 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of 

VERESEN INC. 
 For the years ended December 31, 2016
and 2015 

 

 
 February 28, 2017 

Independent Auditor’s Report 
 To the Shareholders
of 
 Veresen Inc. 
 We have audited the accompanying
consolidated financial statements of Veresen Inc., which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and the consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss),
shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes, which comprise a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. 

Management’s responsibility for the consolidated financial statements 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error. 
 Auditor’s responsibility 
 Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures
selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal
control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the consolidated financial statements. 
 We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion.

years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

	2.	Basis of Presentation 

 These consolidated financial statements of Veresen Inc. have been prepared by
management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). 
 Amounts are stated in
millions of Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated. 
 The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, financial instruments and taxes. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates used in the preparation of these
consolidated financial statements relate to the determination of any impairment in the carrying value of long-term assets, the estimated useful lives over which certain assets are depreciated or amortized, and the measurement of asset retirement
obligations, and contingencies. 
 These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company
consolidates its interest in entities over which it is able to exercise control. To the extent there are interests owned by other parties, the other parties’ interests are included in Non-Controlling
Interest. Veresen accounts for its jointly-controlled businesses using the equity method, and its investment in Ruby Pipeline Holding Company LLC (“Ruby”) using the cost method. 

Reporting in Accordance with US GAAP 
 In February
2014 the Alberta Securities Commission (“ASC”) and Ontario Securities Commission (“OSC”) issued a relief order which permits the Company to continue to prepare its financial statements in accordance with US GAAP until the
earliest of: (i) January 1, 2019; (ii) the first day of the financial year that commences after the Company ceases to have activities subject to rate regulation; or (iii) the effective date prescribed by the International Accounting
Standards Board for the mandatory application of a standard within International Financial Reporting Standards specific to entities with activities subject to rate regulation. 

 

	3.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

 New Accounting Pronouncements 

The following new Accounting Standards updates (“ASU”) have been issued, as of December 31, 2016: 

Effective January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities: Elimination of
Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation”. This ASU eliminates the concept of a development-stage entity from US GAAP along with the associated
presentation and disclosure requirements for development-stage entities. The consolidation guidance was also amended to eliminate the development stage entity relief when applying the variable interest entity model and evaluating the sufficiency of
equity at risk. This guidance was applied retrospectively and did not have a material impact to the Company. 
 Effective January 1, 2016, the Company
adopted ASU 2014-16, “Derivatives and Hedging.” This ASU provides guidance to clarify the criteria in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial
instrument that is issued in the form of a share. This guidance was applied retrospectively and did not have a material impact to the Company. 
 Effective
January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-01, “Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items”. This ASU simplifies income statement classification by removing the concept of
extraordinary items from US GAAP. This guidance was applied prospectively and did not have a material impact to the Company. 

  
 9 

 Effective January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-02,
“Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”. This ASU amends the current consolidation guidance, specifically the guidance in determining whether or not an entity is a variable interest entity. The Company has various
limited partnerships which are now considered to be Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”). The only impact of this guidance is to add further disclosure around the limited partnerships that now are considered VIEs (note 20). 

Effective January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, “Interest—Simplifying the Presentation
of Debt Issuance Costs”. This ASU changes the presentation of debt issue costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the related debt liability rather than as
an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. This guidance was applied retrospectively. As a result, certain comparative figures were restated. For the comparative period ending December 31, 2015, $5 million of debt
issuance costs formerly held as other assets are classified with long-term senior debt on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. 
 Effective
January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-10, “Technical Corrections and Improvements”. This ASU represents changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of
guidance, or make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice. This guidance was applied prospectively and did not have a material impact to the Company. 

Effective December 15, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2016-17, “Consolidation: Interests Held through
Related Parties that are under Common Control”. This ASU represents changes to the evaluation of whether a reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. This guidance was applied retrospectively and did not have a material impact to
the Company. 
 Effective December 15, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2016-19, “Technical Corrections
and Improvements”. This ASU contains amendments that affect a wide variety of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, intended to clarify or correct unintended application of the guidance. Most of the amendments noted in the
guidance are effective immediately and do not require transition guidance. This guidance was applied retrospectively and did not have a material impact to the Company. 

