Schedule D, Part V, Line 1c	Line 1c includes $45,574,068 representing an increase in the endowment due to a change in the method of accounting for an equity interest in a foreign support entity. This line also includes $(1,623,545) due to a change in the method of reporting pledges related to endowment funds.
Schedule D, Part V, Line 1d	Column b for Line 1d has been changed to reflect correction of a computational error that was discovered after filing the prior year Form 990
Schedule D, Part V, Line 1e	Column b for Line 1e has been changed to reflect correction of an error (equal and offsetting to the error on Line 1d).
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds	ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE USED TO SUPPORT OPERATIONS, PROVIDE STUDENT AID AND OTHER USES AS DIRECTED BY DONORS. PRINCIPIA'S ENDOWMENT PROVIDES SUBSTANTIAL FUNDING FOR ANNUAL AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. PRINCIPIA INCURS SUBSTANTIAL FIXED COSTS FROM OPERATING TWO SEPARATE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS (4-YEAR LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE AND PRE-K THROUGH 12TH GRADE SCHOOL). CONSEQUENTLY, PRINCIPIA IS MORE HIGHLY DEPENDENT UPON ITS ENDOWMENT TO PROVIDE FUNDS FOR SPENDING THAN SCHOOLS WITH SIMILAR SIZE ENROLLMENT. MANAGEMENT OF THE ENDOWMENT IS OVERSEEN BY AN INVESTMENT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE OFFICE OF THE CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICER.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote	Tax positions taken related to Principia's tax exempt status, unrelated business activities, and other miscellaneous tax positions have been reviewed, and management is of the opinion that material positions taken by Principia would more likely than not be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the positions. Accordingly, management has concluded that as of June 30, 2016, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in Principia's financial statements.
