Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. and Teekay LNG Partners L.P., respectively, you consolidate them on the basis of controlling them through your 100 percent beneficial ownership of their general partner interests. </I></P>

significant non-wholly owned subsidiaries are consolidated in these financial statements even though Teekay owns less than a 50% ownership interest in the subsidiaries. These significant
subsidiaries include the following publicly traded subsidiaries (collectively, the <I>Public Subsidiaries</I>): Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (or <I>Teekay LNG</I>); Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. (or <I>Teekay Offshore</I>); and Teekay Tankers Ltd. (or
<I>Teekay Tankers</I>). As of December&nbsp;31, 2014, Teekay&#146;s ownership interests in Teekay LNG, Teekay Offshore and Teekay Tankers were [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]%, [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]% and [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]%, respectively.
While Teekay owns less than 50% of each of the Public Subsidiaries, Teekay maintains control of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore by virtue of its 100% ownership interest in the general partners of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore, which are both master
limited partnerships, and maintains control of Teekay Tankers through its ownership of a sufficient number of Class&nbsp;A common shares and Class B common shares, which provide increased voting rights, to maintain a majority voting interest in
Teekay Tankers. Where Teekay&#146;s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary is less than 100%, the non-controlling ownership interests are reported in the Company&#146;s consolidated balance sheets as a separate component of equity. The
non-controlling interest in the Company&#146;s net income (loss) is reported in the Company&#146;s consolidated statements of income (loss) as a deduction from the Company&#146;s net income (loss) to arrive at net income (loss) attributable to
stockholders of Teekay. The amount of non-controlling interest in the Company&#146;s net income (loss) is determined based on the relative ownership interests of the non-controlling interests compared to the controlling interest, with the exception
of the net income (loss) of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore, which is allocated based on the relative rights of the non-controlling interests and the controlling interests of these entities to the amount of net income (loss) of these entities through
cash distributions. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>SEC Comment </I></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Accounting standards codification (or <I>ASC</I>) 810-10-45-20 indicates that &#147;<I>net income or loss and comprehensive income or loss, as described in
Topic 220, shall be attributed to the parent and the noncontrolling interest</I>&#148;. The ASC does not prescribe a specific attribution method that must be used. In determining how to attribute net income or loss and comprehensive income or loss,
we have considered ASC 970-323-35-16 to -17 and applied such guidance by analogy to partnerships that are not real estate ventures, including Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore. In addition, we have considered ASC 260-10-55-103 to &#150;106, which
allocates net income (loss) of &#147;master&#148; limited partnerships between common unit holders, the general partner and the holder of the incentive distribution rights (which entitles the holder to an increasing portion of quarterly cash
distributions as the amount of the quarterly distributions per unit exceed specified thresholds) to determine the partnership&#146;s earnings per unit, and applied such guidance by analogy. Application of both areas of guidance results in the same
conclusion. </P>

(loss), we have concluded that an entity should consider not only the relative ownership percentages of the non-controlling interests compared to the controlling interest, but also other rights of the investors, particularly with respect to the
right to receive dividends and distributions. Teekay&#146;s investments in partially-owned subsidiaries can be divided into the following two categories, based on the rights of the investors: </P>

board of directors of Teekay Offshore&#146;s general partner out of legally available funds for such purpose. The basis for attributing net income (loss) to the non-controlling interests which hold 100% of the preferred units is the amount of

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Distributions per common unit from capital surplus for Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore are allocated 98% to common unit holders
and 2% to the general partner until the common unit holders receive back an amount equal to the initial public offering price, and thereafter all distributions are treated as from operating surplus. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For each quarterly period, our method of attributing net income (loss) of that period to the non-controlling interests of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore
begins by dividing the net income (loss) of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore that is available to be allocated (i.e. after the preferred unit allocation) to the common unit holders and to the general partner of such entities into two components. The
first component consists of the cash distribution that Teekay LNG or Teekay Offshore will declare and pay for that quarterly period (the <I>Distributed Earnings</I>). The second component consists of the difference between the net income (loss) of
Teekay LNG or Teekay Offshore that is available to be allocated to the common unit holders and general partner of such entity and the amount of the first component (the <I>Undistributed Earnings</I>). The portion of the Distributed Earnings that is
allocated to the non-controlling interest is the amount of the cash distribution that Teekay LNG or Teekay Offshore will declare and pay to the non-controlling interest for that quarterly period. The portion of the Undistributed Earnings that is
allocated to the non-controlling interest is based on the relative ownership percentages of the non-controlling interests of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore compared to the controlling interest. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In terms of the Distributed Earnings, since the portion of the Distributed Earnings that is allocated to the
non-controlling interest is the actual amount of the cash distribution that Teekay LNG or Teekay Offshore will declare and pay to the non-controlling interests for that quarterly period, we believe this method of income allocation is consistent with
the non-controlling interests&#146; rights to income distribution according to the partnership agreements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In terms of the Undistributed Earnings, we
considered whether the general partner would only be entitled to 2% of such amount based on its 2% ownership interest in the partnerships or whether the general partner would be entitled to 2% of Undistributed Earnings plus an additional share of
Undistributed Earnings, pursuant to the general partner being the holder of the IDRs. The amount of quarterly distributions by Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore is limited to Available Cash of such entities. Available Cash generally means all cash on
hand at the end of the quarter less the amount of cash reserves established by the general partner to provide for the proper conduct of the business plus all working capital borrowing made after the end of the quarter. Since Distributed Earnings are
limited by the Available Cash, the general partner would not be entitled to any of the undistributed earnings in excess of its 2% ownership interest in the partnerships. In addition, the general partner does not share in losses in excess of its 2%
ownership interest in the partnerships according to the partnership agreements. Consequently, any undistributed losses in excess of the general partner&#146;s 2% ownership interest in the partnerships would also not be allocated to the general
partner. The only other return that common unit holders are entitled to would be in the event of liquidation. If this were to occur, the allocation of the liquidation distributions between the common unit holders and the general partner would be
based on the relative ownership percentages of the common unit holders and the general partner until such time as the full amount of the initial unit price is returned to each common unit holder. Since the general partner is not entitled to a share
of Undistributed Earnings above its 2% ownership interest and since the liquidation scenario is expected to result in a sharing of returns that reflects the relative ownership percentage of the common unit holders and the general partner, we believe
that the Company&#146;s method of attributing Undistributed Earnings of that period to the non-controlling interests of Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore is appropriate as this method best meets the objective of matching the relative rights to income
distribution to ownership rights and other substantive rights of the non-controlling interest. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A hypothetical example to demonstrate the method described
