If you have a more recent UNIX source license, e.g. some release of
UNIX System V, a site with a 6th Edition UNIX source license is
allowed to send their sources to you.

As to transferring source licenses, it certainly can be done within
a single licensed organization.  You should call AT&T Software Sales
and Licensing (800-828-UNIX) for information about such arrangements.
