PARTNERSHIP CAPITAL PARTNERSHIP CAPITAL
As at June 30, 2023, our partnership’s capital structure was comprised of three classes of partnership units: limited partnership units, preferred units and general partnership units. Limited partnership units entitle the holder to their proportionate share of distributions. Preferred units entitle the holder to cumulative preferential cash distributions in accordance with their terms. General partnership units entitle the holder to the right to govern the financial and operating policies of our partnership. The Holding LP’s capital structure is composed of four classes of partnership units: special general partner units, Holding LP Class A preferred units, managing general partner units and redeemable partnership units held by Brookfield.
On June 10, 2022, Brookfield Infrastructure completed a three-for-two split of our units, BIPC exchangeable shares, Exchange LP Units, and BIPC exchangeable LP units, by way of a subdivision whereby unitholders/shareholders received an additional one-half of a unit/share for each unit/share held. The Managing General Partner Units, Special General Partner Units and Redeemable Partnership Units of the Holding LP were concurrently split. Brookfield Infrastructure’s preferred units were not affected by the split.

Our partnership has implemented a distribution reinvestment plan (the “Plan”) that allows eligible holders of our partnership to purchase additional units by reinvesting their cash distributions. Under the Plan, units are acquired at a price per unit calculated by reference to the volume weighted average of the trading price for our units on the New York Stock Exchange for the five trading days immediately preceding the relevant distribution date. During the six-month period ending June 30, 2023, our partnership issued 0.3 million units for proceeds of $8 million (2022: 0.2 million units for proceeds of $8 million).

In total, $293 million net proceeds were raised. The notes do not have a fixed maturity date and are not redeemable at the option of the holders, therefore the notes are classified as non-controlling interest. The perpetual subordinated notes also provide Brookfield Infrastructure, at its discretion, the right to defer the interest (in whole or in part) indefinitely.
