Yoshi,

Going back to the baseline text, it says:

   A PEMK is used between a PaC and an EP.  A PEMK MUST NOT be shared
   among multiple PaCs or EPs.


I think the intent of the first sentence is same as the second one.

So, saying "A PEMK is bound to a PaC-EP pair. A PEMK MUST NOT be shared among multiple PaCs or EPs." is more accurate.
