The specific terms of any offering of Securities will be set forth in one or more shelf prospectus supplements (each, a "Prospectus Supplement") including, where applicable: (i) in the case of Common Shares, the number of shares offered and the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis); (ii) in the case of Preferred Shares, the designation of the particular series, the number of shares offered, the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis), any voting rights, any rights to receive dividends, any terms of redemption, any conversion or exchange rights and any other specific terms; and (iii) in the case of Subscription Receipts, the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis), the procedures for the exchange of the Subscription Receipts for Common Shares or Preferred Shares, as the case may be, and any other specific terms. A Prospectus Supplement may include other terms pertaining to the Securities that are not prohibited by the parameters set forth in this prospectus.

All shelf information permitted under applicable laws to be omitted from this prospectus will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered to purchasers together with this prospectus. Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which the Prospectus Supplement pertains.

The issued and outstanding Common Shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "TRP".

There is no market through which the Preferred Shares or Subscription Receipts which may be offered under this prospectus may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell any Preferred Shares or Subscription Receipts purchased under this prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the securities, and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors" as well as the "Risk Factors" section of the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

The Corporation may sell the Securities to or through underwriters purchasing as principals and may also sell the Securities to one or more purchasers directly or through agents. See "Plan of Distribution". The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter or agent, as the case may be, engaged by TCC in connection with the offering and sale of Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including the method of distribution of such Securities, the public offering price, the proceeds to TCC, any fees, discounts or other compensation payable to underwriters or agents, and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or fixed prices, or at non-fixed prices. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers at the time of sale, which prices may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution. If Securities are offered on a non-fixed price basis, the underwriters' compensation will be increased or decreased by the amount by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers exceeds or is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters to TCC. See "Plan of Distribution".

In connection with any offering of Securities, the underwriters or agents may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities at a level above that which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. See "Plan of Distribution".

TCC's head office and registered office is located at 450 – 1 Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 5H1.

Table of Contents

information that is aligned with how decisions about business segments are made and how performance is assessed. We also have a non-operational Corporate segment consisting of corporate and administrative functions that provide governance and other support to our operational business segments.

Our principal subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017 are indicated in the diagram under the heading "TransCanada Corporation — Intercorporate Relationships" in the Annual Information Form.

CONSOLIDATED CAPITALIZATION

Other than (i) the issuance of U.S.$400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.250% Senior Notes due 2028 and U.S.$1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.100% Senior Notes due 2049, by TCPL on October 12, 2018 (the "October Notes"), (ii) the issuance of 177,989 Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of options granted pursuant to the Corporation's stock option plans for aggregate gross proceeds of $7 million, and (iii) the issuance of 4,380,339 Common Shares under the Corporation's Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan ("DRIP") for aggregate gross proceeds of $214 million, there have been no material changes in the share and loan capital of the Corporation, on a consolidated basis, since September 30, 2018.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise indicated in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities, we intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of Securities to reduce or repay indebtedness and/or to, directly or indirectly, finance our long-term investment program. Specific information about the use of net proceeds will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. We may invest funds which we do not immediately require in short-term marketable investment grade securities. We may, from time to time, issue securities (including debt securities) other than pursuant to this prospectus.

EARNINGS COVERAGE

The earnings coverage ratios set out below do not purport to be indicative of earnings coverage ratios for any future periods. These coverage ratios do not give effect to the issuance of Securities that may be issued pursuant to this prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement, since the amounts and the terms of such securities are not presently known.

Table of Contents

Period Ended December 31, 2017

The following financial ratios have been calculated on a consolidated basis for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2017 and are based on audited and unaudited financial information. The following financial ratios give pro forma effect to the following: the issuance of U.S.$1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.250% Senior Notes due 2028, U.S.$500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.750% Senior Notes due 2038 and U.S.$1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2048, by TCPL on May 7, 2018; the issuance of $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.39% medium term note debentures due 2028 and $800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.18% medium term note debentures due 2048, by TCPL on July 3, 2018; and the October Notes (such adjustments, collectively the "Post-December 31, 2017 Adjustments"). Adjustments for other normal course issuances and repayments of long-term debt subsequent to December 31, 2017 would not materially affect the ratios and, as a result, have not been made.

