Joseph J. Doncsecz Associate Vice President for Finance and Corporate Controller The Pennsylvania State University 408 Old Main University Park, PA 16802-1505 October 24, 2014 Dr. Eric J. Barron, President The Pennsylvania State University

Dear Dr. Barron:

The audited consolidated financial statements of The Pennsylvania State University and subsidiaries (the "University") for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are presented on the accompanying pages. These financial statements represent a complete and permanent record of the finances of the University as of and for the years then ended.

These financial statements have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors, and their report has been made a part of this record.

Respectfully submitted, I I Joseph J. Doncsecz Associate Vice President for Finance and Corporate Controller David J. Gr, Senior Vice for Finance and Business, and Treasurer An Equal Opportunity University 5

Deloitte Delome&Touche LLP 1700 Market Street Philadelphia, PA 19103-3984 USA Tel: +1 215 246-2300 Fax: +1 215 569-2441 www.deloitte.com INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Trustees of The Pennsylvania State University University Park, Pennsylvania We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Pennsylvania State University and its subsidiaries (the "University"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the University's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated 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 University'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 consolidated financial statements.

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

Member of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu 6

Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the University as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013

1. THE UNIVERSITY AND RELATED ENTITIES The Pennsylvania State University ("the University'), which was created as an instrumentality of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ('the Commonwealth" or "Pennsylvania"), is organized as a non-profit corporation under the laws of the Commonwealth. As Pennsylvania's land grant university, the University is committed to improving the lives of the people of Pennsylvania, the nation and the world through its integrated, tri-part mission of high-quality teaching, research and outreach.

Basis of Presentation The financial statements of the University include, on a consolidated basis, the combined financial statements of The Milton S. Hershey Medical Center ("TMSHMC" or "Medical Center"), a not-for-profit corporation and Penn State Hershey Health System, Inc. ("Health System") and The Corporation for Penn State and its subsidiaries ("the Corporation").

See Note 11 for additional information about TMSHMC and the Health System. The Corporation is a non-profit member corporation organized in 1985 for the exclusive purpose of benefiting and promoting the interests of the University, the Corporation's sole member. The Corporation's financial statements consist primarily of the assets and revenues of The Pennsylvania College of Technology

("Penn College"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation.

All significant transactions between the University, TMSHMC and the Corporation have been eliminated.

2.

SUMMARY

OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting The University's consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) is the source of authoritative GAAP.

The University's consolidated financial statements include statements of financial position, activities and cash flows. In accordance with FASB ASC requirements, net assets and the changes in net assets are classified as permanently restricted, temporarily restricted or unrestricted.

Permanently restricted net assets consist primarily of the historical amounts of endowed gifts. Additionally, contributions receivable and remainder interests, which are required by donors to be permanently retained, are included at their estimated net present values.

Temporarily restricted net assets consist of contributions receivable and remainder interests whose ultimate use is not permanently restricted. In addition, the excess of current market value over the historical cost of permanently restricted endowments is classified as temporarily restricted net assets.

Unrestricted net assets are all the remaining net assets of the University.

Net unrealized losses on permanently restricted endowment funds for which historical cost exceeds market value are recorded as a reduction to unrestricted net assets.

Revenue from temporarily restricted sources is reclassified as unrestricted revenue when the circumstances of the restriction have been fulfilled. Donor-restricted revenues whose restrictions are met within the same fiscal year are reported as unrestricted income.

13

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts on the financial statements and the disclosure of contingencies and commitments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition Tuition revenue is recognized in the fiscal year in which the substantial portion of the educational term occurs.

Institutional financial aid provided by the University for tuition and fees is reflected as a reduction of tuition and fee revenue.

Revenues for auxiliary enterprises are recognized as the related goods and services are delivered and rendered.

Grant revenues are recognized as the eligible grant activities are conducted.

Payments received in advance for tuition, goods and services are deferred.

Unconditional promises to give are recognized as revenues and receivables in the year made and consist of written or oral promises to contribute to the University in the future. Contributions receivable are recorded with the revenue assigned to the appropriate category of restriction. The amounts are present valued based on timing of expected collections.

TMSHMC and Health System have agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments to TMSHMC and Health System at amounts different from their established rates. Payment arrangements include prospectively determined rates per discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges and per diem payments. Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors and others for services rendered, including estimated retroactive adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors.

In addition, net patient service revenue is net of provision for bad debts of $50.1 million and $43.6 million for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Retroactive adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and adjusted in future periods as final settlements are determined or such estimates change.

