RISK FACTORS

        You should consider carefully the following risks and other information contained in and incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus before deciding to invest in the notes. The following risks and uncertainties could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In that event, the value of our securities, including the notes, or our ability to meet our obligations under the notes, may be adversely affected.

Risks Related to the Notes

We are a holding company and as a result are dependent on our subsidiaries to generate sufficient cash and distribute cash to us to service our indebtedness, including the notes.

        Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness, fund our ongoing operations and invest in capital expenditures and any acquisitions will depend on our subsidiaries' ability to generate cash in the future and distribute that cash to us. It is possible that our subsidiaries may not generate cash from operations in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness, including the notes. The notes are U.S. dollar-denominated obligations and the majority of our subsidiaries' revenues are denominated in Canadian dollars. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollar may adversely affect our ability to service or refinance our U.S. dollar-denominated indebtedness, including the notes.

The notes are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness of our subsidiaries.

        The notes are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries (including partnerships and joint ventures through which we conduct business) and are thus structurally subordinated to all of the debt of these subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures. The Corporation's interests in its subsidiaries and the partnerships and joint ventures through which it conducts business generally consist of equity interests, which are residual claims on the assets of those entities after their creditors are satisfied. As at June 30, 2013, the long-term debt (excluding current portion, as well as guarantees and intercompany obligations between the Corporation and its subsidiaries) of the Corporation's subsidiaries totaled approximately $12,985 million.

        The indenture governing the notes restricts our ability to incur liens, but places no such restriction on our subsidiaries or the partnerships and joint ventures through which we conduct business. Holders of parent company indebtedness that is secured by parent company assets will have a claim on the assets securing the indebtedness that is prior in right of payment to our general unsecured creditors, including you as a holder of the notes. The indenture governing the notes permits us to incur additional liens as described under "Description of Debt Securities—Covenants—Limitation on Security Interests" in the accompanying prospectus.

Changes to LIBOR may adversely affect holders of the Floating Rate Notes.

        Beginning in 2008, various concerns have been raised with respect to the calculation of LIBOR across a range of maturities and currencies. A number of the British Bankers Association (the "BBA") member banks have entered into settlements with their regulators and law enforcement agencies with respect to alleged manipulation of LIBOR, and investigations were instigated by regulators and governmental authorities in various jurisdictions (including in the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Japan and Canada). If manipulation of LIBOR or another inter-bank lending rate occurred, it may have resulted in that rate being artificially lower (or higher) than it otherwise would have been.

        In September 2012, the U.K. government published the results of its review of LIBOR (commonly referred to as the "Wheatley Review"). The Wheatley Review made a number of recommendations for

S-10

---

Table of Contents

changes with respect to LIBOR including the introduction of statutory regulation of LIBOR, the transfer of responsibility for LIBOR from the BBA to an independent administrator, changes to the method of compilation of lending rates and new regulatory oversight and enforcement mechanisms for rate-setting. Based on the Wheatley Review, final rules for the regulation and supervision of LIBOR by the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") were published and came into effect on April 2, 2013 (the "FCA Rules"). In particular, the FCA Rules include requirements that (1) an independent LIBOR administrator monitor and survey LIBOR submissions to identify breaches of practice standards and/or potentially manipulative behavior, and (2) firms submitting data to LIBOR establish and maintain a clear conflicts of interest policy and appropriate systems and controls.

        On September 18, 2013, the European Commission released proposals that could result in additional regulation of LIBOR and other benchmarks if adopted by the European Parliament and the member states.

        It is not possible to predict the effect of the FCA Rules, any changes in the methods pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined and any other reforms to LIBOR that will be enacted in the U.K., the European Union and elsewhere, which may adversely affect the trading market for LIBOR-based securities. In addition, any changes announced by the FCA, the BBA or any other successor governance or oversight body, or future changes adopted by such body or the European Union, in the method pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined may result in a sudden or prolonged decrease (or increase) in the reported LIBOR rates. If that were to occur, the level of interest payments on and the trading value of the Floating Rate Notes may be adversely affected. Further, uncertainty as to the extent and manner in which the Wheatley Review recommendations will continue to be adopted and the European Commission proposals may be adopted and the timing of such changes may adversely affect the current trading market for LIBOR-based securities and the value of your Floating Rate Notes.

The amount of interest payable on the Floating Rate Notes is set only once per period based on the three-month LIBOR on the interest determination date, which rate may fluctuate significantly.

        In the past, the level of three-month LIBOR has experienced significant fluctuations. You should note that historical levels, fluctuations and trends of three-month LIBOR are not necessarily indicative of future levels. Any historical upward or downward trend in three-month LIBOR is not an indication that three-month LIBOR is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time during a floating rate interest period, and you should not take the historical levels of three-month LIBOR as an indication of its future performance. You should further note that although actual three-month LIBOR on an interest payment date or at other times during an interest period may be higher than three-month LIBOR on the applicable interest determination date, you will not benefit from three-month LIBOR at any time other than on the interest determination date for such interest period. As a result, changes in three-month LIBOR may not result in a comparable change in the market value of the Floating Rate Notes.

Risks Related to our Business

        You should carefully consider the risks identified and discussed in the management's discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2012, which are incorporated herein by reference (the page references below are to the management's discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and with the SEC (as part of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 40-F filed on February 15, 2013) at www.sec.gov):

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

        The following description of the terms of the notes supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith supersedes, the description of the general terms and provisions of debt securities under the heading "Description of Debt Securities" in the accompanying prospectus, and should be read in conjunction with that description. In this section, the terms "Corporation" and "Enbridge" refer only to Enbridge Inc. and not to its subsidiaries.

        The notes will be issued under an indenture, dated as of February 25, 2005, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated March 1, 2012 each between the Corporation and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (the indenture as amended and supplemented, the "Indenture"). The Trustee will initially serve as paying agent for the notes. The following summary of certain provisions of the Indenture and the notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual provisions of the Indenture.

General

        The Trustee under the Indenture is referred to in this section as the "Trustee", which term shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this section shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

        The notes will be direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Corporation, issued under the Indenture and will rank equally with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Corporation other than preferred claims imposed by statute. In addition, our business operations are conducted substantially through our subsidiaries and through partnerships and joint ventures. The notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of these subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures. As of June 30, 2013, the long-term debt (excluding current portion, as well as guarantees and intercompany obligations between the Corporation and its subsidiaries) of the Corporation's subsidiaries totaled approximately $12,985 million. At June 30, 2013, as determined under U.S. GAAP, the Corporation's total consolidated long-term debt and long-term debt due within one year was, in aggregate principal amount, approximately $21,019 million (excluding the notes and the Corporation's proportionate share of non-recourse debt of joint ventures), none of which was secured debt. There are no terms of the Indenture that limit the ability of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, partnerships or joint ventures to incur additional indebtedness, including in the case of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures, indebtedness that ranks, either effectively or by contract, senior to the notes. See "Description of Debt Securities—Covenants" in the accompanying prospectus.

        The notes will be denominated in U.S. dollars, and payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the notes will be made in U.S. dollars in the manner and on terms set out in the Indenture.

Fixed Rate Notes

        The Fixed Rate Notes will be issued under the Indenture in a single series in an aggregate principal amount of US$800 million. The Fixed Rate Notes will mature on October 1, 2023, and will bear interest at a rate of 4.000% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing April 1, 2014 (each an "Interest Payment Date"), to the persons in whose names the Fixed Rate Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding March 15 or September 15, respectively. Interest on the Fixed Rate Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

        Interest payments for the Fixed Rate Notes will include accrued interest from and including the date of issue or from and including the last date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case

S-18

---

Table of Contents

may be, to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Date or the date of maturity, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date or the maturity date of the Fixed Rate Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the maturity date, as the case may be.

        The Fixed Rate Notes may be redeemed by the Corporation prior to maturity as described below under "—Optional Redemption".

        The provisions of the Indenture relating to the payment of additional amounts in respect of Canadian withholding taxes in certain circumstances and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the redemption of the Fixed Rate Notes in the event of specified changes in Canadian withholding tax law on or after the date of this prospectus supplement will apply to the Fixed Rate Notes. See "Description of Debt Securities—Payment of Additional Amounts" and "Description of Debt Securities—Redemption—Tax Redemption" in the accompanying prospectus.

        The Fixed Rate Notes will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Fixed Rate Notes will not be convertible into other securities of the Corporation in lieu of payment of principal. The Fixed Rate Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or automated quotation system.

        The Fixed Rate Notes will be subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance as described in the prospectus under the heading "Description of Debt Securities—Defeasance."

        Payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Fixed Rate Notes will be made by the Corporation through the Trustee to the Depositary. See "Description of the Notes—Book-Entry System".

        "Business Day" means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York and in the applicable Place of Payment, if other than The City of New York, are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. The initial Places of Payment for the notes will be the Trustee's corporate trust office in The City of New York and the Corporation's corporate headquarters in Calgary.

Floating Rate Notes

        The Floating Rate Notes will be issued under the Indenture in a single series in an aggregate principal amount of US$350 million. The Floating Rate Notes will mature on October 1, 2016. Interest on the Floating Rate Notes will be payable quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning January 1, 2014 (each, a "Floating Rate Interest Payment Date"), and at maturity to the person in whose name the Floating Rate Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding December 15, March 15, June 15 and September 15, whether or not a Business Day. Interest on the Floating Rate Notes will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the interest period divided by 360.

        If any Floating Rate Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day for the Floating Rate Notes, we will postpone the making of such interest or principal payment to the next succeeding Business Day (and interest thereon will continue to accrue to but excluding such succeeding Business Day), unless the next succeeding Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case such interest payment date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day and interest shall accrue to but excluding such preceding Business Day. If the maturity date or a redemption date for the Floating Rate Notes would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, but no additional interest shall accrue and be paid unless we fail to make payment on such next succeeding Business Day.

Table of Contents

        Interest payments for the Floating Rate Notes will include accrued interest from and including the date of issue or from and including the last date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to, but excluding, the next Floating Rate Interest Payment Date or maturity, as the case may be. The Floating Rate Notes will bear interest for each interest period at a rate per annum calculated by the calculation agent, subject to the maximum interest rate permitted by New York or other applicable state law, as such law may be modified by United States law of general application, and the Criminal Code (Canada). The per annum rate at which interest on the Floating Rate Notes will be payable during each interest period will be equal to the then-applicable three-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollars, determined on the Interest Determination Date for that interest period, plus 0.65% (65 basis points).

        "Interest Determination Date" means the second London Business Day immediately preceding the applicable quarterly interest reset date. The interest reset dates will be January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1. The Interest Determination Date for the initial interest period will be the second London Business Day immediately preceding settlement for the Floating Rate Notes.

        "interest period" means the period commencing on any Floating Rate Interest Payment Date for the Floating Rate Notes (or, with respect to the initial interest period only, commencing on October 2, 2013) to, but excluding, the next succeeding Floating Rate Interest Payment Date for the Floating Rate Notes, and in the case of the last such period, from and including the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the maturity date to but not including such maturity date.

        "London Business Day" means a day on which dealings in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

        "three-month LIBOR," for any Interest Determination Date, will be the offered rate for deposits in the London interbank market in U.S. dollars having an index maturity of three months that appears on the designated LIBOR page, as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date. If no rate appears in the designated LIBOR page (as described below), LIBOR, in respect of that Interest Determination Date, will be determined as follows: the calculation agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market (which may include the calculation agent, any paying agents or their respective affiliates), as selected by the Corporation, to provide the calculation agent with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the interest reset date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on that Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of those quotations (rounded if necessary to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards). If fewer than two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on the Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date by three major banks in The City of New York (which may include the calculation agent, the paying agents or their affiliates) selected by the Corporation for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time; provided, however, that if the banks selected by the Corporation are not providing quotations in the manner described by this sentence, the rate of LIBOR for the next interest period will be set equal to the rate of LIBOR for the then current interest period. The designated LIBOR page is the Reuters screen "LIBOR01", or any successor service for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of major banks for U.S. dollars. The Reuters screen "LIBOR01" is the display designated as the Reuters screen "LIBOR01", or such other page as may replace the Reuters screen "LIBOR01" on that service or such other service or services as may be denominated by the British Bankers' Association or its

successor as LIBOR administrator for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits. All calculations made by the calculation agent for the purposes of calculating the interest rate on the Floating Rate Notes shall be conclusive and binding on the holders of Floating Rate Notes, us and the trustee, absent manifest error.

        For each interest period, the calculation agent will calculate the amount of accrued interest by multiplying the principal amount of the Floating Rate Note by an accrued interest factor for the interest period. This factor will equal the sum of the interest factors calculated for each day during the interest period. The interest factor for each day will be expressed as a decimal and will be calculated by dividing the interest rate, also expressed as a decimal, applicable to that day by 360.

        The interest rate and amount of interest to be paid on the Floating Rate Notes for each interest period will be calculated by the calculation agent. Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas will be appointed as our calculation agent; however, we may change the calculation agent at any time without notice, and the calculation agent may resign as calculation agent at any time upon sixty (60) days' written notice to us. All calculations made by the calculation agent shall in the absence of manifest error be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Corporation and the holders of the Floating Rate Notes. So long as three-month LIBOR is required to be determined with respect to the Floating Rate Notes, there will at all times be a calculation agent. In the event that any then acting calculation agent shall be unable or unwilling to act, or that such calculation agent shall fail duly to establish three-month LIBOR for any interest period, or we propose to remove such calculation agent, we shall appoint another calculation agent.

        The provisions of the Indenture relating to the payment of additional amounts in respect of Canadian withholding taxes in certain circumstances and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the redemption of the Floating Rate Notes in the event of specified changes in Canadian withholding tax law on or after the date of this prospectus supplement will apply to the Floating Rate Notes. See "Description of Debt Securities—Payment of Additional Amounts" and "Description of Debt Securities—Redemption—Tax Redemption" in the accompanying prospectus.

        The Floating Rate Notes will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Floating Rate Notes will not be convertible into other securities of the Corporation in lieu of payment of principal. The Floating Rate Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or automated quotation system.

        The Floating Rate Notes will be subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance as described in the prospectus under the heading "Description of Debt Securities—Defeasance."

        Payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Floating Rate Notes will be made by the Corporation through the Trustee to the Depositary. See "Description of the Notes—Book-Entry System".

The Trustee

        Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the "Trustee") is the Trustee under the Indenture governing the notes. The Trustee is an affiliate of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., an underwriter of the notes. Under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, due to this affiliation, if a default occurred on the notes, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas would be required to resign as Trustee within 90 days of the default unless the default were cured, duly waived or otherwise eliminated. An affiliate of the Trustee is a lender under certain of the credit facilities of Enbridge and its subsidiary, Enbridge (U.S.) Inc., described under "Underwriting" in this prospectus supplement, and affiliates of the Trustee may have further commercial banking, advisory and other relationships with Enbridge and its subsidiaries.

Optional Redemption

        The Fixed Rate Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at our option at any time or from time to time. The redemption price for the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed on any redemption date that is more than three months prior to the maturity date of the Fixed Rate Notes will be equal to the greater of:

•

100% of the principal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed, and



•

the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of the payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis points,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption. The redemption price for the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed on any redemption date that is on or after the date that is three months prior to the maturity date of the Fixed Rate Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Fixed Rate Notes being redeemed that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to the relevant redemption date will be payable to the holders of Fixed Rate Notes registered at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to the terms and provisions of the Indenture.

        Notice of any redemption will be delivered by first-class mail at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the redemption date to each holder of the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed. If less than all the Fixed Rate Notes are to be redeemed, the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed will be selected by the Trustee by lot or such other method that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

        Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Fixed Rate Notes or portions of the Fixed Rate Notes called for redemption.

        If any Fixed Rate Note is redeemed in part, the notice of redemption relating to such Fixed Rate Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed; provided that no Fixed Rate Note in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. A replacement Fixed Rate Note in the principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the holder thereof upon cancellation of the original note.

        In connection with such optional redemption of the Fixed Rate Notes, the following defined terms apply:

        "Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue (as defined below), assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the redemption date.

        "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by the Quotation Agent as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Fixed Rate Notes.

S-22

---

Table of Contents

        "Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

        "Quotation Agent" means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, which is appointed by the Trustee as directed by us.

        "Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and their respective successors; provided, however, that if such entity or its successor shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer"), we shall substitute therefor another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer.

        "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Reference Treasury Dealer, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. (New York time) on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

        The notes will be subject to redemption by the Corporation as described in the prospectus under the heading "Description of Debt Securities—Redemption—Tax Redemption" in the event of the occurrence of the circumstances therein described after the date of the initial issuance of the notes.

Book-Entry System

        The notes will be represented by fully registered global securities (the "Global Securities") registered in the name of Cede & Co. (the nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary")), or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of the Depositary. The authorized denominations of each note will be US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The provisions set forth under "Description of Debt Securities—Global Securities" in the accompanying prospectus will be applicable to the notes. Accordingly, notes may be transferred or exchanged only through the Depositary and its participants. Except as described under "Description of Debt Securities—Global Securities" in the accompanying prospectus, owners of beneficial interests in the Global Securities will not be entitled to receive notes in definitive form. Account holders in the Euroclear or Clearstream clearance systems may hold beneficial interests in the notes through the accounts that each of these systems maintains as a participant in the Depositary.

