CALGARY, July 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Pembina Pipeline
Corporation ("Pembina" or the "Company") (TSX: PPL; NYSE: PBA)
announced today that its Board of Directors declared a common share
cash dividend for July 2018 of
$0.19 per share to be paid, subject
to applicable law, on August 15, 2018
to shareholders of record on July 25,
2018. This dividend is designated an "eligible dividend" for
Canadian income tax purposes. For non-resident shareholders,
Pembina's common share dividends should be considered "qualified
dividends" and may be subject to Canadian withholding tax.
For shareholders receiving their common share dividends in U.S.
funds, the July 2018 cash dividend is
expected to be approximately U.S. $0.1446 per share (before deduction of any
applicable Canadian withholding tax) based on a currency exchange
rate of 0.7609. The actual U.S. dollar dividend will depend on the
Canadian/U.S. dollar exchange rate on the payment date and will be
subject to applicable withholding taxes.
Pembina pays cash dividends on its common shares in Canadian
dollars on a monthly basis to shareholders of record on the 25th
calendar day of each month (except for the December record date,
which is December 31st), if, as and
when determined by the Board of Directors. Should the record date
fall on a weekend or a statutory holiday, the effective record date
will be the previous business day. The dividend payment date is the
15th of the month following the record date. Should the payment
date fall on a weekend or on a holiday the business day prior to
the weekend or holiday becomes the payment date.

for the Company's preferred shares, Series 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13,
15, 17, 19 and 21. Series 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 21 preferred
