Pembina Pipeline Corporation has announced<\/a>:<\/p>\n

that it does not intend to exercise its right to redeem the currently outstanding Cumulative Redeemable Minimum Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares, Series 25 (“Series 25 Shares”) (TSX: PPL.PF.E) on February 15, 2023. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared quarterly dividends for the Company’s preferred shares, Series 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 15, 17, 19, 21 and 25.<\/p>\n

Series 25 Preferred Share Conversion Right and Reset Dividend Rates
\nAs a result of the decision not to redeem the Series 25 Shares, and subject to certain terms of the Series 25 Shares, the holders of the Series 25 Shares will have the right to elect to convert all or part of their Series 25 Shares on a one-for-one basis into Cumulative Redeemable Floating Rate Class A Preferred Shares, Series 26 of Pembina (“Series 26 Shares”) on February 15, 2023 (the “Conversion Date”). Holders who do not exercise their right to convert their Series 25 Shares into Series 26 Shares will retain their Series 25 Shares.<\/p>\n

As provided in the terms of the Series 25 Shares: (i) if Pembina determines that there would remain outstanding immediately following the conversion less than 1,000,000 Series 25 Shares, then all remaining Series 25 Shares will be automatically converted into Series 26 Shares on a one-for-one basis effective as of the Conversion Date; or (ii) if Pembina determines that there would be less than 1,000,000 Series 26 Shares outstanding immediately following the conversion, no Series 25 Shares will be converted into Series 26 Shares on the Conversion Date. There are currently 10,000,000 Series 25 Shares outstanding.<\/p>\n

With respect to any Series 25 Shares that remain outstanding after the Conversion Date, holders thereof will be entitled to receive quarterly fixed cumulative preferential cash dividends, if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of Pembina. The annual dividend rate for the Series 25 Shares for the five-year period from and including February 15, 2023, to, but excluding, February 15, 2028, will be 6.481 percent, being equal to the five-year Government of Canada bond yield of 2.971 percent determined as of today plus 3.51 percent, in accordance with the terms of the Series 25 Shares.<\/p>\n

With respect to any Series 26 Shares that may be issued on the Conversion Date, holders thereof will be entitled to receive quarterly floating rate cumulative preferential cash dividends, if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of Pembina. The annual dividend rate applicable to the Series 26 Shares for the three-month floating rate period from and including February 15, 2023, to, but excluding, May 15, 2023, will be 7.866 percent, being equal to the annual rate of interest for the most recent auction of 90-day Government of Canada treasury bills of 4.356 percent plus 3.51 percent, in accordance with the terms of the Series 26 Shares (the “Floating Quarterly Dividend Rate”). The Floating Quarterly Dividend Rate will be reset on the 15th day of February, May, August and November in each year.<\/p>\n

Beneficial holders of Series 25 Shares who wish to exercise their right of conversion during the conversion period, which runs from January 16, 2023, until 3:00 pm (MT) \/ 5:00 pm (ET) on January 31, 2023, should communicate as soon as possible with their broker or other intermediary for more information. It is recommended that this be done well in advance of the deadline in order to provide the broker or other intermediary with the time to complete the necessary steps. Any notices received after this deadline will not be valid.<\/p>\n

As announced below, the dividend payable on February 15, 2023, to holders of the Series 25 Shares of record on January 31, 2023, will be $0.3250 per Series 25 Share, consistent with the dividend rate in effect since the issuance of the Series 25 Shares.
