Emera converts Series J First Preferred shares

Emera Incorporated (“Emera” or the “Company”) (TSX/NYSE: EMA) announced today that after having taken into account all conversion notices received from holders of its outstanding Cumulative Minimum Rate Reset First Preferred Shares, Series J (the “Series J Shares”) by the April 30, 2026 deadline for conversion notices, less than the 1,000,000 Series J Shares required to give effect to conversions into Cumulative Floating Rate First Preferred Shares, Series K (the “Series K Shares”) were tendered for conversion. As a result, in accordance with certain conditions set out in the prospectus supplement of the Company dated March 26, 2021, to the short form base shelf prospectus dated March 12, 2021, relating to the issuance of the Series J Shares (collectively, the “Prospectus”), none of Emera’s outstanding Series J Shares will be converted into Series K Shares on May 15, 2026. The Series J Shares will continue to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) under the symbol EMA.PR.J.

Holders will have the opportunity again to elect to convert their Series J Shares into Series K Shares on May 15, 2031 and every five years thereafter as long as the Series J Shares remain outstanding.
