Question: is that the Losing Registrar’s registration agreement or the Gaining Registrar’s? If it is the Losing Registrar, that could be a problem.

</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
The Gaining and Losing Registrar usually come to an agreement. BTAPPA was conceived as a partial portfolio from the Losing Registrar, so it is different. The RO isn’t checking, the Registrars would be making sure the notifications and agreements are completed,
then they communicate to the RO.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
In contracts there is already an advance consent of the registrant. Similar to the Designated Agent and resellers. But BTAPPA is not offered everywhere, so it needs to be allowed whether going in or out. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
The registration agreement (of the Losing Registrar) has to explicitly allow this so the registrant is aware this can happen to them.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
The IRT may be confused by the current language. We need to be very precise and specific with this text. Currently, do the agreements not prohibit transfers or do transfers need to be explicitly permitted?
<o:p></o:p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="circle">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level2 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
They may not be prohibited, but having it allows registrant to be more informed.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
I believe the language “agent of the Registrar, such as a Reseller or service provider” should be put on the registrant, i.e. as an “agent of the registrant”.
<o:p></o:p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="circle">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level2 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
A reseller can be both the agent of the Registrar and the registrant. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level2 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
This change of sponsorship is not initiated by the registrant, why the need to add registrant into this?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
Staff understanding was that if a reseller wants to change Registrar it must transfer the domains manually one-by-one, and that this WG wanted the BTAPPA to be expanded to allow this to happen in a bulk scenario, which is not currently allowed in BTAPPA. If
this is not the intention, please let us know.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
The current fast-track wording implies the RO is not allowed to do a BTAPPA unless there is a merger, acquisition, or similar. The concern is that even though the involved registrar/registry is agreeable, they may be running afoul of the RSEP. We want the boilerplate
language to allow agreeable actors to do what they want to do in the RSEP.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
We have done BTAPPAs before where we signed an agreement with the Losing Registrar that we would buy the right to manage the portfolio, therefore it was a portfolio acquisition and was granted by the registry. That is a scenario we have done in the past, but
that might not always fit or be possible. <o:p></o:p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="circle">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level2 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
As to the language, I would probably just expand on it where it says, where an agent of the registrant, such as the reseller service provider “acting under the authority or on behalf of the registrant”, elects to transfer…<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level2 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
I would be hard pressed to lose the last line, but I think we should make sure that it has language that basically states that this is the portfolio managed by an agent/service provider of the registrar losing those domain names, and is going to be transferred
as a whole portfolio. Where previously only entire portfolios were able to be merged, this is a partial portfolio transfer for that registrar, but a full portfolio transfer for that reseller or agent. <o:p></o:p></li></ul>
</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">
Perhaps updating to “Agent of the Registrar OR registrant” to account for both scenarios?<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l12 level1 lfo9;vertical-align:baseline">

These are voluntary negotiated transfers, so there doesn’t seem to be an urgency or emergency to reduce that time. Are there any objections to 45 days?<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo11;vertical-align:baseline">
BTAPPA is not initiated by the registrant but the reseller or Registrar, there is no requirement to inform them and no change to the expiration date. Consider that when deciding the number of days. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo11;vertical-align:baseline">
One month makes sense but 45 days is too long. Many registrars will provide multiple notifications to remind them anyway. If the bare minimum is only 45 days, that is too far in advance. The registrant may forget or disregard because it is so far out. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo11;vertical-align:baseline">
My experience with resellers is the notification is sent and most people do not care, they did not choose their Registrar to begin with. Most people do not read this.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo11;vertical-align:baseline">
In many cases, the impact on the registrant is negligible. The notification will more likely cause confusion to the registrant. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo11;vertical-align:baseline">
Some non-commercial entities are concerned about where their domain sits, so they need to be alerted.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo11;vertical-align:baseline">