		December 31, 2017

Earnings coverage on long-term debt, current liabilities and First Preferred Shares		2.0 times ⁽¹⁾⁽⁵⁾
Supplemental coverage ratio: earnings coverage on long-term debt, current liabilities and First Preferred Shares, excluding the non-cash impairment charge and net gain on sale of assets at December 31, 2017		2.2 times ^(2)(3)(4)

(1): The Corporation's interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the 12-months ended December 31, 2017 after giving pro forma effect to the Post-December 31, 2017 Adjustments amounted to approximately $2.540 billion. The Corporation's earnings before interest expense and income tax for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2017 were approximately $4.964 billion, which is 2.0 times such pro forma interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the period.
(2): Excludes the non-cash impairment charge during the 12-months ended December 31, 2017 of $1.256 billion and net gain on sale of assets during the 12-months ended December 31, 2017 of $0.611 billion (pre-tax). This supplemental coverage ratio is therefore based on a financial measure that is a non-GAAP financial measure and does not have the standardized meaning of "earnings" as prescribed by Form 44-101F1 — Short Form Prospectus ("44-101F1") and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. This measure should not be construed as an alternative to the prescribed ratios based off of "earnings" as defined in 44-101F1.
(3): The Corporation's interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the 12-months ended December 31, 2017 after giving pro forma effect to the Post-December 31, 2017 Adjustments amounted to approximately $2.539 billion. The Corporation's earnings before interest expense and income tax for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2017, excluding the impairment charge and net gain on sale of assets at December 31, 2017, were approximately $5.609 billion, which is 2.2 times such pro forma interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the period.

Period Ended September 30, 2018

The following financial ratios have been calculated on a consolidated basis for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2018 and are based on audited and unaudited financial information. The following financial ratios give pro forma effect to the October Notes (the "Post-September 30, 2018 Adjustment"). Adjustments for other normal course issuances and repayments of long-term debt subsequent to September 30, 2018 would not materially affect the ratios and, as a result, have not been made.

		September 30, 2018

Earnings coverage on long-term debt, current liabilities and First Preferred Shares		2.0 times ⁽¹⁾⁽⁵⁾
Supplemental coverage ratio: earnings coverage on long-term debt, current liabilities and First Preferred Shares, excluding the non-cash impairment charge and net gain on sale of assets at September 30, 2018		2.4 times ^(2)(3)(4)

(1): The Corporation's interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the 12-months ended September 30, 2018 after giving pro forma effect to the Post-September 30, 2018 Adjustment amounted to approximately $2.533 billion. The Corporation's earnings before interest expense and income tax for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2018 were approximately $5.085 billion, which is 2.0 times such pro forma interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the period.
(2): Excludes the non-cash impairment charge during the 12-months ended September 30, 2018 of $1.256 billion and net gain on sale of assets during the 12-months ended September 30, 2018 of $0.142 billion (pre-tax). This supplemental coverage ratio is therefore based on a financial measure that is a non-GAAP financial measure and does not have the standardized meaning of "earnings" as prescribed by 44-101F1 and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. This measure should not be construed as an alternative to the prescribed ratios based off of "earnings" as defined in 44-101F1.
(3): The Corporation's interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the 12-months ended September 30, 2018 after giving pro forma effect to the Post-September 30, 2018 Adjustment amounted to approximately $2.530 billion. The Corporation's earnings before interest expense and income tax for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2018, excluding the impairment charge and net gain on sale of assets at September 30, 2018, were approximately $6.199 billion, which is 2.4 times such pro forma interest and First Preferred Share dividend requirements for the period

