On November 2023, our Director of Finance, who was responsible for overseeing the preparation and submission of our tax returns, unexpectedly resigned and moved to another city. This sudden departure left us without a key individual who had intimate knowledge of our financial records and processes. The resignation of our Director of Finance and the loss of critical financial documents created significant challenges in compiling the necessary information for our tax return. Despite our best efforts to locate the missing records and appoint a new Director of Finance, these unforeseen events caused unavoidable delays. The absence of these records made it impossible to accurately complete our tax return by the due date. Upon realizing the gravity of the situation, we took immediate steps to mitigate the delay. We initiated a thorough search for the missing documents and working in the reconstructing our financial records. Despite these efforts, the complexity of the situation and the time required to accurately reconstruct our financial data resulted in the late filing of our tax return. We would like to emphasize that this is the first time GENTE DE VENEZUELA has failed to file our tax return on time. We have consistently complied with all IRS requirements in the past. Given our history of compliance, we respectfully request consideration for the First-Time Abate (FTA) program or any other administrative waiver for the penalties associated with this late filing. We deeply regret any inconvenience this delay may have caused and assure you that we have implemented measures to prevent such occurrences in the future. We respectfully request that the IRS consider these extraordinary circumstances and grant relief from any penalties associated with the late filing. Thank you for your understanding and consideration. Sincerely, JOSE MORENO-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.
