Voluntary termination because ARIN is in breach results in pre-contract=20
status quo, otherwise you are correct. Changing this would be a useful
item to discuss at the Public Policy & Members meeting in one of the open=

mike sessions, or to submit to the suggestion process for discussion on
the arin-consult mailing list <https://www.arin.net/participate/acsp>
The last round of improvements to the LRSA (version 2.0) added several=20
circumstances that result in pre-contract status quo, and additional=20
ones could be added if the community wants such and the Board concurs.
