  <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Emera is incorporated under the laws of Nova Scotia, Canada. Under Emera&#146;s Amended Articles of Association, Emera must indemnify directors
  and officers, each former director and officer and each other individual who acts or acted at Emera&#146;s request as a director or officer or in a similar capacity of an Other Entity (as defined below) and their respective heirs and legal
  representatives against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by any such person in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, arbitration,
  mediation, or other proceeding or investigation to which he or she is made a party or involved in by reason of being or having been a director or officer of Emera or such Other Entity at the request of Emera or in a similar capacity, provided that:
  (i)&nbsp;the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Emera or, as the case may be, to the best interest of the Other Entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at
  Emera&#146;s request; and (ii)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual had reasonable grounds to believe that his or her conduct was lawful. Emera shall, to the
  full extent permitted by law, advance funds to an individual referred to above for any costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding or investigation provided that such individual shall repay the funds advanced if the individual does not fulfill the
  conditions of indemnification. The right of any person to indemnification granted is not exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement, resolution or other vote of shareholders or
  directors, at law or otherwise; and the amount for which such indemnity is proved immediately attaches as a lien on the property of Emera and has priority against the members over all other claims. The term &#147;Other Entity&#148; means any
  affiliate or subsidiary of Emera, and any other body corporate, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, unincorporated association, unincorporated organization, unincorporated syndicate or other enterprise in which
  Emera, directly or indirectly, now or in the future, holds an interest, whether in debt, equity or otherwise, for which the director, officer or other individual serves or served as a director or officer or in a capacity similar thereto at the
  request of Emera. Emera is authorized to enter into an agreement evidencing and setting out the terms and conditions of an indemnity in favor of any of the persons referred to in the article regarding indemnification of its Amended Articles of
  Association. In addition, no director or officer of Emera shall, in the absence of any dishonesty on the part of such director or officer, be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other director or officer or for joining in any
  receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss or expense happening to Emera through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the directors for or on behalf of Emera, or through the insufficiency or
  deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the funds of Emera are invested, or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any funds, securities or effects are deposited, or for any
  loss occasioned by error of judgment or oversight on his or her part, or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatsoever which happens in the execution of the duties of his or her office or in relation thereto. Emera purchases directors&#146;
  and officers&#146; insurance which provides protection for directors and officers in cases where they incur a liability as a result of their activities on behalf of Emera. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

  Item 6.
  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
  Emera is incorporated under the laws of Nova Scotia, Canada. Under Emera's Amended Articles of Association, Emera must indemnify directors
  and officers, each former director and officer and each other individual who acts or acted at Emera's request as a director or officer or in a similar capacity of an Other Entity (as defined below) and their respective heirs and legal
  representatives against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by any such person in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, arbitration,
  mediation, or other proceeding or investigation to which he or she is made a party or involved in by reason of being or having been a director or officer of Emera or such Other Entity at the request of Emera or in a similar capacity, provided that:
  (i) the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Emera or, as the case may be, to the best interest of the Other Entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at
  Emera's request; and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual had reasonable grounds to believe that his or her conduct was lawful. Emera shall, to the
  full extent permitted by law, advance funds to an individual referred to above for any costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding or investigation provided that such individual shall repay the funds advanced if the individual does not fulfill the
  conditions of indemnification. The right of any person to indemnification granted is not exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement, resolution or other vote of shareholders or
  directors, at law or otherwise; and the amount for which such indemnity is proved immediately attaches as a lien on the property of Emera and has priority against the members over all other claims. The term "Other Entity" means any
  affiliate or subsidiary of Emera, and any other body corporate, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, unincorporated association, unincorporated organization, unincorporated syndicate or other enterprise in which
  Emera, directly or indirectly, now or in the future, holds an interest, whether in debt, equity or otherwise, for which the director, officer or other individual serves or served as a director or officer or in a capacity similar thereto at the
  request of Emera. Emera is authorized to enter into an agreement evidencing and setting out the terms and conditions of an indemnity in favor of any of the persons referred to in the article regarding indemnification of its Amended Articles of
  Association. In addition, no director or officer of Emera shall, in the absence of any dishonesty on the part of such director or officer, be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other director or officer or for joining in any
  receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss or expense happening to Emera through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the directors for or on behalf of Emera, or through the insufficiency or
  deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the funds of Emera are invested, or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any funds, securities or effects are deposited, or for any
  loss occasioned by error of judgment or oversight on his or her part, or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatsoever which happens in the execution of the duties of his or her office or in relation thereto. Emera purchases directors'
  and officers' insurance which provides protection for directors and officers in cases where they incur a liability as a result of their activities on behalf of Emera.

  Undertakings.
  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
  (1)
  to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
  Registration Statement:
  (i)
  to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
  (ii)
  to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration
  Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment hereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement; and
  (iii)
  to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
  this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
  provided, however
  , that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a
  post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
  reference into this Registration Statement;
  (2)
  that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
  post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and
  (3)
  to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered
  which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
  of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
  employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
  securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
  persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore,
  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of
  any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
  precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
  SIGNATURES
  Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe
  that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form
  S-8
  and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the city of Halifax,
  Nova Scotia, Canada, on May 28, 2025.
