syndicate of underwriters at a price of $37.75 per L.P. unit (the &#147;Offering Price&#148;) for gross proceeds of $214,310,525 (the &#147;Offering&#148;). In addition, Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: BAM) (TSX:&nbsp;BAM), (EURONEXT: BAMA)
and its related entities (other than Brookfield Infrastructure) (collectively, &#147;Brookfield&#148;) will purchase, directly or indirectly, 2,262,900&nbsp;redeemable partnership units of Brookfield Infrastructure&#146;s holding limited partnership
(&#147;RPUs&#148;) at the Offering Price (net of underwriting commissions) concurrent with the Offering in order to maintain its approximate 30% interest in Brookfield Infrastructure on a fully exchanged basis. The aggregate gross proceeds of the
Offering and the placement of RPUs to Brookfield will be $296,318,021. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Brookfield Infrastructure has granted the underwriters an
over-allotment option, exercisable in whole or in part for a period of 30&nbsp;days following closing of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional 851,565 L.P. units at the Offering Price. Brookfield will also have the option to subscribe for
additional RPUs in order to maintain its approximate 30% interest on a fully exchanged basis. If both of these options are exercised in full, the gross offering size would increase to $340,765,724. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The net proceeds of the Offering and the issuance of RPUs to Brookfield will be used for investment opportunities, working capital and other general
corporate purposes. Prior to being deployed for such purposes, the net proceeds will initially be used to repay amounts outstanding under Brookfield Infrastructure&#146;s revolving credit facilities. The Offering and issuance of RPUs to Brookfield
are expected to close on or about May&nbsp;13, 2013. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Offer Documents </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
