<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shares
of Common Stock will, at the option of the Company, be newly issued shares purchased from the Company or shares purchased on the open market. Purchases on the open market will be
made through an independent agent appointed by the Company. The Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "HE." The closing price per share of the Common Stock on
October&nbsp;2, 2014 on the New York Stock Exchange was $26.56. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
purchase price of newly issued shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan directly from the Company will be the average of the high and low sales prices for Common Stock on the
composite tape for stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange on the business day prior to the purchase. The purchase price of Common Stock purchased on the open market will be the weighted average
price per share (adjusted for brokerage fees and commissions, any service charges and applicable taxes) of the aggregate number of shares purchased during the applicable investment period. Plan
participants bear the cost of brokerage fees and commissions, any related service charges and applicable taxes relating to shares of Common Stock purchased or sold on the open market. In addition, the
Company currently charges participants who reinvest Common Stock dividends or Preferred Stock dividends a fee of $0.50 per quarter (subject to change with prior notice) to defray in part the
administrative costs of the Plan incurred by the Company. The Company also charges other fees in certain situations and reserves the right to charge fees to participants to recover up to the actual
costs of the Plan. (See Questions 10, 24, 27 and 35 under "Description of the Plan".) </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investing in HEI Common Stock involves risk. Please see the risk factors described under the heading "Risk Factors" in HEI's Annual
Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and in any other documents that HEI files with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") after the date of this prospectus that are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully
consider these risks as well as other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including in subsequently filed current and periodic reports that update disclosures
relating to risk factors and provide additional and updated information. The risks and uncertainties described are not the only ones facing the Company and its subsidiaries. Additional risks and

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This prospectus, which includes the documents incorporated by reference, contains statements that are not based on historical facts but
are "forward-looking." Forward-looking statements, which include statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, and usually include words such as
"expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "predicts," "estimates" or similar expressions. In addition, any statements concerning future financial performance (including future
revenues, earnings, losses or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects and possible future actions, which may be provided by management, are also forward-looking statements. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Forward-looking
statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and the accuracy of assumptions concerning HEI
and its subsidiaries, the performance of the industries in which they do business and economic and market factors, among other things. These considerations include the risks and uncertainties
identified in this prospectus and in the incorporated documents. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and the actual results that HEI achieves may differ materially. In
addition, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are made and, except for its ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the federal
securities laws, HEI assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we are providing this cautionary statement to identify important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. The following risks, uncertainties and other important factors, in addition to those referenced under "Risk Factors" and
elsewhere in this prospectus and the documents described under "Where You Can Find More Information," including future documents filed with the SEC and deemed to be incorporated by reference, could

