Chuck,

Thank-you. Lise and I had talked about getting this dealt as an instruction coming out of the next CWG meeting.

However, I take your point that it would be good to get it answered in time for the meeting if possible.

Are there any objections to referring this to Sidley immediately?

Jonathan,

Please note the following input I received on this from David Maher in the RySG:

“In the Sidley draft legal memo regarding PTI and ICANN (April 18, 2015), they say:

“This will ensure that the IANA naming functions is both functionally and legally “ring fenced” from the ICANN entity.”

The proposed secondment of virtually all PTI personnel from ICANN appears to me to pose a legal risk that PTI would not be considered a separate corporation under California law. I suggest that Sidley be asked to look into this. ”

As David suggests, I think it would be very good if the client committee requested Sidley to look into this as soon as possible so that we could have their response prior to our next CWG meeting.

All,

FYI.

Please note We did not have an IOTF call today so have not yet had the opportunity to discuss this item.
