   parameters it received from the server according to the ECKAS-DH1
   scheme from IEEE 1363 [6].  It conveys this information to the client
   in the ClientKeyExchange message using the format defined above.

Corrected Text
--------------
Actions of the sender:

   scheme from IEEE 1363 [6].  It conveys this information to the server
   in the ClientKeyExchange message using the format defined above.
