Expected Date of Initial Quotation
on the NZX Debt Market:
18 June 2024
Maturity Date:17 December 2031
Interest Rate: 7.06% per annum
The Interest Rate has been set as the greater of:

(b) the Minimum Interest Rate.
The Issue Margin was set by Infratil in consultation with the Arranger (identified on page 11) at
2.40% per annum. The Base Rate on the Rate Set Date was 4.66% per annum. Accordingly, the
sum of the Issue Margin and the Base Rate on the Rate Set Date (being 7.06% per annum) applies
to the Infrastructure Bonds as the Interest Rate.
Minimum Interest Rate:6.75% per annum
Issue Margin: 2.40% per annum
Base Rate:The mid-market rate for a New Zealand dollar interest rate swap of a term matching the period
from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date as determined by Infratil in consultation with the
Arranger (identified on page 4) on the Rate Set Date in accordance with market convention
with reference to Bloomberg page ICNZ4 (or any successor page), in each case expressed on a
quarterly basis (and rounded to 2 decimal places, if necessary, with 0.005 being rounded up).
Interest Payment Dates:17 March, 17 June, 17 September and 17 December of each year until and including the Maturity
Date (commencing on 17 June 2024).
Interest Payments:Other than for the first Interest Payment Date, Infratil will pay interest in arrear in equal amounts
on each Interest Payment Date and will be paid to the Holder of the Infrastructure Bond on the
Record Date for each Interest Payment Date.
Interest payable on each Infrastructure Bond on the first Interest Payment Date will accrue at the
Interest Rate from (and including) the date on which your subscription moneys have been banked
into the trust account operated in respect of the Offer to (but excluding) the first Interest Payment
Date. The first Interest Payment Date is 17 June 2024 which is the same date as the Issue Date.
For Infrastructure Bonds allotted under the Firm Offer, no interest will have accrued on the first
Interest Payment Date and no interest will be payable on that date.
For Infrastructure Bonds allotted under the Exchange Offer, the redemption proceeds of the
2024 Bonds will be banked into the trust account operated in respect of the Offer on 14 June
2024 (the business day immediately preceding 15 June 2024) and interest on those Infrastructure
Bonds will accrue at the Interest Rate from that date and be payable on the first Interest Payment
Date (17 June 2024). The interest payment will be paid to the original subscriber for the relevant
Infrastructure Bonds.
In addition, if the Infrastructure Bonds are redeemed on a day that is not an Interest Payment
Date (see "Right to Redeem Early" and "Early Redemption Events" on page 6), the amount of
interest that will be payable to you will be adjusted to reflect the number of days in the interest
period in which the interest accrued.

Key Terms of the
Infrastructure Bonds
Interest Suspension and
Dividend Stopper:
Infratil may suspend the payment of interest where an Interest Suspension Event exists. If the
payment of interest is suspended:
(a) interest will continue to accrue (without compounding) and will be paid by Infratil when the
Interest Suspension Event ceases to exist; and
(b) Infratil will not pay or make any distribution to shareholders or provide any financial assistance
for the acquisition of shares in Infratil.
Interest Suspension Events:In summary, an Interest Suspension Event may occur if:
(a) the interest payment would be likely to breach the solvency test in section 4 of the Companies
Act 1993;
(b) the interest payment would be likely to result in a breach of the terms or conditions of other
financial indebtedness incurred by Infratil or certain of its subsidiaries; or
(c) the interest payment would be likely to result in a breach of any other legal obligation by
Infratil or certain of its subsidiaries.
Right to Redeem Early:Infratil has the right to redeem all or some of the Infrastructure Bonds prior to the Maturity Date
by giving you no less than 5 Business Days' notice. Infratil may not exercise this right if:
(a)
the Super
visor has declared the Infrastructure Bonds due and payable because an event of
default as described in clause 8.1 of the Trust Deed exists; or
(b)
the notice o
f early redemption is given at a time on or after the day falling 25 Business Days
before the Maturity Date.
You have no right of early redemption except following an Early Redemption Event.
Redemption Price:Redemption on the Maturity Date or following an Early Redemption Event
Each Infrastructure Bond redeemed on the Maturity Date, or earlier following an Early
Redemption Event, will be redeemed at an amount equal to its Face Value less all withholding tax
or deductions required to be made.
Early Redemption
If an Infrastructure Bond is redeemed early due to Infratil exercising its right to redeem early,
it will be redeemed at an amount equal to the greater of:
(a)
its F
ace Value plus accrued but unpaid interest; and
(b)
the curr
ent market price of the Infrastructure Bonds (determined in accordance with clause
6.1(l)(ii) of the Trust Deed),
in each case less all withholdings or deductions required to be made.
Early Redemption Events:In summary, an Early Redemption Event may occur if:
(a)
an ev
ent of default as described in clause 8.1 of the Trust Deed occurs; or
(b)
cer
tain takeover offers are made in respect of the shares in Infratil.