TMSHMC provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its charity care policy without charge or at amounts less than established rates. The Medical Center does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care; they are not reported as net patient service revenue. The amounts of direct and indirect costs for services and supplies furnished under the Medical Center's charity care policy totaled approximately $20.2 million and $20.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is based on a ratio of the Medical Center's operational costs to its gross charges. The amount of charges foregone for services and supplies furnished under the Medical Center's charity policy during 2014 and 2013 totaled approximately $56.3 million and $54.9 million, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments The University has provided fair value estimates for certain financial instruments in the notes to the financial statements.

Fair value information presented in the financial statements is based on information available at June 30, 2014 and 2013.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and other accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the terms and relatively short maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying values of the University's loans to students are also reasonable estimates of their fair value, as the total outstanding loans to students as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 have been made at the rates available to students for similar loans at such times. Investments are reported at fair value as disclosed in Note 3. The fair value of the University's bonds payable is disclosed in Note 7. See Note 5 for further discussion of fair value measurements.

Taxes paid for 2014 and 2013 are considered immaterial. Cash and cash equivalents include certain investments in highly liquid instruments with initial maturities of 90 days or less, except for such assets held by the University's investment managers as part of their long-term investment strategies. Short-term investments include other current investments held for general operating purposes with maturities greater than three months but less than 12 months.

Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable, net at June 30 consists of the following:

(in thousands of dollars) 2014 2013 Grants and contracts, net of allowance of $1,211 and $1,241 222,981 166,963 Patient accounts receivable, net of allowance of $60,108 and $54,759 172,104 173,582 Student receivables, net of allowance of $6,689 and $6,434 30,946 33,178 Investment and interest receivable 58,765 78,419 Other, net of allowance of $4,949 and $4,540 42,417 40,262 Total accounts receivable, net 527,M1 The University maintains allowances for doubtful accounts to reflect management's best estimate of probable losses inherent in receivable balances. Management determines the allowances for doubtful accounts based on known factors, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. Receivables are written off when management determines they will not be collected.

Related to patient accounts receivable associated with services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, management analyzes contractually due amounts and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts (for example, for expected uncollectible deductibles and copayments or for payors who are known to be having financial difficulties that make the realization of amounts due unlikely). For receivables from self-pay patients the Medical Center and Health System records a provision for bad debts in the period of service on the basis of its past experience, which indicates that many patients are unable or unwilling to pay the portion of their bill for which they are financially responsible.

In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, account age is taken into consideration. The difference between the standard rates (or the discounted rates if negotiated) and the amounts actually collected after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Loans to Students Loans to students are disbursed to qualified students based on need and include loans granted by the University from institutional resources and under federal government loan programs. Students have a grace period until repayment is required based upon the earlier of graduation or no longer achieving at least half-time enrollment status. The grace period varies depending on the type of loan. Loans accrue interest after the grace period and are repaid directly to the University. Loans to students are uncollateralized and carry default risk.

At June 30, 2014 and 2013, student loans represent 0.5% and 0.6% of total assets, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements The availability of funds for loans under federal government revolving loan programs is dependent on reimbursements to the pool from repayments of outstanding loans.

Funds advanced by the federal government of $46.3 million and $45.3 million at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are ultimately refundable to the government and are classified as liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position. Outstanding loans cancelled under the program result in a reduction of the funds available to loan and a decrease in the liability to the federal government.

At June 30, 2014 and 2013, loans to students consisted of the following:

Loans to students, net 60,817 58,84 Allowances for doubtful accounts are established based on prior collection experience and current economic factors which, in management's judgment, could influence the ability of loan recipients to repay the amounts according to the terms of the loan. Further, the University does not evaluate credit quality of student loans receivable after the initial approval of the loan. Loans to students are considered past due when payment is not received by the due date, and interest continues to accrue until the loan is paid in full or written off. When loans to students are deemed uncollectible, an allowance for doubtful accounts is established.

The University considers the age of the amounts outstanding in determining the collectability of loans to students. The aging of the loans to students based on days delinquent and the related allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:

Investments The University's noncurrent investments represent the University's endowment and other investments held for general operating purposes. The University's investments are reported at fair value in the accompanying financial statements. Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt securities are reported at fair values with gains and losses included in the consolidated statements of activities.

In the management of investments, the University authorizes certain investment managers to purchase derivative securities to attain a desired market position; and the University may directly invest in derivative securities to attain a desired market position. The University does not trade or issue derivative financial instruments other than through the investment management practices noted above. The University records derivative securities at fair value with gains and losses reflected in the consolidated statements of activities.

