LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholders,

We are pleased to provide our Annual Report for Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund Inc. (“the Fund” or “BII”) for the period from November 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 (“the Period”).

BII launched on November 1, 2023, as a regulated investment company, structured as a “tender offer fund.” At the time of launch, a predecessor fund based in Luxembourg, Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund SCSp (the “Predecessor Fund”), was reorganized into the Fund and as a result, the Fund adopted all of the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, including its portfolio of private infrastructure investments.

Although a relatively new fund, BII ended the year with a portfolio of 21 assets which we believe offers investors a diversified portfolio of investments that is designed to perform well through all parts of a market cycle. The Fund has, and will continue to, focus on investments with the following characteristics:

1. Provides an Essential Service: Our investments are critical for the functioning of the economy and society and may increase in value during both periods of economic expansion and contraction.

2. Contracted or Regulated Revenues: The majority of our assets have long-term contracted or regulated revenue agreements with investment-grade corporations or governments. Further, many of the assets are not exposed to volumes as the revenue agreements are “take-or-pay” or “availability-based,” meaning our customers pay a fixed payment to Brookfield as long as the asset is open and operational, regardless of whether customers actually use the assets.

3. Cash Flows Linked to Inflation: Our in-place contracts and regulatory agreements often include CPI-based price adjustments or expense pass-through mechanisms. As a result, our assets can maintain, and potentially increase, revenues and margins during times of high inflation.

In addition to performance information and an additional discussion on factors impacting the Fund, this report provides the Fund’s audited financial statements and schedule of investments as of December 31, 2023.

We welcome your questions and comments and encourage you to contact our Investor Relations team at (855) 777-8001 or visit us at www.brookfieldoaktree.com for more information. Thank you for your support.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

The Fund began operations on November 1, 2023, with a diversified portfolio of 19 private infrastructure equity and debt investments, spanning across sectors and geographies. Post launch, the Fund made three additional investments during the two-month period ended December 31, 2023. Two of these investments were in the renewable power & transition sector, and one was a follow-on investment in the Fund’s Australian utility business.

The Fund’s Class I shares returned 1.48% (net, not annualized) from inception through the period ended December 31, 2023. The Fund’s positive return was supported by the continued success of certain value-add initiatives within the portfolio’s investments, as well as the addition of several investments that were immediately additive to the Fund’s NAV.

OUTLOOK

The capital required to modernize the world’s infrastructure is immense, and we are particularly excited about the opportunities around deglobalization, decarbonization and digitalization. Higher interest rates and tightening bank lending standards have led to a scarcity of capital and sidelined many major investors without available capital. However, this has created conditions for well-capitalized investors, like Brookfield and BII, to acquire infrastructure assets at attractive valuations. Further, BII is also well-positioned to provide debt capital to other infrastructure companies, and we expect the Fund’s allocation to private infrastructure debt to increase in 2024.

Disclosure

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

All returns are shown in United States Dollars (“USD”).

The FTSE Global Core Infrastructure 50/50 Index gives participants an industry-defined interpretation of infrastructure and adjusts the exposure to certain infrastructure sub-sectors. The constituent weights are adjusted as part of the semi-annual review according to three broad industry sectors—50% Utilities, 30% Transportation including capping of 7.5% for railroads/railways and a 20% mix of other sectors including pipelines, satellites and telecommunication towers. Company weights within each group are adjusted in proportion to their investable market capitalization.

An index does not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. It is not possible to invest directly into an index. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only and does not predict or depict the performance of the Fund.

The Fund’s portfolio holdings are subject to change without notice. The mention of specific securities is not a recommendation or solicitation for any person to buy, sell or hold any particular security. There is no assurance that the Fund currently holds these securities. Please refer to the Schedule of Investments contained in this report for a full listing of the Fund’s holdings.

Investing in the Fund involves a high degree of risk, including possible loss of principal invested. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The Fund will subject Fund stockholders to greater risks associated with private market investments with potential limited liquidity. An investment in the Fund should be viewed as a long-term investment within a multi-asset personal portfolio and should not be viewed individually as a complete investment program.

Private infrastructure investments are subject to the risks incidental to the ownership and operation of infrastructure projects, including risks associated with the general economic climate, geographic or market concentration, government regulations and fluctuations in interest rates. Since investments in infrastructure securities, like many other types of long-term investments, have historically experienced significant fluctuations and cycles in value, specific market conditions may result in occasional or permanent reductions in the value of the these investments. Such specific market conditions could include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) demand for commodities, such as natural gas or minerals; (ii) impact of alternative technologies on our business and cyber security attacks; (iii) ability to successfully identify, complete and integrate acquisitions; (iv) competition with other market participants; (v) construction or expansion or projects, environmental damage and future capital expenditures; (vi) economic regulation and adverse regulatory decisions in the countries we operate, including nationalization or the imposition of new taxes; (vii) supply chain disruptions; and (viii) adverse claims or governmental rights or governmental rights asserted against the lands used for our infrastructure assets.

The Fund currently intends to use leverage from time to time to facilitate short-term working capital requirements and to seek to achieve its investment objectives. Leverage creates risks that may adversely affect the return for the stockholders.

Performance data quoted represents past performance results and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.

1. ORGANIZATION & INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) is a newly organized Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act” or the “Investment Company Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company with no operating history. The Fund continuously offers its shares of common stock, as well as periodic liquidity to investors. The Fund's Class I Shares and Class S Shares commenced operations on November 1, 2023 and December 1, 2023, respectively.

The Fund currently offers shares of four classes of common stock on a continuous basis: Class I Common Shares (“Class I Shares”), Class D Common Shares (“Class D Shares”), Class S Common Shares (“Class S Shares”), and Class T Common Shares (“Class T Shares” and, together with the Class I Shares, the Class D Shares, and the Class S Shares, the “Shares”). The Fund was granted exemptive relief (the “Multi-Class Exemptive Relief”) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that permits the Fund to issue multiple classes of shares and to impose asset-based distribution fees and early-withdrawal fees. In addition to the Class I Shares, Class D Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares, the Fund may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Brookfield Asset Management Private Institutional Capital Adviser (Canada), L.P. (the “Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser to the Fund pursuant to the terms of an investment advisory agreement with the Fund (the “Advisory Agreement”). The Adviser is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management ULC (“BAM ULC”). Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC (the “Administrator”), an indirect-wholly-owned subsidiary of BAM ULC, is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and serves as Administrator to the Fund. Brookfield Corporation, a publicly traded company (NYSE: BN; TSX: BN), holds a 75% interest in BAM ULC, while Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (NYSE: BAM; TSX: BAMA) (“Brookfield Asset Management”) holds a 25% interest in BAM ULC. Brookfield Asset Management is a leading global alternative asset manager.

