Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (the &#8220;Partnership&#8221;) (NYSE: BIP) today
announced completion by its Canadian operations of the acquisition of the
Ontario transmission system of Great Lakes Power Limited, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (&#8220;Brookfield&#8221;) (NYSE/TSX: BAM).
The transfer has received regulatory approval and is part of a previously
announced agreement.</font></div>

purchase price of $91.6 million, plus the assumption of long-term debt, was
funded with cash on hand. The transfer was contemplated at the time of the
Partnership&#8217;s spin-off from Brookfield and was reflected in the pro-forma
financial statements set out in the Partnership&#8217;s prospectus issued in
connection with the spin-off.</font></div>

Ontario transmission assets comprise 550 km of 44 kV to 230 kV transmission
lines in Northern Ontario, Canada, and make up an important component of
Ontario's transmission system that connects generation in Northern Ontario to
electricity demand in Southern Ontario.</font></div>

L.P.</font> was established by Brookfield Asset Management as its primary
vehicle to own and operate certain infrastructure assets on a global
basis.&#160;&#160;The Partnership&#8217;s sole material asset is its 60% limited
partnership interest in Brookfield Infrastructure L.P. (together with its
subsidiaries, &#8220;Brookfield Infrastructure&#8221;). Brookfield Infrastructure operates
high quality, long-life assets that generate stable cash flows, require
relatively minimal maintenance capital expenditures and, by virtue of barriers
to entry and other characteristics, tend to appreciate in value over
time.&#160;&#160;Its current business consists of the ownership and operation of
premier electricity transmission systems and timberlands in North and South
America, and it seeks acquisition opportunities in other infrastructure sectors
with similar attributes. The Partnership&#8217;s units trade on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol BIP.</font></div>
