AND SUBSIDIARY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS REQUIRED FOR AUDITS IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS AND OMB CIRCULAR A-133 DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013 Proactive CPA and Consulting Firm To the Board of Directors The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Cambridge, Massachusetts INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary (collectively referred to as the “Organization”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of activities, functional expenses, 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 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of 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 auditors' 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 auditors consider internal control relevant to the Organization'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 Organization’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. Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Page 2 Other Matter Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The accompanying consolidated schedule of expenditures of federal awards, as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements or to the consolidated financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated financial statements as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated October 27, 2015, on our consideration of the Organization's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements and other matters.

Organization Policies: and Significant Accounting Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements of The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary (collectively referred to as the “Organization”) include the accounts of The Tor Project, Inc. (referred to as “Tor”) and Tor Solution Corporation (the “Corporation” or the “Subsidiary”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Nature of Organization: Tor is a nonprofit organization dedicated to allowing individuals and groups to protect their internet traffic from analysis. Tor provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow for the sharing of information over public networks without compromising privacy. The Subsidiary is a Massachusetts corporation incorporated on June 24, 2011, on which date Tor became the sole member. In addition, the Subsidiary was established to design, develop, publish, and reproduce computer software or the equivalent for any mode of electronic or internet-based communications. Method of Accounting: The consolidated financial statements of the Organization have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting procedures generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Classification and Reporting of Net Assets: The Organization is required to report information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets; temporarily restricted net assets; and permanently restricted net assets. A description of the three net asset classes follows: • • The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Unrestricted net assets represents the portion of net assets of the Organization that is neither permanently restricted nor temporarily restricted by donor-imposed stipulations. Unrestricted net assets include expendable funds available for support of the Organization’s operations and investments in property and equipment. Temporarily restricted net assets result from contributions and other inflows of assets whose use is limited by donor-imposed stipulations that either expire by the passage of time or can be fulfilled and released by actions of the Organization pursuant to those stipulations. • Permanently restricted net assets represent contributions and other inflows of assets whose use by the Organization is limited by donorimposed stipulations that neither expire by passage of time nor can be fulfilled or otherwise removed by actions of the Organization. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Organization does not have any permanently restricted net assets. Fair Value: The framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows: Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Organization has the ability to access. Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include: • Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; • Inputs other than quoted prices that observable for the asset or liability; and • Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. are If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. 7 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) 1. Organization and Significant Policies (Continued): Accounting Cash and Equivalents: The Organization maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Organization has not experienced any losses in such accounts and therefore believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on cash and equivalents. The Organization has a cash management program, which provides for the investment of excess cash balances primarily in money market funds, which are valued using Level 1 inputs. The Organization considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Concentration of Credit Risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Organization to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and grants and contracts receivable. The Organization maintains its cash and cash equivalents with highcredit quality financial institutions. Grants and contracts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. There was no allowance for doubtful receivables as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. Property and Equipment: Property and equipment, which consists of computer equipment, are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets of three years. Revenue Recognition: Revenues and other support are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets unless the use is limited by donor-imposed restrictions. Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets. Grant and contract revenues are recognized upon the performance of reimbursable activities when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the services has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collectability is probable. Deferred Revenue: Deferred revenue results from revenues received for services that have not yet been performed by the Organization. Contributions: Contributions received are recorded as unrestricted, temporarily restricted, or permanently restricted support depending on the existence or nature of any donor imposed restrictions. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Contributions received with donor-imposed restrictions that are met in the same year as recognized are reported as revenues of the unrestricted net asset class. Contributions received with donor-imposed restrictions that are met subsequent to the year in which they are received are reported as revenues of the temporarily restricted net asset class when they are recognized. A reclassification to unrestricted net assets is made to reflect the expiration of such restrictions in the year the restriction is met. Contributions of services are reported as revenue and expenses of the unrestricted net asset class at the fair value of the services received only if the services create or enhance a nonfinancial asset or would typically need to be purchased by the Organization if they had not been provided by contribution, require specialized skills, and are provided by individuals with those skills. Contributions of goods and space to be used in program operations are reported as revenue and expenses of the unrestricted net asset class at the time the goods or space is received. Advertising: The Organization expenses advertising costs as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, advertising expense amounted to $26,261 and $12,522. Income Taxes: The Organization is a nonprofit corporation as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is exempt from federal and state income taxes. The Subsidiary is a disregarded entity for tax purposes. As a result, no provision for income taxes is presented in these consolidated financial statements. However, in certain circumstances, the Organization may be subject to federal and state income taxes for profits generated from unrelated trade or business income. The Organization has determined that it does not have any liabilities associated with unrelated trade or business income. The Organization assesses the recording of uncertain tax positions by evaluating the minimum recognition threshold and measurement requirements a tax position must meet before being recognized as a benefit in the consolidated financial statements. The Organization’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense, if any, in its consolidated statements of activities. 8 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) 1. Organization and Significant Policies (Continued): Accounting The Organization has not recognized any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or unrecognized benefits as of December 31, 2014 or 2013. The Organization does not expect any material change in uncertain tax benefits within the next twelve months. The Organization is currently not under examination by any taxing authorities and is generally open to examination for three years from the date of filing. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary and a corresponding liability in the amounts of $49,718 and $51,973, as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. No fees are charged by Tor for these services. 3. Property and Equipment: Property and equipment as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 consists of the following: 2014 Computer Equipment Uses of Estimates: Management has used estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in its preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Actual results experienced by the Organization may differ from those estimates. Subsequent Events: Management has evaluated subsequent events spanning the period from December 31, 2014 through October 27, 2015, the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. 2. Assets Whose Use is Limited: Tor, along with other sponsors, acts as an agent on behalf of the Privacy Enhancing Technology Symposium (the “Conference”) by performing administrative functions, including custody of the Conference’s operating cash account and performance of the cash receipts and cash disbursements functions. Funds held for the Conference are segregated from the general assets of Tor and are shown on the consolidated statements of financial position as an asset $ Less: Accumulated Depreciation 24,004 2013 $ 24,004 $ - 24,004 22,879 $ 1,125 Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $1,125 and $5,127, respectively. 4. Concentrations: The Organization received approximately 75% and 90% of its grants and contribution revenues from two and three federal grants during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, approximately 91% and 89% of grants and contracts receivable, respectively, were due from four and three of the federal grants, respectively. The Organization received approximately 100% and 94% of its contract revenue from two customers for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. 9 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) 5. 8. Donated Services: Tor receives donated services in various aspects of its operations and programs. The fair value of services as determined by the donor or by management for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Software Development Website Hosting Language Translation 6. 2014 2013 $ 222,000 141,000 64,000 $ 210,000 127,500 50,000 $ 427,000 $ 387,500 Temporarily Restricted Net Assets: Net Assets Released from Restriction: Net assets were released from donor restrictions by incurring expenses satisfying the restricted purposes, by occurrence of other events specified by donors or by the passage of time. Net assets released from restriction during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 consist of the following: 2014 Purpose Restricted: Security Toolkit for Journalists OONI Project Protection of Internet Traffic $ Purpose and Time Restricted: Security Toolkit for Journalists $ - 2013 $ 132,161 20,000 10,000 10,000 152,161 - 120,000 10,000 Operating Leases: Effective September 2013, the Organization was a party to an operating lease agreement for office space in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which expires on August 31, 2018. The lease agreement requires monthly rental payments of $1,400. The operating lease was amended in December 2014 to include additional office space. The lease agreement amendment requires additional monthly payments of $325 through November 30, 2015. Future minimum lease payments due under this noncancelable lease agreement as of December 31, 2014 are as follows: Year Ended There were no temporarily restricted net assets as of December 31, 2014. Temporarily restricted net assets as of December 31, 2013 include unexpended contributions and grants temporarily restricted by donors and amounted to $10,000 restricted for the purpose of protection of internet traffic. 7. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary December 31, 2015 2016 2017 2018 20,525 17,374 17,808 12,068 $ 67,775 Rent expense incurred by the Organization under these lease agreements amounted to $18,229 and $14,201 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. 9. Retirement and Fringe Benefits: The Organization sponsors an IRC Section 408(p), SIMPLE IRA Plan (the "Plan") for all employees, which allows participants to defer a portion of their salaries into an investment plan of the participant’s choosing. Once the employee has established an account with a financial institution the Organization makes a contribution to the Plan each month equal to 2% of the employee’s gross salary. Total expenses related to this plan amounted to $5,700 and $5,670 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. $ 272,161 10 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary 10. Indemnifications: 11. Commitments and Contingencies: In the ordinary course of business, the Organization enters into various agreements containing standard indemnification provisions. The Organization indemnification obligations under such provisions are typically in effect from the date of execution of the applicable agreement through the end of the applicable statute of limitations. The aggregate maximum potential future liability of the Organization under such indemnification provisions is uncertain. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, no amounts have been accrued related to such indemnification provisions. Subsequent to December 31, 2014 the Organization finalized an early contract termination with a vendor under which the remaining contract value would be paid. As termination discussions were in-process prior to year-end, the liability of $32,500 has been included in accrued expenses on the Organization's accompanying consolidated statements financial position. Additionally, subsequent to December 31, 2014, the Organization entered into a severance agreement with a former employee. The associated liability of $37,500 has not been recorded on the Organization's accompanying consolidated statements of financial position and will be recognized as a period expense in the 2015 fiscal year. 11 Consolidated Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary For the Year Ended December 31 Federal Grantor/Pass-Through Grantor/ Program or Cluster Title 2014 Federal CFDA Number Pass -Through Entity Identifying Number 19.345 N/A 19.345 F5047-TOR-00 Federal Expenditures Major Program: U.S. Department of State Direct International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor Pass-Through Internews Network International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor $ 635,122 (23,504) Total Major Program 611,618 Non-Major Programs: Research and Development Cluster National Science Foundation Direct Computer and Information Science and Engineering Pass-Through Regents of the University of Minnesota Computer and Information Science and Engineering 47.070 N/A 89,084 47.070 A003482101 22,085 Total Research and Development Cluster 111,169 Total Non-Major Programs 111,169 Total Expenditures of Federal Awards $ 722,787 Notes to the Consolidated Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Note 1 – Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated schedule of expenditures of federal awards includes the federal grant activity of The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary (“the Organization”), and is presented on the accrual basis of accounting.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the consolidated financial statements, we considered the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s consolidated financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. However, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs, we identified a certain deficiency in internal control that we consider to be a material weakness, listed as item 2014-001 and a significant deficiency, listed as item 2014-002. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Page 2 Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Organization’s consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of consolidated financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2014-001 and 2014-002. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary’s Response to Findings The Organization’s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The Organization’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Organization’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. Moody Famiglietti & Andronico, LLP Tewksbury, Massachusetts October 27, 2015 To the Board of Directors The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Cambridge, Massachusetts Report on Compliance For Each Major Federal Program and Report on Internal Control Over Compliance Required by OMB Circular A-133 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program We have audited The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary’s (collectively referred to as the “Organization”) compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that could have direct and material effect on each of the Organization’s major federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Organization’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Management’s Responsibility Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its federal programs. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the Organization’s major federal programs based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Organization’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the Organization’s compliance. Basis for Qualified Opinion on CFDA 19.345 International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor As described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs, the Organization did not comply with requirements regarding CFDA 19.345 International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor as described in finding number 2014-001 for Allowable Costs. Compliance with such requirements is necessary, in our opinion, for the Organization to comply with the requirements applicable to that program. The Tor Project Inc. and Subsidiary Page 2 Qualified Opinion on CFDA 19.345 International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor In our opinion, except for the noncompliance described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the