Holders of Series 7 Units are not required to

As provided in the unit conditions of the Series
7 Units, (i) if Brookfield Renewable determines that there would be
fewer than 1,000,000 Series 7 Units outstanding after January 31,
2021, all remaining Series 7 Units will be automatically
reclassified into Series 8 Units on a one-for-one basis effective
January 31, 2021; or (ii) if Brookfield Renewable determines that
there would be fewer than 1,000,000 Series 8 Units outstanding
