beneficial ownership financial

"The information relating to the beneficial ownership of the L.P. Units"

Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.

plan of arrangement regulatory

"The Transaction will be implemented pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement"

A plan of arrangement is a formal, court-approved agreement that reorganizes ownership or assets of a company—such as merging businesses, exchanging shares for cash or other securities, or splitting off parts of the company. Investors should care because it can change the value, number, and rights of their holdings and is often binding once approved by both shareholders and a court, offering more legal certainty than a simple vote. Think of it as a legally supervised recipe for how a company will be reshaped and who ends up with what.

redeemable/exchangeable partnership units financial

"redeemable/exchangeable partnership units of Brookfield Renewable Energy L.P. ("BRELP")"

multiple voting shares financial

"will be exchanged for class B multiple voting shares of BEP Inc."

Shares that carry more votes per share than regular shares, giving their holders greater control over corporate decisions such as board elections and major strategic moves. For investors this matters because a small group holding multiple voting shares can steer the company’s direction irrespective of economic ownership, similar to a few people holding the keys to a car even if many others own parts of it, which affects governance risk and influence on value.

non-voting incentive shares financial

"will be exchanged for class I non-voting incentive shares of BEP Inc."

Item 1 Comment: Explanatory Note This Amendment No. 9 (this "Amendment No. 9") to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed on June 17, 2016 (and as amended through Amendment No. 8 thereto, the "Schedule 13D") to reflect the transactions as described in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 9. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to "$" in this Schedule 13D are to U.S. dollars. Information reported in the Schedule 13D remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended or superseded by information contained in this Amendment No. 9.
Item 4.	Purpose of Transaction
	Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows: On July 21, 2026, BEP, BEPC and Brookfield Renewable Partners Inc. ("BEP Inc.") entered into an arrangement agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to implement an arrangement (the "Transaction") to simplify BEP's and BEPC's corporate structure by converting BEP and BEPC into a single Canadian publicly traded corporate entity, BEP Inc. The Transaction will be implemented pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), and completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including obtaining the approval of the holders of L.P. Units (the "Unitholders") and approval by the British Columbia Supreme Court. If the Transaction is approved by the Unitholders but not by the holders of BEPC Shares (the "Shareholders"), the Transaction will still be completed except that the exchange of BEPC Shares (the "Share Exchange"), as described below, will not occur. A special meeting of Unitholders and a special meeting of Shareholders have been called for October 14, 2026, and security holders of record as of close of business on August 21, 2026 will be entitled to vote at the meetings.

("BEP Inc. Class I Shares"). The newly issued BEP Inc. Class A Shares are expected to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange. Following completion of the Transaction, and based on their current ownership and the aggregate number of issued and outstanding BEPC Shares, Class A.2 Shares and L.P. Units, (i) Brookfield and its subsidiaries are expected to own 305,366,071 BEP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 44.9% of the issued and outstanding BEP Inc. Class A Shares (and 305,366,071 BEP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 57.7% of the issued and outstanding BEP Inc. Class A Shares if the Share Exchange does not occur) and 30,014 BEP Inc. Class B Shares, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding BEP Inc. Class B Shares (which BEP Inc. Class B Shares will be entitled to cast, in the aggregate, a number of votes equal to the number of outstanding BEP Inc. Class A Shares held on the record date for determining the BEP Inc. shareholders entitled to vote at the applicable meeting minus 100), (ii) BNT and its subsidiaries are expected to own 15,242,422 BEP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 2.2% of the issued and outstanding BEP Inc. Class A Shares (and 5,148,270 BEP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 1.0% of the issued and outstanding BEP Inc. Class A Shares if the Share Exchange does not occur), (iii) Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. and its subsidiaries are expected to own 3,977,260 BEP Inc.

Further information regarding the Transaction will be contained in a joint management information circular of BEP and BEPC.
