You can only distribute a licensed copy, which by definition is 
initialized by supplied key - the term licensee refers to one that has 
licenses(bought and used a license key to initialize valentina). The 
EULA does not include the distribution of an unlicensed copy(which the 
time limited version is) as that is not a part of the EULA and I think 
that such distribution is therefore not permitted.