The estimated fair value amounts for marketable debt, equity and fixed income securities held by the University have been reviewed by the University and determined using available market information as supplied by the various financial institutions that act as trustees or custodians for the University. For non-liquid holdings, generally limited partnership investments in private real estate, venture capital, private equity, natural resources, and private debt, estimated fair value is determined based upon financial information provided by the general partner. This financial information includes assumptions and methods that were reviewed by University management. The University believes that the estimated fair value is a reasonable estimate of market value as of June 30, 2014 and 2013. Because the limited partnerships are not readily marketable, the estimated value is subject to uncertainty and, therefore, may differ from the value that would have been used had a ready market existed, and such differences could be material.

Income on operating investments and income used for the annual distribution under the annual spending policy for endowments are reported in operating revenues within the consolidated statement of activities.

Beneficial Interest in Perpetual Trusts The University is the beneficiary of certain perpetual trusts held and administered by outside trustees. The fair value of these trust assets has been recorded as permanently restricted net assets and related beneficial interest in perpetual trusts in the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Investment in Plant Total investment in plant as of June 30 is comprised of the following:

(in thousands of dollars) 2014 2013 Land Buildings Improvements other than buildings Equipment Total plant Less accumulated depreciation Total investment in plant, net 123,532 5,354,902 587,492 1,186,744 7,252,670 (3,308,418) 3,944,252 116,050 5,043,463 559,877 1,100,431 6,819,821 (3,089,057) 3.3.6 The value of land, buildings, and equipment is recorded at cost or, if received as gifts, at fair value at date of gift. The University does not capitalize the cost of library books. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Useful lives range from 4 to 50 years for buildings, 10 to 20 years for improvements other than buildings, and 1 to 20 years for equipment. Depreciation expense was $275.4 million and $251.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The University has certain building and equipment lease agreements in effect which are considered capital leases that are included as long-term debt in the statements of financial position. These leases have been capitalized at the lower of fair market value or net present value of the minimum lease payments. Buildings and equipment held under capital leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. The capitalized cost and accumulated depreciation of the leases at June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $127.9 million and $42.5 million, and $135.5 million and $41.8 million, respectively.

Accounts Payable and Other Accrued Expenses Accounts payable and other accrued expenses at June 30 consist of the following:

(in thousands of dollars) 2014 2013 Accounts payable (non-Medical Center)

Medical Center accounts payable and other accrued expenses Accrued payroll and other related liabilities Accrued bond interest Student deposits Total accounts payable and other accrued expenses 231,910 366,637 186,570 89,851 13,093 5,391 187,667 87,300 13,674 4,818 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, which include investment in plant and definite-lived intangible assets, are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized in change in net assets in the period that the impairment occurs.

Asset Retirement Obligations Under ASC 410-20, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations -

Asset Retirement Obligations, organizations must accrue for costs related to legal obligations to perform certain activities in connection with retirement, disposal, or abandonment of assets. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is not conditional even though the timing or method may be conditional.

18

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements The University has identified asbestos abatement and the decommissioning of the Breazeale Nuclear Reactor as conditional asset retirement obligations.

These obligations are reported as part of other noncurrent liabilities within the consolidated statement of financial position. The following table details the change in liabilities for the years ended June 30:

(in thousands of dollars)

Balance as of June 30, 2012 61,934 Accretion expense 7,651 Liabilities settled (4,293)

Balance as of June 30, 2013 65,292 Accretion expense 5,229 Liabilities settled (4,188)

Balance as of June 30, 2014 66,33a Annuities Payable Annuities payable consist of annuity payments currently due and the actuarial amount of annuities payable.

The actuarial amount of annuities payable is the present value of the aggregate liability for annuity payments over the expected lives of the beneficiaries.

Income Taxes The University files U.S. federal and state tax returns. The statute of limitations on the University's federal returns generally remains open for three years following the year they are filed. In accordance with ASC 740 Income Taxes Topic, the University continues to evaluate tax positions and has determined there is no material impact on the University financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-05, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Not-for-Profit Entities: Classification of the Sale Proceeds of Donated Financial Assets in the Statement of Cash Flows."

This guidance provides clarification on how entities classify cash receipts arising from the sale of certain donated financial assets in the statement of cash flows.

This guidance is effective for the University beginning July 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, "Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities." This guidance provides clarification on the scope of the offsetting disclosure requirements in ASU 2011-11.

3. INVESTMENTS Investments by major category as of June 30 are summarized as follows:

(in thousands of dollars) 2014 2013 Money markets Fixed income:

U.S. government/agency U.S. corporate Foreign Other Equities Private capital Total 213,878 1,190,248 803,990 408,364 169,962 1,742,632 1,155,812 5.684.886 371,987 1,174,609 706,291 372,515 146,617 1,342,487 902,728 5,017,2a4 Other fixed income investments consist of collateralized mortgage obligations, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities.

