Thermodynamics of plane-symmetric inhomogeneous cosmological models of perfect fluid distribution with electromagnetic field is studied. The source of magnetic field is due to an electric current produced along z-axis. F12 is the non-vanishing component of the electromagnetic field tensor. The free gravitational field is assumed to be Petrov type-II non-degenerate. We study the thermodynamical properties of plane-symmetric inhomogeneous universe. Some physical aspects of the models are discussed and the entropy distribution is given explicity.
