3 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Trustees The University of Tulsa We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of The University of Tulsa (the University) as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the University's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing 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 over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the University as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in its consolidated net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

8 THE UNIVERSITY OF TULSA NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 and 2011 (dollars in thousands) Note 1 Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization The University of Tulsa is an independent comprehensive institution providing undergraduate, graduate, and professional education in a variety of multicultural programs. The University has an undergraduate enrollment of approximately 3,000 and a graduate and law enrollment of approximately 1,090. Principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the University of Tulsa and The Gilcrease Museum Management Trust (the Trust) (collectively, the University). Effective July 1, 2008, the University formed the Trust and entered into a Management Agreement with The City of Tulsa and The Board of Trustees of the Thomas Gilcrease Institute of American History and Art to manage and operate Gilcrease Museum. The University has agreed that it will incorporate fundraising for the endowment and operations of Gilcrease Museum into its fundraising efforts and will separately account for such funds and manage the investment of such funds within the University's policies. The Trust is consolidated due to the University's control and economic interest in it. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated statements. Basis of financial statements The financial statements of the University have been prepared on the accrual basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Net assets are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions as follows: Unrestricted Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions. Unrestricted net assets may be designated for specific purposes by action of the Board of Trustees or may otherwise be limited by contractual agreements with outside parties. Temporarily restricted Net assets whose use by the University is subject to donor-imposed restrictions that can be fulfilled by actions of the University or by the passage of time. Permanently restricted Net assets subject to donor-imposed restrictions that they be maintained permanently by the University. Generally, the donors of these assets permit the University to use all or part of the income earned on related investments for general or specific purposes. Such net assets also include the University's beneficial interests in irrevocable trusts held by others. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 7

9 Measure of operations The increase (decrease) from operating activities reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of activities excludes endowment income (losses) in excess of the University's spending policy, changes in the fair value of beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others, gifts for capital acquisitions and endowments, permanently restricted gifts and other income, changes in donor restrictions and other reclassifications and unusual or nonrecurring items. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and on deposit in demand and interest-bearing accounts administered by the University with original maturities of three months or less. Investments The University's investments in common stocks and mutual funds with readily determinable fair values and investments in debt securities including corporate obligations, commercial paper, and Treasury obligations are reported at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position. Nonmarketable investments in hedge funds and private equities reflect the estimated fair value of the underlying assets or cost adjusted for transactions if no meaningful estimate of market value is available. Other investments are reported at amounts that are not materially different from their fair value. The University's investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term, and such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the consolidated statements of activities. Significant fluctuations in fair values could occur from year to year and the amounts the University will ultimately realize could differ materially. Income and gains or losses on investments are generally reported as follows: Increases in permanently restricted net assets if the terms of the gift that gave rise to the investment or applicable law require income and gains or losses be added to the principal of a permanent endowment. Increases in temporarily restricted net assets if the terms of the gift or applicable law impose restrictions on the use of the income. For this purpose, restrictions on funds for scholarships are not considered met until the specific scholarship funds have been expended. Increases in unrestricted net assets in all other cases. Generally, losses on the investments of restricted endowments reduce temporarily restricted net assets to the extent donor-imposed temporary restrictions on net appreciation of investments have not been met before the loss occurs. Any remaining losses reduce unrestricted net assets, but can be restored through subsequent investment gains. Contributions receivable Contributions are recorded at fair value. Unconditional promises to give are recorded net of an allowance for doubtful receivables estimated based on such factors as prior collections history, types of contributions and the nature of the fundraising activity. Amounts due in more than one year are recorded at net realizable discounted cash flow using an appropriate discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. Amortization of the discount is recorded as additional contribution revenue. 8

10 Gifts of land, buildings and equipment and other long-lived assets are reported as unrestricted support unless explicit donor stipulations specify how or how long the donated assets must be used, in which case the gift is reported as restricted support. Conditional promises to give are not recorded until conditions are substantially met. Fair value of financial instruments The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each financial classification: Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturity. Contributions receivables the fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at a rate of 5% for contributions due in excess of one year. Investments, deposits with bond trustee and beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others with readily determinable fair values the fair value is based on quoted market prices. See Note 4 for determination of fair value of nonmarketable investments. Student loans it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of these receivables since they contain federally mandated interest rates and repayment terms subject to significant restrictions as to their transfer and disposition. Bonds, notes and mortgages payable the fair value is determined by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to the University for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by the University's bankers. Educational plant Plant facilities, including library books, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or, if received as a gift, at fair value or appraised value at the date received, less accumulated depreciation. Generally, improvements, renovations, and equipment purchases in excess of $5 are capitalized. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of buildings (50 years), improvements (20 years), and equipment and library books (5-20 years). The University records impairments to its educational plant when, and if, it becomes probable that the carrying value of these assets will not be fully recovered over the estimated lives of the assets. Impairments, if any, are recorded to reduce the carrying value of the asset to the net realizable value determined by management based on facts and circumstances in existence at the time of the determination, estimates of probable future economic conditions, and other information. No impairments were required in 2012 or Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on the first-in, first-out basis. Student loans receivable Student loans receivable consist primarily of loans made to students under U.S. Government loan programs. The loans are stated at estimated net realizable value. Beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others Beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others represent amounts held for the beneficial interest of the University under irrevocable perpetual trust agreements between donors and third-party trustees. The 9

