CUSIP: 46283LAA5

Section 1. Certifying Officer Identification

The undersigned, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ [Name of CFO — e.g., Rebecca Sung or successor], the Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower, hereby certifies, in his/her capacity as an officer of the Borrower and not in any individual capacity, and on behalf of the Borrower, as follows:

Section 2. Reporting Period

This Compliance Certificate is delivered for the fiscal quarter ended \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\, 20\\\_ (the "Test Period"). [Insert last day of applicable fiscal quarter — first testing date is September 30, 2024.]

For purposes of the financial covenant calculations set forth herein and on Schedule II attached hereto, the "Test Period" refers to the trailing four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower ending on the last day of such fiscal quarter (i.e., the last twelve months ("LTM") period ending on the last day of such fiscal quarter), unless otherwise specified. The financial covenant calculations and related data contained in this Compliance Certificate have been computed on the basis of such LTM period in accordance with the definitions and methodology set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Section 3. Financial Statements

The undersigned hereby certifies that:

(a) Attached hereto as Schedule I are the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement for the Test Period, including the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the last day of the Test Period and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the fiscal quarter then ended and for the portion of the fiscal year then ended.

(b) Such financial statements fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the end of and for the Test Period, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis (subject, in the case of interim quarterly financial statements, to the absence of footnotes and normal year-end audit adjustments, none of which are expected to be material in amount or nature).

(c) In the case of the Compliance Certificate delivered in connection with the annual audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20\\\_, such financial statements have been audited by Ashford & Mercer LLP (or another independent registered public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and are accompanied by an unqualified opinion of such accounting firm (or an opinion containing only qualifications reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), all in accordance with Section 6.01(a) of the Credit Agreement.

Section 4. Financial Covenant Compliance

Set forth on Schedule II attached hereto are reasonably detailed calculations demonstrating compliance (or, as applicable, non-compliance) with the following financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as of the last day of the Test Period. Each capitalized term used in the calculations below has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement, and each calculation has been made in accordance with the definitions, provisions, and methodology set forth therein.

(a) Maximum Net Leverage Ratio

Pursuant to Section 7.11(a) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is required to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2024), a Net Leverage Ratio of not greater than 6.00 to 1.00.

The Net Leverage Ratio is calculated as the ratio of Consolidated Total Net Debt as of the last day of the Test Period to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters ending on the last day of the Test Period. Set forth below is a summary of such calculation (with detailed supporting computations provided on Schedule II, Parts A through C):

(b) Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio

Pursuant to Section 7.11(b) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is required to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2024), an Interest Coverage Ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00.

The Interest Coverage Ratio is calculated as the ratio of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters ending on the last day of the Test Period to Consolidated Cash Interest Expense for the same period. Set forth below is a summary of such calculation (with detailed supporting computations provided on Schedule II, Parts A, D, and E):

(c) Maximum Capital Expenditures

Pursuant to Section 7.11(c) of the Credit Agreement, Capital Expenditures for the fiscal year ending \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ shall not exceed $\\\\\\\\\\. [For fiscal year ending December 31, 2024: $325,000,000; for fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 and each fiscal year thereafter: $250,000,000, plus unused carry-forward amounts (not to exceed 25% of the prior fiscal year's permitted amount).]

Set forth below is a summary of the Capital Expenditure compliance calculation (with additional detail provided on Schedule II, Part F):

Section 5. Excess Cash Flow Calculation (Annual Only)

[To be completed only for the Compliance Certificate delivered in connection with the fiscal year-end financial statements pursuant to Section 6.01(a) of the Credit Agreement. If this Compliance Certificate is being delivered in connection with interim quarterly financial statements, this Section 5 may be marked "Not Applicable."]

Pursuant to Section 2.05(b) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is required to make mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans from Excess Cash Flow for each fiscal year (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024), to the extent and in the amounts calculated below. The mandatory prepayment, if any, is due within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which the annual audited financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) of the Credit Agreement.

Set forth below is the calculation of the Excess Cash Flow prepayment amount for the fiscal year ended \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\, 20\\\_:

Applicable ECF Percentage:

• 75% if the Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year is greater than 4.50 to 1.00;

• 50% if the Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year is less than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00 but greater than 3.50 to 1.00; or

• 25% if the Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year is less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00.

For avoidance of doubt, no Excess Cash Flow prepayment shall be required if the Net ECF Prepayment Amount calculated above is equal to or less than zero.

Section 6. Representations and Warranties

The undersigned hereby certifies that, to the knowledge of the undersigned, after due inquiry:

(a) Each of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower, the Co-Borrower, and the Parent Guarantor in the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document to which any of them is a party is true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof (or, in the case of any representation or warranty that is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty was true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) as of such earlier date.

Additional detail, if applicable, is set forth on Schedule III attached hereto.]

Without limitation of the foregoing, the undersigned confirms that Thornfield Capital Partners, LP (or its Affiliates) continues to hold, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the issued and outstanding voting Equity Interests of Ironhaven Holdings Inc. (the Parent Guarantor), and no other person or group (within the meaning of Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) has acquired beneficial ownership of a greater percentage of such voting Equity Interests than that held by Thornfield Capital Partners, LP and its Affiliates.

[If any change has occurred with respect to the ownership of the voting Equity Interests of the Parent Guarantor or any other event constituting or potentially constituting a Change of Control, describe such change in detail below:]

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

Section 10. Material Adverse Change

The undersigned hereby certifies that, to the knowledge of the undersigned after due inquiry, no event, circumstance, development, condition, change, or effect has occurred since the Closing Date (or, if later, since the date of the most recently delivered Compliance Certificate) that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement).

Exceptions (if any): \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ [Describe any developments, events, or conditions that may constitute or give rise to a Material Adverse Effect, or state "None."]
