I'm not proposing creating any new terms other than waiving a one-time
fee of $1250.  They would still be expected to qualify for their IPv6 resources
under current ARIN policy, sign the current ARIN RSA for their IPv6
resources, and, follow the same rules for any new IPv4 or ASN resources
they choose to seek. They would still pay the same annual fee for their
resources as anyone else.
