NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(Dollar amounts in Canadian dollars)


NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AND 2004


1.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accounting policies and methods of application used in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements are in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles consistent with the accounting policies used in the Company's year end audited consolidated financial statements of December 31, 2004, except as set out in note 2.  These consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required for annual financial statements, and therefore these statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, as set out in the 2004 Annual Report.  Certain comparative figures have been restated to conform with the current period presentation.


Quarterly net earnings (loss) from Terasen Gas have been restated to adjust for changes in the method of accounting for quarterly income tax expense. Previously, Terasen Gas’ estimated annual tax expense had been allocated and expensed in the quarterly interim financial statements based on income tax estimated to be collected in rates in each of the four quarters. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2004, Terasen Gas’ income tax expense is determined by applying the effective annual tax rate to the pre-tax income in the quarter.  The change affects income tax expense and net earnings for each of the quarters but has no impact on annual income tax expense and net earnings.


As a result of this change in accounting for income taxes, income tax expense and income and other taxes payable have decreased by $6.1 million for the nine months ended and as at September 30, 2004 as compared to the amounts previously reported.

2.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)

LIABILITIES AND EQUITY

In accordance with recent changes to the CICA Handbook Section 3860 “Financial Instruments – Disclosures and Presentation”, the Company’s $125 million 8% Capital Securities have been reclassified from shareholders’ equity to liabilities because the Capital Securities can be settled by issuing equity at a variable price dependent upon the market value of the Company’s common shares at the settlement date.  As a result of the change, distributions associated with the Capital Securities are now recorded as financing costs and the related income-tax benefits are recorded within income tax expense.  Previously, the distributions were recorded on an after-tax basis as a deduction from net earnings to determine earnings applicable to common shares.  There is no impact to earnings applicable to common shares or earnings per share.  The changes have been applied retroactively and have increased long-term debt and decreased shareholders’ equity, both by $125.0 million, compared to the amounts previously reported as at December 31, 2004.  The restatement has also increased financing costs by $7.5 million, decreased income tax expense by $2.6 million and capital securities distributions by $4.9 million compared to the amounts previously reported for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

b)

EQUITY ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENT IN CLEAN ENERGY

Due to restructuring and amendments to voting arrangements of the Board of Directors of Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (“Clean Energy”) during the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company no longer exercises joint control of Clean Energy.  The Company has, accordingly, changed its method of accounting for its investment in Clean Energy to the equity basis, rather than on the proportionately-consolidated basis.  For the nine months ending September 30, 2005, earnings have been included in equity earnings from Clean Energy as disclosed in note 9.

c)

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

In January 2005, the Company adopted the CICA Handbook Accounting Guideline 15 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”.  The Company has performed a review of the entities with whom it conducts business and determined that under the definitions in the Guideline the Company’s investment in Express US Holdings LP, part of the Express System (the “Express System”), is deemed to be a variable interest entity.  As the Company has not been identified as the primary beneficiary of Express US Holdings LP, the Company continues to account for its investment in the Express System on an equity basis as described in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report. The Company’s future exposure to loss regarding its investment is represented by the carrying value of the investment.


The Express System includes the entities Express Pipeline LP and Express US Holdings LP. The Express System transports crude oil from Hardisty, Alberta, through the Rocky Mountain region of the United States and on to Wood River, Illinois.  The Company has owned a one-third equal interest in the Express System with two other independent partners since January 9, 2003.

3.

FAIRBANKS SEWER & WATER INC.

On July 31, 2004, the Company acquired a 50 per cent interest in Fairbanks Sewer and Water Inc. (“FSW”).  FSW provides water and wastewater treatment and water distribution and wastewater collection services to Fairbanks, Alaska.  The Company paid $40.8 million for its 50 per cent interest after working capital adjustments.  The Company has accounted for the acquisition of FSW using the purchase method and has proportionately consolidated its 50% of operations since the date of acquisition.  FSW is regulated by the Regulatory Commission of Alaska.


The Company and the other owners each have the option to have Terasen acquire the remaining 50 per cent interest in FSW at fair market value in 2009.  


During the nine months ending September 30, 2004, the Company also acquired 100% of two businesses and increased our investment in two other businesses that provide meter reading, meter fleet management and installation services in Canada and the United States. The Company paid $17.1 million for the interest in these businesses after working capital adjustments.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In the first nine months of 2005, 855,200 stock options were granted (2004 – 741,400) at an average exercise price of $29.45 (2004 - $23.88) under the Company’s Share Option Plan.  The Company has applied the fair value based method of accounting for stock options granted after January 1, 2003.  Reported earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 include a compensation charge of $1.6 million (2004 - $0.8 million) representing the fair value of options granted in 2003, 2004 and 2005 amortized over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to contributed surplus.  Had the Company used the fair value based method to account for stock options granted during 2002, pro forma earnings and earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 would have been as follows:

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive stock options outstanding at the beginning of or granted during the period.  The Company's performance-based share options are considered to be contingently issuable shares and have been included in the treasury stock method calculation only if all performance criteria of the options have been satisfied.  The possible exchange of the $125.0 million Capital Securities into common shares has not been included in the treasury stock method calculation, since similar obligations in the past have been paid wholly in cash.

DISPOSAL OF EQUITY INVESTMENT

On October 31, 2005, the Company sold its 40.38% ownership in Clean Energy for proceeds of approximately U.S. $35.9 million.  The sale, together with equity earnings of Clean Energy for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, has resulted in a gain of approximately $2.2 million, including the recognition of all unrealized gas forward contract gains of Clean Energy in 2005 totalling $10.9 million and the recognition of currency translation losses included in Shareholders’ Equity totalling $8.7 million.

10.

PENDING DISPOSITION OF THE COMPANY

On August 1, 2005, the Company announced an agreement with Kinder Morgan, Inc. (“KMI”) for the acquisition by KMI of all of the outstanding shares of the Company.  The transaction is subject to various regulatory approvals.  The transaction is expected to close by the end of November 2005 and would result in the Company becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of KMI pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement.  The Company has recorded approximately $4.0 million of after-tax costs associated with the transaction in earnings for the nine months ending September 30, 2005.  The Company expects to incur additional after-tax costs of approximately $15.0 million prior to the transaction closing date.  The additional costs include an estimated $3.4 million charge for stock compensation expense related to the accelerated vesting of all remaining stock options which will occur under the statutory plan of arrangement.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 5, 2005, the British Columbia Utilities Commission issued a decision that denied recovery of approximately $5.4 million of costs that Terasen Gas Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, incurred to develop the Inland Pacific Connector pipeline project that is planned to bring new gas transmission capacity to the Lower Mainland of British Columbia when economic conditions make the project viable.  Terasen Gas Inc. still believes that the project is viable and intends to keep all existing permits and land right approvals in place that have already been granted.  As Terasen Gas Inc. will be filing an application to have the decision reconsidered, a $3.6 million after tax charge will continue to be deferred until such time as the application has been reconsidered and a decision is received.


On September 27, 2005 the Company approved the redemption of the $35.0 million Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. Series C debentures on November 1, 2005.  The early redemption will cause a premium of approximately $11.0 million before tax, or $7.3 million after-tax, to be paid and expensed at the redemption date.


On October 24, 2005, Terasen Gas Inc. issued $150.0 million of Series 20 Medium Term Note Debentures for net proceeds of $149.7 million at a floating rate of 3.35571% with quarterly rate resets.  The Debentures will mature on October 24, 2007.
