 Sunrise Charter Question 1. Its relevant aspect has been picked up in this discussion thread due to connection with the SubPro PDP Working Group’s referral.

<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The Sub Team Co-Chairs propose to include the following in the Sub Team’s report to the full Working Group at the end of its deliberation:

<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Proposal #9 is similar to the SubPro referral, but it did not garner the “wide support” necessary to become a Sub Team preliminary recommendation. This has been noted in the Discussion Thread

Q1, which is now closed. <span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">The Sub Team Co-Chairs suggest that the RPM & Sunrise Sub Team chairs respond to the SubPro referral, thanking them for the referral and confirming that the issue was discussed.

<p class="MsoNormal">The discussion thread for Q6 will remain open pending additional comments. In the absence of further discussions, it will be closed shortly per Sub Team Co-Chairs’ determination.

<b><i><span style="color:black">Suggestion to adjust the terms of the Sunrise Dispute Resolution Mechanism:

</span></i></b><i><span style="color:black">We believe that the rights protection mechanisms designed for the 2012 round have generally struck the right balance. However, we encountered minor issues related to the inability to consider “dot-span trademarks”

 in applying the Sunrise Dispute Resolution Process (SDRP).<sup>3</sup> We would recommend that ICANN adjust the terms of the SDRP such that a registry could treat dot-span trademarks as exact-matches when making SDPR determinations. The Working Group could

 also explore extending Sunrise and Claims services to domains that are exact matches of dot-span trademarks registered in the Trademark Clearinghouse.<sup>4</sup> This recommendation would not otherwise affect the requirement that Sunrise participants demonstrate

 use of the underlying trademark in commerce, nor the ability of registries to reserve names or designate them as premium.  </span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:1.5in">

3.  We use the term dot-span trademarks to refer to instances where the entire domain name, including the TLD, is an exact match of a registered trademark.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:1.5in">

<i>4. For instance, for a TMCH entry for WALMART the brand owner would be permitted to register both walm.art and walmart.art during the Sunrise period for .art, and would receive claims notifications for either registration.</i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">My opinion is that we have not heard the ‘wide support’ needed for sending these along as sub-team recommendations. Does anything think otherwise – or want to endeavor again on

 list to establish wide support? Is there promise for such support in the ‘operational fix’?
