As a company, can I purchase a single certificate for signing multiple Adobe AIR applications and versions of those applications?

I really hope I'm misunderstanding applying certificates to Adobe AIR applications. Certificates are expensive for my budget at around $300 or more last I checked.

Our Java code signing certificates expires in a month and we just renewed it with Verisign.
