INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

 

Under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), each of Brookfield Corporation (“BN”), Brookfield Finance Inc. (“BFI”) and Brookfield Finance II Inc. (“BFI II”), Brookfield Finance IV Inc. (“BFI IV”) and Brookfield Finance V Inc. (“BFI V” and together with BN, BFI, BFI II and BFI IV, the “F-10 Registrants”) may indemnify a present or former director or officer or another individual who acts or acted at such F-10 Registrant’s request as a director or officer, or in a similar capacity, of another entity (the “indemnified individual”), against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the indemnified individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the indemnified individual is involved because of that association with such F-10 Registrant or such other entity and provided that the indemnified individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of such F-10 Registrant or the other entity, as the case may be, and, in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, such indemnified individual had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. A F-10 Registrant may, with court approval, indemnify an indemnified individual in respect of an action by or on behalf of a F-10 Registrant or such other entity to obtain a judgment in its favour, to which the indemnified individual is made a party because of their association with a F-10 Registrant or such other entity. An indemnified individual is entitled to indemnification from such F-10 Registrant as a matter of right if such indemnified individual was not judged by a court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the indemnified individual ought to have done and fulfilled the conditions set forth above.

 

In accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), the board of directors of BN approved a resolution (the “Resolution”) dated August 1, 1997 providing for the following:

 

(i)BN shall indemnify a director or officer of BN, a former director or officer of BN or a person who acts or acted at BN’s request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which BN is or was a shareholder or creditor, and his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him or her in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of BN or such body corporate (except in respect of an action by or on behalf of BN or such body corporate to procure a judgment in its favor), if

 

(a)he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of BN, and

 

(b)in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he or she had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful;

 

F-10,II-1

 

 

(ii)BN shall, with the prior approval of the court having jurisdiction, indemnify a person referred to in (i) above in respect of an action by or on behalf of BN or such body corporate to procure a judgment in its favor, to which he or she is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or an officer of BN or such body corporate, against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action if he or she fulfils the conditions set out in paragraphs (i)(a) and (b) above; and

 

(iii)notwithstanding anything in (i) and (ii) above, a person referred to in (i) above shall be indemnified by BN in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of BN or body corporate, if the person seeking indemnity,

 

(a)was substantially successful on the merits in his or her defense of the action or proceeding, and

 

(b)fulfills the conditions set out in paragraphs (i)(a) and (b) above.

 

Nothing in the by-laws or resolutions of BN limits the right of any person entitled to claim indemnity apart from the indemnity provided pursuant to the Resolution.

 

A policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance is maintained by BN which insures, subject to certain exclusions, directors and officers for losses as a result of claims against the directors and officers of BN in their capacity as directors and officers and also reimburses BN for payments made pursuant to the indemnity provided by BN pursuant to the Resolution or as required or permitted by law.

 

**********

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling each of the F-10 Registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, each F-10 Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
