Earnings The Fund reported net earnings of $14.7 million ($0.2385 per Trust Unit) for the three months ended September 30, 2005, consistent with net earnings of $14.7 million ($0.2384 per Trust Unit) for the same period of 2004. For the first three quarters of 2005, net earnings were $45.4 million ($0.7353 per Trust Unit), a 36% increase over net earnings of $33.5 million ($0.5906 per Trust Unit) for the same period of 2004, reflecting a full nine months of finance income in 2005 from the King City Facility acquired in May 2004 and improved equity earnings from the Partnership reflecting the benefits of the upgrade at the Island Facility in 2004. Revenues Total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 were $20.2 million and $60.5 million, respectively, compared to $21.2 million and $48.0 million for the same periods of 2004. Equity earnings from the Partnership for the third quarter of 2005 totaled $13.6 million, compared to the $13.8 million reported in the third quarter 2004. Equity earnings for the first nine months of 2005 increased to $40.4 million from $32.4 million in 2004, primarily resulting from increased power generation at the Island Facility following an upgrade completed in the second quarter of 2004. A detailed discussion of the Partnership's operating results can be found in the Calpine Power L.P. section of this MD&A. Finance income totaled $4.6 million and $14.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to finance income of $5.1 million and $11.7 million for the same periods of 2004. Finance income is generated by the long-term lease of the King City facility and associated land to Calpine King City and commenced upon the acquisition of the facility and land by the Fund in May 2004. The Fund recognizes finance income over the lease term on a basis that provides a constant rate of return on the net investment in the lease with lease and land rental RENTAL. A roll or list of the rents of an estate containing the description of the lands let, the names of the tenants, and other particulars connected with such estate. This is the same as rent roll, from which it is said to be corrupted. payments due, annually, in arrears Adv. 1. in arrears - in debt; "he fell behind with his mortgage payments"; "a month behind in the rent"; "a company that has been run behindhand for years"; "in arrears with their utility bills" behindhand, behind on December 31. Lease payments are payable in both US and Canadian dollars - the US dollar portion being sufficient to service principal and interest payments of the Fund's non-recourse US dollar denominated debt that was used to acquire the facility. Of the $0.5 million decline in finance income in the third quarter 2005 compared to third quarter 2004, $0.3 million is a result of foreign exchange and the remaining $0.2 million is due to principal payments on the Lease made in December 2004. Year-to-date finance income is higher in 2005 compared to 2004, primarily due to the additional four months of finance income included in the 2005 period as the King City assets were acquired May 2004. The King City Facility generated 201,922 MWh and 675,273 MWh for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and operated at 99% and 89% availability for the same periods. Comparatively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 the King City Facility generated 248,120 MWh and 345,600 MWh and operated at 97% and 98% availability. Power generation was lower at the King City Facility for the third quarter 2005 due to a 10 day force majeure [French, A superior or irresistible power.] An event that is a result of the elements of nature, as opposed to one caused by human behavior. The term force majeure outage out·age n. 1. A quantity or portion of something lacking after delivery or storage. 2.

During the outage, the sale of gas that would normally be used to operate the plant offset the electricity revenues not received during this period.

Interest and other income of $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2005 decreased $0.4 million from the prior year quarter, reflecting the impact on interest earned of a lower outstanding loan balance to the Manager as a result of scheduled principal repayments. The loan to the Manager originated in the second quarter of 2004 in conjunction with the acquisition of the King City Facility. Accordingly, interest and other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 of $6.1 million has increased $2.2 million over the prior year reflecting a full nine months of interest earned.

The Fund has repaid $8.0 million of the outstanding Credit Facility balance this year, $7.0 million in the first and second quarter with the balance in the third quarter. This was achieved through cash received in excess of distribution requirements.