The Fund’s investment objective is to maximize total returns through growth of capital and current income. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

BII launched on November 1, 2023, as a regulated investment company, structured as a "tender offer fund." At the time of launch, a predecessor fund based in Luxembourg, Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund SCSp (the "Predecessor Fund"), was reorganized into the Fund (the "Reorganization") and as a result, the Fund adopted all of the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, including its portfolio of private infrastructure investments. The Fund maintains an investment objective and investment strategies, policies, guidelines and restrictions that are, in all material respects, equivalent to those of the Predecessor Fund. Further, the Reorganization did not result in (1) a material change in the Predecessor Fund’s investment portfolio due to investment restrictions; or (2) a change in accounting policies. Additionally, the investment advisers and portfolio managers did not change as a result of the Reorganization. The net asset value of the Fund’s shares as of close of business on October 31, 2023, after the Reorganization, was $10.00 for Class I Shares and the Fund received in-kind capital contributions of net assets valued at $1,548,637,987 in exchange for 154,863,799 Class I Shares.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund is an investment company within the scope of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08 and follows accounting and reporting guidance under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services-Investment Companies.

Cash

Cash represents funds held in bank accounts with reputable international financial institutions. To the extent that such deposits exceed federally insured limits, the excess over such limits will be uninsured.

Valuation of investments

The Board has designated the Adviser as the valuation designee pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act to perform fair value determination relating to any or all fund investments. The Board oversees the Adviser in its role as the valuation designee in accordance with the requirements of Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act

The Fund values its Private Investments on at least a monthly basis. The Fund carries its private investments at their estimated fair value as determined by the Adviser. A number of valuation methodologies are considered in arriving at fair value of unquoted investments, including internal or external valuation models, which may include discounted cash flow analysis. The most appropriate methodology to determine fair value is chosen on an investment by investment basis. Any control, size, liquidity or other discounts or premiums on the investment are considered by the Adviser in their determination of fair value. During the initial period after an investment has been made, cost may represent the most reasonable estimate of fair value. Intra-quarter month-end values will reflect the latest quarterly valuation, as adjusted based on the total return that the investment is expected to generate, the impact of foreign exchange rates, and any adjustments the Adviser deems appropriate.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Investments in equity securities listed or traded on any securities exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last trade price as of the close of business on the valuation date. If the relevant exchange closes early, then the equity security will be valued at the last traded price before the relevant exchange close. Prices of foreign equities that are principally traded on certain foreign markets will generally be adjusted daily pursuant to a fair value pricing service approved by the Board in order to reflect an adjustment for the factors occurring after the close of certain foreign markets but before the NYSE close. When fair value pricing is employed, the value of the portfolio securities used to calculate the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) may differ from quoted or official closing prices. Investments in open-end registered investment companies, if any, are valued at the NAV as reported by those investment companies.

Debt securities, including U S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, other fixed income and asset-backed securities, and unlisted securities and private placement securities, are generally valued at the bid prices furnished by an independent pricing service or, if not valued by an independent pricing service, using bid prices obtained from active and reliable market makers in any such security or a broker-dealer. Valuations from broker-dealers or pricing services consider appropriate factors such as market activity, market activity of comparable securities, yield, estimated default rates, timing of payments, underlying collateral, coupon rate, maturity date, and other factors. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost of discount or premium to maturity, unless such valuation, in the judgment of the Adviser's Valuation Committee, does not represent fair value.

Over-the-counter financial derivative instruments, such as forward currency contracts, options contracts, or swap agreements, derive their values from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates, other inputs or a combination of these factors. These instruments are normally valued on the basis of evaluations provided by independent pricing services or broker dealer quotations. Depending on the instrument and the terms of the transaction, the value of the derivative instruments can be estimated by a pricing service provider using a series of techniques, such as simulation pricing models. The pricing models use issuer details and other inputs that are observed from actively quoted markets such as indices, spreads, interest rates, curves, dividends and exchange rates. Derivatives that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are normally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of financial instruments that are traded in active markets at each reporting date is determined by reference to quoted market prices or dealer price quotation, without any deduction for transaction costs. For financial instruments not traded in an active market, the fair value is determined using appropriate valuation techniques. Such techniques may include using recent arm’s length market transactions, reference to the current fair value or another instrument that is substantially the same, a discounted cash flow analysis, or other valuation models.

Securities for which market prices are not readily available, cannot be determined using the sources described above, or the Adviser’s Valuation Committee determines that the quotation or price for a portfolio security provided by a broker-dealer or an independent pricing service is inaccurate will be valued at a fair value determined by the Adviser’s Valuation Committee following the procedures adopted by the Adviser under the supervision of the Board.

The Adviser’s valuation policy establishes parameters for the sources, methodologies, and inputs the Adviser’s Valuation Committee uses in determining fair value. Non-publicly traded debt and equity securities and other securities or instruments for which reliable market quotations are not available are valued by the Adviser using valuation methodologies applied on a consistent basis. These securities may initially be valued at the acquisition price as the best indicator of fair value. The Adviser reviews the significant unobservable inputs, valuations of comparable investments and other similar transactions for investments valued at acquisition price to determine whether another valuation methodology should be utilized. Subsequent valuations will depend on facts and circumstances known as of the valuation date and the application of valuation methodologies further described below. The fair value may also be based on a pending transaction expected to close after the valuation date. These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of management judgment. Accordingly, valuations do not necessarily represent the amounts which may eventually be realized from sales or other dispositions of investments in the future. Fair values may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investment existed, and the differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

2023 Annual Report 19

BROOKFIELD INFRASTRUCTURE INCOME FUND INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

December 31, 2023

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The fair valuation methodology may include or consider the following guidelines, as appropriate: (1) evaluation of all relevant factors, including but not limited to, pricing history, current market level, supply and demand of the respective security; (2) comparison to the values and current pricing of securities that have comparable characteristics; (3) knowledge of historical market information with respect to the security; (4) other factors relevant to the security which would include, but not be limited to, duration, yield, fundamental analytical data, the Treasury yield curve, and credit quality. The fair value may be difficult to determine and thus judgment plays a greater role in the valuation process. Imprecision in estimating fair value can also impact the amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded for a particular portfolio security and differences in the assumptions used could result in a different determination of fair value, and those differences could be material. For those securities valued by fair valuations, the Adviser’s Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available. There can be no assurance that the Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio security at the price used to calculate the Fund’s NAV.

Foreign Currency Transactions

Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate the portion of gains or losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on securities from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of securities, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Public portfolio company investments are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Discounts and premiums on securities are accreted and amortized on a daily basis using the effective yield to maturity and yield to next methods, respectively, and might be adjusted based on management’s assessment of the collectability of such interest. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income from distributions is limited to the amount of earnings and profits, generated by each portfolio company. Distributions from these portfolio companies in excess of earnings and profits are recorded as a return of capital. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis, if applicable.

Expenses

Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged directly to the Fund, while expenses that are attributable to the Fund and other investment companies advised by the Adviser or its affiliates are allocated among the respective investment companies, including the Fund, based either upon relative average net assets, evenly, or a combination of average net assets and evenly.

Income Taxes

The Fund is a regulated investment company that benefits from flow-through tax treatment as it expects to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. However, income taxes are recognized for the amount of taxes payable by the Fund’s corporate subsidiaries and for the impact of deferred tax assets and liabilities related to such subsidiaries.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Current income taxes: Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be paid to tax authorities, net of recoveries based on the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred income taxes: Deferred income tax liabilities are provided for using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases used in the computation of taxable income and carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that deductions, tax credits and tax losses can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that the income tax asset will be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred income tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Fund expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority within a single taxable entity or the Fund intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis in the case where there exist different taxable entities in the same taxation authority and when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities.

