APPENDIX ‘G’
.NAME DEFENSIVE REGISTRATIONS SPECIFIC CONDITIONS
If the Order is a .NAME Defensive Registration, the Registrant, must also agree to the following terms:
1. DEFENSIVE REGISTRATIONS
Defensive Registrations allow owners of nationally registered marks to exclusively pre-register on the .NAME space and create a protective barrier for their trademarks. A “Defensive Registration” is a registration granted to a third party of a specific string on the second or third level, or of a specific set of strings on the second and third levels, which will not resolve within the domain name system but may prevent the registration of the same string(s) on the same level(s) by other third party applicants.
2. PHASES OF DEFENSIVE REGISTRATIONS
(1) As a Defensive Registration Registrant (“Defensive Registrant”), you hereby certify to the best of your knowledge that for Phase I Defensive Registrations (“Phase I Defensive Registrants”), you own valid and enforceable trademark or service mark registrations having national effect that issued prior to April 16, 2001 for strings that are identical to the textual or word elements, using ASCII characters only, subject to the same character and formatting restrictions as apply to all registrations in the Registry TLD. You understand that trademark or service mark registrations from the supplemental or equivalent Registry of any country, or from individual states or provinces of a nation, will not be accepted. Subject to the same character and formatting restrictions as apply to all registrations in the Registry TLD, if a trademark or service mark registration incorporates design elements, the ASCII character portion of that mark may qualify to be a Phase I Defensive Registration.
(2) Phase II Defensive Registrants may apply for a Defensive Registration for any string or combination of strings.
(3) Defensive Registrants, whether Phase I or Phase II shall comply with the following Eligibility Requirements, available at http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/name/registry-agmt-appl-03jul01.htm, the summary of which is as follows:
(1) There are two levels of Defensive Registrations, each of which is subject to payment of a separate fee;
(2) Multiple persons or entities may obtain identical or overlapping Defensive Registrations upon payment by each of a separate registration fee;
(3) The Defensive Registrant must provide the information requested in Section 3(i) below;
(4) A Defensive Registration will not be granted if it conflicts with a then-existing Personal Name Registration or other reserved word or string.
3. PROVISION OF REGISTRATION DATA
As part of the registration process, you are required to provide us with certain information and to update this information to keep it current, complete and accurate. You must provide contact information, including name, email address, postal address and telephone number, for use in disputes relating to the Defensive Registration. You understand and agree that this contact information will be provided as part of the Whois record for the Defensive Registration. You further understand that the foregoing registration data may be transferred outside of the European Community, such as to the United States, and you expressly consent to such export.
In addition to the information provided in subsection 1. above, Phase I Defensive Registrants must also provide:
(1) the name, in ASCII characters, of the trademark or service mark being registered;
(2) the date the registration issued;
(3) the country of registration; and
(4) the registration number or other comparable identifier used by the registration authority.
4. DISPUTE POLICY
If you registered a Defensive Registration, you agree that:
(1) the Defensive Registration will be subject to challenge pursuant to the Eligibility Requirements Dispute Resolution Policy (“ERDRP”);
(2) if the Defensive Registration is successfully challenged pursuant to the ERDRP, the Defensive Registrant will pay the challenge fees; and
(3) if a challenge is successful, then the Defensive Registration will be subject to the procedures described in Section 2(h) of Appendix L to the agreement of Global Name Registry (“Registry Operator”) with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”), available at http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/name/registry-agmt-appl-03jul01.htm;
(4) if a Phase I Defensive Registration is successfully challenged on the basis that it did not meet the applicable Eligibility Requirements, the Defensive Registrant will thereafter be required to demonstrate, at its expense, that it meets the Eligibility Requirements for Phase I Defensive Registrations for all other Phase I Defensive Registrations that it registered within .NAME through any Registrar. In the event that the Defensive Registrant is unable to demonstrate the foregoing with respect to any such Phase I Defensive Registration(s), those Defensive Registration(s) will be cancelled;
(5) The ERDRP applies to, among other things, challenges to Defensive Registrations within .NAME and is available at http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/name/registry-agmt-appm-03jul01.htm.
5. CONSENT
Defensive Registrants may be asked to give their consent to allow individuals to share a part of their space. For example, if you have filed a Defensive Registration on PQR (which blocks out ANYSTRING.PQR.name and PQR.ANYSTRING.name), you may be asked to give consent to John Pqr to register JOHN.PQR.name if he can prove that PQR is his name. In such a circumstance, you will have five (5) days to respond to a request for consent.

(2) You acknowledge and agree that National CA Domains cannot guarantee that you will obtain a desired .CA domain name registration, even if an inquiry indicates that domain name is available, since National CA Domains cannot know with certainty whether or not an application for a domain name which you are seeking is simultaneously being sought by a third party, or whether there are any inaccuracies or errors in the .CA domain name registration process or related databases maintained by CIRA.
(3) You acknowledge and agree that National CA Domains does not check to see whether the .CA domain name you select, or the use you make of the domain name, infringes the legal rights of others. We urge you to investigate whether the .CA domain name you select, or its use, infringes the legal rights of others, and in particular we suggest you seek advice of competent counsel.
(4) You acknowledge and agree that National CA Domains may be ordered by a court or administrative agency to cancel, modify, or transfer your domain name.
