 presented to the Holding LP in exchange for one of our partnership’s units (subject to certain customary adjustments). Both the units issued by our partnership and the Redeemable Partnership Units issued by the Holding LP have the same economic attributes in all respects, except for the redemption right described above. The Redeemable Partnership Units participate in earnings and distributions on a per unit basis equivalent to the per unit participation of the units of our partnership. Our partnership reflects the Redeemable Partnership Units issued to Brookfield by the Holding LP as a separate component of non-controlling interest, within consolidated equity, as Brookfield Infrastructure can, at its sole discretion, elect to satisfy a redemption request by Brookfield of the Redeemable Partnership Units by issuing an equal number of units.

In addition, Exchange LP, a subsidiary of our partnership, issued Exchange LP Units in connection with the privatization of Enercare in October 2018. Exchange LP Units provide holders with economic terms that are substantially equivalent to those of our units and are exchangeable, on a one-for-one basis, for our units. Given the exchangeable feature, we present the Exchange LP Units as a separate component of non-controlling interests.

On March 31, 2020, our partnership completed the creation of BIPC with the special distribution. Each unitholder of record on March 20, 2020 received one BIPC exchangeable share for every nine units held. Holders of BIPC exchangeable shares have the right to exchange all or a portion of their shares for one unit per BIPC exchangeable share held or its cash equivalent on a fixed-for-fixed basis. BIPC or the partnership, as applicable, each have the ability to satisfy exchange requests by holders of BIPC exchangeable shares in units instead of cash. Additionally, the partnership has the ability to exchange all BIPC exchangeable shares for units at our election, on a fixed-for-fixed basis. As a result of the share characteristics, we present the BIPC exchangeable shares as a component of non-controlling interests.

In the third and fourth quarters of 2021, BIPC Exchange LP, a subsidiary of our partnership, issued BIPC Exchangeable LP Units in connection with the acquisition of our Canadian diversified midstream operation. BIPC Exchangeable LP Units provide holders with economic terms that are substantially equivalent to those of a BIPC exchangeable share and are exchangeable, on a one-for-one basis, for BIPC exchangeable shares.
