Exchange Offer
Firm Offer and Exchange Offer Issue
Amount:
Th
e sum of the Firm Offer Issue Amount and the Exchange Offer Issue Amount has been set at
$127,248,000 of Infrastructure Bonds.
Rate Set Date:1 September 2023.
Issue Date: 15 September 2023.
Expected Date of Initial Quotation on the
NZX Debt Market:
18 September 2023.
Maturity Date:15 March 2031.
Interest Rate:
7.08% per annum.
The Interest Rate has been set as the greater of:
(a) the sum of the Issue Margin and the Base Rate determined on the Rate Set Date; and
(b) the Minimum Interest Rate.
The Issue Margin was set by Infratil in consultation with the Joint Lead Managers (identified
below) at
2.40% per annum. The Base Rate on the Rate Set Date was 4.68% per annum.
Accordingly, the sum of the Issue Margin and the Base Rate on the Rate Set Date (being
7.08
% per annum) applies to the Infrastructure Bonds as the Interest Rate.
Minimum Interest Rate:
7.05% per annum.
Issue Margin:
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 below) 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:15 March, 15 June, 15 September and 15 December of each year until and including the
Maturity Date (commencing on 15 September 2023). Although the first Interest Payment
Date is 15 September 2023, because that is the same date as the Issue Date, no interest
will have accrued and no interest will be payable on that date. The first date on which interest
will be paid on the Infrastructure Bonds is 15 December 2023.
Interest Payments:Other than for the first Interest Payment Date (on which no interest will be paid), Infratil will
pay interest in arrear in equal amounts on each Interest Payment Date.
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.
2.40% per annum.

First Interest Payment:As noted above, although the first Interest Payment Date is 15 September 2023, because
that is the same date as the Issue Date, no interest will have accrued and no interest will be
payable on that date. The first date on which interest will be paid on the Infrastructure Bonds is
15 December 2023. Interest paid on 15 December 2023 on each Infrastructure Bond will
be paid to the Holder of the Infrastructure Bond on the Record Date for that payment (being 5

Stopper:
Infratil may suspend the payment of interest where an Interest Suspension Event exists. If the

Interest Suspension Event ceases to exist; and
(b)
Infratil will not p
ay 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 int
erest payment would be likely to breach the solvency test in section 4 of the
Companies Act 1993;
(b)
the int
erest 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 int
erest 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

Key Terms of the
Infrastructure Bonds
7
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.
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 a prior claim to the assets of those companies ranking ahead of the claim
of Infratil's liquidator (claiming as shareholder in the companies). Only the residual assets of
the companies, after the claims of the companies' creditors have been satisfied, would be
available to Infratil's liquidator and therefore Infratil's creditors (including Holders).
No Guarantee:The Infrastructure Bonds are not guaranteed by any member of the Infratil group or any other
person.
Issue Price:$1.00 per Infrastructure Bond (being the Face Value).
No subscription moneys are payable by a Holder for Infrastructure Bonds allotted under the
Exchange Offer.
Minimum Application Amount:Infrastructure Bonds having a Face Value of $5,000 and multiples having a Face Value of $1,000
thereafter (unless a holder of 2023 Bonds is exchanging all of their 2023 Bonds).
ISIN:NZIFTD0340L6
Business Day:A day on which NZX is open for trading. If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls
on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for the payment to be made on that date will
be on the immediately preceding Business Day, but the amount paid will not be adjusted.
