[Owen DeLong]

This may be considered out of scope for policy and/or might require a combination of policy and amendment to the RSA, but here goes:

Template: ARIN-POLICY-PROPOSAL-TEMPLATE-3.0

	4.	Problem Statement:
		There is substantial discussion on PPML in opposition to Mike Burn’s proposal to allow leasing. This proposal is offered as an antonym for the consideration of those opposed to Mike’s proposal.
		This proposal would, effectively prevent all LIRs from engaging in leasing transactions or (sur)charging on the basis of the number of IP number resources issued.
	5.	Policy statement:
					Add to the appropriate places in each of sections 4, 5, and 6 a new section containing the following text:
No signatory to any ARIN RSA is permitted by policy to engage in a recurring charge for addresses or a differentiated service charge based on the number if addresses issued to a customer. Addresses must be provided strictly as part of a contract for connectivity services and the number of addresses provided shall not, in any way, affect the cost of those connectivity services.
	6.	Comments:
		a.	Timetable for implementation: Immediate
		b.	Anything else
