<div style="font-size:12.8px">Phil,</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px">Thanks so much for your feedback and for this line of inquiry.</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px">The notion of maintaining non-trademarked GIs in an ancillary database was based on an effort to find a compromise solution with stakeholders who expressed concern about keeping both types of IP records in the same database. Currently,
we refer to this tool as the "Trademark" Clearinghouse, so I think some feel that adding different types of IP records in the same database may send a mixed message on some level. (Of course, I defer to those who raised this concern because I do not want to
speak on anyone's behalf).</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px">There may be administrative and/or policy reasons (as you suggest) that would justify keeping things separate. The current rules permit Deloitte to establish an ancillary database, presumable for these types of issues, so it wouldn't
entail reinventing the wheel. In fact, this was one of the issues that led to me suggest <span style="font-size:12.8px">forming a small team on GIs to take a look at the issue and report back with some preliminary findings for the WG's consideration. I think
it would also help to get input from Deloitte on the costs/benefits of organizing things in this manner.</span></div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px">I hope this is responsive to your question, and please let me know of any follow-up questions/comments.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">For clarification, an important element of the proposal was not to have GIs recorded in the TMCH per se.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Rather, the proposal was to have a subteam consider whether the RPMs, as currently designed, afford protection to all GIs (as some GIs are not registered as TMs in certain jurisdictions), and if not, to consider changes to the RPMs to ensure
protection for this type of IP.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the outcome of that analysis is yes - GIs as a form of IP should be protected in new gTLDs, then a subsequent issue to be determined is whether GIs should be recorded in the TMCH, or an ancillary database maintained by the operator of
the TMCH, which is currently Deloitte.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Deloitte is permitted to maintain an ancillary database under the current rules.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So the issue is really about the RPMs and the protection of GIs (namely, those GIs that are not registered as trademarks, but are protected under national laws that do not require their registration on the trademark register).<u></u><u></u></p>

earlier today) if they agree that the Working Group will not be considering the question of whether GIs should be included in the TMCH. If that is the general view of the Working Group, then the next step can be for those in favor of including GIs in the TMCH
to work on a proposal that can be sent to the GNSO Council in respect of source identifiers (such as GIs and other than as registered trademarks) that may be protectable but not necessarily intended to be covered by the current scope of the TMCH. This may
take the form of a new PDP or possibly be a separate matter to be discussed at the appropriate time by this group.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
