I bought EXS24MkII separately from a vendor in Canada.  I'm running 
Gold 5.5.1 and it works fine.

once you get it, you have to file your registration number with the 
site for registration and they will email you back a number.  I had 
literally bought mine 2 weeks after the support period ended, but 
they validated my registration.  Don't know if that's still the case, 
but if you're interested the vendor still sells on ebay out of 
canada.  

His listings mention "warehouse" in them.  I might be able to dig up 
an invoice if you want to pursue it.

On a better note, I upgraded my EMU1820M to an EmulatorX and it 
supports ALL Exs24 instruments.  So I no longer am stuck with just 
using Logic, but can move to anything that will support VST (i.e. 
protools with vst2rtas or my Steinberg stuff, Samplitude, etc.)  I 
migrated Old Lady to EMU format and it's wonderful :-) and plays 
nicely in ProTools.
