Board Conflicts of Interest Policy
by Denise Michel Oct. 28, 2010

Oct. 28, 2010

*Conflicts of Interest Policy *[Adopted March 4, 1999, pursuant to ICANN Bylaws, Article V, Section 7, and Article VI, Section 3(b)] This policy superseded by the 30 July 2009 version<http://www.icann.org/en/committees/coi/coi-policy-30jul09-en.htm>. *1. Purpose* The purpose of the Conflicts of Interest policy is to ensure that the deliberations and decisions of the Corporation are made in the interests of the global Internet community as a whole, and to protect the interests of the Corporation when it is contemplating entering into a transaction, contract, or arrangement that might benefit the private interest of an Interested Director, Officer or Person (as defined below). An Interested Director, Officer or Person may not use his or her position with respect to the Corporation, or confidential corporate information obtained by him or her relating to the Corporation, in order to achieve a financial benefit for himself or herself or for a third person, including another nonprofit or charitable organization. This policy is intended to supplement but not replace any applicable laws governing conflicts of interest in nonprofit and charitable corporations. *2. Definitions* 2.1 *Compensation*. "Compensation" includes direct and indirect remuneration as well as gifts or favors that are substantial in nature. 2.2 *Family*. The "family" of any individual shall include only his or her spouse; his or her siblings and their spouses; his or her ancestors; and his or her descendants and their spouses. 2.3 *Financial Interest*. A person has a "financial interest" if the person has, directly or indirectly, through business, investment or family: (a) An existing or potential ownership or investment interest in any entity with which the Corporation has a transaction, contract, or other arrangement, or (b) A compensation arrangement with the Corporation or with any entity or individual with which the Corporation has a transaction, contract, or other arrangement, or (c) An existing or potential ownership or investment interest in, or compensation arrangement with, any entity or individual with which the Corporation is negotiating a transaction, contract, or other arrangement, or (d) An existing or potential ownership or investment interest in, or compensation arrangement with, any entity whose business or operation has been or will be directly affected by a decision or action of the Corporation. 2.4 *Interested Director*. "Interested Director" shall mean any Director of the Corporation who has a material financial interest, as defined above, or who serves as a Director or Officer of any entity with which the Corporation has a transaction, contract, or other arrangement. 2.5 *Interested Officer*. "Interested Officer" shall mean any Officer who has a material financial interest, as defined above, or who serves as a Director or Officer of any entity with which the Corporation has a transaction, contract, or other arrangement. For purposes of this policy, the President of the Corporation shall be treated as an Officer. 2.6 *Interested Person*. "Interested Person" shall mean either: (a) Any person currently being compensated by the Corporation for services rendered to it within the previous 12 months, whether as a full- or part-time employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, or (b) Any person whose family member, as defined in Section 2.2, is currently being compensated by the Corporation for services rendered to it within the previous 12 months, whether as a full- or part-time employee, independent contractor, or otherwise. *3. Committee on Conflicts of Interest* 3.1 To administer and monitor compliance with this Policy, the Board shall create a Committee of the Board on Conflicts of Interest<http://www.icann.org/committees/coi/>("Conflicts Committee"), to consist of at least two Directors named by the Board. 3.2 The Conflicts Committee <http://www.icann.org/committees/coi/> shall require a statement from each Director and Officer not less frequently than once a year setting forth all business and other affiliations which relate in any way to the business and other activities of the Corporation. *4. Duty to Abstain* 4.1 No Director shall vote on any matter in which he or she has a material and direct financial interest that will be affected by the outcome of the vote. 4.2 In the event of such an abstention, the abstaining Director shall state the reason for the abstention, which shall be noted in the minutes of the Board of Directors. *5. Disclosure by Directors and Officers* 5.1 When requested by the Conflicts Committee (not less frequently than once a year), each Director and Officer shall promptly submit a statement to the Committee setting forth all business and other affiliations which relate in any way to the business and other affiliations of the Corporation. 5.2 With respect to any particular matter then pending before the Corporation, each Director and Officer shall disclose to the Conflicts Committee any matter that could reasonably be considered to make the Director or Officer an "Interested Director" or "Interested Officer," as defined above. 5.3 With respect to any particular matter then pending before the Corporation, each Director and Officer shall disclose to the Conflicts Committee any relationship or other factor that could reasonably be considered to cause the Director or Officer to be considered to be an "Interested Person," as defined above. 