Bonds; and

WHEREAS, it is necessary and desirable to authorize the execution of a Financing Agreement (the "Agreement"), among the County, the Borrower, and the Lender, and to specify the terms of the Bonds;

NOW, .THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA THAT:

SECTION 1: AUTHORITY FOR THIS RESOLUTION This resolution, hereinafter called the "Resolution," is adopted pursuant to Part II, Chapter 159, Florida Statutes (the "Act") and other applicable provisions of law.

SECTION 2: FINDINGS Upon consideration of the documents described herein and the information presented to the County at or prior to the date hereof, it is hereby ascertained, determined and declared as follows:

A. The Project constitutes a "project" within the meaning and contemplation of the Act. The Project will serve a public purpose by advancing the economic prosperity and the general welfare of the County, the State of Florida, and the people thereof. As of the date hereof, the Borrower has represented and shown that it is financially responsible and fully capable of and willing to fulfill any obligations which it may incur in connection with the Bonds as contemplated by this Resolution. Local government will be able to cope satisfactorily with the impact of the facilities included in the Project and will be able to provide, or cause to be 1 provided when needed, the public facilities, including utilities and public services, that will be necessary for the construction, operation, repair and maintenance of such facilities and on account of any increases in population or other circumstances resulting therefrom.

B. The Agreement will make provision for the operation, repair, and maintenance of the Project at the expense of the Borrower and for the payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds and all other costs incurred by the County in connection with the Bonds. and the Project.

C. The County has been advised that due to the desire to coordinate the sale of the Bonds and due to the limited market for obligations such as the Bonds, it is in the best interest of the Borrower to sen the Bonds by negotiated sale, and the County, wishing to obtain the best interest rate on the Bonds for the benefit of the Borrower, has determined to sell the Bonds by negotiated sale to the Lender, permitting the County to enter such market at the most advantageous time, rather than at a specified advertised date, and accordingly it is in the best interest of the County that a negotiated sale of the Bonds be authorized.

D. The County conducted a public hearing concerning the issuance of the Bonds at the Board of County Commissioners meeting held on June 19, 2018.
