Parallels desktop 10: "You have reached the maximum number of activations available"

Hi all, exactly the same issue here. Just reformatted the HD, tried to reinstall parallels 9 and got asked to buy a new license because I have reached the (unspecified) maximum number of activations.. not keen to do that. Is there a solution? Cheers.

We have made changes to the activation key. Please follow the instructions below:
1. Quit Parallels Desktop, then try to activate after launching it again.
2. If you are still unable to activate, Open Terminal on the Mac and execute this command: prlsrvctl activate-license-online
