<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>NiSource Reports Third Quarter Earnings Results; Reaffirms 2008 Guidance</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>MERRILLVILLE, Ind. </B>- NiSource Inc. (NYSE: NI) today announced net operating earnings of $9.3
million, or 3 cents per share, from continuing operations (non-GAAP) for the three months ended
Sept. 30, 2008, compared to net operating earnings of $18.9&nbsp;million, or 7 cents per share, for the
same period in 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On a GAAP basis, NiSource reported income from continuing operations for the three months ended
Sept. 30, 2008, of $32.6&nbsp;million, or 12 cents per share, compared with $7.9&nbsp;million, or 3 cents per
share, in the same period a year ago. Operating income was $107.9&nbsp;million for the third quarter of
2008, compared with $109.5&nbsp;million in the year-ago period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the quarter, net operating earnings were affected by higher operating expenses largely
related to NiSource&#146;s infrastructure expansion and enhancement strategies, increased electric
generation and non-recoverable purchased power expense, as well as decreased optimization revenues
caused by lower gas market volatility and less liquidity in those short-term markets. These
impacts were partially offset by lower interest expense and income taxes.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;As we have noted on a number of occasions, 2008 represents an important year for NiSource as we
move forward with building a platform for delivering long-term, sustainable earnings growth,&#148;
NiSource President and Chief Executive Officer Robert C. Skaggs, Jr. said. &#147;During the third
quarter, despite challenging and potentially distracting conditions in business and financial
markets, our teams maintained their focus and executed on a number of bellwether
initiatives.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Skaggs noted that, consistent with the company&#146;s expectations, NiSource remains on track to achieve
2008 financial results that are within the lower end of the range of its $1.25 to $1.35 per share
net operating earnings (non-GAAP) outlook.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Skaggs also expressed confidence with respect to the adequacy of NiSource&#146;s liquidity position.
The company recently supplemented its $1.5&nbsp;billion revolving credit facility (which extends into
2011) with a new, six-month $500&nbsp;million credit facility. This facility helps ensure ample
liquidity to accommodate the company&#146;s seasonal cash flow requirements, such as the purchase of
natural gas supplies to meet customer needs as well as to provide for short-term payment
requirements related to the prospective settlement of the Tawney class action lawsuit, discussed later in this release.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;We believe we are well positioned with respect to our liquidity situation,&#148; Skaggs said. &#147;Company
management and our Board of Directors will continue to closely monitor events in the credit
markets, as well as overall economic conditions, to ensure that NiSource&#146;s financial flexibility is
maintained.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Skaggs highlighted a number of recent accomplishments in each of NiSource&#146;s business segments that
demonstrate the company&#146;s continued execution of its business strategy.

    <TD>In October, Columbia Gas of Ohio reached a definitive agreement with regulatory
stakeholders to resolve the company&#146;s comprehensive rate case currently before the Public
Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO). The agreement, which is subject to PUCO approval, is
in line with the company&#146;s financial expectations and incorporates a number of rate design
and energy conservation enhancements. In addition, the agreement sets the stage for
