BERMUDA--(Marketwire - November 16, 2009) - Brookfield Infrastructure Partners
L.P. (the "Partnership", along with its related entities, "Brookfield
Infrastructure") (NYSE: <font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline">BIP</font>) (TSX: <font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline">BIP.UN</font>) today
announced that at a special meeting of unitholders of the Partnership held
today, minority unitholders approved, by approximately 97% of the votes cast, an
additional investment by Brookfield Asset Management Inc. and its affiliates
("Brookfield") in Brookfield Infrastructure (the "Brookfield Investment"). As a
result, Brookfield Infrastructure will issue approximately $285 million of
additional redeemable partnership units and general partner units to Brookfield,
allowing Brookfield to maintain its approximate 41% interest in Brookfield
Infrastructure, following the Partnership's recently completed public offering.
The proceeds will be used by Brookfield Infrastructure to finance, in part, its
participation in the previously announced transaction involving the
restructuring and recapitalization of Babcock &amp; Brown Infrastructure, which
is expected to close on November 20, 2009.</font></div>

Infrastructure Partners L.P. was established by Brookfield Asset Management 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's units trade on the New York and Toronto Stock
Exchanges under the symbols BIP and BIP.UN, respectively. For more information,

effectively complete new acquisitions in the competitive infrastructure space
and to integrate acquisitions into existing operations, and other risks and
factors described in the documents filed by the Partnership with the securities
