Baker Family Foundation, Inc., EIN 87-4016147. This statement is submitted under the regulations governing requests for abatement of the penalty under IRC section 6652(c) and is made under penalties of perjury. 1. Why this return is being filed now. The foundation prepared its 2025 Form 990-PF and mailed it to the IRS Ogden Service Center in spring 2026, in the good-faith belief that a paper return was permitted. By Letter 2697C dated September 2, 2026, the IRS returned the paper return unprocessed because the Taxpayer First Act requires electronic filing, and stated that a complete return received within 10 days of the letter would avoid penalties. This electronically filed return is that resubmission, transmitted through an IRS-authorized e-file provider within the 10-day period. 2. Ordinary business care and prudence. The foundation is a small grant-making private foundation with no employees and one volunteer officer. It kept complete bank records, and this return has been reconciled to every monthly statement for the year. The foundation has no net investment income and no tax liability for 2025; the government has suffered no loss of revenue. The only defect in the original submission was the filing method. 3. Steps taken to prevent recurrence. The foundation now files electronically through an IRS-authorized provider, has changed its mailing address so IRS notices reach the officer directly, has calendared the May 15 due date, and intends to request an extension on Form 8868 in any year the return cannot be completed by the due date. The foundation respectfully requests that any penalty be abated for reasonable cause. Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this statement and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct, and complete. David M. Baker, President, Baker Family Foundation, Inc.
