2.2	Form and Terms of Series 2023-1 Notes
(a)	The Series 2023-1 Notes authorized for issue are initially limited<br>to an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 and shall be designated as 4.838% senior unsecured notes due May 2, 2030 (Series 2023-1); provided that the Issuer may, without the consent of the<br>Noteholders, increase the principal amount of the Series 2023-1 Notes outstanding by issuing additional Series 2023-1 Notes (“Additional Notes”) in the<br>future on the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, the right to receive accrued and unpaid interest), except for differences in the issue price and issue date of the Additional Notes, and with the same CUSIP/ISIN numbers as the<br>Series 2023-1 Notes then outstanding; provided further that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Series 2023-1 Notes then outstanding for income tax<br>purposes, the Additional Notes shall have separate CUSIP/ISIN numbers. No Additional Notes may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Series 2023-1 Notes.

---	---
(b)	The Series 2023-1 Notes shall mature on May 2, 2030.<br>
---	---

(c)	The Series 2023-1 Notes bear interest from May 2, 2023, or from the last Interest Payment Date (as defined<br>below) to which interest shall have been paid or made available for payment thereon, whichever is later, to, but excluding the next Interest Payment Date, at the rate of 4.838% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in equal instalments on May<br>2 and November 2 in each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing November 2, 2023, in an amount equal to $24.19 per $1,000 principal amount. The first interest payment on November 2, 2023 shall be in respect of Series<br>2023-1 Notes issued on the date hereof and the last such payment (representing interest payable from and including the last Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date of the Series 2023-1 Notes or Redemption Date of the Series 2023-1<br>Notes), subject as herein provided, to fall due on May 2, 2030 or the Redemption Date, payable after as well as before maturity and after as well as before default, with interest on amounts in default at the same rate, compounded semi-annually.<br>Interest payable for any period less than a full semiannual period shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period.
(d)	The Series 2023-1 Notes are redeemable at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, subject<br>to any conditions of redemption as may be specified in the applicable notice of redemption, on not fewer than 10 nor more than 60 days prior notice on payment of a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) the applicable Canada Yield Price<br>and (ii) par, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. In the event that the Company elects to redeem the Series 2023-1 Notes in whole or in part on or after<br>March 2, 2030 (2 months prior to the Maturity Date of the Series 2023-1 Notes) (the “Par Call Date”), the Redemption Price shall equal par, together with accrued and unpaid interest to<br>the date fixed for redemption. A conditional notice of redemption will be of no effect unless all conditions of the redemption have been satisfied on or before the Redemption Date specified in such notice. For any notice of redemption that is<br>conditional, in the event that the condition(s) are not satisfied or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion on or prior to the Redemption Date, the redemption shall not be made and the Issuer shall promptly (but in any event no later than the<br>Redemption Date) give notice, in the manner which the notice of redemption was given, that such conditions(s) were not satisfied or waived, in which case such notice of redemption shall be rescinded and such redemption shall not be made, and the<br>Trustee shall promptly return to the holders thereof any Series 2023-1 Notes which had been surrendered for payment upon such redemption. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no responsibility<br>for determining whether or not a condition set forth in such notice of redemption is satisfied, and shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Issuer’s determination regarding satisfaction or waiver thereof.
---	---

(c)

The Series 2023-1 Notes bear interest from May 2, 2023, or from the last Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest shall have been paid or made available for payment thereon, whichever is later, to, but excluding the next Interest Payment Date, at the rate of 4.838% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in equal instalments on May 2 and November 2 in each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing November 2, 2023, in an amount equal to $24.19 per $1,000 principal amount. The first interest payment on November 2, 2023 shall be in respect of Series 2023-1 Notes issued on the date hereof and the last such payment (representing interest payable from and including the last Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date of the Series 2023-1 Notes or Redemption Date of the Series 2023-1 Notes), subject as herein provided, to fall due on May 2, 2030 or the Redemption Date, payable after as well as before maturity and after as well as before default, with interest on amounts in default at the same rate, compounded semi-annually. Interest payable for any period less than a full semiannual period shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period.

