NOTICE OF GUARANTEED DELIVERY
FOR TENDER OF EXCHANGEABLE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNITS OF
BROOKFIELD OFFICE PROPERTIES EXCHANGE LP
ON AN AS EXCHANGED BASIS
Pursuant to the Offer to Purchase by Brookfield Property Partners L.P. Dated February 11, 2019
THE OFFER EXPIRES AT 5:00 P.M. (EASTERN TIME) ON MARCH 25, 2019,
UNLESS THE OFFER IS TERMINATED, EXTENDED OR VARIED.
In accordance with the terms of the exchangeable limited partnership units (the “Exchange LP Units”) of Brookfield Office Properties Exchange LP (“Exchange LP”), the holders of Exchange LP Units (“Exchange LP Unitholders”) will be permitted to participate in the Offer (as defined below) by tendering their Exchange LP Units on an as exchanged basis. Exchange LP Unitholders tendering their Exchange LP Units on an as exchanged basis will be deemed to have requested that a sufficient number of such holder’s Exchange LP Units be exchanged as of the Expiration Time (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) for the number of underlying limited partnership units (the “Units”) of Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (“BPY”) to be purchased under the Offer, unless a notice of withdrawal in writing is received by AST Trust Company (Canada) (the “Depositary”) at the place of deposit of the relevant Exchange LP Units by the dates specified under “Withdrawal Rights” of the accompanying issuer bid circular (the “Circular”). In respect of Exchange LP Units that are tendered in the Offer on an as exchanged basis, BPY will return all Exchange LP Units in respect of which underlying Units (that would have been issued upon a conversion as of the Expiration Date of the Offer) are not purchased under the Offer, including Units deposited pursuant to Auction Tenders at prices greater than the Purchase Price and Units not purchased because of pro-ration. The consideration payable to the Exchange LP Unitholders deposited on an as exchanged basis will be determined on the basis of the number of underlying Units that are issued upon the conversion of such Exchange LP Units as of the Expiration Time of the Offer and purchased under the Offer. See “Offer to Purchase — The Offer” of the accompanying Offer to Purchase (as defined below). Alternatively, holders of Exchange LP Units can also participate in the Offer by exchanging all or part of their Exchange LP Units prior to the Expiration Time and subsequently depositing the underlying Units in the Offer.
As set forth in the Offer to Purchase (as defined below), this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery or one substantially equivalent hereto must be used to tender Exchange LP Units of Exchange LP on an as exchanged basis pursuant to the Offer (as defined below) if certificates for these Exchange LP Units are not immediately available or time will not permit all documents required by the Letter of Transmittal (as defined below) to reach the Depositary by the Expiration Time. This Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be hand delivered, couriered, mailed or transmitted by facsimile transmission to the office of the Depositary set forth below.
