Perhaps appropriate phrasing would be along the lines of
"The rights to use the program must not be conditional,
except for conditions on uses performed in service
to any non-licensed party."
(Based on your other messages, you have a few goals in mind,
so this is incomplete. Maybe you need to tack on a few more
"except for" clauses.)
