</span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt">3. Must not be used for political activity: ICANN is barred from any activity that intervenes in a political campaign for a candidate for public office. This includes not providing funds to a separate organization
 that intervenes in a campaign. Charter includes requirement that proceeds cannot be provided to organizations that intervene in campaigns for candidates (US or outside of US). This is a ‘trail’ down requirement - need to ensure that proceeds down the line
 are not provided for this purpose.&nbsp;</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt">4. Should not be used for lobbying activities - ICANN engages in a small amount of activity that is classified as lobbying, which in the US focuses on attempts to influence legislation. If ICANN provides
 funds to other organization that engages in lobbying activities, such activities would be considered ICANN’s. CCWG could impose requirement that all recipients agree to this commitment as part of the grant process. Where is the line, especially looking across
 jurisdictions? There may be a number of objective criteria that could be identified - such as registrations as a lobbyist.&nbsp;</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt">5. Conflict of interest considerations - taking decisions without conflict of interest is paramount. ICANN is prohibited from benefitting insiders to ICANN. Appropriate limitations include prohibitions
 auction proceeds being awarded to business that are owned in whole or in part by ICANN board members, executives or staff or their family members. Community conflict of interest concerns should also be takin into account. What will be the separation between
 those making the recommendations and those eligible for award? What segregation of duties or commitments from participants in the CCWG might be appropriate? May not be possible to draw a firm line at this stage of the process, but very important to keep this
 as an ongoing conversation and be transparent about it.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt">6. Procedural Concerns - ICANN will always be responsible for making sure that funds are provided to the appropriate organization both in confirmation of mission and in making sure that funds are provided
 in a manner consistent with ICANN’s 501(c)(3) status. &nbsp;Number of things that the CCWG can do: make transparent assessment of how the recommendations service ICANN’s mission, considerations of use of established mechanisms for disbursement of funds, as opposed
 to calling for development of untested mechanisms, recommendations that enhance transparency.&nbsp;</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt">7. Financial and Fiduciary Concerns: the Board and Officers of ICANN hold fiduciary duties to the organization to make sure that self-dealing does not occur and their private interests are not benefited
 through ICANN’s decision making and actions. The process through which funds will be disbursed must happen as transparently as possible, without conflict, and based on complete information. ICANN will maintain an ongoing audit function over the distribution
 process; there is an ongoing governance role.&nbsp;</span><o:p></o:p></p>