Equity investments are comprised of domestic and foreign common stocks. Private capital consists primarily of interests in private real estate, venture capital, private equity, natural resources, private debt, commodities and hedge fund limited partnerships.

Futures contracts, which are fully cash collateralized, comprise the University's directly held derivative instruments at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are marked to market daily and are included in the fair value of the University's investments. The fair value of derivative instruments is included in the fair value of the University's investments within the money market category. Futures contracts have minimal credit risk because the counterparties are the exchanges themselves. Fully cash collateralized derivative securities comprised $172.8 million, 3.0% of total investments, and $270.5 million, 5.4% of total investments at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The University's derivatives consist of S&P 500 and Treasury futures and are employed as a low cost, passive investment vehicle with daily liquidity which allows the University to maintain desired market exposure in light of irregular cash flows.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

4. ENDOWMENT NET ASSETS The University's endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated to function as endowments. As required by GAAP, net assets associated with endowment funds, including funds designated to function as endowments, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions.

The ASC Not-for-Profit Entities Presentation of Financial Statements Subtopic (ASC Subtopic 958-205) provides guidance on the net asset classification of donor-restricted endowment funds for not-for-profit organizations subject to an enacted version of the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act

("UPMIFA") and improves disclosure about an organization's endowment funds regardless of whether the organization is subject to UPMIFA.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has not adopted UPMIFA but rather has enacted Pennsylvania Act 141 ("PA Act 141"). PA Act 141 permits an organization's trustees to define income as a stipulated percentage of endowment assets (between 2% and 7% of the fair value of the assets averaged over a period of at least three preceding years) without regard to actual interest, dividend, or realized and unrealized gains.

The University has interpreted PA Act 141 to permit the University to spend the earnings of its endowment based on a total return approach, without regard to the fair value of the original gift. As a result of this interpretation, the University classifies as permanently restricted net assets the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and 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. Funds functioning as endowments are established at the direction of University management and are classified as unrestricted net assets due to the lack of external donor restrictions. Gains and losses attributable to permanent endowments are recorded as temporarily restricted net assets and gains and losses attributable to funds functioning as endowments are recorded as unrestricted net assets.

From time to time, due to unfavorable market fluctuations, the fair value of some assets associated with individual donor-restricted endowment funds may fall below the level that donors require to be retained as a perpetual fund, while other assets are unaffected to the same extent and maintain or exceed the level required. The aggregate amount of deficiencies at June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $1.0 million and $2.5

million, respectively, reported in unrestricted net assets on the consolidated statement of activities. Subsequent investment gains will be used to restore the balance up to the fair market value of the original gift. Subsequent gains above that amount will be recorded as temporarily restricted net assets.

The overall management objective for the University's pooled endowment funds is to preserve or grow the real (inflation-adjusted) purchasing power of the assets through a prudent long-term investment strategy. This objective would be achieved on a total return basis. Under these policies, as approved by the Board of Trustees and the Penn State Investment Council, the primary investment objective of the University's pooled endowment is to attain a real total return (net of investment management fees) that at least equals a total annual effective spending rate of 5.25% (program spending of 4.5% plus administrative costs of 0.75%) over the long term.

To satisfy its long-term rate-of-return objectives, the University 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 University targets diversified asset allocation that places a greater emphasis on equity-based investments to achieve its long-term return objectives within prudent risk constraints. The endowment assets of the University are invested in a broad range of equities and fixed income securities, thereby limiting the market risk exposure in any one institution or individual investment.

The University has a policy of appropriating for distribution each year a certain percentage (4.5% for 2014 and 2013) of its pooled endowment fund's average fair market value over the prior five years preceding the 22

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements fiscal year in which the distribution is planned. Accordingly, over the long term, the University expects the current spending policy to allow its endowment to provide generous current spending while preserving "intergenerational equity".

This is consistent with the University's objective to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets held in perpetuity as well as to provide additional real growth through new gifts and investment returns.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The University utilizes the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes into three broad levels, the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets as of the measurement date. Such instruments valued at Level 1, primarily consist of securities that are directly held and actively traded in public markets.

Level 2 - Inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived from observable market data by correlation or other means. Level 2 measures include University interests in certain debt instruments and commingled investment funds which NAV is used as a practical expedient. These funds are redeemable at NAV as of the measurement date, generally within 90 days.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 instruments primarily consist of investment funds for which NAV is used as a practical expedient. The University does not have the ability to redeem the funds at NAV as of the measurement date.

In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The University's assessment of significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including consideration of inputs specific to the asset.

