BIP Distributions

Distributions to our unitholders are determined by our general partner. Our general partner has adopted a distribution policy under which our partnership currently pays quarterly cash distributions of US$0.455 per unit.

Currency Option

The quarterly distributions payable on the Partnership's L.P. Units are declared in U.S. dollars.

Registered unitholders who are U.S. residents receive their distributions in U.S. dollars, unless they request the Canadian. dollar equivalent. Beginning with the Q4 2016 distribution, registered unitholders who are Canadian residents and beneficial unitholders whose units are registered in the name of CDS or a name other than their own name (i.e., generally those holding their L.P. Units with a Canadian brokerage), will receive their distributions in the Canadian dollar equivalent, unless they request to receive distributions in U.S. dollars. The Canadian dollar equivalent of the quarterly distribution is based on the Bank of Canada closing exchange rate on the record date for the distribution.

Enrollment

Registered Unitholders

Registered unitholders wishing to receive the U.S. dollar distribution equivalent should contact Brookfield Infrastructure's transfer agent, Computershare, in writing at P.O. Box 30170 College Station TX 77842-3170 or by phone at 1-877-243-3717.

Beneficial Unitholders

Beneficial unitholders whose units are registered in the name of CDS or a name other than their own name (i.e., generally those holding their L.P. Units with a Canadian brokerage), should contact their broker if they would like to receive the U.S. dollar election.

Note: 

• Distributions have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the BIPC special distribution, as well as the 3-for-2 unit splits completed in September 2016 and June 2022.
• Actual distribution amounts may differ slightly due to rounding.

Registered holders of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P.'s units who are resident in Canada, the United States or Australia have the opportunity to acquire additional units by reinvesting all or a portion of their cash distributions without paying commissions through our Distribution Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”). Holders in other jurisdictions may participate in the Plan provided that there are not any laws or governmental regulations that may limit or prohibit them from participating in the Plan.

Beginning with the Q2 2015 distribution, beneficial holders whose units are registered in the name of CDS & Co. (“CDS”) or a name other than their own name (i.e., generally those holding their L.P. Units with a Canadian brokerage) should now be able to participate in the Plan.

Units purchased under the Plan will be issued from treasury at a price per unit (the “Market Price”) calculated by reference to the volume weighted average of the trading price (in U.S. dollars) for the units on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) for the five trading days immediately preceding the date on which the relevant distribution is paid by the Partnership.
