Cash Distribution Policy
The common units and subordinated units represent limited partner interests in the Partnership. During the period which subordinated units are outstanding (the subordination period), to the extent there is sufficient available cash, the holders of common units are entitled to receive a minimum quarterly distribution (MQD), plus any arrearages on the common units. The holders of subordinated units will have the right to receive the MQD only after the common units have received the MQD plus any arrearages in payment of the MQD. The subordinated units are not entitled to arrearages. Upon expiration of the subordination period, which will generally not occur before June 30, 2004, the subordinated units will convert into common units on a one-for-one basis and will then participate pro rata with the other common units in distributions of available cash.
The holder of the general partner interest is entitled to receive 2 percent of total cash distributions until the MQD has been achieved, at which time it will have the right to receive incentive distributions. Incentive distribution rights represent the right to receive an increasing percentage of quarterly distributions of available cash after the MQD has been achieved.
The Partnership expects to make cash distributions approximately 45 days after the end of each quarter. There is no assurance, however, that the MQD will be made on the common units.
A detailed description of TC PipeLines cash distribution policy is in the May 24, 1999 initial public offering prospectus.
