Class A Shares pursuant to a prospectus, and (ii) in respect of BEP, a vote in favour of the Simplification by BEP unitholders will constitute a vote in favour of BEP Inc.’s ability to conduct future issuances of BEP Inc. Class A Shares or securities that are, directly or indirectly, convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, BEP Inc. Class A Shares pursuant to a prospectus, in each case, without requiring further approval by holders of BEP Inc.
