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

The information set forth in Items 3, 4 and 5 hereof is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6.

BEP 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, and all of the issued and outstanding class C non-voting shares of the Issuer, which entitle BEP to all of the residual value in the Issuer after payment in full of the amount due to holders of Class A Shares and class B shares of the Issuer and subject to the prior rights of holders of preferred shares of the Issuer. Together, Brookfield and BEP hold an approximate 84.7% voting interest in the Issuer.

Brookfield, the Issuer and BEP have entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of July 30, 2020 (the Registration Rights Agreement). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer has agreed that, upon the request of Brookfield, the Issuer will file one or more registration statements or prospectuses to register for sale and qualify for distribution under applicable securities laws any Class A Shares held by Brookfield. The Issuer has also agreed to pay expenses in connection with such registration and sales and will indemnify Brookfield for material misstatements or omissions in a registration statement.

The Issuer has also entered into an equity commitment agreement, dated as of July 30, 2020 (the Equity Commitment Agreement) with BEP and one of its subsidiaries in the amount of $1 billion. The equity commitment may be called by the Issuer in exchange for the issuance of a number of class C shares of the Issuer to BEP or its affiliates corresponding to the amount of the equity commitment called divided by the volume-weighted average of the trading price for one Class A Share on the principal stock exchange on which the Class A Shares are listed for the five (5) days immediately preceding the date of the call. The equity commitment will be available in minimum amounts of $10 million and the amount available under the equity commitment will be reduced permanently by the amount so called. Before funds may be called on the equity commitment, a number of conditions precedent must be met, including that BEP continues to control the Issuer and has the ability to elect a majority of the Issuers board of directors. Pursuant to the Equity Commitment Agreement, BEP has also agreed not to declare or pay any distribution on the BEP Units (as defined below) if on such date the Issuer does not have sufficient funds or other assets to enable the declaration and payment of an equivalent dividend on the Class A Shares.

Further, pursuant to the articles of the Issuer (the Articles), (a) holders of Class A Shares are entitled to exchange their Class A Shares for an equivalent number of limited partnership units of BEP (BEP Units) (subject to adjustment to reflect certain capital events) or its cash equivalent (the form of payment to be determined at the election of the Issuer) at

any time and (b) BEP may elect to satisfy the Issuers exchange obligation by acquiring such tendered Class A Shares for an equivalent number of BEP Units (subject to adjustment to reflect certain capital events) or its cash equivalent. Consequently, as of July 31, 2020, BEP may receive up to 114,877,953 Class A Shares in accordance with the terms of the Class A Shares. On July 30, 2020, Wilmington Trust, National Association (the Rights Agent) and Brookfield entered into the Rights Agreement (the Rights Agreement) pursuant to which Brookfield has agreed that it will, under certain circumstances, satisfy, or cause to be satisfied, the obligations pursuant to the Articles to exchange Class A Shares for BEP Units or its cash equivalent. Consequently, as of July 31, 2020, Brookfield may receive up to 70,338,813 Class A Shares in accordance with the terms of the Rights Agreement. The term of the Rights Agreement is until July 30, 2027 (and as will be automatically renewed for successive periods of two years thereafter, unless Brookfield provides the Rights Agent with written notice of termination in accordance with the terms of the Rights Agreement).

Additionally, the third amended and restated master services agreement dated as of May 11, 2020 amongst Brookfield, BEP and Brookfield Renewable Energy L.P., amongst others, was amended on July 30, 2020 to provide that, so long as Brookfield is a party to the Rights Agreement, Brookfield shall have a consent right prior to the issuance by the Issuer of any Class A Shares, subject to certain exceptions.

The foregoing summaries of the Registration Rights Agreement, Equity Commitment Agreement, Rights Agreement and the Articles described in this Item 6 do not purport to be complete and, as such, are qualified in their entirety by the Registration Rights Agreement, the Equity Commitment Agreement, the Rights Agreement and the Articles set forth in Exhibits 99.2, 99.3, 99.4, and 99.5, respectfully hereto and incorporated in this Item 6 by reference.
