Inter Pipeline Fund Announces October 2009 Cash Distribution

Inter Pipeline Fund (Inter Pipeline) (TSX:IPL.UN) announced today the declaration of a cash distribution of $0.07 per unit for October 2009. This distribution will be paid on or about November 16th to unitholders of record on October 22nd, 2009.

Inter Pipeline believes it is well positioned to maintain its current level of cash distributions to unitholders through 2011 and beyond, despite becoming a taxable entity. This view is based on Inter Pipeline's continuing strong financial performance, attractive fundamentals in each of its business segments and the expected increase in cash flow following completion of the Corridor expansion project and other organic projects announced recently.
