#### The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" each of the nominees named in the proxy statement.
The Meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format only. Stockholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person. In order to participate in and vote at the Meeting, stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 10, 2026 (the "Record Date") need to register for the Meeting.

If you hold shares of the Fund's common stock ("Shares") directly with the Fund's transfer agent and wish to attend and vote at the Meeting, please send an email including your full name and address to the Fund's proxy solicitor, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC ("Equiniti"), at attendameeting@equiniti.com with "**Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc. virtual meeting**" in the subject line. After receiving this information, Equiniti will then email you the virtual meeting access information and instructions for voting during the Meeting. If you hold Shares beneficially through a broker, bank or other nominee, you will receive information regarding how to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee to cast your vote. If you wish to attend and vote at the Meeting, you must first obtain a legal proxy from your financial intermediary reflecting the Fund's name, the number of Shares you held as of the Record Date, as well as your name and address. You may forward an email from your intermediary containing the legal proxy or attach an image of the legal proxy via email to attendameeting@equiniti.com with "Legal Proxy" in the subject line. After receiving this information, Equiniti will then email you the virtual meeting access information and instructions for voting during the Meeting.

Stockholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. You are being asked to participate at the Meeting either virtually or by proxy. If you attend the Meeting and are a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the Record Date, you may vote your Shares at the Meeting. Regardless of whether you plan to attend the Meeting, please complete, date, sign and return promptly in the enclosed envelope the accompanying proxy. This is important to ensure a quorum at the Meeting.

#### YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. PLEASE AUTHORIZE A PROXY TO VOTE YOUR SHARES PROMPTLY, NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU OWN.

#### BROOKFIELD REAL ASSETS INCOME FUND INC.<br> 225 Liberty Street, 35 <sup>th</sup> Floor<br>New York, New York 10281

#### PROXY STATEMENT
This Proxy Statement is furnished to the holders of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Shares"), of Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Fund"), to solicit proxies to be exercised at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Meeting") of the Fund to be held on Thursday, May 21, 2026 at 8:30 a.m., Eastern Time (and at any adjournment or postponements thereof) for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of proxy is first being sent to stockholders on or about April 13, 2026.

The Meeting will be held solely on the internet by virtual means. You will not be able to attend the Meeting in person.

The persons named as proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with your instructions and, unless specified to the contrary, will vote "FOR" the election of the Class I Director nominees. The close of business on April 10, 2026, has been fixed as the record date (the "Record Date") for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Each outstanding full share of common stock of the Fund is entitled to one vote for as many individuals as there are directors to be elected at the Meeting. Votes may not be cumulated. At the close of business on the Record Date, the Fund had 55,254,696 Shares outstanding.

Under the Bylaws of the Fund, the presence in person or by proxy of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast constitutes a quorum. In the event that a quorum is not present at the Meeting or otherwise, the chairperson of the Meeting has the power to adjourn the Meeting from time to time, to a date not more than 120 days after the Record Date without notice other than announcement at the Meeting.

For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting, an abstention is always counted as present and entitled to vote because presence (either in person or by proxy) and entitlement to vote are necessary to the act of abstaining. With respect to the counting of votes, an abstention is not a vote cast. If the vote required is a majority or other percentage of all the votes entitled to be cast, the effect of an abstention will be the same as a vote against the proposal. "Broker non-votes" (*i.e.*, proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote Shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power), if any, will be treated as Shares that are present for quorum purposes but not "entitled to vote." A broker non-vote is a vote that is not cast on a non-routine matter by a broker that is present (either in person or by proxy) at a meeting at which there is at least one routine matter on the proxy card (otherwise the broker does not have the authority to vote on anything and does not ordinarily send in a proxy). If the broker votes on a routine matter but does not vote on a non-routine item on the proxy, then the Shares held in "street name" (that is, through a broker, bank or other nominee) are present for quorum purposes and the effect of not voting on the non-routine matter depends upon whether the vote requirement for that proposal is based upon a proportion of the votes cast (no effect) or a proportion of the votes entitled to be cast (effect of a vote against). Proposal 1 is a routine matter. Abstentions will have the same effect as votes "AGAINST" Proposal 1. Since banks and brokers will have discretionary authority to vote Shares in the absence of voting instructions from stockholders with respect to Proposal 1, we expect that there will be no broker non-votes with respect to Proposal 1.

