<div> Please take the time to research your 'facts' Microsoft's use of </div>
<div> resources is bound the ARIN policies and they did qualify per</div>
<div> needs-assessment just as any other transfer recipient.</div>

</div>
<div> I am not certain what terms and conditions parties would want </div>
<div> to bargain for, but if you can express them in clear language</div>
<div> we'd be happy to consider incorporating the terms into future </div>
<div> revisions of the LRSA,</div>
