<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">Dear Michele,</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">After receiving the RrSG comments provided on 20 January 2016 regarding the Vox Populi request to amend its RRA for the .sucks gTLD(s), ICANN forwarded the RrSG comments to the registry operator.
</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">As you may be aware, Vox Populi and ICANN disagree regarding the approval of Vox Populi’s initial RRA amendment. ICANN maintains the RRA amendment is not approved, and Vox Populi maintains it is approved. Irrespective of
the disagreement, Vox Populi provided the attached letter to address RrSG concerns.</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">Attached to this message you will find Vox Populi’s response, the initial RRA amendment submission sent to you on 8 January 2016, and the RrSG’s comments.</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">The RrSG letter had 2 key points of concern: Point 1, regarding sections 2.1 and 3.2, and point 2 regarding section 8.4 of Vox Populi’s RRA. Vox Populi’s attached response proposes to address each point as follows:</font></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-0.25in"><font size="3">1.<span style="line-height:normal; font-family:'Times New Roman'">
</span>Amend section 2.1 to read as follows:</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1in"><font size="3">2.1. Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to permit and
<s><span style="color:red; background:yellow">promote</span></s><span style="color:red; background:yellow"> offer</span><span style="color:red">
</span>the registration of domain names in the Vox Populi TLDs and to allow Registrar to offer the registration of the Vox Populi TLDs in partnership with Vox Populi. Neither party shall take action to frustrate or impair the purpose of this Agreement.</font></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-0.25in"><font size="3">2.<span style="line-height:normal; font-family:'Times New Roman'">
</span>Amend section 8.4 to read as follows:</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1in"><font size="3">8.4. Amendment in Writing. Vox Populi shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to amend any or all terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any such amendment shall be binding and effective
15 days after <s><span style="color:red; background:yellow">Vox Populi gives notice of</span></s><span style="color:red; background:yellow"> ICANN has approved or been deemed to approve</span><span style="color:#3EB0C3">
</span>such amendment to the Registrar by email. In addition, any new services offered by Vox Populi after the date of execution of this Agreement and approved by ICANN may be subject to additional terms and conditions as may be established by Vox Populi, which
terms and conditions shall be deemed accepted in the event Registrar opts to offer such future approved services.</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">If the RrSG could please review the response and provide any comments to ICANN by responding to this message no later than 23:59UTC on [9 April 2016]. If there is no response by this time, ICANN will assume there are no additional
concerns. </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3">If you have any further inquiries, please let me know.</font></p>
