Introductory Note.

As previously disclosed on August 9, 2021, in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by American National Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), with Brookfield Asset Management Reinsurance Partners Ltd., an exempted company limited by shares existing under the laws of Bermuda (“Parent”), and Freestone Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”).

On May 25, 2022 (the “Closing Date”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

The foregoing description of the Merger and the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on August 9, 2021, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information contained in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

Effect on Capital Stock

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) was converted into the right to receive $190.00 in cash without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), for total Merger Consideration of approximately $5.1 billion.

Equity Awards

In addition, at the Effective Time, each outstanding and unvested restricted share award and restricted stock unit award, whether vested or unvested, was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to such award prior to the Effective Time.

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

The information set forth under the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.01.

On May 25, 2022, in connection with the completion of the Merger, the Company notified Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “NASDAQ”) of the consummation of the Merger and requested that the NASDAQ delist the Common Stock. The Company has requested that NASDAQ file with the SEC a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 to report that the Common Stock will no longer be listed on the NASDAQ.

The Company intends to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), requesting the termination of the Company’s Section 12 registration and reporting obligations under Section 13 of the Exchange Act and the suspension of the Company’s reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, in each case with respect to the Common Stock.

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information set forth under the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.03.

In connection with the Merger and at the Effective Time, holders of the Common Stock immediately prior to such time ceased to have any rights as stockholders of the Company (other than their right to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement).

Item 5.01. Changes in Control of Registrant.

The information set forth under the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.01.

In connection with the Merger and at the Effective Time, a change in control of the Company occurred and Merger Sub has been merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and as an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Effective as of the Effective Time, each member of the board of directors of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time ceased to be a director of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. The members of the board of directors of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time were Ross Rankin Moody, James Edward Pozzi, Frances Anne Moody-Dahlberg, Irwin M. Herz, Jr., Arthur Oleen Dummer, James Daniel Yarbrough, Elvin Jerome Pederson, William Crane Ansell, James Parker Payne and Erle Douglas McLeod.

The board of directors of the surviving corporation effective as of, and immediately following, the Effective Time, consisted of the members of the board of directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, being Jonathan Bayer, Sachin Shah, Anne Schaumburg and Gregory E.A. Morrison. Each director will hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the surviving corporation until their respective successors shall have been duly elected, designated and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the surviving corporation.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

At the Effective Time, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws were amended and restated in their entirety to be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and are filed herewith as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On May 25, 2022, the Company and Parent issued a joint press release announcing the completion of the acquisition. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

AMERICAN NATIONAL GROUP, INC.,

a Delaware corporation

(the “Corporation”)

Article I — Stockholders

1. Place of Meetings. Meetings of the stockholders for the election of directors or for any other purpose shall be held at such time and place, either within or without the State of Delaware, as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of the stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication in the manner authorized by Section 211 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”).

2. Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held for the election of directors each year at such place, date and time as shall be designated by the Board of Directors. Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting. If no date for the annual meeting is established or said meeting is not held on the date established as provided above, a special meeting in lieu thereof may be held or there may be action by written consent of the stockholders on matters to be voted on at the annual meeting, and such special meeting or written consent shall have for the purposes of these By-laws or otherwise all the force and effect of an annual meeting.

3. Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders may be called by the Chief Executive Officer, if one is elected, or, if there is no Chief Executive Officer, the President, or by the Board of Directors, but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons. The call for the meeting shall state the place, date, hour and purposes of the meeting. Only the purposes specified in the notice of special meeting (or any supplement thereto) shall be considered or dealt with at such special meeting.

4. Notice of Meetings. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a notice stating the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes of the meeting, shall be given by the Secretary (or other person authorized by these By-laws or by law) not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat and to each stockholder who, under the Certificate of Incorporation or under these By-laws is entitled to such notice. If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, directed to such stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears in the records of the Corporation. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be effectively given to stockholders, any notice to stockholders may be given by electronic transmission in the manner provided in Section 232 of the DGCL.

Any meeting of the stockholders may be adjourned or postponed from time to time for any reason by the presiding officer of such meeting or by the Board of Directors, without the need for approval thereof by stockholders to reconvene or convene, respectively at the same or some other place. If a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, except that if the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

5. Quorum. The holders of a majority in interest of all stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at a meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. Any meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of the votes properly cast upon the question, whether or not a quorum is present. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.

6. Voting and Proxies. Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation or by law, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder that has voting power upon the matter in question. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by either written proxy or by a transmission permitted by Section 212(c) of the DGCL, but no proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period or is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Proxies shall be filed with the secretary of the meeting, or of any adjournment thereof. Except as otherwise limited therein, proxies shall entitle the persons authorized thereby to vote at any adjournment of such meeting.