(d)

The Series 2023-1 Notes are redeemable at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, subject to any conditions of redemption as may be specified in the applicable notice of redemption, on not fewer than 10 nor more than 60 days prior notice on payment of a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) the applicable Canada Yield Price and (ii) par, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. In the event that the Company elects to redeem the Series 2023-1 Notes in whole or in part on or after March 2, 2030 (2 months prior to the Maturity Date of the Series 2023-1 Notes) (the “Par Call Date”), the Redemption Price shall equal par, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption. A conditional notice of redemption will be of no effect unless all conditions of the redemption have been satisfied on or before the Redemption Date specified in such notice. For any notice of redemption that is conditional, in the event that the condition(s) are not satisfied or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion on or prior to the Redemption Date, the redemption shall not be made and the Issuer shall promptly (but in any event no later than the Redemption Date) give notice, in the manner which the notice of redemption was given, that such conditions(s) were not satisfied or waived, in which case such notice of redemption shall be rescinded and such redemption shall not be made, and the Trustee shall promptly return to the holders thereof any Series 2023-1 Notes which had been surrendered for payment upon such redemption. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no responsibility for determining whether or not a condition set forth in such notice of redemption is satisfied, and shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Issuer’s determination regarding satisfaction or waiver thereof.

---

The “Canada Yield Price” means a price equal to the price of the Series 2023-1 Notes calculated to provide a yield to the Par Call Date equal to the Government of Canada Yield calculated on the date on which the Issuer gives notice of redemption plus 0.51%.

The “Government of Canada Yield” on any date means the yield to the Par Call Date on such date, compounded semi-annually and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would carry if issued in Canadian dollars in Canada, at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity equal to the remaining term to the Par Call Date calculated as of the redemption date of the Series 2023-1 Notes, such yield to the Par Call Date being the average of the yields provided by two major Canadian investment dealers selected by the Issuer.

(e)

The Series 2023-1 Notes shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. Each certificate representing the Series 2023-1 Notes and the certificate of the Trustee endorsed thereon shall be issued in substantially the form set out in Schedule A to this Supplemental Indenture, with such insertions, omissions, substitutions or other variations as shall be required or permitted by the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, and may have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legends or endorsements, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, as may be required to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations pursuant thereto or with any rules or regulations of any securities exchange or securities regulatory authority or to conform with general usage, all as may be determined by any two authorized directors and/or officers of the Issuer executing such Series 2023-1 Note in accordance with Section 2.7 of the Indenture, as conclusively evidenced by their execution thereof. Each certificate representing the Series 2023-1 Notes shall additionally bear such distinguishing letters and numbers as the Trustee shall approve. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the certificate representing the Series 2023-1 Notes may be in such other form or forms as may, from time to time, be, approved by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, or as specified in an Officers’ Certificate. The certificate representing the Series 2023-1 Notes may be engraved, lithographed, printed, mimeographed or typewritten or partly in one form and partly in another.

The Series 2023-1 Notes shall be issued as a Global Note and the Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depository which, as of the date hereof, shall be CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (or any nominee of the Depository). No beneficial holder will receive definitive certificates representing their interest in Series 2023-1 Notes except as provided in Section 2.5 of the Indenture. A Global Note may be exchanged for Series 2023-1 Notes in registered form that are not Global Notes, or transferred to and registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Notes or a nominee thereof as provided in Section 3.2 of the Indenture.

(f)	The Trustee shall be provided with the documents and instruments referred to in Sections 2.7(c) of the<br>Indenture with respect to the Series 2023-1 Notes prior to the issuance of the Series 2023-1 Notes.

