[4] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS RETAIL parkland operates service stations under three primary business models and various brands which focus on differing customer segments in British columbia, alberta, Saskatchewan, manitoba, ontario, the northwest territories and the yukon. the sites are a mix of company owned and operated, commission operated and dealer sites. our portfolio of brands, fas Gas and race trac, allow us to target different customer segments generally in non-urban areas. parkland has had great success across the west. it is a retail Branded distributor for imperial oil limited with locations in Saskatchewan, alberta, British columbia and ontario operating under the esso brand, and is also a retail Branded distributor for the Sunoco brand in ontario. the retail Business unit serves the motoring public through 630 retail stations in its marketing network, with 14 in the yukon territory, 3 in the northwest territories, 92 in British columbia, 286 in alberta, 131 in Saskatchewan, 22 in manitoba and 82 in ontario. the total number of stations in the network has grown substantially during 2008 primarily as a result of the acquisition of the noco energy fuel marketing business in ontario and the acquisition of additional esso retail branded distributorship sites. this business is performing well in a volatile market environment which featured high and rising fuel prices in the first half of 2008 and then a rapid decline in prices after July. retail margins have remained strong as compared to recent history and our margins on sales to dealers, which are less volatile than retail margins, remain healthy. the three primary business models under which stations are run include: parkland operated or corporate stations, which are managed and staffed by parkland; commission operated stations, which are managed by an independent operator who provides staff in exchange for a commission on fuel volumes sold, is primarily responsible for any ancillary businesses at the site and pays a rent to parkland based on a percentage of other sales revenue generated; and independent dealer sites, which are site owned or controlled by a third party who contracts with parkland for fuel supply for the site. the following table sets out the number of service stations by brand in the parkland network as of december 31, 2008. Parkland operated and commission operated locations Independent dealer operated Total Fas Gas Plus Fas Gas Race Trac Esso Sunoco Total 95 31 126 28 32 60 3 159 162 12 253 265 — 17 17 138 492 630 fuel products sold through the network of service stations include gasoline and diesel fuel as well as propane at selected sites. parkland’s strategy is to increase overall sales volumes and average volumes per site within its current marketing area. the actual number of stations may increase or decrease as new sites are added and under performing sites are closed or sold. the retail fuel business is highly competitive, with margins ultimately dependent on the spread between crude oil, wholesale fuel costs and retail fuel prices. due to its focus on non-urban markets, parkland has limited exposure to the more competitive, larger urban markets where the retail fuel sales are dominated by major oil companies and by more PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [5] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS recent entrants such as grocery chains and large retailers. this non-urban focus means parkland operates in markets where average sales volumes are lower but earnings are enhanced by typically more stable pricing and margins, lower overhead costs and less expensive real estate. parkland will continue to target growth by leveraging its unique brands within its existing network and through the acquisition of new sites. Fas Gas Plus in 2008, parkland’s strategy has been to continue to maximize penetration of its fas Gas plus brand throughout its traditional non-urban markets by investing in the fas Gas plus station upgrade and conversion program. during 2008, parkland expanded its new store design, introduced in lethbridge, alberta in 2007, to another nine locations and has plans to continue to retrofit existing locations as part of its growth capital plan and to incorporate into all new locations. the fas Gas plus brand brings consumers an urban offering to non-urban markets through continuing to invest and upgrade its locations. Short Stop parkland operates its convenience store business under the brand Short Stop food Stores. as at december 31, 2008, there were 42 Short Stop and 29 Short Stop express convenience stores at sites that have fas Gas plus fuel stations with an additional 23 convenience stores under the brand fas Gas plus. these convenience stores offer a variety of food, beverage, snack and convenience products as well as lottery terminals and automated teller machines. many of the stores are open 24 hours per day and, in many of these locations, offer customers the only 24-hour service in the area. Store layouts meet urban standards for quality product offering, lighting, cleanliness, a proprietary coffee program and modern facilities. Esso the retail Branded distributorship agreement provides parkland with the opportunity to offer the esso brand to independent operators or within its company operated network in alberta, Saskatchewan, British columbia and the northwest territories. during the fourth quarter of 2008 the fund entered into agreements to increase the number of accounts in its esso retail branded distributorship business. parkland added 40 dealers in ontario and alberta with an anticipated annual volume of 200 million litres of gasoline and diesel. these sites are now online and contributing for parkland. Race Trac in the independent dealer business, parkland has focused on increasing its brand value to the operators. the race trac brand is positioned for locations where the fas Gas plus or esso brands are not suited and is an important part of parkland’s brand portfolio. Sunoco in 2008, parkland became the retail Branded distributor for the Sunoco brand in ontario as part of its acquisition of noco canada energy assets and has plans to continue to expand the Sunoco brand to independent dealers throughout ontario. [6] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS COMMERCIAL parkland took a significant step forward to improve diversification and reduce seasonality by completing five commercial acquisitions in 2007. these acquisitions allow parkland to offer branded and unbranded bulk fuel, propane, agricultural inputs, lubricants and related products and services to commercial and industrial customers in alberta and British columbia. the commercial customer base is varied and diverse with the fall and winter months generally providing stronger sales and margins. emphasis in this market is on strong customer service and reliability of distribution. the acquired companies are well established in the markets in which they serve and parkland is focused on the integration of these businesses to provide its customers with a more comprehensive service and product offering. parkland has 22 commercial branch locations situated in alberta and British columbia. the newest branches, Whitecourt and conklin, alberta, were opened in 2008. parkland has a diverse commercial customer base operating across a broad cross-section of industries with no single client accounting for more than 5% of consolidated revenue. Because of its customer diversity, as well as the wide geographic scope of parkland’s service offering and the range of segments in which it operates, a downturn in the activities of individual customers or customers in a particular industry is not expected to have a material adverse impact on the operations of parkland. the oilfield exploration outlook is uncertain as drilling programs will get cut back with declining energy prices and capital market constraints. operational oilfield production remains more stable. parkland is a supplier to a number of service providers to the forestry industry. these customers operate across northern alberta and British columbia. the forestry industry is a relatively small portion of the overall portfolio of the commercial segment. parkland also supplies fuels and lubricants to a select group of mines in northern alberta and British columbia. parkland has participated in this market segment for a number of years and regularly monitors and reviews the financial stability of its customers. Fuel and Propane Marketing parkland markets propane and wholesale and commercial fuels and lubricants to residential, commercial and industrial customers in northern alberta, British columbia and the northwest territories. Fertilizer and Other Agricultural Inputs parkland sells fertilizer and other agricultural inputs in northern alberta. Cardlock parkland markets fuel through 27 cardlock facilities. these cardlock facilities are operated under various brands, including united petroleum, Husky, race trac, petro-canada and neufeld. Great Northern Oil parkland markets home heating fuel under the brand name Great northern oil from a bulk facility in Whitehorse, yukon. this facility also supports fas Gas and race trac service stations located in northern British columbia, the yukon and the northwest territories. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [7] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS HuMAN RESOuRCES parkland has approximately 1,200 employees, including 400 retail convenience store personnel throughout western canada and 200 employees in its red deer, alberta head office. parkland’s employees are also owners of the fund, investing in parkland regularly through its unit purchase plan. a profit sharing plan further contributes to the entrepreneurial spirit of parkland’s employees, fostering a sense of ownership and pride throughout the company. parkland commenced an aggressive recruitment and professional development program in 2008 to attract and retain top talent in order to carry out its strategic objective of continued growth by acquisition. key positions have been filled despite the competitive labor market in western canada and parkland will continue to focus on talent development and performance management in 2009. ACCRETIVE ACQuISITIONS corporate acquisitions are an effective means of consolidating assets, improving efficiencies in existing core areas or adding new core areas. parkland intends to continue to be proactive, focused and disciplined in its approach to such acquisitions. Generally, parkland seeks to make acquisitions that: • are accretive to cash from operating activities; • increase fuel sales volumes to increase market presence; • build non-fuel profits to enhance the long-term stability of the enterprise; • optimize supply contracts; and • diversify the customer base. NON-GAAP MEASuRES parkland’s financial results are prepared under canadian Generally accepted accounting principles (Gaap). However, in this document there are references to non-Gaap measures such as eBitda and distributable cash flow. eBitda refers to earnings Before interest on long-term debt, income tax expense, amortization of capital assets, refinery remediation accrual, accretion expense and loss on disposal of capital assets. it can be calculated from the Gaap amounts included in parkland’s financial statements. parkland believes that eBitda is a relevant measure to users of its financial information as it provides an indication of pre-tax earnings available to distribute to debt and equity holders. parkland’s definition of eBitda may not be consistent with other providers of financial information and therefore may not be comparable. Standardized distributable cash flow is a measure defined by the cica. parkland’s adjusted standardized distributable cash flow is referred to as distributable cash flow and contains certain adjustments to standardized distributable cash flow required to better reflect the cash flow available to unitholders.

PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [9] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS parkland’s distribution policy is based on distributable cash flow on an annualized basis, accordingly, the seasonality of parkland’s individual quarterly results must be assessed in the context of annualized distributable cash flow. adjustments recorded by parkland as part of its calculation of distributable cash flow include, but are not limited to, the impact of the seasonality of parkland’s businesses by adjusting for non-cash working capital items thereby eliminating the impact of the timing between the recognition and collection/payment of parkland’s revenues and expenses, which can from quarter to quarter differ significantly. parkland’s calculation also distinguishes between capital expenditures that are maintenance related and those that are growth related, in addition to allowing for the proceeds received on the sale of capital items. productive capacity maintenance is the amount of capital funds required in a period for an enterprise to maintain its future cash flow from operating activities at a constant level. parkland defines its productive capacity as volume of fuel and propane sold, volume of convenience store sales and volume of lubricants sales, agricultural inputs and delivery capacity. the adjustment for productive capacity maintenance in the calculation of standardized distributable cash is capital expenditures during the period excluding the cost of any asset acquisitions or proceeds of any asset dispositions. parkland believes that the current capital programs, based on the current view of its assets and opportunities and the outlook for fuel supply and demand and industry conditions, should be sufficient to maintain productive capacity in the medium term. due to the risks inherent in the industry, particularly the reliance on external parties for supply of fuel and propane and general economic conditions and weather that affects customer demand, there can be no assurance that capital programs, whether limited to the excess of cash flow over distributions or not, will be sufficient to maintain or increase production levels or cash flow from operating activities. as parkland strives to maintain sufficient credit facilities and appropriate levels of debt, the seasonality of the business is not currently expected to influence distribution policies. parkland’s calculation of standardized distributable cash has no adjustment for long-term unfunded contractual obligations. parkland believes the only significant long-term unfunded contractual obligation at this time is for asset retirement obligations and refinery remediation, both of which are expected to be deferred for an extended but undefinable period of time. although it is typical for parkland’s cash flow to have seasonal fluctuations, it is management’s current intention to pay consistent regular monthly distributions throughout the year based on estimated annual cash flows. the directors review distributions quarterly giving consideration to current performance, historical and future trends in the business and the expected sustainability of those trends, as well as capital betterment requirements to sustain performance. distributable cash exceeded cash distributions in the fourth quarter and for the year ended december 31, 2008. the distribution payout ratio for 2008 was 91 percent compared to 90 percent in 2007. accordingly, parkland has maintained the monthly distribution rate of $0.105 per unit. parkland believes the current level of distributions is sustainable and there are no plans under current conditions to reduce or eliminate monthly distributions.

Fuel Volumes Gasoline, diesel and propane volumes were strong with total sales of 664 million litres in the quarter ended december 31, 2008, an increase of 29 percent from 516 million litres for the same period in 2007. the increase resulted from the acquisitions completed over the past year. at the retail level, same-store fuel sales volumes increased approximately three percent over the prior year in our company operated and controlled sites but decreased approximately three percent in the independent dealer network. retail fuel volumes overall for the quarter were 339 million litres, up 24 percent or 65 million litres from the same quarter in 2007. most of this quarterly volume increase year over year is attributable to the expansion of the dealer program from the noco acquisition and iol retail branded distributorship.

[14] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS diesel demand remained very strong and refinery production problems causing shortages of supply continued as we entered the fourth quarter resulting in much higher margins in the fourth quarter than previous years. refiners’ margins for gasoline have declined from September levels but remain stronger than any mid-winter period in the last 10 years. net sales and operating revenue for the three month period ended december 31, 2008 was $524.5 million, up 15 percent from $456.1 million during the same period last year. fuel marketing revenue increased 17 percent and commercial sales decreased 11 percent compared to the same three month period in 2007. the increase in fuel marketing revenues is due to a 31 percent increase in fuel volumes sold offset by a six cent per litre average decrease in selling prices compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. the cost of fuel increased 19 percent during the quarter compared to the same quarter in 2007, contributing to the 11 percent decrease in fuel gross profit. in addition to the retail margins for gasoline and diesel, parkland participates in the refiners’ margins for a significant portion of its supply volumes. in the fourth quarter this participation yielded earnings approximately $3 million higher than the comparative period in 2007. the contribution from this margin category has been highly variable over the past two years as it produced record results in 2007, then declined to minimal amounts in the first half of 2008 and recovered substantially in the past two quarters. convenience store merchandise sales decreased four percent during the three month period compared to 2007. the decrease can be attributed to the conversion of corporate operated sites to commission or dealer operated sites. in the case of a conversion to a commission operated site, this has the impact of decreasing sales in the convenience Store merchandise segment but increasing variable rents which are included in the fuel marketing segment. total cost of sales for the quarter ended december 31, 2008 was $459.2 million, up 17 percent from $394.3 million a year earlier. the commercial segment experienced a 16 percent decrease in the cost of sales compared to the same period in 2007 resulting in gross margin increasing to 35.8 percent from 31.9 percent in the prior year. for the convenience Store segment, the decrease in cost of sales was slightly greater than the decrease in sales, resulting in a gross margin of 25.3 percent in 2008 compared to 24.3 percent in 2007. in previous quarters parkland has made reference to fifo inventory adjustment gains and losses. the fifo inventory adjustment can be better described as the impact of price risk on a fixed quantity of gasoline that was purchased in the late 1990’s as security towards a major fuel supply contract. parkland acquired 30 million litres of gasoline that is held by a major supplier in storage in edmonton. under the lifo inventory valuation method this fuel inventory was previously recorded by parkland at acquisition cost. With the early adoption of the cica Handbook Section 3031, inventories, at december 31, 2007, the 30 million litres of gasoline inventory is revalued quarterly at current fuel costs under the fifo basis. With the significant decrease of crude oil costs in the fourth quarter and the corresponding decrease in gasoline costs during the same period the revaluation of this inventory in the fourth quarter of 2008 resulted in a reduction in fuel margins of $14.9 million, offsetting gains in the first two quarters of 2008. for the year ended december 31, 2008 parkland recorded a cumulative loss of $12.1 million (gain of $4.2 million in 2007). Operating Expenses operating and direct costs were $26.9 million in the fourth quarter compared to $32.4 million for the same period in 2007. Some of this decrease is driven by a decrease in sales volume in the commercial segment during the fourth quarter compared to 2007. in the fourth quarter of 2007 parkland reclassified as operating and direct costs approximately $7 million of local truck delivery expenses which had been recorded as cost of sales in the first three quarters. this affects the quarter over quarter comparison between the periods. operating and direct costs in 2008 includes a $1.7 million bad debt allowance. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [15] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS marketing, general and administrative expenses were $13.4 million in the fourth quarter compared to $11.5 million for the same period in 2007. included in this expense category is $0.2 million of operating costs related to the erp implementation and a $1.0 million write-off of the Beaver Hills feasibility study. Interest in Long-term Debt interest on long-term debt was $1.4 million in the fourth quarter compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2007. the increase is due to the increase in bank indebtedness and long-term debt throughout the year. Income Tax Expense income tax expense was $3.8 million in the fourth quarter compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2007. in the fourth quarter of 2008 parkland reversed a $3.0 million income tax recovery and recorded a net income tax expense for the year of $0.8 million. Earnings earnings before income taxes in the fourth quarter of 2008 were $13.8 million, up 21 percent from $11.5 million a year earlier. eBitda for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $25.1 million, up 40 percent from $17.9 million in 2007. the increase in eBitda from 2007 is explained by the $3.5 million increase in gross profit combined with a reduction of $3.6 million of cash expenses. eBitda for the quarter, after adjusting for the $15 million loss on fifo inventory adjustment and removing the $5 million non-recurring contract cancellation fee, would have been $35.1 million. Capital Assets and Amortization amortization expense in the fourth quarter of 2008 was $9.1 million, up from $2.8 million a year earlier. during the fourth quarter of 2008, the fund expended $14.6 million (2007 - $16.4 million) in net capital investments, of which $3.5 million (2007 - $4.6 million) was classified as maintenance capital and $11.1 million (2007 - $11.8 million) was classified as growth capital. for accounting purposes, amounts expended on both maintenance and growth capital are treated as purchases of capital assets. the classification of capital as growth or maintenance is subject to judgment, as many of the fund’s capital projects have components of both. it is the fund’s policy to classify all capital assets related to service station upgrades or the replacement and betterment of its trucking fleet as maintenance capital. the construction of a new building on an existing site or the additions of new trucks and trailers to increase the size of the fleet is considered growth capital. Long-term Debt and Cash Balances for the three month period ended december 31, 2008 interest on long-term debt was $1.4 million, up from $0.5 million in the same quarter in 2007. most of the fund’s long-term debt bears interest at variable rates linked to prime. during the fourth quarter, operating activities generated $38.2 million of cash of which $15.9 million was used to fund unitholder distributions, $4.5 million was used to repurchase fund units and $14.6 million was used for net growth and maintenance capital purchases during the quarter. additional net borrowings against the fund’s operating facility provided cash of $8.1 million. parkland’s cash position at december 31, 2008 increased by $10.9 million during the quarter compared to a decrease of $5.1 million in the same quarter of 2007.