Future accounting policy changes 
 In May 2014, the FASB
issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. This ASU provides guidance for changes in criteria for revenue recognition from contracts with customers. Additionally, in April
2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” which provides guidance on identifying performance obligations and
licensing. Further in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” which provides guidance to address
certain issues assessing collectibility, presentation of sales taxes, non cash consideration and completed contracts and contract modifications at transition. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14,
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers—Deferral of the effective date”. This ASU defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Revenues from Contracts with Customers under Topic 606” which provides amendments to clarify and correct unintended application of the guidance.
All guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard. 

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-017, “Income
Taxes: Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. This ASU changes the classification of deferred tax liabilities and assets. Under the ASU, an entity classifies deferred tax liabilities and assets as
non-current in the statement of financial position. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is to be applied on a retrospective or prospective
basis. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material impact. 

  
 10 

 In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial
Instruments—Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities”. This ASU addresses certain aspects of the guidance regarding recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments,
specifically the guidance for measuring the fair value of equity investments. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the
Statement of Financial Position as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption, with amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values to be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the standard to have a
material impact. 
 In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”. This ASU addresses the
recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure in the financial statements of the assets and liabilities related to operating leases. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard. 
 In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07,
“Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting”. This ASU eliminates the requirement for an investor to adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained
earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held, in the event
that an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and is
to be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material impact. 
 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current guidance with a
methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2019. Entities must apply the guidance through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (a modified-retrospective approach). The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard. 
 In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,
“Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. This ASU is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. This guidance is
effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively from the earliest date practicable if retrospective application
would be impracticable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard. 
 In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash”. This ASU is intended to reduce diversity that exists in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of
cash flows under Topic 230. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities should apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact
of the standard. 

  
 11 

 In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business
Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. This ASU is intended to clarify the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or
businesses. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities should apply the guidance prospectively on or after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the
standard. 
 Cash and Short-Term Investments 
 Cash and
short-term investments comprise cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less and carrying values which approximate market value. A portion of these short-term investments are held in trust accounts, the majority of
which are permitted to be used for operating, capital expenditure and working capital purposes. 
 Discontinued Operations / Assets Held for Sale

 Components of the Company’s business that have been sold, or are in the formal process of being sold, and represents a major line of business or
business segment have been classified as assets held for sale on the consolidated statements of financial position and as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of income and loss. Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of the
their carrying amount and estimated fair value less costs to sell. The determination of fair value may be based on discontinued future cash flows or, when available, purchase price offers. 

Investments in Jointly-Controlled Businesses 
 Investments
over which the Company exercises significant influence, but does not have controlling financial interests, are accounted for using the equity method. Equity investments are initially measured at cost and are adjusted for the Company’s
proportionates share of undistributed equity earnings or loss. Equity investments are increased for contributions made to and decreased for distributions received from the investees. 

Pipeline, Plant and Other Capital Assets 
  

					
	 Fixed asset category
	  	 Measurement
	  	 Depreciation policy and rates (per annum)

			
	Pipeline	  	Cost	  	Straight-line basis with a rate of 4%
			
	Power facilities	  	Cost	  	Straight-line basis over the life of the asset with rates ranging from 3% to 33%
			
	Administrative	  	Cost	  	Straight-line basis over the life of the asset or the term of the lease, where applicable, with rates ranging from 20% to 33%
			
	Land	  	Cost	  	Not depreciated

 Expenditures that increase or prolong the service life or capacity of an asset are capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs
are expensed as incurred. Construction work in progress, which includes capitalized interest, will be reclassified to pipeline, plant and power facilities and depreciated over the estimated useful life upon commencement of operations. 

Intangible Assets 
 Intangible assets predominantly
consist of ethane transportation agreements (“ETAs”), computer software, and the non-cash acquisition of a controlling interest in Pacific Connector (note 9). Intangible assets are amortized on a
straight-line basis over their respective useful lives ranging from 3 to 14 years, with the exception of the intangible assets relating to Pacific Connector which is a project that has not commenced its principal planned activities. 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Investments in Jointly-Controlled Businesses and Investments Held at Cost 

The Company evaluates, at least annually, the long-lived assets such as pipeline, plant and other capital assets and intangible assets, the investments in
jointly-controlled businesses and investments held at cost for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. 

  
 12 

 When such a determination is made for long-lived assets, management’s estimate of the sum of undiscounted
future cash flows attributable to the assets is compared to the carrying value of the assets to determine whether the recoverability of the carrying value has been impaired. If the carrying value exceeds the sum of undiscounted cash flows, the
carrying value of the assets is deemed to be impaired. The amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment loss. 

