[bylaws-coord] Explanation of grandfathered agreements

[Rosemary E. Fei]

Dear Bylaws Coordination Group:

During the CCWG call on April 12, Mathieu noted that, in order to approve the proposed Bylaws, the CCWG would need an explanation for the unanimous decision among the Sidley and Adler firms and ICANN Legal to include specified agreements and the current Strategic and Operating Plans in the list of "grandfathered" documents in Section 1.1(d)(ii) of the draft Bylaws circulated on April 7, 2016.  The explanation, approved by all three counsels, is attached, in Word and pdf formats.  Please distribute to the full CCWG list, if you deem that appropriate.

Please let us know if you need any further information on this point.

Rosemary, Holly, and John
