<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Under Deloitte’s new Trademark Registry Extension Service (T-REx), trademark owners with marks that have been validated by Deloitte can block registrations during General Availability across a number of domains.
The service is offered as a package (bundle) across a number of gTLDs (currently it seems to be US$160 per label for a bundle of 40 gTLDs, renewable annually).

was that responsibility for the MPML does still sit with MMX and the Nominet attendees in Puerto Rico would not really in a position to assist. I’m afraid I don’t know who to suggest from MMX, except perhaps starting with Michael Salazar.

documents that expressly permits, prohibits or otherwise addresses such use by registry operators? Are registry operators able to provide the same or similar Additional Marketplace RPMs without relying on the TMCH validation services or access to the TMCH
database? Will there be an increase in costs? If so, what will this be to stakeholders along the value chain (i.e. brand owners, registries, registrars, other registrants)?</i></span><o:p></o:p></li></ol>

RPMs, and, if so, in what ways? Is there language in the current adopted TMCH policy or related documents that expressly permits, prohibits or otherwise addresses such use by registry operators? Are registry operators able to provide the same or similar Additional
Marketplace RPMs without relying on the TMCH validation services or access to the TMCH database? Will there be an increase in costs? If so, what will this be to stakeholders along the value chain (i.e. brand owners, registries, registrars, other registrants)?</span></i><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- Extended Sunrise will rely on TMCH validation services. We don't really know whether there is increased cost of extended Sunrise. Extended Sunrise is not regarded
additional marketplace RPM. Nothing in the rules refer to the maximum duration of the Sunrise Period.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- We know the answer to the Sunrise portion, but we don't know the answer to the DPML portion.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- Extended Claims may be one of the additional marketplace RPMs. They have to use the TMCH validation. The main question is that whether there is any increasing
cost? Don't know anyone is offering the extended Claims service in some other way.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- Don’t recall any extended Sunrise, but for sure several registries have extended or open-ended claims.

</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- Challenge is to remember which additional RPMs we are talking about. One could ask question: if you have to run extended Claims, will using TMCH increase the
costs? Can they offer extended Claims services without using the TMCH? But they may not be very useful questions that lead us onto a fruitful path.
</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- Question is does Deloitte use the ICANN TMCH or the secondary system they stood up to offer other services. New as in a few years, but we have only heard about
it, no other intel, but can’t say for certain. </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">- Donuts (in its response to the WG near the beginning of our work) confirmed that it uses the TMCH, especially the SMD files, to provide DPML service. Staff have