When such a determination is made for investments in jointly-controlled businesses and investments held at cost, management’s estimate of the sum of
discounted cash flows attributable to the investments is compared to the carrying value of the investments. If the carrying value exceeds the sum of discounted cash flows, the carrying value of the investments is deemed to be impaired. The amount by
which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment loss. 
 Judgments and assumptions are inherent in
management’s estimate of both the undiscounted and discounted future cash flows used to determine recoverability of an asset and the estimate of an asset’s fair value used to calculate the amount of any impairment. 

Asset Retirement Obligations 
 The estimated fair value of
asset retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets are recognized in the period in which they are incurred if a reasonable estimate of a fair value can be determined. The asset retirement obligation is capitalized as part of the
cost of the related long-lived assets and is amortized over the remaining life of the assets. 
 For some of the Company’s assets, including those held
by the Company’s jointly-controlled businesses, it is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of ARO due to the indeterminate timing and scope of the asset retirements. 

Revenue Recognition 
 AEGS transportation revenue is based
on toll charges and operating cost recoveries, including maintenance capital, as provided for under the ETAs. Revenue is recognized at each receipt point and is subject to minimum
take-or-pay arrangements. 
 Hythe/Steeprock revenue is based on providing
minimum volume capacity over an agreed upon period, and is recognized at the later of when committed volume capacity was provided under the agreement or when the counterparty’s ability to apply deficiency volume credit had expired. Subsequent
to the March 31, 2015 sale of Hythe/Steeprock to Veresen Midstream (note 5), Hythe/Steeprock revenues are recognized through the Company’s equity income from Veresen Midstream. 

Revenue relating to the Company’s discontinued operations is derived from the sale of energy in the form of electricity, steam, hot water and chilled
water, and is recognized on the accrual basis upon delivery at rates pursuant to the relevant agreements. In addition, the Company’s gas-fired generation power facilities receive fixed capacity payments
that are not dependent upon the amount of energy delivered to customers. This revenue is recognized as earned on a monthly basis. 

  
 13 

 Rate-Regulated Accounting 

The Company has rate-regulated businesses, including Alliance which uses rate-regulated accounting for certain expenditures as approved by the National Energy
Board (“NEB”). 
 Project Development Costs 

The Company expenses project development costs as incurred. Project development costs are only capitalized when, in management’s judgment, certain
commercial and regulatory criteria have been met, which make it probable that such costs will be recoverable from a project’s future revenues. 

Capitalized Interest 
 The Company capitalizes interest
costs which are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets. 
 Foreign Currency Translation 

The functional currency of the Company and its Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. The Company’s foreign operations are self-sustaining and are
translated using the current rate method. Under this method all assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, and all revenues and expenses are translated into Canadian
dollars at average exchange rates during the year. The resulting net cumulative translation gain or loss is deferred and reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income. A portion of such deferred translation gain or loss is
recognized in net income when such a foreign subsidiary is disposed of or liquidated. 
 Long-term Incentive Compensation 

The Company has a long-term employee incentive plan (“LTIP”) and a deferred share unit plan (“DSU”). Under each plan, notional common
shares are granted to eligible employees. The notional shares are payable in cash at the date of vesting when certain conditions are met, including the employee’s continued employment during a specified period. Certain amounts payable under the
LTIP are further dependent upon the achievement of specified performance targets. Expenses related to the various LTIPs and DSU plan are accounted for on an accrual basis. 

Financial Instruments 
 Financial assets and financial
liabilities are classified as held-for-trading, available-for-sale or at amortized cost.
Financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. Subsequent measurement of each financial instrument is based on its classification. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company did not have held-to-maturity instruments or instruments in qualifying hedging relationships. 

Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured
at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. 

Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with changes in
fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. 
 The investment in Ruby is recorded at cost. 

Income Tax 
 The Company uses the liability method of
accounting for income taxes. Under this method, current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes payable in respect of the current year, which includes an accrual for interest and penalties, if any. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax and accounting asset and liability bases using enacted tax rates and laws expected to apply when the liabilities are settled and the assets realized. Deferred tax assets are
recognized in circumstances where it is considered more likely than not the related income tax benefits will be realized. 

  
 14 

 When appropriate, the Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to reflect that these tax
assets may not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is appropriate, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of its deferred tax assets will not be realized, based on management’s
judgments using available evidence about future events. 
 At times, the Company may claim tax benefits that may be challenged by a tax authority. The
Company recognizes tax benefits only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood to be
realized upon settlement. A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. 

