We also maintain nonqualified supplemental retirement plans for certain employees and provide certain health care and life insurance benefits for qualifying retired employees (postretirement benefits) through various plans.
PNC reserves the right to terminate or make changes to these plans at any time.
The nonqualified pension plan is unfunded.
Contributions from PNC and, in the case of the postretirement benefit plans, participant contributions cover all benefits paid under the nonqualified pension plan and postretirement benefit plans.
The postretirement plan provides benefits to certain retirees that are at least actuarially equivalent to those provided by Medicare Part D and accordingly, we receive a federal subsidy as shown in Table 70.
In November of 2015, we established a voluntary employee beneficiary association (VEBA) to partially fund postretirement medical and life insurance benefit obligations.
We use a measurement date of December 31 for plan assets and benefit obligations.
A reconciliation of the changes in the projected benefit obligation for qualified pension, nonqualified pension and postretirement benefit plans as well as the change in plan assets for the qualified pension plan follows.
Table 70: Reconciliation of Changes in Projected Benefit Obligation and Change in Plan Assets
## Table 0 ##
A reconciliation between the statutory and effective tax rates follows: Table 93: Reconciliation of Statutory and Effective Tax Rates
## Table 1 ##
(a) Includes tax benefits associated with settlement of acquired entity tax contingencies.
The net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2016 and 2015 follow: Table 94: Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
## Table 2 ##
The majority of the tax credit carryforwards expire in 2032 and were insignificant at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
All federal and most state net operating loss and credit carryforwards are from acquired entities and utilization is subject to various statutory limitations.
We anticipate that we will be able to fully utilize our carryforwards for federal tax purposes, but we have recorded an insignificant valuation allowance against certain state tax carryforwards as of December 31, 2016.
If select uncertain tax positions were successfully challenged by a state, the state net operating losses listed in Table 94 could be reduced by an insignificant amount.
As of December 31, 2016, we had approximately $.1 billion of earnings attributed to foreign subsidiaries that have been indefinitely reinvested for which no incremental U. S.  income tax provision has been recorded.
Retained earnings included $.1 billion at both December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 in allocations for bad debt deductions of former thrift subsidiaries for which no income tax has been provided.
Under current law, if certain subsidiaries use these bad debt reserves for purposes other than to absorb bad debt losses, they will be subject to Federal income tax at the current corporate tax rate.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: Table 95: Change in Unrecognized Tax Benefits
## Table 3 ##
It is reasonably possible that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits could increase or decrease in the next twelve months due to completion of tax authorities’ exams or the expiration of statutes of limitations; however, the estimated amount is insignificant.
We are subject to U. S.  federal income tax as well as income tax in most states and some foreign jurisdictions.
Table 96 summarizes the status of significant IRS examinations of us.
Table 96: IRS Tax Examination Status
## Table 4 ##
In addition, we are under continuous examinations by various state taxing authorities.
With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to state and local and foreign income tax examinations by taxing authorities for periods before 2011.
For all open audits, any potential adjustments have been considered in establishing our unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2016.
Our policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with income taxes as income tax expense.
For 2016 and 2015, the amount of gross interest and penalties was insignificant.
At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the related amounts of accrued interest and penalties was also insignificant.
NOTE 20 COMMITMENTS In the normal course of business, we have various commitments outstanding, certain of which are not included on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The following table presents our outstanding commitments to extend credit along with significant other commitments as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
