Overcoming the CC lite Account's Automation flow limit

Hello, I have a premium account with a few lite child accounts attached to the premium account. The lite account can only have 1 automation flow, which I have already used. I want to know if I create an automation flow from my premium account for my sub accounts and share them with my sub account, will this automation flow be considered beyond that limit and hence, will not be activated? or is this a way to overcome the limit of the lite account regarding the number of automation flow these accounts can have?

Also, continuing with the same scenario, when I create an automation for the sub account - indicating that when a contact is added to my contacts , send a welcome email, will 'my contacts' refer to the sub account or the premium account, once its shared with the sub account.
