You don't lose your Softimage license when you chose to change to Maya & 
Softimage package and AFAIK you won't lose it as long as you have activated 
those licenses and stay on maintenance or even change to subscription.

We have all our licenses like that, with Maya, and still using Softimage. 
Curiously I have yet to install Maya 2017 and we already have a 2018.