Stockholders who execute proxies retain the right to revoke them by: (a) written notice received by the Secretary of the Fund at any time before that proxy is exercised; (b) signing a proxy bearing a later date; or (c) attending the Meeting and voting in person (attendance at the Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a properly executed proxy). If you hold your Shares in "street name," you should instruct your broker or nominee how to vote your Shares by following the voting instructions provided by your broker or nominee.

In order to participate in and vote your Shares at the Meeting, stockholders as of the Record Date need to register for the Meeting.

If you are a registered holder, and wish to attend and vote at the Meeting, you must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Send an email including your full name and address to the Fund's proxy solicitor, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC ("Equiniti"), at attendameeting@equiniti.com with "**Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc. virtual meeting**" in the subject line. After receiving this information, Equiniti will then email you the virtual meeting access information and instructions for voting during the Meeting. You will need the control number found on your proxy card as part of the registration process.

If your Shares are registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other nominee, you are the "beneficial owner" of those Shares and those Shares are considered as held in "street name." If you hold your Shares in "street name" and wish to attend and vote at the Meeting, you must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee reflecting the Fund's name, the number of Shares you held as of the Record Date, as well as your name and address. You may forward an email from your intermediary containing the legal proxy or attach an image of the legal proxy via email to Equiniti at attendameeting@equiniti.com with "**Legal Proxy**" in the subject line. After receiving this information, Equiniti will then email you the virtual meeting access information and instructions for voting during the Meeting.

You will receive confirmation of your registration by email after Equiniti receives your registration materials. If you wish to vote your Shares electronically at the Meeting, please follow the instructions provided by Equiniti in its confirmation email. On the day of the Meeting, we encourage you to access the Meeting prior to start time leaving ample time to check in.

#### PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF CLASS I DIRECTORS
The Fund's Board of Directors (the "Board," or the "Board of Directors") is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The terms of office of the present Directors in each class expire at the Meeting in the year indicated and when their respective successors are elected and qualify: Class I, 2026, Class II, 2027 and Class III, 2028. Directors elected to succeed those whose terms are expiring will be identified as being of that same class and will be elected to serve until the third annual meeting after their election and until their successors are duly elected and qualify.

The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to vote at the Meeting (unless directed not to so vote) for the re-election by stockholders of Mr. Brian F. Hurley, a Class I Interested Director nominee, and Ms. Betty A. Whelchel, a Class I Independent Director nominee. Mr. Hurley and Ms. Whelchel have indicated that they will serve if elected, but if they should be unable to serve, the proxy or proxies will be voted for any other persons determined by the persons named in the proxy in accordance with their discretion.

The following table summarizes the nominees who will stand for election at the Meeting, the respective class of Directors to which they have been designated, and the expiration of their respective terms if elected at the Meeting:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  **Interested Director** | **Class** | **Expiration of Term if Elected\*** |
|  Mr. Brian F. Hurley | Class I | 2029 Annual Meeting |

---

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  **Independent Director** | **Class** | **Expiration of Term if Elected\*** |
|  Ms. Betty A. Whelchel | Class I | 2029 Annual Meeting |

---

____________

*\* A Director elected at an annual meeting shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his or her term expires and until his or her successor shall be duly elected and qualify, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office, to retirement because he or she has reached the mandatory retirement age for Directors of the Fund, or to otherwise being removed or retired pursuant to the Fund's Articles of Incorporation.*

\* \* \*

The Board has determined that Messrs. Edward A. Kuczmarski, Stuart A. McFarland, William H. Wright II and Mses. Heather S. Goldman, Betty A. Whelchel and Susan Schauffert-Tam are each independent under the criteria for independence set forth in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. Mr. Brian F. Hurley is considered an Interested Director. Therefore, upon the re-election of Mr. Hurley and Ms. Whelchel, the Fund will continue to meet the requirements of the New York Stock Exchange that a majority of directors be independent.

