In Section 1, the last indented paragraph on page 4 says:

      However, the Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol is known for
      its subtle security strengths in that it is able to provide full
      perfect forward secrecy (PFS) and further have to both parties
      actively involved in session key generation.  This special
      security property (despite the somewhat higher computational
      costs) makes Diffie-Hellman techniques attractive in practice.

It should say:
