This webinar will provide 1.0 CLE credit hour.

As regulatory regimes shift and global business conditions become more volatile, companies and their counsel face increasingly complex questions: 

• How should sanctions and export-control risks be addressed in commercial agreements? 
• When does legal compliance excuse performance — and when might it create exposure for breach?
• What do force majeure, hardship, frustration and change-in-circumstances clauses actually accomplish when invoked?
• How do these arguments fare when the dispute proceeds to international arbitration?

During this program, our panelists will examine these issues from both the front end and the back end of the deal. The discussion will address practical drafting considerations for sanctions and export-control clauses, compare how common-law and civil-law regimes treat force majeure and related doctrines, and explore how these defenses are tested when disputes land in international arbitration. The panel will also discuss what arbitral tribunals tend to reward or reject, and how AAA-ICDR procedure can shape the outcome.
