NMS Services intends to initially limit registration and use of domain names within the .BOFA gTLD to Bank of America and its qualified subsidiaries, affiliates, and business units. This initial limited use will allow NMS Services to establish .BOFAʹs operations and achieve full sustainability. This limited distribution coupled with the other requirements set forth in Specification 9 of the template Registry Agreement is intended to exempt NMS Services from its annual Code of Conduct Compliance requirements.
After the initial stages of operation, NMS Services will evaluate whether opportunities exist to carry out the business strategy for the gTLD through expansion that continues the sustainable operations of the registry through fee-based registrations to parties other than Bank of America and its qualified subsidiaries, affiliates, and business units."[3]
