FORM 990 AND FORM 5471 - STATEMENT OF REASONABLE CAUSE	AAA FOUNDATION FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY EIN: 52-0794368 STATEMENT SUPPORTING REASONABLE CAUSE FOR FAILURE TO TIMELY FILE: FORM 5471, INFORMATION RETURN OF U.S. PERSONS WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN FOREIGN CORPORATIONS, AND FORM 8992, U.S. SHAREHOLDER CALCULATION OF GLOBAL INTANGIBLE LOW-TAXED INCOME (GILTI) STATEMENT OF REASONABLE CAUSE IRC SEC. 6038 UNDER TREAS. REG. SEC. 1.6038-2(K)(3) AAA FOUNDATION FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY (THE "TAXPAYER") REQUESTS RELIEF FROM THE PENALTIES IMPOSED BY INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (THE "IRC") SEC. 6038 FOR FAILURE TO FILE FORMS 5471, INFORMATION RETURN OF U.S. PERSONS WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN FOREIGN CORPORATIONS. SUCH FORMS WERE NOT ATTACHED TO THE TAXPAYER'S FORM 990, RETURN OF ORGANIZATION EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAX, FOR THE TAX YEAR ENDED ON DECEMBER 31, 2020, WHICH WERE ORIGINALLY DUE ON MAY 15, 2021, AND EXTENDED TO NOVEMBER 15, 2021. TREAS. REG. SEC. 1.6038-2(K)(3) PROVIDES FOR PENALTY ABATEMENT IF REASONABLE CAUSE EXISTS FOR FAILURE TO FURNISH THE INFORMATION REQUIRED UNDER IRC SEC. 6038 WITH REGARDS TO FAILURE TO FILE FORM 5471 AND FORM 8992. DELINQUENT INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURN SUBMISSION PROCEDURES ARE FOR TAXPAYERS WHO DO NOT NEED TO USE THE STREAMLINED FILING COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES TO FILE DELINQUENT INTERNATIONAL TAX RETURNS TO REPORT AND PAY ADDITIONAL TAX, BUT WHO HAVE IDENTIFIED THE NEED TO FILE DELINQUENT INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURNS WHO ARE NOT UNDER A CIVIL EXAMINATION OR A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ("IRS") AND HAVE NOT ALREADY BEEN CONTACTED BY THE IRS ABOUT THE DELINQUENT INFORMATION RETURNS. THE PROCEDURES ALLOW THE TAXPAYER TO FILE DELINQUENT INFORMATION RETURN WITH A STATEMENT OF ALL FACTS ESTABLISHING REASONABLE CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE TO FILE. THE TAXPAYER MEETS ALL THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE DELINQUENT FILING OF THE FORMS AND STATEMENTS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE FACTS SUPPORTING REASONABLE CAUSE FOR THE LATE FILING FOLLOW. FAILURE TO FILE FORMS 5471 AND 8992 THE TAXPAYER FAILED TO FILE FORMS 5471 WITH ITS 2020 RETURN TO REPORT ITS INTEREST IN DRAKE CAPITAL OFFSHORE PARTNERS II, L.P. THE TAXPAYER ALSO FAILED TO FILE FORM 8992 WITH ITS 2020 RETURN, DUE TO ITS FAILURE TO FILE THE ABOVE- MENTIONED FORM 5471, AS THE TAXPAYER HAS NO OTHER OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN WHICH THERE IS A FORM 5471 FILING OBLIGATION. THE TAXPAYER IS FILING AN AMENDED FORM 990, AND ATTACHING FORMS 5471 AND 8992, PURSUANT TO THE DELINQUENT INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURN SUBMISSION PROCEDURES FOR THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020. FACTS THE TAXPAYER IS AN IRC SEC. 501(C)(3) CORPORATION THAT CONDUCTS OR FUNDS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPS EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS TO ENHANCE TRAFFIC SAFETY. THE TAXPAYER HAS OPERATED SINCE 1947. ON JANUARY 1, 2015, THE TAXPAYER INVESTED IN DRAKE CAPITAL OFFSHORE PARTNERS II, L.P. (THE "FOREIGN CORPORATION") (EIN: XXX-XX-XXXX) AND OBTAINED AN OWNERSHIP INTEREST OF LESS THAN 10% OF THE VOTE OR VALUE. THE FOREIGN CORPORATION IS A CONTROLLED FOREIGN CORPORATION ("CFC"), AS DEFINED UNDER IRC SEC. 957. THIS INVESTMENT WAS NOT DEBT-FINANCED, WITHIN THE MEANING OF IRC SEC. 512. THIS ENTITY WAS ORGANIZED IN THE CAYMAN ISLANDS AND ELECTED TO BE TREATED AS A CORPORATION FOR U.S. TAX PURPOSES. ON JANUARY 1, 2020, THE TAXPAYER'S INTEREST IN THE FOREIGN CORPORATION WAS 9.49%. ON DECEMBER 31, 2020, THE FOREIGN CORPORATION REDEEMED THE SHARES OF FOUR INVESTORS FOR $3.1 MILLION USD. AS A RESULT, THE TAXPAYER'S OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN THE FOREIGN CORPORATION INCREASED AND EXCEEDED 10% MAKING THE TAXPAYER BECOME A US SHAREHOLDER IN THE CFC, AS DEFINED IN IRC SEC. 958. THE TAXPAYER DID NOT TAKE ANY ACTION OR ACQUIRE ANY ADDITIONAL SHARES IN THE PROCESS OF INCREASING ITS OWNERSHIP INTEREST. ADDITIONALLY, THE