non-commercial domain name holders have registered domains in .org, and
indeed, .org is widely considered the default TLD for global non-profit
organizations.

recent years the registration of domains in .org required the payment of
fees.  The price of a .org registration has been regulated by the US
Department of Commerce.  This regulation led to decreases in the price
of .org registration.

existing .org domain name holders be protected against unreasonable fees
for domain name registration.  Many .org domain owners would find it
extremely costly to switch domain names, and are vulnerable to abusive
pricing practices of the .org registry.

how the existing .org domain name holders will be protected from abusive
pricing, after .org is reassigned.
