<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">We received a copy of the Post-Transition IANA (PTI) document for discussion dated May 24, 2016. We note that the document contemplates two contracts where we had expected a single contract.
Specifically, page 4 of the document refers to a naming function contract and an intercompany services agreement – the latter covers staffing, other resources and funding of PTI. We expected all of these concepts to be addressed in the single ICANN-PTI Contract
that is contemplated by the CWG Proposal, and that is addressed in Section 16.3 of the draft ICANN bylaws. We would suggest combining them. This will allow Section 16.3 of the draft ICANN bylaws to appropriately address all the relevant ICANN-PTI obligations.
We are flagging this issue for your consideration. Please let us know if you would like to discuss.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
