Licensor may revoke the license only as provided in Section 10.3 (termination for breach) or as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement.

Upon subscription expiration, Licensee's commercial entitlements—including repository access, Academy access, support, and future updates—end in accordance with the applicable Commercial Terms.

* use of separately licensed Add-ons.

Licensor shall exercise this right no more than once during any twelve (12) month period unless Licensor reasonably believes Licensee is materially violating this Agreement.
