18 Consequences of Non-compliance Enforcement activity, including coordination of Federal agencies, has ramped up considerably since 9/11 Penalty authority has increased exponentially since 9/11 Individual criminal and civil liability for unauthorized exports and for misrepresentations Fines up to $500,000 per violation of ITAR/EAR (higher in certain circumstances) ($11k $50k $250k $500k) Fines up to $10,000 per violation of AES rules Seizure and forfeiture of attempted illegal exports Corporate death sentences Export license suspension and debarment Federal contract suspension and debarment 18 18
19 Ignorance Is No Excuse U.S. export controls are based upon strict liability -- violations do not require specific intent U.S. businesses, individuals, owners, managers, and employees may be penalized for violating laws they did not know they were violating or believed they were complying with fully Successors can be held liable whether or not they knew about predecessor s missteps and despite any deal arrangements 19
20 Successor Liability Liability for past activities of target are inherited by acquirer in both stock and asset deals (even when only selected assets are acquired) The deal documents / arrangements / structure often don t matter to the U.S. Government Seminal case -- Sigma-Aldrich Acquisition of selected assets by Sigma-Aldrich Biological materials sold by predecessor without license $1.76M administrative penalty imposed on acquirer 20
21 Enforcement Actions Learning the Hard Way Enforcement activity has ramped up considerably in recent years New focus on sub tier suppliers Establishment of Federal joint task forces Illustrative enforcement actions 21
22 How Does the Government Find Out About Non-compliance? Disgruntled current or former employees or contractors Competitors Distributors SED / AES review program Visa application review program Inspection of shipments Post-shipment verifications Voluntary disclosure 22
23 Best Practices Tips Know your customer / know yourself all involved parties Determine regulatory jurisdiction Determine CCL classification (if EAR) or USML category (if ITAR) Prepare written compliance plan / procedures Corporate Commitment and Policy (maximize export sales while ensuring compliance) Segregate EAR / ITAR Detailed procedures, with checks and safeguards Training / Awareness Internal Monitoring / Audits 23
24 Best Practices Tips (Cont d) Use TAAs / MLAs as appropriate (if ITAR) Review and update contract terms Cooperation between contractor and DoD, etc. in connection with contracts involving the U.S. Government Cooperation / communication between primes and sub-primes Use exemptions when appropriate Utilize voluntary disclosure mechanism Diligence in M&A 24
25 Select Other Trade Related Regulatory Issues Anti-Boycott Embodied in EAR Requires U.S. persons to refuse to participate in unsanctioned foreign boycotts Beware certain types of questions and requirements Countries of particular concern: Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, UAE, and Yemen CFIUS Foreign Investment and National Security Act of 2007 Dubai Ports deal Voluntary process, but beware post-acquisition rewind FCPA Prohibits U.S. companies and their shareholders, directors, agents, officers, and employees from paying or authorizing the payment of any money or anything else of value directly or indirectly to a foreign official for purposes of influence Requires adequate internal accounting 25
