Thanks for the specificity David!

Per this and additional private commentary, I'd suggest we 
keep it simple to speak directly to the matters within the 
section where the change is made (8.2 transfers) and therefore 
add the following to section 8.2:

"M&A activity resulting in the surviving legal entity which 
 is not incorporated in the ARIN service region will be 
 permitted to hold only their existing number resources 
 directly allocated or assigned by ARIN."

Would that address the desire for clarification?

Do the previous existing supporters, detractors or those 
who held neutral opinions have further input?

Thanks!

Joe
