please help me understand a sentence
>A maintenance fee kicks in only when the number of installations reaches 100, or when more than 2 engineers need remote access to equipment simultaneously. The maintenance fee is your assurance fast support response time and proactive update services for the solution components for many years.
This is about a maintenance fee of a remote access product.
I don't understand the meaning of the second sentence.
The first sentence says you don't need to pay maintenance fee unless certain conditions are met.
It sounds to me that the second sentence says that you pay the maintenance fee to get fast support response and proactive update services.

What does it mean if it says "The maintenance fee is your assurance of a fast support response time ...".?
- Is this written for people who does pay the maintenance fee? (with more than 100 installations, etc.)