Organizational Expenses and Offering Costs

Organizational costs are expensed as incurred and consist of costs to establish the Fund and enable it legally to do business. Offering costs from the initial launch of the Fund were deferred and will be amortized over the first twelve months after the commencement of operations in accordance with FASB ASC 946-20-25-5 and ASC 946-20-35-5, respectively. Offering costs consist primarily of registration fees and legal fees for the preparation of the Fund’s initial Registration Statement on Form N-2. Organizational costs were reimbursed by the Adviser, subject to potential recoupment as described in Note 7.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2022, FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this update clarify the guidance in Topic 820 when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions and introduce new disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the Funds’ financial statements.

In December 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update, ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)—Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 (“ASU 2022-06”). ASU 2022-06 is an amendment to ASU 2020-04, which provided optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden due to the discontinuation of the LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates and which was effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. ASU 2022-06 extends the effective period through December 31, 2024. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2022-06.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Fund may purchase and sell derivative instruments such as swaps, including credit default and total return swaps, and other over-the-counter derivative instruments or participations. The Fund may invest in, or enter into, derivatives for a variety of reasons, including to hedge certain market risks, to provide a substitute for purchasing or selling particular securities or to increase potential income gain.

Forward Currency Contracts: A forward currency contract (“forward contract”) is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a currency at an agreed upon price for settlement at a future date. During the period the forward contract is in existence, changes in the value of the forward contract will fluctuate with changes in the currency exchange rates. The forward contract is marked to market daily and these changes are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Gain or loss on the purchase or sale of a forward contract is realized on the settlement date.

The Fund invests in forward contracts to hedge against fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies caused by changes in the prevailing currency exchange rates. The use of forward contracts involves the risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of their contracts and may be negatively impacted from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

The average U.S. dollar value of forward currency contracts to be delivered or received during the period ended December 31, 2023 was $841,586,201.

Interest Rate Swaps: An interest rate swap is an agreement between the Fund and a counterparty to exchange cash flows based on the difference between two interest rates, applied to a notional amount. These agreements may be privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market (OTC interest rate swaps) or may be executed on a registered exchange (centrally cleared interest rate swaps). Over the term of the contract, contractually required payments to be paid and to be received are accrued daily and recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the payments are made, at which time they are realized.

The Fund invests in interest rate swap contracts primarily to manage interest rate risk.

For the period ended December 31, 2023, the average month end notional amount of swap contracts was $44,857,124.

The following table sets forth the fair value of the Fund’s derivative instruments:

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

A three-tier hierarchy has been established to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices in markets that are not active or other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices based on recently executed transactions, interest rates, credit risk, etc.)

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities)

The following table summarizes the Fund’s investments valuation inputs categorized in the disclosure hierarchy as of December 31, 2023:

	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
	LEVEL 1		LEVEL 2		LEVEL 3		TOTAL
Investments accounted for at fair value:
Private investments	$	—	$	—	$	1,728,989,209	$	1,728,989,209

Total Investments at Fair Value	$	48,715,465	$	299,660,404	$	1,728,989,209	$	2,077,365,078
Other Financial Instruments (Assets)
Foreign currency forward contracts	$	—	$	269,689	$	—	$	269,689
Interest rate swaps		—		628,647		—		628,647

Total Other Financial Instruments (Liabilities)	$	—	$	59,030,874	$	—	$	59,030,874

The fair value of the Fund’s loan payable, credit facility and reverse repurchase agreements, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 825, Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments, approximates the carrying amounts of $174,000,000, $97,902,000 and $84,537,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, these financial instruments are categorized as Level 2 within the disclosure hierarchy.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

The table below shows the significant unobservable valuation inputs that were used by the Adviser to fair value the Level 3 investments as of December 31, 2023.

		Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
							Impact to
							Valuation
							from an
	Value as of		Valuation		Unobservable	Amount or	Increase
	December 31, 2023		Approach	Valuation Technique	Input	Range	in Input(1)
Private equity Investments	$	1,521,538,907	Income Approach	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate	6.5% to 17.9% (11.5%)	Decrease
					Terminal Value	4.2x to 23.5x	Increase
					Multiple	(11.9x)
Private debt Investments	$	207,450,302	Income Approach	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate	8% to 12% (9.5%)	Decrease

1 The impact represents the expected directional change in the fair value of Level 3 investments that would result from an increase in the corresponding input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

The following is a reconciliation of the assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

	Private Equity			Private Debt		Total
Balance as of November 1, 2023 (commencement of Operations)	$	—		$	—	$	—

4. CAPITAL SHARES

The Fund currently offers its Shares on a continuous basis and was granted Multi-Class Exemptive Relief by the SEC that permits the Fund to issue multiple classes of shares and to impose asset-based distribution fees and early-withdrawal fees. In addition to the Class I Shares, Class D Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares, the Fund may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

The Shares are continuously offered each month at an offering price equal to NAV per share (plus an applicable front-end sales load, where relevant), which is calculated: (i) as of the close of business on the last business day of each month; (ii) on each date that Shares are to be repurchased in connection with the Fund's offer to purchase Shares; and (iii) at such other times as the Board shall determine. The differences among the Shares relate to front-end sales loads and ongoing distribution and shareholder servicing fees. No front-end sales load or distribution and shareholder servicing fees are paid with respect to Class I Shares. The Class D Shares and the Class S Shares are each subject to a front-end sales load of up to 2.00% and 3.50%, respectively. Investors purchasing Class T Shares may be charged a sales load of up to 3.00% and a maximum dealer fee of 0.50% of the investment amount, for a total front-end sales load of up to 3.50%. Holders of the Shares have equal rights and privileges with each other, except with respect to front-end sales loads and certain ongoing distribution and shareholder servicing fees.

2 For the Period December 1, 2023 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2023.

5. REPURCHASES

The Fund intends, but is not obligated, to conduct quarterly tender offers of its outstanding Shares at the applicable NAV per share as of the applicable valuation date. Repurchases will be made at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion. However, no assurance can be given that repurchases will occur or that any Shares properly tendered will be repurchased by the Fund. Any repurchase of Shares from a stockholder that were held for less than one year (on a first-in, first-out basis) will be subject to an “Early Repurchase Fee” equal to 2% of the NAV (measured as of the repurchase date) of any Shares repurchased by the Fund. If an Early Repurchase Fee is charged to a stockholder, the amount of such fee will be retained by the Fund. Following the commencement of an offer to repurchase Shares, the Fund may suspend, postpone or terminate such offer in certain circumstances upon the determination of a majority of the Board, including a majority of the independent directors, that such suspension, postponement or termination is advisable for the Fund and its stockholders, including, without limitation, circumstances as a result of which it is not reasonably practicable for the Fund to dispose of its investments or to determine its net asset value, and other unusual circumstances. In the event of termination, however, the Fund may terminate an offer only upon the occurrence of conditions as specified at the outset of the offer that are objectively verifiable and outside of the control of the Fund or its agents or affiliates. Stockholders may withdraw their written tenders after the expiration of 40 business days from the commencement of the offer if the Board provides consent and the tender has not yet been accepted by the Fund for payment. Once the tender has been accepted for payment, the Fund will repurchase the Shares and remit the repurchase price to stockholders, less any applicable Early Repurchase Fee, within 5 business days after the applicable expiration date in all instances.

6. DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income to common stockholders in the form of distributions. Under normal market conditions, the Fund intends to declare and pay distributions monthly to common stockholders of record. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute any net capital gains earned from the sale of portfolio securities to common stockholders no less frequently than annually, although net short-term capital gains may be paid more frequently. However, the Fund cannot guarantee that it will make distributions and the amount of distributions that the Fund may pay, if any, is uncertain.

December 31, 2023

6. DISTRIBUTIONS (continued)

The Fund intends to pay common stockholders annually all, or at least 90%, of its investment company taxable income. Various factors will affect the level of the Fund’s investment company taxable income, such as its asset mix. Distributions may be paid to the holders of the Fund’s Shares if, as and when authorized by the Board of Directors and declared by the Fund out of assets legally available therefor. To permit the Fund to pay monthly distributions, it may from time to time distribute less than the entire amount of income earned in a particular period, with the undistributed amount being available to supplement future distributions. As a result, the distributions paid by the Fund for any particular monthly period may be more or less than the amount of income actually earned during that period. Because the Fund’s income will fluctuate and the Fund’s distribution policy may be changed by the Board of Directors at any time, there can be no assurance that the Fund will pay distributions or dividends. Distributions are subject to re-characterization for federal income tax purposes after the end of the fiscal year.

A notice disclosing the source(s) of a distribution is provided after a payment is made from any source other than net investment income. This notice is available on the Adviser’s website at https://www.brookfieldoaktree.com/fund/brookfield-infrastructure-income-fund-inc. Any such notice is provided only for informational purposes in order to comply with the requirements of Section 19(a) of the 1940 Act and not for tax reporting purposes. The tax composition of the Fund’s distributions for each calendar year is reported on IRS Form 1099-DIV.

7. INVESTMENT ADVISORY & ADMINISTRATIVE AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

The Fund and the Adviser have entered into the Advisory Agreement pursuant to which the Adviser is entitled to receive a base management fee and an incentive fee.

The base management fee (the “Management Fee”) is accrued monthly and payable quarterly in arrears at the annual rate of 1.25% of the value of the Fund’s net assets before any management and incentive fees, which is calculated as of the close of business on the last business day of each month.

The incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) is accrued monthly and payable annually in arrears at an amount equal to 12.5% of the Fund Income for the applicable year. The Fund looks through any total return swap contracts and counts the underlying reference assets as investments for purposes of calculating the Incentive Fee.

“Fund Income” means (1) distributions received by the Fund from the Fund’s private portfolio investments; plus (2) distributions received by the Fund of net investment income (or loss) from debt, preferred equity investments and traded securities; minus (3) the Fund’s expenses (excluding the Incentive Fee and distribution and servicing fees). The distributions received by the Fund from the Fund’s private portfolio investments, including the distributions received by the Fund of net investment income (or loss) from debt, preferred equity investments and traded securities, are treated as cash from operations (or income) received by the Fund without regard to the tax characteristics (e.g., income vs. return of capital) of the distributions received. The annual payment of the Incentive Fee will reflect all such distributions received by the Fund, except returns of invested capital that are not derived from the operations of the issuer based on a review by the Fund’s portfolio management team of the issuer’s financial statements and results from business operations.

Fund Income does not include any component of capital gains or capital appreciation. The Adviser is not entitled to any incentive fee based on the capital gains or capital appreciation of the Fund or its investments.

On December 8, 2023, the Fund established a $300 million loan facility with BII BIG Holdings L.P., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BAM ULC. Each loan advanced under the facility incurs interest at a rate of 8% per annum and is repayable no later than two years following the date of advance. As of December 31, 2023, $174 million was advanced on the facility and $762,740 of interest was incurred. From December 12, 2023 (the initial draw date) to December 31, 2023, the Fund borrowed an average daily balance of $174 million at a weighted average borrowing cost of 8.00%. Subsequent to year-end, $25 million of the outstanding loan was converted to equity and the residual balance was repaid in cash, including accrued interest of $1,324,276.

7. INVESTMENT ADVISORY & ADMINISTRATIVE AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (continued)

On November 1, 2023, the Fund commenced operations and the Adviser waived and/or reimbursed certain expenses related to organizational costs and income taxes in the amount of $11,325,213 and $6,774,268, respectively, of which $450,000 was recouped prior to December 31, 2023. The Fund will reimburse these remaining expenses, subject to a specified expense cap and reimbursement limitations (as detailed below).

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement”), through November 30, 2024, the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund so that certain of the Fund’s expenses (“Specified Expenses,” as defined below) will not exceed 0.70% of the Fund’s net assets (annualized). The Fund has agreed to repay these amounts, when and if requested by the Adviser, but only if and to the extent that Specified Expenses are less than 0.70% of net assets (annualized) (or, if a lower expense limit under the Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement is then in effect, such lower limit) within three years after the date the Adviser waived or reimbursed such fees or expenses. This arrangement cannot be terminated prior to November 30, 2024 without the Board’s consent. “Specified Expenses” is defined to include all expenses incurred in the business of the Fund, including, among other things, organizational and offering costs, professional fees, and fees and expenses of the Administrator, Transfer Agent and Custodian, with the exception of (i) the Management Fee, (ii) the Incentive Fee, (iii) distribution and shareholder servicing fees, (iv) portfolio level expenses, (v) brokerage costs or other investment-related out-of-pocket expenses, including costs incurred with respect to unconsummated investments, (vi) dividend/interest payments (including any dividend payments, interest expenses, commitment fees, or other expenses related to any leverage incurred by the Fund), (vii) taxes, and (viii) extraordinary expenses (such as litigation and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business).

The Adviser has entered into an investment sub-advisory agreement with Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC (PSG, or the “Sub-Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company and a registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act. The Sub-Adviser is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BAM ULC. In addition to the Fund, the Sub-Adviser’s clients include financial institutions, public and private pension plans, insurance companies, endowments and foundations, sovereign wealth funds and high net-worth investors. The Sub-Adviser specializes in global listed real assets strategies and its investment philosophy incorporates a value-based approach towards investment. PSG also serves as the Fund’s administrator (the “Administrator”) and accounting agent pursuant to an administration agreement. The Administrator will provide, or oversee the performance of, administrative and compliance services, including, but not limited to, maintaining financial records, overseeing the calculation of NAV, compliance monitoring (including diligence and oversight of our other service providers), preparing reports to stockholders and reports filed with the SEC, preparing materials and coordinating meetings of the Board, managing the payment of expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered by others and providing office space, equipment and office services. For its services under the administration agreement, PSG receives an annual fee from the Fund equal to 0.03% of the Fund's net asset value.

J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (in such capacity, the “Sub-Administrator”) will provide certain administrative and fund accounting services pursuant to a fund services agreement with the Fund (the “Fund Services Agreement”). Pursuant to the Fund Services Agreement, and subject to the supervision of the Administrator, the Sub-Administrator will provide certain administrative services to the Fund that are not otherwise provided by the Administrator, which include, but are not limited to: assisting in securities valuation; performing portfolio accounting services; and assisting in the preparation of financial reports.