As described above, there are two nominees for election to the Board at this time. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the Meeting, if a quorum is present, is sufficient to elect a Director.

**The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote "FOR" the election of the Class I nominees listed above to serve as Directors until the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2029, and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualify.**

#### Information Concerning Nominees and Directors
The following table and the "Information about Each Director's Qualifications, Experience, Attributes or Skills" section below provide information concerning each of the Directors and the Class I Director nominees of the Board, as of the date of this Proxy Statement. The nominee for Class I Interested Director is listed under "Class I Interested Director Nominee." The nominee for Class I Independent Director is listed under "Class I Independent Director Nominee." The terms of the Class II Independent Directors and Class III Independent Directors do not expire this year. The Board has resolved to require Independent Directors to observe a mandatory retirement from the Brookfield Fund Complex at the end of the calendar year in which the Independent Directors attain the age of 78. Two additional one-year extensions up to the end of the calendar year in which the Independent Directors attain the age of 80 may be implemented on an annual basis pending the majority vote by the remaining Board members.

#### Information Regarding the Board and its Committees
*The Role of the Board*

The business and affairs of the Fund are managed under the direction of the Board. The Board provides oversight of the management and operations of the Fund. As is the case with virtually all investment companies (as distinguished from operating companies), the day-to-day management and operation of the Fund is the responsibility of various service providers to the Fund, such as the Fund's investment adviser and administrator, custodian, and transfer agent, each of whom are discussed in greater detail in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information. The Board approves all significant agreements between the Fund and its service providers. The Board has appointed senior employees of the Adviser as officers of the Fund, with responsibility to monitor and report to the Board on the Fund's day-to-day operations. In conducting this oversight, the Board receives regular reports from these officers and service providers regarding the Fund's operations. The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer who administers the Fund's compliance program and regularly reports to the Board as to compliance matters. Some of these reports are provided as part of formal "Board meetings" which are typically held quarterly, in person, and involve the Board's review of recent Fund operations. From time to time, one or more members of the Board may also meet with management in

less formal settings, between scheduled "Board meetings," to discuss various topics. In all cases, however, the role of the Board and of any individual Director is one of oversight and not of management of the day-to-day affairs of the Fund and its oversight role does not make the Board a guarantor of the Fund's investments, operations, or activities.

*Board Leadership Structure*

The Fund's Board has structured itself in a manner that it believes allows it to perform its oversight function effectively. Currently, six of the seven members of the Board, including the Chair of the Board, are not "interested persons," as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Fund (the "Independent Directors"), which are Directors that are not affiliated with the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board has established three standing committees, an Audit Committee, a Governance Committee, and a Qualified Legal Compliance Committee (the "QLCC") (collectively, the "Committees"), which are discussed in greater detail below. The Audit Committee, Governance Committee, and QLCC are comprised entirely of Independent Directors. Each of the Independent Directors helps identify matters for consideration by the Board and the Chair of the Board has an active role in the agenda-setting process for Board meetings. Mr. Kuczmarski, a Class III Director, serves as Chair of the Board. Each of the Audit Committee and Governance Committee Chairs also has an active role in the agenda setting process for the Audit Committee and Governance Committee meetings, respectively. Mr. Wright and Ms. Goldman, each Class II Directors, serve as Chairs of the Audit Committee and the Governance Committee, respectively.

