TABLE OF CONTENTS
Section 2 Financial Information
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On May 2, 2006, Macquarie Infrastructure Company LLC (MIC or the Company) filed a current
report on Form 8-K with respect to the completion on May 1, 2006 of its acquisition, through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Macquarie Infrastructure Company Inc. (MIC Inc.), of 50% of the shares
of IMTT Holdings Inc., formerly known as Loving Enterprises, Inc. (IMTT Holdings). IMTT Holdings
is the ultimate holding company for a group of companies and partnerships that own a bulk liquid
storage terminal business operating as International-Matex Tank Terminals (IMTT). This current
report on Form 8-K/A (this Report) amends and restates the prior report in its entirety.
IMTT primarily provides bulk liquid storage and handling services in North America through a total
of eight terminals located on the East, West and Gulf Coasts as well as the Great Lakes region of
the United States and a partially owned terminal in each of Quebec and Newfoundland, Canada, with the predominant
terminals located on the New York harbor and on the Mississippi River near the Gulf of Mexico. IMTT
stores and handles petroleum products, various chemicals and vegetable and tropical oils. IMTT is
one of the largest companies in the bulk liquid storage terminal industry in the United States,
based on capacity.
Refer to the presentation located at www.shareholder.com/mic/ReleaseDetail.cfm?ReleaseID=192960 for
further information on IMTTs business.
The purchase of the 50% interest in IMTT Holdings was recorded using the purchase method of
accounting. The $257.0 million purchase price, including transaction costs of $7.0 million, was
funded with $82.0 million of cash on hand and $175.0 million of debt from the MIC Inc. revolving
acquisition facility. The Company expects the transaction to be immediately yield accretive, after
taking into account additional management fees payable by MIC to Macquarie Infrastructure
Management (USA) Inc. (Manager).
IMTT
Holdings has distributed $100.0 million of the proceeds from
MICs investment to the pre-existing
shareholders as a dividend. The remaining $150.0 million, less approximately $5.0 million that will
be used to pay fees and expenses incurred by IMTT Holdings in connection with the transaction, will
be used ultimately to finance additional investment by IMTT in existing and new facilities.
The Companys share of IMTT Holdings consolidated results will be included in the results of
operations of the Company under the equity method of accounting and will constitute a new segment
from May 1, 2006. Until December 31, 2007, subject to compliance with law, the debt covenants
applicable to its subsidiaries and retention of appropriate levels of reserves, IMTT Holdings will
distribute $7.0 million per quarter to the Company. Subsequent to December 31, 2007, subject to the
same limitations as apply prior to December 31, 2007 and subject
to IMTT Holdings consolidated net debt to EBITDA ratio not
exceeding 4.25:1 as at each quarter end, the Company expects that substantially all of
IMTT Holdings consolidated cash flow from operations and
cashflows from (but not used in) investing activities less maintenance and environmental
remediation capital expenditure will be available for distribution to its shareholders.
Macquarie Securities (USA) Inc. (MSUSA), acted as an advisor to the Company in the transaction
for which it will receive fees and expense payments totaling approximately $4.4 million which is
included in the $7.0 million of transaction costs discussed
above. In addition, Macquarie Bank Limited provided approximately
$70.0 million of the financing under the revolving acquisition
facility. MSUSA is a wholly-owned indirect
subsidiary of Macquarie Bank Limited, the parent company of the Companys Manager.

Use of Non-GAAP pro forma financial information
We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
However, we also present Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA),
a non-GAAP financial measure as well as a pro forma EBITDA in the accompanying pro forma condensed
combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.
We believe EBITDA is a useful supplemental financial measure to assess the financial performance of
our assets and our ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest on our indebtedness and make
distributions to our shareholders. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income,
operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance
or liquidity under GAAP. EBITDA as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The key drivers of IMTTs revenue and gross profit are the amount of tank capacity rented to
customers and the rates at which such tankage is rented. Customers generally rent tanks under
contracts with terms of between one and five years. Pursuant to these contracts, customers
generally pay for the capacity of the tank irrespective of whether the tank is actually used. The
key driver of storage capacity utilization and tank rental rates is the demand for tankage relative
to the supply of tankage in a particular region (e.g. New York Harbor, Lower Mississippi River).
