That looks weird. It's not only for that document.
All ietf99 meeting materials are mis-linked from "
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/99/agenda"; page.

In above text, we assumed that the payload encapsulated in the IPv4 tunnel
is an IPv6 packet.
So the source address of the packet should be an MN's address.

SL[0] must be original destination address of the IPv6 packet which the MN
sends out.
The SID which consists of the existing network tunnel info would be placed
at SL[1]. In case of that it means that the endpoint which the SID
indicates is egress of the SRv6 domain. If any other endpoints exist in the
segment list, that SID would be placed at SL[n] where n >=2.

As similar with UL, SL[0] must be original destination address. In DL
direction the interworking node must be egress of the SRv6 domain so that
the tunnel info encoded SID should be placed in SL[1].
