Based on Oracle definition of Named Users below I would have to say in your scenario that 7 Named Users are required. I would think the Oracle auto-generated Users are somewhat of a gray area. Perhaps others can clarify.

In named user licensing, the license specifies a number of named users, where a named user is an individual who is authorized to use Oracle on the specified computer. No limit is set on the number of sessions each user can have concurrently, or on the number of concurrent sessions for the database. Named user licensing allows a DBA to set a limit on the number of users that are defined in a database (LICENSE_MAX_USERS), including users connected via database links. Once this limit is reached, no one can create a new user. This mechanism assumes that each person accessing the database has a unique user name in the database and that no two (or more) people share a user name.

The last quote I received had a minimum of 10 named users.

Thanks folks for your replies on my initial query. Just to clarify by
example, how many named user licences would I need for a database with
following users. Forgetting minimum purchase requirements I suspect
it's 3
is this correct?
