Enbridge Income Fund Approves Pipeline Connection to Tundra Rail Terminal at Cromer, Manitoba

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jan. 29, 2014) - Enbridge Income Fund (the "Fund") (TSX:ENF) has approved the construction of a pipeline interconnection between the Enbridge Pipelines (Saskatchewan) Inc. system and a crude oil rail terminal near Cromer, Manitoba owned by Tundra Energy Marketing Limited (Tundra). The connection is expected to be in service in the fourth quarter of 2014. It will be capable of delivering segregated batches of either light sweet, light sour or Midale crude oil from the Westspur and Bakken Expansion pipelines into Tundra's rail terminal, which is directly served by CN Rail. The rail terminal is currently capable of handling 30,000 barrels per day (bpd) with an ultimate capacity in excess of 60,000 bpd.

The cost of the project is estimated at $25 million and will be fully backstopped by Tundra under a five-year Financial Support Agreement (FSA). Under the terms of the FSA, the Fund has an option to purchase 50 per cent of Tundra's rail terminal at a later time subject to certain terms and conditions.

"This connection is an attractive, low risk investment opportunity for the Fund, and the option to become a partner in the rail terminal provides potential future growth," said Perry Schuldhaus, President of Enbridge Income Fund Holdings Inc. "The interconnection investment complements the Fund's extensive liquids pipeline asset base in Saskatchewan and Manitoba and provides our customers with transportation optionality and enhanced access to premium downstream markets."