11 University's interest in the trusts are recorded at the fair value of the net assets of the trusts, with net increases or decreases in net assets being reported as changes to permanently restricted net assets. The amounts the University will ultimately realize could differ materially and significant fluctuations in fair values could occur from year to year. Deposits with bond trustee Deposits with bond trustee consist of the unexpended bond proceeds and debt service funds for bonds payable. These funds are invested in cash equivalents and U.S. Government obligations and will be used for designated projects, required bond reserves or payment of debt service. Advances under federal loan programs Funds provided by the U.S. Government primarily under the Federal Perkins Loan Program are loaned to qualified students and may be re-loaned upon collection. These funds are ultimately refundable to the government. Advances under grants and contracts Grants and contracts consist primarily of contractual agreements with governmental and private entities for the performance of research services and other sponsored programs. Revenues are generally recognized as expenses are incurred. Amounts received in advance are reported as advances under grants and contracts. Cost of borrowing Bond issue costs are amortized over the term of the related obligations using the interest method. Tuition discount, financial aid and deferred revenue Tuition discounts and financial aid awarded to nonemployees in the form of scholarships, grants and fellowships, including amounts awarded to students from grants and contributions to the University for this purpose, have been reported as a reduction of tuition revenues. Tuition discounts granted to employees and their dependents are recorded as compensation expense in the appropriate functional expense classification. Deferred revenue, primarily tuition, includes those payments received before services or products are provided by the University. Expenses and other activity Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets. Temporarily restricted net assets for which donor-imposed conditions are met are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported as net assets released from restrictions. Net assets released from restrictions represent satisfaction of purpose restrictions or passage of the stipulated time period on expenditures made pursuant to donor specifications. Investment income, contributions and trust distributions restricted for scholarships and financial aid are released from restrictions as awards are made by the University in accordance with its policies governing the administration of financial aid and the requirements of donors. The costs of providing the various programs and supporting activities of the University have been summarized on a functional basis in the consolidated statements of activities. Accordingly, certain costs have been allocated based on total personnel costs or other systematic bases. Fundraising expense incurred was $6,995 and $5,725 in 2012 and 2011, respectively. 10

12 Income taxes The University is an organization exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and has been determined not to be a private foundation under Section 509(a) of the Code. As a result, as long as the University maintains its tax exemption, it will not be subject to income tax. The accounting for income taxes may, at times, involve some degree of uncertainty and, as such, lead to uncertain tax positions having been taken. Management evaluated the University's tax positions and concluded that the University had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. Generally, the University is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the U.S. federal, state or local tax authorities for years before Subsequent events The University's management has evaluated subsequent events through October 10, 2012, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Catlett Trust 1,411 1,537 Other , ,152 Other endowment assets: Cash and cash equivalents 11,472 16,094 Contributions receivable 17,909 16,399 Investments 309, ,677 Total endowment assets $ 802,453 $ 817,322 Endowment investments include perpetual endowments included in permanently restricted net assets, gifts, gains and term endowments included in temporarily restricted net assets and designated endowments and related gains which are included in unrestricted net assets. The University's endowments consist of 663 individual funds established for a variety of purposes, as well as the beneficial interest in 14 trusts managed by outside trustees to function as endowments. The endowments include both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board of Trustees to function as endowments. As required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), net assets associated with endowment funds, including funds designated by the Board of Trustees to function as endowments, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. 12

