<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">I
agree completely with Marilyn and Phil. I have been on both
sides of non-disclosure agreements – both ones requested by
me and ones requested by my clients. Typically, a client
(in the position of ICANN) may request that a consultant
sign an NDA so as to protect the confidentiality of its
efforts or its intellectual property. Sometimes a
consultant might have a proprietary methodology or process
that they are using on behalf of the client that they wish
to protect. </span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">Neither
circumstance applies here that I can see. And in no case
that I am aware of has a client ever asked me to keep
confidential my fee … I don’t broadcast them, but I’m in
the private sector. For ICANN, which is an NGO acting in
the global public interest, I cannot see any reason at all
why ICANN would want or agree to a confidentiality
arrangement as to the size of the fee paid.</span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">In
the U.S. much of what used to be done by registered
lobbyists is now performed by “strategic advisors”
who walk right up to the line of what constitutes
lobbying (and maybe a few inches over), and
nonetheless facilitate door opening to key members
of Congress and the Executive branch, and who
“educate” rather than “lobby” members of both
branches of government. So while the seven firms may
not be engaged in what is considered lobbying under
current U.S. law, they are still likely engaged in
helping to assure officials outcomes desired by
ICANN corporate.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">It
is for that reason – as well as for the exercise of
effective oversight over ICANN budgeting and
expenditures – that the community should have more
data on this. If ICANN is prohibited by its
contracts with these firms from disclosing its
expenditures that is unfortunate – and in the future
I would hope that ICANN would tell any firms being
considered for such duties that its own transparency
obligations to the community preclude it from
agreeing to such restrictions (I’d wager that the
majority of the firms would waive confidentiality
rather than lose the contract).
</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">At
a minimum, ICANN should disclose the aggregate
amounts spent with these seven firms since they were

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none;"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">Brett,</span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none;"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">Yes,
the information I provided in my latest email had
been included in some previous communication. I just
wanted to make sure you had a clear visibility on
this information, which provides for (i) categories
of expenses, (ii) the individual names of the
vendors grouped for each category, and (iii) the
total value of the expenses for each category.</span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none;"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">With
respect to the contractual obligations of
confidentiality in commercial contracts, ICANN is
subject to them, like all business organizations.
That said, we disclose what we can consistent with
standard business confidentiality provisions in
vendor contracts. We cannot disclose the specific
amount of spend with each vendor but we were able to
disclose the names of the service providers engaged.</span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none;"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">Regarding
the lobbying expenses, as you are aware, both
organizations that hire lobbyists and firms that
lobby on behalf of organizations are required under
U.S. federal law to file lobbying disclosure
reports. In addition to ICANN’s quarterly lobbying
disclosures posted on our website, you can find the
amounts ICANN has paid to individual outside
lobbying firms at
<a href="http://disclosures.house.gov/ld/ldsearch.aspx" target="_blank">http://disclosures.house.gov/ld/ldsearch.aspx</a>.</span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">I
hope this helps and clarifies.</span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">I
appreciate the detailed breakdown on
the legal fees That is indeed what I
was looking for though I would think
it useful to have the totals
provided in the summary document. </span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">However,
I did not see similar information
for lobbying or education/
engagement/advice in the links
provided. In fact, the only specific
information that I saw listed is for
Jamie Hedlund at $200,000. No
information on other individual
firms or vendors is listed at all –
only the top line budget expenditure
in the summary document link
originally sent around.

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">Could

question.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none;"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">We
currently publish the list of
all vendors from whom ICANN
obtain services in relation to
the IANA Stewardship transition.
The $$ value of the services
received is aggregated by
category of expenses, which you
mention below (US Government
affairs,
Education/engagement/advice,…).
This presentation is driven by 2
factors: providing clarity as to
the type of services received,
and abiding by the contractual
obligation of confidentiality in
force with each of the vendors
(resulting from standard
business sensitive information).</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">We
do publish however the detail of
the legal advice, by firm and by
working group, on this same page
(see for example the link to the
report of fees by firm:
<u><span style="color:#0B4CB4;"><a href="https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/iana-stewardship-expenses-legal-firm-fy16-01jun16-en.pdf%29" target="_blank">https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/iana-stewardship-expenses-legal-firm-fy16-01jun16-en.pdf)</a></span></u>.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">You
will also find more information
relative to ICANN’s lobbying in
the following blog published a
few months ago. In this blog,
you will also find links to the
disclosure reports that ICANN
makes on lobbying activities.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><u><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#0B4CB4;"><a href="https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/lobbying-disclosures-contributions-2015-11-18-en" target="_blank">https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/lobbying-disclosures-contributions-2015-11-18-en</a>.</span></u><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">Lastly,
further information on lobbying
appears in ICANN’s form 990
(Schedule C, Part II-B. On page
33/73 of the FY15 form 990
published at the following
link):</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>

</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;">I
hope this helps. Please let me
know if you have further
questions.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"></span></p>
