INTRODUCTION

This Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3, together with the exhibits hereto (this “Schedule 13E-3” or “Transaction Statement”), is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”), jointly by the following persons (each, a “Filing Person,” and collectively, the “Filing Persons”): (i) Tricon Residential Inc., a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario and the issuer of the common shares, no par value (the “Shares”) that is subject to the Rule 13e-3 transaction (“Tricon” or the “Corporation”); (ii) Creedence Acquisition ULC, an unlimited liability company organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (“Creedence” or the “Purchaser”), an entity formed to effect the acquisition of the Corporation by Blackstone Real Estate Partners X L.P. (“BREP X”) and Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“BREIT”, and collectively with BREP X and their respective affiliates, including the Purchaser, “Blackstone”); (iii) BCORE Preferred Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BREIT Shareholder”); (iv) BREP X, a Delaware limited partnership; (v) BREIT, a Maryland corporation; (vi) BREIT Operating Partnership L.P., a Delaware limited partnership; (vii) Creedence Intermediate Holdings Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia; and (viii) Blackstone Real Estate Associates X L.P., a Delaware limited partnership.

On January 18, 2024, the Corporation and the Purchaser entered into an Arrangement Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Arrangement Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, the acquisition by the Purchaser of all of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Corporation through a Plan of Arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) pursuant to Section 182 of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (“OBCA”), pursuant to which the Corporation would become a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Purchaser (the “Arrangement”). A copy of the Plan of Arrangement is included as Appendix “B” to the Management Information Circular, which is attached as Exhibit (a)(2)(i) hereto (the “Circular”). A special meeting of the Corporation’s shareholders (the “Shareholders”) has been called for March 28, 2024 (the “Meeting”) to consider and, if thought advisable, pass a special resolution approving the Arrangement in the form attached as Appendix “A” to the Circular (the “Arrangement Resolution”). Capitalized terms used but not expressly defined in this Schedule 13E-3 are given the respective meanings given to them in the Circular.

The Circular is being provided to the Shareholders pursuant to applicable Canadian law. In order to become effective, the Arrangement must be approved by (i) at least two thirds (66²⁄₃%) of the votes cast on the Arrangement Resolution by the Shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Meeting, voting as a single class and (ii) a simple majority (more than 50%) of the votes cast by the Shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Meeting, excluding for the purposes of (ii), the votes attached to the Excluded Shares required to be excluded under MI 61-101.

Under the terms of the Plan of Arrangement, each outstanding Share, other than (i) Shares owned by BREIT Shareholder and (ii) Shares with respect to which a Shareholder has duly and validly exercised Dissent Rights, shall, without any further action by or on behalf of a holder of such Shares, be deemed to be assigned and transferred by the holder thereof to the Purchaser, and be entitled to receive US$11.25 in cash for each Share held, subject to applicable withholdings.

The Arrangement remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Arrangement Agreement, including the approval and adoption of the Arrangement Resolution by the Shareholders, the grant of the Final Order by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) approving the Arrangement and the Required Regulatory Approvals.

The cross-references below are being supplied pursuant to General Instruction F to Schedule 13E-3 and show the location in the Circular of the information required to be included in response to the items of Schedule 13E-3. Pursuant to General Instruction F to Schedule 13E-3, the information contained in the Circular, including all appendices thereto, is incorporated herein by reference, in its entirety and the responses to each item in this Schedule 13E-3 are qualified in their entirety by the information contained in the Circular and the appendices thereto.

A special committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) consisting entirely of independent directors (the “Special Committee”), conducted, with the assistance of its independent financial and legal advisors, a review of the Corporation’s operations and

financing needs and alternatives available to the Corporation and obtained an independent formal valuation of the Shares. Following this process, and after careful consideration, the Board (other than Frank Cohen, being the director on the Board appointed by Blackstone, who recused himself from the deliberations regarding the transactions contemplated hereby), acting on the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee and after receiving legal and financial advice, (i) determined it would be in the best interests of the Corporation to enter into the Arrangement Agreement and that the Arrangement and the transactions contemplated thereby are fair to the Shareholders (other than Blackstone), (ii) resolved to unanimously recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution, and (iii) authorized the entering into the Arrangement Agreement and the performance by Corporation of its obligations under the Arrangement Agreement.

All information concerning the Corporation contained in, or incorporated by reference into this Schedule 13E-3 and the Circular was supplied by the Corporation. Similarly, all information concerning each other Filing Person contained in, or incorporated by reference into this Schedule 13E-3 and the Circular was supplied by such Filing Person.