14 Interpretation of Relevant Laws The University interprets the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act of 2006 (UPMIFA) 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 University 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 University in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by UPMIFA. In accordance with UPMIFA, the University considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: (1) The duration and preservation of the fund (2) The purposes of the University 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 University (7) The investment policies of the University Funds with Deficiencies From time to time, the fair value of assets associated with individual donorrestricted endowment funds may fall below the level that the donor or UPMIFA requires the University to retain as a fund of perpetual duration. In accordance with GAAP, deficiencies of this nature that are reported in unrestricted net assets were $2,528 and $1,115 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These deficiencies resulted from unfavorable market fluctuations that occurred shortly after the investment of new permanently restricted contributions and continued appropriation for certain programs that was deemed prudent by the Board of Trustees. In accordance with the terms of donor gift instruments, the University is permitted to reduce the balance of several restricted endowments below the original amount of the gift. Subsequent investment gains are then used to restore the balance up to the fair value of the original amount of the gift. Subsequent gains above that amount are recorded to temporarily restricted net assets. Strategies Employed for Achieving Objectives Certain of the University's external investment managers are authorized to use specified derivative financial instruments in managing the assets under their control, subject to restrictions and limitations adopted by the Board of Trustees. From time to time, the managers may enter into forward currency contracts to hedge currency exchange risk on investments in foreign securities and other future contracts to adjust asset allocation for a more efficient portfolio. The managers settle these contracts on a net basis and, accordingly, the cash requirements are substantially less than the contract amounts. Changes in the fair value of the derivative contracts are included in investment income and are not significant in 2012 or Spending Policy and How the Investment Objectives Relate to Spending Policy The University's spending policy has two components. The first component uses the previous year's spending rate and adjusts it for inflation, which is defined as the previous calendar year's Consumer Price Index increase plus 1%. This component is 70% of the calculation. The second component uses the average endowment market value as of September 30 and December 31 of the preceding year and multiplies the result by a fixed percentage. This percentage was 5% for 2012 and 5.25% for The second component is the remaining 30% of the calculation. 13

15 In establishing this policy, the University considered the long-term expected return on its endowments. Accordingly, over the long term, the University expects the current spending policy to allow its endowments to grow at or near the inflation rate, as represented by the Consumer Price Index, before the effect of new gifts.

They are held and administered by external fiscal trust agents, with the income distributed to the University according to the terms of the gift instruments. Only the distributions from these funds are expendable. Investment return on beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others is as follows: Beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others: Distributions of income $ 23, % $ 23, % Increase (decrease) in fair value (23,723) (4.90) % 62, % Total investments return on beneficial interest in funds held in trust by others $ (598) (0.20) % $ 85, % Note 4 Fair Value Measurement The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, and others). Unobservable inputs (including the University's assumptions in determining the value of investments). The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement in its entirety determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability. Fair value measurements are categorized as Level 3 when a significant amount of price or other inputs that are considered to be unobservable are used in their valuations. 15

17 The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, 2 or 3 measurements for the year ended June 30, The following table presents the University's assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for each hierarchy level, including both current and noncurrent portions as of June 30: Fair Value Measurements Redemption Days' 2012 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 or Liquidation Notice Cash and cash equivalents $ 38,053 $ 38,053 $ - $ - Daily Daily Fixed income 93,578 93, Daily Daily Equities 164, , Daily Daily Mutual funds 76,909 76, Daily Daily Real estate 16, ,551 Illiquid Illiquid Private equities 134, ,974 Illiquid Illiquid Hedge funds: Equity long/short 122, ,400 - Daily/Monthly 10 to 120 Fixed income strategies 11, ,663 Subject to lockup 60 to 90 Multistrategy 78,571-78,571 - Monthly 90 Other 68, ,360 Daily/Monthly 10 to 120 Life income 5,834-5,834 - Life insurance 1,045-1,045 - Total investments $ 812,944 $ 373,526 $ 207,870 $ 231,548 Fair Value Measurements Redemption Days' 2011 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 or Liquidation Notice Cash and cash equivalents $ 52,370 $ 52,370 $ - $ - Daily Daily Fixed income 92,572 84,775 7,797 - Daily Daily Equities 214, , Daily Daily Mutual funds 56,489 56, Daily Daily Real estate 15, ,255 Illiquid Illiquid Private equities 121, ,334 Illiquid Illiquid Hedge funds: Equity long/short 119, ,183 - Daily/Monthly 10 to 120 Fixed income strategies 12, ,347 Subject to lockup 60 to 90 Multistrategy 77,316-77,316 - Monthly 90 Other 74, ,893 Daily/Monthly 10 to 120 Life income 5,029-5,029 - Life insurance 1,057-1,057 - Total investments $ 842,852 $ 408,641 $ 210,382 $ 223,829 The University's assets measured at fair value are reported in the consolidated statements of financial position as follows: Short term investments $ - $ 4,000 Deposits with bond trustee, current portion 2,272 10,576 Investments 333, ,555 Deposits with bond trustee 13,569 13,569 Beneficial interests in funds held in trust by others 463, ,152 $ 812,944 $ 842,852 16