The Fund is responsible for any fees due to the Sub-Administrator.

Certain officers and/or directors of the Fund are officers and/or employees of the Administrator or the Adviser.

8. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS

For the period ended December 31, 2023, purchases and sales of investments excluding short-term securities were $390,745,807 and $419,784, respectively during the period ended December 31, 2023. There were no transactions in U.S. Government securities during the period ended December 31, 2023. The Fund acquired investments valued at $1,595,932,382 as a result of the Reorganization which are excluded from the amounts above.

9. BORROWINGS

Credit facility: The Predecessor Fund established a line of credit with Mizuho Bank, Ltd. on April 19, 2023. This facility was transferred to the Fund as part of the Reorganization that occurred on October 31, 2023. The Fund pays interest in the amount of SOFR plus 2.65% on the amount borrowed; 0.30% on the amount unused if the aggregate outstanding amount of the loan is less than 50% of the commitment (0.25% on the amount unused if otherwise). The Fund paid commitment fees of $27,618 during the period.

As of December 31, 2023, the Fund had $97,902,000 of outstanding borrowings on the credit facility. For the period ended December 31, 2023, the Fund borrowed an average daily balance of $87,158,492 at a weighted average borrowing cost of 8.08%. Subsequent to year-end, the Fund repaid the outstanding balance in full, including accrued interest of $705,160.

For the period ended December 31, 2023, the Fund amortized $103,562 in deferred financing costs which is included in interest expense and other financing costs on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2023, the Fund had $818,136 in unamortized deferred financing costs reported on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The remaining portion is being amortized over the life of the agreement which matures on April 18, 2025.

In addition, as of December 31, 2023, $74,041,228 of the credit facility was committed for letters of credit in conjunction with our investments in Canadian Wind Portfolio (Ontario Wind), U.S. Hydro (Smoky Mountain), North American Residential Infrastructure (Enercare) and U.S. Semiconductor Foundry (Intel Partnership).

Reverse Repurchase Agreements: In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund delivers a security to a financial institution, the counterparty, in exchange for cash with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same or substantially the same security at an agreed upon price and date. The Fund is entitled to receive principal and interest payments, if any, made on the security delivered to the counterparty during the term of the agreement. Cash received in exchange for securities delivered plus accrued interest payments to be made by the Fund to counterparties are reflected as a liability on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Interest payments made by the Fund to counterparties are recorded as a component of interest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Fund will segregate assets delivered as collateral under reverse repurchase agreements.

Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of the securities retained in lieu of sale by the Fund may decline below the price of the securities the Fund has sold but is obligated to repurchase. In the event the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, such buyer or its trustee or receiver may receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities, and the Fund’s use of the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement may effectively be restricted pending such decision. Also, the Fund would bear the risk of loss to the extent that the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement are less than the value of the securities subject to such agreements.

The Fund has elected to not offset derivative assets and liabilities or financial assets, including cash, that may be received or paid as part of collateral arrangements, even when an enforceable master netting agreement is in place that provides the Fund, in the event of counterparty default, the right to liquidate collateral and the right to offset a counterparty’s rights and obligations.

1    Excess of collateral pledged to the individual counterparty is not shown for financial statement purposes.

Reverse repurchase transactions are entered into by the Fund under Master Repurchase Agreements (“MRA”) which permit the Fund, under certain circumstances, including an event of default of the Fund (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables under the MRA with collateral held with the counterparty and create one single net payment from the Fund. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund is considered an unsecured creditor with respect to excess collateral and, as such, the return of excess collateral may be delayed. In the event the buyer of securities (i.e. the MRA counterparty) under a MRA files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund’s use of the proceeds of the agreement may be restricted while the other party, or its trustee or receiver, determines whether or not to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities.

10. FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION

The Fund intends to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income and net capital gain, if any, for the taxable year to its shareholders. Therefore, no associated federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund may incur an excise tax to the extent it has not distributed all of its taxable income on a calendar year basis, however, no such tax has been incurred for the period ended December 31, 2023. Income taxes recognized relate to the amount of taxes payable by the Fund’s corporate subsidiaries and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of such subsidiaries.

GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. An evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the taxing authority is required. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be booked as a tax expense in the current year and recognized as: a liability for unrecognized tax benefits; a reduction of an income tax refund receivable; a reduction of a deferred tax asset; an increase in a deferred tax liability; or a combination thereof.

The Fund has reviewed all taxable years that are open for examination (i.e., not barred by the applicable statute of limitations) by taxing authorities of all major jurisdictions, including the Internal Revenue Service. As of December 31, 2023, the open taxable year consisted of the period from November 1, 2023 (commencement of operations), to December 31, 2023. No examination of the Fund’s tax returns is currently in progress.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

The Fund’s income tax provision consists of the following for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023:

	Period Ended
	December 31, 2023
Current tax expense:
Federal	$	—
State		—
Foreign		880,287

Foreign		5,475,763
Total deferred tax expense	$	10,037,847

The tax character of the distributions paid for the periods shown below were as follows:

10. FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION (continued)

At December 31, 2023, the Fund’s most recently completed tax year-end, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$	—
Undistributed long-term capital gains	$	—
Capital loss carryforwards	$	—
Net unrealized appreciation	$	54,981,551
Other timing differences	$	(445,000	)

Federal Income Tax Basis: The federal income tax basis of the Fund’s investments at December 31, 2023 was as follows:

Cost of investments		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation			Net Unrealized Appreciation
$	1,984,350,885	$	96,253,263	$	(41,271,712	)	$	54,981,551

The Fund deferred, on a tax basis, late year ordinary losses of $28,353,791 and post-October capital losses of $21,904. The Fund had no capital loss carryforwards as at December 31, 2023.

Capital Account Reclassifications: Because federal income tax regulations differ in certain respects from GAAP, income and capital gain distributions, if any, determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ in amount, timing, and character from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for Section 988 currency, partnership income/expense and nondeductible expenses. Permanent book and tax differences, if any, will result in reclassifications among the components of the Fund's net assets. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share. Any undistributed net income and realized gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.

At December 31, 2023, the Fund’s most recently completed tax year-end, the Fund’s components of net assets were increased or (decreased) by the amounts shown in the table below:

12. INDEMNIFICATIONS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for indemnification. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, since this would involve the resolution of certain claims, as well as future claims that may be made, against the Fund. Thus, an estimate of the financial impact, if any, of these arrangements cannot be made at this time. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be unlikely.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

GAAP requires recognition in the financial statements of the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Fund is required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made.

