If version 4 and version 5 have competely different codebases and were written by different people, then the author of version 4 can do whatever he wants. The licensing of version 5 does not affect his copyright. If the author of version 5 is the same as of version 4, and he exclusively licensed/sold the copyright to another company, then the license/sale may have had a term about the version 4 codebase. For example "Author will stop distribution of the Old Version and revoke all licenses to the extent possible". I don't know if that is the case, but I wouldn't be surprised.
