REQUESTING A DOMAIN INDICATES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS: PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR DOMAIN SHOULD NOT CARRY ANY REGISTERED COMPANY/TRADE MARK THAT DOES NOT BELONG TO YOUR ORGANIZATION. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL SUCH REGISTERED DOMAIN ANYTIME. I - The party requesting registration of this name should provide the LB-DOM administrator via fax or postal mail with a signed copy of this form LBDR-A and a copy of the official company/trademark registration documents. Lebanese local registered company/trademark have priority within the .lb domain. (local registration documents and address are mandatory for .edu.lb, .org.lb, .gov.lb and .net.lb domains) II - If the party requesting registration of this name is other than the original company/trademark owner, the delegating party should provide the LB-DOM administrator via fax or postal mail with an official copy of the delegation documents or complete the special domain registration delegation section on this form LBDR-A . (official documents for .gov.lb registration should be typed on government official letter head paper and should be signed by a director general or a higher official with full name and position clearly specified) III - Domain names are registered on a "first come, first served" basis. It is not our duty nor responsibility to screen requested domain names to determine whether the use of a domain name by an applicant may infringe upon the right(s) of a third party. IV - The party requesting registration of this name certifies that, to her/his knowledge, the use of this name does not violate trademark or other statutes. Registering a domain name does not confer any legal rights to that name and any disputes between parties over the rights to use a particular name are to be settled between the contending parties using normal legal methods. (See RFC 1591) V- A requested domain name will not become active unless their primary and secondary name servers resolve for the domain. None active domains are tagged pending with a six months renewable expiry date. It is the responsibility of the requesting party to renew his registration before the expiry date or to inform the LB-DOM registry of the date of activation of the domain.