        Each person owning a beneficial interest in a Global Security must rely on the procedures of the Depositary and, if such person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which such person owns its interest in order to exercise any rights of a holder under the Indenture. The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in certificated form. Such limits and such laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a Global Security representing the notes.

The Depositary

        The following is based on information furnished by the Depositary: The Depositary is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. The Depositary holds securities that its participants ("Participants") deposit with the Depositary. The Depositary also

S-23

---

Table of Contents

facilitates the settlement among Participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. These direct Participants ("Direct Participants") include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to the Depositary's system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The rules applicable to the Depositary and its Participants are on file with the SEC.

        Purchases of the notes under the Depositary's system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for such notes on the Depositary's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each note represented by a Global Security ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from the Depositary of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participants through which such Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in a Global Security representing notes are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners of a Global Security representing the notes will not receive notes in definitive form representing their ownership interests therein, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for such notes is discontinued.

        To facilitate subsequent transfers, the Global Securities representing the notes which are deposited with the Depositary are registered in the name of the Depositary's nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of the Depositary. The deposit of Global Securities with the Depositary and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee effect no change in beneficial ownership. The Depositary has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Global Securities representing the notes; the Depositary's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such notes are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

        Conveyance of notices and other communications by the Depositary to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

        Neither the Depositary nor Cede & Co. (nor such other nominee of the Depositary) will consent or vote with respect to the Global Securities representing the notes. Under its usual procedures, the Depositary mails an "omnibus proxy" to the Corporation as soon as possible after the applicable record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the notes are credited on the applicable record date (identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy).

        Principal, premium, if any, and interest payments on the Global Securities representing the notes will be made to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of the Depositary). The Depositary's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts, upon the Depositary's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Corporation or the Trustee, on the applicable payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on the Depositary's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name", and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of the Depositary, the Trustee or the Corporation, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as

may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of the Depositary) is the responsibility of the Corporation or the Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the responsibility of the Depositary, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.

        The Depositary may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the notes at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Corporation or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, notes in definitive form are required to be printed and delivered to each holder.

        The Corporation may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through the Depositary (or a successor securities depository). In that event, notes in definitive form will be printed and delivered.

        Settlement for the notes will be made in immediately available funds. Secondary market trading in the notes will be settled in immediately available funds.

        The information in this section concerning the Depositary and the Depositary's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Corporation believes to be reliable, but is subject to any changes to the arrangements between the Corporation and the Depositary and any changes to such procedures that may be instituted unilaterally by the Depositary.

Euroclear

        Euroclear is incorporated under the laws of Belgium as a bank and is subject to regulation by the Belgian Banking, Finance and Insurance Commission (La Commission Bancaire, Financière et des Assurances) and the National Bank of Belgium (Banque Nationale de Belgique). Euroclear holds securities for its customers and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among them. It does so through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Euroclear provides other services to its customers, including credit, custody, lending and borrowing of securities and tri-party collateral management. It interfaces with the domestic markets of several countries. Euroclear customers include banks, including central banks, securities brokers and dealers, trust companies and clearing corporations and may include certain other professional financial intermediaries. Indirect access to the Euroclear system is also available to others that clear through Euroclear customers or that have custodial relationships with Euroclear customers. All securities in Euroclear are held on a fungible basis. This means that specific certificates are not matched to specific securities clearance accounts.

        The information in this section concerning Euroclear has been obtained from sources that the Corporation believes to be reliable, but is subject to any changes that may be instituted unilaterally by Euroclear.

Clearstream

        Clearstream is a duly licensed bank organized as a société anonyme incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg and is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Commission for the Supervision of the Financial Sector (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier). Clearstream holds securities for its customers and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among them. It does so through electronic book-entry transfers between the accounts of its customers. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities. Clearstream provides other services to its customers, including safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and lending and borrowing of securities. It interfaces with the domestic markets in over 30 countries through established depositary and custodial relationships. Clearstream's customers include worldwide

securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations and may include professional financial intermediaries. Its U.S. customers are limited to securities brokers and dealers and banks. Indirect access to the Clearstream system is also available to others that clear through Clearstream customers or that have custodial relationships with its customers, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies.

        The information in this section concerning Clearstream has been obtained from sources that the Corporation believes to be reliable, but is subject to any changes that may be instituted unilaterally by Clearstream.

Global Clearance and Settlement Procedures

        Cross market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly through the Depositary, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Euroclear or Clearstream, on the other, will be effected through the Depositary in accordance with Depositary rules on behalf of the relevant European international clearing system by its U.S. depositary; however, such cross market transactions will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines (European time). The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its U.S. depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving notes through the Depositary, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same day funds settlement applicable to the Depositary. Clearstream participants and Euroclear participants may not deliver instructions directly to their respective U.S. depositaries.

        Because of time zone differences, credits of notes received through Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a Depositary participant will be made during subsequent securities settlement processing and dated the business day following the Depositary settlement date. Such credits or any transactions in such notes settled during that processing will be reported to the relevant Euroclear participants or Clearstream participants on that following business day. Cash received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of notes by or through a Clearstream participant or a Euroclear participant to a Depositary participant will be received with value on the Depositary settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement with the Depoistary.

        Although the Depositary, Clearstream and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of notes among participants of the Depositary, Clearstream and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform those procedures and those procedures may be modified or discontinued at any time. Neither we nor the paying agent will have any responsibility for the performance by the Depositary, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective direct or indirect participants of their obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

MATERIAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        Each of these summaries under this section "Material Income Tax Considerations" is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular holder and no representation is made with respect to the United States federal tax consequences or Canadian tax consequences to any particular holder. Accordingly, prospective purchasers should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the United States federal tax consequences or Canadian tax considerations relevant to them, having regard to their particular circumstances.

Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

        This section describes the material United States federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of the notes we are offering. It applies only to holders who acquire notes in the offering at the offering price and who hold their notes as capital assets for United States federal income tax purposes. This section does not apply to members of a class of holders subject to special rules, such as a dealer in securities, a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, a bank, a life insurance company, a tax-exempt organization, a person that owns notes that are a hedge or that are hedged against interest rate risks, a person that owns notes as part of a straddle or conversion transaction for United States federal income tax purposes, a person that purchases or sells notes as part of a wash sale for United States federal income tax purposes, or a United States holder (as defined below) whose functional currency for tax purposes is not the United States dollar. If notes are purchased at a price other than the offering price, the amortizable bond premium or market discount rules may also apply. Holders should consult their own tax advisor regarding this possibility. This section is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations under the Code, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

        This section applies only to United States holders. A United States holder is a beneficial owner of a note who is a citizen or resident of the United States, a domestic corporation, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source, or a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

        If a partnership (or other entity, organized within or without the United States, treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) holds notes, the tax treatment of a partner as beneficial owner of notes generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A partner in a partnership holding the notes should consult its tax advisor with regard to the United States federal income tax treatment of an investment in the notes.

Payments of Interest

        United States holders will be taxed on interest on the notes as ordinary income at the time the interest is received or when it accrues, depending on the holder's method of accounting for tax purposes.

        Interest paid by us on the notes is income from sources outside the United States subject to the rules regarding the foreign tax credit allowable to a United States holder and will, depending on the

S-27

---

Table of Contents

United States holder's circumstances, be either "passive" or "general" category income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit.

Purchase, Sale and Retirement of the Notes

        A United States holder's tax basis in a note generally will be its cost. A United States holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or retirement of a note equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or retirement, excluding any amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, and such holder's tax basis in the note. Capital gain of a noncorporate United States holder is generally taxed at preferential rates where the holder has a holding period greater than one year.

Medicare Tax

        For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, a United States holder that is an individual or estate, or a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from such tax, is subject to a 3.8% tax on the lesser of (1) the United States holder's "net investment income" for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the United States holder's modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals will be between $125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual's circumstances). A holder's net investment income generally includes its interest income and its net gains from the disposition of notes, unless such interest income or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). If you are a United States holder that is an individual, estate or trust, you are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to your income and gains in respect of your investment in the notes.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

        For noncorporate United States holders, information reporting requirements, on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099, generally will apply to payments of principal and interest on a note within the United States, including payments made by wire transfer from outside the United States to an account maintained in the United States, and the payment of the proceeds from the sale of a note effected at a United States office of a broker. Additionally, backup withholding will apply to such payments if a noncorporate United States holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number, is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that the holder has failed to report all interest and dividends required to be shown on the holder's United States federal income tax returns, or in certain circumstances, fails to comply with applicable certification requirements.