Operating Expenses operating and direct costs incurred during 2008 were $92.0 million, up 18 percent from $77.7 million a year earlier. marketing, general and administrative expenses were $48 million in 2008, up 21 percent from $39.8 million a year earlier. contributing to the increase in expenses were the acquisitions of noco and Wiebe during 2008 and the increased volume of business during 2008 compared to the prior year. included in this expense category is $1.6 million of operating costs related to the erp implementation and a $1.0 million write-off of the Beaver Hills feasibility study. Interest in Long-term Debt interest on long-term debt was $4.8 million in 2008 compared to $1.7 million in 2007. the increase is due to the increase in bank indebtedness and long-term debt throughout the year. Income Tax Expense income tax expense was $0.8 million in 2008 compared to $8.0 million in 2007. the 2007 income tax expense included a future tax provision of $7.7 million as a result of the taxation of trusts in 2011. Earnings earnings before income taxes for the year were $45.2 million, down 49 percent from $88.7 million a year earlier. the decrease in twelve month earnings is due to the decrease in refiners’ margins experienced during the first six months of 2008 compared to the prior year, combined with an increase in cash expenses of $22.7 million. eBitda for 2008 was $81.2 million, down $33.9 million or 29 percent from $115.1 million in 2007. the decrease in eBitda from 2007 can be summarized as an $11.1 million decrease in gross profit combined with an increase in cash expenses of $22.8 million. eBitda for the year, after adjusting for the $12.1 million loss on fifo inventory adjustment and removing the $6.3 million non-recurring contract cancellation fee, would have been $87.0 million. Capital Assets and Amortization amortization expense was $30.4 million, up 40 percent from $21.6 million a year earlier. a full year of amortization for capital assets and intangible assets acquired in 2007 plus amortization of capital assets acquired in 2008 accounted for the increase. the fund expended $31.9 million in net capital investments, of which $10 million was classified as maintenance capital and $21.9 million was classified as growth capital.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, CAPITAL RESOuRCES AND LIQuIDITY parkland has available an extendible facility, including bank indebtedness and letters of credit, up to a maximum amount of $169 million and bears interest, payable monthly, at the bank’s prime lending rate plus 0.4 to 0.9 percent per annum. the extendible facility is subject to renewal on august 1, 2009 at which time it can be extended at parkland or lender’s option for 364 days. if the extendible facility is not extended, all amounts outstanding are repayable in twelve consecutive quarterly instalments, commencing on the last day of the third month following the then maturity date, with the first eleven of such instalments being one-twenty fifth of the outstanding balance and remainder at the end of the period. Security for the extendible facility is assignment of insurance and an unlimited guarantee from the secured entities. at december 31, 2008 parkland had $70.2 million in long-term debt (excluding $3.2 million of the current portion). at december 31, 2008, $40.0 million of the revolving operating facility was utilized. parkland believes that cash flow from operations will be adequate to fund maintenance capital, interest and targeted distributions. Growth capital expenditures in 2009 will be funded by the revolving extendible credit facility. additional debt incurred will be serviced by anticipated increases in cash flow and it is expected that net debt to eBitda ratios of less than 2.0 times will be maintained. parkland manages its capital structure and makes adjustments according to market conditions to maintain flexibility while achieving objectives stated above. to manage the capital structure, parkland may adjust capital spending, adjust distributions paid to unitholders, issue new units, issue new debt or repay existing debt. parkland takes into account the maximum equity growth limits when managing and monitoring its capital structure. parkland’s allowed growth capital at december 31, 2008 was approximately $272 million (december 31, 2007 - $204 million). if the maximum equity growth allowed is exceeded, the fund may be subject to trust taxation prior to 2011.

DISTRIBuTIONS the following table sets forth the record date, date of payment, per trust unit amount of distributions paid and total cash distributed for 2008: Payment Date Per Trust Unit Total Cash Distributed (thousands) Record Date January 31, 2008 February 28, 2008 March 30, 2008 April 30, 2008 May 31, 2008 June 29, 2008 July 31, 2008 August 31, 2008 September 28, 2008 October 31, 2008 November 30, 2008 December 31, 2008 February 15, 2008 March 14, 2008 April 15, 2008 May 15, 2008 June 13, 2008 July 15, 2008 August 15, 2008 September 15, 2008 October 15, 2008 November 14, 2008 December 15, 2008 January 15, 2009 Total distributions declared to Unitholders Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2008 Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2007 Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2006 Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2005 Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2004 Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2003 Total distributions declared to Unitholders in 2002 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 0.1050 1.2600 5,261 5,281 5,282 5,283 5,284 5,285 5,286 5,287 5,288 5,291 5,292 5,296 63,416 63,416 90,518 56,171 23,872 21,075 20,376 13,208 [20] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS CRITICAL ACCOuNTING ESTIMATES estimates are used when accounting for items such as allowance for doubtful accounts, asset retirement obligations, the refinery remediation accrual, amortization and income taxes. these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the effect on the financial statements of future periods could be material. at december 31, 2004, parkland recorded the net estimated liability that would be realized if the refinery assets were remediated, dismantled and sold for salvage values. estimated remediation costs were supported by a third party report, while other costs were based on management estimates. during 2007 parkland activated a portion of the refinery to toll produce fluids used in the oilfield and utilized tankage for fuel storage. parkland is continuing to pursue other economically viable uses for the remaining processing units at the refinery and therefore any decision to dismantle, remediate and sell the refinery site has been deferred indefinitely. parkland renewed its refinery operating license in 2007 and fully intends to maximize the revenue generating potential of this facility. the obligations relating to future environmental remediation, however, continue to exist. assuming parkland continues operations at the refinery, remediation for any potential environmental liabilities associated with a complete dismantling of the site would be delayed indefinitely. parkland has estimated the cost of remediation on the basis that any future remediation would be part of a multi-year management plan. remediation costs have been estimated from independent engineering studies conducted in January 2008 resulting in an additional $3.0 million accrual as at december 31, 2007. the studies recognize increases in remediation costs as well as increases in remediation standards since the original study conducted in 1999. the expected cost, to be incurred over an extended period after operations cease, are approximately $6.1 million net of salvage value of equipment. actual costs and salvage values could differ significantly from these estimates when, and if, the refinery is remediated, dismantled and sold. parkland has conducted its regular review of the book values of its property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets and tested for impairment of value. parkland determined that there was no impairment to be recognized. FINANCIAL INSTRuMENTS Credit and Market Risk a substantial portion of parkland’s accounts receivable balance is with customers in the oil and gas and forestry industries and is subject to normal industry credit risks. in light of the current market conditions, parkland’s credit department has been expanded and policies strengthened to control the credit granting process. parkland performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and outstanding debts are regularly monitored. parkland is exposed to market risk from changes in the canadian prime interest rate which can impact its borrowing costs. parkland purchases certain products in uS dollars and sells such products to its customers typically in canadian dollars. as a result, fluctuations in the value of the canadian dollar relative to the uS dollar can result in foreign exchange gains and losses. Risk Management parkland manages its exposure to credit risk through rigorous credit granting procedures, typically short payment terms and security interests where applicable. parkland attempts to closely monitor financial conditions of its customers and the industries in which they operate. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [21] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS during the fourth quarter of 2008, parkland was able to significantly reduce its accounts receivable balance from $154 million at September 30, 2008 to $113 million at december 31, 2008 as a result of these enhanced credit and collection efforts. at december 31, 2008, the provision for impairment of credit losses was $3.5 million. OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS the fund has not engaged in any off balance sheet arrangements. OuTLOOK two months into the first quarter of 2009, retail fuel sales volumes remain similar to the prior year and retail margins remain strong in spite of the cold weather season when demand for gasoline is typically weaker. commercial fuel sales volumes have been softer in northern alberta as upstream oil and gas customers have curtailed drilling programs. diesel supply has increased from shortages experienced in 2008 causing margins to trend downward although they remain strong by historic standards. refiners’ margins for gasoline have increased to the degree that they are stronger than any mid-winter period in the past 10 years. as of the current date they have declined somewhat from their peak in mid-february. the fall fertilization season did not generate the volume of activity that was expected as a result of drought and high fertilizer prices but parkland is optimistic that it can make much of that volume up in the second quarter of 2009 as farmers will need fertilizer to plant crops, assuming normal weather conditions. Subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter, 40 dealers in ontario and alberta came on-line as a result of agreements parkland entered into that increased the number of accounts in its esso retail branded distributorship business. these dealers, with an anticipated annual volume of 200 million litres of gasoline and diesel are expected to contribute to parkland’s growth in 2009. While early profitability for 2009 is positive parkland recognizes that it operates in uncertain economic times. demand for parkland’s products fluctuates to