<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"><i><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">The default rule should be a transfer lock following a change of registrant. However, a registrar should be required in a transparent manner, to enable a registrant,
upon request to opt-out of the transfer lock or to reduce the transfer lock, rather then leave it to each registrar to decide whether they will generally permit opt-outs. Nevertheless, each registrar should retain discretion as to whether to permit a transfer
even if the registrant has ostensibly opted out, for security reasons. A transfer lock should not prevent registrants and businesses from effecting bona fide transfers when necessary or desirable. There should be a fact-based rationale for the determination
of the length of the default transfer lock, whether it is 60 or 30 days, for example.”</span></i><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

providers. These negotiations have been ongoing for 2 years, including face to face discussions here in The Hague, and neither ICANN nor the CPs can say when (or even if) they will complete. It will be important that we understand the impact the lack of
