Summary

Internationale Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit, Beschwerde gegen den Teilschiedsspruch (Partial Award on Costs and Order) des Schiedsgerichts mit Sitz in Zürich vom 27. November 2020 (600519/2018).

Sachverhalt:

A.

A.a. Am 10. Mai 2018 leitete die B.________ L.P. (Klägerin, Beschwerdegegnerin) mit Sitz in U.________ bei der Swiss Chambers' Arbitration Institution (SCAI) ein Schiedsverfahren gegen die Rechtsvorgängerin der A.________ AG, V.________ (Beklagte, Beschwerdeführerin) ein.

Das Schiedsverfahren betrifft die Erfüllung eines Kaufvertrags ("Sale and Purchase Agreement") vom 3. Oktober 2013 und steht im Zusammenhang mit einem Schiedsentscheid vom 3. November 2017, der im Rahmen eines vorangehenden Schiedsverfahrens (600368/2014) erging ("Previous Award"). Es geht insbesondere um die Frage, ob die Klägerin wirksam vom Kaufvertrag zurückgetreten ist.

Der Abschluss des Sale and Purchase Agreement vom 3. Oktober 2013 beruht seinerseits auf der als "3-Way-Agreement" bezeichneten Vereinbarung, die in Artikel 7.3 die folgende Schiedsvereinbarung enthält, an welche die Parteien unbestrittenermassen gebunden sind:

"The parties hereto agree for them and their successors in title that any suit action or proceedings and settlement of any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with this agreement shall be exclusively and finally settled to the exclusion of the ordinary courts by arbitration under the Swiss Rules of International Arbitration of the Swiss Chambers of Commerce ('Swiss Rules') in force on the date when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted in accordance with these Rules by three arbitrators. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. Place of jurisdiction shall be Zurich."

Die - im Laufe des Verfahrens (mit Replik vom 7. Juni 2019 und Eingabe der Klägerin vom 6. Oktober 2019) angepassten - Klagebegehren lauten wie folgt:

"Claimant [...] respectfully requests the Tribunal to

A. declare that:

a) Claimant has, on 24 November 2017 (alternatively at a date determined by the Tribunal), effectively and validly withdrawn from the Sale and Purchase Agreement between Claimant and Respondent as perfected by the Previous Award;

b) As a result of this withdrawal, the Sale and Purchase Agreement was nullified with retroactive effect (ex tunc) as of 3 October 2013 (alternatively at a date determined by the Tribunal), thereby eliminating all claims of Respondent against Claimant under the Sale and Purchase Agreement as perfected by the Previous Award;

c) No option rights were transferred under Part 2 of the Previous Award from Claimant to Respondent based upon Respondent's provision of cheques to Claimant's counsel on 9 November 2017 or by Respondent's proposal of an escrow agreement on 21 November 2017.

B.1. declare that:

a) Claimant has a right against Respondent that the exchange facilitated by Decision of the Tribunal de première Instance in Geneva, dated 13 February 2019, docket number C/13582/2018 is reversed by way of Respondent transferring to Claimant

28,200 Shares (stocks) of C.________ N.V., W.________ (registered under dossier number xxx);

as of 4 March 2019 with a market value of EUR 123.1 million (alternatively an amount determined by the Tribunal), against concurrent payment of EUR 77,171,733.36.

b) In addition to B.1.a) above, Respondent is obliged to pay to Claimant all dividends paid by C.________ N.V., W.________ (registered under dossier number xxx), proportionately on the 28,200 Shares, and all interest paid by D.________ GmbH on the 25 Bond Certificates numbered 1 - 25, issued by D.________ GmbH, X.________ (FN yyy) on 4 March 2011, with a nominal value of EUR 500.000.- per Bond Certificate, in the event such payments occurred after 26 February 2019 plus 8 % interest above the respective reference rate per year from 4 March 2019.

B.2. order Respondent:

a) to transfer to Claimant 28,200 Shares (stocks) of C.________ N.V., W.________ (registered under dossier number xxx), with a nominal [value] of EUR 1.25, amounting to a share capital of 51.09% of C.________ N.V. or any other amount of Shares representing 51.09% of the voting and participation rights in C.________ N.V.

b) This transfer shall take place within 7 days against concurrent payment by Claimant of EUR 77,171,733.36.