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hawaiian Electric Industries,&nbsp;Inc. ("HEI") was incorporated in 1981 under the laws of the State of Hawaii and is a holding
company whose principal subsidiaries are engaged in the electric public utility and bank businesses in the State of Hawaii. HEI's predecessor, Hawaiian Electric Company,&nbsp;Inc. ("Hawaiian
Electric"), was incorporated in 1891 under the laws of the Kingdom of Hawaii (now the State of Hawaii). As a result of a 1983 corporate reorganization, Hawaiian Electric became an HEI subsidiary and
the common shareholders of Hawaiian Electric became common shareholders of HEI. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hawaiian
Electric is a regulated electric public utility company engaged in the production, purchase, transmission, distribution and sale of electric energy on the island of Oahu, in the
State of Hawaii. Hawaiian Electric's subsidiaries, Hawaii Electric Light Company,&nbsp;Inc. ("Hawaii Electric Light"), acquired in 1970, and Maui Electric Company, Limited ("Maui Electric"),
acquired in 1968, are also regulated electric public utilities engaged in the production, purchase, transmission, distribution and sale of electricity in the State of Hawaii, on the island of Hawaii
in the case of Hawaii Electric Light, and on the islands of Maui, Lanai and Molokai in the case of Maui Electric. Hawaiian Electric and its subsidiaries serve approximately ninety-five percent (95%)
of the total population of the State of Hawaii in a service area of approximately 5,815 square miles. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;HEI's
other principal subsidiary is American Savings Bank, F.S.B. ("ASB"), one of the largest financial institutions in the State of Hawaii, with assets of $5.2&nbsp;billion as of
December&nbsp;31, 2013. ASB, acquired by HEI in 1988, is a federally chartered savings bank that provides a wide range of banking and other financial services to consumers and businesses within
Hawaii. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;HEI
is a legal entity separate and distinct from its various subsidiaries. As a holding company with no significant operations of its own, the principal sources of its funds are
dividends or other distributions from its operating subsidiaries, borrowings and sales of equity. The ability of certain of the Company's subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to
the Company is subject to contractual and regulatory restrictions, including the provisions of an agreement with the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission and the capital distribution regulations of the
Federal Reserve Board and Office </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The administrator of the Plan (the "Administrator") keeps records, sends periodic statements to participants and performs other clerical and administrative duties
relating to the Plan. The Administrator may be the Shareholder Services Division of the Company or may be one or more officers or employees of the Company or of its subsidiaries appointed by
designated executive officers of the Company, in which case an independent trustee (the "Trustee") shall be appointed, and shares under the Plan shall be registered in the name of the Trustee. The
Shareholder Services Division of the Company currently serves as the Administrator. The Company believes that having the Shareholder Services Division of the Company serve as Administrator, as
compared to having a registered broker-dealer or federally insured banking institution serve in that capacity, poses no additional material risks to participants. The Company believes this is because
the Administrator's duties are limited to clerical and administrative tasks such as keeping records and sending periodic statements, because the Company has an errors and omissions policy that covers
the Shareholder Services Division, and because the Company has established an escrow with a bank to hold optional cash investments pending investment pursuant to the Plan, thereby reducing the risk to
participants. (See Question 18.) </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any person or entity, whether or not a holder of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, is eligible to join the Plan, provided that (i)&nbsp;such person or entity
fulfills the prerequisites for participation described under Question 7 and (ii)&nbsp;participation would not violate securities or other laws of the state, territory or country where the
participant resides that are applicable to the Company, the Plan or the participant. If a beneficial owner of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock whose shares are registered in the name of another
(e.g.,&nbsp;a broker or bank nominee) would like such shares to participate in the Plan, the beneficial owner must first have the shares transferred into such beneficial owner's name. The Company
reserves the right to restrict or terminate participation in the Plan if it believes that such participation may be contrary to the general intent of the Plan or in violation of applicable law. A
participant must maintain at least one whole share in the Plan (increased to five whole shares from and after January&nbsp;1, 2015) to maintain a Plan account. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How do I enroll?  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Current participants will automatically be participants in the Plan as amended to date, and need do nothing to continue their participation. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;After
reviewing a copy of this prospectus, eligible applicants may join the Plan by completing, signing and submitting to the Administrator a "Shareholder Authorization Form" (for
holders of Common Stock or Preferred Stock) or a "Nonholder Enrollment Form" (for nonholders). Holders of Common Stock or Preferred Stock may elect in the applicable form to have dividends reinvested
in whole or in part, to make an initial cash investment or to make optional cash investments only. If a participant signs a Shareholder Authorization Form (in the case of holders of Common Stock or
Preferred Stock), dividends on all shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock registered in the participant's name or held under the Plan will automatically be reinvested under the Plan, unless the
participant elects on the form to receive dividends on all or a portion of such shares. If such a holder does not select an option, all dividends on Common Stock and Preferred Stock in such holder's