Organization complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on 19.345 International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor for the year ended December 31, 2014. Other Matters The Organization’s response to the noncompliance findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The Organization’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response. Report on Internal Control over Compliance Management of the Organization is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered the Organization’s internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major federal program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over compliance. A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. However, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs, we identified a certain deficiency in internal control that we consider to be a material weakness, listed as item 2014-001 and a significant deficiency, listed as item 2014-002. The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary Page 3 Other Matters The Organization’s response to the internal control over compliance findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The Organization’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response. The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of OMB Circular A-133. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Findings Related to the Consolidated Financial Statement Audit as Required to be Reported in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards: A. Significant Deficiencies or Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 2014-001 – Allowable Costs Criteria: Program costs should only be invoiced and drawn down up to the allowable amounts per the budget established in the grant agreement. Condition: During 2014, the Organization’s allocation of other direct costs to the program exceeded the total budget allowed in the grant agreement by approximately $70,000. Context: During review of the Organization’s program expense for the program tested it was discovered that the cumulative billed expenses for the other direct expense budget line item had exceeded the budget by approximately $70,000, however the total program expenses in the program budget have not been exceeded. Questioned Costs: Questioned costs included approximately $70,000 of direct costs billed in excess of amounts allowed. Effect: The billing of the direct expenses in excess of amounts budgeted has caused the Organization to draw down federal funds in excess of allowable expenses incurred. This advancement of federal funds has not been maintained in accordance with federal cash management criteria. The effect of this error is material to the consolidated financial statements and to the compliance with federal programs under OMB A-133. Cause: The additional expenses included in the other direct expense line were a direct result of increased time and effort during 2014 on the federal program tested. This resulted in the Organization’s allocation methodology to apply more overhead to the grant program, however the grant program’s budgeted allocation is significantly lower. The Organization did not review the individual budget line items before submitting invoices and drawing down federal funds. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization implement a policy to review budget to actual expenses, by federal grant program, on an individual budget line item basis, in order to determine whether funds can be invoiced and drawn down. This will ensure that the Organization is submitting expenses which are in line with the grant program budget and ensure that billings do not exceed allowable costs. Additionally, the Organization may consider requesting an amendment to the award to reallocate resources to different line items. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management currently has a system of controls to ensure that total billings on federal contracts are reviewed against total budgets to prevent overbilling. To address the risk of overbilling against individual budget line items, Management is in the process of extending these controls to ensure that reviews of spending to budget are routinely made on a line item basis. In addition, Management is instituting a process of project forecasting to identify likely future lineitem overruns, and to ensure that timely budget re-allocation requests can be made where appropriate to prevent these overruns from occuring. In the case of the condition noted, subsequent to year-end, an amendment to the award was requested and was granted such that the direct costs identified above now comply with federal program compliance criteria. 20 Consolidated Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs (Continued) The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary II. Findings Related to the Consolidated Financial Statement Audit as Required to be Reported in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards (Continued): A. Significant Deficiencies or Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (Continued) 2014-002 – Classification of Direct Costs Criteria: Direct costs should be charged to the appropriate federal programs. Condition: One instance was noted whereby a direct cost was erroneously charged to an incorrect federal program. Questioned Cost: None noted in excess of reportable amount of $10,000. Context: The invoice supporting the direct costs reflected detailed tasks completed for a different federal program. Cause: An invoice for another federal program was erroneously charged to this federal program, resulting in the incorrect amount of expense being charged to this federal program. Recommendation: The Organization should implement a review process, specifically for federal programs which requires detailed expense reports to be attached and reviewed, in order to ensure that the proper expenses are being billed to the correct federal program. This review process will ensure that the Executive Director is aware of funds being requested and whether the amounts requested are charged to the correct program and reasonable. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management currently has controls in place to ensure that proper expenses are charged to correct programs. Management agrees with the recommendation, and will take steps to periodically review detailed expense reports and associated invoices that are directly charged to federal programs to ensure that funds being requested are reasonable and are charged to the correct program.

