Hi all,
Sorry to have missed yesterday's meeting.  I did get a chance to review the Zoom however. 

I have the following comments/questions:

1.  It looks as though Tijani's comment below does not change the substance but is more related to grammar/clarifying language.  However, I noted Phil Buckingham's comments in the chat yesterday regarding a proposal for language around "controlling interest" and certainly agree that this bears further consideration as the "litmus test" for control.

2. With respect to the disclosure requirement in relation to any entity that has a 15% or more interest in the Applicant Support applicant, it seems to me that this disclosure requirement should be extended through to the new gTLD application process and beyond up until the time the qualified ASP applicant is no longer required to prevent any transfer of a controlling interest.

3. Regarding the linking to the ASP Terms and Conditions page that is inserted in the draft Handbook, do we have any hope of making sure that the Terms and conditions are actually final BEFORE the November 19 opening of the program?  Of course it would be preferable for the Terms and Conditions to be final before the Handbook is published so that applicants and their governing bodies could review these before going to all the effort of applying.  This is particularly important given the fact that there will be a premium on getting an application in early in the window.  How soon can the ASP SubTrack get a proposed set of Terms and Conditions?

Thank you,
Anne

Thank you Renate,

 

In the slide 6, it’s written:

To be eligible for consideration, the applying entity cannot, in any of the past two years, have reported:

  • In excess of USD $5M revenue per annum from all sources as reported in their annual profit and loss statement
  • In excess of USD $5M Cash and Cash Equivalents (CCE) as reported in their financial year end balance sheets
  • The applying entity may not be majority 51% or more owned or controlled by an entity that does not meet the above criteria.

 

This will read for the 3rd bullet point:

To be eligible for consideration, the applying entity cannot, in any of the past two years, have reported The applying entity may not be majority 51% or more owned or controlled by an entity that does not meet the above criteria.

 

To be more accurate, I propose to modify it in that way:

To be eligible for consideration, the applying entity Cannot

  • in any of the past two years, have reported:

o   In excess of USD $5M revenue per annum from all sources as reported in their annual profit and loss statement

o   In excess of USD $5M Cash and Cash Equivalents (CCE) as reported in their financial year end balance sheets

  • be majority owned or controlled by an entity that does not meet the above criteria.