a certain extent with economic conditions and may deteriorate over time. profit margins also vary from time to time in response to changes in demand and economic conditions in general. these factors represent a risk for parkland’s profitability going forward. NON CAPITAL RESOuRCES Employees parkland’s ability to deliver on its strategy is contingent on retaining and acquiring employees with the proper skill sets to drive the key initiatives forward. as such, there is a focus on recruiting and retaining key employees. to date, parkland has been successful at filling key positions as needed. compensation plans for senior management have significant incentive arrangements, with overall compensation dependent on parkland’s performance, business unit operating performance and results on individually identified key initiatives. parkland has an active Human resources department, with compensation plans and benefits reviewed on an ongoing basis to best meet the needs of parkland and the various employee groups it includes. in lieu of a pension plan, parkland provides a unit purchase plan with matching employer contributions. a profit sharing plan is also available to most employees with greater than one year service. initiatives like these are intended to bring a sense of ownership to the employee groups as increases in profits and unit prices are beneficial to all. [22] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS Safety in addition to other risks, parkland’s primary business involves the transportation and sale of fuel products and other dangerous goods such as anhydrous ammonia, which have an inherently high degree of risk. parkland provides training to all staff as required to mitigate these risks and has operations and response procedures to cover risk situations. Safety bonuses are also provided to employees in higher risk roles as a means of motivating safe performance of duties. parkland has a director of Health, Safety & environment (“HSe”), two HSe managers and HSe committees. the HSe committees represent all areas of parkland’s business and ensures all identified risks are properly mitigated and that procedures and documentation are consistent across the entire organization. in 2007 and 2008, parkland satisfactorily completed external and internal audits of its safety program and facilities. Technology parkland utilizes technology to assist with the administration and control of its operations. technology initiatives are primarily implemented in-house with outside consultants used to assist in specific areas. parkland’s technology initiatives include upgrading point of Sale systems at convenience store and service station sites, upgrading cardlock hardware and software; expanding the use of its handheld inventory billing devices for bulk fuel sales and continued maintenance and security related to overall network administration and emergency response plan processes. parkland is currently undergoing extensive business process re-engineering and an upgrade of its enterprise resource planning (“erp”) software. parkland has engaged external consultants who have experience in the fuel marketing industry and with our erp software to assist management with this project. extensive testing in a controlled environment will be conducted before implementing any changes to parkland’s accounting and reporting systems. Based on the current long-range technology plans, parkland plans to implement technology changes using qualified and experienced external consultants within a test environment to minimize any undue risk to parkland’s business related to required or planned technology changes. BuSINESS RISKS risks related to the Business and the industry Retail Pricing and Margin Erosion retail pricing for motor fuels is very competitive, with major oil companies and new entrants such as grocery chains and large retailers active in the marketplace. from time to time, factors such as competitive pricing, seasonal over-supply and lack of responsiveness of retail pricing to changes in crude oil costs can lead to lower margins in parkland’s business. this is normally limited to seasonal time frames or limited market areas but could occur more extensively. furthermore, difficult fuel market conditions may also adversely affect parkland’s major customers and create increased credit risk. these risks are partially mitigated by parkland’s other sources of revenue, conservative credit policies, geographic diversification and by the wholesale business, which typically would only share in a portion of any market erosion. Competition We compete with major integrated oil companies, other commercial fuel and propane marketers, convenience store chains, independent convenience stores, gas station operators, large and small food retailers, discount stores and mass merchants, many of which are well-established companies. in recent years, several non-traditional retail segments have entered the motor fuel retail business, including supermarkets, club stores and mass merchants. these non-traditional motor fuel retailers have obtained a significant share of the motor fuel market and this could grow. the emergence of large scale highway truck stops throughout western canada has reduced our share of this market and customer demographic. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [23] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS in some of our markets, our competitors have been in existence longer and have greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do. We may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and competitive pressures faced by us could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Volatility in Crude Oil Prices and in Wholesale Petroleum Pricing and Supply our motor fuel and propane revenues are a significant component of total revenues. crude oil and domestic wholesale petroleum markets display significant volatility. We are susceptible to interruptions in the supply of motor fuel at our facilities. General political conditions and instability in oil producing regions, particularly in the middle east, africa and South america, could significantly and adversely affect crude oil supplies and wholesale production costs. local supply interruptions may also occur. Volatility in wholesale petroleum supply and costs could result in significant changes in the retail price of petroleum products and in lower fuel gross margin per litre. in addition, changes in the retail price of petroleum products could dampen consumer demand for motor fuel. these factors could materially influence our motor fuel volume, motor fuel gross profit and overall customer traffic, which, in turn could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. the development of the oilsands in northern alberta, together with upgraders producing a distillate stream has the potential to add significant supply volumes in the diesel market over time. production at these facilities is subject to production interruptions which can periodically disrupt the availability of refined product in the region. Some of our supply costs allow us to participate in refiners margins. these margins are volatile and not assured. Credit parkland grants credit to customers ranging from small independent service station operators to larger reseller and commercial/industrial accounts. these accounts may default on their obligations. parkland manages this exposure through rigorous credit granting procedures, typically short payment terms and security interests where applicable. We attempt to closely monitor financial conditions of our customers. Safety and Environmental the operation of service stations, refinery facilities and petroleum, propane and anhydrous ammonia transport trucks and commercial facilities carry an element of safety and environmental risk. to prevent environmental incidents from occurring, parkland has extensive safety and environmental procedures and monitoring programs at all of its facilities. to mitigate the impact of a major accident, parkland has emergency response programs in place and provides its employees with extensive training in operational responsibilities in the event of an environmental incident. Dependence on Key Suppliers parkland’s business depends to a large extent on a small number of fuel suppliers, a number of which are parties to long-term supply agreements with the fund. an interruption or reduction in the supply of products and services by such suppliers could adversely affect parkland’s revenue and distributions in the future. further, if any of the long-term supply agreements are terminated or end in accordance with their terms, parkland may experience disruptions in its ability to supply customers with product until a new source of supply can be secured, if at all. Such a disruption may have a material negative impact on parkland’s revenues, distributions and its reputation. additionally, parkland cannot ensure that it will be able to renegotiate such agreements or negotiate new agreements on terms favorable to parkland. parkland attempts to mitigate this risk by maintaining a diverse supply portfolio to include substantial volumes from each of its major suppliers and growing to a level of annual sales volumes that will offer potential suppliers a compelling share of the fuel supply business in our regional market. a majority of parkland’s fuel supply, measured by volume, is not subject to termination for at least four years. [24] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS Economic Conditions demand for transportation fuels fluctuates to a certain extent with economic conditions. in a general economic slowdown there is less recreational and industrial travel and consequently less demand for fuel products, which may adversely affect parkland’s revenue, profitability and ability to pay distributions. parkland serves the farm trade. this sector is subject to weather variation and commodity price fluctuation. the oil and gas exploration sector is subject to changes in commodity prices and access to capital which impacts the drilling budgets of parkland’s customers. this largely affects oilfield fluids, propane and bulk fuel sales directly as well as impacts communities in primary exploration regions in alberta and northern British columbia. the oil production sector is more stable but will ultimately decline with reduced exploration activity. parkland provides propane and related product sales to this sector. forestry has seen reduced activity over the past year and continues to be weak. mining is susceptible to variations in commodity prices. parkland fuel customers include several mines producing different metals and their demand for fuel may decline. part of parkland’s profitability is derived from its share of refiners’ margins under a long-term supply contract. refiners’ margins may deteriorate in the face of declining demand for petroleum products. Dependence on Key Personnel parkland’s success will be substantially dependent on the continued services of senior management. the loss of the services of one or more members of senior management could adversely affect parkland’s operating results. in addition, parkland’s continued growth depends on the ability of parkland and its subsidiaries to attract and retain skilled operating managers and employees and the ability of its key personnel to manage parkland’s growth and consolidate and integrate its operations. there can be no assurance that parkland will be successful in attracting and retaining such managers, employees and other personnel. Alternate Fuels industry continues to develop alternatives to fossil fuels for motive transport and continues to improve the efficiency of internal combustion engines. to date, no economically viable alternative to the transportation fuels parkland markets is widely available. Should such an alternative become widely available, it may negatively affect the demand for parkland’s products. as well, the federal government and certain provinces have developed or are developing legislation requiring the inclusion of ethanol in gasoline and use of biodiesel which may negatively affect the overall demand for fossil fuel products. Climate Change parkland does not operate any industrial sites and is not a major emitter of greenhouse gases. the federal and provincial governments in canada are formulating laws and regulations designed to limit greenhouse gas emissions which would be expected to result in a decline of consumption of petroleum products over time. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [25] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS Technology at the operational level, parkland relies on electronic systems for recording of sales and accumulation of financial data. a major breakdown of computer systems would disrupt the flow of information and could cause a loss of records. this is mitigated by redundancies, emergency response plans and back up procedures. the conversion and upgrade of electronic systems could result in lost or corrupt data which could impact the accuracy of financial reporting and management information. Insurance although we have a comprehensive insurance program in effect, there can be no assurance that potential liabilities will not exceed the applicable coverage limits under our insurance policies. consistent with industry practice, not all risk factors are covered by insurance and no assurance can be given that insurance will be consistently available or will be consistently available on an economically feasible basis. We do not maintain insurance coverage for environmental damage. Management Operations of Industries LP the Board of directors of parkland industries ltd. oversees the management and operation of parkland’s operating entities. as a result, holders of units of parkland will have limited say in matters affecting the operation of the business and, if such holders are in disagreement with the decisions of the Board of directors, they will have limited recourse. the control exercised by the Board of directors may make it more difficult for others to attempt to gain control or influence the activities of the operating entities. Interest Rates most of parkland’s loans have floating rates and may be negatively impacted by increases in interest rates, the effect of which increases would be to reduce the amount of cash available for distributions. in addition, the market price of the units at any given time may be affected by the level of interest rates prevailing at such time. Government Legislation transportation fuel sales are taxed by the federal (GSt and excise tax), provincial and, in some cases, municipal governments. increases in taxes or changes in tax legislation are possible and could negatively affect demand, profitability or the attractiveness of the fund structure as an investment. Refinery Operating Permit the refinery has operated as a toll-based petrochemical processing site and fuel storage site. parkland obtained a new permit in 2007 to allow for continued use or for alternative uses of the facility. the new permit expires in 2017. if operations at the refinery are not continued parkland may incur significant remediation costs. Regional Economic Conditions parkland’s revenues may be negatively influenced by changes in regional or local economic variables and consumer confidence. external factors that affect economic variables and consumer confidence and over which parkland exercises no influence include unemployment rates, levels of personal disposable income and regional or economic conditions. changes in economic conditions could adversely affect consumer spending patterns, travel and tourism in certain of parkland’s market areas. Some of our sites are located in markets which are more severely affected by weak economic conditions. [26] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS Risks Related to the Structure of the Fund the following items refer to the structure of the fund and the legal entities that are contained within this structure. the structure is described in greater detail in the annual information form and the 2007 information circular. parkland income fund (the “fund”) owns parkland income trust (the “trust”) which in turn owns a portion of parkland Holdings limited partnership (“Holdings lp”). the remainder of Holdings lp is held by investors through the class B and class c limited partnership units referred to in note 8 of the financial statements. Holdings lp owns parkland industries limited partnership (“industries lp”) which conducts most of the business of the fund. Holdings lp also owns parkland industries ltd. (the “administrator”) which is the general partner of industries lp, parkland refining ltd. which holds the Bowden refinery assets, Joy propane ltd, united petroleum products inc and neufeld petroleum and propane ltd. Cash Distributions are Not Guaranteed and will Fluctuate with Performance of the Business although the fund intends to distribute the interest and distributions income earned by the fund, less expenses and amounts, if any, paid by the fund in connection with the redemption of units, there can be no assurance regarding the amounts of income to be generated by the Business and transferred indirectly to the fund. the actual amount distributed in respect of the units will depend upon numerous factors, including profitability, fluctuations in working capital, the sustainability of margins, capital expenditures and the actual cash amounts distributed to the fund, directly and indirectly, by the trust, Holdings lp and industries lp. Capital Investment the timing and amount of capital expenditures will directly affect the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders. distributions may be substantially reduced at times when significant capital or other expenditures are made. Nature of units Securities like the units of parkland are hybrids in that they share certain attributes common to both equity securities and debt instruments. the units do not represent a direct investment in the trusts, Holdings lp, industries lp or the administrator and should not be viewed by investors as trust units, trust notes, Holdings lp units, industries participating lp units or parkland Shares. as holders of units of parkland, unitholders will not have the statutory rights normally associated with ownership of shares of a corporation including, for example, the right to bring “oppression” or “derivative” actions. the units represent a fractional interest in the fund. the fund’s primary assets will be trust notes and trust units. the price per unit is a function of anticipated distributable cash and other market factors. the units are not “deposits” within the meaning of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Act (canada) and are not insured under the provisions of the act or any other legislation. furthermore, the fund is not a trust company and, accordingly, is not registered under any trust and loan company legislation as it does not carry on or intend to carry on the business of a trust company. Distribution of Securities on Redemption or Termination of the Fund upon redemption of units or termination of the fund, the trustee may distribute the fund notes, trust notes, trust units or Holdings lp units directly to the unitholders, subject to obtaining any required regulatory approvals. fund notes, trust notes, trust units or Holdings lp units so distributed may not be qualified investments for trusts governed by registered retirement savings plans, registered retirement income funds, deferred profit sharing plans, registered education savings plans and other registered plans, depending upon the circumstances at the time. The Fund May Issue Additional units Diluting Existing unitholders’ Interests the fund declaration of trust authorizes the fund to issue an unlimited number of units for the consideration and on those terms and conditions as are established by the directors without the approval of any unitholders. additional units will be issued by the fund on the exchange of rollover lp units. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [27] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS Restrictions on Potential Growth the payout by industries lp of substantially all of its operating cash flow will make additional capital and operating expenditures dependent on increased cash flow or additional financing in the future. lack of those funds could limit the future growth of industries lp and its cash flow. Investment Eligibility and Foreign Property there can be no assurance that the units will continue to be qualified investments for registered retirement savings plans, deferred profit sharing plans, registered retirement income trusts, registered education savings plans or other registered plans or that the units will not be foreign property under the tax act. the tax act imposes penalties for the acquisition or holding of non-qualified or ineligible investments and on excess holdings of foreign property. Enactment of the Tax on Income Trusts on June 12, 2007, the legislation (“Bill c-52”) implementing the new tax on publicly traded income trusts and limited partnerships (the “Sift tax”), referred to as “Specified investment flow-through” (“Sift”) entities received third reading in the House of commons and on June 22, 2007, the Bill received royal assent. for Sifts in existence on october 31, 2006 including parkland, the Sift tax will be effective in 2011 or earlier if certain rules related to “undue expansion” are not adhered to. under the Sift tax, distributions from certain types of income will not be deductible for income tax purposes by Sifts in 2011 and thereafter and any resultant trust level taxable income will be taxed at an approximate of the corporate income tax rate. the Sift rate was initially 31.5 percent however on october 30, 2007, the Government of canada, in its mini-Budget, proposed changing the rate to match corporate rates. distributions from income subject to the Sift tax will be considered taxable dividends to unitholders, generally eligible for the dividend tax credit. as a result, the Sift tax will not adversely affect canadian investors who hold parkland units in a non-tax deferred account. distributions representing a return of capital for income tax purposes will continue to be an adjustment to a unitholder’s adjusted cost base of trust units. parkland’s Board of directors and management are continuously monitoring the impact of this tax on its business strategies. parkland expects future technical interpretations and details will further clarify the legislation. at the present time, parkland believes some or all of the following actions will or could result in the future due to the Sift tax: • if structural or other similar changes are not made, the after-tax distribution yield in 2011 to taxable canadian investors will remain approximately