This document includes references to non-GAAP measures as defined in National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial
Measures Disclosure. "Free cash flow" is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company considers free cash flow a key measure in
demonstrating the Company's ability to generate cash flow to fund future growth through capital investment, to repay debt and to pay
returns to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases pursuant to its free cash flow allocation policy. Free cash flow is
defined as adjusted funds flow, less capital and dividends.
