Enhanced Trademark Rights Protection in the New gTLDs

[Phil Nolt <Phil.Nolt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear ICANN representatives,



On behalf of Goodville Mutual Casualty Company, New Holland Pennsylvania, I 
write to express our support for the enhanced trademark protections  -- both 
the proposal for Limited Preventative Registrations (LPRs) and the "Strawman 
Solution" proposal currently being considered in connection with the roll out 
of the new gTLDs.  I feel both are  necessary to protect us as a 
small-mid-sized property and casualty insurance company.



The LPR protects longer range particularly with the situation of avoiding cyber 
squatters.  The Strawman Solution proposal had some short term advantages in 
extending the time but in and of itself without the LPR does not adequately 
offer protection we desire and need. The added LPR helps eliminate fraud and 
protects consumer interests in actually knowing they are on our web site.



Please contact me with any questions.

Phil Nolt, CPCU