Share Issuance Costs 
 Costs directly attributable to the
raising of equity are charged against the related share capital. 
  

	4.	Disposals and Assets Held for Sale 

 Assets Held for Sale 

On August 3, 2016, the Company announced it was pursuing the sale of its power generation business. On November 16, 2016, after receipt of initial
bids, the Company’s management formally approved the sale process. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the power generation business were classified as held for sale on the consolidated statement of financial position as at
December 31, 2016 and the results of operations have been presented as discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income and loss, with comparatives. 

On February 21, 2017, the Company announced it had reached agreement with three unrelated third parties to sell its power generation facilities for
$1.18 billion, including project level financing. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the facilities have been classified as held for sale on the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2016 and the results
of operations have been presented as discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income, with comparatives. The assets and liabilities held for sale were remeasured to reflect our assessment of fair value as a result of the sale, which
resulted in an additional depreciation charge of $26 million to the Company’s district energy assets. 
 On August 1, 2016, the Company
closed the sale of its 33 megawatt Glen Park run-of-river hydro power generation facility to an unrelated third party for proceeds of $81 million which approximated
the carrying value of the assets sold. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the facilities were classified as held for sale on the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2015 and the results of operations have
been presented as discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income and loss. 
 On January 8, 2015, the Company closed the transaction
with an unrelated third party to dispose of its power facilities located in California and Colorado in the Unites States for proceeds of approximately US$27 million ($34 million) plus working capital. Results of operations have been included
with discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2015.

	5.	Veresen Midstream Transaction 

 On December 22, 2014, a new entity, Veresen Midstream L.P.
(“Veresen Midstream”) was formed, which is jointly-controlled by the Company and affiliates of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co L.P. (“KKR”), a global investment firm. On March 31, 2015, the Company funded its interest
in Veresen Midstream by contributing its Hythe/Steeprock gathering and processing assets valued at $920 million, and in exchange received from Veresen Midstream $420 

  
 16 

 
million in cash, resulting in a 50% equity position valued at $500 million. As at March 31, 2015, the net book value of the Hythe/Steeprock assets contributed was $839 million,
resulting in a pre-tax gain on sale to the Company of $37 million attributable to the monetary portion of the transaction. KKR funded its 50% interest in Veresen Midstream by contributing
$500 million in cash. 
  

					
	 The table below details the net book value of assets and
liabilities contributed to Veresen Midstream:
	 
	 Capital assets
	  	 	619	 
	 Customer relationship and service agreement intangibles
	  	 	238	 
	 Asset retirement obligation
	  	 	(16	) 
	 Deferred revenue
	  	 	(1	) 
	 Other
	  	 	(1	) 
		  	  
	  
	 
		  	 	839	 
		  	  
	  
	 

 All of the Company’s and half of KKR’s Veresen Midstream equity are held in partnership units that are eligible to
receive cash distributions. The remaining half of KKR’s initial equity investment is in the form of payment-in-kind (“PIK”) units which do not receive
cash distributions and instead accrete at a rate equal to the cash yield on the remaining equity plus 4% per year. The PIK units are convertible to cash-paying units after four years at either KKR’s or the Company’s option. Such conversion
of the PIK units will cause dilution in the Company’s ownership interest in Veresen Midstream. As a result of cash distributions paid by Veresen Midstream, the Company’s ownership decreased from 50% as at March 31, 2015 to 47.2% as at
December 31, 2016. The Company and KKR will have equal governance rights in Veresen Midstream so long as either partner’s equity interest remains above 35%.

 Upon acquisition of investments accounted for under the equity method, the Company prepared purchase price allocations of the
purchase price to the assets and liabilities of the underlying investee and adjusts equity method earnings for the amortization of purchase price adjustments allocated to depreciable assets. 

 

	(1)	Current liabilities and non-current liabilities exclude senior debt. 

	(2)	At December 31, 2016, the Company had a $44 million (December 31, 2015 - $48 million) increase in the carrying value of Alliance Canada compared to the underlying equity in the net assets primarily resulting
from the purchase price discrepancy as part of the acquisitions in 1997, 2002, and 2003 resulting in 50% ownership. 

	(3)	At December 31, 2016, the Company had a US$13 million (December 31, 2015 - US$ 14 million) decrease in the carrying value of Alliance U.S. compared to the underlying equity in the net assets primarily
resulting from the purchase price discrepancy as part of the acquisitions in 1997, 2002, and 2003 resulting in 50% ownership. 

