<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">There was an extensive walk through of Sunrise Registrations through the TMCH. Thereafter the following additional possible questions were raised for discussion by WG participants:</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in"><span style="font-family:Symbol">·</span><span style="font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt">How often are SMD files compromised and have to be revoked? How prevalent is this as a problem?</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Does this mean we have no idea how many LRP registrations were made available and in which registries?</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Is it possible to expand the charter questions to include some of the underlying TMCH questions concerning TM scope in the sunrise period? (1) When the TM registered in the TMCH database is a generic or descriptive word,
and sunrise is used for registering that mark as a domain name completely unrelated to the goods and service category of TM protection, is that fair for other/future/potential DN registrants? and (2) (related) Should Sunrise rights be limited to the categories
of goods and services of the TM? </span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Is there any evidence of 'gaming' e.g. of registering a number of valuable trade mark names under the sunrise period of marks to which they do not have a traditional legal claim?
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
