MD&A and Financial Statements ENBRIDGE INC. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS December 31, 2013 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) dated February 14, 2014 should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Enbridge Inc. (Enbridge or the Company) for the year ended December 31, 2013, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). All financial measures presented in this MD&A are expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Additional information related to the Company, including its Annual Information Form, is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. In connection with the preparation of the Company’s first quarter consolidated financial statements, an error was identified in the manner in which the Company historically recorded deferred regulatory assets associated with the difference between depreciation expense calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and negotiated depreciation rates recovered in transportation tolls for certain of its regulated operations. The error was not material to any of the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements; however, as discussed in Note 4, Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements, to the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2013, prior year comparative financial statements have been revised to correct the effect of this error. This non-cash revision did not impact cash flows for any prior period. The discussion and analysis included herein is based on revised financial results for the year ended December 31, 2013 or other comparative periods as indicated.

For more information on non-GAAP measures see page 7. EARNINGS ATTRIBUTABLE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS Earnings attributable to common shareholders were $446 million ($0.55 per common share) for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared with $602 million ($0.78 per common share) for the year ended December 31, 2012 and $801 million ($1.07 per common share) for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company has delivered significant earnings growth from operations over the course of the last three years, as discussed below in Performance Overview – Adjusted Earnings; however, the positive impact of this growth and the comparability of the Company’s earnings are impacted by a number of unusual, non- recurring or non-operating factors, the most significant of which is changes in unrealized derivative fair value gains or losses. The Company has a comprehensive long-term economic hedging program to 3 mitigate exposures to interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity prices. The changes in unrealized mark-to-market accounting impacts from this program create volatility in short-term earnings but the Company believes over the long-term it supports reliable cash flows and dividend growth. Also impacting the comparability of earnings between fiscal years were certain out-of-period adjustments recognized in 2013, including a non-cash adjustment of $37 million after-tax to defer revenues associated with make-up rights earned under certain long-term take-or-pay contracts within Regional Oil Sands System. Regional Oil Sands System also had an out-of-period adjustment of $31 million after-tax related to the recovery of income taxes under a long-term contract, partially offset by a related correction to deferred income tax expense. In Gas Distribution, the Company recognized an out-of-year adjustment of $56 million after-tax reflecting an increase to gas transportation costs which had incorrectly been deferred. Other significant items impacting the comparability of earnings year-over-year were costs and related insurance recoveries associated with the Line 6B crude oil release. Earnings for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 included EEP’s cost estimates of US$302 million ($44 million after- tax attributable to Enbridge), US$55 million ($8 million after-tax attributable to Enbridge) and US$215 million ($33 million after-tax attributable to Enbridge), respectively.

It was signed into law on April 11, 2007. The statutory mission of the Pipeline Authority is “to diversify and expand the North Dakota economy by facilitating development of pipeline facilities to support the production, transportation, and utilization of North Dakota energy-related commodities, thereby increasing employment, stimulating economic activity, augmenting sources of tax revenue, fostering economic stability and improving the State’s economy”.

By law, the Pipeline Authority membership is comprised of the members of the North Dakota Industrial Commission. Upon the recommendation of the Oil and Gas Research Council, the Industrial Commission authorized the expenditure of up to $325,000 during the 2017-2019 biennium for the Pipeline Authority with funding being made available from the Oil and Gas Research Fund. On August 1, 2008 the Industrial Commission named Justin J. Kringstad, an engineering consultant, to serve as Director of the North Dakota Pipeline Authority. The North Dakota Pipeline Authority Director works closely with Lynn Helms, Department of Mineral Resources Director, Ron Ness, North Dakota Petroleum Council President and Karlene Fine, Industrial Commission Executive Director.

  • Legal Principles Surrounding the New Canadian and American Arctic Energy Debate
    LEGAL PRINCIPLES SURROUNDING THE NEW CANADIAN AND AMERICAN ARCTIC ENERGY DEBATE Alexander J. Black* "The Arctic trails have their secret tales That would make your blood run cold" ' I. INTRODU~~ION Almost a quarter century ago, great plans were made by Canada and the United States to build a natural gas pipeline from Alaska to the contiguous forty-eight states. However, the project stalled and has only been reinvigorated recently. This article identifies some of the unresolved legal issues surrounding the Alaska Highway gas pipeline project and competing proposals concerning connection to Canada's Mackenzie Delta. My underlying theme is security of supply, a concern that has increased in importance following the act of war by terrorists in New York City on September 11, 2001. These legal issues and business proposals should be reconciled quickly in order to ensure security of supply between Canada and the United States. Both countries share strategic mutual interests. Thus, this article presents a synthesis of the legal issues in an attempt to advance the longstanding comity between our countries through informed and timely decision making. Ultimately, a decision has to be made about the 1977 bilateral international agreement, aimed at transporting natural gas from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska through Canada to the contiguous forty-eight states. The original project was called the Foothills (or Alaska Highway) project by Canadians, while Americans often called it the Alaska Natural Gas Transportation System (ANGTS). That acronym, ANGTS, sounds like 'angst', suggesting that some anxiety might exist about the outcome of this complicated project. Indeed this project has caused its share of angst over the past twenty-five years.
