the products that are to become the subject of an assignment round.

(8) Two or more products may be the subject of a given assignment round. A product must not be the subject of more than one assignment round.

Part 3—Bidding in the assignment stage

      4 Frequency range options in assignment rounds

(1) Bidding in an assignment round is only open to bidders who were allocated, in the primary stage or secondary stage, at least one lot of a product that is the subject of the assignment round.

(2) Subject to subclauses (3) and (4), for each product, the auction manager must determine a list of frequency range options available to each bidder so that:
(a)      the frequency range included within each option for a bidder is a contiguous frequency range corresponding in bandwidth to the total size of the lots of the product that the bidder was allocated in the primary stage or secondary stage; and
(b)      for each option in the list of frequency range options, there exists at least one frequency range option for every other bidder so that:
(i)            each bidder's frequency range complies with paragraph (a); and
(ii)         none of the frequency ranges overlap.

(3) If some lots of a product were not allocated in the primary stage or secondary stage (if any), the auction manager must, in determining the frequency range options available to each bidder, ensure that the frequency range assigned to:
(a)      the unallocated lots of the product, other than the lower band products, will be a contiguous frequency range corresponding in bandwidth to the total size of those unallocated lots and adjacent to the frequency 27.5 GHz;
(b)      the unallocated lots of any one of the lower band products will be a contiguous frequency range corresponding in bandwidth to the total size of the unallocated lots of that product.
(4) For each upper band product, if, in the primary stage or secondary stage:
         (a)      one or more lots of the upper band product (the upper band lots); and
         (b)      one or more lots of the related lower band product (the lower band lots);
were allocated to a bidder, the auction manager must, in determining the frequency range options available to each bidder:
         (c)      if only one bidder was allocated lower band lots and upper band lots, ensure that the frequency ranges assigned to the lower band lots and the upper band lots will each be a contiguous frequency range corresponding in bandwidth to the size of the lower band lots and the upper band lots, as the case may be, and be adjacent to each other;
         (d)      if two or more bidders were allocated lower band lots and upper band lots,
