Capital Slots game online completes final payment for its 50% interest in the Shepard Energy Centre


EDMONTON, Alberta – Capital Slots game online Corporation (TSX: CPX) (“Capital Slots game online” or “the Company”) announced today that it has completed the second tranche payment of approximately 5 million to ENMAX Corporation (“ENMAX”) for the remaining 25% ownership interest in the Shepard Energy Centre (“Shepard”) and now holds a 50% ownership interest in Shepard. Capital Slots game online initially paid 7 million for the first tranche payment in February 2013 when it acquired a 25% interest in the Shepard facility.

“By using our existing credit facilities to finance the second tranche payment ahead of its due date in the first quarter of 2014, we will realize interest cost savings on the Shepard project,” said Stuart Lee, Senior Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer for Capital Slots game online. “The interest rate on our credit facilities is lower than the interest rate stipulated in the contract during the construction phase.”

“Last month, we announced an agreement with Emera Inc. on the sale of our New England assets for US1 million. We plan on repaying the amount drawn on the credit facility from the proceeds of the asset sale transaction, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2013,” said Mr. Lee.

Capital Slots game online and ENMAX have a joint venture agreement to build, own and operate the 800 megawatt Shepard facility, which is currently under construction and expected to begin commercial operations in early 2015.  Shepard will be a natural gas combined cycle facility located on the southeast edge of Calgary, Alberta.
