<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- Board introduction: The Board is preparing comments on the CWG as well as CCWG proposals. The Board has yet to form a position on the CCWG proposal. This call will help Board members get up-to-speed on key elements of
the proposal and provide context for the formal response. This will also be an opportunity to ask questions. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- CCWG introduction: The public comment period does not represent consensus yet. We are seeking input on whether moving in the right direction. The comment period will end on 3 June. Bruce Tonkin has played an outstanding role in providing information. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">There are two tracks. The CCWG will be relayed to NTIA. Linkage between CCWG and CWG is extremely important. Lise Fuhr is on the call if any questions on linkage. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">Questions can be asked directly and no room for misinterpretation - we hope this dialogue will continue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">We started work in December by assessing the current situation. In January, the group came up with requirements for WS1. This was discussed in Singapore, including with Board, and was refined in Istanbul. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">We established status quo in first stages of our work i.e. inventory of existing mechanisms and community input with respect to accountability using the public comment report produced by ICANN. We came up with requirements. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">Here are the four building blocks upon which can build the accountability mechanisms that are needed:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- Empowered community (legislative)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">To make sure the Board does not change principles and remove judiciary or jeopardizes changes etc, the concept of Fundamental Bylaws was suggested. Suggested Fundamental Bylaws include:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- Mission, Commitments & Core Values<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- (Kavouss Arasteh) Who participates in recalling individual Board members? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">--> There needs to be a legal vehicle for communities to enforce different rights and powers. Anyone that appoints a director conforms the entity to vote. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">Various options offered throughout the report are based on assumption that SO/ACs would form unincorporated associations. It is not for us to decide who would join and who would not but we are giving equal treatment. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- (Steve Crocker) Board is impressed and grateful for amount of work put into this. We are strongly in favor of accountability. With respect to recalling individual Board members, it appears the
underlying notion is that Board members are representing SO/ACs and ground to initiate is that not representing SO/AC. In our Bylaws, training of Board members and discipline, it is clear that Board members serve entire organization and community, not their individual appointing bodies i.e. acting in the best interest. Creation of recalling
individual Board Directors pushes into the direction of a representative legislator as opposed to cohesive oversight process. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">--> Possibility to remove individual Directors was set as a measure to remove directors who did something entirely wrong We are cognizant that it is a big stick that we should not apply lightly. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- (Steve Crocker) There is a broad principle of proportionality. The community already has a mechanism to remove individual Board members: if a Board member is not handling information appropriately etc.
What criteria would be used to remove a Director? What information would be available? It requires clarification.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">--> The processes shall be defined by different SO/ACs - nothing is prescribed. We will consider 1) current mechanisms ; 2) giving guidance to SO/ACs and set ting guidelines for processes. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">- (Cherine Chalaby) There are two classes it seems : 1) SO/ACs - 2) NomCom - that is a contradiction to Board members being accountable to all stakeholders. There should be one process - a unique standard of review - for all Board members. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir">- (Rinalia Abdul Rahim ) If SO/ACs move forward and create Unincorporated Associations, would the process involve reviewing their own accountability mechanisms, or even strengthening it?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><u><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">SO/AC Membership Model </span></u><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">Legal adivce received from lawyers point that this is the most effective way to provide community with powers. There needs to be a legal vehicle for community to enforce different rights. Two ways: 1) a membership model; 2) a designators model. Designators cannot accommodate all powers. The membership model is the preferred model as a result. There would a petition by SO/AC. First
need to see if petition meets required threshold, then would move on to voting. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><u><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">Unincorporated Associations </span></u><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Avenir;color:black">Legal entity will provide vehicle for SO/ACs to exercise powers. They are lightweight structures. The governing document would be set by each of SO/ACs. This would be filed upon State of California
Law. Unincorporated Associations is easiest way to provide this vehicle but it is not the only way.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
