TC Energy announces closing of US$350 million Junior Subordinated Notes Offering by TransCanada PipeLines Limited and redemption of Cumulative Redeemable First Preferred Shares, Series 11

CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- News Release – TC Energy Corporation (TSX, NYSE: TRP) (TC Energy or the Company) today announced that TransCanada PipeLines Limited (TCPL) has closed an offering of US$350 million of 6.250 per cent Fixed-for-Life Junior Subordinated Notes due Nov. 1, 2085 (Notes). The Notes were offered through a syndicate of underwriters, co-led by Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC.

As previously announced, the Company intends to use the net proceeds to redeem (Redemption) its issued and outstanding Cumulative Redeemable First Preferred Shares, Series 11 (Series 11 Shares) (TSX:TRP.PR.G) on Nov. 28, 2025 (Redemption Date) at a price equal to $25.00 per share (Redemption Price), to reduce indebtedness as well as for general corporate purposes. The Company provided notice of the Redemption today to the sole registered holder of the Series 11 Shares in accordance with their terms.

Subject to board approval, the Company expects to declare a final quarterly dividend of $0.2094375 per Series 11 Share, for the period up to but excluding Nov. 28, 2025, payable on Nov. 28, 2025 to shareholders of record on Nov. 17, 2025. This would be the final dividend on the Series 11 Shares and, as the Redemption Date is also a dividend payment date, the Redemption Price will not include any accrued and unpaid dividends. Subsequent to the Redemption Date, the Series 11 Shares will cease to be entitled to dividends and will be delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Non-registered holders of Series 11 Shares should contact their broker or other intermediary for information regarding the redemption process for the Series 11 Shares in which they hold a beneficial interest.

The Notes were issued by way of a prospectus supplement dated Oct. 6, 2025 to TCPL’s short form base shelf prospectus dated Dec. 5, 2024 (collectively, the Prospectus) included in its registration statement on Form F-10 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes. The Notes have not been approved or disapproved by any regulatory authority in Canada or the United States, nor has any authority passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of the Prospectus. The Notes were not offered in Canada or to any resident of Canada.
