| | Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows:
On July 21, 2026, BIP, Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation ("BIPC") and Brookfield Infrastructure Partners Inc. ("BIP Inc.") entered into an arrangement agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to implement an arrangement (the "Transaction") to simplify BIP's and BIPC's corporate structure by converting BIP and BIPC into a single Canadian publicly traded corporate entity, BIP Inc.
The Transaction will be implemented pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), and completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including obtaining the approval of the holders of Units (the "Unitholders") and approval by the British Columbia Supreme Court. If the Transaction is approved by the Unitholders but not by the holders of class A exchangeable subordinate voting shares ("BIPC Shares") of BIPC (the "Shareholders"), the Transaction will still be completed except that the exchange of BIPC Shares (the "Share Exchange"), as described below, will not occur. A special meeting of Unitholders and a special meeting of Shareholders have been called for October 14, 2026, and security holders of record as of close of business on August 21, 2026 will be entitled to vote at the meetings.
If the Transaction is approved by both the Unitholders and Shareholders, and subject to satisfaction of other conditions, BIP and BIPC will implement the Transaction, pursuant to which, among other things, all Units, BIPC Shares, exchangeable limited partnership units of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners Exchange LP, a subsidiary of BIP, class B exchangeable limited partnership units of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation Exchange Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of BIP, Class A.2 Shares and redemption-exchange limited partner units of Brookfield Infrastructure L.P. ("BILP") will be exchanged, directly or indirectly, for newly issued class A subordinate voting shares of BIP Inc. ("BIP Inc. Class A Shares") on a one-for-one basis. In addition, the class A common shares of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners Limited, the general partner of BIP, will be exchanged for class B multiple voting shares of BIP Inc. ("BIP Inc. Class B Shares"), and the special general partner units of BILP, held by a subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management Ltd., will be exchanged for class I non-voting incentive shares of BIP Inc. ("BIP Inc. Class I Shares"). The newly issued BIP Inc. Class A Shares are expected to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.
Following completion of the Transaction and based on their current ownership and the aggregate number of issued and outstanding BIPC Shares, Class A.2 Shares and Units, (i) Brookfield and its subsidiaries are expected to own 204,711,975 BIP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 26.4% of the issued and outstanding BIP Inc. Class A Shares (and 204,711,975 BIP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 30.9% of the issued and outstanding BIP Inc. Class A Shares if the Share Exchange does not occur), 45,776 BIP Inc. Class B Shares, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding BIP Inc. Class B Shares (which BIP Inc. Class B Shares will be entitled to cast, in the aggregate, a number of votes equal to the number of outstanding BIP Inc. Class A Shares held on the record date for determining the BIP Inc. shareholders entitled to vote at the applicable meeting minus 100), (ii) BNT and its subsidiaries are expected to own 3,287,267 BIP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 0.4% of the issued and outstanding BIP Inc. Class A Shares (and 3,287,267 BIP Inc. Class A Shares, representing approximately 0.5% of the issued and outstanding BIP Inc. Class A Shares if the Share Exchange does not occur), (iii) Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. and its subsidiaries are expected to own 2,400,631 BIP Inc. Class I Shares, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding BIP Inc. Class I Shares and (iv) BIP Inc. will own all of the issued and outstanding Units, redemption-exchange limited partnership units of BILP, Class A.2 Shares and, assuming the Share Exchange occurs, BIPC Shares. If the Transaction is completed but the Share Exchange does not occur, Brookfield and its subsidiaries will not own any BIPC Shares.
Further information regarding the Transaction will be contained in a joint management information circular of BIP and BIPC. Subject to the receipt of all required approvals, it is anticipated that the Transaction will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026. |
