Subject: [THIN] Citrix licensing question

 

If a company owns some seats of CPS (lets say 50), and they let their subscription agreements with Citrix lapse, is the actual licensing and software still owned by the company?  Are they legally entitled to still use it with in-active subscription agreements? If so, what benefits are lost?  Access to upgrades?  Anything else?

If a year or more goes by without an active agreement, and the company decides they want to get the software under agreement, does it end up putting the company into a re-purchase situation or would they just be re-instating a subscription agreement?