Year-to-date tax expenses increased $0.2 million from the same period primarily as a result of the acquisition of the King City Facility part way through the second quarter of 2004. No tax expense was recorded in the first quarter of 2004 as no Fund entities were subject to income tax. No cash taxes are expected to be paid this year in the US due to US tax depreciation on the King City Facility in excess of income from operations.

(1) In 2004 the Island Facility was shut down in second quarter for
capital upgrades.
Earnings Net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2005 of $19.2 million were consistent with the $19.3 million of net earnings reported in the third quarter of 2004. Nine month net earnings $56.9 million in 2005 were $11.5 million higher than net earnings of the comparable period in 2004, due in part to benefits realized from the Island Facility upgrade, increased plant availability and lower operating and maintenance expenses at both the Calgary and Island facilities, offset by an increase in depreciation expense. Current quarter operating and maintenance expenses were up in 2005 mainly due to one time credits on utilities, property tax and insurance costs that are included in the third quarter of 2004. Year-to-date operating expenses Operating expenses The amount paid for asset maintenance or the cost of doing business, excluding depreciation. Earnings are distributed after operating expenses are deducted. are less than the nine months ended September 30, 2004 due to major maintenance expenses of contract labour and overhead that were not incurred in 2005. Operating and maintenance expense primarily includes employee expenses, repairs and maintenance, insurance and property taxes. Revenues Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 were up $0.8 million and $12.0 million from the same periods in 2004. This increase was mainly due to higher power Higher power is a term used in a 12-step program, such as Alcoholics Anonymous, to describe "a power greater than yourself." Although many participants equate their higher power with God, a belief in God or in formal religion is not mandatory; the higher power is intended as a generation at the Island Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The Island Facility operated at 98% availability for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, significantly up from the 80% availability in the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The increased power generation reflects both the increase in capacity of the plant since the upgrade as well as no planned outages occurring in 2005. Interest earned through the participating loan (the "Whitby Whitby, town (1991 pop. 61,281), SE Ont., Canada, NE of Toronto, on Lake Ontario. It has a good harbor. The town's manufactures include tires and electronic equipment. Loan") to a Calpine subsidiary and other cash balances remained largely unchanged from the third quarter 2004. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, the Partnership received $1.1 million and $4.5 million from Calpine Canada Whitby Holdings Company ("CCWHC CCWHC Canadian Cooperative Wildlife Health Centre ") that has been applied to the accrued interest Accrued Interest The interest that has accumulated on a bond since the last interest payment up to but not including the settlement date.

The Partnership received nil and $2.0 million for the same periods in 2004. The amounts received in 2005 represented a $2.5 million distribution of the plant's 2004 earnings plus a further $2.0 million from current year operations.

Revenues Electricity generation revenue was $11.0 million and $33.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $10.9 million and $24.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in year-to-date performance is due to both the increased capacity of the plant from the capital upgrades and no planned outages occurring in 2005. Electricity revenue is net of any heat rate penalty payable to BC Hydro BC Hydro and Power Authority is one of the largest electric utilities in Canada, serving more than 1.7 million customers[2] in an area containing over 94 per cent of British Columbia's population is mandated to provide, "reliable power, at low cost, for generations. pursuant to the terms of the Electricity Purchase Agreement ("EPA EPA eicosapentaenoic acid. EPA abbr. eicosapentaenoic acid EPA, n.pr See acid, eicosapentaenoic. EPA, n. "). A heat rate penalty is payable when the annual heat rate of the Island Facility exceeds the heat rate guaranteed in the EPA and as a result BC Hydro incurs additional costs for gas. The amount of the penalty payable is a function of natural gas prices and the amount that the actual heat rate exceeds the guaranteed heat rate stated in the EPA. Pursuant to an agreement between the Partnership and Calpine, the Island Facility is indemnified by Calpine for annual heat rate penalties incurred over specified amounts. Heat rate penalties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 totaled $1.8 million and $4.8 million compared to $1.7 million and $5.0 million in the same periods of 2004. Included in electricity generation revenue was $1.4 million and $3.8 million of settlement revenue from Alstom Alstom (formerly GEC-Alsthom) (Euronext: ALO) is a large French multinational conglomerate whose businesses are power generation, railway signalling; and manufacturing trains (e.g. the TGV and Eurostar as well as Citadis trams) and the world's largest ships (e.g. for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $1.4 million and $4.2 million for the same periods in 2004. Pursuant to a settlement agreement reached in 2002 (the "Settlement Agreement") with Alstom Canada Inc. ("Alstom") related to performance guarantees set out under the Island Facility Construction Contract, Alstom agreed to pay certain amounts totaling $50.0 million to the Partnership over a ten year period because certain performance targets for the Island Facility were not met. The increased earnings in 2005 over 2004 is a direct result of the plant shutdown in 2004 during which time no settlement revenue was earned as the plant was not operational. At September 30, 2005, the remaining amount due from Alstom under the terms of the Settlement Agreement was $30.0 million (September 30, 2004 - $34.3 million) which will be earned over approximately the next five to seven years, based on the expected operations of the plant during that period. Remaining amounts owing under the Settlement Agreement, if any, will be payable upon termination The point where a line, channel or circuit ends.

