A person (other than an exempt person but including a person that has ceased to exist) that, directly or through a partnership of which it is a member, makes:
- a contribution to a non-resident trust, by a transfer or loan of property (except an arm's-length transfer); or
- an indirect contribution to a non-resident trust:
- by a transfer or loan of property (except an arm's-length transfer) as part of a series of transactions, where it is reasonable to consider that the transfer or loan relates to another transfer or loan of property (except an arm's-length transfer) made to the trust by another person or partnership, or
- by contracting an obligation to make a transfer or loan of property (except an arm's-length transfer), where it is reasonable to consider that the obligation relates to another transfer or loan (except an arm's-length transfer) made to the trust by another person or partnership.
