| Pt II, Line 5 | CEs are monitored by LTLT's conservation easement monitoring staff at least annually with a report to LTLT and the landowner. Violations, monitoring and enforcement are covered in LTLT's Stewardship Policy Manual. |
| Pt II, Line 9 | Conservation easements purchased are expensed at cost. Conservation easements received by donation are not recorded in the organizations books. (See Schedule O for further information.) |
| Pt X, Line 2 | LTLT is exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, income from certain activities not related to the organization's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had less than $1,000 of income from unrelated business activities in the 2014 fiscal year and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The organization's Forms 990 for 2011, 2012 and 2013 are subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after being filed. |

| Pt VI, Line 11b | The 990 is initially reviewed by the Finance Manager and the Executive Director. It is then passed on to the Finance Committee for review and approval. Finally the 990 is sent to the full Board prior to filing. |
| Pt VI, Line 12c | Conflict of Interest policy was adopted on 8/8/08. All officers and employees complete a conflict of interest statement at the first board meeting of the new year and the statement is reviewed by the CAO. In addition, the ED monitors the business of the organization that could involve Board members or staff. |
| Pt VI, Line 15a | Currently, the ED makes well below the highly compensated threshold. In March 2010, compensation data was gathered for land trust job types. The Compensation Committee continues to use this data as a guide to determine salaries. |
| Pt VI, Line 18 | Forms 1023 and 990 are available upon request. The Form 990 is also available on the organization's website. |
| Pt VI, Line 19 | Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and audited financial statements are available upon request. |
| Pt XI | Net investment gains on Endowment held with the Community Foundation of Western NC amounted to $30,906. |
| Pt XII, Line 2c | The Audit Committee directly reviews the audit. |
| Other | Sch D, Ln 3&5 - Since U.S. GAAP does not provide specific guidance on the accounting treatment for conservation easements, land trust organizations in the U.S. use several different methods to account for the easements they hold. LTLT has adopted one such method which is widely used by other land trusts. Under this method, conservation easements are not recognized as assets. Accordingly, easements received by donation are not recorded in income and easements purchased by the organization are recorded as expenses. Management believes that this method results in financial statements that most accurately reflect the organization's financial activities. |
