As I understand this model is only good for net new SLES 10 purchases. An
you can install 8-10 under that agreement. If you have been using SLES 9
then the 2 and under and 16 and under is still valid. I just check it
earlier for a customer but it is very new so it might change. Even the
official price list has the SLES 9 previous license structure.

The only "license" anyone can *buy* for SLES is upgrade protection so when
someone talks about buying further licences it stands to reason that's
what they mean. Either way, the original answer was correct in all
respects so it seemed odd that you found it necessary to follow-up.
In regard to counting physical CPUs, I have been led to believe x86(_64)
SLES subscriptions are now sold on a per-server basis (at least up to 32
CPU sockets). This applies to all current SLES editions, 8 through 10, and
strikes me as a welcome development.
