It is a type of insurance - if in some case the product would work in improper way and the vendor would be responsible for that, the CA paid compensation. The warranty amount it is also a way for vendors to show how reliable the certificate is: the higher amount - the greater commitment to the efficiency of solutions.

VeriSign - still one of the best recognized vendors - as the first company has crossed the million dollar warranty amount.
