    You shouldn't have to but I would uninstall  One Care first, just to be safe.

    What you can do is remove the PC from your subscription by making one of the other PCs a hub PC, selecting manage your OneCare Circle, click details next to the PC you wish to remove.

    Then, go ahead and format.

    Note that, as Jim said, it is optional. If your PC were to die and you replaced it, you would be allowed to install on the new PC and activate with your subscription LiveID.
