Calgary, May 19, 2005 Keyera Facilities Income Fund (TSX:KEY.UN; KEY.DB) announced today a cash distribution for May 2005 of 11.3 cents per unit. The distribution will be payable on June 15, 2005 to unitholders of record on May 31, 2005. The ex-distribution date is May 27, 2005.
The distribution amount of 11.3 cents per unit reflects the 10% cash distribution increase that was announced on May 12, 2005. This is the second distribution increase in 2005 and represents a 24% increase since the Fund began operations in May 2003.
For tax purposes, Keyera expects that 70% of its 2005 distributions will be a return of capital for Canadian residents, with the majority of the remainder being dividend income.
For non-resident unitholders, Keyera’s distributions are subject to withholding tax effective January 1, 2005. As a result of changes to Canadian tax legislation, the total distribution to non-resident unitholders, including both income and return of capital portions, is subject to Canadian withholding tax.
