3. 2008 IETF Operating Results Nearly 50% of the IETF’s Revenues are derived from Registration Fees, while 14% are met by contributions from Meeting and NOC sponsors secured by ISOC. ISOC provides nearly one-third of the annual funding necessary for IETF Operations. Less than half of IETF expenses are for Meetings. Net Meeting proceeds are applied to other IETF responsibilities. Day-to-day Secretariat expenses (including IT), RFC Services, Tools and Administrative costs total over $2.5 million annually (plus immense volunteer time) with no direct source of funding. 3

4. 2008 Financial Results (Preliminary Unaudited) ® IETF beat the Budget for 2008. $313k under budget Meeting Registrations fell 6% under the 2008 Budget IETF 71 & 72 were very close to attendance targets IETF 73 was $115k (180 attendees) under the registration target Host and NOC Sponsorships reached record level - $616k ISOC secured all budgeted sponsorships for IETF 71 - 73 Receipts from Hotel Commissions greater than expected As a net result, IETF Revenues (Registrations, Sponsorships, Commissions) were only 2% below the 2008 Budget 4

5. 2008 Financial Results (Preliminary Unaudited) ® Expenses in most categories were under the 2008 Budget RFC & Copy Edit Services were 9% under budget (more efficient use of copy edit services) Variable Meeting Costs were 10% under budget (lower A/V, Travel, volume-related F&B) IETF/IASA/IAB Support costs were 25% under budget (conscious efforts to reduce telephone, travel, meeting costs; plus lower NomCom costs) IETF Trust expenses were $20K over budget (Legal costs: policy development, advice and trademarks) IETF beat the Budget for 2008. $313k under budget 5

6. 2009 Contingency Plans In light of the global economic uncertainties, the IAOC has developed a financial contingency plan based on a 15% and 25% attendance attrition, which will be evaluated throughout the course of the year. In December 2008, the ISOC Board of Trustees advised the IAOC of its concern and commitment to stimulate attendance at IETF meetings, and to provide a safety net for 2009 in the event of attendance shortfalls. The IAOC has used this ISOC commitment to hold the registration fee for IETF74 without an increase (registration fees for future meetings will be reviewed during the year), and to investigate other opportunities to increase participation in future IETF meetings. 6

7. Visa Issues Recognize it has become increasingly difficult to obtain visas to enter US, especially from China - We have requested assistance from the US State Department, but that has not been generally satisfactory Sometimes the problem is not enough lead time to process - Launching an Letter of invitation application separate from the registration process that will permit LOI requests at any time for any IETF meeting for which there is a venue One suggestion has been to reduce number of meetings in US - 2 US meetings currently scheduled for 2010 - Moving Atlanta from Nov 2010 to Nov 2012 - Substituting either Canada or Asia for Nov 2010 - North America meeting in 2011 will be in Canada We are also collecting data on failed applications to better inform us of specific problems. 7