Demand for tankage is primarily a function of the level of consumption of the bulk liquid products
stored by the terminals. Demand for petroleum and liquid chemical products, the key products stored
by IMTT, historically has generally been driven by the level of economic growth. Increases in the
supply of new tank capacity in IMTTs key markets has been and will continue to be limited by the
availability of waterfront land with access to the necessary land based infrastructure (road, rail
and pipelines), lengthy environmental permitting processes and high capital costs. Favorable
supply/demand balances for bulk liquid storage currently exist in the markets serviced by IMTTs major
facilities. These factors, when combined with the attributes of IMTTs facilities such as deep
water drafts and access to land based infrastructure have resulted in available storage capacity at
IMTTs terminals for both petroleum and chemical products being consistently fully, or near fully
rented to customers.
IMTT earns revenues at its terminals from a number of sources as follows:
|
|
|
Terminal revenue storage is revenue earned from the basic renting of tanks. Rentals
are generally payable monthly and stated in terms of cents per barrel of storage capacity
per month. Storage rates are generally higher for chemical products compared to petroleum
products due to complexity in handling and the requirement for more specialized tanks with
higher capital and operating costs for the storage of chemicals; |
|
|
|
|
Terminal revenue throughput is revenue earned from charging customers for moving
stored product into and out of the terminal. Usually IMTTs customer contracts permit a
certain number of free product movements with charges for throughput above the prescribed
levels; |
|
|
|
|
Terminal revenue heating is revenue earned from charging customers for the heating of
their tanks. Certain products such as asphalt and residual oil need to be heated to prevent
excessive viscosity. IMTTs customer contracts are structured such that increases and
decreases in IMTTs fuel costs are passed through to customers and hence terminal revenue-
heating is essentially a pass through of IMTTs fuel costs discussed below; and |
|
|
|
|
Terminal revenue other is revenue earned from charging customers for a number of other
services provided by IMTT such as blending, packaging, vapor recovery (which includes a
pass through of the cost of the fuel used in the vapor recovery process) and truck and rail
loading. It also includes rental income derived from renting space in warehouses located at
some of IMTTs terminal operations, income generated by providing transportation services
through the shortline railroad operations that form part of IMTTs Bayonne facility and
investment income and management fees associated with IMTTs non-consolidated investments
in partly owned terminals in Quebec and Newfoundland, Canada. |
Pursuant to IMTTs standard customer contracts, storage rates, throughput rates and the rates for
some other services are subject to annual inflation escalation.
3
In operating its terminals, IMTT incurs labor costs, fuel costs, repair and maintenance costs, real
and personal property taxes and other costs (which include insurance and other operating costs such
as utilities and inventory used in packaging and drumming activities). Fuel costs are largely a
function of natural gas prices and are generally passed through to customers in terminal revenue -
heating and vapor recovery charges included in terminal revenue other. Operating costs other than
fuel costs have historically grown at annual rates in excess of inflation and are generally
insensitive to moderate changes in storage capacity utilization.
In 2005, IMTT generated approximately 53% of its total terminal revenue and 45% of its total
terminal gross profit at its Bayonne, NJ facility, which services New York Harbor, and 32% of its
total terminal revenue and 47% of its total terminal gross profit at its St. Rose, LA, Gretna, LA
and Avondale, LA facilities which together service the lower Mississippi River region (with St.
Rose being by far the largest contributor). Gross profit margins are lower at the Bayonne facility
reflecting the fact that the facility resulted from the combination of smaller facilities
aggregated over time making it more complex to operate than St. Rose and the other terminals
located in Louisiana. The Bayonne terminal also operates in an overall more expensive operating
environment. The balance of IMTTs total terminal revenue and total terminal gross profit in 2005
was generated from IMTTs four other wholly owned storage
facilities in the United States and two partially owned facilities in
Canada.
General and administrative expenses primarily reflect the costs of IMTTs corporate head office
located in New Orleans including labor costs for head office staff, fees for professional services
and head office rent.
There are two key factors that are likely to materially impact IMTTs total terminal revenue and
total terminal gross profit in the future. Firstly, IMTT has achieved substantial increases in
storage rates at its Bayonne and St. Rose facilities as customer contracts expiring in 2005 and
early 2006 have been renewed. In addition, some customers of IMTT have been extending contracts
that do not expire until late 2006 and 2007 at rates above the existing rates under such contracts.
As a consequence, based on the current level of demand for bulk liquid storage in New York Harbor
and the Lower Mississippi River, it is anticipated that IMTT will achieve annual increases in
terminal revenues storage in excess of inflation through 2008.
Secondly,
over the course of 2006 and 2007, IMTT intends to undertake significant expansion capital
expenditure as summarized below which is expected to contribute significantly to total terminal
gross profit in 2007 and beyond.