DESCRIPTION OF THE SECURITIES BEING DISTRIBUTED

We are authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares, of which approximately 913.5 million were issued and outstanding as of December 21, 2018; an unlimited number of First Preferred Shares, issuable in series, of which 9,498,423 Series 1 Shares, 12,501,577 Series 2 Shares, 8,533,405 Series 3 Shares, 5,466,595 Series 4 Shares, 12,714,261 Series 5 Shares, 1,285,739 Series 6 Shares, 24 million Series 7 Shares, 18 million Series 9 Shares, 10 million Series 11 Shares, 20 million Series 13 Shares and 40 million Series 15 Shares were outstanding as of December 21, 2018; and an unlimited number of Second Preferred Shares, issuable in series, of which none were outstanding as of December 21, 2018. No Subscription Receipts were issued and outstanding as of December 21, 2018.

The following description of each of the Common Shares, First Preferred Shares, Second Preferred Shares and Subscription Receipts is a summary of certain of their material attributes and characteristics. The terms and conditions set forth in this section will apply, as applicable, to each Common Share, First Preferred Share, Second Preferred Share and Subscription Receipt unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

Common Shares

The Common Shares entitle the holders thereof to one vote per share at all meetings of shareholders, except meetings at which only holders of another specified class of shares are entitled to vote, and, subject to the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Preferred Shares, whether as a class or a series, and to any other class or series of shares of TCC which rank prior to the Common Shares, entitle the holders thereof to receive: (i) dividends if, as and when declared by the board of directors of TCC out of the assets of TCC properly applicable to the payment of the dividends in such amount and payable at such times and at such place or places as the board of directors of TCC may from time to time determine; and (ii) the remaining property of TCC upon a dissolution.

The Corporation has a shareholders' rights plan (the "Rights Plan") that is designed to encourage the fair treatment of shareholders in connection with any takeover bid for the Corporation. Rights issued under the Rights Plan become exercisable when a person (subject to certain exceptions), and any related parties, acquires or announces the intention to acquire 20% or more of the Corporation's outstanding Common Shares without complying with certain provisions set out in the Rights Plan or without approval of the board of directors of the Corporation. Should such an acquisition occur, each rights holder, other than the acquiring person and related parties, will have the right to purchase Common Shares essentially at a 50% discount to the market price at that time. For further particulars, reference should be made to the Rights Plan, a copy of which may be obtained on request without charge from the Corporate Secretary of TCC, 450 - 1 Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 5H1 (telephone (403) 920-2000).

First Preferred Shares

Subject to certain limitations, the board of directors of TCC may, at any time, and from time to time, issue First Preferred Shares in one or more series and determine for any such series, its designation, number of shares and respective rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions. The First Preferred Shares, as a class, have, among others, provisions to the effect set forth below.

The First Preferred Shares of each series shall rank on a parity with the First Preferred Shares of every other series, and shall be entitled to preference over the Common Shares, the Second Preferred Shares and any other shares ranking junior to the First Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends, the repayment of capital and the distribution of the assets of TCC in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of TCC or any other distribution of the assets of the Corporation

among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs, and may also be given such other preferences not inconsistent with the provisions of the Articles of TCC.

Except as provided by the Canada Business Corporations Act or as referred to below, the holders of the First Preferred Shares will not have any voting rights nor will they be entitled to receive notice of or to attend shareholders' meetings. The holders of any particular series of First Preferred Shares will, if the directors of TCC so determine prior to the issuance of such series, be entitled to such voting rights as may be determined by the directors if TCC fails to pay dividends on that series of First Preferred Shares for any period as may be so determined by the directors.

Subject to the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act and any provisions relating to any particular series, TCC, upon giving proper notice, may redeem out of capital or otherwise at any time, or from time to time, the whole or any part of the then outstanding First Preferred Shares of any one or more series on payment for each such First Preferred Share of such price or prices as may be applicable to such series. Subject to the foregoing, in case a part only of the then outstanding First Preferred Shares of any particular series is at any time redeemed, the shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot in such manner as the directors or the transfer agent for the First Preferred Shares, if any, decide, or if the directors so determine, may be redeemed pro rata disregarding fractions.