Management has evaluated subsequent events in the preparation of the Fund’s financial statements and has determined that there are no additional events that require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

BROOKFIELD INFRASTRUCTURE INCOME FUND INC.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Fund"), including the consolidated schedule of investments as of December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, changes in net assets, and financial highlights for the period from November 1, 2023 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2023, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations, its cash flows, the changes in its net assets, and the financial highlights for the period from November 1, 2023 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2023, by correspondence with the custodian, counterparties, agent banks, and brokers; when replies were not received from agent banks and brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Board Considerations Relating to the Approval of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

(Unaudited)

The Board of Directors (the "Board," the members of which are referred to as "Directors") of Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund Inc. (the "Fund"), including the Directors who are not "interested persons," as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") (the "Independent Directors"), of the Fund, considered and approved the Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") between the Fund and Brookfield Asset Management Private Institutional Capital Adviser (Canada) L.P (the "Adviser" or "BAM PIC"), and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between BAM PIC and Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC (the "Sub-Adviser" or "PSG") with respect to the Fund (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement," and together with the Advisory Agreement, the "Agreements"), each for an initial two-year period at the organizational meeting of the Fund held virtually via WebEx on August 24, 2023 (the "Meeting").¹

In accordance with Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act, the Board requested, and BAM PIC and PSG provided, materials relating to the Board's consideration of whether to approve the Agreements, including a memorandum prepared by PSG (the “PSG Memorandum”) that was provided to the Board in accordance with Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act, and a memorandum prepared by Quasar Distributors, LLC, the Fund’s proposed principal underwriter (the “Distributor”) that summarized the Distributor’s experience and the services it proposed to provide to the Fund, which the Distributor believed would be helpful in evaluating and considering the terms of a distribution agreement between the Fund and the Distributor (the “Distribution Agreement”), and a distribution services agreement between the Fund and the Distributor (the “Distribution Services Agreement,” and, together with the Distribution Agreement, the “Distribution Arrangements”). These materials included information regarding, among other things: (a) a summary of the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the Fund by BAM PIC and PSG; (b) performance data; (c) information independently compiled and prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent third-party provider of mutual fund data, on fees and expenses of the Fund relative to peer funds; (d) BAM PIC’s and PSG’s personnel and operations; (e) any “fall-out” benefits to BAM PIC and/or PSG (i.e., ancillary benefits realized by them from their relationship with the Fund); (f) information relating to economies of scale; (g) information on BAM PIC’s and PSG’s risk management processes; (h) information regarding brokerage practices; and (i) information about the key personnel of BAM PIC and PSG who would be involved in the investment management, administration, compliance and risk management activities with respect to the Fund, as well as current and projected staffing levels and compensation practices; and (j) information regarding the Distributor and the services proposed to be provided to the Fund pursuant to the Distribution Arrangements.

In determining whether to approve the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Directors, considered at the Meeting, and from time to time, as appropriate, factors that it deemed relevant. The following discusses the primary factors relevant to the Board's decision.

THE NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF THE SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY THE ADVISER AND SUB-ADVISER. The Board, including the Independent Directors, considered the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Fund, the Board considered the responsibilities that the Adviser and Sub-Adviser would have to the Fund, including the provision of investment advisory services to the Fund, compliance with the Fund’s investment objective and strategy, review of brokerage matters including with respect to trade allocation and best execution, oversight of general fund compliance with federal and state laws, and the implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Fund. The Board also considered the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s risk assessment and monitoring processes. The Board further considered the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s current level of staffing and their overall resources, including the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s history and investment experience, as well as information regarding their investment personnel who would be providing services to the Fund. The Board also considered the expertise and performance of the personnel who would be overseeing the compliance with the Fund’s investment restrictions and other requirements.

¹ On March 13, 2020, in response to the potential effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") issued an order pursuant to its authority under Sections 6(c) and 38(a) of the 1940 Act, granting exemptions from certain provisions of that Act and the rules thereunder, including temporary exemptive relief from in-person board meeting requirements to cover the approval of advisory contracts or principal underwriter agreements. The SEC has provided temporary exemptive relief for registered management investment companies and any investment adviser or principal underwriter of such companies, in circumstances related to the current or potential effects of COVID-19, from the requirements imposed under sections 15(c) and 32(a) of the 1940 Act and Rules 12b-1(b)⁽²⁾ and 15a-4(b)⁽²⁾(ii) thereunder that votes of the board of directors of the registered management investment company be cast in person. The relief is subject to conditions described in the SEC's order.

BROOKFIELD INFRASTRUCTURE INCOME FUND INC.

Board Considerations Relating to the Approval of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

(Unaudited) (continued)

The Board also considered the reputation and experience of each of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser in serving as an investment adviser to other funds and accounts. The Board also considered their investment processes and philosophies, as well as the Adviser’s responsibilities to the Fund, including the development and maintenance of an investment program for the Fund consistent with the Fund’s investment objective, the selection of investment securities and the placement of orders for the purchase and sale of such securities, and the implementation of compliance controls related to performance of these services.

In addition, the Board considered that the Adviser and Sub-Adviser will provide office space, bookkeeping, accounting, legal and compliance services, clerical and administrative services and have authorized their officers and employees to serve as officers of the Fund. The Board noted that the Adviser and Sub-Adviser will also be responsible for monitoring and reviewing the activities of the Fund’s third-party service providers, including J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. in its capacity as the sub-administrator to the Fund. In connection with the services provided by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, the Board considered the structure and duties of their fund administration and accounting, operations, and their legal and compliance departments to determine whether they are adequate to meet the needs of the Fund.

THE PERFORMANCE OF THE ADVISER AND THE SUB-ADVISER. The Board, including the Independent Directors, also considered the investment performance of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. In connection with this review, the Board received information from BAM PIC regarding the investment performance of similar accounts as well as the investment performance of an existing private fund, Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund SCSP (the “Private Fund”), since inception. The Board noted that it was proposed that the Private Fund would reorganize into the Fund in connection with the Fund’s launch (the “Reorganization”).

The Board noted that the Private Fund was accessible to investors via Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund S.A. SICAV-RAIF (“BII SICAV”) and that materials on the performance of the BII SICAV were included in the meeting materials. The Board then noted, however, that this performance information was provided solely to illustrate the Adviser’s experience across relevant investments and is not necessarily indicative of the returns that the Fund can expect to achieve should the Reorganization be consummated. The Board considered the total return (not annualized) for each class of the BII SICAV, noting that Class A had total return of 2.65% (since inception on March 1, 2023), Class B had total return of 2.90% (since inception on February 1, 2023), Class C had total return of 2.64% (since inception on March 1, 2023), and Class D had total return of 2.88% (since inception on February 1, 2023). The Board noted the performance history of the Private Fund and similar accounts advised by the Adviser.

THE COST OF THE ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY SERVICES, AND THE PROFITABILITY TO THE ADVISER, ITS AFFILIATES, AND TO THE SUB-ADVISER FROM THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FUND. The Board also received information regarding the management fees to be paid by the Fund to BAM PIC pursuant to the Advisory Agreement and the fees paid by BAM PIC to PSG pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board also considered information about the fee rates offered by the Fund’s peers as presented in the Broadridge report. The Broadridge report provided information regarding the management fees to be paid by the Fund pursuant to the Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board examined this information in order to determine the reasonableness of the fees in light of the nature and quality of the services to be provided and any potential additional benefits to be received by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser, or their affiliates in connection with providing such services to the Fund. The Board noted that the management fee for the Adviser was set at an annual rate of 1.25% of the value of the Fund’s net assets, and also that any fee payable to the Sub-Adviser would be paid by the Adviser out of its management fee, rather than paid separately by the Fund, which was considered to be a benefit to the Fund’s stockholders.

