What happens if toolbox is not renewed

I am the (reluctant) administrator of a group of commercial Matlab licenses with some questions about toolbox renewals:
  • What are the consequences of not renewing toolboxes assigned to a user who rarely uses them, but who has a current Matlab license?
  • Will the user still be able to run shared code that calls for example out-of-date Simulink and the DSP System Toolbox? This will be an infrequent task.
  • What issues will come up for the user over the next few years if we continue to not renew the licenses?
  • Can I reassign an out-of-date license from one user to another? Say the DSP System Toolbox wasn't elected to be renewed in 2012; can it be assigned to a different user?

Here is my summary of Support's response, but readers please check with Support if you are considering discontinuing, in case the following information depends on your type of license.
  • If you stop renewing a toolbox, you must run the old version of MATLAB when you need to use that toolbox.
  • If you have a group license, it is possible to move out-of-date licenses between one user and the next. In fact I think this can be done via the License Center and the Assign/Unassign Products button.

I am not sure if old Matlab can run new toolboxes. You would want to email Support to figure out the costs.
they told me it cant run old toolboxes which i think is pure bullshit from their side
  • You can only buy toolboxes for a MATLAB version you own.
  • The toolbox version must exactly match the version of MATLAB used to run it
  • Mathworks only allows toolboxes to be purchased against older versions of MATLAB for a limited time. I do not know what the current limit is; it might be 1 year.
  • For the commercial/professional version, the minimum price for any of the standard toolboxes is $US1000. I do not know the exact maintenance cost for a toolbox, but on the order of $US150 per year is likely for the basic toolboxes. Renewing a toolbox 6-ish times would be about the same cost as buying the toolbox again.
For a toolbox is 16 euro , for MATLAB is 49.But since i have a lot of them it costs me renewal 415 euro for all -_-''
It sounds as if you are using a Student Version license. I do not have enough information about the pricing of Student Version licenses and renewals to make an assessment.