The provisions attaching to the First Preferred Shares as a class may be modified, amended or varied only with the approval of the holders of the First Preferred Shares as a class. Any such approval to be given by the holders of the First Preferred Shares may be given by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than 66 ² / 3 per cent of the First Preferred Shares represented and voted at a meeting or adjourned meeting of such holders.

Second Preferred Shares

The rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Second Preferred Shares are substantially identical to those attaching to the First Preferred Shares, except that the Second Preferred Shares are junior to the First Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends, repayment of capital and the distribution of the assets of TCC in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of TCC.

Subscription Receipts

The Subscription Receipts may be offered separately or together with the Common Shares, First Preferred Shares or Second Preferred Shares, as the case may be. The Subscription Receipts will be issued under a subscription receipt agreement that will be entered into by the Corporation at the time of issuance of the Subscription Receipts.

The applicable Prospectus Supplement will include details of the subscription receipt agreement covering the Subscription Receipts being offered. The specific terms of the Subscription Receipts, and the extent to which the general terms described in this section apply to those Subscription Receipts, will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. A copy of the subscription receipt agreement will be filed by the Corporation with securities regulatory authorities in Canada after it has been entered into by the Corporation.

The particular terms of each issue of Subscription Receipts that will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement will include, where applicable:

•: the number of Subscription Receipts;
•: the price at which the Subscription Receipts will be offered;

Table of Contents

•: the procedures for the exchange of the Subscription Receipts into Common Shares, First Preferred Shares or Second Preferred Shares, as the case may be;
•: the number of Common Shares, First Preferred Shares or Second Preferred Shares, as the case may be, that may be exchanged upon exercise of each Subscription Receipt;
•: the designation and terms of any other Securities with which the Subscription Receipts will be offered, if any, and the number of Subscription Receipts that will be offered with each Security;
•: terms relating to the holding and release or return of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts plus any interest earned thereon;
•: material income tax consequences of owning the Subscription Receipts; and
•: any other material terms and conditions of the Subscription Receipts.

Pursuant to the Subscription Receipt agreement, original purchasers of Subscription Receipts will have a contractual right of rescission against the Corporation, following the issuance of the underlying Common Shares or other securities to such purchasers, upon the surrender or deemed surrender of the Subscription Receipts, to receive the amount paid for the Subscription Receipts in the event that the applicable Prospectus Supplement and any amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation or is not delivered to such purchaser, provided such remedy for rescission is exercised within 180 days from the closing date of the offering of Subscription Receipts.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may offer and sell the Securities: (i) through underwriters purchasing as principals; (ii) directly to one or more purchasers in accordance with applicable securities laws; or (iii) through agents. Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or fixed prices, or at non-fixed prices. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers at the time of sale, which prices may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution. If Securities are offered on a non-fixed price basis, the underwriters' compensation will be increased or decreased by the amount by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers exceeds or is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters or agents to us.

The Prospectus Supplement relating to each offering of Securities will identify each underwriter or agent, as the case may be, and will also set forth the terms of that offering, including the type of Security being offered, the purchase price of such Security, the proceeds to the Corporation, any underwriters' or agents' fees, commissions or other items constituting underwriters' or agents' compensation, the public offering price, and any concessions or discounts allowed or re-allowed or paid by any underwriters to others. Only underwriters or agents so named in the Prospectus Supplement are deemed to be underwriters or agents, as the case may be, in connection with the Securities offered thereby.

If underwriters purchase Securities as principal, the Securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase those Securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the Securities offered by the Prospectus Supplement if any of such Securities are purchased. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid may be changed from time to time.

Table of Contents

The Securities may also be sold directly by us in accordance with applicable securities laws at prices and upon terms agreed to by the purchaser and us or through agents designated by us from time to time. Any agent involved in the offering and sale of the Securities pursuant to a particular Prospectus Supplement will be named, and any commissions payable by us to that agent will be set forth, in such Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement, any agent would be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

In connection with the sale of the Securities, underwriters may receive compensation from us in the form of commissions, concessions or discounts. Any such commissions may be paid out of our general funds or the proceeds of the sale of the Securities. Under agreements which may be entered into by us, underwriters and agents who participate in the distribution of Securities may be entitled to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Those underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.