Geismar Logistics Center
IMTT is currently in the early stages of constructing a bulk liquid chemical storage and handling
facility on the Mississippi River at Geismar, LA (the GLC). IMTT has to date committed
approximately $134.0 million of expansion capital expenditure to the project that will initially
include a dock, approximately 570,000 barrels of chemical storage (30 tanks) and a
drumming/warehouse facility. The facility is located in the midst of a large chemical production
complex and will seek to provide storage and handling services both to the operators of the various
plants within the complex and to other third parties requiring bulk liquid chemical storage in the
lower Mississippi River region. BASF Corporation, which operates a plant within the Geismar
chemical production complex, is a cornerstone customer of the GLC and has entered into a long term
contract with IMTT. IMTT is currently in discussions with BASF and other potential customers to
increase the size of the GLC and the scope of services provided. Based on the current project scope
and subject to certain minimum volumes of chemical products being handled by the facility, upon
completion of construction of the GLC existing customer contracts will provide for a return of, and
return on, the expansion capital currently committed by generating terminal gross profit and EBITDA
of approximately $18.8 million per year. Completion of construction of the initial $134.0 million
phase of the GLC project is targeted for the end of 2007. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina,
construction costs in the region affected by the hurricane have increased and labor shortages have
been experienced. This could have a negative impact on the cost of
constructing the GLC (which may not be offset by an increase in gross
profit) and the
construction schedule. Substantial delays in completion of construction could result in a loss of
customer contracts and a reduction in the GLCs contribution to terminal gross profit and EBITDA.
Capacity Additions at Existing Terminals
Supported by strong demand for bulk liquid storage capacity in the lower Mississippi River region,
IMTT is currently in the process of constructing ten new storage tanks with capacity of
approximately one million barrels at its St. Rose facility at a total
estimated cost of $25.0
million. It is anticipated that construction of these tanks will be completed from late 2006
through early 2007. Rental contracts with customers with initial
terms of at least three years have
already been executed in relation to eight of these tanks with the balance of the tanks to be used
to service customers while their existing tanks are undergoing maintenance over the next five
years. Overall, it is anticipated that the operation of the new tanks
will contribute approximately $4.1 million to IMTTs terminal gross profit and EBITDA annually. In addition to the expansions
currently underway, numerous additional expansion opportunities that would be carried out during
2006 and 2007 are currently under consideration by IMTT. If such opportunities are realized it is
anticipated that the return on investment will likely be comparable to those from the tank
4
expansions discussed above. IMTT has space available at a number of its facilities, particularly
St. Rose, to accommodate further expansion of storage capacity.
Outside of its terminal operations, IMTT also owns an environmental response (spill clean up)
business called Oil Mop and a nursery business called St. Rose Nursery.
Oil Mop has a network of facilities along the US Gulf coast between Houston and New Orleans. These
facilities service predominantly the Gulf region, but also respond to spill events as needed
throughout the United States and internationally. The business generates approximately one half of
its revenue from spill clean up, one quarter from tank cleaning and demolition and the balance from
other activities including waste disposal and material sales to the spill clean up sector. The
underlying drivers of demand for spill clean up services include shipping and oil and gas industry
activity levels in the Gulf region, the aging of pipeline and other mid-stream petroleum
infrastructure, the frequency of natural disasters and regulations regarding the
standard of spill clean up. Revenue generated by Oil Mop from spill clean up tends to be highly
variable depending on the frequency and magnitude of spills in any particular period. For example,
in 2005 Oil Mop was appointed as the lead contractor to clean up a large oil spill that occurred
during hurricane Katrina resulting in an environmental response gross profit of $12.3 million in
2005 compared to $6.4 million in 2004. The performance of Oil Mop during 2005 is not expected to be
repeated in future years and the 2004 results reflect a more normalized year.
The St. Rose Nursery business is located adjacent to IMTTs St. Rose terminal and acts as a green
buffer between the terminal and neighboring residential properties. St. Rose Nursery grows plants
and repackages cut flowers, both for sale through retail outlets throughout Louisiana and
historically has operated on essentially a gross profit neutral basis.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004.
