> Policy statement:
> Modify section 4.6 as follows:
> 
> 4.6 Amnesty Requests
> ARIN will accept the return or relinquishment of any address space
> from any existing address holder. If the address holder wishes to
> aggregate into a single block, ARIN may work with the address holder
> to arrive at an allocation or assignment which is equal to or smaller
> than the sum of their existing blocks and which best meets the needs
> of the existing holder and the community. There shall be no fee for
> returning addresses under this policy.  Further, organizations
> returning addresses under this policy shall receive the following
> benefits:
> 
> 1. If the organization does not currently pay ARIN
> fees, they shall remain fee exempt.
> 
> 2. If the organization currently pays ARIN fees,
> their fees shall be waived for two years for
> each /20 equivalent returned, with any fractional /20
> equivalent resulting in a one-time single year waiver.
> 
> 3. Any organization returning address space under
> this policy shall continue under their existing
> RSA or they may choose to sign the current RSA.
> For organizations which currently do not
> have an RSA, they may sign the current RSA, or,
> they may choose to remain without an RSA.
> 
> 4. All organizations returning space under this
> policy shall, if they meet other eligibility
> requirements and so request, obtain an
> appropriate IPv6 end-user assignment
> or ISP allocation as applicable, with no fees
> for the first 5 years.  Organizations electing
> to receive IPv6 allocation/assignment under
> this provision must sign a current RSA and
> must agree that all of their IPv4 resources are
> henceforth subject to the RSA. Organizations
> taking this election shall be subject to end-user
> fees for their IPv4 resources not previously
> under an ARIN RSA.  If they are already an
> ARIN subscriber, then IPv4 resources
> affected by this process may, instead,  be added to
> their existing subscriber agreement at the
> address holder's discretion.
> 
> Rationale:
> 
> The current amnesty policy does a nice job of facilitating
> aggregation, which was the intent when it was drafted.  However,
> as we approach IPv4 free-space exhaustion, the community now
> has an additional need to facilitate address reclamation.
> 
> A very high percentage of underutilized space is in the hands of
> legacy holders who currently have no benefit to joining the ARIN
> process.  Further, there is an unfortunate perception that doing
> so will require force the legacy holder into certain future
> disadvantages.
> This proposal attempts to resolve both of those issues while also
> providing some incentive to legacy organizations to start using
> IPv6 resources and bring their IPv4 resources into the ARIN
> process.
> 
> This policy attempts to provide some benefit and remove most of
> the costs of making partial IPv4 returns.  It also attempts to
> provide an incentive for these IPv4 holders to join the ARIN
> process.