To assist in analyzing the reasonableness of the management fee for the Fund, the Board received reports independently prepared by Broadridge. The reports showed comparative fee and expense information for the Fund’s expense group (“Expense Group”) and expense universe (“Expense Universe”), including rankings within each category, as determined by Broadridge. In considering the reasonableness of the management fees to be paid by the Fund to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Board was presented with a number of expense comparisons, including: (i) contractual and actual management fees; and (ii) actual total operating expenses. In considering the Fund’s total operating expenses, the Board also considered the level of fee waivers and expense reimbursements, as applicable, and the net expense caps contractually agreed upon by Brookfield with respect to the Fund. The Board acknowledged that it was difficult to make precise comparisons with other funds in the Expense Group and Expense Universe since the exact nature of services provided under the various fund agreements is often not apparent. The Board noted, however, that the comparative fee information provided by Broadridge as a whole was useful in assessing whether Brookfield was providing services at a cost that was competitive with other, similar funds.

2023 Annual Report 37

  

BROOKFIELD INFRASTRUCTURE INCOME FUND INC.

Board Considerations Relating to the Approval of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

(Unaudited) (continued)

The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fees were above the median of its Expense Group (ranked 8/10) and above the median of its Expense Universe (ranked 14/21), but that the Fund’s total expenses were below the median of its Expense Group (ranked 4/10) and below the median of the Expense Universe (ranked 8/21).

The Board noted that while a registered fund board is typically also asked to consider information about the nature and extent of investment advisory services and fee rates offered to other clients of the investment adviser, including institutional separate accounts and/or funds sub-advised by such adviser, in connection with the 15(c) approval process, the Adviser currently has no product offerings comparable to the Fund that feature the investment strategy of the Fund. The Board considered, however, the management fee rate in place for the Private Fund.

In considering the Fund’s management fee rate, the Board also considered the complexity of the Fund’s organizational and operational structure as a closed-end management investment company operated as a tender offer fund, and its unique investment strategy that offers retail access, relative to other types of clients, and to note the differences, as applicable, in the regulatory, legal, and other risks and responsibilities of providing services to the different clients.

As the Fund has not commenced operations, the Board was not asked to consider the anticipated profitability of BAM PIC with respect to the Fund. However, the Board noted that BAM PIC agreed to enter into a contractual expense limitation waiver (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”) for the Fund so that certain of the Fund’s expenses would not exceed 0.70% per annum of the Fund’s average monthly net assets of each class of the Fund’s shares of common stock.

With respect to PSG, however, the Board noted that the Fund is part of the Brookfield Fund Complex,² and considered PSG’s expected profits and that of its affiliates for providing administrative support for the Fund. In analyzing PSG's profitability, particular attention was given to the allocation of the direct and indirect costs of the resources and expenses in managing the Fund, as well as the non-Fund and non-advisory business activities. The Board further noted that the methodology followed in allocating costs to the Fund appeared reasonable, while also recognizing that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective. The Board concluded that the expected profitability to PSG from the Fund was reasonable.

THE EXTENT TO WHICH ECONOMIES OF SCALE WILL BE REALIZED AS THE FUND GROWS AND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THOSE ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Board, including the Independent Directors, considered whether stockholders would benefit from economies of scale and whether there was potential for future realization of economies with respect to the Fund. In particular, the Board considered whether the possible realization by the Adviser of economies of scale in providing services to the Fund would justify a reduction of the rate of the advisory fees as applied to larger amounts of assets under management. The Board was asked to consider that, due to being a part of the Brookfield Fund Complex, the constituent funds, including the Fund, share common resources and may share certain expenses, and if the size of the complex increases, each fund could incur lower expenses than they otherwise would achieve as stand-alone entities. However, the Board noted that although stockholders might benefit from lower operating expenses because of an increasing amount of assets spread over the fixed expenses of the funds, the Fund’s Expense Limitation Agreement with the Adviser will serve to limit the Fund’s expenses until the Fund can grow to scale.

OTHER FACTORS. As part of its evaluation of the compensation for each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Board also considered other benefits that each may realize from their relationship with the Fund. Among them, the Board considered the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional funds and accounts and reputational benefits.

² The Brookfield Fund Complex is comprised of the Fund, Brookfield Investment Funds (6 series of underlying portfolios), Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc. (NYSE: RA) and Oaktree Diversified Income Fund Inc. (the "Brookfield Fund Complex").

Board Considerations Relating to the Approval of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

(Unaudited) (continued)

CONCLUSION. After a full and complete discussion, the Board approved the Agreements, each for an initial two-year period. Based upon their evaluation of all these factors in their totality, the Board, including the Independent Directors, was satisfied that the terms of the Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the Fund and the Fund's stockholders. In arriving at a decision to approve the Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and each Independent Director may have attributed different weights to different factors. The Independent Directors were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (Unaudited)

The Fund has adopted a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “DRIP,” or the “Plan”) that provides that, unless stockholders elect to receive their distributions in cash, they will be automatically reinvested by SS&C GIDS, Inc. (in such capacity, the “Plan Administrator”), in additional Shares. If stockholders elect to receive distributions in cash, they will receive them paid by check mailed directly to them by the Plan Administrator.

The Fund may pay distributions from sources that may not be available in the future and that are unrelated to the Fund’s performance, such as from offering proceeds and/or borrowings.

Shares received under the Plan will be issued to stockholders at their NAV on the ex-dividend date; there is no sales or other charge for reinvestment. Stockholders are free to withdraw from the Plan and elect to receive cash at any time by giving written notice to the Plan Administrator or by contacting the broker or dealer, who will inform the Fund.

The Plan Administrator provides written confirmation of all transactions in the shareholder accounts in the Plan, including information stockholders may need for tax records. Any proxy stockholders receive will include all Shares received under the Plan.

Automatically reinvested dividends and distributions are taxed in the same manner as cash dividends and distributions.

The Fund and the Plan Administrator reserve the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. If the Plan is amended to include such service charges, the Plan Administrator will include a notification to registered stockholders with the Plan Administrator.

Additional information about the Plan may be obtained from the Plan Administrator.

Tax Fees

There were no fees paid by the registrant to the principal accountant for the performance of tax services during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. The registrant engaged an entity other than the principal accountant for the performance of tax services.

The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for the Fund’s most recent fiscal year for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.

(h) The audit committee of the Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment adviser and administrator is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

The information below provides a description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities, including the procedures that the Fund uses when a vote presents a conflict of interest.

