Dear Sir,

Re: Support for Group One's Registry proposal

We are writing to welcome the application for a new TLD being submitted by Group One Registry. Having reviewed a summary of Group One Registry's proposal, we believe it would be of substantial benefit to the Internet community and could stimulate the growth of services available on the Internet. We know and trust the sponsors of this application, and we have every confidence they will make a valuable contribution to the Internet's development.

Yours faithfully

(Signed)

Masashi Taniai
