The IETF has an Agreement with ICANN regarding IANA services  that is supplemented by annual SLAs, which can be found here:
http://iaoc.ietf.org/contracts.html

The IETF does not pay for services provided by ICANN for providing IANA services.  Neither does ISOC.
The contract and performance is overseen by the IETF Protocol Registries Oversight Committee, chaired by the IAB Chair.
