<div><b>Page Content:</b> <h2>Adjusted EPS, excluding a significant tax item, was C$1.88</h2>
<p>Canadian Pacific Railway Limited (TSX: CP) (NYSE: CP) today announced record quarterly earnings and its lowest operating ratio in company history.</p>
<p>Adjusted EPS of $1.88 grew 45 per cent over third-quarter 2012, while third-quarter operating ratio was 65.9 per cent, an 820 basis point improvement over third-quarter 2012.</p>
<p>"By all standards, this was an outstanding quarter," said E. Hunter Harrison, Chief Executive Officer. "The company's focus on service execution while controlling costs is a testament to our team of dedicated, hardworking railroaders."* <br>"What we have proven this quarter is the ability to drive earnings growth and lower our operating ratio, even in a softer volume environment.* That's the power of the CP plan," added Harrison.</p>
<h3>THIRD-QUARTER 2013 HIGHLIGHTS:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Total revenues were $1.5 billion; an increase of 6 per cent and an all-time quarterly record</li>
<li>*Operating expenses were $1 billion; a decrease of 6 per cent</li>
<li>Reported net income in the third quarter was $324 million; an increase of 45 per cent </li>
<li>Adjusted net income, excluding a significant tax item of $7 million, was $331 million; an increase of 48 per cent</li>
<li>Free cash totaled $318 million for the first nine months of 2013, compared with free cash of $21 million in the comparable period of 2012</li></ul>
<p>"We enter the fourth quarter with momentum and are well positioned for what I believe will be a record 2013," said Harrison. "CP’s transformational journey is clearly ahead of plan, yet far from complete; we will continue to make this franchise stronger, creating even more value for customers and shareholders.”</p>

<h3>Non-GAAP Measures</h3>
<p>We present non-GAAP measures and cash flow information to provide a basis for evaluating underlying earnings and liquidity trends in our business that can be compared with the results of our operations in prior periods. These non-GAAP measures exclude significant items that are not among our normal ongoing revenues and operating expenses. They have no standardized meaning and are not defined by GAAP and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. </p>
<p>Income, excluding significant items, also referred to as Adjusted net income, provides management with a measure of income that allows a multi-period assessment of long-term profitability and also allows management and other external users of our consolidated financial statements to compare profitability on a long-term basis with that of our peers. Diluted earnings per share, excluding significant items, also referred to as Adjusted EPS, provides the same information on a per share basis.</p>
<p>Free cash is used by management to provide information with respect to the relationship between cash provided by operating activities and investment decisions and provides a comparable measure for period to period changes.</p>
<p>For further information regarding non-GAAP measures, including reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measures, see our 2012 annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis or the document Non-GAAP Measures on our web site at www.cpr.ca.</p>
