Not true.

5.1 Reporting. Client will notify Red Hat (or the Business Partner from whom 
Client purchased Software or Services) promptly if the actual number of Units of 
Software or Services utilized by Client exceeds the number of Units for which 
Client has paid the applicable Fees. In its notice, Client will include the 
number of additional Units and the date(s) on which such Units were first 
utilized. Red Hat (or the Business Partner) will invoice Client for the 
applicable Services for such Units and Client will pay for such Services no 
later than thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice.

As I read it, if you put RHEL on a box, I need a subscription for it.

YMMV.
