Section 202. Agreement or award falling under the Convention
An arbitration agreement or arbitral award arising out of a legal
relationship, whether contractual or not, which is considered as
commercial, including a transaction, contract, or agreement
described in section 2 of this title, falls under the Convention.
An agreement or award arising out of such a relationship which is
entirely between citizens of the United States shall be deemed not
to fall under the Convention unless that relationship involves
property located abroad, envisages performance or enforcement
abroad, or has some other reasonable relation with one or more
foreign states. For the purpose of this section a corporation is a
citizen of the United States if it is incorporated or has its
principal place of business in the United States.
