assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by email (in “portable document format”) shall be deemed to be the original signature page for all purposes.

I, [                    ], am a
Responsible Officer of the Company. I have reviewed the provisions of the Credit Documents which are relevant to the furnishing of this Drawdown Certificate. To the extent that this Drawdown Certificate evidences, attests or confirms compliance with
any covenants, representations, warranties or conditions precedent provided for in the Credit Documents, I have made such examination or investigation as was, in my opinion, reasonably necessary to enable me to express an informed opinion as to
whether such covenants, representations, warranties or conditions have been complied with. This Drawdown Certificate relates to a Credit Event to take place on the date specified above as the “Drawdown Date” (the “Drawdown
