FYI From: ICANN [mailto:no-reply@wufoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 29, 2016 6:48 PM To: gnso.secretariat@icann.org; council@gnso.icann.org Subject: [EXTERNAL] GNSO Council Abstention Notification Form [#226] Name of Officer: * Greg Shatan Officer Email Address: * gregshatanipc@gmail.com<mailto:gregshatanipc@gmail.com> Date Prepared: * Tuesday, November 29, 2016 GNSO Organization: * Intellectual Property Constituency Officer Position or Title: * President Voting Remedy: * Proxy Reason(s) for or condition(s) leading to the remedy: * Per Heather Forrest: "mid-way through the Council meeting I will stay on the phone but drop off Adobe to get to the airport for a flight to Perth. The flight time is 30 mins after our Council call is scheduled to end, but unfortunately we've run over in Council meetings lately, so I will likely miss whatever happens after our scheduled stop time. All the votes are on the front end of the meeting, but in case I have any connectivity issues it would be prudent to do the proper process so that Paul has my proxy if I drop off. I don't expect problems, but it's better to be prepared than to cause issues on the day." Specific subject(s)/measure(s)/motion(s)/action(s) of the Council for which the remedy is being exercised: * Any subjects/measures/motions/actions taking place during any periods where Heather Forrest loses connectivity or needs to leave the call. Date upon which the remedy will expire or terminate: [Note: may not exceed 3 months initially; may be renewed by sending an email with explanation to GNSO Secretariat] * Friday, December 2, 2016 I affirm that a voting position has been established on the matter(s) at issue pursuant to provisions contained in our Charter or Bylaws. * Yes Our GNSO Councilor has been instructed on how to vote on the matter(s). * Yes Please identify the GNSO Councilor who will serve as the voting proxy: * Paul McGrady
