BROOKFIELD ASSET MANAGEMENT LTD.

This joint proxy statement/prospectus supplement (this “Supplement”) supplements the joint proxy statement/prospectus, dated October 11, 2023 (as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 thereto, dated October 30, 2023, the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) that was mailed by American Equity Investment Life Holding Company, an Iowa corporation (the “Company”) to its shareholders on or about October 12, 2023 in connection with the proposed merger (“Merger”) of the Company with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company limited by shares (“Parent”). Brookfield Asset Management Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (“BAM”), filed the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as part of a registration statement on Form F-4 (Registration No. 333-274315).

You should read carefully and in their entirety this Supplement and the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and all accompanying annexes and exhibits. In particular, you should review and consider carefully the matters discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

The SEC and state securities regulators have not approved or disapproved these securities or determined if the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or this Supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

This Supplement to the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus is dated November 3, 2023.

As previously disclosed, on July 4, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Parent, Arches Merger Sub, Inc., an Iowa corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and solely for the limited purposes set forth in the Merger Agreement, BAM. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving company in the Merger.

As of the date of this Supplement, the Company, to its knowledge, has received ten (10) demand letters from purported shareholders of the Company (the “Demand Letters”) requesting that the Company provide additional disclosures in a supplement to the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The Demand Letters allege, among other things, that the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus contains incomplete information concerning the Company’s financial projections, as well as the financial analyses conducted by Ardea Partners LP and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, the Company’s financial advisors.

The Company believes that the allegations in the Demand Letters are without merit and that the disclosures set forth in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus comply fully with applicable law. However, in order to avoid the risk of such allegations delaying or adversely affecting the Merger, and to minimize cost and distraction, the Company has determined to voluntarily supplement the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus with the supplemental disclosures set forth below (the “Supplemental Disclosures”). Nothing in this Supplement shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein or in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus. To the contrary, the Company specifically denies all allegations that any additional disclosure was or is required.

The Supplemental Disclosures will not change the consideration to be paid to shareholders of the Company in connection with the Merger or the timing of the special meeting of shareholders of the Company (“Special Meeting”) to be held in-person on Friday, November 10, 2023, at 9:00 A.M. Central Time at 6000 Westown Parkway, West Des Moines, IA 50266.

All page numbers referenced in the Supplemental Disclosures below refer to the page numbers in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus filing by BAM and terms used below, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Where a disclosure has been amended and restated in part, bold and underlined text indicates language that has been inserted, and bold and strikethrough text indicates language that has been deleted. Except as specifically noted herein, the information set forth in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus remains unchanged, and to the extent the information set forth below differs from or conflicts with the information set forth in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the information set forth below shall be deemed to supersede the respective information in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

Ardea used the Forecasts to calculate an illustrative range of implied values for the AEL Common Stock by discounting to present value the total capital return to the Shareholders, as provided to Ardea by AEL’s management, and terminal values. Among other assumptions, Ardea used the following assumptions: (i) a March 31, 2023 valuation date, (ii) a terminal growth rate ranging from 1% to 2% as provided by the Company management, and (iii) discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 11.0% representing a cost of equity range based on an analysis of AEL and the Selected Public Companies’ cost of equity. The total capital return to the Shareholders for the period of 2023 to 2027, as well as the range of terminal values, were discounted to present values as of March 31, 2023 using the mid-year convention for discounting. Ardea arrived at a range of implied equity values, divided that range of implied equity values by the number of fully diluted shares of AEL Common Stock based on 77.89 million common shares outstanding plus dilutive instruments, as provided to Ardea by AEL’s management, assuming AEL continued to operate as a standalone entity, and arrived at a range of implied equity values per share of AEL Common Stock of $46.36 to $63.36.

Dividend Discount Model Analysis. Using the Forecasts, J.P. Morgan conducted a dividend discount analysis to determine a range of implied values for AEL Common Stock based on fully diluted shares outstanding77.89 million common shares outstanding plus dilutive instruments as provided by AEL’s management, assuming AEL continued to operate as a standalone entity. The range was determined by

adding the present value of an estimated future capital return stream for AEL over a five-year period from 2023 through 2027 and the present value of an estimated terminal value at the end of 2027. In performing its analysis, J.P. Morgan made the following assumptions, among others: (i) March 31, 2023 valuation date; (ii) a terminal growth rate of 0.5% to 2.0%, as provided by the Company management; (iii) a cost of equity range of 9.25% to 11.25%, which range was selected by J.P. Morgan based on factors which J.P. Morgan considered appropriate based on its experience and judgment; and (iv) mid-year discounting.

This analysis implied a value of $43.82 to $61.17 per share of AEL Common Stock based on fully diluted shares outstanding77.89 million common shares outstanding plus dilutive instruments as provided by AEL’s management.

On May 3, 2023, AEL and Party C executed a mutual non-disclosure agreement (the “Party C Confidentiality Agreement”) in order to further facilitate discussions regarding a potential merger transaction involving AEL and Party C. The Party C Confidentiality Agreement provided for automatic termination of the standstill contained therein (which included a “don’t ask, don’t waive” clause) upon the AEL Board’s approval of a transaction that would result in the sale of AEL. Ensuing preliminary discussions with Party C continued through May and June but did not lead to significant engagement on a potential transaction structure or terms between Party C and AEL.
