UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (“BIP” or the “partnership”), alongside institutional partners (the “IPL consortium”), announced its intention to acquire (the “Offer”) the remaining outstanding shares of Inter Pipeline Ltd. (“IPL”) not already owned by the IPL consortium (the “acquisition”), through Bison Acquisition Corp. Each IPL shareholder (“Shareholder”) will have the ability to elect to receive, per IPL share, C$20.00 in cash, 0.25 of a class A exchangeable subordinate voting share (“BIPC Share”) of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation (“BIPC”) or 0.25 of a Class B exchangeable limited partnership unit (“Exchangeable LP Unit”) of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation Exchange Limited Partnership. The acquisition will be fully financed, with a maximum aggregate number of BIPC Shares and Exchangeable LP Units issued of approximately 31 million. Up to an additional 5 million Exchangeable LP Units are issuable in connection with the supplementary election. Subsequent to the acquisition, we expect that BIP will hold an approximate 51% interest in IPL (IPL consortium total of 100%).
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the acquisition. These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared by applying pro forma adjustments to the historical consolidated financial statements of the partnership incorporated by reference in the prospectus/offer to exchange, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and forms a part of a Registration Statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-253365-01) as amended. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position gives effect to the Offer as if it had occurred on June 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 give effect to the Offer as if it had occurred on January 1, 2020. All pro forma adjustments and their underlying assumptions are described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements.
These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the partnership’s and IPL’s respective financial statements as described below. In preparing these pro forma consolidated financial statements, management of the partnership has made certain assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are not intended to be indicative of the results that would have actually occurred, had the events reflected therein occurred on the dates indicated, and do not purport to project the future financial position of the partnership. Actual amounts recorded upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Offer will differ from these unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. Readers are cautioned to not place undue reliance on these unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements.
All amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars, except where noted.

Notes to the Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Description of the Transaction
Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (our “partnership” and, together with its subsidiaries and operating entities, “Brookfield Infrastructure”) owns and operates utilities, transport, midstream and data businesses in North and South America, Europe and the Asia Pacific region. Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation (“BIPC”) and its subsidiaries own and operate regulated utilities investments in Brazil and the U.K. BIPC is a subsidiary of our partnership.
The partnership, alongside institutional partners (the “IPL consortium”), announced its intention to acquire the remaining outstanding shares of Inter Pipeline Ltd. (“IPL”) not already owned by the IPL consortium (the “acquisition”), through Bison Acquisition Corp. Each Shareholder will have the ability to elect to receive, per IPL share, C$20.00 in cash, 0.25 of a BIPC Share, or 0.25 of an Exchangeable LP Unit. The acquisition will be fully financed, with a maximum aggregate number of BIPC Shares and Exchangeable LP Units issued of approximately 31 million. Up to an additional 5 million Exchangeable LP Units are issuable in connection with the supplementary election. Subsequent to the acquisition, we expect that BIP will hold an approximate 51% interest in IPL (IPL consortium total of 100%).
These pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the partnership for inclusion in the prospectus/offer to exchange, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and forms a part of a Registration Statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-253365-01), as amended August 11, 2021 (the “prospectus/offer to exchange”) to reflect the impact of the acquisition. Management of IPL has not participated in the preparation of these pro forma consolidated financial statements. The pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared from and should be read in conjunction with:
• | the audited annual financial statements of the partnership, together with the notes thereto, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020; |
• | the unaudited interim financial statements of the partnership, together with the notes thereto, as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2021; |
• | the audited annual financial statements of IPL, together with the notes thereto, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in the prospectus/offer to exchange; and |
• | the unaudited interim financial statements of IPL, together with the notes thereto, as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included in Exhibit 99.1 hereto. |
As of the date of these pro forma consolidated financial statements, the partnership is not in a position to independently assess or verify certain of the information in IPL’s publicly filed documents, including its financial statements. IPL has not reviewed these pro forma consolidated financial statements and has not confirmed the accuracy and completeness of the information in respect of IPL contained herein. All pro forma financial information regarding IPL included herein has been derived from IPL’s public reports and securities filings. While the partnership has no reason to believe that such publicly filed information is inaccurate or incomplete, the partnership does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any such information.
In preparing these pro forma consolidated financial statements, management of the partnership has made certain assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these pro forma consolidated financial statements. Such pro forma consolidated financial statements are not intended to be indicative of the results that would have actually occurred, had the events reflected therein occurred on the dates indicated, and do not purport to project the future financial position of the partnership. Actual amounts recorded upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the prospectus/offer to exchange will differ from such pro forma consolidated financial statements. Shareholders are cautioned to not place undue reliance on such pro forma consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications were made in respect of IPL’s financial statement presentation to conform to
6
the partnership’s financial statement presentation. Net income reported by IPL were reallocated to components of the partnership’s equity and basic and diluted earnings (loss) per unit attributable to limited partners were recalculated based on units outstanding during the period presented.
2. Pro Forma Adjustments to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position
The proposed acquisition of IPL has been accounted for as a business combination, whereby the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recorded at the estimated fair value on the Offer date of August 11, 2021. The fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired were estimated based on information available in the public domain at the time of preparation of these pro forma financial statements. Actual amounts recognized by the partnership on the effective date of the proposed transaction, if consummated, may differ materially from these estimates. In addition, for the purpose of the pro forma consolidated financial statements, it is assumed that 31 million BIPC Shares and no Exchangeable LP Units are issued in connection with the acquisition. If 5 million Exchangeable LP Units were issued in connection with the acquisition as a result of the supplementary election, there would be a decrease in the cash consideration payable by our partnership and a corresponding increase in non-controlling interest attributable to Exchangeable LP Units of approximately $400 million. Alternatively, if Shareholders elect to receive all-cash consideration, there would be an increase in cash consideration payable by BIP and a corresponding decrease in non-controlling interest attributable to BIPC Shares of approximately $2.4 billion.
The following table provides the preliminary purchase price equation:
(In US$ millions, unless otherwise noted)(1) | ||||