5.4 For purposes of this section, Officers of the Corporation need not disclose compensation and other benefits paid to the Officer by the Corporation pursuant to Board resolution. *6. Disclosure by Supporting Organization* Members of or participants in Supporting Organization councils must disclose conflicts of interest or other financial interests in matters within the scope of the Supporting Organization in the manner required by the Bylaws of the Supporting Organization. *7. Procedures in Connection with Proposed Transactions and Arrangements* 7.1 Scope. This section applies to any proposed transaction, contract, or arrangement in which a Director, Officer, or Interested Person has a material financial interest. 7.2 Duty to Disclose. In connection with any actual or possible conflicts of interest, an Interested Director or Interested Officer must disclose the existence and nature of his of her material financial interest to the Conflicts Committee prior to the consideration of the proposed transaction, contract, or arrangement by the Board or any Committee of the Board. 7.3 Determining Whether a Conflict of Interest Exists. After disclosure of the financial interest, the disinterested members of the Conflicts Committee shall determine whether a conflict of interest exists. Neither the Board nor any Committee of the Board shall vote upon any proposed transaction, contract, or arrangement in connection with which an actual or possible conflict of interest has been disclosed by an Interested Director until such time as the Conflicts Committee has addressed the actual or possible conflict of interest. For matters pending before the full Board of Directors, a referral to the Conflicts Committee will not be required where the Interested Director fully discloses to the Board his or her financial interest and abstains from participation in the Board's consideration of the proposed transaction, contract, or arrangement. 7.4 Procedures for Addressing a Conflict of Interest 7.4.1 Where a matter has been referred to the Conflicts Committee and the Conflicts Committee has concluded that a conflict of interest exists, the chairman of the Board or Committee of the Board shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction, contract, or arrangement. 7.4.2 After exercising due diligence, the Board or Committee shall determine whether the Corporation can obtain a more advantageous transaction, contract, or arrangement with reasonable efforts from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. 7.4.3 If a more advantageous transaction, contract, or other arrangement is not reasonably attainable under circumstances that would not give rise to a conflict of interest, the Board or Committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested Directors whether the transaction, contract, or arrangement is in the Corporation's best interest and for its own benefit and whether it is fair and reasonable to the Corporation, and shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction, contract, or arrangement in conformity with such determination. *8. Violations of the Conflicts of Interest Policy* 8.1 If the Conflicts Committee has reasonable cause to believe that a Director or Officer has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall inform the Director or Officer of the basis for such belief and afford the Director or Officer an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. 8.2 If, after hearing the response of the Director or Officer and making such further investigation as may be warranted in the circumstances, the Conflicts Committee determines that the member has in fact failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall recommend to the Board of Directors appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. 8.3 The violation of this conflicts of interest policy is a serious matter and may constitute "cause" for removal or termination of a Director or Officer, or the termination of any contractual relationship the Corporation may have with an Interested Person or other party. *9. Records of Proceedings* 9.1 The minutes of the Conflicts Committee shall contain: (a) The names of Directors and Officers found to have a material financial interest in connection with an actual or possible conflict of interest; the nature of the financial interest; any action taken to determine whether a conflict of interest was present; and the decision of the Conflicts Committee as to whether a conflict of interest in fact existed. (b) The names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the actual or potential conflict of interest; the content of the discussion; and a record of any votes taken in connection therewith. 9.2 In connection with a conflict of interest, the minutes of the Board or other Committee of the Board shall contain the names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement; the content of the discussion, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement; and a record of any votes taken in connection therewith. *10. Compensation Committees* A member of any Committee of the Board the jurisdiction of which includes compensation matters and who receives compensation from the Corporation for services is precluded from voting on matters pertaining to that member's compensation. *11. Annual Statements* Each Director and Officer shall annually sign a statement which affirms that such person: (a) Has received a copy of the conflicts of interest policy; (b) Has read and understands the policy; (c) Has agreed to comply with the policy; and (d) Understands that the Corporation is a charitable organization and that in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. *12. Periodic Reviews* The Conflicts Committee shall periodically consider whether and how this Conflicts of Interest Policy should be revised or amended to better meet its objectives. In connection with any periodic review conducted by the Corporation to ensure that it operates in a manner consistent with its charitable purposes, the Conflicts Committee shall report on the matters referred to it and their resolution.

NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED Hello All, Although I should be able to join some of the conference call tonight, I am due to get on a plane half way through, so thought I would let you know my views on the discussions so far. Lynn's perspective below reflects exactly my thoughts. We all applied for this role, having understood what the Call for Applicants meant and all of our CVs, letters and statements are readily available for all to read. I understood that following our first conference call we were expected to self nominate or nominate a Chair - and that is exactly what happened. I felt I had enough knowledge of the nominees from available documentation, and was pleased we seemed to have achieved the position of Chair and Vice Chair in such an efficient and effective method. (Thanks Kathy and Emily for volunteering). Reading through our CVs etc., I am sure we allhave enough experience to know broadly what is expected of a Chair and Vice Chair ? We can finesse that as we go along, if Kathy and Emily need more support. Although not set in stone, we have set ourselves some challenging timescales, so our decision making around processes needs to be slick -so we can get on with the business in hand, about which I am very excited to be a part. If I don't get a chance to say tonight, I have consulted with law enforcement internationally about this Review, so I can represent all of our issues and thoughts - and they are looking forward to hearing how we are getting along and greatly appreciate our inclusion in the debate.

I had thought that the relatively small size of our team would permit us to be a bit more relaxed. It also seemed to me that the purpose and scope of our work had already been determined and was included in the Call for Applicants, so we do not need to invest time and energy along those lines. Finally, we all submitted a CV and a Statement of Interest so it is clear that everyone is well qualified to participate. We had the additional opportunity of introducing ourselves in last week's call. Although I am not personally acquainted with the rest of the team, I was comfortable with the information available to support the proposed nominations. I have been in some groups where no one wants to take the Chair because of the additional work required so I am grateful that we have two team members willing to step up for Chair and Vice-Chair. It is wonderful to have Rod Beckstrom engaged and highly supportive of this effort so we should be sensitive not to unduly impose on him. -Lynn -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Rt4-whois] Chair nominations invited for the WHOIS Review Team - Acceptance and Vice Chair From: "Smith, Bill" <bill.smith(a)paypal-inc.com> Date: Wed, October 27, 2010 1:58 pm To: "Kim G. von Arx" <kim(a)vonarx.ca>, Susan Kawaguchi <skawaguchi(a)facebook.com> Cc: "rt4-whois(a)icann.org" <rt4-whois(a)icann.org> Some quick points: 1. Internal structure, process, rules, etc. can be a simple task, provided we adopt a commonly used model. However, if our intention is otherwise, we could devote a significant amount of time to that task (I have personal experience with this). I would prefer that we spend our time on the task at hand, an assessment, and it is for this reason that I proposed both Robert's Rules and a draft scope. 2. We did agree to solicit nominations. We also agreed to continue the discussion on the items in the first agenda, including Terms of Reference. We further agreed that we would continue working on these until they were resolved, whether in one, two, or more weeks. I don't recall that we agreed to a specific sequencing of these items and assumed that we would work on them in parallel, where practical. It seems quite reasonable to me to begin discussions on our Terms of Reference, as a means of expediting our work, *and* to better understand each other and how we might work together. 3. I see no issue with Rod continuing to lead us as we define our Terms of Reference. I believe he was particularly effective during last week's call and expect he would be similarly effective as we discuss terms of reference, etc. Should his stewardship become problematic, and I do *not* envision that, we could always elect a chair at that time. 4. I too support Susan's comments re qualities. However, I have limited experience with the members of this Review Team and as a consequence, would benefit from seeing the group interact more before I consider selecting a chair. 5. I took Susan's chair constituency statement as a comment on the multi-stakeholder nature of ICANN. I share her (somewhat) concern and support her suggestion that we consider "diversity" when making decisions/assignments. That seems to be in keeping with ICANN's general approach to filling positions. I did *not* take her comments in any way as a personal statement about either nominee. 6. Robert's Rules is designed for "Deliberative Assemblies" like ours. It is used by numerous societies and organizations to bring a common sense order to their proceedings and importantly, to protect the rights of the individual in such bodies. I find several references to its use within ICANN, including the Registrar Stakeholder Group, and the GNSO Council (for voting). In addition, ARIN, ISOC, IEEE, OASIS, use Robert's Rules. (While Robert's might be the standard in share capital organizations, in my experience it is also the standard at societies, associations, etc. I admit my ignorance with Wainberg's but some quick Internet searches does not reveal significant use - in my opinion.) We also have other administrative issues to consider; like proxies, alternate representation, decision making (presumably consensus), how will we define consensus, ... > -----Original Message----- > From: Kim G. von Arx [mailto:kim@vonarx.ca] > Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2010 6:11 PM > To: Susan Kawaguchi > Cc: Smith, Bill; rt4-whois(a)icann.org > Subject: Re: [Rt4-whois] Chair nominations invited for the WHOIS Review > Team - Acceptance and Vice Chair > > All: > > Thanks to Bill and Susan for valuable procedural points.

Chair nominations invited for the WHOIS Review Team - Acceptance and Vice Chair
by Olivier ITEANU Oct. 27, 2010

Oct. 27, 2010

Dear All, Considering that I am very new in the Icann process (I was part of it in 2001), I do not know personally Kathy and Emily but it seems that many of you know each others and know them: if there is a consensus on them, that's fine for me, Kathy and Emily seem very competent for the job. However, if there is another candidate, I think that we need an urgent coming out !

My warm thanks to Kim for the nomination, and James, Emily, Sharon and Lynn for their endorsement. As I mentioned at the end of our call, we are a great group for the challenging work ahead, and I am very impressed by the range of experiences and expertise we bring together. I would like to recommend that we also elect a Vice Chair. With the many meetings ahead, by telephone and in person, it will be good to have a Vice-Chair provide continuity of leadership and assist with the duties of the Chair. For this position, I would like to nominate Emily Taylor. Emily served as the Director of Legal and Policy for Nominet (.UK) from 2000 to 2009. There she led the creation of Nominet's WHOIS policy, working closely with law enforcement and privacy regulators, as well as other internal and external stakeholders. Emily represents the ccNSO on our Review Team and also served as Director of Counsel for European Top Level Domain Registries (CENTR). She is intricately familiar with the complexity of the issues represented by the Whois from a ccTLD perspective, and brings a wealth of experience in the challenges of bottom-up, consensus policy processes in this area.

Kathy has been involved in the ICANN world from its inception and has significant experience in the industry and the WHOIS issues.

Kathy understands the issues that are of concern to each of the major constituencies of ICANN and can, as she has shown in the past for many sensitive issues, guide the discussions and resolutions to an outcome that is acceptable to all parties involved.
