Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 (this “ Amendment No. 1 ”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D previously filed on March 24, 2022 (the “ Schedule 13D ”) to reflect, among other things, (i) the removal of Brookfield Private Equity Direct Investments Holdings LP (“ BPED ”) as a Reporting Person, (ii) the addition of BPEG BN Holdings LP (“ BPEG ”) as a Reporting Person and (iii) the transactions described in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 1.

Information and defined terms reported in the original Schedule 13D remain in effect except to the extent amended or superseded by information or defined terms contained in this Amendment No. 1.

Item 2. Identity and Background .

Item 2 of the original Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented as follows:

(a) BPEG, a limited partnership formed under the laws of Province of Ontario, is hereby added as a Reporting Person. BPED is hereby removed as a Reporting Person. The original Schedule 13D is further amended to reflect the renaming of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. as “Brookfield Corporation”.

(b)-(c), (f) The principal business of BPEG is to serve as a special purpose entity for the purposes of making investments, including in the Issuer. The principal business address of BPEG is Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 100, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2T3, Canada.

Schedules I to IV hereto set forth a list of all the directors and executive officers (the “ Scheduled Persons ”), and their respective principal occupations and addresses, of BN, the BAM Partnership, BPEG and BBPL.

The Reporting Persons are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. The agreement among the Reporting Persons to file this Schedule 13D jointly (the “ Joint Filing Agreement ”) is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

(d)-(e) During the last five years, none of Reporting Persons and, to their respective knowledge, none of the Scheduled Persons, has been: (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors); or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which, he, she or it was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration .

The information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 1 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction .

Item 4 of the original Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows:

On September 26, 2024, wholly-owned subsidiaries of BN (the “ BN Parties ”) transferred to wholly-owned subsidiaries of BNT, a paired entity to BN (the “ BNT Parties ”), an aggregate of 10,317,747 Class A Shares in exchange for a cash payment of $250,000,000 (the “ Class A Share Transfer ”) and entered into financing arrangements with the BNT Parties pursuant to which the BN Parties transferred an aggregate of 32,271,082 Class A Shares (collectively, the “ Subject Securities ”) to the BNT Parties (the “ Subject Securities Transfer ”) in exchange for a cash payment of $400,000,000 (the “ Transfer Value ”). Pursuant to these financing arrangements, the BN Parties are obligated to repurchase the Subject Securities on September 25, 2025 or such earlier date that these arrangements are terminated in accordance with their terms, at a price equal to the Transfer Value plus a return calculated at a rate of SOFR+1.75% per annum (the “ Repurchase ”). Unless an event of default has occurred under the financing arrangements, the BN Parties have the right to direct all decisions to be made with respect to voting of the Subject Securities while held by the BNT Parties.

BN and BNT, a paired entity to BN, have further agreed (the “ Voting Agreement ”) that all decisions to be made with respect to the voting of the Class A Shares held by BNT and its subsidiaries (other than the Subject Securities) will be made jointly by mutual agreement of the applicable BNT subsidiary and BN. The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 to this Amendment No. 1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer .

Item 5(a) – (c) of the original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a)-(b) The information relating to the beneficial ownership of the Class A Shares by each of the Reporting Persons set forth in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages hereto is incorporated by reference herein. The percentage of Class A Shares of the Issuer is based on an aggregate number of Class A Shares of 72,954,447 outstanding as of June 20, 2024 and includes (as applicable) Class A Shares transferred to the BNT Parties as described in Item 4 and subject to the voting arrangements described in Item 4.

(c) Other than the transactions described in Item 4 herein, there have been no transactions by the Reporting Persons in the Class A Shares during the past 60 days.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer .

The information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 1 is hereby incorporated by reference.

BBU and its affiliates beneficially own all of the issued and outstanding class B multiple voting shares of the Issuer, which represent a 75% voting interest in the Issuer. Together, BN and BBU hold an approximate 91.2% voting interest in the Issuer and includes Class A Shares transferred to the BNT Parties as described in Item 4 and subject to the voting arrangements described in Item 5.