	(4)	At December 31, 2016, the Company had a US$26 million (December 31, 2015 - US$ 28 million) decrease in the carrying value of ASLP compared to the underlying equity in the net assets primarily resulting from
the purchase price discrepancy as part of the acquisitions in 1997, 2002, and 2003 resulting in 42.7% ownership. During the year ended December 31, 2015 a $32 million provision was recognized in respect of potential adjustments relating to
customer obligations and a US$3 million provision was recognized related to an alleged violation of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) Clean Air Act. During the year ended December 31, 2016 an
impairment charge of $37 million was recorded against capital previously incurred. 

	(5)	At December 31, 2016, the Company had a $35 million (December 31, 2015 - $42 million) decrease in the carrying value of Veresen Midstream compared to the underlying equity in the net assets primarily resulting
from the unrecognized gain on sale relating to the non-monetary portion of the Veresen Midstream transaction, which, on the date of acquisition, March 31, 2015, resulted in 50% ownership.

	(6)	Assets and liabilities of these investments have been translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and revenues and expenses have been translated into Canadian dollars at
average exchange rates during the period. 

	(7)	On June 16, 2016, the Company reached an agreement with Williams Partners Operating, LLC (“Williams”), the joint owner of PCGP, whereby Williams exchanged its interest in common shares for an interest in
preferred shares. The restructuring of PCGP provided the Company with a controlling interest in PCGP, resulting in the Company consolidating the financial results of PCGP on a prospective basis. The non-cash
transaction was accounted for as a business combination, which gave rise to an intangible asset ($38 million), deferred income tax liability ($15 million) and a non-controlling interest balance ($24 million),
which was subsequently reclassified to paid in capital. Fair values were based on discounted probable future cash flows (note 9). 

	(8)	Includes NRGreen, which is not being sold with the power business and has therefore been retrospectively reclassified with Alliance Canada. 

	(9)	At December 31, 2016, the Company had a $38 million (December 31, 2015 - $41 million) increase in the carrying value of York Energy Centre compared to the underlying equity in the net assets primarily
resulting from the purchase price discrepancy as part of the acquisition in 2010 resulting in 50% ownership. Expenses include unrealized gains or losses on the interest rate hedge (note 16).

 ETAs represent value attributed to AEGS’ intangible assets upon Veresen’s acquisition in December 2004. Under the
ETAs, which expire on December 31, 2018, shippers are committed to pay a minimum firm toll based on 90% of total committed volume, and to reimburse AEGS for all operating costs, including maintenance capital. 

On June 16, 2016 the company reached an agreement with Williams Partners Operating, LLC (“Williams”), the joint owner of PCGP, whereby Williams
exchanged its interest in common shares for an interest in preferred shares. The restructuring of PCGP provided the Company with a controlling interest in PCGP, resulting in the Company consolidating the financial results of PCGP on a prospective
basis. 
 The intangible assets, excluding the controlling interest in PCGP, are amortized on a straight-line basis. For the year ended December 31,
2016, total amortization expense for intangible assets was $3 million (2015 - $3 million). Annual amortization expense for each of the next 5 years is expected to be approximately $3 million.

 Asset Retirement Obligations 

At December 31, 2016, $31 million of the consolidated asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) relates to AEGS (2015- $24 million). This
represents management’s estimate of the cost to abandon the ethane transportation pipeline and the timing of the costs to be incurred. Estimated cash flows were discounted at AEGS’ weighted average credit-adjusted risk free rate of return
of 6.0% (2015 - 6.3%) and an inflation rate of 1.9% (2015 - 2.3%). The total undiscounted amount of future cash flows required to settle the obligation is estimated to be $128 million (2015- $111 million). The estimated ARO costs reflect such
activities as dismantling, demolition and disposal of a portion of the pipeline as well as remediation and restoration of the surface land. Payments to settle the obligation are not expected to occur prior to 2040. 

On March 31, 2015, the Company funded its interest in Veresen Midstream by contributing its Hythe/Steeprock gathering and processing assets, including
its asset retirement obligation (note 5).

