On the first page of their agreement with ICANN it specifically states on page one:

"(b) Statements made During Application Process. The factual statements
contained in Registry Operator?s application for the TLD, or made by Registry
Operator in negotiating this Agreement, were true and correct in all material
respects at the time the application was submitted to ICANN and are true and
correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement as set forth
above"

I don't think it was presented to ICANN that Mr. Lawley will have that kind of control over both "separate" entities

As a matter of fact on page 17 of this document he sent to the International Centre for Dispute Resolution he says:

"IFFOR was to be independent of ICM, and the two entities would share only one board member (myself, at least initially)."

He doesn't at all represent to them that:

"The ICM position on the board is the only position guaranteed on the board without term limits that cannot be removed under any circumstances by the Board. "

If that is true it would seem that his statement to the International Centre for Dispute Resolution in regards to his actual irrevocable limitless term role at IFFOR were incorrect.