Revenues from tank storage and terminal charges, railroad operations, other rental income and other
income reflected in IMTT Holdings audited consolidated statements of income for the year ended
December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 have been reclassified in the below presentation as follows.
|
|
|
Tank storage and terminal charges revenue has been segmented into terminal revenue
storage, terminal revenue throughput, terminal revenue heating and terminal revenue
other for a more meaningful analysis; and |
|
|
|
|
Other rental income, railroad operations revenue and other income have been combined
into terminal revenue other. |
In addition, other operating expenses reflected in IMTT Holdings audited consolidated statements
of income have been segmented to separately reflect fuel costs (terminal operating costs fuel)
distinct from other costs (terminal operating costs other).

Terminal gross profit increased by $6.2 million (8%); |
|
|
|
|
Terminal revenue-storage increased by $10.2 million due to a combination of an increase
in storage capacity rented to customers (40% of increase) and increase in storage rates
(60% of increase) and terminal revenue-other increased by $3.2 million due to increased
revenue from miscellaneous services. In 2005, IMTT also achieved a $2.1 million improvement
in the differential between terminal revenue heating and terminal operating costs fuel
due to improved customer contract terms and efficiency gains in the use of fuel; |
|
|
|
|
The increase in terminal revenue-storage and terminal revenue-other was partially offset
by $10.0 million increase in terminal operating costs other than terminal operating
costs-fuel. Of this increase in terminal operating costs, $3.2 million related to the cost
of a natural resource damages settlement reached with the State of New Jersey which is not
expected to re-occur. The balance of the increase was due to general increases in direct
labor costs and health benefit costs, property taxes, power costs and environmental
compliance costs; |
|
|
|
|
In 2005, IMTTs major terminals maintained near full storage capacity utilization and
achieved increases in average storage rates for all major petroleum commodities stored; |
|
|
|
|
Environmental response (Oil Mop) gross profit increased by $5.9 million in 2005
principally due to spill clean up activities resulting from hurricane Katrina; and |
|
|
|
|
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.9 million. Of this increase,
$921,000 related to costs incurred by IMTT when it temporarily relocated its head office
from New Orleans to Bayonne in the immediate aftermath of hurricane Katrina. This loss may
be recoverable in whole or part under IMTTs insurance policies, however, this has yet to
be confirmed. Other than a $325,000 insurance deductible expensed during 2005, IMTT
incurred no other material costs related to hurricane Katrina. |

Terminal gross profit was substantially unchanged; |
|
|
|
|
Terminal revenue-storage increased by $8.9 million due to a combination of an increase
in storage capacity rented to customers (72% of increase) and increases in storage rates
(28% of increase); |
|
|
|
|
The increase in terminal revenue-storage was offset by increases in terminal operating
costs other than terminal operating costs-fuel (which were passed through as increased
terminal revenue-heating). Of the increase in terminal operating
costs, approximately $3.0
million related to the operating costs associated with a facility that was acquired in
2004 and combined into IMTTs Bayonne facility. The balance of the increase was due to
general increases in direct labor costs, health benefit costs, workers compensation
insurance costs and increases in property taxes and environmental compliance costs; |
|
|
|
|
In 2004, IMTTs major terminals maintained near full storage capacity utilization and
achieved increases in average storage rates for all major petroleum commodities stored; and |
|
|
|
|
Environmental response (Oil Mop) gross profit increased by $5.2 million in 2004
principally due to spill clean up activities resulting from hurricane Ivan. |

Cash flow provided by operations increased by 22.5% from 2003 to 2004 and 27% from 2004 to 2005
primarily due to increases in gross profit.
As discussed above in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations Overview, significant growth in terminal revenue and terminal gross profit is expected
over the period from 2006 through 2008 and it is anticipated that this will have a corresponding
positive impact on cash flow from operations over the same period. In addition, IMTT Holdings Inc.
which files a consolidated U.S. federal tax return for IMTT, as at the end of 2005 had carried
forward federal tax net operating losses of approximately $80.0 million. Thus it is anticipated that
IMTT will not pay any significant amounts of US federal taxation over the period from 2006 through
2008.

Cash flow used in Investing Activities declined by $13.9 million from 2004 to 2005 due to a decline
in expansion capital expenditure that was partially offset by an increase in maintenance capital
expenditure (which includes capitalized expenditures on existing plant and equipment and
environmental related expenditures). Expansion capital expenditure in 2005 related primarily to the
on-going tank capacity additions at St. Rose discussed in Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations Overview above and various other facility
improvements. Expansion capital expenditure in 2004 related primarily to the acquisition and
refurbishment of a terminal adjoining IMTTs Bayonne terminal and new boilers and pier
modifications at Bayonne.
