Part X, Line 2: Under ASC 740-10 an organization must recognize the tax benefit associated with tax positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained. WWF does not believe there are any material uncertain tax positions and accordingly it will not recognize any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. WWF has filed for and received income tax exemptions in the jurisdictions where it is required to do so. Additionally, WWF has filed IRS Form 990 and Form 990-T tax returns as required and all other applicable returns in those jurisdictions where it is required. WWF believes that it is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2015. For the year ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were no interest or penalties recorded or included in the consolidated statements of activities related to uncertain tax positions.

990, SCHEDULE F, PART I, line 1: PROCEDURES FOR MONITORING GRANT FUNDS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES: All grant agreement documents have payment provisions and terms and conditions for use of funds. Payments are made in incremental amounts for grants above $25,000 based on the cash flow needs and progress of the recipient. After the initial payment, all subsequent payments are made after receipt, review, and acceptance of signed financial and technical reports from the grantees. Final payments are made upon receipt and acceptance of final deliverables. All agreements, receipt of deliverables, and payments are tracked using a database designed for tracking of grants. All payments are documented in the accounting system. Grantee can only receive more funding than was in the original agreement budget through the issuance of an amendment document. For all government funded agreements, an expanded financial report is required from the Grantees. This includes monitoring adherence to donor requirements with emphasis on adherence to procurement requirements; use of equipment, timesheets, and separate bank accounts if required. For high risk grantees, additional monitoring requirements are employed as applicable, such as copies of general ledgers, receipts, bank reconciliations, and site visits. Grantees receiving more than $100,000 are required to submit an annual (outside) audit. Grantees receiving government funding are subject to additional donor requirements, including project audits or expense verifications. If Grantees are subject to an OMB A-133 audit, WWF seeks confirmation of an unqualified audit opinion. If there are findings, a corrective action plan is developed in collaboration with the Grantee and monitored for improvement; documentation is required as needed.

Part I, line 3: Compensation is based on performance and is determined by committee of the Board in consultation with an independent and highly-experienced outside compensation expert. The independent compensation expert advises the Committee on what is reasonable compensation for the demands of the role, based on exhaustive analysis of compensation at organizations of similar size, scope and reach. WWF makes compensation determinations within these guideposts. Part I, line 4b: Supplemental Non-qualified retirement plan: WWF has both 457(b) and 457(f) supplemental nonqualified retirement plans. The 457(b) plan is open to participation by employees at the level of Vice President and above. Amounts contributed by the organization are included in Part II, Column C. The 457(f) plan, which is specifically designed and authorized for nonprofits and governments to retain executive talent, was adopted by WWF in 2013. As with other organizations that have established such deferred compensation plans, the goal is a vehicle to ensure retention, at critical moments, of key leaders who would be difficult, if not impossible, to replace. Amounts deferred under this plan are subject to vesting periods established by terms of awards. Payments of 457(f) benefits are contingent on completion of future services and are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture. Deferral amounts are fixed and not contingent on organizational net earnings or other financial performance metrics. Earnings are allocated to deferrals with reference to the annual return percentage (positive or negative) of WWFs Board Designated Reserves investment portfolio for the prior fiscal year. In calendar year 2017, deferrals were made to bookkeeping accounts for M. Marsh (90,000, plus accrued interest of 40,210 on earlier deferrals reflected in Part II, Column (C)); C. Roberts (77,331 accrued interest on earlier deferrals); and J. Clay (38,665 accrued interest on earlier deferrals.) Accounts vested and paid out (589,456 to C. Roberts, and 294,728 to J. Clay) are shown in Part II, Column (B)(iii) and reported as taxable income on the employees W-2 for 2017. As reflected in Part II Column (F), 87% of the amounts that were paid out in calendar 2017 were previously reported as deferred compensation on prior Form 990 tax filings. WWF also has a 403(b) qualified retirement plan for all employees, with a 3% match at one year of employment and a 6% contribution at 2 years of employment, with immediate vesting of all employer match and contribution payments. In addition to his responsibilities as President and Chief Executive Officer, Carter Roberts served as Acting Chief Conservation Officer in calendar years 2015, 2016 and 2017.

FORM 990, FY18 Results, Part III In 2018, WWF made valuable strides in addressing the conservation challenges of the planet. Among many achievements, we note these: Global Coalition to End Wildlife Trafficking Online. A major e-commerce company brought down more than 50,000 thousand advertisements for illegal wildlife products on its site, bringing Ebays two-year total to more than 100,000 ads. The companys actions stem from a partnership of more than 30 leading e-commerce, technology and social media companies and WWF, TRAFFIC, and the International Fund for Animal Welfare. In launching the Global Coalition to End Wildlife Trafficking Online, the partners committed to implement algorithms to detect the sale of illegal wildlife products and train staff to spot illegal trading. The Coalition set a goal to reduce wildlife trafficking across platforms by 80% by 2020, drastically shrinking an online marketplace that allows criminals to sell illegally obtained wildlife products such as elephant ivory and pangolin scales across the globe.

A five-million-acre network of parks and wildlife corridors in the heart of the Himalayas will permanently protect vast intact forests and essential wildlife habitat for tigers, snow leopards and other rare and endangered animals. The system of mountain forests and rivers represents 50% of Bhutans territory and is the essential freshwater source for local communities adapting to climate change. The Bhutan for Life project, a collaboration between WWF and the Royal Government of Bhutan, produced a fourteen-year conservation plan and mobilized $43.1, including $26 million from WWFs first-ever Green Climate Fund grant. Bhutan for Life is the first Project Finance for Permanence initiative in Asia, and one of only a handful in the world. Water Reserves in Mexico. Mexico protected 55% of the countrys surface water throughsigned a series of landmark decrees establishing water reserves in nearly 300 river basins. The decrees, signed by Mexicos then President, Enrique Pea Nieto, will guarantee water supplies for the next 50 years for 45 million people, as well as some of the countrys most biodiverse ecosystems and globally important wetland protected areas. The water reserve system sprang from a years-long scientific process led by WWF and Mexicos National Water Commission, that mapped the countrys rivers and quantified the amount of water required to sustain the flora and fauna of each basin and fulfil the demands of growing human populations. We Are Still In. The voices of Americans embracing solutions to the climate challenge continues to grow through efforts like the We Are Still In (WASI) coalition. Nearly 2,000 additional mayors, county executives, governors, tribal leaders, college and university leaders, businesses, faith groups, and investors investors joined WASI, bringing the total number of institutions reaffirming their commitment to climate action in support of the Paris Agreement to more than 3,000. Partnership with Apple. A five-year partnership between WWF and Apple to reduce its environmental footprint by producing paper products from responsibly managed forests leads to 320,000 acres of forest land in China receiving Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification-20,000 acres above the projects stated goal. WWF helped the companies who own the land create forest management plans and train their employees how to identify forest land that has high conservation values, both of which are necessary for FSC certification. Apple also announced that yearly production from its forest conservation projects, including this one, is now greater than the amount of virgin fiber used in its product packaging during fiscal year 2016. 1250 24 LLC 1250 24TH ST NW Washington DC 20037 814591595 REAL ESTATE DC 984434 2305718 WWF 1250 24 STREET LLC 1250 24TH ST NW WASHINGTON DC 20037 821723387 Real Estate DC 5357150 4044551 WWF
