name is either already registered in the register of .uk.co domain
names or is on Net Registrar UK.COÆs list of reserved words; or if
in Net Registrar UK.COÆs, absolute discretion, it is of the opinion
that:
* the proposed name is obscene or offensive;
* the proposed name appears likely to infringe the rights of a third
party;
* the proposed name is, for any reason, otherwise unsuitable.

circumstances. æExceptional circumstancesÆ include, but are not limited
to, the submission to Net Registrar UK.CO of false or misleading information
by the Applicant in an application for registration of a domain name;
breach of this contract by the Applicant; situations where registration
would, in Net Registrar UK.COÆs opinion, put Net Registrar UK.CO in
breach of statutory or regulatory obligations or the terms of any
court order; or where continued registration of a particular domain
name would conflict with Net Registrar UK.COÆs policy on registration
and use of domain names in the register of .uk.co domain names which

be only be made available again for registration in Net Registrar
