For the second quarter of 2008, revenue grew to $54.2 million as compared to $47.8 million in the second quarter of 2007.

Algonquin Power Income Fund Enters Into Agreement to Issue $27.0 Million Trust Units

Oakville, Ontario – Algonquin Power Income Fund (“APIF” or “Algonquin Power”) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary (“Algonquin Acquisition”) proposes to amalgamate (the “Transaction”) with CJIG Acquisition Inc. (“CJIG Subco”) and Highground Capital Corp. (“Highground”). APIF will issue approximately 3.5 million trust units to Algonquin Acquisition, which trust units shall be utilized in part as consideration delivered to Highground shareholders under the Transaction. Subject to certain adjustments, APIF will receive total proceeds, in the form of cash and securities, equal to $27.0 million, representing an effective equity issuance price of approximately $7.69 per trust unit.

By way of background, CJIG Management Inc. has entered into a letter agreement with Highground whereby Highground will recommend and support the Transaction. CJIG Subco is the wholly owned subsidiary of CJIG Management Inc., the manager of Highground. Pursuant to the Transaction, shareholders of Highground will ultimately receive 0.9749 trust units of APIF, representing value of $7.50 for each Highground share (based on the volume weighted average closing price of APIF units for the 20 day trading period ending on May 9, 2008). The Board of Directors of Highground has, upon the recommendation from its Independent Committee and after consultation with its financial and legal advisors, determined that the Transaction is in the best interests of Highground shareholders, has agreed to support the Transaction and recommend that Highground shareholders approve the Transaction.

“The transaction with CJIG Subco represents a cost effective opportunity for APIF to access the capital markets on an attractive basis, without payment by APIF of the typical offering costs or discounts”, commented Ken Moore, Chairman of the Trustees of APIF. “Although a modest sized transaction, this equity issuance will enhance our flexibility to further the attractive growth opportunities APIF is pursuing. In addition, the proposed transaction includes the repatriation of Highground’s investments of approximately $4.8 million in certain existing APIF facilities and adds the interest held by Highground in the 5 MW Twin Falls hydroelectric generating project to APIF’s growing portfolio of renewable energy assets.”

The approximately $21.0 million represented by the cash portion of the proceeds received by APIF under the transaction will be utilized for general corporate purposes including reduction of debt.

Algonquin Power Income Fund Announces First Quarter 2008 Financial Results

Oakville, Ontario – Algonquin Power Income Fund (TSX: APF.UN) (the “Fund” or “Algonquin Power”) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2008.

For the first quarter of 2008, revenue was $48.0 million, as compared to $47.6 million in first quarter of 2007. The increase in revenue as compared to the first quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a combination of higher energy production and increased weighted average energy rates generated in the Renewable Energy division, a combination of changes in production and average energy rates in the Thermal Energy division, and rate increases combined with organic growth at existing facilities in the Utility division. Algonquin reported lower revenue of $3.7 million from its operations in the United States (“U.S.”) as a result of the stronger Canadian dollar.

Net earnings in the first quarter of 2008 were $(1.6) million as compared to $6.9 million in the first quarter of 2007. The decrease in net earnings resulted primarily from additional interest expense due to increased average borrowings, losses on financial instruments resulting from changes in interest and foreign exchange rates, lower earnings on portfolio investments, foreign exchange losses and an increased income tax expense booked in the quarter.

Cash available for distribution in the first quarter of 2008 was $15.9 million or $0.21 per trust unit compared to $15.1 million or $0.20 per trust unit in the first quarter of 2007. During the quarter ended March 31, 2008 cash provided by operating activities totalled $14.7 million or $0.20 per trust unit as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $10.0 million or $0.14 per trust unit during the same period in 2007. The change in cash provided by operating activities in the quarter ended March 31, 2008 is primarily due to increased cash generated by operations and greater cash generated from working capital as compared to the same period in 2007. Cash distributions in the first quarter of 2008 were $0.23 per trust unit, unchanged from the first quarter of 2007.

• Revenue of $48.0 million in Q1 2008 as compared to $47.6 million in Q1 2007.
• Net earnings from continuing operations of $(1.6) million or $(0.02) per trust unit in Q1 2008 as compared to net earnings from continuing operations of $6.9 million or $0.09 per trust unit in Q1 2007.
• Cash available for distribution of $15.9 million or $0.21 per trust unit in Q1 2008 as compared to $15.0 million or $0.20 per trust unit in Q1 2007. Distributions for the first quarter of both 2008 and 2007 were $0.23 per trust unit.

Algonquin Power Income Fund Adopts Unitholder Rights Plan

March 25, 2008

Oakville, Ontario – Algonquin Power Income Fund (the “Fund”) announces that its Trustees have adopted a Unitholder Rights Plan (the “Rights Plan”).

