Hague Convention. The Hague Convention certainly applies only to unique59 exclusive agreements60 which select the courts of one country. An agreement which nominates the courts of more than one country as having “exclusive” jurisdiction is not exclusive under the Hague Convention. This leaves the effect of non-unique choice of court agreements to be resolved by the otherwise applicable regime.61 An agreement which nominates more than one court of the same country falls within the definition of an “exclusive” agreement under the Hague Convention. The national law of that country determines which of several selected national courts should have jurisdiction. 62 Both types of non-unique clause would therefore be effective under the Hague Convention, but only if both courts are in the same country.63
Hague Convention. (i) At the time of its entry into the governing law provisions of any agreement between Counterparty and any securities intermediary governing the Collateral Account (each such agreement, an “Account Agreement”) that are currently in force and at each time of any later EXECUTION amendment to any Account Agreement that reaffirmed such governing law provisions, any securities intermediary had an office located in the United States of America that was not a temporary office and that engaged in a business or other regular activity of maintaining securities accounts within the meaning of Article 4(1)(a) of the Hague Securities Convention.
(ii) This Agreement, each Collateral Account and any matter arising among the parties under or in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral Account, including the issues specified in Article 2 of the Hague Convention on the Law Applicable to Certain Rights in Respect of Securities Held with an Intermediary (the “Hague Securities Convention”), will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
(iii) Counterparty, Dealer and any securities intermediary agree that each and every Account Agreement is hereby amended to provide that with respect to the Collateral Account, the law applicable to all issues specified in Article 2(1) of the Hague Securities Convention shall be the laws of the State of New York. Counterparty and any securities intermediary covenant that no amendment with respect to any Account Agreement shall be entered into that would have the effect of changing the parties’ choice of law set forth in the previous sentence without the prior written consent of any applicable securities intermediary.

Hague Convention. Article 1(a) of the Hague Convention546 makes it an offence punishable under Article 2 by “severe penalties” where any person on board an aircraft in flight: “unlawfully, by force or threat thereof, or by any other form of intimidation, seizes, or exercises control of, that aircraft, or attempts to perform such act…”547 One point worth perhaps just noting is that a Contracting State must establish its jurisdiction over offences covered by the Convention not only when the aircraft in question is registered in such state548 or located within its territory549 but also: “when the offence is committed on board an aircraft leased without crew to a lessee who has his principal place of business or, if the lessee has no such place of business, his permanent residence, in that State.”550 Nevertheless, it is submitted that, apart from this provision, as with the Tokyo Convention, the Hague Convention has little or no applicability to the lessor-lessee relationship.
Hague Convention.