Information with Respect to Foreign Financial Assets

        Owners of "specified foreign financial assets" with an aggregate value in excess of $50,000 (and in certain circumstances, a higher threshold) may be required to file an information report with respect to such assets with their tax returns. "Specified foreign financial assets" may include financial accounts maintained by foreign financial institutions, as well as the following, but only if they are not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions: (i) stocks and securities issued by non-United States persons, (ii) financial instruments and contracts held for investment that have non-United States issuers or counterparties, and (iii) interests in foreign entities. United States holders that are individuals are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of this reporting requirement to their ownership of the notes.

Material Canadian Income Tax Considerations

        In the opinion of McCarthy Tétrault LLP, our Canadian counsel, the following is, as of the date hereof, a general summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") applicable to a purchaser of notes pursuant to the prospectus and this prospectus supplement who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act and any applicable tax treaty (i) is not resident or deemed to be resident in Canada, (ii) deals with the Corporation at arm's length; (iii) deals at arm's length with any transferee who is resident or deemed to be resident in Canada and to whom the purchaser assigns or otherwise transfers the note; (iv) is not a "specified shareholder" (as defined in the Tax Act for purposes of the thin capitalization rules contained in subsection 18(4) of the Tax Act) of the Corporation or a person that does not deal at arm's length with a specified shareholder of the Corporation and (v) does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold a note in carrying on business in Canada (a "Non-Resident Holder"). This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder, proposed amendments to the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder publicly announced prior to the date of this prospectus supplement (the "Proposed Amendments") and counsel's understanding of the current published administrative practices of the Canada Revenue Agency in effect as of the date hereof. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to a Non-Resident Holder and does not anticipate any changes in law or administrative practice, nor does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign tax considerations, which may differ significantly from those discussed herein. There can be no assurance that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as proposed or at all. Special rules, which are not discussed below, may apply to a Non-Resident Holder that is an insurer which carries on business in Canada and elsewhere. This summary assumes that no amount paid or payable as, or on account or in lieu of payment of, interest will be in respect of a debt or other obligation to pay an amount to a person who does not deal at arm's length with the Corporation for purposes of the Tax Act.

        Under the Tax Act, the payment of interest, principal or premium, if any, to a Non-Resident Holder of a note by the Corporation will be exempt from Canadian non-resident withholding tax. No other taxes on income or capital gains will be payable under the Tax Act in respect of the acquisition, holding, redemption or disposition of a note by a Non-Resident Holder, or the receipt of interest, principal or premium thereon by a Non-Resident Holder solely as a consequence of such acquisition, holding, redemption or disposition of a note.

        The underwriters propose to offer some of the notes directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and some of the notes to dealers at the public offering price less a concession not to exceed 0.400% of the principal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes and 0.250% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes. The underwriters may allow, and dealers may reallow, a concession not to exceed 0.250% of the principal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes and 0.200% of the Floating Rate Notes on sales to other dealers. After the initial offering of the notes to the public, the representatives may change the public offering price, concessions and other selling terms.

        In connection with the offering, each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, on behalf of the underwriters, may purchase and sell notes in the open market. These transactions may include over-allotment, syndicate covering transactions and stabilizing transactions. Over-allotment involves syndicate sales of notes in excess of the principal amount of notes to be purchased by the underwriters in the offering, which creates a syndicate short position. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the notes in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases of notes made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes while the offering is in progress.

        Any of these activities may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. They may also cause the price of the notes to be higher than the price that otherwise would exist in the open market in the absence of these transactions. The underwriters may conduct these transactions in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. If the underwriters commence any of these transactions, they may discontinue them at any time. There will be no obligation on J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC to engage in such activities.

        The notes are new issues of securities with no established trading market. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or on any automated dealer quotation system. We have been advised that the underwriters may make a market in both series of the notes but are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active public market for the notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected.

        The following table shows the underwriting commissions that we will pay the underwriters in connection with this offering (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the notes).

        We estimate that our total expenses for this offering, excluding underwriting commissions, will be US$300,000.

        The notes may not be, directly or indirectly, offered, sold or delivered in Canada or to residents of Canada in contravention of the securities laws of any province or territory of Canada. Each underwriter

has agreed that it will not offer, sell or deliver any notes purchased by it in Canada or to residents of Canada in contravention of the securities laws of any province or territory of Canada.

        To the extent any underwriter that is not a U.S. registered broker-dealer intends to effect sales of notes in the United States, it will do so through one or more U.S. registered broker-dealers in accordance with the applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations.

        The underwriters or their affiliates perform and have performed commercial banking, investment banking and advisory services for us from time to time for which they receive and have received customary fees and expenses. The underwriters may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of their business. In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

        Certain of the underwriters are affiliates of banks that are currently lenders to us (the "Lenders") under credit facilities extended to the Corporation or its subsidiary, Enbridge (U.S.) Inc. (the "Enbridge Credit Facilities") and as a result under applicable Canadian securities legislation we may be considered to be a connected issuer to such underwriters. We are in compliance with the terms of the Enbridge Credit Facilities and none of the Lenders were involved in the decision to offer the notes or in the determination of the terms of the distribution of the notes.

        If any of the underwriters or their affiliates has a lending relationship with us or our affiliates, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates have hedged and are likely in the future to hedge, and certain other of those underwriters of their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our our affiliates' securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby.

        A prospectus supplement in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by one or more of the underwriters.

        We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.

        We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the date specified on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, which will be the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as "T+5"). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on the date of this prospectus supplement or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisor.

Base Shelf Prospectus

No securities regulatory authority has expressed an opinion about these securities and it is an offense to claim otherwise.

This short form base shelf prospectus has been filed under legislation in each of the provinces of Canada that permits certain information about these securities to be determined after this prospectus has become final and that permits the omission from this short form base shelf prospectus of that information. The legislation requires the delivery to purchasers of a prospectus supplement containing the omitted information within a specified period of time after agreeing to purchase any of these securities.

This short form prospectus constitutes a public offering of these securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such securities.

Information has been incorporated by reference in this short form prospectus from documents filed with securities commissions or similar authorities in Canada. Copies of the documents incorporated herein by reference may be obtained on request without charge from the Corporate Secretary of Enbridge Inc., Suite 3000, 425 - 1st Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta, T2P 3L8 (telephone (403) 231-3900), and are also available electronically at www.sedar.com.

PREFERENCE SHARES

        We may from time to time offer our debt securities, common shares and cumulative redeemable preference shares (the "preference shares" and, together with our debt securities and common shares, the "Securities"), up to an aggregate initial offering price of US$5,000,000,000 (or its equivalent in Canadian dollars or any other currency or currency unit used to denominate the Securities) during the 25 month period that this short form base shelf prospectus (the "Prospectus"), including any amendments hereto, remains valid.

        THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") NOR HAS THE SEC PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

        This offering is made by a foreign issuer that is permitted, under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States of America (the "United States"), to prepare this Prospectus in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements. Prospective investors should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements incorporated herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), and are subject to Canadian and United States auditing and auditor independence standards.

        Prospective investors should be aware that the acquisition of the Securities may have tax consequences both in the United States and Canada. Such tax consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein or in any applicable Prospectus Supplement (as defined herein). You should read the tax discussion under "Certain Income Tax Considerations" herein and in any applicable Prospectus Supplement.

        The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Corporation is incorporated under the laws of Canada, that most of its officers and directors are residents of Canada, that some of the experts named in this Prospectus are residents of Canada, and that all or a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation and said persons are located outside the United States.

        The specific variable terms of any offering of Securities will be set forth in a shelf prospectus supplement (a "Prospectus Supplement") including, where applicable: (i) in the case of common shares or preference shares, the number of shares offered and the offering price; and (ii) in the case of debt securities, the designation, any limit on the aggregate principal amount, the currency or currency unit, the maturity, the offering price, whether payment on the debt securities will be senior or subordinated to our other liabilities and obligations, whether the debt securities will bear interest, the interest rate or method of determining the interest

        This Prospectus does not qualify for issuance debt securities in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to one or more underlying interests including, for example, an equity or debt security, a statistical measure of economic or financial performance including, but not limited to, any currency, consumer price or mortgage index, or the price or value of one or more commodities, indices or other items, or any other item or formula, or any combination or basket of the foregoing items, other than as required to provide for an interest rate that is adjusted for inflation. For greater certainty, this Prospectus may qualify for issuance debt securities in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to published rates of a central banking authority or one or more financial institutions, such as a prime rate or a bankers' acceptance rate, or to recognized market benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, EURIBOR or a U.S. federal funds rate.