The Fund's Board has adopted Fund Governance Policies and Procedures to ensure that the Board is properly constituted in accordance with the 1940 Act and to set forth examples of certain of the significant matters for consideration by the Board and/or its Committees in order to facilitate the Board's oversight function. For example, although the 1940 Act requires that at least 40% of a fund's directors not be "interested persons," as defined in the 1940 Act, the Board has determined that the Independent Directors should constitute at least a majority of the Board. The Board has determined that its leadership structure is appropriate. In addition, the Board also has determined that the structure, function, and composition of the Committees are appropriate means to provide effective oversight on behalf of the Fund's stockholders. The Independent Directors have engaged their own independent counsel to advise them on matters relating to their responsibilities to the Fund.

*Board Oversight of Risk Management*

As part of its oversight function, the Board receives and reviews various risk management reports and assessments and discusses these matters with appropriate management and other personnel. Because risk management is a broad concept comprised of many elements, Board oversight of different types of risks is handled in different ways. For example, the full Board receives and reviews reports from senior personnel of the Adviser and Administrator (including senior compliance, financial reporting, and investment personnel) or their affiliates regarding various types of risks, including, but not limited to, operational, compliance, investment, and business continuity risks, and how they are being managed. From time to time, the full Board meets with the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer to discuss compliance and operational risks relating to the Fund, the Adviser and the Fund's other service providers, and receives reports from the Adviser's internal audit group as to these and other matters. The Audit Committee supports the Board's oversight of risk management in a variety of ways, including meeting regularly with the Fund's Treasurer, with the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm and, when appropriate, with other personnel employed by the Adviser to discuss, among other things, the internal control structure of the Fund's financial reporting function and compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

*Information about Each Director's Qualifications, Experience, Attributes or Skills*

The Board believes that each of the Directors, including the Class I Director nominees, have the qualifications, experience, attributes, and skills ("Director Attributes") appropriate to serve as a Director of the Fund in light of the Fund's business and structure. All of the Directors have substantial business and/or professional backgrounds that indicate they have the ability to critically review, evaluate and assess information provided to them. Certain of these business and/or professional experiences are set forth in detail in the table above. Each Director has demonstrated a commitment to discharging his or her oversight responsibilities as a Director of the Fund. The Board, with the assistance of the Governance Committee, annually conducts a "self-assessment" wherein the performance and effectiveness of the Board and the Committees are reviewed.

In addition to the information provided in the table above, below is certain additional information regarding each Director, including the Class I Director nominees, and certain of their Director Attributes. The information provided below, and in the table above, is not all-inclusive. Many Director Attributes involve intangible elements, such as intelligence, integrity, work ethic, the ability to work together, the ability to communicate effectively, the ability to exercise judgment and ask incisive questions, and the commitment to stockholder interests. In conducting its self-assessment, the Board has determined that the Directors have the appropriate attributes and experience to serve effectively as Directors of the Fund.

*Governance Committee Considerations for Independent Directors*

The Governance Committee evaluates candidates' qualifications for Board membership. When evaluating candidates, the Governance Committee considers a number of attributes including leadership, independence, interpersonal skills, financial acumen, integrity and professional ethics, educational and professional background, prior director or executive experience, industry knowledge, business judgment and specific experiences or expertise that would complement or benefit the Board as a whole. The Governance Committee also may consider other factors/attributes as it may determine appropriate in its own judgment. The Governance Committee believes that the

