i don't recall having to sign an LRSA, but they certainly do need proof that
you are the entity that holds the block.

if you are a legacy holder, and you want a dead simple way to sell off your
rights to blocks, register for the STLS, and get your blocks added to the
list.

(at the bottom)
this is also a good place to go if you want to buy rights to a block.
you can also solicit offers to buy from anyone on the list.
works well, and less dodgy-ness, since everyone on the list has been
vetted (to some degree) by ARIN.

to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up,
totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"
