Definition
If the Quote refers to “PXL” as the licensing basis for a product, the calculation of the number of PXLs required shall be determined by multiplying the number of part numbers in the software times the number of locations in the software as of the date the software is first implemented for or by Customer (the “Baseline Value”).
Counting rules
PTC example: 10,000 part numbers and 4 locations are 40,000 PXLs. PXLs above the Baseline Value must be licensed; acquisitions trigger a good-faith renegotiation of the Baseline Value.
Floors / minimums
The Baseline Value is a floor: if PXLs fall below it, the Baseline Value must still be licensed.
