EXPLANATORY NOTE
DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 (the "Post-Effective Amendment") relates to the Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-273180) registering $1,500,000,000 of Brookfield Business Holdings Corporation (formerly Brookfield Business Corporation) (the "Registrant") class A exchangeable subordinate voting shares ("Old BBUC Exchangeable Shares") and 47,244,876 Old BBUC Exchangeable Shares held by certain selling securityholders, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 7, 2023, as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 on Form F-3 on September 8, 2023, and declared effective by the SEC on September 18, 2023 (as amended, the "Registration Statement"). This Post-Effective Amendment is being filed by the Registrant to deregister any and all securities of the Registrant registered by the Registrant that remain unsold pursuant to the Registration Statement.
On March 27, 2026, pursuant to an arrangement agreement dated as of November 6, 2025, Brookfield Business Corporation (formerly 1559985 B.C. Ltd.) (the "Corporation"), the Registrant and Brookfield Business Partners L.P. ("BBU") completed a court approved plan of arrangement under section 288 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Arrangement"), pursuant to which, among other things, holders of Old BBUC Exchangeable Shares and holders of BBU non-voting limited partnership units ("BBU Units") received class A subordinated voting shares of the Corporation in exchange for their BBU Units and Old BBUC Exchangeable Shares on a one-for-one basis. As a result of the Arrangement, the Registrant and BBU became subsidiaries of the Corporation.
As a result of the consummation of the Arrangement, the offerings of Old BBUC Exchangeable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement are being terminated. Accordingly, the Registrant is terminating all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement and deregistering the remaining securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statement and hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Registrant, by filing this Post-Effective Amendment, hereby removes from registration any and all securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statement and hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. This filing is made in accordance with an undertaking in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that were registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
