(1) EBITDA, distributable cash per unit and distributions per unit are
not recognized measures under generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed
by GAAP. Therefore, these amounts may not be comparable to similar
measures presented by other issuers. Management considers EBITDA and
distributable cash to be key measures that indicate the ability of
the Fund to meet its capital and financing commitments.
(2) Distributable cash available will fluctuate on a monthly basis due to
seasonal cash flows, sustaining capital incurred, income taxes, and
interest paid. See "Distributable Cash" for additional commentary.
Trimac's revenue, including fuel surcharges, for the three-month period ended
Divisional results in the second quarter were as follows:
- Excluding revenue from fuel surcharges, western division
transportation revenue declined by $7.0 million or 17.5 percent and
EBITDA decreased by $1.6 million or 24.2 percent over the prior
period.
- Excluding revenue from fuel surcharges, eastern division
transportation revenue decreased by $0.8 million or 3.3 percent,
however, EBITDA improved by $0.2 million or 10.5 percent over the
prior period.
- Bulk Plus Logistics revenue decreased by $1.4 million or
30.4 percent. EBITDA decreased by $0.2 million or 25.0 percent as
compared to the prior period.

The above selected financial and operating information has been derived
from, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements of the Partnership.
(1) EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization) is not a recognized measure under GAAP, does not have a
standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, may not be
comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management
believes that EBITDA is a useful complementary measure of cash
available for distribution before debt servicing expense, capital
expenditures and income taxes.
(2) Direct costs, selling and administrative and depreciation, expressed
as a percentage of revenue, were impacted by significant fluctuations
in fuel surcharge revenue between the prior and current period and
the prior and current year. For additional commentary regarding these
expenses please see page 8 and 9 of Trimac's Management's Discussion
and Analysis for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.

(1) Changes in non-cash operating assets and liabilities are not included
in the calculation of distributable cash. Working capital investments
are funded through a combination of cash flow not distributed and the
use of credit facilities available to the Partnership.
(2) Distributable cash from operations, sustaining capital expenditures,
net sustaining capital expenditures, payout ratio, and growth capital
expenditures are not measures recognized by GAAP, do not have
standardized meanings prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to
similarly named measures presented by other issuers.
(3) Net sustaining capital expenditures refers to capital expenditures,
net of proceeds on disposal of assets replaced, which are necessary
to sustain current revenue levels. See "Liquidity and Capital
Resources - Capital Expenditures".
(4) Represents a provision for cash requirements relating to a long-term
incentive plan and an executive pension liability.
(5) Percentage is equal to weighted average number of units outstanding
of 12,584,679 divided by fully diluted units of 25,532,452.
(6) Represents expenses associated with the Fund's status as a reporting
issuer.
(7) Distributable cash available will fluctuate on a monthly basis due to
seasonal cash flows, sustaining capital expenditures incurred, income
taxes paid and interest costs on outstanding debt.
(8) Cash used to fund growth capital expenditures does not affect
distributable cash to unitholders where financing is available for
these purposes. The Partnership funds growth capital from
undistributed cash from operations, cash available from distributions
on non-cash exchangeable shares and, to the extent available,
existing lines of credit.
(9) Effective January 2009, the monthly distribution per unit was reduced
from $0.0771 to $0.04.
During the current period the Partnership's cash provided by operations decreased by
Distributions in the current period were paid using cash generated from operations including cash retained in the business relating to non-cash exchangeable shares. Due to the seasonal nature of the Partnership's business and the timing of sustaining capital purchases, the amount of distributable cash may vary from quarter to quarter. Trimac's Board of Directors approves the level of monthly distributions based upon estimated cash flow on an annual basis, less estimated cash required for debt service, cash taxes, other amounts (including sustaining capital expenditures, working capital and provisions) to stabilize the monthly amount of distributions to unitholders as may be considered appropriate by the Board of Directors. Growth capital expenditures are funded from undistributed cash from operations, cash available from notional distributions on non-cash exchangeable shares, and, to the extent available, cash and existing lines of credit.
Distributable cash from operations is not a defined term under GAAP but is determined by the Partnership as net cash provided by operations for the period, adjusted to remove specific non-cash items, including changes in working capital, and reduced by sustaining capital expenditures, provisions for funding long-term liabilities, provisions for committed capital purchases in progress and public costs.
Management believes that distributable cash from operations is a useful supplemental measure of performance as it provides investors with an indication of the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders. Investors are cautioned, however, that distributable cash from operations should not be construed as an alternative to using net income as a measure of profitability or as an alternative to the statement of cash flows. In addition, the Fund's method of calculating distributable cash from operations may not be comparable to calculations used by other issuers.