 Components of Deferred Taxes 

The provision for deferred taxes arises from temporary differences in the carrying values of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax
purposes and the effect of loss carryforwards. The items comprising the deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: 
  

									
	 	  	2016	 	  	2015	 
	 Deferred tax liabilities (assets)
	  				  			
	 Investments in jointly-controlled businesses
	  	 	407	 	  	 	360	 
	 Pipeline, plant and other capital assets
	  	 	(18	) 	  	 	12	 
	 Non-capital losses
	  	 	(162	) 	  	 	(94	) 
	 Asset retirement obligations
	  	 	(10	) 	  	 	(7	) 
	 Deferred revenue and costs
	  	 	(8	) 	  	 	(17	) 
		  	  
	  
	 	  	  
	  
	 
	 Total net deferred tax liabilities
	  	 	209	 	  	 	254	 
		  	  
	  
	 	  	  
	  
	 

 The above deferred tax balances at December 31, 2016 and 2015 are net of valuation allowances of $16 million and
$12 million, respectively. 
 Tax Reconciliation 

The provision for taxes differs from the result that would be obtained by applying the combined Canadian federal and provincial statutory income tax rate to
net income before tax and non-controlling interest. The difference results from a number of factors summarized in the following reconciliation:

 The Company has Canadian and U.S. non-capital losses of $206 million (2015 - $104
million) and $266 million (2015 - $168 million), respectively. Canadian losses expire beginning in 2035. U.S. losses will expire in varying amounts from 2029 to 2031. 

The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits as the recognition and measurement criterion has been met and it is more likely than not that the Company will
realize its tax positions. 

  
 24 

 The Company is subject to Canadian federal and provincial income tax, U.S. federal and state income tax, and
other foreign federal taxes. All Canadian federal and provincial income tax returns are subject to examination by the taxation authorities. All U.S. federal income tax returns and generally all U.S. state income tax returns for 2012 and subsequent
years continue to remain subject to examination by the taxation authorities, in addition to years relating to non-operating losses are subject to examination.

 On April 1, 2015, the Company issued 8 million Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, Series E (“Series E
Preferred Shares”) at a price of $25 per Series E Preferred Share, generating $194 million of cash proceeds net of $6 million of issue costs. Holders of Series E Preferred Shares have the right to convert all or any part of their
shares into Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, Series F (“Series F Preferred Shares”) subject to certain conditions, on June 30, 2020 and on June 30 of every fifth year thereafter. The holders of Series F Preferred Shares
are entitled to receive quarterly floating rate cumulative dividends at a rate equal to the sum of the then 90-day Government of Canada treasury bill rate plus 4.27%. 

15. Commitments and Contingencies 
 Veresen has operating
leases for office premises and vehicles. Included in general and administrative expense are lease expenses of $5 million (2015 - $4 million). Expected future minimum lease payments under the operating leases are as follows:

	(1)	Total rental payments to be received in future periods under non-cancelable subleases are $1 million. 

Veresen currently has commitments totaling $3 million related to the construction of the Burstall ethane storage facility. 

On April 15, 2015, Aux Sable received a Notice and Finding of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) for
exceedances of permitted limits for Volatile Organic Compounds at Aux Sable’s Channahon, Illinois Facility. Aux Sable is engaged in discussions with the EPA to resolve the matter. The initial EPA proposal confirms the settlement will not be
material to earnings. 
 On March 30, 2012, a Statement of Claim was filed against the Company’s equity-accounted investees, Aux Sable Liquid
Products, L.P., Aux Sable Canada L.P., Aux Sable Extraction LP and Aux Sable Canada Ltd., claiming various relief including damages of US$13 million, relating to differences in interpretation of certain terms

  
 26 

 
of the NGL Sales Agreement. On October 14, 2016 an Amended Statement of Claim was filed disputing the application by Aux Sable of certain additional elements of the NGL Sales Agreement and
increasing the damages claim to US$150 million. Aux Sable filed a Statement of Defence on January 5, 2017 and BP filed a corresponding Reply on January 31, 2017. The 42.7% calculations reflect the Company’s interest in Aux Sable.
Aux Sable will fully defend its position in this matter and at this time is unable to predict the likely outcome. Management believes the amount of estimated loss accrued in the financial statements is consistent with requirements under
US GAAP. It is reasonably possible that amounts accrued in relation to the matter may change in the future.

 Fair Values 
 Fair value
is the amount of consideration that would be agreed upon in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties who are under no compulsion to act. 

