From: InterNetX - Marco Hoffmann Sent: Wednesday, 17 October 2012 10:55 PM To: paul.szyndler@auda.org.au Cc: InterNetX - Karin Simka Subject: Industry Advisory Panel Recommendation To the auDA 2012 Industry Advisory Panel, Please accept this response in support of Draft Recommendation 1A which refers to the method of 2LD registry operator selection/ appointment post-2014. InterNetX, an accredited .au Registrar since 2009, believe the extension of contractual arrangements with AusRegistry for an additional 4-year term is appropriate and warranted. We value our relationship with the current Registry Operator and do not support a change post- 2014. Thank you for your time. Marco Hoffmann Head of Domain Services
