The loss of revenue should follow a parallelism on the exact subject that is being lost.
So loss of revenue from restrictions why? restriction cause the loss.

Option A :- Incorrect
This does not follow parallelism and the right syntax is not obeyed. Stipulations by will be chosen over stipulations of

Option B :- Incorrect
Suffers the same fate as Option A above. It does not follow parallelism.

Option C :- Incorrect
Stipulations for is totally out of this world and is a bad English combo!

Option D :- Incorrect
This actually follows the right parallelism, but the sentence was flawed at the middle, the use of that were sounds tautological and it is not required, also makes the sentence verbose.

Option E :- correct
This Option is concise, follows parallelism and syntax.
