Separation of Registry/Registrar Services: 

Following the Phase 1 deployment of the Shared Registration System, NSI
shall make a certification to the USG every six months designed to
demonstrate by means of objective criteria, which shall be
agreed upon between USG and NSI, that NSI is providing all licensed
Accredited Registrars with equal access to its registry
services. NSI also will by February 1, 1999, employ appropriate
safeguards, approved by the USG, to ensure that revenues and assets of the
registry are not utilized to financially advantage NSI's registrar
activities to the detriment of other registrars.