A share method of accounting for the LTIP is utilized by the University. Each participating fund enters into and withdraws from the LTIP based on monthly share values. At June 30, 2014 and 2013, fair value of endowment funds and funds functioning as endowments within the LTIP totaled $2,294.6 million and $1,941.1 million, respectively. At June 30, 2014 and 2013, fair value of operating funds included in the LTIP totaled $1,145.6 million and $1,008.9 million, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Commingled funds include investments that aggregate assets from multiple investors and are managed collectively following a prescribed strategy. Redemptions vary from daily to quarterly with required notification of 90 days or less. The non-U.S. equity strategy is invested in developed and developing countries outside of the United States, and spans the entire equity capitalization spectrum. These collective portfolios preclude the need to obtain securities registration in foreign countries. One commingled fund has 2 years remaining on a 3-year gate and a second is 50% redeemable in three years. The two make up approximately 12.9% and 6.8%, respectively of commingled portfolio.

Marketable Investment Funds include several hedge funds whose underlying positions are traded via public securities markets. Liquidity terms range from quarterly to annually with advance notification for redemption ranging from 30 to 90 days. The fair values of the investments for each fund in this category have been estimated using the net asset value of the Long Term Investment Pool's (LTIP) share holdings in the fund.

Five major investment strategies are included within this category. Absolute Return refers to relative value strategies. Directional refers to equity long/short strategies in both U.S. and non-U.S. markets. Opportunistic refers to global multi-strategy. Distressed Debt refers to securities rated below investment grade, along with non-rated debt. Commodities refer to publicly traded commodity instruments primarily including futures and options.

Nonmarketable Investment Partnerships include limited partnership interests in a variety of illiquid investments. The fair values of the investments for each fund in this category have been estimated using the net asset value of the LTIP's ownership interest in partner's capital and cannot be redeemed. Realizations from each fund are received as the underlying investments are liquidated or distributed, typically within 10 years after initial commitment. Unfunded commitments represent remaining commitments of the LTIP's drawdown funds as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Five major investment strategies are included within this category. Private Real Estate includes properties primarily located in the U.S. Venture Capital includes non-public startups and enterprises in early stages of growth located globally. Private Equity includes buyouts of previously public companies as well as enterprises that are planning to go public in the near future, including funds focusing on opportunities outside the U.S.

Natural Resources largely include companies primarily involved in oil and natural gas in addition to a variety of other natural resources. Private Debt includes global private credit securities rated below investment grade as well as non-rated debt.

9. RETIREMENT BENEFITS The University provides retirement benefits for substantially all regular employees, primarily through either contributory defined benefit plans administered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania State Employees' Retirement System and The Public School Employees' Retirement System or defined contribution plans administered by the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association - College Retirement Equity Fund and Fidelity Investments. The University is billed for its share of the estimated actuarial cost of the defined benefit plans ($50.9 million and $35.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively).

The University's total cost for retirement benefits, included in expenses, is $168.1 million and $146.6 million for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

10. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS The University sponsors a retiree medical plan covering eligible retirees and eligible dependents. This program includes a Preferred Provider Organization ("PPO") plan for retirees and their dependents who are not eligible for Medicare, a Medicare Advantage PPO plan and a Medicare Supplement plan.

In addition, the University provides retiree life insurance benefits at no cost to the retiree.

Employees who were hired prior to January 1, 2010 are eligible for medical coverage and life insurance after they retire if either of the following requirements are satisfied:

they are at least age 60 and have at least 15 years of regular full-time employment and participation in a University-sponsored medical plan immediately preceding the retirement date regardless of age, if they have at least 25 years of regular full-time service. The last 10 of those 25 years of University service must be continuous and they must participate in a University -sponsored medical plan during the last 10 years immediately preceding the retirement date.

The retiree PPO medical plan and the life insurance coverage are self-funded programs, and all medical claims, death benefits and other expenses are paid from the unrestricted net assets of the University. The Medicare Advantage PPO plan and the Medicare Supplement plan are fully insured. The retirees pay varying amounts for coverage under the medical plan.

For those employees who were hired after December 31, 2009, the University will contribute funds each month on their behalf to a retirement healthcare savings plan. This plan is designed to help pay for qualified medical and health-related expenses in retirement, including the purchase of a health insurance policy.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Retirees will be eligible to access their Penn State Retirement Savings Account when they are no longer actively employed at Penn State and have satisfied either of the following requirements:

completed 25 years of continuous full-time service and are age 60 or older completed a minimum of 15 years of continuous full-time service and are age 65 or older.

