The wind-down period will end on November 11, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, on January 14, 2021, the U.S. Department of Defense (&#8220;DoD<strong>&#8220;<\/strong>)\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/media.defense.gov\/2021\/Jan\/14\/2002565154\/-1\/-1\/0\/DOD-RELEASES-LIST-OF-ADDITIONAL-COMPANIES-IN-ACCORDANCE-WITH-SECTION-1237-OF-FY99-NDAA.PDF\">designated<\/a> nine further Chinese companies as CCMCs targeted under EO 13959.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Key Points from OFAC&#8217;s FAQs<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>As of January 14, 2021, OFAC has issued a total of 13 FAQs on EO 13959. Some of the most significant are described below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/policy-issues\/financial-sanctions\/faqs\/858\">FAQ 858<\/a>\u00a0notes that some names of CCMCs previously identified by the Department of Defense (DoD) do not match the names of issuers of publicly traded securities. The FAQ states that the EO applies to securities of CCMCs \u201cwith a name that exactly or closely matches the name of an entity\u201d identified in the Annex to EO 13959 or subsequently identified by the DoD or Treasury Department. The newly issued\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.treasury.gov\/ofac\/downloads\/ccmc\/ns-ccmc_list.pdf\">Non-SDN Communist Chinese Military Companies List<\/a>\u00a0provides additional identifying information.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/policy-issues\/financial-sanctions\/faqs\/860\">FAQ 860<\/a> provides examples of financial instruments covered by this provision include, but are not limited to, derivatives (e.g., futures, options, swaps), warrants, American depositary receipts (&#8220;ADRs&#8221;), global depositary receipts (&#8220;GDRs&#8221;), exchange-traded funds (&#8220;ETFs&#8221;), index funds, and mutual funds, to the extent, such instruments also meet the definition of \u201csecurity\u201d as defined in section 4(d) of <a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/system\/files\/126\/13959.pdf\">E.O. 13959.<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/policy-issues\/financial-sanctions\/faqs\/861\">FAQ 861<\/a> clarifies that U.S. persons are prohibited from investing in U.S. or foreign funds, such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or other mutual funds, that hold publicly traded securities of a Communist Chinese military company.<\/li>\n<li>In <a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/policy-issues\/financial-sanctions\/faqs\/863\">FAQ 863<\/a>, OFAC provides guidance on which services are considered permissible under EO 13959. OFAC stated that \u201csupport services\u201d such as clearing, execution, settlement, custody, transfer agency, and back-end services, as well as other such support services by or involving a U.S. person, are permissible, to the extent they are not provided to U.S. persons in connection with prohibited transactions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Export Compliance Obligations<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The ultimate responsibility for complying with E.O. 13959 will fall to those U.S. persons transacting or potentially transacting with the listed businesses. U.S. persons may not rely on an exact name match to identify CCMC securities, but rather must exercise due diligence, including identifying similar names, to determine whether securities are subject to the prohibition in E.O. 13959.<\/p>\n<p>It is critical to note that CCMCs are\u00a0<em><strong>not<\/strong><\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em>listed on the Consolidated Screening List. Therefore, U.S. companies must manually screen CCMCs against OFAC&#8217;s list or utilize a private screening tool that includes the CCMCs.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>If you violate any of the regulations, there are severe penalties<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Violations of export and sanctions laws <a href=\"https:\/\/diaztradelaw.com\/maersk-pays-3-million-for-trading-with-iran-and-sudan\/\">carry hefty civil and criminal penalties<\/a>.\u00a0 Many U.S. businesses have paid hefty civil penalties for violating U.S. export control laws.