See "Risk Factors".

        The Corporation may sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals, directly to one or more purchasers pursuant to applicable statutory exemptions or through agents. See "Plan of Distribution". The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent engaged in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including the method of distribution, the proceeds to the Corporation and any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents and any other material terms of offering of such Securities.

CERTAIN AVAILABLE INFORMATION

        The Corporation has filed with the SEC under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), a registration statement on Form F-10 relating to the Securities and of which this Prospectus forms a part. This Prospectus does not contain all of the information set forth in such registration statement, certain items of which are contained in the exhibits to the registration statement as permitted or required by the rules and regulations of the SEC. See "Documents Filed as Part of the Registration Statement". Statements made in this Prospectus as to the contents of any contract, agreement or other document referred to are not necessarily complete, and in each instance, reference is made to the exhibit, if applicable, for a more complete description of the relevant matter, each such statement being qualified in its entirety by such reference. Items of information omitted from this Prospectus but contained in the registration statement will be available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

        The Corporation is subject to the information requirements of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "U.S. Exchange Act"), and in accordance therewith files reports and other information with the SEC. Under the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States and Canada, such reports and other information may be prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada, which requirements are different from those of the United States. The Corporation is exempt from the rules under the U.S. Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and its officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the U.S. Exchange Act. Under the U.S. Exchange Act, the Corporation is not required to publish financial statements as promptly as United States companies. Such reports and other information will be available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        This Prospectus, including documents incorporated by reference into this Prospectus, contains both historical and forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act and Section 21E of the U.S. Exchange Act. This information has been included to provide readers with information about the Corporation and its subsidiaries, including management's assessment of Enbridge's and its subsidiaries' future plans and operations. This information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "anticipate", "expect", "project", "estimate", "forecast", "plan", "intend", "target", "believe" and similar words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding an outlook. Forward-looking information or statements included or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: expected earnings/(loss) or adjusted earnings/(loss); expected earnings/(loss) or adjusted earnings/(loss) per share; expected future cash flows; expected costs related to projects under construction; expected in-service dates for projects under construction;

3

---

expected capital expenditures; estimated future dividends; and expected costs related to leak remediation and potential insurance recoveries.

        Although Enbridge believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable based on the information available on the date such statements are made and processes used to prepare the information, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and readers are cautioned against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. By their nature, these statements involve a variety of assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Material assumptions include assumptions about:

•

the expected supply and demand for crude oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids and green energy;



•

prices of crude oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids and green energy;



•

expected exchange rates, inflation and interest rates;



•

the availability and price of labour and pipeline construction materials;



•

operational reliability;



•

customer and regulatory project approvals;



•

maintenance of support and regulatory approvals for the Corporation's projects;



•

anticipated in-service dates; and



•

weather.

        Assumptions regarding the expected supply and demand of crude oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids and green energy, and the prices of these commodities, are material to and underlie all forward-looking statements. These factors are relevant to all forward-looking statements as they may impact current and future levels of demand for the Corporation's services. Similarly, exchange rates, inflation and interest rates impact the economies and business environments in which the Corporation operates, may impact levels of demand for the Corporation's services and cost of inputs, and are therefore inherent in all forward-looking statements. Due to the interdependencies and correlation of these macroeconomic factors, the impact of any one assumption on a forward-looking statement cannot be determined with certainty, particularly with respect to expected earnings/(loss) or adjusted earnings/(loss) and associated per share amounts, or estimated future dividends. The most relevant assumptions associated with forward-looking statements on projects under construction, including estimated in-service dates and expected capital expenditures, include:

•

the availability and price of labour and pipeline construction materials;



•

the effects of inflation and foreign exchange rates on labour and material costs;



•

the effects of interest rates on borrowing costs; and



•

the impact of weather and customer and regulatory approvals on construction schedules.

        Enbridge's forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties pertaining to operating performance, regulatory parameters, project approval and support, weather, economic and competitive conditions, exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices and supply and demand for commodities, including but not limited to those risks and uncertainties discussed in this Prospectus and in documents incorporated by reference into this Prospectus. The impact of any one risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as these are interdependent and Enbridge's future course of action depends on management's assessment of all information available at the relevant time. Except to the extent required by law, Enbridge assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made in this Prospectus or otherwise, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, attributable to Enbridge or persons acting on the Corporation's behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.

THE CORPORATION

        Enbridge is a North American leader in delivering energy. As a transporter of energy, Enbridge operates, in Canada and the United States, the world's longest crude oil and liquids transportation system. The Corporation also has significant and growing involvement in natural gas gathering, transmission and midstream businesses and an increasing involvement in power transmission. As a distributor of energy, Enbridge owns and operates Canada's largest natural gas distribution company and provides distribution services in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and New York State. As a generator of energy, Enbridge has interests in close to 1,300 megawatts of renewable and alternative energy generating capacity and is expanding its interests in wind, solar and geothermal. Enbridge has approximately 10,000 employees and contractors, primarily in Canada and the United States.

        The Corporation was incorporated on April 13, 1970 under the Companies Act of the Northwest Territories and was continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act on December 15, 1987. The registered office and principal place of business of the Corporation are at Suite 3000, 425 - 1st Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta, T2P 3L8.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities will be added to the general funds of the Corporation to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include reducing outstanding indebtedness and financing capital expenditures, investments and working capital requirements of the Corporation. Specific information about the use of proceeds from the sale of any Securities will be set forth in a Prospectus Supplement. The Corporation may invest funds that it does not immediately require in short-term marketable debt securities. The Corporation expects that it may, from time to time, issue securities other than pursuant to this Prospectus.

        The net proceeds to be received by the Corporation from the sale of the Securities from time to time under this Prospectus are not expected to be applied to fund any specific project. The Corporation's overall corporate strategy and major initiatives supporting its strategy are summarized in the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2012, as modified or superseded by information contained in the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and any subsequent periods, incorporated herein by reference.

EARNINGS COVERAGE RATIO

        The following earnings coverage ratios have been calculated on a consolidated basis for the respective 12 month periods ended December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013 and are derived from audited financial information in the case of December 31, 2012 and unaudited financial information in the case of March 31, 2013, in each case prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following ratios give pro forma effect to the issuance by the Corporation of 16,000,000 Series 1 Shares pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated March 20, 2013 and the issuance by the Corporation of 24,000,000 Series 3 Shares pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated May 30, 2013. Adjustments for other normal course issuances and repayments of long-term debt subsequent to December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013 would not materially affect the ratios and, as a result, have not been made. The earnings coverage ratios set forth below do not purport to be indicative of the earnings coverage ratios for any future periods.

5

---

        The Corporation evaluates its performance using a variety of measures. Earnings coverage discussed above is not defined under U.S. GAAP and, therefore, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net earnings as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as an indicator of the Corporation's financial performance or liquidity. This measure is not necessarily comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company.

        The Corporation's dividend requirements on all of its preference shares, including giving pro forma effect to issuances subsequent to December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, and adjusted to a before tax equivalent using an effective income tax rate of 17% at March 31, 2013 and 12% at December 31, 2012, amounted to approximately $219 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012 and approximately $233 million for the 12 months ended March 31, 2013. The Corporation's interest requirements for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012 amounted to approximately $999 million and for the 12 months ended March 31, 2013 amounted to approximately $1,008 million. The Corporation's earnings before interest and income tax for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012 were approximately $1,617 million, which is 1.3 times the Corporation's aggregate dividend and interest requirements for this period. The Corporation's earnings before interest and income tax for the 12 months ended March 31, 2013 were approximately $1,663 million, which is 1.3 times the Corporation's aggregate dividend and interest requirements for this period.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

        In this section, the terms "Corporation" and "Enbridge" refer only to Enbridge Inc. and not to its subsidiaries. The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the debt securities. The Corporation will provide particular terms and provisions of a series of debt securities and a description of how the general terms and provisions described below may apply to that series in a Prospectus Supplement. Prospective investors should rely on information in the applicable Prospectus Supplement if it is different from the following information.

        The debt securities will be issued under an indenture dated February 25, 2005, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated March 1, 2012, each between Enbridge and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the "Trustee") (the indenture as amended and supplemented, the "Indenture"). The Indenture is subject to and governed by the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. A form of the Indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this Prospectus is a part and is available as described above under "Certain Available Information". The following is a summary of the Indenture. For further details, prospective investors should refer to the Indenture.

