In May 2013, FairWinds submitted public comments to ICANN on behalf of 16 brand owners advocating for a second template draft new [[TLD]] [[Registry Agreement]] that recognized the unique requirements of branded TLDs. It was argued that creating a standard contract for them would speed up the contracting process and help introduce new business models to the domain name space more quickly.<ref>[http://www.fairwindspartners.com/Our-Resources/FairWinds-in-the-Press/2013/Brand-Owners-Continue-Push-for-Separate-Contract-for-Brand-New-Top-Level-Domains/ Brand Owners continue push for separate contract for brand new top level domains] FairWinds website, Published May 22 2013 & retrieved 3rd December 2014.</ref>