Cash flow used in Investing Activities increased by $8.5 million from 2003 to 2004 due to a decline
in maintenance capital expenditure that was more than offset by an increase in expansion capital
expenditure discussed in the paragraph above.
8
Expansion capital expenditure in 2003 related primarily to tank capacity additions at St. Rose and
Bayonne and new boilers and pipeline relocations at Bayonne.
Looking forward it is anticipated that total maintenance capital expenditure is unlikely to exceed
a range of between $30.0 million and $40.0 million per year. The increase from historical levels
primarily reflects the need for increased environmental expenditures going forward both to
remediate existing sites and to upgrade waste water treatment and spill containment infrastructure
to comply with existing, and currently foreseeable changes to, environmental regulations. Further
discussion of IMTTs future environmental remediations and compliance expenditure, is provided in
Note 6 to the accompanying financial statements.

Cash flow provided by financing activities in 2003 and 2004 principally reflects the net debt
funding required to finance expansion capital expenditure in those years. In 2005 expansion capital
expenditures were lower than in prior years and the excess of cash provided by operations over
capital expenditures was used to reduce debt and to make distributions to shareholders of IMTT and
advances to their affiliates.
Sources of Funding for IMTTs Future Expansion Capital Expenditure and Dividend Policy
As discussed in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations Overview, IMTT intends to undertake at the
least approximately $159.0 million of
expansion capital expenditure over the course of 2006 and 2007. It is anticipated that this
expansion capital expenditure and IMTTs dividend payments during 2006 and 2007 as prescribed in
the shareholders agreement between MIC and the other shareholders of IMTT Holdings will be fully
funded using a combination of IMTTs cash flow from operations, IMTTs current debt facilities
(which are intended to be refinanced and increased during 2006 and 2007), the proceeds from MICs
investment in IMTT Holdings (net of the $100.0 million dividend payment to shareholders other than
MIC) and future shareholder loans. Pursuant to the terms of the shareholders agreement, all
shareholders in IMTT other than MIC are required to loan all dividends received by them (excluding
the $100.0 million dividend), net of tax payable in relation to such dividends, through the
quarter ending December 31, 2007 back to IMTT Holdings. The shareholder loan will have at a fixed
interest rate of 5.5% and be repaid over 15 years with equal quarterly amortization. Further
discussion of IMTTs current debt facilities is provided in Note 4 to the accompanying financial
statements. It should be noted that the waivers referred to in Note 4 in respect of the guarantee
of the $130.0 million term loan have been received subsequent to December 31, 2005.
Starting
in 2008, subject to the limitations discussed in Item 2.01
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets, the shareholders agreement requires IMTT Holdings to pay quarterly distributions
in amounts equal to the sum of consolidated quarterly cash flow
provided by operations and
cashflows from (but not used in) investing activities less quarterly
environmental remediation and maintenance capital
expenditure (which includes capitalized expenditures on existing
plant and equipment and environmental related expenditures). Due
to the factors discussed above in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations Overview, based on current market
conditions and assuming that a number of the expansion opportunities
currently being considered by IMTT are pursued and completed prior to
the end of 2007, it is anticipated that total
terminal revenue, terminal gross profit and cash flow from operations will increase significantly
through 2008, enabling the initial level of annual distributions from
IMTT to MIC to be at least substantially maintained beyond
2007.
9
US Federal Income Taxation of Distributions Received by MIC from IMTT
The portion of the distributions received by MIC from IMTT Holdings that are characterized as
dividends for US federal income tax purposes will be included in the consolidated federal taxable
income of MIC Inc. As MIC Inc. holds a 50% interest in IMTT Holdings, MIC Inc. is entitled to a
dividends received deduction (DRD) equal to 80% of the lesser of the dividend income included in
its taxable income or the US federal consolidated taxable income of MIC Inc. and its subsidiaries,
before taking into consideration the DRD and any net operating loss deduction. Therefore, subject
to the limitation based on taxable income, MIC Inc. will effectively include only a net 20% of the
portion of the distributions received by it from IMTT Holdings that are characterized as dividends
for US federal income tax purpose in its taxable income. The portion of IMTT Holdings distributions
that will be characterized as dividends for US federal income tax purposes will be determined by
the earnings and profits of IMTT Holdings, which has filed, and will continue to file, a
consolidated federal tax return for the IMTT group. Distributions from IMTT Holdings that are not
characterized as dividends are treated as a return of capital and are not included in MIC Inc.s
taxable income but do reduce MIC Inc.s tax basis in its investment in IMTT Holdings.
