Pengrowth’s property portfolio is one of the strongest in the energy trust sector with a proved plus probable reserve life index of 10.5 years and a reserve base of 219.4 million barrels of oil equivalent.

Pengrowth Energy Trust Announces
Consolidation of Trust Unit Capital
(Calgary, June 23, 2006) — Pengrowth Corporation, Administrator of Pengrowth Energy Trust, today announced that the proposed consolidation of Pengrowth’s Class A trust units and Class B trust units into a single class of trust units (“Trust Units”) was approved by in excess of 98% of the votes tendered in person or by proxy at the special and annual meetings conducted on June 23, 2006. The consolidation will become effective as follows:
    effective as of 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on June 27, 2006:
  -   the restriction on the Class B trust units that they may only be held by residents of Canada will be eliminated; and
    effective as of 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on July 27, 2006:
  -   the Class A trust units will be delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange (effective as of the close of markets);
  -   the Class B trust units will be renamed as “Trust Units” and their trading symbol on the Toronto Stock Exchange will be changed to “PGF.UN”;
  -   all of the issued and outstanding Class A trust units will be converted into Trust Units on the basis of one Trust Unit for each whole Class A Trust Unit previously held (with the exception of Class A trust units held by residents of Canada who have provided a residency declaration to Pengrowth’s Registrar and Transfer Agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada); and
  -   the Trust Units will be substitutionally listed in place of the Class A trust units on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “PGH” (subject to the approval of the NYSE).
      The conversion of Class A trust units held by residents of Canada into Trust Units pursuant to the consolidation will constitute a taxable disposition. Holders of Class A trust units who are residents of Canada and do not wish to have their Class A trust units converted into Trust Units must deliver a completed “Election to Retain Class A Units and Declaration of Canadian Residency” to Computershare at the address specified therein no later than 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on July 25, 2006 in order to retain their Class A trust units. Holders of

      Class A trust units who are considering filing the election are cautioned that following the consolidation, the Class A trust units will not be listed on any stock exchange and will not be transferable. Following the consolidation, for a holder to transfer their Class A trust units they must first convert such Class A trust units into Trust Units. The Class A trust units that remain following the consolidation may be converted into Trust Units at any time by providing a written conversion form to Computershare which will result in a taxable disposition for the holder at the time of conversion. Holders of Class A trust units will continue to receive all distributions paid by Pengrowth.
      All Class A trust units for which an Election to Retain Class A Units and Declaration of Canadian Residency is not delivered to Computershare before 5:00 p.m. on July 25, 2006 will, without further act or formality, be automatically converted into Trust Units at 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on July 27, 2006. Holders of Class A trust units who wish to exchange the certificates representing their Class A trust units for certificates representing the “Trust Units” they are entitled to pursuant to the consolidation must complete a letter of transmittal and deliver it to Computershare at the address specified therein together with the certificates representing their Class A trust units.
      The form of “Election to Retain Class A Units and Declaration of Canadian Residency” and the form of letter of transmittal will be mailed by Pengrowth to all registered Class A trust unitholders.
      Beneficial holders of Class A trust units who wish to receive Trust Units are not required to take any action and will automatically receive the Trust Units to which they are entitled. Beneficial holders of Class A trust units who are residents of Canada and who wish to retain their Class A trust units rather than having them automatically converted to Trust Units should contact their broker or other intermediary.

Although management considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect.
By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks that predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on these statements as a number of important factors could cause the actual results to differ materially from the beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations and anticipations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements.
