This presentation includes certain forward looking information (“FLI”) to provide Enbridge Energy Partners, L.P. (“EEP”) and Enbridge
Energy Management, L.L.C. (“EEQ”) investors and potential investors with information about EEP and EEQ and management’s
assessment of the future plans and operations, which may not be appropriate for other purposes. FLI involves statements that frequently
use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “position,”
“projection,” “should,” “strategy,” “will” and similar words. Although we believe that such forward looking statements are reasonable based
on currently available information, such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are not guarantees of performance.
Future actions, conditions or events and future results of operations may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking
statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results are beyond EEP’s ability to control or predict. Specific factors that could
cause actual results to differ from those in the forward-looking statements include: (1) changes in the demand for or the supply of,
forecast data for and price trends related to crude oil, liquid petroleum, natural gas and NGLs, including the rate of development of the
Alberta Oil Sands; (2) EEP’s ability to successfully complete and finance expansion projects; (3) the effects of competition, in particular,
by other pipeline systems; (4) shut-downs or cutbacks at facilities of EEP or refineries, petrochemical plants, utilities or other businesses
for which EEP transports products or to whom EEP sells products; (5) hazards and operating risks that may not be covered fully by
insurance, including those related to Line 6B and any additional fines and penalties assessed in connection with the crude oil release on
that line; (6) changes in or challenges to EEP’s tariff rates; (7) changes in laws or regulations to which EEP is subject, including
compliance with environmental and operational safety regulations that may increase costs of system integrity testing and maintenance;
and (8) inability of any party to consummate the proposed transaction.
FLI regarding “drop-down” sales opportunities for our ownership in Midcoast Operating, L.P. are further qualified by the fact that Midcoast
Energy Partners, L.P. is under no obligation to buy any of our interests in Midcoast Operating, L.P., and we are under no obligation to sell
any such additional interests. As a result, we do not know when or if any such additional interests will be sold.
Our FLI is also subject to risks and uncertainties pertaining to operating performance, regulatory parameters, project approval and
support, weather, economic conditions, interest rates and commodity prices, including but not limited to those discussed more extensively
in our filings with U.S. securities regulators. The impact of any one risk, uncertainty or factor on any particular FLI is not determinable
with certainty as these are interdependent and our future course of action depends on management’s assessment of all information
available at the relevant time. Any FLI in this presentation is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only of the
date on which it is made. Except to the extent required by law, we assume no obligation to publicly update or revise any FLI, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All FLI in this presentation is expressly qualified in its entirety by these cautionary
statements and by such other factors as discussed in EEP’s and EEQ’s SEC filings, including its most recently filed Annual Report on
Form 10-K and subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
