International Issues. The primary issues facing the foreign practitioner attempting to enforce a foreign-drafted prenuptial agreement in the United States, or a United States practitioner dealing with a party who is not a resident of the United States, involve conflicts of law issues and enforcement concerns when more than one jurisdiction is involved, and one of them is a foreign country. Under the American law of conflicts, the general rule is that the validity and the enforceability of the contract is determined by the law of the state where the contract was entered into. or the state whose laws the agreement specified will apply in a choice of law provision. According to one commentator, this doctrine is equally applicable to prenuptial agreements.39 In fact, one court has held that as a general rule, unless an explicit contrary intent is shown, a prenuptial agreement made in a foreign country is enforceable in the United States according to the law of the foreign country where it was executed.40 These general rules, however, are not without exception. The Restatement (Second) of Conflicts of Laws provides the following general statement of law that captures the majoring view of how state courts in the United States addresses this conflicts of law issue in the area of prenuptial agreements: a court shall apply the law of the state chosen by the parties in most cases, unless the state has no substantial relation to the contract or unless the law of that state offends a fundamental policy of a state having a greater interest in the particular issue. 41 In situations where the parties did not express an intention as to the law to be applied, the majority approach, which tracks with the Restatement, is that the laws and polices of the state having the most significant relationship to the transaction of the parties should be applied.42 39 Xxxxx X.

International Issues. Investors from jurisdictions other than the UK may be subject to local regulatory, tax or other legal constraints on their investments which may have a knock-on effect on how the limited partnership carries on its business. The LPA is therefore likely to contain clauses dealing with specific issues arising from having investors based overseas. The most commonly encountered clauses deal with the following US issues. Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) US pension fund investors are affected by US legislation, in particular, the Employee Retirement Income Security Xxx 0000 (ERISA) which is intended, amongst other things, to regulate the investment activities of the pension funds and their investment managers. Furthermore, the general partner may fall within the US regulatory net if certain conditions are not met. For these reasons, where investors in a fund are likely to include US pension funds, the LPA will include fairly extensive provisions allowing limited partners subject to ERISA to withdraw from the partnership if continued participation would breach ERISA rules. To comply with ERISA requirements, it may also be provided that the partnership will carry on its activities in such a way as to qualify as a “venture capital operating company”. To do this, the partnership should make at least half of its investments (measured by cost) into operating companies in which the general partner/manager has management rights (such as the ability to appoint a director to the board of that target company). It is relatively straightforward, in practice, for the manager to ensure compliance with ERISA. Unrelated Business Taxable Income (UBTI) US tax exempt investors may suffer US tax on “unrelated business taxable income” (UBTI) from investments made in tax transparent entities. Further, income arising from third party borrowings made by the partnership may be treated as UBTI. The LPA might therefore reflect the wishes of certain US investors to avoid UBTI and include mechanics for so doing.
