SchD_P10_S00_L02Schedule D, Part X, Line 2The Internal Revenue Service has determined that TPT is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. TPT is also exempt from state income taxes. TPT does pay income taxes on business income which is generated by business activities not substantially related to the exempt purpose of TPT and regularly carried on by TPT. TPT follows the accounting standards for contingencies in evaluating uncertain tax positions. This guidance prescribes recognition threshold principles for the financial statement recognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return that are not certain to be realized. No liability has been recognized by TPT for uncertain tax positions as of August 31, 2012 and 2011. TPT's tax returns are subject to review and examination by federal and state authorities. The tax returns for the current year as well as fiscal years 2009 through 2011 are open to examination by federal and state authorities