Any offering of Preferred Shares or Subscription Receipts will be a new issue of Securities with no established trading market. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Preferred Shares or Subscription Receipts will not be listed on any stock exchange. Certain dealers may make a market in such Securities, but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given that any dealer will make a market in such Securities or as to the liquidity of the trading market, if any, for such Securities.

The applicable Prospectus Supplement will set forth the intention of any underwriters or agents who participate in the distribution of the Securities to over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the Security's price at a higher level than that which might exist in the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time without notice.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

We are a corporation incorporated under and governed by the Canada Business Corporations Act . Some of our directors and officers, and some of the experts named in this prospectus, are residents of Canada or otherwise reside outside the U.S., and all or a substantial portion of their assets, and a substantial portion of the Corporation's assets which are held through subsidiaries, are located outside the U.S. We have appointed an agent for service of process in the U.S., but it may be difficult for holders of Securities who reside in the U.S. to effect service within the U.S. upon those directors, officers and experts who are not residents of the U.S. It may also be difficult for holders of Securities who reside in the U.S. to realize in the U.S. upon judgments of courts of the U.S. predicated upon the Corporation's civil liability and the civil liability of the directors and officers of the Corporation and experts under U.S. federal securities laws.

We have been advised by our Canadian counsel, Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, that a judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon civil liability under U.S. federal securities laws would probably be enforceable in Canada if the U.S. court in which the judgment was obtained has a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that would be recognized by a Canadian court for the same purposes. We have also been advised by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, however, that there is real doubt whether an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon U.S. federal securities laws.

We have filed with the SEC, concurrently with our registration statement on Form F-10, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, we appointed TransCanada Pipeline USA Ltd. as our agent for service of process in the U.S. in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against or involving us in a U.S. court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of Securities under this prospectus.

CERTAIN INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The applicable Prospectus Supplement will describe certain material Canadian federal income tax consequences to an investor who is a resident of Canada or who is a non-resident of Canada of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of any Securities offered thereunder, including whether the payment of dividends will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax.

The applicable Prospectus Supplement will also describe certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of any Securities offered thereunder by an initial investor who is a U.S. person (within the meaning of the United States Internal Revenue Code).

RISK FACTORS

Investment in the Securities is subject to various risks including those discussed below and those risks inherent in the pipeline, energy and gas storage industries. You should consider carefully the risk factors contained in and incorporated by reference in this prospectus (including subsequently filed documents incorporated by reference) and those described in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a specific offering of Securities.

Discussions of certain risks affecting us in connection with our business are provided in our annual and interim disclosure documents filed with the various securities regulatory authorities which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

There is no market through which the Securities (other than the Common Shares) may be sold.

There is currently no market through which any of the Securities, other than the Common Shares, may be sold and the purchasers of such Securities may not be able to resell such securities purchased

Table of Contents

under this prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement. There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop for any of the Preferred Shares or Subscription Receipts that may be issued under this prospectus or that any secondary market which does develop will continue. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, if any, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the securities and the extent of regulation of such Securities.

The public offering prices of the Securities may be determined by negotiation between the Corporation and underwriters based on several factors and may bear no relationship to the prices at which Securities will trade in the public market subsequent to such offering. See "Plan of Distribution".

Credit Ratings May Not Reflect All Risks of an Investment in the Securities and May Change

Credit ratings may not reflect all risks associated with an investment in the Preferred Shares. Any credit ratings applied to the Preferred Shares are an assessment of the Corporation's ability to pay its obligations. Consequently, real or anticipated changes in the credit ratings will generally affect the market value of the Preferred Shares. The credit ratings, however, may not reflect the potential impact of risks related to structure, market or other factors discussed herein on the value of the Preferred Shares. There is no assurance that any credit rating assigned to the Preferred Shares will remain in effect for any given period of time or that any rating will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by the relevant rating agency.