Included in unrestricted net assets at June 30, 2014 and 2013 are the following amounts that have not yet been recognized in net periodic postretirement cost: unrecognized prior service cost (benefit) of ($64.6) million and ($86.3) million and unrecognized actuarial loss of $652.9 million and $547.6 million, respectively.

The following sets forth the plan's benefit obligation, plan assets and funded status reconciled with the amounts recognized in the University's consolidated statements of financial position at June 30:

The weighted average postretirement benefit obligation discount rate was 4.50%

and 5.00% for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

If the healthcare cost trend rate assumptions were increased by 1% in each year, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation would be increased by $367.2 million and $318.1 million as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The effect of this change on the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of the net periodic postretirement benefit cost would be an increase of $27.4 million and $32.3 million as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. If the healthcare cost trend rate assumptions were decreased by 1% in 33

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements each year, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation would be decreased by $294.3 million and

$256.6 million as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The effect of this change on the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of the net periodic postretirement benefit cost would be a decrease of

$21.0 million and $24.5 million as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Gains and losses in excess of 10% of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation are amortized over the average future service to assumed retirement of active participants.

Postretirement benefits expected to be paid for the years ended June 30 are as follows:

THE MILTON S. HERSHEY MEDICAL CENTER AND PENN STATE HERSHEY HEALTH SYSTEM The University's wholly-owned subsidiary, TMSHMC, owns the assets of the clinical enterprise of the Hershey Medical Center complex. The University owns the Hershey Medical Center complex, including all buildings and land occupied by the Medical Center and operates the College of Medicine. The clinical facilities of the Hershey Medical Center complex are leased to TMSHMC.

TMSHMC makes certain payments to support the College of Medicine.

The Health System is a corporate investor in healthcare joint ventures, which are supportive of the missions of the Medical Center. The Health System was organized in 1995 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation for the purpose of organizing components of an integrated health care delivery system. The Health System recorded non-controlling interest related to the acquisition of additional ownership interest in a joint venture. This noncontrolling interest is recorded in the net assets within the consolidated statements of financial position with a value at June 30, 2014 and 2013 of $961,000 and $831,000, respectively.

On June 26, 2014, a letter of intent and term sheet ("agreement") was executed between the University, the Medical Center, the Health System and Pinnacle Health System. The purpose of the agreement was to set forth certain non-binding understandings and certain binding agreements between the parties. The intent is to form a new Health Enterprise in central Pennsylvania. This new collaborative innovative enterprise would bring together a high-performing university medical center and a community health system. It would provide increased access to a wider range of services and full spectrum of care to patients over a broad geographic base. Both systems will continue to operate independently and as normal until an integration is finalized and all necessary approvals are obtained.

12. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS Contractual Obligations The University has contractual obligations for the construction of new buildings and for additions to existing buildings in the amount of $814.6 million of which $619.8 million has been paid or accrued as of June 30, 2014. The contract costs are being financed from available resources and from borrowings.

Letters of Credit The University has available letters of credit in the amount of $19.1 million and $20.5 million as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These letters of credit are used primarily to comply with minimum state and federal regulatory laws that govern various University activities.

The fair value of these letters of credit approximates contract values based on the nature of the fee arrangements with the issuing banks.

34

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Guarantees The University has a contract with a third party whereby the third party acts as an agent of the University in connection with procurement of electricity. The University guarantees the payment of the obligations of the third party incurred on behalf of the University to counterparties. No liabilities related to guarantees have been recorded as of June 30, 2014.

Self-Insurance The University has a coordinated program of commercial and self-insurance for medical malpractice claims at TMSHMC through the use of a qualified trust and a domestic captive insurance company in combination with a self-insured retention layer and is supplementing this program through participation in the Pennsylvania Medical Care Availability and Reduction of Error Fund ("Mcare Fund"), in accordance with Pennsylvania law.

An estimate of the present value, discounted at 2% for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, of the medical malpractice claims liability in the amount of $96.4 million and $96.7 million is recorded as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

On July 1, 2003, TMSHMC became self-insured for all medical malpractice claims asserted on or after July 1, 2003, for all amounts that are below the coverage of the TMSHMC's excess insurance policies and not included in the insurance coverage of the Mcare Fund. Under the self-insurance program, TMSHMC is required to maintain a malpractice trust fund in an amount at least equal to the expected loss of known claims.

The balance of this trust fund was $19.7 million and $20.7 million at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

TMSHMC intends to fund any claims due during the next year from cash flows from operations.

With approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry ("PA-DLI"), the University elected to self-insure potential obligations applicable Pennsylvania workers' compensation.

