PPML,

Please note that Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2020-8 will be revised to 
correct "contractural agreement" to "contractual agreement" in the policy 
statement upon the conclusion of Last Call.

Further discussion of this Recommended Draft Policy's merits are highly 
encouraged in this Last Call period.
