14 Recent State aid cases: Apple and GDF Suez Robert Van der Jagt, Chairman, KPMG s EU Tax Centre
15 Case against Ireland regarding Apple On August 30, 2016, the European Commission announced its decision that Ireland granted State aid by providing tax opinions in 1991 and 2007 concerning the tax allocation of profits of the Irish branches of two Apple subsidiaries The State aid decision orders Ireland to calculate and recover additional taxes from Apple for the period June 2003 through September 2014 The EU Commission estimates the State aid to be Euro 13 billion plus interest The actual amount subject to recovery is to be calculated by Ireland in accordance with the European Commission's guidance Both Apple and the Irish government disagree and have announced to appeal the decision 15
16 Case against Luxembourg regarding GDF Suez On September 19, 2016, the European Commission announced that it has opened an investigation into Luxembourg's tax treatment of the GDF Suez group (now Engie). The Commission has concerns that several tax rulings issued by Luxembourg may have given GDF Suez an unfair advantage over other companies. Subject of the investigation is whether the treatment of the same financial transaction between companies of GDF Suez in an inconsistent way, both as debt and as equity, constitutes illegal State aid.

17 U.S. reactions to State aid investigations Manal S. Corwin, Principal and National Leader, International Tax, KPMG LLP (U.S.)
18 U.S. Treasury and Congressional reactions February 11, 2016 Letter from U.S. Treasury Secretary Lew to EC President Juncker expressing concerns about EC state aid investigations March 2, 2016 Letter from U.S Treasury to Senate Finance Committee Chairman Hatch regarding application of section 891 to EC s state aid investigations August 24, 2016 U.S. Treasury White Paper on EC s state aid investigations outlining Treasury s concerns with the EC s approach September 15, 2016 Notice dealing with the treatment of foreign initiated adjustments and referencing State Aid 18
19 U.S. Treasury letter to Hatch on Section 891 Treasury is considering, at Mr. Hatch s urging, whether as a result of the EC s state investigations U.S. corporations are being subject to discriminatory taxation in violation of I.R.C. section 891. I.R.C. 891 section provides: Whenever the President finds that, under the laws of any foreign country, citizens or corporations of the United States are being subjected to discriminatory or extraterritorial taxes, the President shall so proclaim and the rates of tax imposed by sections 1, 3, 11, 801, 831, 852, 871, and 881 shall, for the taxable year during which such proclamation is made and for each taxable year thereafter, be doubled in the case of each citizen and corporation of such foreign country. Similar concerns expressed by other members of Congress, e.g., Charles W. Boustany Jr. and Ron Wyden 19
20 U.S. Treasury White Paper on state aid The EC s approach is new and was unforeseeable by the relevant companies and EU Member States. Imposing retroactive recoveries under this new approach sets a bad precedent for tax policymakers around the world. The EC s approach undermines tax treaties, globally accepted transfer pricing principles, and the BEPS project. 20
21 Notice Provides that certain transactions aimed at separating earnings from taxes paid in a later year as a result of a foreign initiated adjustment will be treated as foreign tax credit splitter arrangements under I.R.C. section 909 Cites the EU state aid cases as an example of a situation in which a foreign-initiated adjustment may arise: The Treasury Department and the IRS are aware that, in anticipation of a large foreign-initiated adjustment that relates to a prior taxable year, a taxpayer may take steps to separate the additional payment of foreign income tax from the income to which it relates. Such foreign-initiated adjustments may arise under European Union (EU) State aid law, to the extent EU State aid payments result in creditable foreign taxes. 21
