STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

1.  **BACKGROUND**

    1.  The U. S. Department of Commerce (DoC), National
        Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has
        initiated this agreement to maintain the continuity and
        stability of services related to certain Internet technical
        management functions, known collectively as the Internet
        Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).

    2.  The Government acknowledges that data submitted by applicants in
        connection with the IANA function is confidential information.
        To the extent permitted by law, the Government shall accord any
        data submitted by applicants in connection with the IANA
        function with the same degree of care as it uses to protect its
        own confidential information, but not less than reasonable care,
        to prevent the unauthorized use, disclosure or publication of
        confidential information. In providing the tata to the United
        States Government that is subject to such a confidentiality
        obligation, the Contractor shall advise the United States
        Government of that obligation.

2.  **CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS**

    1.  The Contractor shall furnish the necessary personnel, material,
        equipment, services, and facilities (except as otherwise
        specified), to perform the following requirements without any
        cost to the United States Government. At the effective date of
        this purchase order, the Contractor shall not impose or collect
        any fees for performing the requirements under this purchase
        order. After the effective date of this purchase order, the
        Contractor may establish and collect fees from third parties
        (i.e., other than the United States Government) for the
        functions performed under this purchase order, provided the fee
        levels are approved by the Contracting Officer before going into
        effect, which approval shall not be withheld unreasonably
        provided the fee levels are fair and equitable and provided the
        aggregate fees charged during the term of this purchase order do
        not exceed the cost of providing the requirements of this
        purchase order.

        1.  DoC NTIA has a requirement for a Contractor to maintain the
            operation of the Internet by performing the IANA functions.
            In performance of this purchase order, the Contractor shall
            furnish the necessary personnel, material, equipment,
            services, and facilities (except as otherwise specified), to
            perform the following IANA requirements.

            1.  Coordinate the assignment of technical protocol
                parameters---This function involves the review and
                assignment of unique values to various parameters (e.g.,
                operation codes, port numbers, object identifiers,
                protocol numbers) used in various Internet protocols.
                This function also includes the dissemination of the
                listings of assigned parameters through various means
                (including on-line publication) and the review of
                technical documents for consistency with assigned
                values.

            2.  Perform administrative functions associated with root
                management---This function involves facilitation and
                coordination of the root zone of the domain name system.
                It includes receiving requests for and making routine
                updates of the country code top level domain (ccTLD)
                contact and nameserver information. It also includes
                receiving delegation and redelegation requests,
                investigating the circumstances pertinent to those
                requests, and reporting on the requests. This function,
                however, does not include authorizing modifications,
                additions, or deletions to the root zone file or
                associated information that constitute delegation or
                redelegation of top level domains. (This purchase order
                does not alter root system responsibilities as set forth
                in Amendment 11 of the Cooperative Agreement NCR‑9218742
                between the Department of Commerce and Network
                Solutions, Inc.)

            3.  Allocate IP address blocks---This function involves
                overall responsibility for the allocation of IPv4 and
                IPv6 address space. It includes delegations of IP
                address blocks to regional registries for routine
                allocation, typically through downstream providers, to
                Internet end-users within the regions served by those
                registries. It also includes reservation and direct
                allocation of space for special purposes, such as
                multicast addressing, cable blocks, addresses for
                private networks as described in RFC 1918, and globally
                specified applications.

            4.  Other services---The Contractor shall perform other IANA
                functions and implement modifications in performance of
                the IANA functions as needed upon mutual agreement of
                the parties. These functions may include the performance
                of periodic functions or supplemental functions
                identified by the Contractor as part of the six (6)
                month performance progress report.

            5.  Performance exclusions\--The performance of
                administrative functions associated with root management
                does not include authorizing modifications, additions or
                deletions to the root zone file or associated
                information that constitute delegation or redelegation
                of top-level domains. This purchase order does not alter
                root system responsibilities defined in the Cooperative
                Agreement, as amended.

> This purchase order, in itself, does not authorize the Contractor to
> make substantive changes in established policy associated with the
> performance of the IANA functions. Procedures for policy development
> will remain the subject of a Joint Project Agreement (JPA) entitled
> "Memorandum of Understanding Between the U.S. Department of Commerce
> and Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers" dated
> November 25, 1998 as amended. The JPA contemplates that the policy
> development procedures developed under the JPA may result in adoption
> of new or changed policies concerning Internet technical management
> functions. To the extent those policies require alterations in the
> manner in which the IANA functions are performed, those alterations
> may be implemented upon mutual agreement of the parties.

**3. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS**

1.  Performance Progress Report - - The Contractor shall prepare and
    submit to the COTR a performance progress report every six (6)
    months after purchase order award that contains statistical and
    narrative information on the performance of the IANA functions
    during the previous six (6) month period. The report shall include a
    summary of the major work performed for each of the functions during
    the previous six (6) month period, including technical status, major
    events, problems encountered, and any projected significant changes
    related to the performance of the functions.

2.  Final Report - - The Contractor shall prepare and submit a final
    report on the performance of the IANA functions that documents
    standard operating procedures, including a description of the
    techniques, methods, software, and tools employed in the performance
    of the IANA functions. This report shall be submitted to the COTR no
    later than thirty days after expiration of the purchase order.

**4. PERFORMANCE EXCLUSIONS**

1.  This purchase order, in itself, does not authorize modifications,
    additions, or deletions to the root zone file or associated
    information that constitute delegation or redelegation of top level
    domains. (This purchase order does not alter root system
    responsibilities as set forth in Amendment 11 of the Cooperative
    Agreement NCR‑9218742 between the Department of Commerce and Network
    Solutions, Inc.)

2.  This purchase order, in itself, does not authorize the Contractor to
    make material changes in established methods associated with the
    performance of the IANA functions. Any modifications in the
    performance of IANA functions resulting from policy changes
    concerning Internet technical management functions will be
    implemented according to SOW Section 2. (This purchase order does
    not alter procedures for policy development concerning Internet
    technical management functions set forth under the Joint Project
    Agreement (JPA) between DoC and the Internet Corporation for
    Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).)
