There is: Red Hat
They have this "RHEL 6 EUS". Close enough to CentOS 6 to qualify.

It is your only reliable option. And you will need to be running RHEL for it to be of use : they will not support a CentOS system as a RHEL EUS.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