        The Corporation may issue debt securities and incur additional indebtedness other than through the offering of debt securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

General

        The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities which may be issued under the Indenture. It provides that debt securities will be in registered form, may be issued from time to time in one or more series and may be denominated and payable in U.S. dollars or any other currency. Material Canadian and United States federal income tax considerations applicable to any debt securities, and special tax considerations applicable to the debt securities denominated in a currency or currency unit other than Canadian or U.S. dollars, will be described in the Prospectus Supplement relating to the offering of debt securities.

        The Prospectus Supplement will set forth the following terms relating to the debt securities being offered:

•

the title of the debt securities of the series;



•

any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of the series;



•

the party to whom any interest on a debt security of the series shall be payable;



•

the date or dates on which the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any debt securities of the series is payable;

6

•

the obligation, if any, of the Corporation to redeem or purchase any debt securities of the series pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provisions or at the option of the Holder thereof and the terms and conditions upon which debt securities of the series may be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part pursuant to such obligation;



•

if other than denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000, the denominations in which the debt securities are issuable;



•

if the amount of principal of or any premium or interest on any debt securities of the series may be determined with reference to an index or pursuant to a formula, the manner in which such amounts shall be determined;



•

if other than U.S. dollars, the currency, currencies or currency units in which the principal of or any premium or interest on any debt securities of the series will be payable, and any related terms;



•

if the principal of or any premium or interest on any debt securities of the series is to be payable, at the election of the Corporation or the holders, in one or more currencies or currency units other than that or those in which the debt securities are stated to be payable, specific information relating to the currency, currencies or currency units, and the terms and conditions relating to any such election;



•

if other than the entire principal amount, the portion of the principal amount of any debt securities of the series that is payable upon acceleration of maturity;



•

if the principal amount payable at maturity of the debt securities of the series is not determinable prior to maturity, the amount that is deemed to be the principal amount prior to maturity for purposes of the debt securities and the Indenture;



•

if applicable, that the debt securities of the series are subject to defeasance and/or covenant defeasance;



•

if applicable, that the debt securities of the series will be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities and, if so, the depositary for the global securities, the form of any legend or legends which will be borne by such global securities and any additional terms related to the exchange, transfer and registration of securities issued in global form;



•

any addition to or change in the Events of Default applicable to the debt securities of the series and any change in the right of the Trustee or the holders of the debt securities to accelerate the maturity of the debt securities of the series;



•

any addition to or change in the covenants described in this Prospectus applicable to the debt securities of the series;



•

if the debt securities are to be subordinated to other of the Corporation's obligations, the terms of the subordination and any related provisions;



•

whether the debt securities will be convertible into securities or other property, including the Corporation's common stock or other securities, whether in addition to, or in lieu of, any payment of principal or other amount or otherwise, and whether at the option of the Corporation or otherwise, the terms and conditions relating to conversion of the debt securities, and any other provisions relating to the conversion of the debt securities;



•

the obligation, if any, of the Corporation to pay to holders of any debt securities of the series amounts as may be necessary so that net payments on the debt security, after deduction or withholding for or on

7

---

account of any present or future taxes and other governmental charges imposed by any taxing authority upon or as a result of payments on the securities, will not be less than the gross amount provided in the debt security, and the terms and conditions, if any, on which the Corporation may redeem the debt securities rather than pay such additional amounts;

•

whether the Corporation will undertake to list the debt securities of the series on any securities exchange or automated interdealer quotation system; and



•

any other terms of the series of debt securities.

        Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Indenture does not afford the holders the right to tender debt securities to Enbridge for repurchase or provide for any increase in the rate or rates of interest at which the debt securities will bear interest, in the event Enbridge should become involved in a highly leveraged transaction or in the event of a change in control of Enbridge.

        Debt securities may be issued under the Indenture bearing no interest or interest at a rate below the prevailing market rate at the time of issuance, and may be offered and sold at a discount below their stated principal amount. The Canadian and United States federal income tax consequences and other special considerations applicable to any such discounted debt securities or other debt securities offered and sold at par which are treated as having been issued at a discount for Canadian and/or United States federal income tax purposes will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

        Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Enbridge may, without the consent of the holders thereof, reopen a previous issue of a series of debt securities and issue additional debt securities of such series.

Ranking and Other Indebtedness

        Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable Prospectus Supplement, the debt securities will be unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of the Corporation's other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Enbridge is a holding company that conducts substantially all of its operations and holds substantially all of its assets through its subsidiaries. As at March 31, 2013, the long-term debt (excluding the current portion, as well as guarantees and intercompany obligations between the Corporation and its subsidiaries) of Enbridge's subsidiaries totalled approximately $13.8 billion. The debt securities issued under this Prospectus will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities, including trade payables and other indebtedness, of Enbridge's subsidiaries.

Form, Denominations and Exchange

        Debt securities will be issuable solely as registered securities without coupons in denominations of US$1,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000, or in such other denominations as may be set out in the terms of the debt securities of any particular series. The Indenture also provides that debt securities of a series may be issuable in global form.

        Registered securities of any series will be exchangeable for other registered securities of the same series and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor of different authorized denominations. However, in the event there are debt securities issued that are to be convertible into other securities of the Corporation, no amounts will be payable to convert those debt securities.

        The applicable Prospectus Supplement may indicate the places to register a transfer of debt securities, if other than the corporate trust office of the Trustee. Except for certain restrictions set forth in the Indenture, no service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the debt securities, but the Corporation may, in certain instances, require a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charges payable in connection with these transactions.

        The Corporation shall not be required to: (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange debt securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of debt securities of that series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption; (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any registered security, or portion thereof, called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any registered security being redeemed in part; or (iii) issue, register the transfer of or exchange any debt securities which have been surrendered for repayment at the option of the holder, except the portion, if any, thereof not to be so repaid.

---

Payment

        Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on debt securities will be made at the corporate trust office of the Trustee, 60 Wall Street, 27th Floor, New York, New York, 10005, or the Corporation may choose to pay principal, interest and any premium by (i) check mailed or delivered to the address of the person entitled at the address appearing in the security register of the Trustee or (ii) wire transfer to an account located in the United States of the person entitled to receive payments as specified in the securities register.

        Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, payment of any interest will be made to the persons in whose name the debt securities are registered at the close of business on the day or days specified by the Corporation.

Global Securities

        The registered debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in global form (a "Global Security") and will be registered in the name of and be deposited with a depository (the "Depositary"), or its nominee, each of which will be identified in the Prospectus Supplement, if the depository is other than The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") and if the Depositary's nominee is other than Cede & Co. Unless and until exchanged, in whole or in part, for debt securities in definitive registered form, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such Global Security to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of the Depositary or a nominee of the successor.

        Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to a series of debt securities, DTC, New York, New York, will act as the depositary for the debt securities. The debt securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co., DTC's nominee. DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the U.S. Exchange Act. Direct participants in DTC include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations.

        If other than as described below, the specific terms of the depository arrangement with respect to any portion of a particular series of debt securities to be represented by a Global Security will be described in the Prospectus Supplement relating to such series. The Corporation anticipates that the following provisions will apply to all depository arrangements.

        Upon the issuance of a Global Security, the Depositary therefor or its nominee will credit, on its book entry and registration system, the respective principal amounts of the debt securities represented by the Global Security to the accounts of such persons having accounts with such Depositary or its nominee ("participants"). Such accounts shall be designated by the underwriters, dealers or agents participating in the distribution of the debt securities or by Enbridge if such debt securities are offered and sold directly by the Corporation. Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Security will be limited to participants or persons that may hold beneficial interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary therefor or its nominee (with respect to interests of participants) or by participants or persons that hold through participants (with respect to interests of persons other than participants). The laws of some states in the United States may require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form.

        So long as the Depositary for a Global Security or its nominee is the registered owner of the Global Security, such Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the debt securities represented by the Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security will not be entitled to have debt securities of the series represented by the Global Security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of debt securities of such series in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture.

9

---

        Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in debt securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the debt securities is discontinued or if there shall have occurred and be continuing an event of default under the Indenture. The Depositary will have no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the debt securities; the Depositary's records will reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts the debt securities are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The direct and indirect participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

        Any payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on Global Securities registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee will be made to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the Global Security representing such debt securities. None of Enbridge, the Trustee or any paying agent for debt securities represented by the Global Securities will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of the Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

        The Corporation expects that the Depositary for a Global Security or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium or interest, will credit participants' accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of the Global Security as shown on the records of such Depositary or its nominee. The Corporation also expects that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in "street name", and will be the responsibility of such participants.

        Conveyance of notices and other communications by the Depositary to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants, and by direct and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial owners of debt securities may wish to take certain steps to augment transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the debt securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Indenture.

