<div>Hi Jonathan,&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For purposes of clarity, on your point 3 below, ICANN has already included some of the principles from Annex C into the PTI Bylaws. &nbsp;ICANN has, however, raised concerns about the propriety of including the specific language presented by Sidley that was
 within the Annex C chart, as reflected in the document that was circulated to the CWG. &nbsp;With that modification, your point 3 stands.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div><br>

 to implement Annex C (as described in the Implementation Proposal dated June 9, 2016) will be incorporated in the bylaws or the naming function agreement.&nbsp; Once this determination is made, we can ensure that the provisions are appropriately documented, if
 requested.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
