Bill - Voluntary termination because ARIN is in breach results in pre-contract 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 circumstances that result in pre-contract status quo, and additional ones could be added if the community wants such and the Board concurs. /John John Curran President and CEO ARIN