Certain claims under the program are contractually administered by a private agency. The University purchased insurance coverage for excess obligations over $600,000 per incident. An estimate of the self-insured workers' compensation claims liability in the amount of $10.1 million and $10.9 million, discounted at 0.75%, is recorded as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The University has established a trust fund, in the amount of $12.8 million and $12.7 million at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as required by PA-DLI, to provide for the payment of claims under this self-insurance program. TMSHMC is self-insured for workers' compensation claims and has purchased an excess policy through a commercial insurer which covers individual claims in excess of

$500,000 per incident for workers' compensation claims.

The University and TMSHMC are self-insured for certain health care benefits provided to employees. The University and TMSHMC have purchased excess policies which cover employee health benefit claims in excess of $500,000 and $350,000 per employee per year, respectively. The University and TMSHMC provide for reported claims and claims incurred but not reported.

Litigation and Contingencies In November 2011, the University was made aware of certain allegations in a Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Grand Jury presentment. Various legal proceedings and investigations have arisen as a result of such allegations, including criminal proceedings against former officers and employees of the University. Certain claims and civil litigation have been filed against the University with anticipation that other complaints could be filed. The University accrued $59.7 million for 26 of 32 known claims at June 30, 2013 with such claims subsequently paid during fiscal year 2014. These costs were included in institutional support within the consolidated statement of activities. Two of the claims were deemed to have no merit through the due diligence process. Subsequently, the University has been notified of five additional claims, bringing known claims to 37, two of which were made known to the University subsequent to June 30, 2014. Without having knowledge of the number and nature of unknown claims and in view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of our remaining eleven known claims, each with their own unique circumstances that give rise to their alleged claims, and given the various stages of the proceedings, we are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or the ultimate legal and financial liability, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss. Accordingly, no amounts have been accrued in the 2014 financial statements for these claims although a loss is reasonably possible in future periods which could have a material adverse effect on our current and future financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the University has incurred costs, net of insurance reimbursements totaling $15.6 million and $17.3 million, respectively, for internal investigation, legal, communications and other related costs. These costs are included in institutional support within the consolidated statement of activities. Insurance reimbursements for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 totaled $64,000 and $249,000, respectively. Amounts paid directly by insurance carriers for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 totaled $2,681,000 and $2,994,000, respectively.

The University has submitted claims to insurance carriers at June 30, 2014 related to the claims settled and certain legal costs incurred to date. Amounts of future insurance reimbursement are unknown as of June 30, 2014 and as a result no insurance recovery accruals have been recorded in the 2014 financial statements.

Based on its operation of the Medical Center (see Note 11), the University, like the rest of the healthcare industry, is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. Compliance with these laws and regulations can be subject to government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions. Recently, government reviews of healthcare providers for compliance with regulations have increased. Although the University believes it has done its best to comply with these numerous regulations, such government reviews could result in significant repayments of previously billed and collected revenues from patient services.

On July 12, 2013, the University received a preliminary report from the U.S. Department of Education based on the program review of the University's compliance with the Clery Act, a federal law related to campus safety. The Department of Education will make a final program review determination after the process is complete. The outcome and financial impacts of the program review are unknown as of the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Various other legal proceedings have arisen in the normal course of conducting University business. The outcome of such litigation is not expected to have a material effect on the financial position of the University.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The University has evaluated subsequent events through October 24, 2014, the date on which the consolidated financial statements were issued. It did not identify any subsequent events to be disclosed other than those below or previously noted.

I The Pennsylvania State University Financial Assurance for Cost of Decommissioning Activities Self-Guarantee Agreement with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission December 23, 2014 (Source: NUREG-1757, Vol. 3, Rev 1, Appendix A, Section A.9.12)

Guarantee made by The Pennsylvania State University, a nonprofit university, organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, herein referred to as "guarantor," to the U. S.

1.

The guarantor has full authority and capacity to enter into this self-guarantee by the bylaws of the Trustees of the Pennsylvania State University.

2.

This self-guarantee is being issued to comply with regulations issued by NRC, an agency of the U. S. Government, pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974. NRC has promulgated regulations in Title 10, Chapter I of the Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 30, 50, and 70, which require that a holder of, or an applicant for, a materials license issued pursuant to 10 CFR Parts 30, 50, and 70 provide assurance that funds will be available when needed for required decommissioning activities.

3.

The self-guarantee is issued to provide financial assurance for decommissioning activities for the licenses and facilities shown. The decommissioning costs for these activities are as follows:

4.

The guarantor meets or exceeds the following financial test criteria for a nonprofit university that issues bonds, and agrees to comply with all notification requirements as specified in 10 CFR 30 and 10 CFR 30 Appendix E.

Financial Test: The current rating for our most recent uninsured, uncollateralized, and unencumbered bond issuance is AA as issued by Standard & Poor's and Aa2 as issued by Moody's.