the same, however, the distribution yield in 2011 to tax deferred canadian investors (rrSp’s, rrif’s, pension plans, etc.) and foreign investors would fall by an estimated 31.5 percent and 26.5 percent, respectively; • a portion of parkland’s cash flow could, as a result, be required for the payment of the Sift tax, or other forms of tax, and would not be available for distribution or reinvestment; • parkland could convert to a corporate structure with yield in the form of dividends to facilitate investing a higher proportion or all of its cash flow in projects. Such a conversion could result in the reduction, or the elimination, of the current distribution program in favor of higher capital investment and/or a dividend payment program; • parkland might determine that it is more economic to remain in the trust structure, at least for a period of time, and shelter its taxable income using tax pools and pay all or a portion of its distributions on a return of capital basis, likely at a lower payout ratio. further, as the Sift tax rate exceeds the corporate income tax rate that would be applicable to parkland, the tax strategy might involve paying some corporate tax resulting in all or a portion of those distributions being paid on a return of capital basis at a lower payout ratio. [28] 2008 Summary report Parkland Income Fund ManageMent’s Discussion anD analysis parkland continues to review all organizational structures and alternatives to minimize the impact of the SIFt tax on its unitholders. While there can be no assurance that the negative effect of the tax can be minimized or eliminated, parkland and its advisors will continue to work diligently on these issues. additional detailed risk factors of parkland Income Fund are described in parkland’s annual Information Form for 2008 dated march 17, 2009 which is available on the Fund’s profile at www.sedar.com SuPPlementary InFormatIon parkland seeks to provide relevant information to allow investors to evaluate its operations. the nature of this information is limited by competitive sensitivities, confidentiality terms in written agreements and parkland’s policy not to provide guidance regarding future earnings. We have developed a template of supplementary information that is published with each quarterly financial report. For persons seeking information regarding fuel margins we refer to outside sources: websites of western Canadian refiners, Bloomberg’s oil Buyers Guide, Nymex contracts for gasoline and crude oil as well as Government of Canada, Natural resources Canada reports. Data from these sources will not be sufficient to calculate parkland’s fuel margin given that it does not correlate directly with our market region and supply contracts, but should indicate margin trends. dIStrIbutIon reInveStment Plan parkland has a Distribution reinvestment plan administered by Valiant trust parkland. Details are available from the Fund or from Valiant trust parkland. controlS envIronment management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We have established disclosure controls and procedures, internal controls over financial reporting, and corporate-wide policies to provide that parkland’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows are presented fairly. our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure timely disclosure and communication of all material information required by regulators. all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. therefore, these systems provide reasonable, but not absolute assurance, that financial information is accurate and complete. parkland, under the supervision and participation of management, including the Chief executive officer and Chief Financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting pursuant to multinational Instrument 52-109 “Certificate of Disclosure in Issuers’ annual and Interim Filings” as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluations, it was concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2008 to provide reasonable assurance that information required is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the applicable Canadian securities regulators. Furthermore, our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting include controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under applicable Canadian securities regulations is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief executive officer and Chief Financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During 2008, parkland conducted a review of the accounting system and internal controls environment at the acquired companies and concluded that there were no material weaknesses in the disclosure controls and procedures as at December 31, 2008. parkland has determined that weaknesses exist relating to the lack of integration of the financial reporting systems and requirement for extensive manual interventions during the financial reporting process. the weaknesses identified are mitigated through other compensating controls. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [29] management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS parkland is currently undergoing extensive business process re-engineering and an upgrade of its enterprise resource planning (“erp”) software. the objectives of the project include the following: • • introduce best business practices, consistency and uniformity to its core business operations, controls and accounting processes; integrate all systems and processes of the business, including that of the acquired companies, into its erp software; and • complete the integration of the acquired companies by merging systems, processes, controls and operations. the initiatives outlined above are now expected to be substantially completed during 2009. parkland has a disclosure committee, consisting of three senior management members, that approves all items for public disclosure and also considers whether all items required to be disclosed are disclosed. NEW ACCOuNTING STANDARDS ADOPTED on January 1, 2008, the fund adopted the canadian institute of chartered accountants (cica) handbook sections 1535 “capital disclosures”, section 3862 “financial instruments - disclosures” and section 3863 “financial instruments - presentation”. Section 1535 establishes disclosure requirements about an entity’s capital and how it is managed. the purpose will be to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate objectives, policies and processes for managing capital. Sections 3862 and 3863 will replace section 3861 “financial instruments – disclosure and presentation”, revising and enhancing disclosure requirements while carrying forward its presentation requirements. these new sections place increased emphasis on disclosure about the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments and how the entity manages those risks. RECENT ACCOuNTING STANDARDS International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) the canadian accounting Standards Board (“acSB”) has adopted a strategy to apply ifrS to publicly accountable enterprises in the future. in may 2007, the acSB published an updated version of its “implementation plan for incorporating international financial reporting Standards into canadian Gaap”. this plan includes an outline of the key decisions that the acSB will need to make as it implements the Strategic plan for publicly accountable enterprises. one step in the implementation plan is for the acSB to conduct a progress review to determine if the changeover date to ifrS for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011 continues to be appropriate. the acSB has commenced these activities and published its initial plan “progress review - Steps to ifrS incorporation into canadian Gaap” in July 2007. on february 13, 2008, the acSB confirmed the transition date of January 1, 2011. the transition date of January 1, 2011, will require parkland to restate for comparative purposes amounts reported for the year ended december 31, 2010. [30] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND management’S DiScuSSion anD analYSiS a diagnostic analysis on parkland’s 2007 financial Statements was performed near the end of 2008. the diagnostic identified the key accounting changes that parkland would expect as a result of ifrS transition. parkland will be reviewing the implementation plan for phase 2 of the ifrS conversion over the coming weeks, following which it will commit resources, approve budget and ensure the participation of both operational and financial representatives on ifrS project teams. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Section 3064, Goodwill and intangibles assets, is effective for periods beginning on or after october 1, 2008 and the fund will implement it as of January 1, 2009. this section, which replaces Section 3062, Goodwill and other intangibles assets, and Section 3450, research and development costs establishes standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of goodwill and intangibles assets. parkland has assessed that the impact of the adoption of this standard will not be significant. CONTRACTuAL OBLIGATIONS the fund has contracted obligations under various debt agreements as well as under operating and capital leases for land, building and equipment. minimum lease and principal payments ($000’s) under the existing terms are as follows: Year ending, December 31 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Thereafter Mortgages, bank indebtedness, bank loans and notes payable Operating leases 42,929 11,601 11,584 11,535 11,533 23,066 112,248 2,584 1,867 1,531 701 537 2,008 9,228 Capital leases 295 204 38 146 57 642 1,382 the fund also has purchase commitments under its fuel supply contracts that require the purchase of approximately 1.0 billion litres of product over the next year. uNITS OuTSTANDING as at december 31, 2008, parkland had 49.7 million units outstanding and 0.7 million unit options outstanding. all of the options outstanding are currently exercisable into units. managementS reSponSiBilitY for financial StatementS PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [31] the accompanying financial statements of parkland income fund have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. parkland’s accounting procedures and related systems of internal control are designed to provide reasonable assurance that its assets are safeguarded and its financial records are reliable. in recognizing that parkland is responsible for both the integrity and objectivity of the financial statements, management is satisfied that these financial statements have been prepared accordingly and within reasonable limits of materiality. further, management is satisfied that the financial information throughout the balance of this annual report is consistent with the information presented in the financial statements. pricewaterhousecoopers llp have been appointed by the unitholders of parkland to serve as the fund’s external auditors. they have examined the financial statements of the fund for the years ended december 31, 2008 and 2007. the audit committee has reviewed these statements with management and the auditors, and has reported to the Board of directors. the Board has approved the information contained in the financial statements of parkland which are contained in this report. michael W. chorlton president and ceo red deer, alberta february 27, 2009 John G.

