We have audited the accompanying financial statements of PowerStream Inc., which comprise the balance sheet as at December 31, 2015, the statements of income and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2015, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of 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 financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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 financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the 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 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 financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PowerStream Inc. as at December 31, 2015, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 11, 2011 Five Ontario electric utilities to partner on solar initiative Pilot project will measure conservation impact of using solar powered attic vents COLLINGWOOD, ON - Five Ontario electricity distribution companies are getting together to partner on an initiative that will test the effectiveness of using solar powered attic vents in helping to reduce the electricity consumption required to cool homes. The announcement was made today at a project launch event on Davis Street in Collingwood where representatives from Callus Power, PowerStream, Orangevillle Hydro, St Thomas Energy, Wasaga Beach Distribution, other key stakeholders and members of the media witnessed the unveiling, on the roof of a new home, two fully-installed solar powered attic vent units that were provided by the project's supplier, International Solar Solutions. A solar powered attic vent, also referred to as a solar powered roof vent, works during the day and has a solar panel which converts energy from the sun into electricity. This electricity operates a motor that drives a fan inside the vent. Attic ventilation is an important aspect in maintaining a healthy energy-efficient home. Venting cools a roof, extends the life of roof materials and helps to reduce the load on air conditioning systems. Callus Power, PowerStream and Wasaga Beach Distribution will operate the pilot in their respective service territories using a combination of installing solar powered attic vents on new houses being built by Devonleigh Homes and retrofitting houses in older subdivisions.
