Officers and employees of Brookfield Renewable, who are not resident of Canada, designated by the Committee, are eligible to participate in the Plan (each an “Eligible Person”).

The Trustee or Custodian shall withhold from payments under this Plan, if any, or may sell Units held in a Participant’s Custodial Restricted Unit Account and use the proceeds to pay all amounts required to be withheld or remitted pursuant to applicable laws as determined by the Employer in its sole discretion, to the extent the Participant does not remit such amounts to the Trustee on or before the applicable date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may elect to satisfy all or part of his or her withholding or income tax obligation by having BEP withhold a portion of any Restricted Units that he or she was previously awarded and have now Vested.

In the event of a reorganization or change of control of BEP, or the amalgamation, merger or combination of BEP with or into another entity, or the payment of a special or extraordinary distribution, the Committee shall make such provision for the protection of the rights of Participants, if any, as the Committee in its discretion deems appropriate.

3.9 Amendment or Termination

The provisions of this Plan may be amended at any time and from time to time by the Committee. However, except as expressly set forth herein, no action of the Committee may materially and adversely alter or impair the rights of a Participant without the consent of the affected Participant. The Committee may, from time to time, in its sole discretion, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part.

The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any actions taken or relating to the Plan shall be governed by and interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
