Additional Information
- ICANN staff determined that it was premature to set forth a "final" agreement.

- It was later resolved that delegation of additional ccTLDs would only be established upon Board approval of stable and appropriate agreements between ICANN and the ccTLDs as recorded in the 25 September 2000 Resolution 00.75, available at: http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/minutes-25sep00.htm.
