In addition to the general supervision of the Service Providers, the Board performs the following functions:

The Partnership’s main purpose is to hold limited partnership interests of BRELP. Accordingly, the Board performs its functions principally through requiring that the general partner of BRELP perform comparable functions in respect of BRELP, including adopting policies in respect of communications and disclosure and corporate governance that are comparable to those of the Managing General Partner. The policies of BRELP must also impose appropriate obligations on the entities in which it invests. Both the Managing General Partner and the general partner of BRELP will fulfill their responsibilities regarding the evaluation of risks and internal controls through receiving and evaluating reports on such matters from entities in which they invest.

(a)Size of Board and Selection Process – The directors of the Managing General Partner are elected by its shareholders from time to time. The Nominating and Governance Committee recommends to the full Board the nominees for election to the Board and the Board proposes to its shareholders a slate of nominees for election, the number of which is subject to limits in its constating documents. The Nominating and Governance Committee also recommends the number of directors from time to time.

(b)Qualifications –Directors should have the highest personal and professional ethics and values and be committed to advancing the best interests of the Partnership. They should possess skills and competencies in areas that are relevant to the Managing General Partner’s activities. At least three directors and at least a majority of the directors will be independent directors based on the rules and guidelines of applicable stock exchanges and securities regulatory authorities. If the Chair of the Board is not independent, there shall be a Lead Independent Director of the Board selected by the Board on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee. The Board is committed to developing and promoting diversity, including ethnic, racial and gender diversity.

(c)Director Education and Orientation – The Partnership’s Service Provider is responsible for providing an orientation program for new directors of the Partnership and director roles and responsibilities. In addition, directors will, as required, receive continuing education about the Partnership to maintain a current understanding of the Partnership’s business and operations, industries and sectors in which we operate globally and the Partnership’s strategic initiatives.

(d)Meetings – The Chair is responsible for approving the agenda for each Board meeting. Prior to each Board meeting, the Chair of the Board reviews agenda items for the meeting with the Service Providers before circulation to the full Board. The Board meets at least once each quarter and holds additional meetings as necessary to consider special business. The Board also meets once a year to review the Partnership’s annual business plan and long-term strategy. Materials for each meeting are distributed to the directors in advance of the meetings. If the Chair of the Board is absent from a meeting, the other directors shall select a director from those in attendance to act as chair of the meeting. The directors shall appoint a secretary to be the secretary of all meetings and to maintain minutes of all meetings and deliberations of the Board. At the conclusion of each regularly scheduled meeting, the independent directors meet separately. The Lead Independent Director chairs these in-camera sessions.

(e)Committees – The Board has established the following standing committees to assist it in discharging its responsibilities: Audit and Nominating and Governance.

(f)Evaluation – The Nominating and Governance Committee performs an annual evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole, the committees of the Board and the contributions of individual directors and provides a report to the Board on the findings of this evaluation. In addition, each committee assesses its own performance annually.

(g)Compensation – The Nominating and Governance Committee recommends to the Board the compensation for directors and supervises any changes to the fees to be paid pursuant to the master services agreement (it is the policy of the Managing General Partner that management directors do

not receive compensation for their service on the Board).
