Section 5.3 says:
Systems that process route announcements must be able to verify that information that they receive is acceptable according to policy rules. Implementations that filter route advertisements must allow masks or prefix lengths in filter elements. Thus, filter elements that formerly were specified as accept 172.16.0.0 accept 172.25.120.0.0 accept 172.31.0.0 deny 10.2.0.0 accept 10.0.0.0
It should say:

Notes:
the second network address has 40 bits (5 groups of numbers instead of 4-32 bits).
