<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certain statements included in this news release contain information that is forward-looking within the meaning of certain securities laws, including
information and statements regarding prospective results of operations, financial position or cash flows. These statements are based on factors or assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast or projection, including
assumptions based on historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments. Since forward-looking statements relate to future events and conditions, by their very nature they require making assumptions and involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. APUC cautions that although it is believed that the assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances, these risks and uncertainties give rise to the possibility that actual results may differ materially from the expectations set out in
the forward-looking statements. Material risk factors include those set out in the management&#146;s discussion and analysis section of APUC&#146;s most recent annual report, quarterly report, and APUC&#146;s Annual Information Form. Given these
risks, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of their dates. Other than as specifically required by law, APUC undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or information to
reflect new information, subsequent or otherwise. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">SOURCE: Algonquin Power &amp; Utilities Corp. </FONT></P>