ACCOuNTING POLICIES these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Basis of Presentation parkland income fund is an unincorporated, open-ended limited purpose mutual fund trust established under the laws of the province of alberta on april 30, 2002. the fund was created to acquire the fuel marketing, convenience store and related ancillary businesses formerly owned by parkland industries ltd. this acquisition was completed on June 28, 2002 through a plan of arrangement that resulted in the previous parkland industries ltd. shareholders indirectly exchanging their shares for units in the fund or class B limited partnership units in parkland Holdings limited partnership (“lp units”), a limited partnership controlled by the fund. Principles of Consolidation the consolidated financial Statements include the accounts of parkland income fund and its subsidiaries, partnerships and trusts (collectively the “fund”). all significant accounts and transactions between consolidated entities are eliminated. the lp units are, to the greatest extent possible, the economic equivalent to a unit in the fund. the class B lp units had a call feature which would have resulted in their conversion to trust units in June 2008 resulting in an income tax obligation to the holders. at a meeting of class B lp unitholders on June 22, 2007 this call feature was deferred to June 30, 2011. in certain circumstances the fund may compel the exchange of the lp units. as such, the lp units, including both class B and class c units, are treated as being equivalent to fund units. use of Estimates the preparation of the consolidated financial Statements necessarily involves the use of estimates and approximations. Should the underlying assumptions change, the actual amounts could differ from those estimated. estimates are used when accounting for items such as allowance for doubtful accounts, asset retirement obligations, the refinery remediation accrual, amortization and income taxes. these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the effect on the financial statements of future periods could be material. Financial Instruments a financial asset is cash or a contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset, including equity, from another party. a financial liability is the contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another party. a derivative is a financial instrument whose value changes in response to a specified variable, requires little or no net investment and is settled at a future date. an embedded derivative is a derivative that is a part of a non-derivative contract and not directly related to that contract. under this standard, embedded derivatives must be accounted for as a separate financial instrument. a non-financial derivative is a contract that can be settled net in cash or another financial instrument. all financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and are subsequently accounted for based on one of four classifications: held for trading, held-to-maturity, loans and receivables and other financial liabilities or available-for-sale. the classification of a financial instrument depends on its characteristics and the purpose for which it was acquired. fair values are based upon quoted market prices available from active markets or are otherwise determined using a variety of valuation techniques and models. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [37] noteS to conSoliDateD financial StatementS i) Held for trading Held for trading financial instruments are financial assets or financial liabilities that are purchased with the intention of selling or repurchasing in the near term. any financial instrument can be designated as held for trading as long as its fair value can be reliably measured. a derivative is classified as held for trading, unless designated as and considered an effective hedge. Held for trading instruments are recorded at fair value with any subsequent gains or losses from changes in the fair value recorded directly into earnings. all of the fund’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and distributions declared and payable are designated as held for trading and are recorded at fair value. ii) Held-to-maturity Held-to-maturity investments are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and a fixed maturity that the fund has the intent and ability to hold to maturity. these financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. any gains or losses arising from the sale of a held-to-maturity investment are recorded directly into earnings. the fund has not designated any financial instruments as held-to-maturity. iii) loans and receivables and other financial liabilities loans and receivables and other financial liabilities are accounted for at amortized cost using the effective interest method of amortization. iv) available-for-sale available-for-sale assets are those assets that are not classified as held for trading, held-to-maturity or loans and receivables. available-for-sale instruments are recorded at fair value. any gains or losses arising from the change in fair value is recorded in oci and upon the sale of the instrument or other-than-temporary impairment, the cumulative gain or loss is transferred into earnings. the fund has not designated any financial instruments as available-for-sale. the methods used by the fund in determining the fair value of financial instruments are unchanged as a result of implementing the new standard. under this standard, all guarantees upon inception are required to be recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. no subsequent re-measurement is required to fair value each guarantee at each subsequent balance sheet date unless the guarantee is considered a derivative. Inventories the fund values its inventories at the lower of cost and market value. the fund uses the first-in first-out (fifo) method of determining the cost of inventory. Goodwill the fund must record goodwill relating to corporate acquisitions when the total purchase price exceeds the fair value for accounting purposes of the net identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired company. the goodwill balance is assessed for impairment annually at year-end or as events occur that could result in an impairment. impairment is recognized based on the fair value of the reporting entity compared to the book value of the reporting entity. if the fair value of the reporting entity is less than the book value, impairment is measured by allocating the fair value of [38] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND noteS to conSoliDateD financial StatementS the reporting entity to the identifiable assets and liabilities as if the reporting entity has been acquired in a business combination for a purchase price equal to its fair value. any excess of the book value of goodwill over the implied value of goodwill is the impairment amount. impairment is charged to earnings and is not tax affected, in the year in which it occurs. Goodwill is stated at cost less impairment and is not amortized. Amortization amortization is provided for on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of assets at the following annual rates: Land improvements Buildings Equipment Assets under capital lease Intangible Assets 4% 5% 10 — 20% 10 — 20% customer relationships and tradenames acquired during acquisitions are recorded at estimated fair value and will be amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five years. the value of non-compete agreements acquired was recorded at estimated fair value and will be amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the agreement. intangible assets are tested for impairment when conditions exist which may indicate that the estimated future net cash flows from the asset will be insufficient to cover its carrying value. Deferred Revenue deferred revenue consists of deposits and prepayments by customers for the purchase of product not yet delivered and not recorded as revenue by the fund. Income Taxes income earned directly by the limited partnership is not subject to income taxes as its income is taxed directly to the limited partnership unitholders. income earned in the fund and distributed to the fund unitholders is taxed directly to the fund unitholders. income taxes incurred by taxable entities controlled by the fund are accounted for using the future method. under this method, the fund recognizes a future tax liability whenever recovery or settlement of the carrying amount of an asset or liability would result in future income tax outflow. Similarly, the fund recognizes a future income tax asset whenever recovery or settlement of the carrying amount of an asset or liability would generate future income tax reductions. Asset Retirement Obligations the estimated future costs to remove underground fuel storage tanks at locations where the fund has a legal obligation to remove these tanks are recorded as asset retirement obligations at the time the tanks are installed. a corresponding increase to the carrying value of the fuel storage tanks is also recorded at installation. the fund recognizes accretion expense in connection with the discounted retirement obligations and amortization in connection with the increase in carrying value over the estimated remaining life of the respective underground fuel storage tanks. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [39] noteS to conSoliDateD financial StatementS Long-Term Debt capital lease obligations, which relate to transactions which are similar in nature to a purchase, are capitalized and included in long-term debt. Earnings Per unit Basic earnings per unit are calculated on the weighted average number of units outstanding for the period. diluted earnings per unit are calculated by application of the treasury Stock method. under this method, the diluted number of units are calculated based upon the weighted average number of units outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of the exercise of those employee options which were “in-the-money” during the period. Special distributions to unitholders in the form of additional units are recorded at the declaration date. the computation of earnings per unit for prior years are retroactively restated to reflect the change in units as a result of special distributions in the form of new units issued. Revenue the fund recognizes revenue on its sale of goods when title passes to the purchaser or when services are rendered. Grants of Options and Restricted units the fund accounts for its grants of options and restricted units in accordance with the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. Cash and Cash Equivalents cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments, such as money market deposits or similar type instruments, with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. 2.

