3.do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Schedule 13D, Schedule 13G, Form 3, 4, or 5, or other form or report, complete and execute any amendment or amendments thereto, and timely file such form with the SEC and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

5.take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing which, in the opinion of such Attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed by such Attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as such Attorney-in-fact may approve in such Attorney-in-fact's discretion.

 

The undersigned hereby grants to each such Attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally present, with full power of substitution and resubstitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such Attorney-in-fact, or such Attorney-in-fact substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein granted.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until (a) the undersigned is no longer required to file Schedules 13D and 13G and Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by any Fund, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing delivered to the foregoing Attorneys-in-fact or (b) only with respect to each Attorney-in-fact, as applicable, at the time which such Attorney-in-fact is no longer employed by Brookfield Asset Management Inc., Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC, or any other registered investment company affiliated with, established by, or successor to, the foregoing entities (“Brookfield”). For the avoidance of doubt, the termination or lapse of employment of any Attorney-in-fact with Brookfield shall not affect the validity of this Power of Attorney with respect to the remaining Attorneys-in-fact.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be executed as of this 21st day of December 2023.
