This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 amends the Registration Statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form F-9 (No. 333–172405) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) by Emera Incorporated (the “Registrant”) on February 23, 2011, pertaining to the registration by the Registrant of debt securities, first preferred shares and second preferred shares (the “Securities”) having an aggregate initial offering price of U.S. $507,150,000.
