Independent Auditor's Report

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of Tiger Athletic Foundation (a nonprofit organization) as of December 31, 2005, and the related statements of activities, functional expenses, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of Tiger Athletic Foundation's management. 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 and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tiger Athletic Foundation as of December 31, 2005, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 24, 2006, on our consideration of Tiger Athletic Foundation's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements, and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting and compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

I. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Activities

Tiger Athletic Foundation (TAF or the Foundation) was organized on May 17, 1983, under the name The LSD Tigers Unlimited Corporation, as a nonprofit corporation under Louisiana R.S. 12:201 (7). The corporation's name was changed to Tiger Athletic Foundation on April 17, 1987.

The Foundation's primary objective is to encourage support and raise funds for the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College (LSU) located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and its intercollegiate athletic program. Funds attracted by this private, nonprofit corporation are primarily used to defray the cost of scholarships of more than 300 student athletes, to help maintain and improve LSU athletic facilities, and to retire present indebtedness. The Foundation is governed by a board of directors that are elected from the membership.

Net Assets

The Foundation reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted, temporarily restricted and permanently restricted. Unrestricted net asserts include those net assets whose use by the Foundation is not restricted by donors, even though their use may be limited in other respects, such as by contract or board designation. Temporarily restricted net assets are those net assets whose use by the Foundation has been limited by donors (a) to later periods of time or other specific dates, or (b) to specified purposes. Permanently restricted net assets are those net assets received with donor-imposed restrictions limiting the Foundation's use of the asset.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Foundation considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, and whose use is not limited, to be cash equivalents.

Unconditional Promises to Give

Contributions that are expected to be collected within one year are recorded at net realizable value. Contributions that are expected to be collected in future years are recorded at the present value of their estimated future cash flows. Changes to the eslimate of the present value ol'the contributions will be reported in the period the changes are made. The Foundation eslablishes an allowance for uncollectible contributions based on a specific analysis of the remaining contribution balance due for contributions that were not made in accordance with the donor's pledged timeline. Tiger Athletic Foundation Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Property and Equipment

The purchase of property and equipment is recorded al cost. Donations of property and equipment are recorded as support at their estimated fair value. Such donations 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 temporarily or permanently restricted revenue. Property and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 5 to 50 years.

Construction in progress and other additions are stated at cost and represent costs of construction. During the construction period, interest will be capitalized on all qualifying expenditures.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Foundation reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In the event that the undiscounted cash flows resulting from the use of the asset group is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss equal to the excess of the asset's carrying amount over its fair value is recorded. The Foundation did not record any impairment loss during the year ended December 31,2005.

Other Noncurrent Assets

Other assets include deferred financing costs, associated with the Revenue Bonds Series 2004, totaling $1,193,794 that are being amortized over the life of the bond agreement, which is 30 years. This amount is net of accumulated amortization of $69,636. Amortization of the costs is recorded as a component of interest expense.

Amounts Held in Custody for Others

The amounts held in custody for others represent the coaches' escrow accounts and affiliated chapters' account, which were established as a custodial fund at the request of LSD. This fund was created in order for TAP to act as a nonaffiliated party in overseeing the revenue generated by the coaches and affiliated booster club chapters of LSU and to provide institutional control as required by NCAA rules. The Foundation has included the $1,039,963 in amounts held in custody for others as restricted cash. Tiger Athletic Foundation

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Contributions

Contributions received are recorded as unrestricted, temporarily restricted, or permanently restricted depending on the existence or nature of any donor restrictions.

Contributions are recognized when the donor makes a promise to give to the Foundation that is, in substance, unconditional. Contributions that are restricted by the donor are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets if the restrictions expire in the fiscal year in which the contributions are recognized. All other donor-restricted contributions are reported as increases in temporarily or permanently restricted net assets depending on the nature of the restrictions. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted contributions are recognized as changes in unrestricted net assets.

Functional Expenses

Functional expenses are allocated between program services and supporting activities, which include fundraising, and general and administrative activities. General and administrative expenses include those expenses that are not directly identifiable with any other specific function but provide for the overall support and direction of the Foundation.

Donated Services

During the year ended December 31, 2005, the value of contributed services meeting the requirements for recognition in the financial statements was not considered material and has not been recorded.

Scoreboard Sponsorships

The Foundation owns scoreboards and related equipment installed at various athletic venues on the LSU campus. Corporate sponsorship agreements exist between the Foundation and Scoreboard sponsors, as more fully described in Note 11.

Rents - University Club and LSU

In 1999, the Foundation issued $43,575,000 in revenue bonds for the purpose of financing or reimbursing a portion of the cosl of certain improvements and renovations to the East Side Upper Deck (ESUD) of Tiger Stadium at LSU. The bond agreement stipulates that LSU shall pay $2,000,000 to the Foundation as annual rent for the facilities.

In 2004, the Foundation issued $90,000,000 in revenue bonds, for the purpose of financing or reimbursing a portion of the cost of certain improvements and renovations to the West Side Upper Deck (WSUD) at LSU's Tiger Stadium, construction of a football operations center and miscellaneous improvements to Tiger Stadium.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Concentration of Credit Risk for Cash Held in Bank

The Tiger Athletic Foundation maintains several bank accounts at various financial institutions. Accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $100,000.

