Northland Power Inc.

Ontario Superior Court Decision Announced in Global Adjustment Case

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - March 13, 2015) - Northland Power Inc. ("Northland" or "the Company") (TSX: NPI) (TSX: NPI.PR.A) (TSX: NPI.PR.C) (TSX: NPI.DB.B) (TSX: NPI.DB.C) today announced that the Ontario Superior Court of Justice issued a decision on March 12, 2015, in relation to Northland's dispute with the Ontario Electricity Financial Corporation ("OEFC"). As previously disclosed, Northland's wholly-owned subsidiary, Iroquois Falls Power Corp. ("Iroquois Falls") and Northland's managed facilities, Cochrane Power Corporation and Kirkland Lake Power Corporation (collectively, with Iroquois Falls, "the Entities") along with a number of other power producers in Ontario, applied to the Court in relation to the interpretation of their power purchase agreements with the OEFC as it related to the price escalator for power sold under the agreements. The Court ruled in favour of the power producers in its decision.

In its original application, Northland estimated that its potential lost revenue over the life of the relevant agreements was in the range of $200 million. Northland is currently assessing the implication of the decision in relation to possible retroactive recoveries and future payments which may be payable to the Entities. The decision requires OFEC to recalculate the amounts payable under the agreements and is also subject to the OEFC's right to appeal until April 13, 2015.