LEGAL MATTERS

Certain matters relating to the issue and sale of the Securities will be passed upon on behalf of the Corporation by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, as to matters of Canadian law, and Mayer Brown LLP, as to matters of U.S. law. As to matters of Canadian law, Mayer Brown LLP will rely upon the opinion of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP.

EXPERTS

The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation as at December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, have been incorporated by reference in the prospectus and in the registration statement in reliance upon the report of KPMG LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated by reference in the prospectus and in the registration statement, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

INTEREST OF EXPERTS

As at the date of this prospectus, the partners and associates of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, as a group, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, less than 1% of any class of securities of the Corporation. In connection with the audit of the Corporation's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, KPMG LLP confirmed that they are independent within the meaning of the relevant rules and related interpretations prescribed by the relevant professional bodies in Canada and any applicable legislation or regulations and also that they are independent accountants under all relevant U.S. professional and regulatory standards.

DOCUMENTS FILED AS PART OF THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

The following documents have been or will be filed with the SEC as part of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part: the documents referred to under "Documents Incorporated by Reference"; consents of KPMG LLP; consent of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP; consent of Mayer Brown LLP; and powers of attorney from directors and officers of the Corporation.

Indemnification of Certain Persons

Section 124 of the Canada Business Corporations Act ("CBCA") and Section 6 of By-Law No. 1 of TransCanada Corporation ("TransCanada" or the "Registrant") provide for the indemnification of directors and officers of TransCanada. Under these provisions, TransCanada shall indemnify a director or officer of TransCanada, a former director or officer, and may indemnify an individual who acts or acted at TransCanada's request as a director or officer or in a similar capacity of another entity (collectively, an "Indemnified Person") against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Person in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding (other than in respect to an action by or on behalf of TransCanada to procure a judgment in its favor) in which the individual is involved because of that association with TransCanada or other entity, if the Indemnified Person fulfills the following two conditions: (a) he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of TransCanada or in the best interests of such other entity as applicable and (b) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he or she had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. In respect of an action by or on behalf of TransCanada or such other entity to procure a judgment in its favor, TransCanada, with the approval of a court, may indemnify an Indemnified Person against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action if he or she fulfills the conditions set out in clauses (a) and (b) of the previous sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification from TransCanada in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of his or her association with TransCanada or such other entity if he or she fulfills the conditions in clauses (a) and (b) of this paragraph and was not judged by the court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual ought to have done.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

TransCanada maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance with policy limits of U.S. $200,000,000 in the aggregate, subject to a deductible in respect of corporate reimbursement of U.S.$5,000,000 for each loss and a separate policy with a limit of U.S.$50,000,000 for non-indemnifiable losses only. Generally, under this insurance TransCanada is reimbursed for payments in excess of the deductible made under corporate indemnity provisions on behalf of its directors and officers, and individual directors and officers (or their heirs and legal representatives) are covered for losses arising during the performance of their duties for which they are not indemnified by TransCanada. Noteworthy exclusions from coverage are: claims arising from illegal acts, those acts which result in illegal personal profit, violation of any fiduciary duty under the United States of America Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, pollution damage (except for resultant shareholder actions), bodily injury, property damage or engineering professional services and claims brought by a director or officer against another director or officer or by TransCanada against a director or officer except for shareholder derivative actions not assisted in by a director or officer of TransCanada.

The foregoing is a description of the provisions of Section 124 of the CBCA and TransCanada's By-Law No. 1 regarding indemnification of directors and officers of TransCanada and TransCanada's directors' and officers' liability insurance in effect as of December 21, 2018.

Additionally, directors and officers of TransCanada are party to indemnity agreements with TransCanada pursuant to which TransCanada has agreed to indemnify such directors and officers from liability arising in connection with the performance of their duties. Such indemnity agreements conform with the provisions of the CBCA.
