 directors meet without the participation of management and non-independent directors. The Hon. Frank J. McKenna, the chair of the board of directors, serves as the chair at such sessions (the “ Chair ”).

#### Communication with Independent Directors
Shareholders may send communications to the registrant’s independent directors by contacting the Chair, c/o Corporate Secretary, Brookfield Corporation, Suite 100, Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, P.O. Box 762, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3, Telephone: (416) 363-9491. Alternatively, communications may be sent by e-mail to bn.enquiries@brookfield.com . Communications will be referred to the Chair for appropriate action. The status of all outstanding concerns addressed to the Chair will be reported to the board of directors as appropriate.

#### Corporate Governance Guidelines
The rules of the NYSE require listed companies to adopt and disclose a set of corporate governance guidelines with respect to specified topics. Such guidelines are required to be posted on the listed company’s website. The registrant operates under corporate governance principles that are consistent with the requirements of the NYSE rules, and which are summarized under the heading “Statement of Corporate Governance Practices” in the registrant’s latest Management Information Circular available for viewing on the registrant’s web site at https://bn.brookfield.com/corporate-governance/statement-corporate-governance-practices .

The registrant is permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise required under the NYSE Listed Company Manual for domestic issuers. In particular, the registrant intends to follow the listing rules of the TSX in respect of private placements instead of the requirements of the NYSE to obtain shareholder approval for certain dilutive events (such as issuances that will result in a change of control, certain transactions other than a public offering involving issuances of a 20% or greater interest in the registrant and certain acquisitions of the shares or assets of another company). The TSX threshold for shareholder approval of private issuances of common shares is generally 25%, subject to additional shareholder approval requirements in the case of certain issuances to insiders, and accordingly, the registrant will be permitted to rely on shareholder approval rules that may be less favorable to shareholders than for U.S. domestic companies that are subject to NYSE shareholder approval rules.

#### Board and Committee Charters
The charter of the registrant’s board of directors is set out in Appendix A to the registrant’s Management Information Circular
