(Brookfield), Partners Limited (Partners), BAM Investments Corp. (Investments) and Brookfield Financial Corp. relating to the limited partnership units (the Units) of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (the Partnership), a limited partnership formed under the laws of Bermuda. The principal executive offices of the Partnership are located at Cannons Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton, HM 12, Bermuda.
This Amendment No. 2 amends and restates, where indicated, the Statement to update and clarify the Reporting Persons and the Scheduled Persons (as defined below) beneficial ownership of Units of the Partnership. Except as set forth herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported by the Reporting Persons in the Statement. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Statement, and unless amended or supplemented hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect.
Item 1. |
Security and Issuer |
|
The title and class of equity security to which this statement on Schedule 13D relates is the Units of the Partnership.
See Explanatory Note. |
|
|
Item 2. |
Identity and Background |
(a) This Amendment No. 2 is being filed by each of the following persons (the Reporting Persons):
(i) Brookfield, a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario;
(ii) Investments, a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario that owns approximately 9.0% of Brookfields Class A Limited Voting Shares; and
(iii) Partners, a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario that owns all of Brookfields Class B Limited Voting Shares and approximately 50% of Investments common shares.
Schedules I, II and III hereto set forth a list of all the directors and executive officers (the Scheduled Persons), and their respective principal occupations and addresses, of each of Brookfield, Investments and Partners, respectively.
(b) The principal business address of Brookfield, Investments and Partners is Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3.
(c) The principal business of Brookfield is to invest and operate businesses in the real estate, power generation and infrastructure sectors. The principal business of each of Investments and Partners is that of an investment holding company.
(d)-(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons and, to the Reporting Persons knowledge, none of the Scheduled Persons, has been: (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors); or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which, he, she or it was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
|
(f) Set forth on Schedules I, II and III hereto are the citizenships of each of the directors and executive officers of each of Brookfield, Investments and Partners, respectively. | |
Item 3. |
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
On December 8, 2010, the Partnership completed its acquisition of the ownership interests in Prime Infrastructure (Prime) not already held by it, resulting in the Partnerships ownership of Prime increasing from 40% to 100% (the Merger). Pursuant to the Merger, the Partnership issued approximately 50.7 million Units to former security holders of Prime, including approximately 0.9 million redeemable partnership units, as more fully described in the Partnerships Form 20-F dated April 26, 2011, to BILP Holding L.P. (BILP Holding), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield. | |
|
|
Item 5. |
Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
(a)-(b) As of the date hereof, Investments may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 2,218,649 Units, and such Units constitute approximately 1.4% of the issued and outstanding Units based on the number of Units outstanding as of January 31, 2011. Assuming that all of the redeemable partnership units of Brookfield Infrastructure L.P. (BILP) were exchanged for Units pursuant to the redemption-exchange mechanism, as of the date hereof, Brookfield may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 43,445,572 Units and Partners may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 45,684,516 Units, and such Units would constitute approximately 27.8% and 29.2%, respectively, of the issued and outstanding Units based on the number of Units outstanding as of January 31, 2011. The Units deemed to be beneficially owned by Brookfield include 43,396,642 redeemable partnership units owned by BILP Holding and 48,930 owned by wholly-owned subsidiaries of Brookfield, as set forth in footnote 1 above. The Units deemed to be beneficially owned by Partners include 20,295 Units owned by Partners and the Units deemed to be beneficially owned by each of Brookfield and Investments. Investments may be deemed to have the sole power to vote or direct the vote of the Units beneficially owned by it or to dispose of such Units. Brookfield may hold the Units directly or in one or more wholly-owned subsidiaries. Partners may be deemed to have shared power (with each of Brookfield and Investments) to vote or direct the vote of the Units beneficially owned by it or to dispose of such Units other than 20,295 Units with respect to which it has sole voting and investment power. Brookfield holds, through BILP Holding, an aggregate of 43,396,642 redeemable partnership units of BILP. Such redeemable partnership units held indirectly by Brookfield represent 100% of the redeemable partnership units of BILP and approximately 27.8% of the Units.
(c) Not applicable.
(d) No person is known to any of the Reporting Persons or, to the Reporting Persons knowledge, the Scheduled Persons, to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, any such Units.
(e) Not applicable. | |
