In the interest of providing Enbridge Income Fund (the Fund) unitholders and potential investors with information about the Fund and its subsidiaries, including management’s assessment of the Fund’s and its subsidiaries’ future plans and operations, certain information provided in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) constitutes forward-looking statements or information (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "anticipate", "expect", "project", “estimate”, “forecast”, “plan”, “intend”, “target”, “believe” and similar words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding an outlook. Although the Fund believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable based on the information available on the date such statements are made, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and readers are cautioned against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. By their nature, these statements involve a variety of assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements.
The Fund’s forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties pertaining to operating performance, regulatory parameters, economic conditions, interest rates and commodity prices, including but not limited to those risks and uncertainties discussed in this MD&A and in the Fund’s other filings with Canadian securities regulators. The impact of any one risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as these are interdependent and the Fund’s future course of action depends on management’s assessment of all information available at the relevant time. Except to the extent required by applicable securities law and regulations, the Fund assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made in this MD&A or otherwise, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, attributable to the Fund or persons acting on the Fund’s behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. |
