Pursuant to the transaction, first announced November 15, ATCO Ltd. transferred
the common shares of ATCO Resources Ltd. to Canadian Utilities Limited in
exchange for, and acquiring ownership of newly issued, 1,059,658 Class A
non-voting shares and 489,171 Class B common shares of Canadian Utilities
Limited at prices per share of $53.15 per Class A non- voting share and $53.52
per Class B common share. Such prices were equal to the weighted average trading
price of the shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the 20 trading days
preceding January 1, 2011.

effect to the transaction, and following completion of the transaction ATCO Ltd.

ownership structure and reduce administrative efforts. ATCO Ltd. has no present
intention to acquire ownership of, or control over, any additional securities of
