It might be clearer to illustrate all three paths individually (from RIPE NCC to LIR, Sponsoring LIR and End User). I also agree with what Tore Anderson and Richard Hartmann said about somehow clarifying the division between Sponsoring LIR and a possible Sponsored/child/sub-LIR under it. Sponsored/Sponsoring LIR is certainly easily confused, so Sub-LIR might be the way to go.
