Excerpted from applicant response to question # 18 in TLD application:
".SITE (Arabic IDN) will be an open TLD, generally available to all registrants (except in the Sunrise period).
In general, domains will be offered for periods of one to ten years, but no greater than ten years. Initial registrations made in the Sunrise period may have a minimum number of years required.
