This will allow the company to issue additional common shares from treasury (Common Shares) having an aggregate gross sales price of up to CAN$1.0 billion, for a revised total of CAN$2.0 billion, or its US$ equivalent (Amended ATM Programme), to the public from time to time at the company’s discretion, at the prevailing market price when sold through the Toronto Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or on any other existing trading market for the Common Shares in Canada or the US. The Amended ATM Programme, which is effective to 23 July 2019, will be activated at the company’s discretion if and as required based on the spend profile of TransCanada’s capital programme and relative cost of other funding options.

Sales of Common Shares will be made through ‘at-the-market distributions’ as defined in National Instrument 44-102 – Shelf Distributions on the TSX, the NYSE or on any other existing trading market for the Common Shares in Canada or the US. The Common Shares will be distributed at the prevailing market prices at the time of the sale and, as a result, prices may vary among purchasers and during the period of distribution.
