Basis The proposed development complex by Argyle Development Inc. consists of office towers, a hotel, retail shops and underground parking as well as a convention centre.

It is referred to, in its entirety and for the purposes of this Statement of Provincial Interest, as the “Nova Centre”. All levels of government have an interest in the development of the convention centre and as a consequence have an interest in the construction of the Nova Centre (of which the convention centre forms part). The Governor in Council is satisfied that the adoption of a statement of provincial interest is necessary to protect the provincial interest in promoting economic growth and employment opportunities through the timely development of the Nova Centre.

Application The area bounded by Argyle, Sackville, Market and Prince Streets in Halifax Regional Municipality. Provisions The planning documents of Halifax Regional Municipality must contain specific policies and regulation for the timely development and construction of the subgrade portion of the Nova Centre. 758 © NS Registry of Regulations.

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Order NSUARB-GAS-W-13-31 In the Matter of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act - and - In the Matter of Prescribing Prices for Petroleum Products pursuant to

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Before: Roland A. Deveau, Q.C., Vice-Chair Order

Whereas the purpose of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations is to ensure just and reasonable prices for specified petroleum products taking into consideration the objectives of preserving the availability of such products in rural areas, stabilizing prices of such products and minimizing the variances in prices of such products across the Province; And

whereas the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (“Board”) considered the manner in which it would proceed to set petroleum prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006; And

whereas the Board revised the retail margin and transportation allowance effective January 6, 2012, in its decision, 2011 NSUARB 181, issued on November 23, 2011; And

whereas the Board revised the wholesale margin effective January 4, 2013, in its decision 2012 NSUARB 213, issued on December 12, 2012; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended July 31, 2013, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 79.7¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 81.2¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 79.7¢ per litre Grade 2 82.7¢ per litre Grade 3 85.7¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 81.2¢ per litre And

now therefore the Board has determined, based on historical data regarding price changes and to achieve revenue neutrality, it is appropriate to apply, and the Board so orders, forward averaging corrections of: Gasoline: plus 0.5¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil: plus 0.6¢ per litre And

now therefore the Board prescribes the prices for petroleum products as set forth in

N.S. Reg. 279/2013 Royal Gazette

Part II - Regulations Vol. 37, No. 17 N.S. Reg. 279/2013 Made: August 8, 2013 Filed: August 12, 2013 Prescribed Petroleum Products Prices Order dated August 8, 2013 made by the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board pursuant to

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Order NSUARB-GAS-W-13-32 In the Matter of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act - and - In the Matter of Prescribing Prices for Petroleum Products pursuant to

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Before: Roberta J. Clarke, Q.C., Member Order

Whereas the purpose of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations is to ensure just and reasonable prices for specified petroleum products taking into consideration the objectives of preserving the availability of such products in rural areas, stabilizing prices of such products and minimizing the variances in prices of such products across the Province; And

whereas the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (“Board”) considered the manner in which it would proceed to set petroleum prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006; And

whereas the Board revised the retail margin and transportation allowance effective January 6, 2012, in its decision, 2011 NSUARB 181, issued on November 23, 2011; And

whereas the Board revised the wholesale margin effective January 4, 2013, in its decision 2012 NSUARB 213, issued on December 12, 2012; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended August 7, 2013, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 79.5¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 82.2¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 79.5¢ per litre Grade 2 82.5¢ per litre Grade 3 85.5¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 82.2¢ per litre And

now therefore the Board has determined, based on historical data regarding price changes and to achieve revenue neutrality, it is appropriate to apply, and the Board so orders, forward averaging corrections of: Gasoline: nil Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil: minus 0.3¢ per litre And

now therefore the Board prescribes the prices for petroleum products as set forth in