significance of each nominee's background, experience, qualifications, attributes, or skills must be considered in the context of the Board as a whole. As a result, the Governance Committee has not established a litmus test or quota relating to these matters that must be satisfied before an individual may serve as a Director. The Governance Committee believes that board effectiveness is best evaluated at a group level, through the annual self-assessment process. Through this process, the Governance Committee considers whether the Board as a whole has an appropriate level of sophistication, skill, and business acumen and the appropriate range of experience and background. The diversity of a candidate's background or experiences, when considered in comparison to the background and experiences of other members of the Board, may or may not impact the Governance Committee's view as to the candidate. In evaluating these matters, the Governance Committee typically considers the following minimum criteria:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• With respect to nominations for Independent Directors, nominees shall be independent of the Adviser and other principal service providers. The Governance Committee of the Fund shall also consider the effect of any relationship beyond those delineated in the 1940 Act that might impair independence, such as business, financial or family relationships with the investment adviser or its affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Independent Director nominees must qualify for service on the Fund's Audit Committee under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (including financial literacy requirements) or of another applicable securities exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• With respect to all Directors, a proposed nominee must qualify under all applicable laws and regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Governance Committee of the Fund also may consider such other factors as it may determine to be relevant.

*Board Meetings*

During the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board held four regular meetings, and each Director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Fund's Board of Directors and of the Committees on which he or she served. The Chair of the Board of Directors, who is elected by the Independent Directors, presides at each executive session of the Board, or if one has not been designated, the Chair of the Governance Committee serves as such.

*Audit Committee*

The Fund has a standing Audit Committee that was established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, which currently consists of Messrs. Wright, Kuczmarski, McFarland, and Mses. Goldman, Whelchel and Schauffert-Tam, all of whom are Independent Directors. The principal functions of the Audit Committee are to review the Fund's audited financial statements, to select the Fund's independent auditors, to review with the Fund's auditors the scope and anticipated costs of their audit and to receive and consider a report from the auditors concerning their conduct of the audit, including any comments or recommendations they might want to make in connection therewith. During the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Audit Committee held four Committee meetings. Mr. Wright serves as Chair of the Audit Committee, and the Board has determined that Messrs. Wright, McFarland and Kuczmarski and Ms. Goldman each qualify and are designated as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Board has adopted a written charter for its Audit Committee, which is available on the Fund's website at *https://privatewealth.brookfield.com/fund/brookfield*-real-assets-income-fund-inc. A copy of the Fund's Audit Committee Charter is also available free of charge, upon request directed to Investor Relations, Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc., 225 Liberty Street, 35<sup>th</sup> Floor, New York, New York 10281.

*Governance Committee*

The Fund has a Governance Committee, which currently consists of Mses. Goldman, Whelchel and Schauffert-Tam, and Messrs. Kuczmarski, McFarland and Wright, all of whom are Independent Directors and independent as independence is defined in New York Stock Exchange, Inc.'s listing standards. The Governance Committee of the Fund met three times during the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Ms. Goldman serves as Chair of the Governance Committee. A principal function of the Fund's Governance Committee is to recommend

candidates for election to its Board as Independent Directors. The Fund's Governance Committee evaluates each candidate's qualifications for Board membership and their independence from the Adviser and other principal service providers.

The Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by stockholders who, separately or as a group, own at least one percent of the Fund's shares. For a list of the minimum criteria used by the Governance Committee to assess a candidate's qualifications, please see "Governance Committee Considerations for Independent Directors" above.

When identifying and evaluating prospective nominees, the Governance Committee reviews all recommendations in the same manner, including those received by stockholders. The Governance Committee first determines if the prospective nominee(s) meets the minimum qualifications set forth above. Those proposed nominees meeting the minimum qualifications as set forth above are then to be considered by the Governance Committee with respect to any other qualifications deemed to be important. Those proposed nominees meeting the minimum and other qualifications and determined by the Governance Committee as suitable are nominated for election by the Committee.

Stockholder recommendations should be addressed to the Governance Committee in care of the Secretary of the Fund and sent to 225 Liberty Street, 35<sup>th</sup> Floor, New York, New York 10281. Stockholder recommendations should include biographical information, including business experience for the past nine years and a description of the qualifications of the proposed nominee, along with a statement from the nominee that he or she is willing to serve and meets the requirements to be an Independent Director, if applicable. The Fund's Governance Committee also determines the compensation paid to the Independent Directors. The Board has adopted a written charter for its Governance Committee, which is available on the Fund's website at *https://privatewealth.brookfield.com/fund/brookfield*-real-assets-income-fund-inc. A copy of the Fund's Governance Committee Charter is also available free of charge, upon request directed to Investor Relations, Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc., 225 Liberty Street, 35<sup>th</sup> Floor, New York, New York 10281.

