Service Provision Continuity

HICL Infrastructure Company Limited ("HICL" or the "Company"), the listed infrastructure investment company advised by InfraRed Capital Partners Limited ("InfraRed"), notes the recent announcement from Carillion plc ("Carillion") regarding its compulsory liquidation.

Acting through the Risk Committee, the HICL Board and InfraRed make ongoing assessments of counterparties, potential issues in the HICL supply chain and related contingency planning. In particular, a contingency plan has already been developed that specifically contemplated a scenario where Carillion enters liquidation and InfraRed has been working for some time with a number of potential replacement service providers. The contingency plan has been activated and the InfraRed Asset Management Team is working in conjunction with all stakeholders to ensure continuity of service provision at the relevant PPP projects.

Carillion provided facilities management services to 10 of the PPP project companies in which HICL is invested, representing approximately 14% of Portfolio Value. The Company's overriding objective is to protect the delivery of services to stakeholders, including its public sector clients and the users of the facilities that form part of the relevant PPP projects. The HICL Board and InfraRed are confident the actions already under way will achieve this and that permanent replacement facilities management services providers will be secured as soon as practicable. A further update will be issued in due course.
