    Dear Colleagues, <br>
    <br>
    Please find attached a follow-up legal memo on unicorporated
    associations, answering two questions :<br>
    1. it is not necessary to register a UA<br>
    2. the current description of SOs and ACs within the Icann Bylaws
    would not be sufficient to recognize each of them as UAs. <br>
    <br>
    Best<br>