Proxy Voting Responsibility. The Adviser has adopted policies and procedures for the voting of proxies relating to portfolio securities for the client accounts over which it has been delegated and/or granted proxy voting authority, including the Fund (the “Policies”). The Policies, which have been adopted by the Board of Directors on behalf of the Fund, enable the Fund to vote proxies in a manner consistent with the best interests of the Fund’s stockholders. A committee has been established (the “Proxy Voting Committee”) to administer the voting of all proxies in accordance with the Policies. The Proxy Voting Committee meets regularly with representatives of the Legal, Compliance, Operations and Investment teams. The Proxy Voting Committee has engaged the services of a third-party proxy voting agent to act as agent to vote proxies, and oversees such third-party proxy voting agent’s compliance with the Policies, including any deviations by the proxy voting agent from the third-party proxy voting guidelines (the “Guidelines”). Under the Policies, the Adviser has adopted the Guidelines as the basis for how proxy proposals are evaluated and voted upon. The Fund is generally a passive investor in holding portfolio securities, seeking to maximize stockholder value, but not necessarily to exercise control over the issuers of portfolio securities, or otherwise advance a particular agenda. In addition, in accordance with local law or business practices, many foreign companies prevent the sales of Shares that have been voted for a certain period beginning prior to the stockholder meeting and ending on the day following the meeting. The costs of voting proxies with respect to Shares of foreign companies include the potentially serious portfolio management consequences of reduced flexibility to sell the Shares at the most advantageous time for the Fund. As a result, such proxies generally will not be voted in the absence of an unusual, significant vote of compelling economic importance. In determining whether to vote proxies under these circumstances, the Adviser, in consultation with the Proxy Voting Committee, considers whether the costs of voting proxies with respect to such Shares of foreign companies generally outweigh any benefits that may be achieved by voting such proxies.

Case-By-Case Voting Matters. Under the Guidelines, certain voting matters are determined on a case-by-case basis. In these circumstances, and in proposals not specifically addressed by the Policies, the Proxy Voting Committee generally will rely on the guidance or a recommendation from the third-party proxy voting agent, or other sources. The Proxy Voting Committee may propose to deviate from the Guidelines or guidance or recommendations from the third-party proxy voting agent. In these instances, the Proxy Voting Committee will recommend the vote that will maximize value for, and is in the best interests of, the Fund’s stockholders.

Conflicts of Interest. Members of the Proxy Voting Committee will seek to resolve any conflicts of interest presented by a proxy vote. In practice, application of the Guidelines will in most instances adequately address any possible conflicts of interest, as votes generally are affected according to the guidance or recommendations of the third-party proxy voting agent. However, if a situation arises where a vote presents a conflict between the interests of the Fund’s stockholders and the interests of the Adviser, and the conflict is known to the Proxy Voting Committee, the Committee may retain an independent fiduciary for advice on how to vote the proposal or the Committee may direct the Adviser to abstain from voting because voting on the proposal is impracticable and/or is outweighed by the cost of voting.

Proxy Voting Records. The Proxy Voting Committee will be responsible for documenting its basis for (a) any determination to vote a particular proxy in a manner contrary to the Guidelines, (b) any determination to vote a particular proxy in a non-uniform manner, and (c) any other material determination made by the Proxy Voting Committee, as well as for ensuring the maintenance of records of each proxy vote, as required by applicable law. The third-party proxy voting agent will maintain records of voting decisions for each vote cast on behalf of the Fund. The proxy voting record for the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30 is available: (i) without charge, upon request, by calling toll-free at 1-855-777-8001; and (ii) on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

Board Reporting. The Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer will provide a summary report of proxy voting matters at each quarterly meeting of the Board of Directors, which describes any Proxy Voting Committee meeting(s) held during the prior quarter.

Proxy Voting Guidelines. Guidelines are available upon request.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

Brookfield is a global alternative asset manager with significant assets under management and a long history of owning, managing and operating assets, businesses and investment vehicles across various sectors (and underlying industries), geographies and strategies. As noted in this SAI, a key element of the Fund’s strategy is to leverage Brookfield’s experience and expertise and its broad reach, relationships and position in the market for investment opportunities and deal flow, financial resources, access to capital markets and operating needs. Brookfield believes this is in the Fund’s and its Portfolio Investments’ best interests. However, being part of this broader platform, as well as activities of and other considerations relating to Brookfield and Brookfield Accounts, give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest which may not be resolved in favor of the Fund’s or its Portfolio Investments’ interests.

Brookfield’s activities include, among others: investment and asset management; sponsoring, offering and managing private and public investment vehicles that invest in the global fixed income, currency, commodity, equities, secondaries, private and other markets; developing, constructing, owning, managing, operating and servicing real estate and related companies and assets, renewable power and related companies, assets and facilities, infrastructure and related companies and assets, and other businesses and assets including data centers, transportation facilities, electric utilities, industrial and manufacturing facilities, energy companies, metals and mining companies, timberlands and agrilands, natural gas pipelines and storage systems and other assets; providing capital and financing solutions, as well as financial advisory, business development and other financial services; and other activities (collectively, “Brookfield Activities”). While it is expected that the Fund will benefit from Brookfield’s expertise, market positioning and connectivity that arise from Brookfield Activities, in the ordinary course of its business, Brookfield’s interests or the interests of the clients or others receiving services through Brookfield Activities (including other Brookfield Accounts) may conflict with the interests of the Fund, notwithstanding Brookfield’s direct or indirect participation in the Fund or the Fund’s Portfolio Investments. While Brookfield expects that its expertise as a global real asset operator will directly impact the Adviser’s and the Fund’s ability to identify, access and assess investment opportunities, and that the Fund’s Portfolio Investments will benefit from the greater Brookfield ecosystem, there can be no assurance of any such successful collaboration or synergies. A lack of successful collaboration or synergies, whether as a result of concerns related to conflicts or otherwise, may impact Brookfield’s ability to successfully implement its strategies or achieve its investment objectives.

Portfolio Manager Compensation

Each Portfolio Manager is compensated based on the scale and complexity of his portfolio responsibilities, the total return performance of funds and accounts managed by the Portfolio Manager on an absolute basis and when compared to appropriate peer groups of similar size and strategy, as well as the management skills displayed in managing their portfolio teams and the teamwork displayed in working with other members of their firm. Since each Portfolio Manager is responsible for multiple funds and accounts, investment performance is evaluated on an aggregate basis almost equally weighted among performance, management and teamwork. Base compensation for each Portfolio Manager varies in line with their seniority and position. The compensation of a Portfolio Manager with other job responsibilities (such as acting as an executive officer of their firm or supervising various departments) includes consideration of the scope of such responsibilities and the Portfolio Manager’s performance in meeting them. The Investment Adviser seeks to compensate each Portfolio Manager commensurate with their responsibilities and performance, and that is competitive with other firms within the investment management industry. Salaries, bonuses and stock based compensation also are influenced by the operating performance of their respective firms and their parent companies. While the salaries of each Portfolio Manager is comparatively fixed, cash bonuses and stock based compensation may fluctuate significantly from year to year. Bonuses are determined on a discretionary basis by the senior executives of their respective firm and measured by individual and team-oriented performance guidelines. The amount of the Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) is approved annually and there is a rolling vesting schedule to aid in retention of key people. A key component of this program is achievement of client objectives in order to properly align interests with our clients. Further, the incentive compensation of all investment personnel who work on each strategy is directly tied to the relative performance of the strategy and its clients.

The compensation structure of each Portfolio Manager and other investment professionals has four primary components:

● A base salary;

● An annual cash bonus;

● If applicable, long-term compensation consisting of restricted stock units or stock options of the Adviser’s ultimate parent company, Brookfield Asset Management; and

● If applicable, long-term compensation consisting of restricted stock units in private funds managed by the investment professional.

Each Portfolio Manager also receives certain retirement, insurance and other benefits that are broadly available to all employees. Compensation of each Portfolio Manager is reviewed on an annual basis by senior management.
