Which "above paragraph" is being referenced in the following excerpt from 
Section 5.3.1 of the Mozilla Root Store Policy v.2.5 
(https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/security-group/certs/policy/)?



"Instead of complying with the above paragraph, intermediate certificates 
issued before 22nd June 2017 may, until 15th January 2018, comply with the 
following paragraph:



If the certificate includes the id-kp-emailProtection extended key usage, then 
all end-entity certificates MUST only include e-mail addresses or mailboxes 
that the issuing CA has confirmed (via technical and/or business controls) that 
the subordinate CA is authorized to use."



I interpret that "the above paragraph" means the following paragraph:  "5.3 
Intermediate Certificates    All certificates that are capable of being used to 
issue new certificates, and which directly or transitively chain to a 
certificate included in Mozilla's CA Certificate Program, MUST be operated in 
accordance with this policy and MUST either be technically constrained or be 
publicly disclosed and audited."



Thanks,