The fair values of financial instruments included in cash and short-term investments, restricted cash, distributions receivable, receivables and accrued
receivables, due from jointly-controlled businesses, other assets, payables, interest payable, accrued payables, dividends payable, and other long-term liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the nature of the item and/or the short
time to maturity. The fair value of the investment held at cost is based on a number of factors, including the present value of anticipated distributable cash flows to be produced from the underlying operations of the Ruby investment. Assessing
these cash flows required the use of assumptions related to the future demand for Ruby’s operations, forecasted commodity prices and interest rates, anticipated economic conditions, timing of conversion of the preferred interest into a common
equity interest, and other inputs, many of which are not available as observable market data. The fair values of senior debt are calculated by discounting future cash flows using discount rates estimated based on government bond rates plus expected
spreads for similarly-rated instruments with comparable risk profiles. 
 The carrying value of investments held at cost are accounted for under the cost
method. As part of the Company’s impairment review, the Company performs a fair value assessment of the Company’s investments held at cost on an annual basis using the most currently available information. 

US GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between fair values developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the
reporting entity, and fair values developed using the reporting entity’s own assumptions based on the best information available in the circumstances. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are: 

Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 

Level 2: Inputs are other than the quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly. 
 Level 3: Inputs are not based on observable market data. 

Veresen has categorized senior debt as Level 2. At December 31, 2016 senior debt had a carrying value of $1,207 million (December 31, 2015
– $924 million) and fair value of $1,236 million (December 31, 2015 – $948 million). The investment held at cost is categorized as Level 3. At December 31, 2016 the investment held at cost had a carrying value of
$1,818 million (December 31, 2015 - $1,981 million) and a fair value of $1,818 million (December 31, 2015—$2,010 million). The investment held at cost is denominated in US dollars and fluctuations in exchange rates will
result in changes to its carrying value. As a result of the Company’s annual impairment review, the investment in Ruby was remeasured which resulted in the recognition of a $103 million (US$77 million) impairment charge in the fourth
quarter of 2016. The key operational assumptions underpinning the Ruby future cash flows are the expected timing of future incremental pipeline throughput volumes and the expected future toll rates. The Company uses discounted cash flow analysis to
determine fair value and probability weights various forecasted cash flow scenarios as it considers the possible outcomes. We used a discount factor of 7%.

 Currency Risk 
 From time
to time, the Company has utilized U.S.-denominated debt to hedge a portion of the net investment in its self-sustaining U.S. operations. To the extent these hedges were deemed to be effective, any such gains or losses were recorded in other
comprehensive income. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no net investment hedges. 
 On December 31,
2016, approximately 57% of the Company’s total assets were denominated in U.S. dollars (2015 - 61%). 
 Cross Currency Swaps 

As at December 31, 2016, Veresen Midstream, a jointly-controlled business, had two cross currency swaps (“Swaps”). These Swaps were entered
into to manage the exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign exchange whereby Veresen Midstream receives variable interest rates denominated in US dollars and pays fixed interest rates denominated in Canadian dollars. The first Swap,
obtained on March 31, 2015, had an initial notional amount of US$575 million which declines over the 4-year swap facility, ending March 31, 2019. On May 28, 2015, the Swap was amended as a
result of the re-pricing of Veresen Midstream’s US dollar denominated Term Loan, to reflect the reduction of 75 basis points. The second Swap, obtained on September 6, 2016, had an initial notional
amount of US$150 million which declines over the remaining term of the swap facility, ending March 31, 2019. Future changes in interest rates and exchange rates will affect the fair value of the Swap, impacting the amount of unrealized
gains or losses included in equity income from jointly-controlled businesses recognized in the period. On February 17, 2017, Veresen Midstream successfully re-priced its US denominated Term Loan B,
resulting in a reduction of 75 basis points. The transaction is scheduled to close in March 2017. 
 The following is a summary of the cross currency swap
in place as at December 31, 2016:

	(1)	Veresen’s interest in Veresen Midstream varies for items recognized within the consolidated statement of financial position and the consolidated statement of income. For the purposes of recognizing items in the
consolidated statement of financial position, Veresen’s ownership interest is based on Veresen’s holdings on a fully diluted basis, as at the date of the statement of financial position. As at December 31, 2016, this ownership
interest is 47.2%. For the purposes of recognizing items in the consolidated statement of income, Veresen’s ownership interest is based on the weighted average of Veresen’s holdings on a fully diluted basis during the financial statement
period. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 this ownership interest is 47.4% and 47.9%, respectively.

