50 The Protection of Foreign PE Investors In China 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP
51 Introduction Reasons of PE disputes Features of PE disputes Limitations and problems of resolving PE disputes by suits or arbitrations overseas Methods to protect the rights and interests of foreign PE investors in China 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 50
52 Part one Introduction 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 51
53 As s new comer in China, PE of considerable distinguishing features and advantages has developed strikingly in China, and causes troubles frequently. In the case that disputes occurred, foreign investors always resort to litigation and arbitration abroad. However, it seems impossible for them to protect their interests thoroughly Winston & Strawn LLP 52
54 Part two Reasons of PE Disputes 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 53
55 I. Fake statements and guarantees of domestic corporations founders. II. De facto controllers of domestic corporations divert, invade and occupy property of corporations Winston & Strawn LLP 54
56 III. Connected transactions managed by de facto controllers damage interests of domestic corporations. IV. De facto controllers of domestic corporations refuse to return de facto control Winston & Strawn LLP 55
57 V. PE investors are hardly able to exercise their rights to hear from domestic corporations. VI. De facto controllers of domestic corporations refuse to carry out the Ratchet terms Winston & Strawn LLP 56
58 Part Three Features of PE Disputes 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 57
59 Four Features of PE Disputes Lacks of adequate domestic legal basis and judicial precedents. Diversities and complexities of the model of investments and the frame of stocks. Laws of several nations are involved in one dispute. The process of solving disputes is complex Winston & Strawn LLP 58
60 PART FOUR Limitations and Problems of Overseas jurisdictions 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 59
61 I. Foreign courts judgments, relevant orders of provisional and preservation measures are usually not recognized or enforced in China. II. Besides, there are circumstances ruled in the Civil Procedure law showing that China can refuse to recognize and enforce certain judgments of foreign courts Winston & Strawn LLP 60
62 III. Courts of foreign arbitral authority could not preserve property and evidence of two parties in China. IV. Related obligees can not directly take over corporations in China according to relevant orders made by foreign courts 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 61
63 Case: Danone appointed KMPG as receiver to take over assets of Wahaha in Without a permission of a people s court of China, KMPG just took up activities of taking over. In 2008, the court of the second and final instance judged that KMPG acted against the principle of national judicial sovereignty, invaded the sovereignty of Chinese jurisdiction and should extend a formal apology in public as the requirement of the judgment Winston & Strawn LLP 62
64 V. Even if the PE investors win suits or arbitrations, it is still impossible to take control of the invested corporations Facts and Reasons: Valued occupations, such as legal representatives, directors of operation, chief financial officers and so on, are usually in the control of the previous legal representative, and so are important signatures and documents like official seals, data and bank accounts Winston & Strawn LLP 63
65 Part Five Methods to Protect Lawful Interests of Foreign PE Investors in China 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 64
66 I. Applicable non-legal action II. Civil suits III. Criminal report 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 65
67 Applicable non-legal actions Renew directors, supervisors and other senior executives of the domestic corporation through its inner procedure and complete the formalities of business change. Take measures to control the important stuff, including official seals, the copy of business licenses of the corporation and the financial documents like accounting books Winston & Strawn LLP 66
68 Civil Suits I. the shareholders right to be informed II. returning the official seals, financial accounting books Law suits of III. the damage of the directors, supervisors and senior executives IV. the removal of obstacles V. dismissing corporations VI. representatives of shareholders 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 67
69 2013 Winston & Strawn LLP 68
