Confirmed:

My boss got a call from an Oracle "sales representative" or something about getting our licenses - and we only use the default MySQL that comes with AMI on AWS.

Did Oracle say that your company must buy licenses to continue to use MySQL. Or they just selling some service/products?

IDK the exact wording but think those two options can be a bit hard to see when you have an eager sales representative on the line.
