In connection with the use or administration of SOFR, the Lender (in consultation with the Borrowers) will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Letter Agreement or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Note, the Letter Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrowers of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of SOFR.
Section 3. Prepayment; Repayment. Each Borrower shall have the right voluntarily to prepay without penalty or premium, at any time and from time to time, all or any portion of the outstanding principal balance of any Loan to it; provided, that accrued interest upon the amount prepaid shall be paid at the time of any such prepayment; provided, further, that if any principal of a Loan is paid prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor set forth in the books and records of the Lender and/or Schedule I hereto or any continuation thereof (whether by acceleration, prepayment or otherwise), such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ also agrees to pay to the Lender such amount as is reasonably determined by the Lender to represent the aggregate losses, costs, and expenses incurred or suffered by the Lender as a result of such prepayment.

If a Borrower shall be required by law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) such Borrower shall make such withholdings or deductions, (ii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the Borrower to the Lender shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4), the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. The applicable Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes payable or paid by the Lender.
4
To the extent the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or a reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made by or on account of a Borrower, the Lender shall deliver to such Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Lender, if requested by such Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will enable such Borrower to determine whether or not the Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. The Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall, upon the reasonable request from such Borrower, update such form or certification or promptly notify such Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.
If a payment made to the Lender under this Note would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if the Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Lender shall deliver to the relevant Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by a Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by a Borrower or as may be necessary for such Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether the Lender has or has not complied with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.
If the Lender receives a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4, it shall pay over such refund to the applicable Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower pursuant to this Section 4), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Borrower, upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) to the Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority.
Each Borrower shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender (and any permitted assignee lender (each, an “Assignee”)), and principal amount (and stated interest) of the amounts owing to the Lender and each Assignee, as applicable, pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the applicable Borrower, the Lender and the Assignee(s) (if any) shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the Lender or an Assignee, as the case may be, hereunder for all purposes of this Note, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. No transfer is effective until the transferee is reflected as such on the Register pursuant to this Section 4. The parties intend for the Loan to be in registered form for tax purposes and to the extent of any conflict with this Section 4, this Section 4 shall be construed in accordance with that intent.
Section 5. Covenants. At any and all times as the principal of or interest on any Loan evidenced hereby remains unpaid, each Borrower agrees that it will:
(a)[reserved];
5
(b)not amend or modify, or permit any amendment or modification of, its Constituent Documents in a manner that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Lender; and
(c)if at any time amounts in respect of unpaid principal or interest for any Loan to it evidenced by this Note become due and payable, make such payments in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 8.
Section 6. Representations and Warranties. Each Borrower, with respect to itself, represents and warrants on the date hereof and on each date that a Loan shall be made that (a) it has been duly formed and is validly existing; (b) it has provided the Lender with a true and complete copy of its Constituent
Documents as in effect on the date hereof; (c) this Note has been duly authorized, executed, and delivered by such Borrower and constitutes its legal, valid, and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and (iv) the effects of the possible judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental or judicial action affecting creditors rights; (d) its execution, delivery, and performance of this Note have been duly authorized by all requisite action and will not conflict with, violate, result in any default under, or result in the creation of any Lien on any of its assets pursuant to, its Constituent Documents, any applicable law or regulation, any judgment, order or decree binding on it or any material agreement or instrument or contractual restriction to which it is party or which is binding on it or its properties; (e) [reserved]; (f) [reserved]; and (g) assuming that no portion of the assets used by the Lender in connection with the Loans hereunder constitutes assets of (A) an “employee benefit plan” (as such term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) or “plan” (as such term is defined in Section 4975(e) of the Code) or trust or custody account therefor (or master trust or custody account therefor) subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, (B) a group trust, as described in Revenue Ruling 81-100 or insurance company separate account that includes one or more Persons described in clause (A) above, or (C) a partnership, insurance company general account, or other account or other fund that is deemed to hold “plan assets” pursuant to the Plan Asset Regulation of one or more Persons described in clause (A) or (B) above, then the transactions contemplated by this Note will not constitute a nonexempt prohibited transaction (as such term is defined in Section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(C) of the Code or Section 406(a) of ERISA) that could subject the Lender to any tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed under Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA.
Section 7. Events of Default. Any of the following shall, with respect to a Borrower, constitute an “Event of Default”:
(a)any representation or warranty by such Borrower hereunder proves to be untrue or incorrect in any material respect when made;
(b)any principal or interest, regardless of amount, due with respect to such Borrower under this Note is not paid, with respect to principal, on the date when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether upon maturity, acceleration, demand (subject to the last paragraph of Section 8) or otherwise and, with respect to interest, within five (5) Business Days after the date when and as the same shall become due and payable;
(c)[reserved];
6
(d)such Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any other term, covenant, condition or agreement contained herein and such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after notice from the Lender;
(e)an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be filed against such Borrower seeking (i) liquidation, reorganization or other relief in respect of such Borrower, or its debts, or of a substantial part of its assets, under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or (ii) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for such Borrower, and, in any such case, such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed for sixty (60) days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered;

For the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default with respect to one Borrower shall not, by itself, result in a Default or an Event of Default with respect to any other Borrower. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Lender may declare the entire outstanding principal amount of each Loan to the applicable Borrower and all accrued and unpaid interest owing thereon to be immediately due and payable by such Borrower; provided that if an Event of Default described in Sections 7(b), 7(e) or 7(f) has occurred and is continuing, the outstanding principal amount of each Loan to such Borrower and all accrued and unpaid interest owing thereon shall become immediately due and payable concurrently therewith, without any further action by the Lender, and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind, all of which each of the Borrowers hereby expressly waives.
Section 8. Miscellaneous.
Each Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind whatsoever. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of the Lender in any particular instance to exercise
7
any right, power or privilege hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof in that or any subsequent instance. No consent or waiver of the terms of this promissory note shall be effective unless in writing. All rights and remedies of the Lender are cumulative and concurrent, and no single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right, power or privilege shall preclude any other or further exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
Except as may be required by law, all payments to be made hereunder by the applicable Borrower shall be made without set-off or counterclaim, in immediately available funds and in Dollars at and for the account of the Lender.
Each Loan evidenced by this Note and all payments and prepayments of the principal thereof and any outstanding balance and interest thereon and the respective dates thereof shall be recorded by the Lender in its books and records (which may be electronic in nature) and at any time and from time to time may be, and shall be prior to any transfer and delivery of this Note, entered by the Lender on Schedule I attached hereto or any continuation thereto, and recorded in the Register in accordance with Section 4. The failure
by the Lender to make any such entries or notations on such schedule or in its internal records or any error in such a notation shall not affect the obligations of the applicable Borrower under this Note.
In addition to the other sums payable hereunder, upon receipt of written demand therefor, each Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which may be incurred in connection with the enforcement of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s obligations hereunder.
All notices or other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecommunications) and shall be mailed, facsimiled or delivered, if to a Borrower, at the address of such Borrower set forth underneath such Borrower’s signature, if to the Lender, at Brookfield Corporate Treasury Ltd., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, or in each case at such other address as may hereafter be specified by any such Person to the other party in writing. All notices and communications shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received at the address specified above, (ii) if facsimiled, when transmitted and (iii) if delivered, upon delivery.

THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each Borrower hereby consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding brought against it by the Lender by means of registered mail to the last known address to such Borrower. Nothing herein, however, shall prevent service of process by any other means recognized as valid by law within or without the State of New York. EACH BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES AND AGREES TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM INSTITUTED WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO THIS NOTE.

execution of this Note, each Borrower hereby submits to the jurisdiction of courts located in the County of New York, State of New York.