occurrence of certain insolvency related events in relation to Infratil.
Liabilities to Assets Covenant:Infratil has agreed for the benefit of Holders that, on the last day of each financial year and
financial half-year of Infratil (and in certain other circumstances), Borrowed Money Indebtedness
of the Issuer Group (being Infratil and certain of its 100% owned subsidiaries) will not exceed 50%
of Tangible Assets of Infratil and its subsidiaries as at that date.

Key Terms of the
Infrastructure Bonds
Ranking of Infrastructure Bonds:The Infrastructure Bonds are unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of Infratil. This
means that in a liquidation of Infratil your rights and claims as a Holder:
(a) will rank after the claims of (i) secured creditors of Infratil (if any), and (ii) creditors of Infratil
who are preferred by law (e.g. the Inland Revenue Department in respect of unpaid tax);
(b) will rank equally with the claims of all other unsecured, unsubordinated creditors of Infratil; and
(c) will rank in priority to the claims of (i) subordinated creditors of Infratil (if any) (being creditors
who have agreed to accept a lower priority in respect of their claims in a liquidation of Infratil),
and (ii) shareholders.
Infratil is a holding company with investments in various companies. Holders have no claims
against, or recourse to the assets of, any of those companies. Infratil's ability to make timely
payments on the Infrastructure Bonds is dependent on the returns it receives from its investments,
its capital structure and the quality of its management.
In a liquidation of the Infratil group, creditors of Infratil's subsidiaries and associates (including
lenders) would have to be paid out in full before the distribution of any residual assets to Infratil's
liquidator (claiming as shareholder in the companies). Only these residual assets would be
available to Infratil's liquidator and therefore Infratil's creditors (including Holders).
As an example of this, the diagram below illustrates the position of Holders relative to the banks
which provide loan facilities to Infratil's Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries.
As illustrated in the diagram above, Infratil has a range of Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries which hold
Infratil's investments in its Portfolio Companies. The bank lenders who provide loan facilities to
the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries have direct claims on both Infratil and those Wholly-Owned
Subsidiaries. Holders have a claim on Infratil, but have no claims against, or recourse to, the assets
of the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries or the Portfolio Companies. This means that in a liquidation of
the Infratil group:
•
all cr
editors of each Portfolio Company (including any lenders) would have to be paid in full
before any residual assets could be distributed to the relevant Wholly-Owned Subsidiary;
•
all cr
editors of each Wholly-Owned Subsidiary (including the bank lenders) would have to be
paid in full before any residual assets could be distributed to Infratil; and
•
ther
efore, only the residual assets of the Portfolio Companies and Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries,
after the claims of all of their creditors have been satisfied in full, would be available to Infratil's
liquidator and therefore Infratil's creditors (including Holders).
Infratil is also subject to other restrictions in its bank loan facilities that limit the value of cash and
other assets it may hold (other than shares and other securities held in, or loans to, the Wholly-
Owned Subsidiaries).
