FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NOT FOR Distribution TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. ANY FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF U.S. SECURITIES LAW

Calgary, Alberta – AltaLink, L.P. (AltaLink) is committed to providing value for Albertans through the delivery of reliable, cost effective electricity through its transmission system.

AltaLink has agreed to issue $500 million principal amount of 3.668% Series 2013-4 Medium-Term Notes due November 6, 2023 in an agency transaction with a syndicate led by Scotia Capital Inc., RBC Dominion Securities Inc. and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. Each syndicate also includes National Bank Financial Inc., TD Securities Inc., and Casgrain & Company Limited. Distribution of the Medium-Term Notes is scheduled to close on November 4, 2013.

The Medium-Term Notes are secured by a first floating charge security interest in the present and future property and assets of AltaLink. The Medium-Term Notes rank pari passu with all senior, secured indebtedness and have priority over all present and future unsecured indebtedness and all subordinated indebtedness. The net proceeds of the offering will be used to repay outstanding short-term debt and fund the growth and expansion of its electric transmission network in Alberta.

Complete details of the offering are set out in AltaLink’s shelf prospectus as supplemented by pricing supplements, which will be available on the SEDAR website for AltaLink at www.sedar.com.