As a result of the strengthening Canadian dollar as well as higher natural gas prices, the steam price has increased 21% in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 over the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Price increases in the third quarter of 2005 were offset by lower steam volumes due to less steam offtake Off´take` n. 1. Act of taking off; specif., the taking off or purchase of goods. 2.

Year-to-date steam volumes remain consistent with 2004. Expenses Operating and maintenance expense attributable to the Island Facility was $2.5 million and $7.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $2.0 million and $7.2 million for the same periods in 2004. The $0.5 million increase in operating and maintenance expense for the quarter is due to increased production from the facility. Certain operating and maintenance expenses are paid by the Manager and reimbursed by the Partnership, in accordance with applicable agreements. At September 30, 2005, there was $0.7 million (September 30, 2004 - $0.2 million) due to the Manager from the Partnership in respect of such agreements. Depreciation expense attributable to the Island Facility was $3.1 million and $9.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $3.3 million and $8.9 million for the same periods in 2004.

The Calgary Energy Centre is a natural gas-fired combined cycle plant located in Calgary, Alberta which commenced operations on March 31, 2003. The Calgary Energy Centre has a capacity of 300 MW, consisting of 250 MW of base capacity plus 50 MW of peaking capacity. Revenue is earned through both a fixed and variable charge payable by Calpine Energy Services Canada Partnership ("CESCP"), a wholly-owned partnership of Calpine, under the terms of a long-term Tolling Agreement, where the fixed charge component represents approximately 99% of total revenue and is a function of plant availability. Revenues Electricity revenues at the Calgary Energy Centre were $14.1 million and $41.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $13.5 million and $40.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in availability to 100% in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the 93% availability in the third quarter of 2004 resulted in $0.3 million of the increase in revenues this quarter. The remaining increase is from monthly plant start-up Start-up The earliest stage of a new business venture. charges which are a function of dispatching the plant as well as the annual CPI (1) (Characters Per Inch) The measurement of the density of characters per inch on tape or paper. A printer's CPI button switches character pitch. (2) (Counts Per I adjustment over the prior year. A certain number of startups annually are included in the monthly tolling revenue paid by CESCP; any startups over this amount are an additional charge to CESCP. For the third quarter of 2005, the tolling revenue earned continued to be above net revenue the plant would have earned had it been selling power to the merchant market. CESCP is entitled, under the contract, to dispatch A dispatch or dispatches can refer to:

Prudent and thrifty in management; not wasteful or extravagant. See Synonyms at sparing. 2. Intended to save money, as by efficient operation or elimination of unnecessary features; economic: profitable for the Calgary Energy Centre. This lower capacity factor impacts power generation during the period, but has no financial impact on the Fund as revenue is earned from the Tolling Agreement which is based on availability of the plant. The capacity factor in the third quarter of 2004 was 33%, also due to lower dispatching of the plant typically during the off-peak periods. Expenses Annual operating and maintenance expense attributable to the Calgary Energy Centre was $2.1 million and $6.2 million respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $1.6 million and $7.5 million respectively, for the same periods in 2004. The $0.5 million increase in the current quarter over the same period in 2004 is attributable to one time credits received in the third quarter 2004 on utilities, insurance costs and property taxes. Major maintenance expenses related to the planned outage in the second quarter of 2004 accounts for the year-to-date decrease in operating and maintenance expenses in 2005. There were no major maintenance outages in 2005. Certain operating and maintenance expenses are paid by the Manager and reimbursed by the Partnership, in accordance with applicable agreements. At September 30, 2005 there was $0.2 million (September 30, 2004 - $0.2 million) due to the Manager from the Partnership in respect of such agreements. Depreciation expense attributable to the Calgary Energy Centre was $2.4 million and $7.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $2.2 million and $6.6 million for the same periods in 2004.

The Fund also received payments of $1.1 million and $5.1 million of principal and interest in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 from the Partnership Loan used to fund the Island capital upgrade. The Partnership is committed to use cash flow generated from the improved operations of the Island Facility to service the Partnership Loan. Based on current operational results, the Partnership Loan is expected to be fully repaid by the third quarter in 2007. Cash used in financing activities of the Fund for the third quarter of 2005 totaled $16.2 million, comprised of distributions paid of $15.2 million and $1.0 million used to repay the Credit Facility. For the same period last year, cash used by financing activities related to $15.0 million of distributions paid. Distributions paid by the Fund in the third quarter of 2005 were up 1% from 2004 distributions due to the 1% increase in per Trust Unit distributions announced in January January: see month. of this year. At the end of the third quarter of 2005, no amounts were drawn under the Credit Facility.

The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents $27.9 million at September 30, 2005, up $14.2 million or 104% from the end of 2004. Included in cash and cash equivalents is an unsegregated cash reserve of $15.5 million at September 30, 2005 (September 30, 2004 - $6.6 million) that will be used to fund future maintenance costs of the Partnership. The next major maintenance for the Island Facility is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2006. Major maintenance for the Calgary Energy Centre is dependent on actual operating hours as well as optimal timing to perform the maintenance. As such, the exact timing for the next major maintenance event cannot be determined at this time although it is expected to occur in the first half of 2006. The Partnership generated cash from operations of $14.8 million and $69.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $23.8 million and $60.8 million for the same periods in 2004. The decrease in cash from operations for the third quarter 2005 is mainly due to the annual payment of the heat rate penalty at the Island Facility during the third quarter of 2005 compared to payment in the second quarter of 2004. The increased cash generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was primarily attributable to increased cash from operations at the Island Facility in 2005 compared to 2004 when the Island Facility's upgrade was being implemented. The Partnership used nil and $0.2 million for capital expenditures during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, substantially all associated with the Island Facility. In the same periods last year capital expenditures were nil and $22.7 million. These capital expenditures, largely related to the Island capital upgrade and capital portions of the major maintenance which occurred in the second quarter of 2004. Cash from financing activities of the Partnership for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 include $4.0 million received in January 2005 on the Partnership Loan to finance the balance of capital expenditures associated with the Island Facility upgrade net of $4.5 million in principal repaid during the period on the loan. Future Obligations Both the Fund and Partnership will be required to remove generation facilities at the end of their useful lives and restore the plant sites to their original condition. The estimated future asset retirement obligation Asset Retirement Obligations provide for future disposal of assets as required by SFAS 143 [1]. Firms must recognize the ARO liability in the period it was acquired, generally acquisition. remains unchanged from 2004. The Calgary Energy Centre and the Island Facility are each required to make payments for annual plant maintenance in accordance with applicable LTSA's. Amounts paid in accordance with these agreements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 were $0.3 million and $0.5 million respectively (nil and $0.3 million for the same periods in 2004 respectively) for the Calgary Energy Centre and $0.2 million and $0.6 million ($0.2 million and $0.6 million for the same periods in 2004 respectively) for the Island Facility. Future commitments relating to the LTSA's have a significant variable portion that cannot be reasonably estimated. Currently the variable portion of the Island LTSA LTSA Land Transport Safety Authority (New Zealand) LTSA Learning Technology Systems Architecture LTSA Long Term Service Agreement LTSA Long-Term Space Astrophysics LTSA Labeled Transition System Analyzer LTSA Linearly Tapered Slot Antenna is offset by payments made under the Settlement Agreement with Alstom. As a result, the Island Facility will not be required to make significant cash payments relating to equivalent operating hour ("EOH EOH Environmental & Occupational Health EOH Engineering Open House EOH End of Hole (drill and bore holes) EOH Eye of Horus (gaming clan) EOH Equivalent Operating Hours ") charges under the Island LTSA for approximately five to seven years. Calgary's LTSA payments are due in US dollars and are payable at certain EOH hurdles. The Fund has not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.