5.

The guarantor does not have a parent company holding majority control of its voting stock.

6.

Decommissioning activities as used below refer to the activities required by 10 CFR Part 30, 50, and 70 for decommissioning of the facilities identified above.

7.

Pursuant to the guarantor's authority to enter into this guarantee, the guarantor guarantees to the NRC that the guarantor shall:

(a)

Carry out the required decommissioning activities, as required by the licenses listed above.

8.

The guarantor agrees to submit revised financial statements, financial test data, and an auditor's special report and reconciling schedule annually within 180 days of the close of its fiscal year.

9.

Not applicable.

10.

The guarantor agrees that if, at the end of any fiscal year before termination of this self-guarantee, it fails to meet the self-guarantee financial test criteria, it shall send within 90 days of the end of the fiscal year, by certified mail, notice to the NRC that it intends to provide alternative financial assurance as specified in 10 CFR Part 30, 50, or 70. Within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year, the guarantor shall establish such financial assurance.

11.

The guarantor also agrees to notify the NRC in writing in advance of any proposed change in or transfer of ownership of the licensed activity and to maintain this guarantee until the new licensee provides alternative financial assurance acceptable to the beneficiary.

12.

The guarantor agrees that if it determines, at any time other than as described in Recital 10, that it no longer meets the self-guarantee financial test criteria or it is disallowed from continuing as a self-guarantor, it shall establish alternative financial assurance as specified in 10 CFR Parts 30, 50, or 70 within 30 days.

13.

The guarantor, as well as its successors and assigns and agrees to remain bound jointly and severally under this guarantee notwithstanding any or all of the following:

amendment or modification of the license or NRC-approved decommissioning funding plan for that facility, the extension or reduction of the time of performance of required activities, or any other modification or alteration of an obligation of the 2

I licensee pursuant to 10 CFR Parts 30, 50, or 70.

14.

The guarantor agrees that it shall be liable for all litigation costs incurred by the NRC in any successful effort to enforce the agreement against the guarantor. Such litigation costs shall not be deducted from or otherwise reduce the financial assurance provided by this guarantee.

15.

The guarantor agrees to remain bound under this self-guarantee for as long as it, as licensee, must comply with the applicable financial assurance requirements of 10 CFR Part 30, 50, or 70, for the previously listed facilities, except that the guarantor may cancel this self-guarantee by sending notice by certified mail to the NRC, such cancellation to become effective not before an alternative financial assurance mechanism has been put in place by the guarantor.

16.

The guarantor agrees that if it, as licensee, fails to provide alternative financial assurance as specified in 10 CFR Part 30, 50, or 70 and obtain written approval of such assurance from the NRC within 90 days after a notice of cancellation by the guarantor is received by the NRC from the guarantor, the guarantor shall make full payment under the self-guarantee.

17.

The guarantor expressly waives notice of acceptance of this self-guarantee by the NRC. The guarantor also expressly waives notice of amendments or modifications of the decommissioning requirements.

18.

If the guarantor files financial reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, then it shall promptly submit them to its independent auditor and to NRC during each year in which this self guarantee is in effect.

19.

(a)

Declare that the financial assurance guaranteed by the guarantee agreement is immediately due and payable to the standby trust set up to protect the public health and safety and the environment, without diligence, presentment, demand, protect, or any other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by guarantor; and 3

. I -.

(b)

Exercise any and all of its other rights under applicable law.

20.

The guarantor agrees to notify the NRC, in writing, immediately following the filing of a voluntary or involuntary petition for bankruptcy under any chapter of Title 11 (Bankruptcy) of the United States Code, or the occurrence of any other event listed in paragraph 19 of this guarantee and by or against the guarantor; the licensee; an entity (as that term is defined in 11 U.S.C. 101(14)) controlling the licensee or listing the license or licensees as property of the estate; or an affiliate (as that term is defined in 11 U.S.C. 101(2)) of the licensee. This notification must include: a description of the event, including major creditors, the amounts involved, and the actions taken to assure that the amount of funds guaranteed by the guarantee for decommissioning will be transferred to the standby trust as soon as possible; if a petition of bankruptcy was filed, the identity of the bankruptcy court in which the petition for bankruptcy was filed; and the date of filing of any petitions.

21.

Not applicable.

22.

The guarantor agrees that if, at any time before termination of this self-guarantee, its most recent bond issuance ceases to be rated in any category of "A-" and above by Standard and Poor's or in any category of "A3" and above by Moody's, the licensee will notify the Commission in writing within 20 days after publication of the change by the rating service.

I hereby certify that this self-guarantee is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

Effective date:
