(“Western Wind”), other than any Common Shares owned, directly or indirectly, by the Offeror, Brookfield Renewable Energy Partners L.P.

THE OFFER HAS BEEN EXTENDED AND IS NOW OPEN FOR ACCEPTANCE UNTIL 5:00 P.M. (TORONTO TIME) ON FEBRUARY 21, 2013, UNLESS THE OFFER IS FURTHER EXTENDED OR

WITHDRAWN.

THIS IS BROOKFIELD RENEWABLE’S BEST AND FINAL OFFER.

THIS OFFER WILL NOT BE FURTHER EXTENDED UNLESS THE INDEPENDENT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL CONDITION IS MET.


This notice of extension (the “Notice of Extension”) should be read in conjunction with the First Notice of Variation and Extension, the Original Offer and the accompanying circular dated November 26, 2012 (the “Circular”, and together with the Original Offer, the “Original Offer and Circular”).

The term “Offer” means the Original Offer, as expressly amended and supplemented by the First Notice of Variation and Extension and this Notice of Extension.

It is a condition of the Offer that 50% of Common Shares held by Independent Shareholders are tendered to the Offer. If this minimum tender condition is not satisfied by the expiry time of the Offer, no Common Shares will be acquired by the Offeror and the Offer will not be further extended. As of the date hereof, Brookfield Renewable indirectly owns and controls 11,324,350 Common Shares, representing approximately 16.07% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS IN THE UNITED STATES

This Offer is made for the securities of a foreign issuer and while the offer is subject to Canadian disclosure requirements, investors should be aware that these requirements are different from those of the United States. Financial statements included herein, if any, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that Western Wind is located in a foreign country, and that some or all of its officers and directors and the experts named in the Offer and Circular are residents of a foreign country.

In addition, it may be difficult for Shareholders in the United States to enforce their rights and any claim they may have arising under United States federal and state securities Laws since the Offeror is a corporation formed under the Laws of Ontario, Brookfield Renewable is a limited partnership established under the Laws of Bermuda and Western Wind is incorporated under the Laws of British Columbia; the majority of the officers and directors of each of the Offeror, Brookfield Renewable and Western Wind reside outside the United States; some of the experts named herein may reside outside the United States; and certain of the assets of the Offeror and Brookfield Renewable and the other above-mentioned persons are located outside the United States. Shareholders in the United States may not be able to sue the Offeror, Brookfield Renewable, Western Wind or their respective officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violation of United States federal securities Laws. It may be difficult to compel such parties to subject themselves to the jurisdiction of a court in the United States or to enforce a judgment obtained from a court of the United States.

Investors should be aware that the Offeror, Brookfield Renewable or their affiliates, directly or indirectly, may bid for or make purchases of Western Wind’s Common Shares, or of Western Wind’s related securities, during the period of the Offer, as permitted by applicable Laws.

Shareholders in the United States should be aware that the disposition of Common Shares by them as described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in Canada. Such consequences may not be fully described herein and such holders are urged to consult their tax advisors. See Section 14 of the Circular, “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations” and Section 15 of the Circular, “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations”.

NOTICE TO HOLDERS OF OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

The Offer is being made only for Common Shares and is not made for any Options or Warrants. Any holder of Options or Warrants who wishes to accept the Offer must, to the extent permitted by the terms of such Options or Warrants and applicable Laws, exercise such Options or Warrants in order to obtain certificates representing Common Shares and deposit those Common Shares in accordance with the terms of the Offer. Any such exercise must be completed sufficiently in advance of the Expiry Time to ensure that the holder of such Options or Warrants will have certificates representing the Common Shares received on such exercise available for deposit at or prior to the Expiry Time, or in sufficient time to comply with the procedures referred to in Section 3 of the Original Offer, “Manner of Acceptance—Procedure for Guaranteed Delivery”.

Common Shares issued on the exercise of Options, Warrants or other Western Wind securities that are convertible into Common Shares shall, subject to compliance with the procedures applicable generally to the tendering of Common Shares of the Offer, be eligible to be tendered under the Offer.

The tax consequences to holders of Options or Warrants exercising their Options or Warrants are not described herein or in either Section 14 of the Circular, “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations” or in Section 15 of the Circular, “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations”. Holders of Options or Warrants should consult their tax advisors for advice with respect to potential income tax consequences to them in connection with the decision whether to exercise their Options or Warrants.

NOTICE OF EXTENSION

February 11, 2013

TO: THE HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES OF WESTERN WIND ENERGY CORP.

This Notice of Extension amends and supplements the Original Offer, as amended by the First Notice of Variation and Extension, pursuant to which the Offeror is offering to purchase, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of Western Wind, other than any Common Shares owned directly or indirectly, by the Offeror, Brookfield Renewable or any subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, including Common Shares that may become issued and outstanding after the date of the Offer but before the Expiry Time of the Offer upon the exercise of Options or Warrants, in order to extend the expiry of the Offer from 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 11, 2013 to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 21, 2013, unless the Offer is further extended or withdrawn.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Notice of Extension, the terms and conditions set forth in the Original Offer and Circular, as amended by the First Notice of Variation and Extension, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery that accompanied the Original Offer and Circular continue to be applicable in all respects. This Notice of Extension should be read in conjunction with the First Notice of Variation and Extension, the Original Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery that accompanied the Original Offer and Circular.

Unless otherwise defined herein or amended hereby, defined terms used in this Notice of Extension have the same meaning as in the Original Offer and Circular, as amended by the First Notice of Variation and Extension. The term “Offer” means the Original Offer as expressly amended and supplemented by the First Notice of Variation and Extension and this Notice of Extension.

 

1. Extension of the Offer

By notice to the Depositary given on February 11, 2013 and as set forth in this Notice of Extension, the Offeror has extended the expiry of the Offer from 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 11, 2013 to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 21, 2013, unless the Offer is further extended or withdrawn. Accordingly, the definition of “Expiry Time” in the “Glossary” section of the Original Offer and Circular (found at page 9 of the Original Offer and Circular), as amended by the First Notice of Variation and Extension, is deleted and replaced by the following:

“Expiry Time” means 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 21, 2013, or such later time or times and date or dates as may be fixed by the Offeror from time to time pursuant to Section 5 of the Original Offer, “Extension, Variation or Change in the Offer”;

In addition, all references to “5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 11, 2013” in the Original Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, each as amended by the First Notice of Variation and Extension, are amended to refer to “5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 21, 2013”.

 

2. Recent Developments

Since the date of the Original Offer and Circular there have occurred certain developments relating to the Offer which are summarized below.

 

1


Western Wind Announcement of Option Agreement with PBJL Energy Corporation

On February 4, 2013, Western Wind announced that it had entered into an option agreement with PBJL Energy Corporation (“PBJL”), a company principally owned by consultants of Western Wind. Brookfield Renewable is of the view that this announcement, which discloses few details, is nothing more than an announcement of a random, speculative development venture that may never come to pass and which has no discernible value.

Second Notice of Change to the Supplementary Directors’ Circular

On February 4, 2013, the Board of Directors issued a second notice of change to the Supplementary Directors’ Circular which recommended that Shareholders reject the Offer.

Brookfield Renewable Prevails at Ontario Securities Commission

On February 8, 2013, Brookfield Renewable announced that the Ontario Securities Commission had dismissed the application of Western Wind and agreed with Brookfield Renewable that a formal valuation of the Common Shares is not required. Accordingly, the Offeror is not prevented from taking up Common Shares tendered to the Offer.

 

3. Time for Acceptance

The Offer is now open for acceptance until 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 21, 2013, unless further extended or withdrawn.

 

4. Manner of Acceptance

Common Shares which have not already been deposited pursuant to the Offer may be deposited under the Offer in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 of the Original Offer, “Manner of Acceptance”.

 

5. Take-Up and Payment for Deposited Common Shares

If all of the conditions described in Section 4 of the Original Offer, “Conditions of the Offer”, have been satisfied or, as permitted, waived by the Offeror at or prior to the Expiry Time, the Offeror will take up and pay for Common Shares validly deposited under the Offer and not properly withdrawn not later than ten business days after the Expiry Time. Any Common Shares taken up will be paid for as soon as possible, and in any event not later than three business days after they are taken up. Any Common Shares deposited under the Offer after the date on which Common Shares are first taken up by the Offeror under the Offer but prior to the Expiry Time will be taken up and paid for not later than ten business days after such deposit. See Section 6 of the Original Offer, “Take-Up and Payment for Deposited Common Shares”.

 

6. Withdrawal of Deposited Common Shares

Common Shares deposited in acceptance of the Offer may be withdrawn by or on behalf of the depositing Shareholder at any time before the Common Shares have been taken up by the Offeror under the Offer and in the other circumstances described in Section 7 of the Original Offer, “Withdrawal of Deposited Common Shares”. Except as otherwise stated or as otherwise required by applicable Laws, all deposits of Common Shares under the Offer are irrevocable.

 

7. Consequential Amendments to the Original Offer and Circular

The Original Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, each as amended and supplemented by the First Notice of Variation and Extension, shall be read together with this Notice of Extension and are amended to the extent necessary to reflect the amendments contemplated by, and the information contained in, this Notice of Extension.

 

2


Except as otherwise set forth in or amended by this Notice of Extension, the terms and conditions of the Offer and the information in the Original Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, each as amended and supplemented by the First Notice of Variation and Extension, continue to be applicable in all respects.

 

8. Statutory Rights

Securities legislation in the provinces and territories of Canada provides Shareholders with, in addition to any other rights they may have at Law, one or more rights of rescission, price revision or to damages if there is a misrepresentation in a circular or notice that is required to be delivered to the Shareholders. However, such rights must be exercised within prescribed time limits. Shareholders should refer to the applicable provisions of the securities legislation of their province or territory for particulars of those rights or consult a lawyer.

 

9. Directors’ Approval

The contents of this Notice of Extension have been approved, and the sending of this Notice of Extension to the Shareholders and holders of Options or Warrants has been authorized, by the boards of directors of the Offeror and the general partner of Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield Renewable Partners Limited.
