BROOKFIELD, June 2, 2026 — Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (TSX: BEP.UN; NYSE: BEP), the flagship listed energy company of Brookfield Asset Management, announced Monday that it has agreed to issue 6,000,000 5.75% Cumulative Minimum Rate Reset Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 19, on a bought deal basis, raising gross proceeds of C$150,000,000. The offering is restricted to Canadian investors and is not available for distribution to U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

Deal Structure and Offering Terms

The Series 19 Preferred Units will be issued at C$25.00 per unit and carry a 5.75% annual cumulative distribution, paid quarterly, through an initial period ending July 31, 2031. After that date, the distribution rate will reset every five years at the greater of the 5-year Government of Canada bond yield plus 2.65%, or 5.75% — a structure that provides investors with a coupon floor while retaining upside if benchmark rates rise.

Holders will also have the option to reclassify their Series 19 Preferred Units into Cumulative Floating Rate Reset Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 20, beginning July 31, 2031 and every five years thereafter. Series 20 units would carry a floating distribution rate equal to the 90-day Canadian Treasury Bill yield plus 2.65%.

The Series 19 Preferred Units are redeemable on July 31, 2031 and on each Series 19 Reclassification Date thereafter.

Underwriting Syndicate

The bought deal is led by Scotiabank, with BMO Capital Markets, CIBC Capital Markets, National Bank of Canada, RBC Capital Markets, and TD Securities Inc. serving as joint bookrunners. Brookfield Renewable has granted the underwriting syndicate an over-allotment option, exercisable until 48 hours prior to closing, to purchase up to an additional 2,000,000 Series 19 Preferred Units. If exercised in full, the total gross offering size would increase to C$200,000,000.

The offering will be made in all provinces and territories of Canada by way of a prospectus supplement to Brookfield Renewable's existing Canadian short form base shelf prospectus dated September 26, 2025. The prospectus supplement and corresponding base shelf prospectus are expected to be accessible through SEDAR+ within two business days of the announcement.
