These forward-looking statements and information are not historical facts but reflect our current expectations regarding future results or events and are based on information currently available to us and on assumptions we believe are reasonable. Although we believe that our anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements and information are based on reasonable assumptions and expectations, the reader should not place undue reliance on forward- looking statements and information because they involve assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements and information.

If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations and our plans and strategies may vary materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements and information herein. Factors that could cause actual results of Brookfield Infrastructure to differ materially from those contemplated or implied by the statements in this presentation include general economic and political conditions in the jurisdictions in which we operate and elsewhere which may impact the markets for our products and services, the ability to achieve growth within Brookfield Infrastructure's businesses and in particular completion on time and on budget of various large capital projects, which themselves depend on access to capital and continuing favorable commodity prices, the impact of market conditions on our businesses, the fact that success of Brookfield Infrastructure is dependent on market demand for an infrastructure company, which is unknown, the performance of global capital markets, the availability and terms of equity and debt financing for Brookfield Infrastructure, the ability to effectively complete transactions in the competitive infrastructure space (including the ability to complete announced and potential transactions that may be subject to conditions precedent, and the inability to reach final agreement with counterparties to transactions being currently pursued, given that there can be no assurance that any such transaction will be agreed to or completed) and to integrate acquisitions into existing operations, the future performance of these acquisitions, the market conditions of key commodities, the price, supply or demand for which can have a significant impact upon the financial and operating performance of our business, changes in technology which have the potential to disrupt the business and industries in which we invest, uncertainty with respect to future sources of investment opportunities, our ability to achieve the milestones necessary to deliver the targeted returns to our unitholders, our active pipeline of new investment opportunities and growing backlog of committed organic growth capital expenditure projects may not be completed as planned, and other risks and factors described in the documents filed by Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (the "Partnership") with the securities regulators in Canada and the United States including under "Risk Factors" in the Partnership's most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, its most recent interim report, and the prospectus qualifying the special distribution of BIPC's shares. Except as required by law, Brookfield Infrastructure undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES To measure performance we focus on net income as well as funds from operations ("FFO"), adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO"), adjusted EBITDA, rate base, return on rate base, adjusted EBITDA to interest ratio, consolidated leverage, corporate interest coverage, constant currency basis and adjusted EBITDA margin, which we refer to throughout this presentation. We define FFO as net income excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, breakage and transaction costs and non-cash valuation gains or losses. We define AFFO as FFO less maintenance capital expenditures. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, interest expense, current and deferred income taxes, breakage and transaction costs and non-cash valuation gains or losses. We define rate base as a regulated or notionally stipulated asset base. We define return on rate base as adjusted EBITDA divided by time weighted average rate base. We define adjusted EBITDA to interest ratio as adjusted EBITDA divided by interest expense on a proportionate basis, taking into account Brookfield Infrastructure's ownership in operations. We define consolidated leverage as net debt divided by net debt plus the market value of Brookfield Infrastructure based on the closing price of Brookfield Infrastructure's units on the New York Stock Exchange (assuming full conversion of Brookfield's interest in Brookfield Infrastructure into units of Brookfield Infrastructure). We define corporate interest coverage as AFFO plus interest expense incurred on corporate debt divided by interest expense incurred on corporate debt. We define constant currency basis as current period earnings translated at prior period foreign exchange rates which allows the Partnership to remove the impact of changes in rates from our operating results. We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues. These measures are not calculated in accordance with, and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). These measures are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures have limitations as analytical tools. See the Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures section of the Partnership's most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F and most recent interim report for a more fulsome discussion including reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures.