The amount of Distributable Cash of the Fund to be distributed monthly to Unitholders is, as defined in the Fund Trust Indenture An agreement declaring the benefits and obligations of two or more parties, often applicable in the context of Bankruptcy and bond trading. The term indenture primarily describes secured contracts and has several applications in U.S. law. , based generally on the amount by which the Fund's cash on hand exceeds: (i) administration expenses of the Fund; (ii) amounts required for the business and operations including fees payable to the Manager under the Administration and Management Agreements; and (iii) any cash reserve which the Trustees or the Manager in its discretion determines is necessary to satisfy the Fund's current and anticipated future obligations. The Fund pays monthly cash distributions to Unitholders on or about the 20th day of each month following the record date, which is the last business day of the preceding month. The following is a summary of recent and expected monthly distribution and future key dates:

December 28, 2005 December 30, 2005 January 20, 2006 $0.0818
Distributable Cash generated by the Fund totaled $15.2 million or $0.2454 per Trust Unit for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $15.0 million or $0.2430 per unit for the same period in 2004. The King City Transaction, which closed in May 2004, has contributed an additional $0.9 million per month in distributable cash since June June: see month. 2004. The Fund, through its indirect 70% ownership of the Partnership, received $0.0798 of Distributable Cash per Class A Priority Unit per month (in addition to a special distribution equal to certain management and administrative expenses incurred directly by the Fund) for the three months ended September 30, 2005, up from $0.079 per month in the same period of 2004. Levelization Reserve In 2004, the Fund established a Distribution Levelization Reserve ("the Levelization Reserve"), the purpose of which is to levelize, over the long-term, the distributions paid by the Fund to Unitholders in respect of the King City acquisition, so as to enable the Fund to provide a level cash stream to the Unitholders. Total undistributed Adj. 1. undistributed - (of investments) not distributed among a variety of securities undiversified - not diversified cash at September 30, 2005 was $13.9 million. The CCT Trustees intend to annually increase or decrease this reserve with long-term consideration given to the expected cash from both the King City Facility and Manager Loan and future distribution requirements to Unitholders. Cash generated by the King City Transaction and other Fund investments is expected to exceed cash distributions anticipated to be paid on the Trust Units until 2014 and, as a result, the Levelization Reserve is expected to increase until that time.