name, and on Common Stock held under the Plan for the holder, will be reinvested in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan. The execution of a Nonholder Enrollment Form (in the case of
nonholders) will result in the reinvestment of all dividends on shares held under the Plan for the participant, unless the participant notifies the Administrator in writing of a different investment
option. Nonholders must make an initial cash investment of not less than $250 and not more than $300,000. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Participants
may change any of the designations in the applicable form by sending a signed written request to the Administrator specifying the desired change. Any election to reinvest
dividends or to change any option with respect thereto will be effective on the next record date after the Administrator receives the new form. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>10.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are there any fees or charges to a participant in connection with purchases or sales under the Plan?  </I></FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, participants in the Plan will bear the cost of brokerage fees and commissions, any service charges and
applicable taxes related to shares purchased or sold on the open market. Under the Plan, the Company may charge participants fees to recover up to the actual administrative costs of the Plan. To
defray in part the costs the Company incurs in administering the Plan, the Company currently charges each participant who reinvests Common Stock or Preferred Stock dividends an administrative fee of
$0.50 per quarter. This fee currently does not apply to participants who do not reinvest dividends. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
$20 service fee (which increases to $25 from and after January&nbsp;1, 2015) will be assessed for each item that is returned for insufficient funds or other reasons due to the
negligence of the shareholder as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator may place a hold on the account until the "insufficient funds" fee is received, sell shares from the account to
collect the "insufficient funds" fee, or withhold the amount of the "insufficient funds" fee from future optional cash investments. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;See
Questions 27 and 35 for certain other fees charged under the Plan. The Company reserves the right at any time to change the amount of the fees it charges and to charge participants
(including those who do not reinvest dividends) other fees, including but not limited to administrative, setup and handling fees. Notices of such future changes or additional fees will be sent to
participants at least thirty (30)&nbsp;days prior to their effective date. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What is the source of shares purchased under the Plan?  </I></FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Common Stock will be obtained through purchases of authorized but unissued shares directly from the Company or through open market purchases of issued and
outstanding shares. The Company will not change the method of acquiring shares of Common Stock more than once in any three-month period. On the date of this prospectus, shares for the Plan are being
purchased through open market purchases of issued and outstanding shares. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>12.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How will open market purchases of Common Stock be made under the Plan?  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At such times as the Plan satisfies its requirements for shares through open market purchases of outstanding shares rather than direct issuances of authorized but
unissued shares, such open market purchases of Common Stock will be made through an independent agent (the "Broker") selected by the Company. Neither the Administrator, nor the Company, nor any
affiliate of the Company will directly or indirectly control or influence the prices or timing of open market purchases made by the Broker, the amount of shares to be purchased (other than specifying
the aggregate dollar amount to be invested), the manner of purchase of shares or the selection by the Broker of a broker or dealer through which purchases will be made. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>13.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What will be the price of shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan?  </I></FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The price of newly-issued shares purchased directly from the Company will be the average of the high and low sales prices of the Common Stock on the composite
tape for stocks listed on the New&nbsp;York Stock Exchange on the business day prior to the applicable Investment Date (as defined under Question 15)&nbsp;or the next preceding day on which the
Company's Common Stock is traded if there is no trade reported on that business day. The price of Common Stock purchased on the open market will be the weighted average price per share (adjusted for
brokerage fees and commissions, any service charges and applicable taxes) of the aggregate number of shares purchased on the open market during the applicable Investment Period (as defined under
Question 15). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>14.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How many shares of Common Stock will be purchased by the Plan for each participant?  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The number of shares to be purchased by the Plan for each participant will equal the amount of the participant's reinvested dividends and optional cash
investments, less administrative fees and amounts (if any) required to be withheld for tax purposes, divided by the purchase price of the shares (adjusted for brokerage fees and commissions, any
service charges and applicable taxes). Both whole shares and fractional shares (computed to four decimal places) will be credited by the Plan to the accounts of its participants. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>15.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When will purchases be made under the Plan?  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Newly-issued shares will be purchased from the Company on the applicable Investment Date, as defined below, and shares acquired on the open market will be
purchased during an investment period commencing on the applicable Investment Date and ending on the earlier of thirty (30)&nbsp;days thereafter or the date on which the required number of shares