8. Notes and Bonds Payable (continued)

In March 2004, the Foundation issued Revenue Bonds Series 2004 for a principal amount of $90,000,000. The proceeds of the loan are being used to finance or reimburse a portion of the costs of the acquisition and construction of certain improvements and renovations to Tiger Stadium and a football operations center at LSD, including funding the interest and costs associated with the project. The bonds are secured by the pledged revenues on a parity with (i) the Series 1999 and 2001 bonds. The bonds have a floating interest rate based on the BMA index, which was approximately 3.55% at December 31, 2005. Annual payments began on September 1,2005 and will continue through September 1, 2033.

Under the provisions of the above revenue bond agreements, the Foundation is required to maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio. The Foundation was in compliance with its debt service coverage calculation loan covenant at December 31, 2005.

The debt service requirements on the notes and bonds payable are as follows:

Bonds Total Notes Payable Payable Principal 2006 S 1,239,000 S 2,665,000 $ 3,904,000 2007 1,329,000 2,745,000 4,074,000 2008 407,336 2,825,000 3,232,336 2009 - 2,175,000 2,175,000 2010 - 3,335,000 3,335,000 2011 - 2015 - 18,230,000 18,230,000 2016- 2020 - 24330,000 24330,000 2021 - 2024 - 30,780,000 30,780,000 2025 - 2030 - 31,755,000 31,755,000 2031 - 2033 - 16,070,000 16,070,000 Total $ 2,975,336 $ 134,910,000 $ 137,885,336

Effective April I, 2003, the Foundation entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Morgan Stanley Capital Services Inc. (MSCS), which expires September I, 2028, to hedge its interest rate exposure on the Series 1999 revenue bonds. The agreement covers 100% of the outstanding principal balance over the life of the bonds and effectively fixes the interest rate to the Foundation at 4.01%. The floating rate payor is MSCS and the fixed rate payor is the Foundation. The floating rate is based on the BMA Municipal Swap Index, as defined in the agreement.

The Foundation accounts for the interest rate swap as a fair value hedge as directed by Financial Accounting Standard (FAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Since the Foundation does not report earnings as a separate caption in a statement of financial performance, both the swap agreement and the hedged item, the Series 1999 Bonds, are accounted for at fair value with the change in fair value reported as a change in net assets. The fair market value of the swap agreement and the hedged item as of December 31, 2005, was a liability of approximately $356,000, which represents a change of $207,593 from the prior year, and is presented as a change of net assets on the Statement of Activities.

The Revenue Bonds Series 1999, 2001 and Series 2004 are subject to a remarketing agreement whereby the Foundation obtained a remarketing agent which shall offer for sale and use its best efforts to find purchasers for all bonds or portions thereof for which notice of tender has been received at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the purchase date. To provide for the payment of the bonds, in the event a purchaser is not found for the full amount of the outstanding bonds or default, the Foundation has entered into letter of credit agreements with Hibernia National Bank. The letter of credit agreements authorize Trustees, on behalf of holders of bonds, to make draws on the letters of credit, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, to pay the outstanding principal of and up to 45 days interest on the bonds. Draws on a letter of credit must be promptly reimbursed by the Foundation. Annual fees on the Hibernia letters of credit issued in connection with the Revenue Bond Series 1999 and 2004 are 1% of the outstanding principal. Annual fees on the letter of credit issued in connection with the Revenue Bond Series 2001 are 1.27% of the outstanding principal. As of November 24, 2005, Hibernia National Bank's letters of credit on the revenue Bond Series 1999 and 2004 were replaced with letters of credit issued by Regions Bank. Annual fees on the Regions fetters of credit will be 0,90% of the outstanding principal balance commencing April 1, 2006. There were no outstanding amounts under the letters of credit at December 31, 2005.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

The Foundation is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the financial position of the Foundation.

10. Retirement Savings Plan

The Foundation established a 40l(k) plan (the Plan) effective February 1, 2002, to replace an existing Section 403(b) tax shelter annuity plan. The Plan covers all employees who complete applications to participate in the plan and agree to the terms of the Plan. Participants may contribute up to 25% of their compensation to the Plan each year. TAP will make matching contributions on behalf of each participant up to 7.5% of their contribution. Employees are vested in the employer contributions to the Plan 20% per year after the first year reaching 100% vesting after six years. The Foundation made matching contributions of $73,500 for the year ended December 31, 2005.

11. Scoreboard Sponsorships

In 1999, the Foundation entered into a Cooperative Endeavor Agreement with LSU that obligated the Foundation to acquire, construct and maintain new scoreboards in LSU athletic venues at a total cost of approximately $5.2 million. In return for its fulfillment of this obligation, the Foundation was given an eight year license to solicit certain qualified corporate sponsorship contracts. In connection with its issuance of the Series 2004 Revenue Bonds, LSU extended the Foundation's rights to solicit qualified corporate sponsorship contracts for a period of approximately 35 years. Effective July 1, 2005, the Foundation, with approval of LSU, entered into a ten year lease agreement with Viacom Outdoor Advertising, Inc., d/b/a LSU Sports Properties, whereby the Foundation leased its rights to the scoreboards to Viacom in return for an annual guaranteed rental payment. The rent payment, which was $1.4 million in year one and will increase by $25,000 annually each year during the life of the lease agreement, is due in two equal installments payable in July and October of each year.
