(viii) Two parties collaborate with ill intent to sign a contract which harms the interests of the State, collective or a third party or use the legal format of signing a contract to conceal an illegal goal. (ix) The content of a contract violates the fundamental principles of Chinese law or the public interests of Chinese society. 4. The Question of Revoking Foreign Economic Contracts: A party to a contract shall have the right to request the People's Court to revoke a contract in the following circumstances: (1) There is significant misunderstanding over the content of a contract which has been signed. (2) The contract has clearly lost its impartiality. A foreign economic contract which is revoked shall hold no legal binding force from the date of its signing. 5. The Question of Dealing with Foreign Economic Contracts after Confirmation of Invalidation or Revocation: (1) If part of a contract is invalid, but it does not affect the validity of the remainder of the contract, the rest of the contract shall remain in effect. If the parties to a contract decide through consultation to dissolve or amend an invalid clause in the contract, the validity of the contract shall not be affected. (2) If a contract is confirmed as being invalid or is revoked due to a fault on the part of one of the parties to the contract, the negligent party shall be liable for compensation of losses suffered by the other party to the contract as a result of the contract being confirmed as invalid or revoked. If both parties to a contract are responsible for the contract being confirmed as invalid or being revoked, each party shall bear its own corresponding liabilities. (3) If both parties to a contract have colluded with ill intent to sign under false pretenses a foreign economic contract which involves activities which violate State law or the public interests of society and which harm the interests of the State or a third party, besides confirming the invalidation of the contract, the illegal gains of the two parties shall be pursued and returned to the State or the third party. Penalties in the form of a reprimand or fine may be imposed or an order of detention may be given, depending on the seriousness of the case. If it is discovered that the case involves an economic crime, the matter shall be transferred to the public security and investigating and prosecuting organs for investigation and handling. 6.
