Hi,

I'm no expert but if your registrar paid Cira for a ten year registration,
you should be alright.  If on the other hand, your registrar pays year by
year and takes the cost of a ten year registration from you up-front, there
might be a problem.  Which way your registrar operates is usually stated in
the book they call the terms of service.

Cheers,
Shane