The amount of Distributable Cash, as defined in the Calpine Power, L.P. Partnership Agreement, is to be distributed monthly and is based generally on the amount by which the Partnership's cash on hand exceeds: (i) management and administration expenses of the Partnership; (ii) amounts required for the business and operations of the Partnership and its Facilities (including expenses payable to the Manager under the O&M Agreements); and (iii) any cash reserve which the Trustees or the Manager in its discretion has determined is necessary to satisfy the Partnership's current and anticipated obligations, including an annual reserve for the average estimated major maintenance expenditures. The Partnership distributes Distributable Cash of the Partnership in respect of each month to the partners of record on the last day of each month based on the priority rights of the partnership units. Payments are made on or about the 20th day after each record date. The target distribution per Class A Priority Unit and Class B Subordinated Unit increases annually by 1%. The Partnership makes monthly cash distributions to both the Class A Priority Unitholders and Class B Subordinated Unitholders. The Fund, as the holder of Class A Priority Units in the Partnership, must be paid before the Manager receives distributions on its Class B Subordinated Units. In addition, the Partnership makes a special distribution to the Class A Priority Unitholders, before distributions are made on the Class B Subordinated Units, equivalent to the amount of certain general and administrative expenses of the Fund. The Class B Subordinated Units represent a 30% economic interest in the Island Facility, the Calgary Energy Centre and the Whitby Loan and their entitlement An individual's right to receive a value or benefit provided by law. Commonly recognized entitlements are benefits, such as those provided by Social Security or Workers' Compensation. to distributions is subordinated to that of Class A Priority Unitholders until 2022. Maintenance Reserve The Partnership has established a maintenance reserve, the purpose of which is to substantially fund future maintenance costs. The annual increase/decrease in the maintenance reserve is deducted de·duct v. de·duct·ed, de·duct·ing, de·ducts v.tr. 1. To take away (a quantity) from another; subtract. 2. To derive by deduction; deduce. v.intr. from/added to cash available for distribution. During the three months ended September 30, 2005, $1.8 million (Q3 2004 - $2.8 million) was contributed to the reserve and $0.4 million (Q3 2004 - nil) was withdrawn to fund maintenance costs.

Interest income of $73 thousand (Q3 2004 - $9 thousand) was earned on the maintenance reserve during the third quarter of 2005.

The loan originated in the second quarter of 2004 and no principal payments were made in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. Working Capital Cash used to fund working capital in the third quarter of 2005 is significantly higher than the prior year due to timing of the payment of the Island Heat Rate Penalty in the third quarter of 2005 which was paid in the second quarter of 2004. The Partnership paid, on October October: see month. 20, 2005, a cash distribution of $5.9 million for the period from September 1 to September 30, 2005 to the Class A Priority and Class B Subordinated Unitholders of record on September 30, 2005. The Partnership also declared a cash distribution of $5.9 million for October 2005. TAX TREATMENT OF DISTRIBUTIONS For Canadian tax purposes, the taxable amount of distributions to the Fund's Unitholders was 20% for 2004, up from 1.89% in 2003. The remaining amount of the distributions reduce the adjusted cost base of the Trust Units, thereby providing a tax deferral tax deferral The delay of a tax liability until a future date. For example, an IRA may result in a tax deferral on the amount contributed to the IRA and on any income earned on funds in the IRA until withdrawals are made. for the Unitholders. As a result, in 2004, 80% of the distributions to Unitholders were a return of capital rather than an allocation The apportionment or designation of an item for a specific purpose or to a particular place. In the law of trusts, the allocation of cash dividends earned by a stock that makes up the principal of a trust for a beneficiary usually means that the dividends will be treated as of income. The tax deferral for Canadian tax purposes, arises primarily due to the ability of the Partnership to shelter A general term used in statutes that relates to the provision of food, clothing, and housing for specified individuals; a home with a proper environment that affords protection from the weather. its taxable income Under the federal tax law, gross income reduced by adjustments and allowable deductions. It is the income against which tax rates are applied to compute an individual or entity's tax liability. The essence of taxable income is the accrual of some gain, profit, or benefit to a taxpayer. with capital cost allowance claims on the Facilities and is offset by the taxability tax·a·ble adj. Subject to taxation: taxable income. n. One that is subject to taxation: taxables such as cigarettes and liquor. of annual income generated on the King City Transaction which is taxed as earned with no available deferrals. The Manager anticipates that the taxable amount of distributions in 2005 will continue to be 20%. Thereafter it is anticipated that a higher proportion of cash distributions made by the Fund will be included in the income of the Unitholders for income tax purposes. Further, Fund acquisitions could serve to extend or reduce the tax-deferred tax-de·ferred adj. 1. Of or relating to an investment that is not liable to taxation until income is withdrawn or an appointed date is reached. 2. horizon. The Fund recommends that Unitholders consult their tax advisors A tax advisor is a financial expert especially trained in tax law. Some countries require tax advisors to verify the balance sheets of companies above a certain size. Individuals usually require tax advisors to minimize taxation, to avoid learning the details of tax law in regarding the tax implications of their investment in Trust Units. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES Preparation of both the Fund and Partnership's financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses for the period then ended. For the Fund, amounts recorded for finance income, depreciation and the provision for asset retirement obligations are based on estimates. With respect to the Partnership, amounts recorded for depreciation and the provision for asset retirement obligations are based on estimates. By their nature, these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and changes in these estimates may impact the consolidated financial statements of future periods. OUTLOOK The Fund's main goal continues to be to provide stable and sustainable cash distributions to its Unitholders. Management expects this will be done by its ongoing commitment to operational excellence at its facilities, by enhancing operations to increase cash from operations and by reducing the overall risk profile of our assets by making accretive acquisitions Accretive Acquisition An acquisition that will increase the acquiring company's EPS. Notes: As they are expected to increase the acquiring company's future earnings, these acquisitions tend to be favorable for the company's market price. of high quality assets.

