ALTAGAS ANNOUNCES CASH TENDER OFFERS FOR CERTAIN DEBT SECURITIES

CALGARY, AB, Nov. 8, 2024 /CNW/ - AltaGas Ltd. ("AltaGas" or the "Company") (TSX:ALA) announced that it has commenced plans to purchase up to C$800,000,000 (the "Maximum Purchase Amount") in aggregate purchase price, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, of its outstanding series of notes listed in the table below (collectively, the "Notes"), with the Maximum Purchase Amount subject to increase, decrease or waiver by the Company at its sole discretion.

The offer to purchase the notes (the "Offers") is made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated November 8, 2024 (the "Offer to Purchase").

Offer Terms

Unless extended or terminated prior thereto, the Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on November 18, 2024 (the "Expiration Date"). Unless extended or terminated prior thereto, Notes may be withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on November 18, 2024 (the "Withdrawal Date"). Unless extended or terminated prior thereto, settlement for all Notes tendered prior to the Expiration Date will be three business days after the Expiration Date, which is expected to be November 21, 2024 (the "Settlement Date").

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase in the Offers will receive the applicable Total Consideration for each C$1,000 principal amount of such Notes in cash on the Settlement Date. Unless extended or terminated prior thereto, the Company will issue a press release promptly after 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on November 18, 2024 (the "Price Determination Date"), specifying, among other things, the Total Consideration for each series of Notes validly tendered and accepted.

In addition to the applicable Total Consideration, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase by the Company will receive a cash payment equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from and including the immediately preceding interest payment date for such Notes to, but excluding, the Settlement Date (the "Accrued Coupon Payment"). Interest will cease to accrue on the Settlement Date for all Notes accepted in the Offers. Under no circumstances will any interest be payable because of any delay in the transmission of funds to Holders by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. ("CDS") or its participants.

Any Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Offers but not accepted for purchase by the Company will be returned promptly to the tendering Holders thereof.

The Company may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Purchase Amount with or without extending the Withdrawal Date. If Holders tender more Notes in the Offers than they expect to be accepted for purchase based on the Maximum Purchase Amount and the Company subsequently accepts more than such Holders expected of such Notes tendered as a result of an increase of the Maximum Purchase Amount, such Holders may not be able to withdraw any of their previously tendered Notes.

The Offers are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as described in the Offer to Purchase. The Company reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to waive any and all conditions to any Offer. If any of the conditions is not satisfied, the Company is not obligated to accept for payment, purchase or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered Notes, in each event subject to applicable laws, and may terminate or alter any or all of the Offers. The Offers are not conditioned on the tender of any aggregate minimum principal amount of Notes of any series (subject to minimum denomination requirements as set forth in the Offer to Purchase).

The Company has retained TD Securities Inc. ("TD Securities") and National Bank Financial Inc. ("NBF") to act as the dealer managers (the "Dealer Managers") for the Offers. Questions regarding the terms and conditions for the Offers or for copies of the Offer to Purchase should be directed to TD Securities at 1-416-982-2243 or NBF at 1-416-869-8639.

Computershare Investor Services Inc. will act as the Tender Agent for the Offers.

If the Company terminates any Offer with respect to one or more series of Notes, it will give prompt notice to the Tender Agent, and all Notes tendered pursuant to such terminated Offer will be returned promptly to the tendering Holders thereof.

Holders are advised to check with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold Notes as to when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from a beneficial owner in order for that Holder to be able to participate in, or withdraw their instruction to participate in the Offers before the deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and CDS for the submission and withdrawal of tender instructions will also be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase.