Findings Related to the Consolidated Financial Statement Audit as Required to be Reported in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards: A. Significant Deficiencies or Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 2013-001 – Cost Allocations Criteria: Indirect cost allocation methods should be uniformly and consistently implemented to all programs. Condition: During 2013, the spreadsheet used to allocate employee time across various programs contained an error. The under and overstatement of three employees’ time for various grant programs resulted in a misallocation of employee time and, subsequently, indirect costs. The misallocation, while not material, was not discovered by the Organization’s internal controls. Context: We tested the accuracy of the employees’ annual time sheet inputs on the Allocation by Program spreadsheet by selecting a sample of employees and viewing each employee’s monthly time card. It was discovered during this review that three employees had time improperly entered into the Allocation by Program spreadsheet, which caused the employees’ time on an annual basis to be over or under reported. Effect: The Allocation by Program spreadsheet allocates employee salaries and indirect costs based upon the ratio of time spent on each program to annual time work each employee. The date entry errors for the three employees’ time on the spreadsheet resulted in improper salary and, subsequently, indirect cost allocation calculations. The effect of this error was not material to the consolidated financial statements or to compliance with Federal Programs under OMB A-133. Cause: The input errors were a result of not receiving monthly employee time sheets timely. This delay caused either the employee’s time sheet to never be entered into the Allocation by Program spreadsheet or the improper amount time was entered. These errors were not discovered, as there is no detailed review process for the Allocation by Program spreadsheet. Recommendation: We recommend that monthly employee time cards be received as close to month end as possible to avoid missed entry. Additionally, we recommend that a detailed review process be implemented to ensure that the manual inputs into the spreadsheet are appropriate. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management has a system of controls whereby detailed reviews of total dollars and percentages allocated to federal programs are performed. As no material amounts were misallocated as a result of the input error, the current system of controls did not identify the input error. In order to prevent input errors that serve to generate these allocations, management will institute a second level of detailed review. The detailed review will include agreeing all manual spreadsheet inputs to source documentation. The Organization has contracted a second accounting staff person to assist in this review function. Resolution: No findings were noted in 2014 compliance testing procedures relative to this finding. 22 Consolidated Schedule of Prior Year Findings and Questioned Costs (Continued) The Tor Project, Inc. and Subsidiary I. Findings Related to the Consolidated Financial Statement Audit as Required to be Reported in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards (Continued): 2013-002 – Classification of Direct Costs Federal Program 19.345 International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor Criteria: Direct costs should be charged to the appropriate federal programs. Condition: During 2013, an instance was noted where a direct cost was allocated to this federal program incorrectly. Context: During the audit it was noted that the invoice supporting the direct costs reflected detailed tasks completed for a different federal program. The incorrect posting of this direct cost did not result in an overbilling as the funding is based on certain milestones, which were completed by the Organization prior to billing. Cause: An invoice for another federal program was erroneously charged to this federal program, resulting in the incorrect amount of expense being charged to this federal program. Recommendation: The Organization should implement a review process, especially for federal programs which requires detailed expense reports to be attached and reviewed, in order to ensure that the proper expenses are being billed to the correct federal program. This review process will ensure that the Executive Director is aware of funds being requested and whether the amounts requested are reasonable. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management has a system of controls that allocates milestone based contracts to the same cost center as there is no cost reimbursement requirement. Both invoices included in this misidentification noted in this finding were recorded in the same cost center, as a result the misidentification was not corrected by management in a timely manner. Management will perform a detailed review of all invoice directly allocated to a particular federal program to ensure that it has been properly identified in our books and records. Resolution: There was an additional finding noted during 2014. See 2014-002 in Part II, A of the consolidated schedule of findings and questioned costs. B. Compliance Findings None II.
