What happens if someone modifies software under Fair Source License and redistribute it ? #2

Description

@dgpv

Will that person have the right to collect payments from the companies that use the modified software, and exceeded allowed user limit, or original authors still can charge these companies ?

What if the person does not simply modifies our software, but just takes a small portion of the code, and uses it in new product ?

Do original authors retain the right to charge companies that uses such product, on the base that it uses a portion of the their code, and therefore is a derivative product ?

Even if original authors retain the right to charge such companies, can the person who created a derivative product change the license to raise the user limit to one million users, for example ?
