1: GNSO Council Voting Thresholds (ICANN Bylaws, Article X, Section 3)</span></strong><span
lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><br>
<br>
9. Except as otherwise specified in these Bylaws, Annex A hereto, or the GNSO
Operating Procedures, the default threshold to pass a GNSO Council motion or
other voting action requires a simple majority vote of each House. The voting
thresholds described below shall apply to the following GNSO actions:<br>
<br>
1. Create an Issues Report: requires an affirmative vote of more than 25% vote
of each House or majority of one House;<br>
2. Initiate a Policy Development Process (“PDP”) Within Scope (as
described in Annex A): requires an affirmative vote of more than 33% of each
House or more than 66% of one House;<br>
3. Initiate a PDP Not Within Scope: requires an affirmative vote of more than
75% of one House and a majority of the other House (“GNSO
Supermajority”);<br>
4. Approve a PDP Recommendation Without a GNSO Supermajority: requires an
affirmative vote of a majority of each House and further requires that one GNSO
Council member representative of at least 3 of the 4 Stakeholder Groups
supports the Recommendation;<br>
5. Approve a PDP Recommendation With a GNSO Supermajority: requires an
affirmative vote of a GNSO Supermajority; and<br>
6. Approve a PDP Recommendation Imposing New Obligations on Certain Contracting
Parties: where an ICANN contract provision specifies that “a two-thirds
vote of the council” demonstrates the presence of a consensus, the GNSO
Supermajority vote threshold will have to be met or exceeded with respect to
any contracting party affected by such contract provision.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
