This is a last reminder of the Address Supporting Organization Address Council (ASO AC) call for nominations for Seat Number 10 on the ICANN Board.

Nominations period will close at 23:59 UTC on 13 December 2015.

The ASO AC election procedures are found in Section 7 of the ASO Operating Procedures and are available on the ASO website at:

https://aso.icann.org/documents/operational-documents/operating-procedures-aso-ac/

Article VI of the ICANN Bylaws states that: “At any given time, no two Directors selected by a Supporting Organization shall be citizens from the same country or of countries located in the same Geographic Region.” The ASO AC selection for Seat 9 of the ICANN Board of Directors resides in the ARIN region, so nominees for Seat 10 cannot reside in the ARIN region.
