Vint Cerf introduced a resolution for the payment of legal expenses and a second was offered by Michael Palage:
Whereas, ICANN has had significant needs for legal services during the months of May through September 2005, including general legal advice, the .NET RFP process, new sTLD agreements, and several pending lawsuits involving ICANN.
Whereas, Jones Day has provided extensive legal services to meet these needs.
Whereas, ICANN has received invoices from Jones Day totalling US$177,305.70 in connection with legal services provided to ICANN during May through September 2005.
Whereas, the General Counsel and the Chief Financial Officer have reviewed the invoices and determined that they are proper and should be paid.
Resolved (05.93), the President is authorized to make payment to Jones Day in the amount of US$177,305.70 for legal services provided to ICANN during May through September 2005.
