[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2019-12: M&A Legal Jurisdiction Exclusion

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

Could someone willing to have resources form ARIN, create a company in US, subsidiary of a company in another RIR, justify the need, get the resources, close the US company, and following this policy keep the ARIN resources?

I still think that ARIN-2019-10 (Inter-RIR M&A) makes more sense than this one.

Jordi

    Allowing entities outside the ARIN region to continue holding addresses originally assigned to an ARIN-region organization to which the non-ARIN-region entity is a legal successor seems reasonable to me, and less fraught than allowing IPv6 and IPv4 waitlist space to be M&A transferred to another RIR. 
    
    Support.
