Re: [Ext] RE: Recommendation 36.4 re: Fraudulent and Deceptive Practices
by Lars Hoffmann May 14, 2025

May 14, 2025

Thanks, Susan. Section 4.3(f) in full is as follows (bolded is what was shared yesterday) and it is the same language shared on 25 April. 1. ICANN may, upon notice to Registry Operator, terminate this Agreement if (i) Registry Operator knowingly employs any officer who is convicted of a misdemeanor related to financial activities or of any felony, or is judged by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed fraud or breach of fiduciary duty, or is the subject of a judicial determination that ICANN reasonably deems as the substantive equivalent of any of the foregoing and such officer is not terminated within thirty (30) calendar days of Registry Operator’s knowledge of the foregoing, (ii) any member of Registry Operator’s board of directors or similar governing body is convicted of a misdemeanor related to financial activities or of any felony, or is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator to have committed fraud or breach of fiduciary duty, or is the subject of a judicial or arbitral determination that ICANN reasonably deems as the substantive equivalent of any of the foregoing and such member is not removed from Registry Operator’s board of directors or similar governing body within thirty (30) calendar days of Registry Operator’s knowledge of the foregoing, or (iii) the Registry Operator is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator to have committed fraud or deceptive practices in the provision of Registry Services under this Agreement for the TLD, or is the subject of a judicial or arbitral determination that ICANN reasonably deems as the substantive equivalent. Best, Jamie From: Susan Payne <susan.payne(a)comlaude.com> Date: Wednesday, 14 May 2025 at 11:30 To: Lars Hoffmann <lars.hoffmann(a)icann.org>, Jamie Hedlund <jamie.hedlund(a)icann.org> Cc: Karla Hakansson <karla.hakansson(a)icann.org>, Anne ICANN <anneicanngnso(a)gmail.com>, Jared Erwin via SubPro-IRT <subpro-irt(a)icann.org> Subject: [Ext] RE: Recommendation 36.4 re: Fraudulent and Deceptive Practices Thanks Lars (and Jamie) In order that the IRT can properly review this, please would you provide the whole of what is now proposed as section 4.3(f). The language for (iii) needs to be seen in context with the rest of the clause. Based on the text Karla shared in her note as the then latest proposal on 4.3(f) (reproduced below) I’m struggling to see how (iii) is supposed to fit: ICANN may, upon notice to Registry Operator, terminate this Agreement if (i) ICANN receives a complaint, or ICANN otherwise becomes aware, that Registry Operator is engaging in fraudulent or deceptive business practices in provision of Registry Services under this Agreement for the TLD; and (ii) such fraudulent or deceptive business practices have resulted in an adverse action or decision and a failure to remediate finding against the Registry Operator by a relevant governmental consumer protection authority or authorities with jurisdiction over the matter, or Registry Operator is the subject of a determination that ICANN reasonably deems as the substantive equivalent of any of the foregoing; provided that, if ICANN receives a complaint related to the foregoing, all available relevant documentation from such adverse action or decision and a failure to remediate finding must be included as part of the complaint. Is the proposed text for 4.3(f)(iii) meant to replace some or all of this (and so is not in fact (iii)), or is it an additional subclause, following on from (ii), and in which case is this “and” or “or” (either of which seem to lack coherence). As you know, we have a Council meeting at 0500UTC Thursday, where Anne and I have referred this matter.

Lars Dear IRT, Attached please find a revised org proposal for implementation of SubPro Recommendation 36.4. I am sharing this revised proposal as Karla is out this week. As you will see, the proposal would: * add a PIC to RA Spec. 11, Section 3 to prohibit a registry operator from engaging in fraudulent or deceptive business practices in performing any Critical Function under this Agreement. By narrowly defining the scope of registry conduct subject to a PIC, it limits the extent to which ICANN org would be placed in the role of enforcing substantive areas of law that are outside ICANN’s mission and bylaws. * amend RA Section 4.3(f) to allow ICANN to terminate an agreement if a registry operator is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator to have committed fraud or deceptive practices in the provision of Registry Services under this Agreement for the TLD, or is the subject of a judicial or arbitral determination that ICANN reasonably deems as the substantive equivalent. We look forward to discussing this proposal at the next IRT meeting following Karla’s return from vacation. Thank you.

Re: [Ext] Re: Updated AGB Language for PICs/RVCs, CPE, Application Questions
by Pruis, Elaine May 13, 2025

May 13, 2025

Thank you Jared Perhaps adding this sentence from your explanation “As noted in the Application Change Request section, if an applicant does not pass CPE, it must remain a community applicant/application, and the community registration policies must remain in their Registry Agreement.” At the end of “If the community-based applications (as there could be more than one) in a contention set do not meet the criteria set forth below, then all of the applications in the contention set will proceed to an ICANN auction. [See Section X.X Contention Resolution for more information.]” Would make it abundantly clear to everyone reading that section of the AGB. Thanks! Elaine From: Jared Erwin <jared.erwin(a)icann.org> Date: Tuesday, May 13, 2025 at 11:44 AM To: Elaine Pruis <epruis(a)verisign.com> Cc: Anne ICANN <anneicanngnso(a)gmail.com>, "subpro-irt(a)icann.org" <subpro-irt(a)icann.org> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [SubPro-IRT] Re: [Ext] Re: Updated AGB Language for PICs/RVCs, CPE, Application Questions Caution: This email originated from outside the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Dear Elaine and IRT Members, As a reminder, CPE does not determine the community status of an applicant/application. It determines whether a community application can achieve priority in the contention set, based on meeting the criteria. In that sense, the community status is not variable based on whether an application passes CPE. An applicant that marks its application as a community application cannot change that (as noted in the Application Change Request section). So, even if an applicant does not pass CPE, it must remain a community applicant/application, and the community registration policies (which must have already passed RCE), must remain in their Registry Agreement. Please let me know of any further questions. Thank you Jared From: "Pruis, Elaine" <epruis(a)verisign.com> Date: Monday, May 12, 2025 at 21:02 To: Jared Erwin <jared.erwin(a)icann.org> Cc: Anne ICANN <anneicanngnso(a)gmail.com>, "subpro-irt(a)icann.org" <subpro-irt(a)icann.org> Subject: Re: [SubPro-IRT] Re: [Ext] Re: Updated AGB Language for PICs/RVCs, CPE, Application Questions Hi, In the following scenario, “If the community-based applications (as there could be more than one) in a contention set do not meet the criteria set forth below, then all of the applications in the contention set will proceed to an ICANN auction. [See Section X.X Contention Resolution for more information.]” Can the community based applicant “change” to a “generic” application or are they still evaluated on the community specific items (registration polices) ? In other words are they held to the application commitments even if they don’t get CP?
