NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S.

Enbridge Inc. (TSX:ENB)(NYSE:ENB) ("Enbridge" or the "Company") today announced that as a result of strong investor demand for its previously announced offering of Cumulative Redeemable Minimum Rate Reset Preference Shares, Series 17 (the "Series 17 Preferred Shares"), the size of the offering has been increased to 30 million from 20 million. The aggregate gross proceeds of the offering will be $750 million with closing expected on or about November 23, 2016.

The holders of Series 17 Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive fixed cumulative dividends at an annual rate of $1.2875 per share, payable quarterly on the first day of March, June, September and December, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of Enbridge. The Series 17 Preferred Shares are expected to yield 5.15 per cent per annum, for the initial fixed rate period to, but excluding, March 1, 2022. The first quarterly dividend payment date is scheduled for March 1, 2016. The dividend rate will reset on March 1, 2022 and every five years thereafter at a rate equal to the sum of the then five-year Canadian Government bond yield plus 4.14 per cent, provided that, in any event, such rate shall not be less than 5.15 per cent per annum. The Series 17 Preferred Shares are redeemable by Enbridge, at its option, on March 1, 2022 and on March 1 of every fifth year thereafter.

The holders of Series 17 Preferred Shares will have the right to convert their shares into Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares, Series 18 (the "Series 18 Preferred Shares") on March 1, 2022 and on March 1 of every fifth year thereafter, subject to certain conditions. The holders of Series 18 Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive quarterly floating rate cumulative dividends, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of Enbridge, at a rate equal to the sum of the 90-day Government of Canada Treasury bill rate plus 4.14 per cent.

The offering is being made only in Canada by means of a prospectus. Proceeds are expected to be used to partially fund capital projects, to reduce existing indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes of the Company and its affiliates.