7. Action at Meeting. When a quorum is present, any matter before the meeting shall be decided by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock voting on such matter except where a larger vote is required by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-laws. Any election of directors by stockholders shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast, except where a larger vote is required by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-laws. The Corporation shall not directly or indirectly vote any share of its own stock; provided, however, that the Corporation may vote shares that it holds in a fiduciary capacity to the extent permitted by law.

8. Presiding Officer. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if one is elected, or in his or her absence, the Vice Chairman of the Board, if one is elected, or if neither is elected or in their absence, the President. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to appoint a temporary presiding officer to preside over any meeting of the stockholders if the Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman of the Board or the President is unable to do so for any reason.

2

9. Conduct of Meetings. The Board of Directors may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board of Directors, the presiding officer of any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such presiding officer, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the presiding officer of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iii) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the Board of Directors or the presiding officer of the meeting shall determine; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the presiding officer of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

10. Action without a Meeting. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required or permitted by law to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office, by hand or by certified mail, return receipt requested, or to the Corporation’s principal place of business or to the officer of the Corporation having custody of the minute book. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature and no written consent shall be effective unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered pursuant to these By-laws, written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders entitled to take action are delivered to the Corporation in the manner set forth in these By-laws. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

11. Stockholder Lists. The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date. Nothing contained in this Section 11 of this Article I shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting in the manner provided by law. The list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting as provided by law.

Article II — Directors

1. Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of a Board of Directors who may exercise all the powers of the Corporation except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-laws.

Such resignation shall be effective upon receipt unless it is specified to be effective at some other time or upon the happening of some other event.

5. Removal. To the extent permitted by law, a director may be removed from office with or without cause by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors.

6. Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time, date and place as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine.

Directors may participate in meetings of the Board of Directors by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all directors participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting in accordance herewith shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of Directors consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, and the writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions are filed with the records of the meetings of the Board of Directors. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

Article V — Indemnification

1. Right to Indemnification. Subject to Section 3 of this Article V of these By-laws, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as it now exists or may be hereinafter amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), any individual or firm (a “Covered Person”) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) (a “Proceeding”), including, but not limited to, serving as a witness without being named a defendant or respondent, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, advisory director, or officer of the Corporation, including, but not limited to, any individual or firm who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, advisory director, officer, partner, trustee, or administrator of any majority-owned subsidiary or an employment benefit plan of the Corporation, against all expense, liability and loss suffered (including, but not limited to, attorneys’

8

fees judgments, penalties, fines, excise taxes, and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Covered Person in connection therewith; provided, however, that, except as provided in this Article V with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

2. Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that (i), to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the Covered Person to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article V or otherwise and (ii) such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of a written affirmation by such Covered Person of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Corporation under this Article V.

3. Success on the Merits or Otherwise. To the extent that a Covered Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding referred to in Section 1 of this Article V, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such Covered Person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such Covered Person in connection therewith.

4. Requirement to Authorize Indemnification in each Specific Case. Any indemnification under Section 1 of this Article V (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Covered Person is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 of this Article V. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a Covered Person: (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such Proceeding, though less than a quorum, (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iv) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

5. Nonexclusive Rights. The rights conferred on any Covered Person by this Article V shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which such Covered Person may be entitled under any law, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

6. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, advisory director, officer or employee of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, advisory director, officer, partner, trustee, administrator or employee of any majority-owned subsidiary or an employment benefit plan of the Corporation, against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this Article V.

9

7. Indemnification of Employees and Agents of the Corporation. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article V with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of Covered Persons under this Article V.

8. General. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article V shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, advisory director, officer or employee of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrator of such a person. Any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of any Covered Person arising hereunder shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to or repeal of these By-laws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of a Proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought. The Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any Covered Person who was or is serving at its request as a director, advisory director, officer, partner, trustee, administrator or employee of any majority-owned subsidiary or an employment benefit plan of the Corporation shall be reduced by any amount such Covered Person may collect as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other majority-owned subsidiary or an employment benefit plan of the Corporation.

Article VI — Miscellaneous Provisions

10

6. Corporate Records. The original or attested copies of the Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws and records of all meetings of the incorporators, stockholders and the Board of Directors and the stock and transfer records, which shall contain the names of all stockholders, their record addresses and the amount of stock held by each, shall be kept at the principal office of the Corporation, at the office of its counsel, or at an office of its transfer agent.

7. Certificate of Incorporation. All references in these By-laws to the Certificate of Incorporation shall be deemed to refer to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended and in effect from time to time.

Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting needs to be specified in any written waiver or any waiver by electronic transmission.