The Fund's Governance Committee has recommended Mr. Hurley and Ms. Whelchel as nominees for election as Class I Directors. The Board has approved and appointed Mr. Hurley and Ms. Whelchel to serve as Class I Directors.

*Qualified Legal Compliance Committee*

The Fund has a standing Qualified Legal Compliance Committee ("QLCC"). The QLCC was formed for the purpose of compliance with Rules 205.2(k) and 205.3(c) of the Code of Federal Regulations, regarding alternative reporting procedures for attorneys retained or employed by an issuer who appear and practice before the Securities and Exchange Commission on behalf of the issuer (the "issuer attorneys"). An issuer attorney who becomes aware of evidence of a material violation by the Fund, or by any officer, Director, employee, or agent of the Fund, may report evidence of such material violation to the QLCC as an alternative to the reporting requirements of Rule 205.3(b) (which requires reporting to the chief legal officer and potentially "up the ladder" to other entities). The QLCC meets as needed. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund's QLCC did not meet. The QLCC currently consists of Messrs. Kuczmarski, McFarland, Wright and Mses. Goldman, Whelchel and Schauffert-Tam.

#### Code of Ethics
*Code of Ethics.* The Fund has adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of its Directors and officers and any employees of the Fund's external manager or its affiliates who are involved in the Fund's business and affairs. The code of ethics is designed to comply with Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and New York Stock Exchange listing standards related to codes of conduct and ethics and is available on the Fund's website at *https://privatewealth.brookfield.com/fund/brookfield*-real-assets-income-fund-inc. A copy of the Fund's code of ethics also is available free of charge, upon request directed to Investor Relations, Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc., 225 Liberty Street, 35<sup>th</sup> Floor, New York, New York 10281.

There is no family relationship between any of the Fund's current officers or Directors. There are no orders, judgments, or decrees of any governmental agency or administrator, or of any court of competent jurisdiction, revoking or suspending for cause any license, permit or other authority to engage in the securities business or in the sale of a particular security or temporarily or permanently restraining any of the Fund's officers or Directors from engaging in or continuing any conduct, practice or employment in connection with the purchase or sale of securities, or convicting such person of any felony or misdemeanor involving a security, or any aspect of the securities business or of theft or of any felony, nor are any of the officers or Directors of any corporation or entity affiliated with the Fund so enjoined.

#### Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers
No remuneration was paid by the Fund to persons who were directors, officers or employees of the Adviser or any affiliate thereof for their services as Directors or officers of the Fund. Each Director of the Fund, other than those who are officers or employees of the Adviser or any affiliate thereof, was entitled to receive from the Fund a Fund Complex fee. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the aggregate annual retainer paid to each Independent Director of the Board for the Fund Complex was $260,000.

#### GENERAL INFORMATION

#### MANAGEMENT AND SERVICE PROVIDERS

#### The Adviser / The Sub-Advisers
Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC (the "Adviser" or "PSG"), a Delaware limited liability company and a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, serves as the investment adviser and administrator to the Fund. Founded in 1989, the Adviser is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management ULC ("BAM ULC"), an unlimited liability company formed under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. BAM ULC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. ("BAM Ltd."), a publicly traded company (NYSE: BAM; TSX: BAMA). Brookfield Corporation, a publicly traded company (NYSE: BN; TSX: BN), holds a 73% interest in BAM Ltd. BAM Ltd. is a leading global alternative asset manager focused on real estate, renewable power, infrastructure and private equity, with assets under management over $1 trillion as of December 31, 2025. In addition to the Fund, the Adviser's clients include financial institutions, public and private pension plans, insurance companies, endowments and foundations, sovereign wealth funds, high net-worth investors, and several other registered investment companies. The Adviser specializes in global listed real assets strategies and its investment philosophy incorporates a value-based approach towards investment. The business address of the Adviser and its officers and directors is 225 Liberty Street, 35<sup>th</sup> Floor, New York, New York 10281. Subject to the authority and oversight of the Board of Directors, the Adviser is responsible for the overall management of the Fund's business affairs. As of December 31, 2025, the Adviser and its subsidiaries had over $66.5 billion in assets under management.

