Article Specific Drafting Notes
1 The definitions set out in Schedule A can be moved to this Article 1 if the Parties so agree.
18.2 Two alternative arbitration provisions are presented in this template for consideration, one for onshore CIETAC Rules arbitration, one for offshore SIAC Rules arbitration in Singapore. There are many other possibilities for international arbitration, such as ICC Singapore, Hong Kong HKIAC and so forth, depending on what is acceptable to the parties in question. CIETAC arbitration typically is not preferred by foreign investors for resolution of non-trade disputes, but is routinely proposed by Chinese parties as their preferred choice of arbitration venue. The suggested CIETAC arbitration provisions set out in the template are designed to ameliorate many of the more significant concerns most foreign parties have in relation to CIETAC arbitration, in this context., You would still need , to consider whether the enforcement of any CIETAC award could be refused on the grounds set out in Article 260 of the Civil Procedure Law.
Neutral third-country arbitration is permitted and is the preferred option in most major cross-border contracts. Such international arbitration awards if made in a New York Convention member state are in principle enforceable in China under the New York Convention (to which China is a party), subject to matters on which China expressed a reservation when joining the New York Convention and/or grounds on which enforcement can be denied under the New York Convention itself, notably where enforcement would go against public policy. In addition to third-country arbitration in Singapore, international arbitration in Hong Kong (enforceable in China under separate rules) and (historically) Stockholm have been common for Sino-foreign joint venture contracts, and apart from CIETAC Rules arbitration, most arbitration provisions usually contemplate Singapore, Stockholm and Hong Kong as the place of arbitration. The appropriate arbitration provisions for other arbitration venues should be determined in accordance with the applicable laws and rules. Where cost is a major factor or the contract value is relatively small, or where multiple parties are involved, consider appointing only one arbitrator and revising the clause accordingly (care needs to be taken as having one arbitrator as opposed to three raises its own issues). Note that in order to satisfy the Chinese legal requirements for an arbitration agreement under the PRC Arbitration Law, three elements must be present:
(a) an intention to arbitrate (problems may arise in practice where you have split clauses which allow either court based proceedings or arbitration proceedings);
(b) the matters subject to arbitration; and
(c) a named arbitration institution (China does not generally recognise ad hoc, non-institutional arbitrations).
19.4 This clause is applicable only if this template is intended to be used as a standard form by the Supplier.
Annex 2 The Supplier's standard conditions of sale should be inserted here following modification to conform to local law and practice.
