Is there a difference between the products, or is it just the Apache versus commercial license? Ie. will you be able, but not allowed, to view and make changes to the commercial product?
I can think of a couple of reasons why the company might suggest this; the most obvious being that they don't need to guess how many instances your enterprise is using. Whether it makes sense to you and whether the Apache license allows for that kind of legalese is still another matter.
[PS.] you might want to add an "Ask HN:" prefix to your submission subject line
