On 3 April 2020, ICANN provided PIR with two sets of questions. One set of questions are in follow-up to previous ICANN inquiries designed to further understand the proposed transaction and its potential effect on PIR and the .ORG top-level domain (TLD). The
second set of questions relate specifically to the proposed PICs. PIR has indicated that it is working to answer all of the questions from ICANN.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Many people have questioned the enforceability of PICs by ICANN. To be clear, PICs are enforceable by ICANN. Any Internet user may submit complaints to ICANN Contractual
Compliance. In addition, ICANN Contractual Compliance may identify an issue through its proactive monitoring. ICANN's follow-up questions to PIR seek to ensure that ICANN has a clear understanding of each commitment within the PICs, such that it could be enforced
should the need arise. The ICANN Board continues to have reservations regarding the enforceability of PIR's proposed PICs.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Similar to when voluntary commitments in the form of PICs were proposed by applicants for new generic TLDs, ICANN is providing PIR's proposed PICs to the ICANN community
with this public notice. Given the fast-approaching deadline for ICANN to make a decision to approve or withhold consent on the requested change of control of PIR, the typical 30-day public notice period has been condensed to seven days. We recognize the full
engagement of the .ORG community in PIR's consultation process, but wanted to ensure ICANN remained fully transparent in what is being considered, the concerns still present in the Board's review, and what the Board will be reviewing.

community but the world at large, Zoom has become a vital tool for many businesses. With this recent increase in Zoom usage, we’ve also seen a number of bugs, flaws, and security vulnerabilities come to light.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">However, it’s important to remember that almost any piece of software has bugs and glitches. What’s vitally important in these moments is how the software vendor reacts
to receiving such information. In this regard, ICANN applauds Zoom for their efforts. Every time a new vulnerability has been exposed, Zoom has reacted swiftly by releasing patches within a day or two, while remaining transparent about the nature of the underlying
issues.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
