 invest) could result in a direct or indirect financial benefit to such Brookfield Account which would not have otherwise obtained. In addition, Brookfield Accounts and other consortium members could dispose of their interests in applicable investments at different times and on different terms than our group (or a Brookfield Account in which we invest), including in situations where Brookfield Accounts facilitated an investment with a view to reselling their portion of such investment to third-parties following the closing of the transaction (which could, in certain situations, result in the Brookfield Account receiving compensation for (or related to) such sale) or where Brookfield Accounts and/or such consortium members seek to reallocate capital to other opportunities, de-risk of exposures, or otherwise manage their investments differently than our group (or a Brookfield Account in which we invest), which could have an adverse effect on the value and/or liquidity of the investment of our group (or of a Brookfield Account in which we invest). In any such circumstances, such Brookfield Accounts or other consortium members will likely sell interests at different values, and possibly higher values, than our group (or a Brookfield Account in which we invest) will be able to when disposing of the applicable investment. Where our group (or a Brookfield Account in which we invest) invests alongside another Brookfield Account, our group (or a Brookfield Account in which we invest) may desire to manage its investment differently than such Brookfield Account, but may be restrained from doing so because of the Brookfield Account.

Moreover, from time to time, we, a Brookfield Account in which we are invested, and/or another Brookfield Account could jointly acquire a portfolio of assets with a view to dividing up the assets between them in accordance with their investment mandates. In addition, as noted above, certain investments by our group (or Brookfield Accounts in which we invest) will be part of broader transactions that, among others, involve Brookfield obtaining, for little or no consideration, additional client accounts in respect of which it will provide advisory, operational and other services in respect of assets held by such accounts. In this circumstance, Brookfield will determine the terms and conditions relating to the investment, including the purchase price associated with each asset, which price may not represent the price we (or a Brookfield Account in which we are invested) would have paid if the transaction had involved the acquisition only of the assets we (or the Brookfield Account in which we are invested) ultimately retain and/or if the broader transaction did not involve Brookfield obtaining additional client