accounts on the date purchased, and shares of Common Stock purchased on the open market will be credited to participants' accounts as of the settlement date of the purchase of the last

shares of Common Stock within thirty (30)&nbsp;days of the applicable Investment Date, and any funds not invested within an Investment Period, will be promptly returned, without interest, to the
participant. Funds to be invested during any Investment Period will be invested to the extent possible before funds from any subsequent Investment Period are invested, and funds related to different
Investment Periods will not be pooled for purposes of computing per share prices. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
"Investment Dates" for optional cash investments shall be the 15th&nbsp;and 30th&nbsp;days of each month (except that the second Investment Date for February will be the last day
of the month). The "Investment Dates" for Common Stock dividends and Preferred Stock dividends shall be the dividend payment date or within three (3)&nbsp;business days prior to the dividend payment
date (with settlement in such case occurring on or after the dividend payment date). The dividend payment date for Common Stock dividends is normally expected to be on or around the 10th&nbsp;day of
March, June, September and December each year, and for Preferred Stock is normally expected to be the 15th&nbsp;day of January, April, July and October each year, but the actual dates could vary. If
an Investment Date is not a business day based on the foregoing, the Investment Date will be the next succeeding business day. </FONT></P>

the Broker is unable to invest all cash dividends or optional cash investments in shares of Common Stock on the open market, the shares purchased by the Broker shall be allocated to
participants on a pro rata basis based, first, on reinvested dividends and, second, if any shares are remaining, on optional cash investments. Any funds remaining after such allocation will be
returned to participants. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Participants
may not select the precise time for purchases and a number of days may elapse before dividends and optional cash investments are invested in shares of Common Stock. Interest
will not be paid on cash dividends or optional cash investments prior to or after their investment in Common Stock or if for any reason such dividends and investments are not so invested. Any interest
or other earnings on dividends or optional cash investments will be the property of the Company. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash dividends to be reinvested will remain with the Company if reinvested on the dividend payment date in shares newly issued by the Company. To the extent
shares will not be so purchased on the dividend payment date or are to be purchased by the Plan on the open market, cash dividends will be delivered to an escrow account or to the Broker pending
investment concurrently with payment of cash dividends to nonparticipating shareholders. Such dividends will be credited to each participant's account under the Plan and will be automatically
reinvested to purchase additional Common Stock on behalf of the participants during the applicable Investment Period in the manner described under Question 15. The amount of any required United States
income tax withholding and any administrative fees will be deducted from the amount of dividends on Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock to determine the amount of dividends to reinvest. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Optional cash investments by a participant cannot be less than $25 per investment nor more than a total of $300,000 per calendar year (including for purposes of
this limitation the initial investment made by a nonholder upon enrollment in the Plan). In the case of nonholders, the initial cash investment with the Nonholder Enrollment Form must be at least
$250. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Optional
cash investments may be made by sending an optional cash investment coupon along with either a check or money order in U.S. Dollars </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>payable to

HI&nbsp;96820-1920. </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>The Plan may reject checks payable to a party other than HEI/DRIP, even if endorsed for payment to the Plan. Optional cash investments must not be
included in remittances for payment of utility service billings.</B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
a participant wishes to make one cash investment of the same amount each month, the participant may use the Plan's automatic cash investment option. This allows a participant to make
one cash investment of the same amount each month by automatic deduction of that amount from the participant's designated bank account. Employees and directors of the Company and certain of its
subsidiaries may also make cash investments through payroll deductions or by other means, subject to approval by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company or the Administrator. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
forms to accompany optional cash investments, and to authorize such automatic deduction of optional cash investments, may be obtained from the Administrator at the address noted
under Question 4. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Optional
cash investments will be transferred, by the end of the next business day following the day of receipt of the optional cash investment, to a segregated escrow account at a bank
designated by the Company ("Escrow Agent"), to be held for the benefit of the participants pending investment in shares of Common Stock. Any interest or other earnings on such funds prior to their
investment is the property of the Company. The current Escrow Agent is Central Pacific Bank. Should it become necessary or desirable to replace Central Pacific Bank as Escrow Agent, the Company may
appoint a successor Escrow Agent. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Administrator must receive requests for refunds of optional cash investments in writing by the Cash Deadline Date (see Question 19)&nbsp;before the applicable Investment Date.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes. A holder of record of Common Stock who submits a Shareholder Authorization Form or Transaction Request and Authorization Form may elect to transfer such

as applicable, also holds for safekeeping the shares purchased through the Plan unless the shares are withdrawn by or distributed to the participant upon termination. (See Question 22.) These
safekeeping arrangements protect against loss, theft and destruction of stock certificates. Shares of Preferred Stock may not be transferred to the Administrator or Trustee for safekeeping. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A participant may terminate participation in the Plan as to all (but not less than all) Common Stock and Preferred Stock by signing and submitting a written
notification to the Administrator. Any notice of termination received on or after an ex-dividend record date may not be processed until after the dividends payable on the record date have been paid
and reinvested in accordance with the Plan. The "ex-dividend record date" for purposes of the Plan is three (3)&nbsp;business days before the dividend record date. A participant must wait at least
two (2)&nbsp;weeks after the purchase of shares before terminating participation in the Plan. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
participant must also maintain at least one whole share of Common Stock in the Plan (increased to five whole shares from and after January&nbsp;1, 2015) to keep an active account. If
a participant does not do so, the participant's participation in the Plan may be terminated, in which case the participant will receive a cash payment in the amount of the net proceeds of the sale of
all shares (and fraction of a share) in the Plan based on the selling price of the shares less any withholding required under applicable tax laws less a fee (unless the fee is waived by the Company in
its sole and absolute discretion) The fee is currently equal to brokerage commissions incurred in connection with the sale and a $15 service fee, but from and after January&nbsp;1, 2015, the fee
will be 10 cents per share. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>25.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What occurs following receipt by the Administrator of a participant's signed written notice of termination of participation in the

