The following is the text of a communication to be sent

in connection with the Merger

by the Human Resources Department to

All Canadian Employees regarding the

Kinder Morgan, Inc. Foreign Subsidiary Employees Stock Purchase Plan

October 19, 2006

Under the terms of the merger agreement in connection with the proposed privatization, effective August 27, 2006, no participant in the Kinder Morgan, Inc. Foreign Subsidiary Employees Stock Purchase Plan (“Foreign ESPP”) may increase the amount of his or her payroll deduction election with respect to contributions to the Foreign ESPP. At the time the merger closes, each participant will receive a refund of his or her payroll deductions contributed during the quarter in which the merger closes.

Example #1:  The merger closes on December 1, 2006.  Each Foreign ESPP participant will receive a refund of his or her Foreign ESPP payroll deductions made to-date during the 4th quarter, 2006.

Example #2:  The merger closes on February 18, 2007.  Each Foreign ESPP participant will receive a refund of his or her Foreign ESPP payroll deductions made to-date during the 1st quarter, 2007. However, Foreign ESPP participants will participate in the 4th quarter 2006 purchase.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, Kinder Morgan shareholders will receive cash for each share of Kinder Morgan stock they hold. With respect to shares you purchased under the Foreign ESPP, there is a capital gain which consists of the amount by which the merger consideration exceeds the fair market value of the shares when they were purchased. This discussion is included for general information purposes only and is not intended to be a complete explanation of all tax consequences of participating in the Foreign ESPP or the effect of the merger. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to you, including the application of federal and provincial tax laws.

Please be aware that the closing dates in the examples above are for illustrative purposes only, and are not predictions of when the merger might actually close.

If you have questions and/or need additional information, please contact your H.R. representative.

Important Additional Information Regarding the Merger will be Filed with the SEC.

In connection with the proposed merger, Kinder Morgan, Inc. (the “Company”) has filed a preliminary proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE BECAUSE IT WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE MERGER AND THE PARTIES TO THE MERGER. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the definitive proxy statement (when available) and other relevant documents filed with the SEC from the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

Information about the Company’s directors and executive officers and their ownership of the Company’s common stock is set forth in the proxy statement for the Company’s 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which was filed with the SEC on April 3, 2006. Shareholders and investors may obtain additional information regarding the interests of the Company and its directors and executive officers in the merger, which may be different than those of the Company’s shareholders generally, by reading the definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents regarding the merger, which will be filed with the SEC.
