L.P.</font> was established by Brookfield Asset Management as its primary
vehicle to own and operate certain infrastructure assets on a global basis.
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. Its current business consists of the ownership
and operation of premier electricity transmission systems, timberlands and
social infrastructure in North and South America, the United Kingdom and
Australia, 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. For more information, please visit
