In addition to the above information, registrants will be required to provide certain additional Nexus Information to their registrar. Except where it is noted below that a registration will be denied if information is missing, failure of a registration to satisfy Nexus will result in the name being placed upon a 30-day hold during which time the registrar will be notified and given the opportunity to correct the information with the registrant. If no action is taken by the registrar within the 30-day period, the registration will be cancelled and the name will be returned to available status. The registration fee will not be refunded. If, on the other hand, the registrar is able to demonstrate compliance with the requirement and the information is corrected, the hold will be released and the name will be registered.
