| (1) | The possible decisions pursuant to a dispute before an adjudicator are limited to— |
| (a) | in the case of abusive registrations the refusal of the dispute or the transfer of the disputed domain name to the complainant; |
| (b) | in the case of offensive registrations the refusal of the dispute or the deletion and prohibition of the domain name from future registration; |
| (c) | a refusal of the dispute as the dispute constitutes reverse domain name hijacking; |
| (d) | cancellation of the disputed domain name as contemplated in subregulation (3). |
| (2) | If three disputes from a Complainant were refused within a period of two years based on reverse domain name hijacking, the provider will not accept any further complainants from the complainant for a period of two years from the date of the last decision, except on good cause shown. |
| (3) | In the case of abusive registrations, the cancellation of the domain name may be considered by the adjudicator when the complainant and a third party have rights or registered rights and it is a more appropriate remedy than the refusal or transfer of the domain name. |