4.838% SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

DUE MAY 2, 2030 (SERIES 2023-1)

EMERA INCORPORATED (the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby acknowledges itself indebted and, subject to the provisions of the indenture (the “Original Indenture”) dated as of June 16, 2016 between the Issuer and TSX Trust Company, as successor trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by a second supplemental trust indenture (the “Second Supplemental Trust Indenture”) dated as of May 2, 2023 (the Original Indenture as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Trust Indenture being referred to as the “Indenture”) between the Issuer and the Trustee, promises to pay to CDS & Co. or registered assigns on May 2, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”) or on such earlier date as the principal amount hereof may become due in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION ($500,000,000) in lawful money of Canada on presentation and surrender of this 4.838% senior unsecured note due May 2, 2030 (Series 2023-1) (the “Series 2023-1 Notes”) at the principal office of the Trustee in Montreal, Quebéc in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The Series 2023-1 Notes shall, subject as herein provided, bear interest on the principal amount hereof from May 2, 2030, or from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest shall have been paid or made available for payment hereon, whichever is later, at the rate of 4.838% per annum, in like money, payable semi-annually in arrears in equal instalments on May 2 and November 2 in each year commencing on November 2, 2023 in an amount equal to $24.19 per $1,000 principal amount. The last interest payment representing interest payable from the last Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date or Redemption Date will fall due on the Maturity Date or Redemption Date and, should the Issuer at any time make default in the payment of any principal or interest, the Issuer shall pay

A-1

interest on the amount in default at the same rate, in like money and on the same dates on which interest is otherwise payable. Interest payable for any period less than a full semi-annual period shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period. Interest hereon shall be payable by cheque mailed by prepaid ordinary mail to the registered holder hereof or by electronic transfer of funds to the registered holder hereof, and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the mailing of such cheque or the sending of such electronic transfer of funds shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby (plus the amount of any tax withheld) satisfy and discharge all liability for interest on this Series 2023-1 Note.

This Series 2023-1 Note is one of the Notes of the Issuer issued or issuable in one or more Series under the provisions of the Original Indenture. The Series 2023-1 Notes authorized for issue are limited to an initial aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 in lawful money of Canada. Reference is hereby expressly made to the Indenture for a description of the terms and conditions upon which the Series 2023-1 Notes are or are to be issued and held and the rights and remedies of the holders of the Series 2023-1 Notes and of the Issuer and of the Trustee, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Indenture were herein set forth to all of which provisions the holder of this Series 2023-1 Note by acceptance hereof assents.

The Series 2023-1 Notes are issuable only in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. Upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, Notes of any denomination may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes in any other authorized denomination or denominations.

The Issuer will be required to redeem all or part of the Series 2023-1 Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture. In addition, the Issuer may redeem the Series 2023-1 Notes, in whole or in part, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Series 2023-1 Note, and by all other Series 2023-1 Notes now or hereafter certified and delivered under the Indenture, is a direct unsecured obligation of the Issuer, and ranks equally and pari passu with each other and with Notes of every other Series (regardless of their actual dates or terms of issue) and, subject to statutory preferred exceptions, with all other present and future unsubordinated and unsecured indebtedness of the Issuer, except as to sinking fund provisions applicable to different series of Notes and other similar types of obligations, of the Issuer.

The principal hereof may become or be declared due and payable before the stated maturity in the events, in the manner, with the effect and at the times provided in the Indenture.

Any payment of money to any holder of Series 2023-1 Notes will be reduced by the amount of applicable withholding tax, if any. The Original Indenture contains provisions making binding upon all holders of Notes outstanding thereunder (or in certain circumstances specific Series of Notes) resolutions passed at meetings of such holders held in accordance with such provisions and instruments signed by the holders of a specified majority of Notes outstanding (or specific Series), which resolutions or instruments may have the effect of amending the terms of these Series 2023-1 Notes or the Indenture.

The Series 2023-1 Note may only be transferred, upon compliance with the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, in the registers to be kept at the principal office of the Trustee in Toronto and in such other place or places and/or by such other registrars (if any) as the Issuer with the approval of the Trustee may designate. No transfer of this Series 2023-1 Note shall be valid unless made on the register by the registered holder hereof or his executors or administrators or other legal representatives, or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee or other registrar, and upon compliance with such reasonable requirements as the Trustee and/or other registrar may prescribe and upon surrender of this Series 2023-1 Note for cancellation. Thereupon a new Series 2023-1 Note or Series 2023-1 Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the transferee in exchange hereof.

This Series 2023-1 Note shall not become obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been certified by the Trustee under the Indenture.

Capitalized words or expressions used in the Series 2023-1 Note shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

If any of the provisions of this Series 2023-1 Note are inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall take precedence and shall govern.
