I was looking at a pic of the AC, it looked like it might have 2 exhaust ports. Does anybody know?

I don't think so. It will be the same as the Suzuki though.

I read that Suzuki owns 25% of Arctic Cat, thus the use of Suzuki engines in Arctic Cat machines.

Based on this information they may own upwards of 33%. It states that almost 33 percent of their shares are class B and are held by suzuki motor company. Here is a link to this info.

This is one more reason that arctic cat will probably be getting the z400 with different plastic.

Suzuki makes a great motor, and for suzuki to spend the money to design two motors would be a waste when you have a perfectly good and powerful motor already designed, so why not use it in both quads.
