Dear Sirs,

I am writing on behalf of the TLDDOT GmbH (the .GmbH top-level domain
applicant). 

We, like other parties that made comments, made own calculations on
potential refunds and figured out that at least between US$ 50,000 and US$
100,000 refund of application fees should be possible. That does not take
into account that there are huge synergies in the evaluation of the gTLD
(e.g. technical part) that could make up another US$ 10,000 per application
or more.

ICANN should refund these excess application fees to applicants in a timely
manner. 

An initial refund should be at least $25,000 per application. After the New
gTLD program is completed, ICANN should do an independent accounting to
determine the amount of the remaining portion of the refund.

Best regards,

Dirk Krischenowski
Founder and CEO
