Multiple subnets with relays

[David McKen]

If you have multiple shared-subnet definitions the DHCP server looks at 
the relay agent's ip and matches it up with one of the subnet 
definitions, once that is done then all subnets under that shared-subnet 
definition become valid for that request and normal "full-pool" 
mechanics take effect.

That is my understanding of the matter, thus far have a network of 10+ 
shared network definitions and this works great.