        Any redemption notices relating to the debt securities will be sent to the Depositary. If less than all of the debt securities of a series are being redeemed, the Depositary may determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in the series to be redeemed. Neither the Depositary nor its nominee will consent or vote with respect to debt securities unless authorized by a direct participant in accordance with the Depositary's procedures. Under its procedures, the Depositary may send a proxy to the Corporation as soon as possible after the record date for a consent or vote. The proxy would assign the Depositary's nominee's consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts the debt securities are credited on the relevant record date.

        No Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any person other than the Depositary for the Global Security or its nominee unless (1) the Depositary (A) has notified the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the U.S. Exchange Act, or (2) there shall have occurred and be continuing an event of default under the Indenture.

Except to the extent that covenants are modified, deleted or added with respect to any series of debt securities, as provided in an applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to such series of debt securities, the Corporation will make the covenant described under the heading "— Limitation on Security Interests" for the holders of the senior debt securities, but not for the holders of subordinated debt securities, and will make each of the covenants described under the heading "— Other Indenture Covenants" for the holders of all debt securities, unless otherwise indicated in a Prospectus Supplement.

        This covenant has significant exceptions which allow the Corporation to incur or allow to exist over its properties and assets Permitted Encumbrances (as defined in the Indenture), which include, among other things:

•

Security Interests existing on the date of the first issuance of debt securities by the Corporation under the Indenture or arising after that date under contractual commitments entered into prior to that date;

Corporation will covenant with respect to each series of debt securities to (1) duly and punctually pay amounts due on the debt securities; (2) maintain an office or agency where debt securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where debt securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to the Corporation may be served; (3) deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a certificate stating whether or not the Corporation is in default under the Indenture; (4) pay before delinquency, taxes, assessments and governmental charges and lawful claims for labour, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Corporation, subject to the right of the Corporation to contest the validity of a charge, assessment or claim in good faith; and (5) maintain and keep in good condition properties used or useful in the conduct of its business and make necessary repairs and improvements as in the judgment of the Corporation are necessary to carry on the Corporation's business; provided, that the Corporation may discontinue operating or maintaining any of its properties if, in the judgment of the Corporation, the discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of the Corporation's business and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the holders of the debt securities.

        Subject to the provision described under the heading "— Mergers, Consolidations and Sales of Assets" below, the Corporation will also covenant that it will do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and franchises; provided that the Corporation is not required to preserve any right or franchise if the board of directors of the Corporation determines that preservation of the right or franchise is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Corporation and that its loss is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the holders of the debt securities.

Waiver of Covenants

        Except as otherwise provided in an applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to any series of debt securities under the Indenture, the Corporation may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition in any covenant for such series, if before the time for such compliance the holders of a majority of the principal amount of the outstanding securities of the series waive compliance with the applicable term, provision or condition.

Mergers, Consolidations and Sales of Assets

        The Corporation may consolidate or amalgamate with or merge into or enter into any statutory arrangement for such purpose with any other person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any person, so long as, among other requirements:

Payment of Additional Amounts

        Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Corporation will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay to the holder of any debt security who is a non-resident of Canada under the Income Tax Act (Canada) such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment on such debt security, after deduction or withholding by the Corporation or any of its paying agents for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) imposed by the government of Canada (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) (collectively, "Canadian Taxes") upon or as a result of such payment, will not be less than the amount provided in such debt security or in such coupon to be then due and payable (and the Corporation will remit the full amount withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law). However, the Corporation will not be required to make any payment of additional amounts:

(a)

to any person in respect of whom such taxes are required to be withheld or deducted as a result of such person or any other person that has a beneficial interest in respect of any payment under the debt security not dealing at arm's length with the Corporation (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada));



(b)

to any person by reason of such person being connected with Canada (otherwise than merely by holding or ownership of any series of debt securities or receiving any payments or exercising any rights thereunder), including without limitation a non-resident insurer who carries on an insurance business in Canada and in a country other than Canada;



(c)

for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been so imposed but for: (i) the presentation by the holder of such debt security or coupon for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; or (ii) the holder's failure to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements if compliance is required by law, regulation, administrative practice or an applicable treaty as a precondition to exemption from or a reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, any such taxes, assessment or charge;



(d)

for or on account of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property tax or any similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;



(e)

for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from any payment to a person on a debt security if such payment can be made to such person without such withholding by at least one other paying agent the identity of which is provided to such person;



(f)

for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment on a debt security; or



(g)

for any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f);

nor will additional amounts be paid with respect to any payment on a debt security to a holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of Canada (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income for Canadian federal income tax purposes of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to payment of the additional amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of such debt security.

        The Corporation will furnish to the holders of the debt securities, within 30 days after the date of the payment of any Canadian Taxes is due under applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts or other documents evidencing such payment.

        Wherever in the Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to a debt security, such mention shall be

15

---

deemed to include mention of the payment of additional amounts to the extent that, in such context additional amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

Redemption

        If and to the extent specified in an applicable Prospectus Supplement, the debt securities of a series will be subject to redemption at the time or times specified therein, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption, upon the giving of a notice. Notice of redemption of the debt securities of such series will be given once not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption and will specify the date fixed for redemption.

Tax Redemption

        Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Prospectus Supplement, each series of debt securities will be subject to redemption at any time at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the debt securities, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption, upon the giving of the notice as described above, if the Corporation (or its successor) determines that (1) as a result of (A) any amendment to or change (including any announced prospective change) in the laws or related regulations of Canada (or the Corporation's successor's jurisdiction of organization) or of any applicable political subdivision or taxing authority or (B) any amendment to or change in an interpretation or application of such laws or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority announced or becoming effective on or after the date specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Corporation has or will become obligated to pay, on the next interest payment date for the debt securities of the series, additional amounts with respect to any debt security of the series as described under "— Payment of Additional Amounts" above, or (2) on or after the date specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, any action has been taken by any taxing authority of, or any decision has been rendered by a court in, Canada (or the Corporation's successor's jurisdiction of organization) or any applicable political subdivision or taxing authority, including any of those actions specified in (1) above, whether or not the action was taken or decision rendered with respect to the Corporation, or any change, amendment, application or interpretation is officially proposed, which, in the opinion of the Corporation's counsel, will result in the Corporation becoming obligated to pay, on the next interest payment date, additional amounts with respect to any debt security of the series, and the Corporation has determined that the obligation cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable available measures.

Provision of Financial Information

        The Corporation will file with the Trustee, within 15 days after it files them with the SEC, copies of its annual report and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Corporation is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the U.S. Exchange Act. If the Corporation is not required to file such information, documents or reports with the SEC, then the Corporation will file with the Trustee such periodic reports as the Corporation files with the securities commission or corresponding securities regulatory authority in each of the Provinces of Canada within 15 days after it files them with such securities commissions or securities regulatory authorities.

Events of Default

        Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular series of debt securities, the following events are defined in the Indenture as "Events of Default" with respect to debt securities of any series:

(a)

the failure of the Corporation to pay when due the principal of or premium (if any) on any debt securities or, if the debt securities are convertible into other securities, any amounts due upon the conversion of the debt securities;



(b)

the failure of the Corporation, continuing for 30 days, to pay any interest due on any debt securities;



(c)

the failure of the Corporation to deposit any sinking fund payment due on any debt securities;

16

---

(d)

the breach or violation of any covenant or condition (other than as referred to in (a) and (b) above), which continues for a period of 60 days after notice from the Trustee or from holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of all outstanding debt securities of any series affected thereby;



(e)

default in payment at maturity, including any applicable grace period, or default in the performance or observance of any other covenant, term, agreement or condition, with respect to any single item of Indebtedness in an amount in excess of 5% of Consolidated Shareholders' Equity or with respect to more than two items of Indebtedness in an aggregate amount in excess of 10% of Consolidated Shareholders' Equity and, if such Indebtedness has not already matured in accordance with its terms, such indebtedness has been accelerated, if such Indebtedness has not been discharged or such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled within a period of 10 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Corporation by the Trustee or to the Corporation and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series a written notice specifying the default and requiring the Corporation to cause such Indebtedness to be discharged or cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled, provided that if the Indebtedness is discharged or the applicable default under the indebtedness is waived, then the Event of Default under the Indenture will be deemed waived;



(f)

certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving the Corporation; or



(g)

any other Event of Default provided with respect to debt securities of that series.

