to attend the Meeting and personally exercise online (as proxy of the Trustee) the votes attached to the special voting share that you (as registered holder of Partnership exchangeable units)
would otherwise be entitled to instruct the Trustee to vote on your behalf. Once you have obtained a proxy from the Trustee, you must then submit your completed form of proxy as instructed AND register any appointed proxyholder online.
Registering your proxyholder is an additional step that must be completed AFTER you have submitted your proxy to the Trustee. Failure to register your proxyholder will result in the proxyholder not receiving a Username, which is used as their
online sign-in credentials and is required for them to attend the Meeting.

Step 1 – Submit your form of proxy: To appoint someone (including yourself or a third-party)
as proxyholder other than the management proxyholders, insert that person’s name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy provided by the Trustee and then follow the instructions for submitting such form of proxy. This must be completed
before registering the proxyholder, which is an additional step to be completed once you have submitted your form of proxy.

Voting
Shares
If you have already voted your shares or Partnership exchangeable units by sending in a proxy, or voted via telephone or internet, you do not
need to take any further action. However, if you attend the Meeting online and vote at the Meeting, you will be revoking any and all previously submitted proxies.
The proxy card included with the proxy materials previously distributed will not be updated to reflect the change in location and may continue to be used to
vote your shares in connection with the Meeting.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Meeting, please vote as soon
as possible by one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Meeting to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the Meeting. The 2019 Annual Report and Proxy Statement are available at
