Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction or reductions in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if the Rating Agencies making the reduction(s) in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at its request that the reduction(s) were the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the ratings event) (the “Change of Control Event”). For the purpose of this definition, an “Extension Period” shall occur and continue for so long as the aggregate of (i) the number of Rating Agencies that have placed the Notes on publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade during the initial 60-day period as a result, in whole or in part, of the applicable Change of Control Event and (ii) the number of Rating Agencies that have downgraded the Notes to below an Investment Grade Rating as a result, in whole or in part, of the applicable Change of Control Event during either the initial 60-day period or the Extension Period provided for in clause (i) would be sufficient to result in a Change of Control Triggering Event should one or more of the Rating Agencies that have placed the Notes on publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade subsequently downgrade the Notes to below an Investment Grade Rating. The Extension Period shall terminate on the earlier of (A) the date on which the Rating Agencies that placed the Notes on publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade within the initial 60-day period referred to in subclause (i) of this definition make their determinations with respect to the impact of the Change of Control Event on the rating of the Notes, and (B) the date on which two of the Rating Agencies (if there are four Rating Agencies) or one of the Rating Agencies (if there are fewer than four Rating Agencies) has confirmed that the Notes will not be downgraded or are not subject to consideration for a possible downgrade to below an Investment Grade Rating as a result of the applicable Change of Control Event.

Section 2.13 Affiliate Purchase on Maturity

For purposes of this Seventh Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, Section 3.11 of the Original Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety with the following:

Upon payment therefor of an amount equal to the Repayment Price, and payment by the Issuer of accrued interest and premium, if any, such Securities shall be cancelled by the Trustee and a new certificate in the name of such Affiliate will be issued by the Trustee upon receipt by the Trustee of an Issuer Order, provided however, that such cancellation and reissuance of certificates shall be deemed not to represent a novation of the debt represented by such Securities, but rather such Securities shall be deemed transferred to such Affiliate and such debt shall continue to remain outstanding on the same terms subject to such modifications, if any, as may be agreed by the Issuer and such Affiliate in writing. Such Affiliate shall not be permitted to vote such Securities in connection with any matter put before Holders for approval, unless 100% of the Securities of each series entitled to be voted in respect of such matter are held by the Issuer, the Company or their respective Affiliates. Should such Affiliate and the Issuer, if applicable, fail to make full payment of the Repayment Price and accrued interest and premium, if any, on Maturity, then such Securities shall become due and payable as otherwise provided for but for this Section 3.11.

The Issuer or the Company (as applicable) will also (1) make such withholding or deduction and (2) remit the full amount deducted or withheld by it to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer or the Company (as applicable) will furnish to the Holders of the Notes, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Taxes by it is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by it. The Issuer and the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder (including, as applicable, the beneficial owners in respect of any such Holder) and, upon written request, will reimburse each such Holder (including, as applicable, the beneficial owners in respect of any such Holder) for the amount of (i) any Taxes (other than any Taxes for which Company Additional Amounts would not be payable pursuant to clauses (a) through (g) above) levied or imposed and paid by such Holder (including, as applicable, the beneficial owners in respect of any such Holder) as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes which have not been withheld or deducted and remitted by the Issuer or the Company (as applicable) in accordance with applicable law, (ii) any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, and (iii) any Taxes (other than any Taxes for which Company Additional Amounts would not be payable pursuant to clauses (a) through (g) above) imposed with respect to any reimbursement under clause (i) or (ii) above, but excluding any such Taxes on such Holder’s (including, as applicable, the beneficial owners in respect of any such Holder’s) net income.

At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable, if the Issuer will be obligated to pay Company Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that such Company Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Company Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date. Whenever in the Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), Redemption Price, Purchase Price, Change of Control Payment, interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Company Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 2.15 to the extent that, in such context, Company Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.15 and express mention of the payment of Company Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Company Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made (if applicable).

The Notes shall be defeasible pursuant to both of Section 14.2 and Section 14.3 of the Original Indenture.

[Reverse of Note.]

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of June 2, 2016 (the “Original Indenture”), as supplemented by the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 12, 2021 (the “Seventh Supplemental Indenture”) (the Original Indenture and the Seventh Supplemental Indenture together herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Issuer, Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (the “Company”), as guarantor, and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to US$500,000,000, all of which are issued under the Seventh Supplemental Indenture. The Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the holders of the Securities, create and issue further securities having the same terms and conditions in all respects as the Securities issued on the date hereof, except for the issue date, the issue price and the first payment of interest thereon. Additional securities issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single series with the Securities; provided that if any additional securities issued after the date hereof are not fungible with the Securities issued on the date hereof for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then such additional securities shall be issued with a separate CUSIP or ISIN number so that they are distinguishable from the Securities.

The Issuer will pay to each relevant Holder or beneficial owner certain Company Additional Amounts in the event of the withholding or deduction of certain Canadian taxes as described in the Seventh Supplemental Indenture. In addition, certain Other Additional Amounts may be payable as contemplated in Section 2.14 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture and as described in the applicable supplemental indenture.

The Securities are redeemable, at any time at the Issuer’s option, at the Redemption Price as described in the Seventh Supplemental Indenture. The Securities are also redeemable (1) in the event of certain changes affecting Canadian withholding tax, as described in Section 2.9 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, and (2) as described in any applicable supplemental indenture as contemplated in Section 2.14 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase the Securities at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

In the event of purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unpurchased portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer, the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Issuer or the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereafter or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or the Place of Payment, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder hereof or attorney duly authorized in writing, and, thereupon, one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in initial denominations of US$2,000 and multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Section, the exercise, performance or discharge by the Trustee of any of its rights, powers, duties or responsibilities hereunder shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable thereto.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
