Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On January 17, 2022, Enbridge Inc. (the “Corporation”) filed Articles of Amendment with the Director under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “CBCA”) amending its articles to create a new series of Preference Shares of the Corporation designated as Preference Shares, Series 2022-A (the “Conversion Preference Shares”). The Conversion Preference Shares are issuable upon the automatic conversion of the CAD$750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Corporation’s 5.00% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes Series 2022-A due January 19, 2082 (the “Notes”). The Conversion Preference Shares will be entitled to receive cumulative preferential cash dividends, if, as and when declared by the board of directors of the Corporation, subject to the CBCA, at the same rate as the interest rate that would have accrued on the Notes (had the Notes remained outstanding), payable on each semi-annual dividend payment date, subject to any applicable withholding tax.

 

The foregoing description of the Corporation’s Articles of Amendment is qualified in all respects by reference to the text of the Certificate of Amendment issued by the Director under the CBCA on January 17, 2022 and the Articles of Amendment attached thereto, which are filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
