I purchased an SSL cert through a hosting company for a client. Looking at the 
cert in their admin panel, I see the following:

1 key for example.com
1 key for www.example.com
1 cert for example.com
1 cert for www.example.com
1 cert for UTN-USERFirst-Hardware


I have a few questions about this:

1. Why are there two keys and two certs (for the main domain and the www 
subdomain)? My understanding was that you couldn't get certs for subdomains. I 
only purchased one cert; did the hosting company just purchase two behind the 
scenes as a courtesy so that both example.com and www.example.com would work 
with https (their price was sufficient to have included two)?

2. What is "UTN-USERFirst-Hardware" and why is there a cert for that?