The Rights Plan was adopted by the Trustees on March 20, 2008 and was adopted to ensure the fair treatment of unitholders in connection with any take-over offer for the Fund, and to provide the Trustees and unitholders with additional time to fully consider any unsolicited take-over bid. The Rights Plan will also provide the Trustees more time to pursue, if appropriate, other alternatives to maximize unitholder value.

The Rights Plan is subject to regulatory approval and is subject to approval by unitholders at the Fund’s annual and special meeting of unitholders, which will be held in Toronto on April 24, 2008. If approved by unitholders, the Rights Plan will have an initial term of 3 years.

The Fund is not adopting the Rights Plan in response to any specific proposal to acquire control of the Fund. The Rights Plan is similar to plans adopted by other Canadian companies and income trusts and approved by their shareholders/unitholders.

The Rights Plan is not intended to prevent take-over bids, but to ensure their proper evaluation. Under the Rights Plan, those bids that meet certain requirements intended to protect the interests of all unitholders are deemed to be “Permitted Bids”. Permitted Bids must be made by way of a take-over bid circular prepared in compliance with applicable securities laws and remain open for not less than sixty days.

Under the Rights Plan, Rights have been issued and attached to all units of the Fund issued and outstanding as of the close of business on March 20, 2008. Rights will be issued upon any future issuance of any units of the Fund that occurs prior to the Separation Time (as defined in the Rights Plan).

In the event a take-over bid does not meet the Permitted Bid requirements of the Rights Plan, the Rights will entitle unitholders, other than any unitholder or unitholders making the take-over bid, to purchase additional units in the Fund at a substantial discount to the market value at the time.

March 6, 2008

Oakville, Ontario – Algonquin Power Income Fund (TSX: APF.UN) (the “Fund” or “Algonquin Power”) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2007.

For the fourth quarter of 2007, revenue totalled $44.3 million as compared to $52.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2006.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Fund reported revenue of $186.2 million as compared to $193.2 million in 2006. The decrease in revenue for the year is primarily due to lower than long term average hydrology and lower average energy rates at the Fund’s Windsor Locks facility. The decrease was partially offset by increased energy rates at the Fund’s United States (“U.S.”) hydroelectric facilities, increased energy production in the cogeneration division, strong performance at the St. Leon Wind Energy (“St. Leon”) facility, and increased rates charged at one of the Fund’s waste-water treatment facilities.

Net earnings from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2007 were $8.8 million as compared to net earnings of $3.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2006. Net earnings per trust unit in the fourth quarter of 2007 were $0.12 as compared to net earnings per trust unit of $0.06 in the same period in 2006. The increase in net earnings during the fourth quarter is primarily due to an increased income tax recovery booked in the quarter, partially offset by lower reported earnings from the U.S. operating facilities due to the stronger Canadian dollar. For the year ended December 31, 2007, net earnings from continuing operations totaled $24.8 million as compared to $30.7 million in 2006. The decrease is primarily due to an increased income tax expense booked in the year related to Bill C-52, increased average borrowings over the year, increased amortization expenses, and lower reported earnings from the U.S. operating facilities due to the stronger Canadian dollar.

Cash available for distribution in the fourth quarter of 2007 was $19.9 million or $0.26 per unit as compared to $17.5 million or $0.23 per unit in the fourth quarter of 2006. During the fourth quarter, Algonquin Power Income Fund distributed $0.23 per trust unit, consistent with the amount distributed during the same period in 2006. Cash available for distribution for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $72.3 million or $0.95 per unit as compared to $67.5 million or $0.93 in 2006. During 2007, the Fund distributed $0.92 per unit, consistent with distributions paid in 2006. The increase in cash available for distribution for 2007 is primarily due to one time gains related to the termination fee in connection with the offer for Clean Power Income Fund, cash from discontinued operations, and adjustments related to the Fund’s investment in the St. Leon facility.

“Algonquin Power’s key assets performed successfully in 2007 and the Fund anticipates an exciting year of new growth projects in 2008”, commented Dave Kerr, a senior manager with the Fund. “Algonquin Power’s natural gas cogeneration facilities and 99 MW wind energy facility exceeded Management’s expectations, while lower than average hydrology impacted performance in the hydroelectric division. The Fund’s landfill gas facilities, which were rationalized in December 2007 also impacted the Fund’s performance in 2007. Looking out to 2008, our development group continues to build a strong pipeline of growth projects in all of the Fund’s divisions, while continuing to identify organic growth opportunities within the Fund’s existing portfolio. Algonquin Power remains an innovative, respected and responsible investment opportunity in the clean, renewable power and infrastructure sector, demonstrating stable performance and solid growth opportunities.”