See Synonyms at isolate. 2. the Fund from commodity price risk while allowing the Fund to focus on reducing operating and maintenance expenses, the benefits of which we expect will increase net earnings and cash flow. Remaining capital expenditures for 2005 are expected to be approximately $0.1 million, which will be financed from cash flow from operations Cash flow from operations A firm's net cash inflow resulting directly from its regular operations (disregarding extraordinary items such as the sale of fixed assets or transaction costs associated with issuing securities), calculated as the sum of net income plus noncash expenses . The major maintenance reserve is expected to increase by a further $1.7 million in 2005. Management expects to make cash distributions to our Unitholders of $0.0818 per month per Trust Unit for the remainder of 2005 and anticipates to end the year with a strong balance sheet and cash reserves. BUSINESS RISKS The Fund continues to monitor its business risks including its exposure to contract non-performance, most notably in the collection of both the monthly toll received on the Calgary Energy Centre availability and the repayment Repayment The act of paying back a debt. Notes: Everyone has to repay their debts eventually. See also: Debt, Defeasance, Loan of the Manager Loan from Calpine Corporation. While Calpine's credit rating is below investment grade, the Fund received all payments due in the third quarter of 2005, and from inception of the Fund, from Calpine Corporation on time and in full.

A hot body has more thermal energy than a similar cold body, but a large tub of cold water may have more thermal energy than a cup of boiling from the King City Facility to ensure the facility retains its QF status for 2005. The King City Steam Host has now successfully installed a water distillation water distillation, n a method for extracting essential oils from aromatic plant materials that uses steam to transfer the volatile oils. Because the plant materials are first immersed in water before being heated, some constituents are protected from facility which, when operated, has the ability to take a sufficient amount of thermal energy to ensure the King City Facility retains its QF status. The water distillation facility was completed in the third quarter of 2005.

Changes to income tax legislation arising from this study, if any, could have an impact on unitholder distributions.

3. NET INVESTMENT IN LEASE The Fund acquired the King City Facility in 2004, pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement with BAF BAF British Athletics Federation Energy and leased the facility to Calpine King City for a 20 year term.
