NEWS RELEASE
 
TEEKAY TANKERS LTD. FILES FOR INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
 
Nassau, The Bahamas — December 3, 2007 - Teekay Corporation (Teekay) (NYSE: TK) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Teekay Tankers Ltd., has filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for an initial public offering of its Class A Common Stock. The offering currently is scheduled to include 10,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (11,500,000 shares if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full), representing a 40% ownership interest. The Class A Common Stock has been approved for listing on The New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, under the symbol “TNK.”
Teekay Tankers Ltd., a recently formed Marshall Islands corporation, will acquire from Teekay upon the closing of the public offering a fleet of nine double-hull Aframax-class oil tankers, which an affiliate of Teekay will manage under a mix of spot-market trading and short- or medium-term fixed-rate time-charter contracts. In addition, Teekay will offer to Teekay Tankers within 18 months of the public offering the opportunity to purchase up to four Suezmax-class oil tankers. Teekay Tankers intends to distribute on a quarterly basis all of its cash available for distribution, subject to any reserves established by its board of directors.
Citi and Morgan Stanley will act as joint book-running managers and as representatives of the underwriters, who will include Merrill Lynch & Co., Wachovia Securities, Deutsche Bank Securities, JPMorgan, Dahlman Rose & Company, Scotia Capital, and Johnson Rice & Company L.L.C. A written prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, when available, may be obtained from Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Brooklyn Army Terminal, 140 58th Street, 8th Floor, Brooklyn, New York, 11220, Attention: Prospectus Department; fax: 718-765-6734; phone: 800-831-9146; or Morgan Stanley & Co.
