It is likely this was an allocation made under ARIN's multi-homed policy in 1998. In 1998, ARIN's minimum allocation size was a /19. Organizations approved under the multi-homed policy, at that time, were allocated a /20 and allowed to announce the /19. In 1999, ARIN's minimum allocation size was reduced to a /20. Organizations receiving allocations made under the multi-homed policy following this change are only allowed to announce the /20.
