Canada Energy Partners Distribution of Funds to Shareholders

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Aug. 13, 2014) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Canada Energy Partners Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CE) (the "Company") announces that further to its press release dated August 1, 2014, the Company intends to make a distribution (the "Distribution") of an aggregate of approximately $11,871,019 (subject to adjustment in the event of any share issuances prior to the record date of the distribution) of the net proceeds from the sale of the Company's Montney Shale lands and wells (the "Sale Transaction") as a reduction of capital of the common shares on a pro rata basis to the holders (the "Shareholders") of common shares (the "Shares") of the Company of record at the close of business on August 20, 2014. Each Shareholder of record will receive $0.133 per Share. The Distribution is expected to take place on September 3, 2014.

Since the Distribution of $0.133 per Share will exceed 25% of the market value of the Shares, the TSX Venture Exchange requires the implementation of its "due bill" trading procedure (an entitlement that will be due to a Shareholder in connection with the completion of a material event) in respect of the Distribution commencing from the opening of trading on August 18, 2014 to the close of trading on September 3, 2014. The Shares will commence trading on an ex-Distribution basis (without an attached "due bill" entitlement) effective from the opening of trading on September 4, 2014. Anyone acquiring the Shares up to and including September 3, 2014 will receive the Distribution.

The due bills will be redeemed on September 8, 2014 once all trades with attached due bills entered into up to and including September 3, 2014 have settled.
