NON-GAAP MEASURES

This News Release contains references to the expected EBITDA to be generated by the renewable energy assets. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Management believes that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure as it provides an indication of the renewable energy assets' operating results prior to consideration of how those activities may be financed or how the results may be taxed. This measure has been described in this document to provide shareholders and potential investors with additional information regarding the expected contribution of the renewable energy assets to the Fund's operating results. EBITDA is not a measure that has standardized meaning prescribed by Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and is not considered a GAAP measure. Therefore, this measure may not be comparable with similar measures presented by other issuers.
