Infrastructure - Outlook<br />
• On 2 June 2006 BNB was selected as preferred tenderer to acquire the South Australian<br />
power generator NRG Flinders with a total capacity of 760MW. This transaction is expected<br />
to close by the end of the month. BNB has announced its intention to consolidate its equity<br />
holdings in its current non wind power generation assets to establish a <strong>Babcock</strong> & <strong>Brown</strong><br />
branded power generation business.<br />
• BNB has reached financial close on 29 PPP or similar projects in the UK, in which we retain<br />
a management interest with a gross value of approximately £860 million. We expect to<br />
establish a fund based in Europe to hold both our UK and Australian projects over which we<br />
retain management rights and a financial interest.<br />
• The Enersis energy portfolio performed ahead of expectations for 1H 2006. Work is continuing<br />
to restructure and develop the portfolio readying it for future sale, in particular the wind and<br />
hydro assets.<br />
• To allow BNB to take advantage of the many opportunities in the US and European<br />
infrastructure sectors the division may seek to raise additional pools of capital through the<br />
creation of wholesale or listed funds in those regions.<br />