        If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any series of debt securities, then and in every such case the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such affected series may, subject to any subordination provisions thereof, declare the entire principal amount (or, if the debt securities of that series are original issue discount debt securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all debt securities of such series and all interest thereon to be immediately due and payable. However, at any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to any series of debt securities has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series, by written notice to the Corporation and the Trustee under certain circumstances (which include payment or deposit with the Trustee of outstanding principal, premium and interest, unless the Prospectus Supplement applicable to an issue of debt securities otherwise provides), may rescind and annul such acceleration.

        The Indenture provides that, subject to the duty of the Trustee during default to act with the required standard of care, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders, unless such holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity. Subject to such provisions for indemnification of the Trustee and certain other limitations set forth in the Indenture, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all series affected by an Event of Default shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the debt securities of all series affected by such Event of Default.

        No holder of a debt security of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or a Trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless (a) such holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of such series affected by such Event of Default, (b) the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series affected by such Event of Default have made written request, and such holder or holders have offered reasonable indemnity, to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as Trustee, and (c) the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding, and has not received from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series affected by such Event of Default a direction inconsistent with such request, within 60 days after such notice, request and offer. However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the holder of a debt security for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on such debt security on or after the applicable due date specified in such debt security.

17

Modification and Waiver

        Modifications and amendments of the Indenture may be made by the Corporation and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority of the principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series issued under the Indenture affected by such modification or amendment; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security of such affected series: (1) change the stated maturity of the principal of, or any instalment of interest, if any, on any debt security; (2) reduce the principal amount of, or the premium, if any, or the rate of interest, if any, on any debt security; (3) change the place of payment; (4) change the currency or currency unit of payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any debt security; (5) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any debt security; (6) adversely affect any right to convert or exchange any debt security; (7) reduce the percentage of principal amount of outstanding debt securities of such series, the consent of the holders of which is required for modification or amendment of the Indenture or for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults; (8) modify the provisions of the Indenture relating to subordination in a manner that adversely affects the rights of the holders of debt securities; or (9) modify any provisions of the Indenture relating to the modification and amendment of the Indenture or the waiver of past defaults or covenants except as otherwise specified in the Indenture.

        The holders of a majority of the principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of that series waive, insofar as that series is concerned, compliance by the Corporation with certain restrictive provisions of the Indenture, including the covenants and events of default. The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of any series may waive any past default under the Indenture with respect to that series, except a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) and interest, if any, on any debt security of that series or in respect of a provision which under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security of that series. The Indenture or the debt securities may be amended or supplemented, without the consent of any holder of debt securities, in order, among other purposes, to cure any ambiguity or inconsistency or to make any change that does not have an adverse effect on the rights of any holder of debt securities.

Defeasance

        The Indenture provides that, at its option, the Corporation will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the outstanding debt securities of any series upon irrevocable deposit with the Trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government securities which will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and each instalment of interest, if any, on the outstanding debt securities of such series ("Defeasance") (except with respect to the authentication, transfer, exchange or replacement of debt securities or the maintenance of a place of payment and certain other obligations set forth in the Indenture). Such trust may only be established if among other things (1) the Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States stating that (a) the Corporation has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (b) since the date of execution of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that the holders of the outstanding debt securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such Defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Defeasance had not occurred; (2) the Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in Canada or a ruling from the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") to the effect that the holders of such outstanding debt securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income or other tax purposes as a result of such Defeasance and will be subject to Canadian federal or provincial income and other tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case had such Defeasance not occurred (and for the purposes of such opinion, such Canadian counsel shall assume that holders of the outstanding debt securities of such series include holders who are not resident in Canada); (3) no Event of Default or event that, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, shall constitute an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; (4) the Corporation is not an "insolvent person" within the meaning of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada); (5) the Corporation has

18

---

delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that such deposit shall not cause the Trustee or the trust so created to be subject to the United States Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and (6) other customary conditions precedent are satisfied. The Corporation may exercise its Defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its Covenant Defeasance option described in the following paragraph if the Corporation meets the conditions described in the preceding sentence at the time the Corporation exercises the Defeasance option.

        The Indenture provides that, at its option, the Corporation may omit to comply with covenants, including the covenants described above under the heading "Covenants", and such omission shall not be deemed to be an Event of Default under the Indenture and the outstanding debt securities upon irrevocable deposit with the Trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government securities which will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and each instalment of interest, if any, on the outstanding debt securities ("Covenant Defeasance"). If the Corporation exercises its Covenant Defeasance option, the obligations under the Indenture other than with respect to such covenants and the Events of Default other than with respect to such covenants shall remain in full force and effect. Such trust may only be established if, among other things, (1) the Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States to the effect that the holders of the outstanding debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; (2) the Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in Canada or a ruling from the CRA to the effect that the holders of such outstanding debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income or other tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to Canadian federal or provincial income and other tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case had such Covenant Defeasance not occurred (and for the purposes of such opinion, such Canadian counsel shall assume that holders of the outstanding debt securities include holders who are not resident in Canada); (3) no Event of Default or event that, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, shall constitute an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; (4) the Corporation is not an "insolvent person" within the meaning of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada); (5) the Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that such deposit shall not cause the Trustee or the trust so created to be subject to the United States Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and (6) other customary conditions precedent are satisfied.

Consent to Jurisdiction and Service

        Under the Indenture, the Corporation agrees to appoint CT Corporation System, 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10011, as its authorized agent for service of process in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the debt securities or the Indenture and for actions brought under federal or state securities laws in any federal or state court located in the city of New York, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction.

Governing Law

        The debt securities and the Indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL

        The following sets forth the terms and provisions of the existing capital of the Corporation. The following description is subject to, and qualified by reference to, the terms and provisions of the Corporation's articles and by-laws. The Corporation is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares and an unlimited number of preference shares, issuable in series.

Common Shares

        Each common share of the Corporation entitles the holder to one vote for each common share held at all meetings of shareholders of the Corporation, except meetings at which only holders of another specified class or series of shares are entitled to vote, to receive dividends if, as and when declared by the board of directors of the Corporation, subject to prior satisfaction of preferential dividends applicable to any preference shares, and to participate rateably in any distribution of the assets of the Corporation upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, subject to prior rights and privileges attaching to the preference shares.

        Under the dividend reinvestment and share purchase plan of the Corporation, registered shareholders may reinvest their dividends in additional common shares of the Corporation or make optional cash payments to purchase additional common shares, in either case, free of brokerage or other charges.

        The registrar and transfer agent for the common shares in Canada is CIBC Mellon Trust Company at its principal transfer offices in Vancouver, British Columbia, Calgary, Alberta, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Toronto, Ontario, Montreal, Québec and Halifax, Nova Scotia. The co-registrar and co-transfer agent for the common shares in the United States is Computershare Shareowner Services LLC at its principal office in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Shareholder Rights Plan

        The Corporation has a shareholder rights plan (the "Shareholder Rights Plan") that is designed to encourage the fair treatment of shareholders in connection with any take-over bid for the Corporation. Rights issued under the Shareholder Rights Plan become exercisable when a person, and any related parties, acquires or announces the intention to acquire 20% or more of the Corporation's outstanding common shares without complying with certain provisions set out in the Shareholder Rights Plan or without approval of the board of directors of the Corporation. Should such an acquisition or announcement occur, each rights holder, other than the acquiring person and related parties, will have the right to purchase common shares of the Corporation at a 50% discount to the market price at that time. For further particulars, reference should be made to the Shareholder Rights Plan, a copy of which may be obtained by contacting the Manager, Investor Relations, Enbridge, 3000, 425-1st Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta, T2P 3L8; telephone: 1-800-481-2804; fax 403-231-5780; email: investor.relations@enbridge.com.

Preference Shares

Shares Issuable in Series

        The preference shares may be issued at any time or from time to time in one or more series. Before any shares of a series are issued, the board of directors of the Corporation shall fix the number of shares that will form such series and shall, subject to the limitations set out in the articles of the Corporation, determine the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions to be attached to the preference shares of such series, except that no series shall be granted the right to vote at a general meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation or the right to be convertible or exchangeable for common shares, directly or indirectly.

        For preference shares issued that are to be convertible into other securities of the Corporation, including other series of preference shares, no amounts will be payable to convert those preference shares.

Priority

        The preference shares of each series shall rank on a parity with the preference shares of every other series with respect to dividends and return of capital and shall be entitled to a preference over the common shares and

20

---

over any other shares ranking junior to the preference shares with respect to priority in payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of the assets of the Corporation among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs.

Voting Rights

        Except as required by law, holders of the preference shares as a class shall not be entitled to receive notice of, to attend or to vote at any meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation, provided that the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attached to the preference shares as a class may be added to, changed or removed only with the approval of the holders of the preference shares given in such manner as may then be required by law, at a meeting of the holders of the preference shares duly called for that purpose.
