A: Annual subscriptions that are purchased during a given month are charged immediately for a full year and are valid for a full year. So, you can modify the number of licenses only in the current month of purchase (they are valid for one year and charged for one year). Outside of the month of purchase, it's no longer possible to increase the number of subscriptions.
