The code here is the last EPPlus version under LGPL where the target framework has been changed to 2.0 instead of 3.5. Currently only EPPlus.dll (core) has been updated.
EPPlus will from version 5 switch license from LGPL to Polyform Noncommercial 1.0.0 license.
With the new license EPPlus is still free to use in some cases, but will require a commercial license to be used in a commercial business.