Extendible Facility the extendible facility, including bank indebtedness and letters of credit, is a revolving extendible credit facility up to a maximum amount of $169 million and bears interest, payable monthly, at the bank’s prime lending rate plus 0.4 to 0.9 percent per annum. the extendible facility is subject to renewal on august 1, 2009 at which time it can be extended at the fund or lender’s option for 364 days. if the extendible facility is not extended, all amounts outstanding are repayable in twelve consecutive quarterly instalments, commencing on the last day of the third month following the then maturity date, with the first eleven of such instalments being one-twenty fifth of the outstanding balance and remainder at the end of the period. Security for the extendible facility is assignment of insurance and an unlimited guarantee from the secured entities. Capital Lease Obligations capital lease obligations are payable in monthly instalments totalling $24,283. a balloon payment of $85,000 for one of the leases is due at the end of 2009. the monthly instalments include interest varying from nil to 16.34 percent and prime plus 0.35 percent per annum. the effective rate of interest at year end for the prime based lease was 3.85 percent (2007 - 6.35 percent). the capital lease obligations are for land, buildings, and equipment with a net book value of $3,424,272 and mature at various dates ending September 2022. 9.

[44] 2008 Summary report PARKLAND INCOME FuND noteS to conSoliDateD financial StatementS assuming the fund continues operations at the refinery, remediation for any potential environmental liabilities associated with a complete dismantling of the site would be delayed indefinitely. the fund has estimated the discounted cost of remediation on the basis that operations continue and that remediation would be part of a multi year management plan. remediation costs have been estimated from independent engineering studies conducted in december 2007. the total undiscounted estimated future cash flows, to be incurred over an extended period after operations cease, are approximately $13.8 million net of salvage value of equipment and will be accreted. the costs are expected to be incurred between 2018 and 2027. the discount rate used to determine the present value of the future costs is 6.9 percent (2007 - 6.9 percent). 10. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS a reconciliation of the fund’s estimated liability for the removal of its underground storage tanks is as follows: Asset retirement obligations, beginning of year Additions (disposals) during the year Change in estimates Accretion expense Asset retirement obligations, end of year 2008 2,227 (104) 858 113 3,094 2007 1,140 70 956 61 2,227 the fund is liable for the environmental obligations related to the removal of its underground storage tanks at properties that it leases. the asset retirement obligation represents the present value estimate of the fund’s cost to remove these tanks. the total undiscounted estimated future cash flows required to settle the fund’s obligation increased to $4.0 million (2007 - $3.2 million), which primarily reflects the fund’s estimate of increased costs and inflation. discounting these incremental cash flows resulted in a $0.9 million increase in the asset retirement obligation at december 31, 2008. the costs are expected to be incurred between 2009 and 2019. the discount rate used to determine the present value of the future costs is 6.9 percent (2007 - 6.9 percent). 11. uNITHOLDERS’ CAPITAL an unlimited number of fund units and lp units may be created and issued, pursuant to the fund declaration of trust and the amended and restated limited partnership agreement, respectively, as outlined in the plan of arrangement. fund units represent an undivided interest in the fund. lp units represent a partnership interest in parkland Holdings limited partnership and are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis into fund units. Both fund unitholders and lp unitholders are entitled to vote at meetings of the fund and are entitled to distributions from time to time as determined by the Board of directors.

FInancIal InSTrumenTS and rISk manaGemenT Fair Values the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, tax payable, distributions payable, bank indebtedness, deferred revenue and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are equal to their carrying values due to their short term maturities. the fair value of the extendible facility and operating line of credit equal their carrying values as their interest rates fluctuate with the prime lending rate. the carrying values and fair values of mortgages payable, bank loans, capital lease obligations and mortgages and loans receivable are as follows: Mortgages payable Bank loans Capital lease obligations Mortgages and loans receivable 2008 2007 Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value — — 167 1,383 2,699 169 1,827 2,571 248 310 3,768 1,119 250 307 4,197 1,170 Fair value of mortgages payable, bank loans, mortgages and loans receivable and capital lease obligations are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based upon incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowing arrangements. the Fund does not have a significant credit exposure to any individual customer. the Fund reviews a new customer’s credit history before extending credit and conducts regular reviews of its existing customers’ credit performance. mortgages and loans receivable are receivable in monthly instalments of $75,334 (2007 - $38,310), bear interest at rates ranging between nil and 10.75 percent (2007 - nil and 11 percent) and are secured by specific assets of the mortgage. credit and market risk a substantial portion of the Fund’s accounts receivable balance is with customers in the oil and gas and forestry industries and is subject to normal industry credit risks. In light of the current market conditions, the Fund’s credit department has been expanded and policies strengthened to control the credit granting process. the Fund performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and outstanding debts are regularly monitored. at December 31, 2008, the provision for impairment of credit losses was $3.5 million. the Fund is exposed to market risk from changes in the Canadian prime interest rate which can impact its borrowing costs. the Fund purchases certain products in uS dollars and sells such products to its customers typically in Canadian dollars. as a result, fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the uS dollar can result in foreign exchange gains and losses. a 1.0 percent change to interest rates would have caused an increase or decrease to earnings by $0.7 million as at December 31, 2008. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [55] noteS to conSoliDateD financial StatementS Risk Management the fund manages its exposure to credit risk through rigorous credit granting procedures, typically short payment terms and security interests where applicable. the fund attempts to closely monitor financial conditions of its customers and the industries in which they operate. Liquidity Risk liquidity risk is the risk the fund will encounter difficulties in meeting its financial liability obligations. the fund manages its liquidity risk through cash and debt management. in managing liquidity risk, the fund has access to various credit products at competitive rates. as at december 31, 2008, the fund had available unused credit facilities in the amount of $12 million. the fund believes it has sufficient funding through the use of these facilities to meet foreseeable borrowing requirements. 22.

SEGMENTED INFORMATION the fund’s operations have been predominantly in fuel marketing and convenience store sales in western canada. With the acquisitions in 2007 and 2008, the fund now sells propane, fertilizer, lubes, other agricultural inputs and industrial products and services. the fund’s operating segments have been adjusted to reflect these changes. fuel marketing includes sales of gasoline, diesel, heating oil, propane fuel and variable rents derived from service station sites. convenience Store merchandise continues to include the operations of the fund owned and operated convenience stores that are integrated into fuel marketing sites and bear common operating costs. commercial includes sales of fertilizer, lubes, other agricultural inputs and industrial products and services. due to the amount of common operating and property costs it is not practical to report these segments below their respective gross profits. the segregation of capital expenditures and total assets is not practical as the reportable segments represent product sales that are generated from common locations.

RECENT ACCOuNTING PRONOuNCEMENTS International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) the canadian accounting Standards Board (“acSB”) has adopted a strategy to apply ifrS to publicly accountable enterprises in the future. in may 2007, the acSB published an updated version of its “implementation plan for incorporating international financial reporting Standards into canadian Gaap”. this plan includes an outline of the key decisions that the acSB will need to make as it implements the Strategic plan for publicly accountable enterprises. one step in the implementation plan is for the acSB to conduct a progress review to determine if the changeover date to ifrS for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011 continues to be appropriate. the acSB has commenced these activities and published its initial plan “progress review - Steps to ifrS incorporation into canadian Gaap” in July 2007. PARKLAND INCOME FuND 2008 Summary report [57] noteS to conSoliDateD financial StatementS on february 13, 2008, the acSB confirmed the transition date of January 1, 2011. the transition date of January 1, 2011, will require the fund to restate for comparative purposes amounts reported for the year ended december 31, 2010. the fund is still investigating the impact of the adoption of ifrS on its financial statements.