|
|
(1) | Total consideration is calculated based upon the assumptions that there are 429.2 million outstanding IPL shares. Shareholders will have the ability to elect to receive, per IPL share, C$20.00 in cash, 0.25 of a BIPC Share, or 0.25 of an Exchangeable LP Unit. The pro forma consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming that total consideration attributed to the partnership of $3.9 billion will be comprised of $2.4 billion of BIPC Shares, cash consideration, and our pre-existing interest. For the purposes of the pro forma financial statements, it is assumed that 31 million BIPC Shares and no Exchangeable LP Units are issued in association with the acquisition. Total consortium consideration of $7.6 billion will be comprised of consideration from the partnership as noted above, IPL consortium’s pre-existing interest, and cash consideration from institutional partners (presented as non-controlling interests) that will be paid to the Shareholders. |
7
(2) | For the purposes of the pro forma consolidated financial statements, a BIPC Share price of $79.03 has been ascribed based on the closing price of the BIPC Shares on July 14, 2021 of C$95.41 converted to U.S. dollars using May 31, 2021 spot exchange rate of C$1 = US$0.8284. |
(3) | As at June 30, 2021, the IPL consortium held an aggregate economic interest in approximately 84 million shares of IPL, representing approximately 19% of the issued and outstanding shares of IPL on an undiluted basis (BIP’s share—~6% interest). This position is comprised of shares of IPL and cash-settled total return swaps. BIP’s share of the interest was accounted for as a financial asset and had a fair market value of $291 million as at June 30, 2021, net of associated non-recourse borrowings. |
(4) | Represents the consideration paid for the interest acquired by the IPL consortium excluding the partnership, measured at fair value. This amount includes the pre-existing interest held by the IPL consortium other than interest held by the partnership. |
a) | Borrowings, non-controlling interests attributable to BIPC Shares, and partnership capital attributable to holders of LP, RPU, GP and Brookfield Infrastructure Partners Exchange LP Units and BIPC Shares were adjusted to reflect the post transaction allocation of the purchase price consideration and share consideration. |
b) | Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were remeasured to fair value. Differences between the fair value of consideration paid and the carrying values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been reflected as adjustments to the respective balances where public fair value information is available (refer to note d below). The remaining difference was allocated to property, plant and equipment as the majority of the value of the business is derived from property, plant and equipment. The increase to deferred tax liabilities represents the tax impact of the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of net assets. The increase in deferred tax liabilities was calculated based on a tax rate of 23%, which represents the statutory tax rate of IPL as disclosed in Note 7 of IPL’s financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. The recognition of deferred tax liabilities resulted in a corresponding increase in goodwill for the same amount. Readers are cautioned that changes to the assumptions used could have a material impact on the fair values. |
c) | Accounts payable and other include (i) $135 million of estimated transaction costs and (ii) the break fee payable by IPL to Pembina Pipeline Corporation of C$350 million (or approximately $280 million), both of which are non-recurring. |
d) | Non-recourse borrowings was adjusted to account for the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of IPL’s fixed rate debt as disclosed in Note 10 of IPL’s Q2 2021 interim financial statements. In estimating the impact on interest expense, an average interest rate of ~4% was applied, estimated using IPL’s interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 divided by average debt. |
3. Pro Forma Adjustments to the Consolidated Statements of Operating Results
The Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operating Results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 have been adjusted to give effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the prospectus/offer to exchange as if the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares and associated rights of IPL had occurred on January 1, 2020.
a) | Depreciation and amortization expense has been adjusted to reflect the incremental pro forma fair value of property, plant and equipment. |
b) | Interest expenses have been adjusted to reflect incremental borrowings at the partnership level to fund the cash component of the transaction. |
c) | Deferred income taxes have been adjusted at a tax rate of 23%, to approximate the tax impacts of the adjustments noted above. The rate is based on the statutory tax rate of IPL as disclosed in Note 7 of IPL’s financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 and therefore would be applicable to the incremental pro forma adjustment related to depreciation and interest expense. |

4. Master Services Agreement with Brookfield
Brookfield and its subsidiaries provide management services to the partnership pursuant to our Master Services Agreement. Pursuant to our Master Services Agreement, on a quarterly basis, the partnership pays a base management fee to the Service Provider equal to 0.3125% (1.25% annually) of the market value of our partnership. For purposes of calculating the base management fee, the market value of our partnership is equal to the aggregate value of all the outstanding units, preferred units and securities of the other service recipients, which includes BIPC, plus all outstanding third party debt with recourse to a service recipient, less all cash held by such entities. Based on $2.4 billion of BIPC Shares assumed to be issued in connection with the acquisition, the base management fee is expected to increase by $30 million annually.