The Fund has also entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Oaktree Fund Advisors, LLC (the Sub-Adviser), a Delaware limited liability company and a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Sub-Adviser is an affiliate of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. ("OCM"), a leading global investment management firm headquartered in Los Angeles, California focused on less efficient markets and alternative investments, and is a subsidiary of Brookfield Oaktree Holdings, LLC (formerly, Oaktree Capital Group, LLC) (collectively with OCM and the Sub-Adviser, "Oaktree"). Oaktree was formed in April 1995 and is a leading global investment management firm headquartered in Los Angeles, California, with more than 1,400 employees and offices in 26 cities worldwide. As of December 31, 2025, OCM had approximately $223 billion in assets under management. Oaktree's senior executives and investment professionals have focused on less efficient markets and alternative investments for the past nearly 40 years.

Oaktree's competitive advantages include its experienced team of investment professionals, a global platform, and a unifying investment philosophy. This investment philosophy — the six tenets of which are risk control, consistency, market inefficiency, specialization, bottom-up analysis, and disavowal of market timing — is complemented by a set of core business principles that articulate Oaktree's commitment to excellence in investing; commonality of interests with clients; a collaborative and cooperative culture; and a disciplined, opportunistic approach to the expansion of offerings. As a result of consistent application of its philosophy and principles, Oaktree has earned a large and distinguished clientele. Among Oaktree's global clients are 64 of the 100 largest U.S. pension plans, more than 550 corporations around the world, 40 of the 50 primary state retirement plans in the United States, over 300 endowments and foundations globally, and over 17 sovereign wealth funds.

Oaktree's asset management business is indirectly controlled by Oaktree Capital Holdings, LLC. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 74% of the Oaktree business was indirectly owned by Brookfield Corporation and Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (collectively "Brookfield"), and the remaining approximately 26% was owned by current and former Oaktree executives and employees (including certain related persons and trusts/investment entities). Brookfield's ownership interest in Oaktree's business is held through Brookfield Oaktree Holdings, LLC, Oaktree Capital Holdings, LLC and related entities. In October 2025, Oaktree and Brookfield announced that they agreed on a proposed transaction whereby Brookfield will acquire the approximately 26% interest in Oaktree that it does not already own such that, upon completion of the proposed transaction, Brookfield will own 100% of Oaktree. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026. Following the closing of such transaction, Brookfield will have the right to appoint a majority of Oaktree's board of directors and assume control of Oaktree's business if it chooses to do so.

Together, Brookfield and Oaktree provide investors with one of the most comprehensive offerings of alternative investment products available today. While partnering to leverage one another's strengths, Oaktree operates as an independent business within the Brookfield family, with its own product offerings and investment, marketing, and support teams. As of December 31, 2025, Oaktree had approximately $11.6 billion under management.

Hurley, the Class I Interested Director Nominee, is the President of the Fund and an employee of the Adviser, and may be entitled, in addition to receiving a salary from the Adviser, to receive a bonus based upon a portion of the Adviser's profits.

In addition, Broadridge Financial Solutions will assist with the distribution of proxy materials and the tabulation of proxies and estimates such fees to be approximately $88,000 to $100,000. In addition to the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited personally by officers of the Fund or by regular employees of the Adviser.
