If it's Red Hat, then you should be able to negotiate longer support via your support contract with Red Hat.

Else, Red Hat is just another volunteer FOSS developer. They might be a big one, thanks to the money they make selling support contracts for FOSS, but unless you're paying them to fix things for you, they're a volunteer.
