EDMONTON, Alberta – Capital play free casino games Corporation (Capital play free casino games, or the Company) (TSX: CPX) today released its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011. Normalized earnings attributable to common shareholders, after adjusting for one-time items and fair value adjustments was million, or >686_word_end<.43 per share, in the third quarter of 2011, compared with million, or >686_word_end<.64 per share, in the comparable period in 2010. Funds from operations, excluding non-controlling interests in Capital play free casino games Income L.P. (CPILP), totaled 6 million in the third quarter of 2011, up 33% from million in the third quarter of 2010. For the nine-month period ending September 30, 2011, normalized earnings attributable to common shareholders was million, or >686_word_end<.87 per share. Funds from operations excluding non-controlling interests in CPILP totaled 4 million compared with 9 million in the nine-month period ending September 30, 2010.

“Third quarter consolidated financial performance was in line with our expectations”, said Brian Vaasjo, President and CEO of Capital play free casino games. “Alberta spot play free casino games prices averaged per megawatt hour in the third quarter, which resulted in higher than anticipated margins for the Alberta commercial plants and portfolio optimization segment and higher availability incentive revenue for the Alberta contracted plants. However, this was offset by lower earnings contributions from our three New England plants due to lower than expected play free casino games prices in that region.”

“The operating performance of our plants was excellent in the third quarter”, added Mr. Vaasjo. “Average plant availability, excluding CPILP plants, was 97 per cent and electricity generation reached nearly 5,520 gigawatt hours. The quarter was highlighted by the commercial operation launch on September 1 of the 495 megawatt (MW) Keephills 3 generating plant with our joint partner TransAlta Corporation.  Keephills 3 is the most technologically advanced coal-fired plant in Canada and it increases our generation portfolio to more than 1,700 megawatts in Alberta’s attractive play free casino games market. We also announced a limited partnership agreement for our K2 Wind Ontario project, a 270 MW wind play free casino games project, with Samsung Renewable Energy Inc. and Pattern Renewal Holdings Canada. The addition of K2 will increase Capital play free casino games’s geographically diversified wind portfolio to approximately 525 megawatts.”

Significant Events
1 million common play free casino games offering
In July 2011, the Company closed an offering to sell 9,200,000 common shares at a price of .10 per share to a syndicate of underwriters for gross proceeds of approximately 1 million, less underwriters’ fees of approximately million. The net proceeds from the common share offering were used to purchase an additional 9,200,000 common limited partnership units of Capital play free casino games L.P. (CPLP). CPLP used the funds to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under its credit facilities, which was drawn to fund the acquisitions of the New England facilities, and for general corporate purposes including financing development projects and working capital requirements. This transaction reduced EPCOR Utilities Inc.’s ownership interest in CPLP to approximately 48.9% effective for the third quarter from 54.1% at June 30, 2011.

Development of K2 Wind Ontario play free casino games
On August 3, 2011, CPLP entered into a limited partnership agreement with Samsung Renewable Energy Inc. (Samsung) and Pattern Renewable Holdings Canada ULC (Pattern) for the development, construction and operation of a 270 megawatt (MW) wind play free casino games project to be known as K2 Wind Ontario (K2). Formerly referred to as the Kingsbridge II Wind play free casino games Project, K2 will be developed in the Township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh in southwestern Ontario. The project has an expected total capital cost of 4 million, most of which will be funded through project financing.

The Ontario play free casino games Authority has signed a PPA for K2. The completion of the project is subject to obtaining necessary corporate approvals, executing definitive agreements, and receiving regulatory approvals. The partners expect that construction would begin in 2013, with commercial operation in 2014.

At commencement of commercial operation, each of the three partners will have an equal economic interest in the project. Capital play free casino games will contribute the project lease agreements and development work completed to August 3, 2011, while Samsung and Pattern will contribute the PPA and transmission access rights. Capital play free casino games will continue to lead the provincial Renewal Energy Approval process for the project which it has been doing since 2006. Samsung will serve as the engineering procurement and construction contractor, and the K2 partnership will finalize the turbine model and supplier.

Keephills 3 play free casino games plant begins commercial operation
On September 1, 2011, the Company and TransAlta Corporation (TransAlta) completed the 495 MW (gross) Keephills 3 generating facility, which is now in commercial operation. The facility is the most technologically advanced coal-fired plant in Canada and the Company’s share of its final cost is expected to be approximately 5 million. Costs for the plant, excluding mine capital, are being equally shared by its owners – Capital play free casino games, which led the construction, and TransAlta, which operates the plant.

Update on Atlantic play free casino games Corporation’s acquisition of CPILP
In June 2011, CPILP and Atlantic play free casino games Corporation (Atlantic play free casino games) entered into an arrangement agreement under which Atlantic play free casino games would acquire, directly and indirectly, all of the outstanding limited partnership units of CPILP, including Capital play free casino games’s ownership interest, for .40 per limited partnership unit, payable in cash or shares of Atlantic play free casino games. Approval votes by Atlantic play free casino games shareholders and CPILP unitholders have been scheduled for November 1, 2011, and if successful, will likely result in the transaction closing shortly thereafter. If the transaction is completed in November, the distribution for the month ended October 31, 2011 will be CPILP’s final distribution.