 The fair values approximate the amount that Veresen Midstream would have either paid or received to settle the
contract, and are included in the Company’s investment in Veresen Midstream. 
 Interest Rate Hedges 

Veresen and its jointly-controlled businesses periodically enter into interest rate hedges to manage interest rate exposures. As at December 31, 2016,
York Energy Centre and Grand Valley, all being jointly-controlled businesses within the Company’s discontinued operations, had interest rate hedges. Future changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the hedges, impacting the amount
of unrealized gains or losses included in net income or loss from discontinued operations.

	(1)	Reflects unallocated amounts applicable to Veresen’s head office activities. 

	(2)	The Company holds its ownership interests in multiple business lines through partnerships, which are consolidated into various corporate entities. Consequently, the tax provision is determined on a consolidated basis
and, as such, the Company is not able to present income tax by segment. 

	(3)	After giving effect to intersegment eliminations and allocations to businesses. 

	(4)	Reflects capital expenditures related only to wholly-owned and majority-controlled businesses. 

	(5)	Includes NRGreen, which is not being sold with the power business and has therefore been retrospectively reclassified to the Pipeline segment

	18.	Extraordinary Loss 

 The extraordinary after-tax loss of
$10 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 represents the one-time non-cash net effect of the de-recognition of
Alliance’s regulatory assets and liabilities. 
 As Alliance received regulatory approval from the National Energy Board (“NEB”) and the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to advance its new services offering effective December 1, 2015, it will be exposed to potential variability in certain future costs and throughput volumes. As such, the majority of Alliance’s
operations no longer met all of the criteria required for the continued application of rate regulated accounting under US GAAP, thereby requiring the de-recognition of its regulatory balances as at
December 31, 2015. Certain expenditures in Alliance, as approved by the NEB, will continue to be accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 980 – Regulated Operations.

	20.	Variable Interest Entities 

 As a result of adopting ASU 2015-02,
a number of entities controlled by the Company are now considered to be VIEs. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it has a variable interest and for which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. VIEs in which the Company has a variable
interest but is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for as equity investments. 

  
 33 

 Consolidated VIEs 

Under the new consolidation standard, a certain number of the Company’s wholly-owned and controlled limited partnerships will continue to be consolidated,
but are now deemed to be VIEs. For these limited partnerships, the Company has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits. On an
aggregate basis, as at December 31, 2016 these VIEs have total assets of $168 million (December 31, 2015 - $177 million) and total liabilities of $117 million (December 31, 2015 - $109 million), of which $77 million
(December 31, 2015 - $81 million) relates to non-recourse debt. The assets of these VIEs must first be used for the settlement of the VIEs’ obligations.

 Non-consolidated VIEs 

The company’s non-consolidated VIE consist of one legal entity, Veresen Midstream, where the Company does not have
the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of this VIE. The Company is not the primary beneficiary and, consequently, this entity is accounted for as an equity investment (note 6). The maximum exposure to
loss as a result of the Company’s involvement with this VIE is limited to the carrying value of the investment (note 6). None of the Company’s other jointly-controlled businesses are classified as VIEs. 

 

	21.	Due from jointly-controlled businesses 

 Due from jointly-controlled businesses is primarily composed of
a term loan with the Company. On July 29, 2016, Grand Valley, a jointly-controlled business refinanced its long-term debt, obtaining a term loan from a third party which was used to repay its existing term loan with the Company.

	22.	Subsequent Events 

 On February 21, 2017, the Company announced it had reached agreement with three
unrelated third parties to sell its power generation facilities for $1.18 billion, including project level financing. Closing is expected to occur during the second quarter of 2017 subject to the receipt of all necessary approvals. 

Dividends 
 On February 17, 2017, the Company
declared a quarterly dividend of $0.275 per share for the period ending March 31, 2017 in respect of the Series A Preferred Shares, payable on March 31, 2017 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2017. 

On February 17, 2017, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.3125 per share for the period ending March 31, 2017 in respect of the Series C
Preferred Shares, payable on March 31, 2017 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2017. 
 On February 17, 2017, the Company declared a
quarterly dividend of $0.3125 per share for the period ending March 31, 2017 in respect of the Series E Preferred Shares, payable on March 31, 2017 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2017. 

On January 20, 2017 and February 23, 2017, the Company declared dividends of $0.0833 per Common Share for each of January and February 2017,
respectively. These dividends are payable on February 23, 2017 to shareholders of record on January 31, 2017, and March 23, 2017 to shareholders of record on February 28, 2017, respectively.
