Brookfield (BN) agreed to issue 6 million Class A preferred shares, on a bought-deal basis, to a syndicate of underwriters for a total of 150 million Canadian dollars ($105.6 million), the company said Thursday.

The company also granted the underwriters an option to purchase up to 2 million additional preferred shares of the same series, potentially increasing the offering size to CA$200 million if fully exercised, according to the statement.

Brookfield expects to close the offering on or about Oct. 22 and said proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.