TAXPAYER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THIS CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP PRIOR TO THE EXTENDED 2020 TAX FILING DEADLINE OF NOVEMBER 15, 2021. THE TAXPAYER WAS INFORMED OF ITS INCREASE IN PERCENTAGE OF OWNERSHIP IN FEBRUARY OF 2022. THE TAXPAYER'S INTERNAL FINANCE TEAM DO NOT HAVE PRIOR EXPERIENCE, OR THE NECESSARY EXPERTISE REQUIRED TO UNDERSTAND AND PREPARE US INTERNATIONAL TAX FILINGS. DUE TO A LATE NOTIFICATION OF THIS CHANGE, THE TAXPAYER FAILED TO FILE A FORM 5471 WITH RESPECT TO ITS INTEREST IN THE FOREIGN CORPORATION AS A CATEGORY 3 AND 5A FILER. ADDITIONALLY, AS A US SHAREHOLDER OF A CFC, THE TAXPAYER WAS ALSO REQUIRED TO FILE A FORM 8992, WHICH WAS NOT ATTACHED TO ITS RETURN. AS NOTED ABOVE, THE TAXPAYER'S INVESTMENT IN THE CFC WAS NOT DEBT-FINANCED, THUS THERE WAS NO UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME GENERATED BY THE CFC (EITHER AS SUBPART F INCOME OR IRC SEC. 951A GLOBAL INTANGIBLE LOW TAXED INCOME INCLUSIONS). THEREFORE, THE FAILURE TO FILE THE REQUIRED FORMS 5471 AND 8992 DID NOT RESULT IN A FAILURE TO INCLUDE INCOME OR PAY TAX ON INCOME GENERATED BY THE FOREIGN CORPORATION. ONCE THE TAXPAYER BECAME AWARE OF THE FAILURE TO FILE, IN CONJUNCTION WITH RSM US LLP AS THEIR TAX ADVISORS, DETERMINED THE CORRECT COURSE OF ACTION. THE TAXPAYER IMMEDIATELY AUTHORIZED RSM TO PREPARE ALL REQUIRED INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURNS AND SUBMIT TO THE IRS UNDER THE DELINQUENT INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURN SUBMISSION PROCEDURES. THE TAXPAYER ACTED PRUDENTLY UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND EXERCISED REASONABLE CARE WHEN THEY LEARNED THEY FAILED TO FILE THE MISSING FORMS 5471 AN 8992. THE TAXPAYER TAKES ITS TAX FILING OBLIGATIONS SERIOUSLY. THE CORRECTIVE ACTION WAS TAKEN BY THE TAXPAYER WITHOUT ANY PROMPTING FROM THE IRS AND AS SOON AS THE TAXPAYER LEARNED ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURN FILING RESPONSIBILITIES. SUCH CORRECTIVE ACTION INCLUDED CONTACTING THE IRS ON ITS OWN INITIATIVE, AND PROMPTLY FILING FORM 990 FOR THE 2020 TAX YEAR TO PROPERLY REPORT THE FORMS 5471 AND 8992. THESE MEASURES DEMONSTRATE AN OUTSTANDING EFFORT TO COMPLY AND TO ACT WITH REASONABLE BUSINESS CARE. ADDITIONALLY, THEY FURTHER DEMONSTRATE THAT THE TAXPAYER'S ACTIONS ARE NOT INDICATIVE OF WILLFUL NEGLECT. AS SUCH, TAXPAYER HAS SHOWN REASONABLE CAUSE FOR NOT TIMELY FILING FORMS 5471 AND 8992 PURSUANT TO TREAS. REG. SEC. 1.6038-2(K)(3). REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF PENALTY WE HEREBY RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT THE IRS NOT IMPOSE ANY PENALTIES FOR THE DELINQUENT FILING OF THE FORMS 5471 AND 8992 FOR THE TAX YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020. THE WAIVER OF PENALTIES IS CONSISTENT WITH THE IRS' POLICY FOR ADMINISTERING PENALTIES IMPOSABLE UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. IRM 20.1.1.2.1. STATES THAT "PENALTIES EXIST TO ENCOURAGE VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE BY SUPPORTING STANDARDS OF BEHAVIOR REQUIRED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE." HERE IT IS EVIDENT THAT THE TAXPAYER TAKES ITS RESPONSIBILITIES SERIOUSLY AND HAS TAKEN AFFIRMATIVE STEPS TO MEET THEIR FILING RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THE IRC. WE BELIEVE THAT IMPOSITION OF ANY PENALTIES WOULD BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE IRS' POLICY FOR ENCOURAGING VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE. THEREFORE, CONSIDERING ALL THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES, THE TAXPAYER'S FAILURE TO TIMELY FILE FORMS 5471 AND 8992 FOR THE 2020 TAX YEAR WAS DUE TO REASONABLE CAUSE AND NOT WILLFUL NEGLECT. THE TAXPAYER IS NOT UNDER CIVIL EXAMINATION OR CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION BY THE IRS AND HAS NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY THE IRS ABOUT DELINQUENT INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION RETURNS. UNDER PENALTIES OF PERJURY, I AFFIRM THAT THE INFORMATION PROVIDED ABOVE IS TRUE, CORRECT, AND COMPLETE TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEF. _________________________________________________ AAA FOUNDATION FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY