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Within
ten (10)&nbsp;business days after receipt of the notice of termination (or after the reinvestment of dividends if the notice is received between the ex-dividend record and

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Termination of participation in the Plan will not necessarily preclude re-enrollment, but the Company reserves the right to reject re-enrollment where in its sole
discretion it deems there have been excessive

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject
to the limitations described in the answer to Question 28, shares will be issued within ten&nbsp;(10)&nbsp;business days after receipt of the notice of withdrawal (or after
the reinvestment of dividends if the notice is received between the ex-dividend record and payment dates). A cash payment will be made for any fractional share. </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>In no case will
fractional shares be issued.</B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>30.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;May shares a participant withdraws from the Plan continue to participate in the Plan?  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes. Shares of Common Stock withdrawn from the Plan and registered in the participant's name will continue to participate in the Plan if the participant has so
instructed the Administrator pursuant to a Shareholder Authorization Form and has not terminated participation in the manner described under Question 24. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>31.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;May a participant who requests the withdrawal of shares under the Plan have the withdrawn shares issued in the name of another
person?</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes.
A participant may do so by submitting a properly completed and executed stock power, with a Medallion Signature Guarantee, and by complying with such other procedures as the Company
or Administrator shall establish. The forms necessary to effect any such transfer may be obtained from the Administrator at the address noted under Question 4 or from the Company's website. However,
any notice of name change received by the Administrator between the record and payment dates will not be effective until after the dividends have been paid and reinvested in accordance with the Plan. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>33.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;May a participant receive cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock upon termination of participation in the Plan or withdrawal of shares
from the Plan?</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes.
The participant must submit a signed written request to the Administrator to sell such shares of Common Stock and to distribute to the participant the net cash proceeds from such
sale in lieu of shares. The Company may retain a broker-dealer not affiliated with the Company to effect such sales. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>34.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If a participant requests a distribution of cash in lieu of certificates for shares, when will the Common Stock be
sold?</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
the shares will be sold on the open market, the sale will occur generally within the same period of time that would be required if shares rather than cash were to be distributed. (See
Question 25.) Delays in selling shares are possible, however. Interest will not be paid to a participant for any such delays and the participant assumes the risk of any price fluctuations. A
participant must wait at least two (2)&nbsp;weeks after the purchase of shares under the Plan before selling the recently purchased shares from the Plan. A participant must also wait at least two
(2)&nbsp;weeks before selling shares in the Plan after updating the participant's address of record unless the request is submitted with a valid Medallion Signature Guarantee or by complying with
other requirements that the Company or Administrator shall establish. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>35.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What amount will be distributed to a participant who requests a distribution of cash in lieu of shares?</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
check representing the selling price of the shares less any withholding required under applicable tax laws and less a fee (unless such fee is waived by the Company in its sole and
absolute discretion), will be sent to the participant at the end of the settlement period. The fee is currently and amount equal to brokerage commissions and a $15 service fee, but, from and after
January&nbsp;1, 2015, the fee will be ten cents per share to cover brokerage commissions and service fees. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>36.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What happens if a participant sells or transfers all of the shares registered in the participant's name but does not sell shares held

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shares
remaining in the Plan will continue to participate in the Plan if the participant has so instructed the Administrator pursuant to a Shareholder Authorization Form and dividends
thereon will continue to be reinvested in accordance with the participant's instructions until the shares are withdrawn from the Plan or the participant terminates participation in the Plan. </FONT></P>

the shares credited to such participant's account will not be tendered. A participant may, at any time prior to a tender offer withdrawal date, direct the Trustee to withdraw shares of the Company's

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>42.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What limitations of liability exist under the Plan?</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Neither
the Company, nor the Administrator, nor the Trustee, nor the Escrow Agent, nor the Broker, nor any of their respective officers, directors, representatives, employees or agents

arising out of failure to terminate a participant's account upon the participant's death, the price or timing at which shares are purchased for participants' accounts or fluctuations in the market
value of shares. However, the foregoing in no way affects a participant's right to bring a cause of action based on alleged violations of federal securities laws. </FONT></P>

<BR></FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>  FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS    <BR>    </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following is a brief summary, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), of certain applicable federal
income tax aspects of participating in the Plan. This summary is based on current law and may be affected by future legislation, Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings and other administrative
pronouncements, income tax regulations and court decisions. This discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of taxation that may be relevant to a particular participant in light of the
participant's circumstances, or if the participant is a type of investor subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (including, without limitation, insurance companies,
partnerships, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, broker dealers, foreign corporations and persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States). In addition, there may be
foreign, state and local tax laws applicable to participation in the Plan. </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>Since individual tax situations may vary, and since provisions of the Code and other tax laws may be
modified by subsequent amendments or their application may be affected by changes in interpretation, participants should consult with their own tax advisors for advice on applicable federal, foreign,
state and local tax consequences of their participation in the Plan.</B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
general, a participant will be required to include dividends on Common Stock and Preferred Stock in income for federal income tax purposes whether cash is received or such dividends
are applied to the purchase of shares or to payment of administrative costs of the Plan. When dividends are reinvested to acquire shares directly from the Company, a participant is treated as having
received on the dividend payment date a taxable dividend in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock purchased for the participant's account under the Plan plus the amount of any
fees incurred. When dividends are reinvested to acquire shares purchased in open market transactions, a participant is treated as having received a taxable dividend equal to the amount of cash
dividends used to make those purchases and to pay any related fees. These dividends will be reported after the end of each calendar year to participants and to the IRS on IRS Form&nbsp;1099-DIV. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dividends
are generally taxed as ordinary income. However, "qualified" dividend income received by an individual, estate or trust, meeting the holding period requirements explained
below, is taxed at capital gains rates. "Qualified" dividend income includes dividends received during the tax year from a </FONT></P>

corporation like HEI. For years beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2012, the capital gains rates for noncorporate taxpayers are currently 0%, 15% or 20%, depending on the taxpayers' income
tax bracket for the year in which the dividends are received and taxable. In order to qualify for these capital gains rates, the dividend must be paid with respect to shares held for more than
60&nbsp;days during the 121-day period beginning 60&nbsp;days before the ex-dividend date and certain other conditions must be met. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Where
stock certificates or book entry shares are issued by the Plan to a participant, or where a participant deposits certificates or book entry shares into the Plan, the participant
does not realize taxable income from this mere change in evidence of ownership. A participant does recognize taxable gain or loss when the shares in participant's account are sold pursuant to the
terms of the Plan (or are withdrawn from the Plan and then sold by the participant). The amount of gain or loss will be the difference between the amount that the participant receives for the shares
or fraction of a share sold and the participant's tax basis for such share or fraction of a share. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
participant's tax basis for shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Plan will be equal to the amount of reinvested dividends a participant is treated as receiving, as
described above, or optional cash investments used to purchase such shares. The tax basis of shares purchased in the open market to satisfy Plan requirements will be increased by the amount of any
brokerage fees incurred by the Plan on the participant's behalf. A participant's holding period for shares purchased with optional cash investments or Preferred Stock dividends will begin on the day
after the shares are purchased. A participant's holding period for shares purchased with Common Stock dividends will begin on the day following the date of distribution of the dividends. In the event
shares are purchased on the open market, the holding period for the shares will begin no later than the day after the date such shares are credited to the participant's account. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company is required to report certain tax information related to participant sales of Plan shares. This information is reported on IRS Form&nbsp;1099-B and is transmitted to the
participant and the IRS. In all cases, the Company must report the date of sale and the gross proceeds resulting from these sales of Plan shares. Beginning with post-2010 sales, additional information
(participant's cost or other basis in the shares and whether the gain or loss with respect to such sale is long-term or short-term) will be required for the sale of certain Plan shares. In general,
only Plan shares acquired after 2010 will be subject to the additional reporting requirements. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With
respect to this additional reporting requirement, the Company has adopted the "first in, first out" method ("FIFO") as its default method for determining which Plan shares have been
transferred, withdrawn or sold and whether the additional reporting requirements apply. Under the FIFO method, any reduction of Plan shares will be deemed to first come from a participant's
earliest-acquired Plan shares. Note that there are certain instances where it is impractical for the Company to determine the additional reporting information, and in these cases the tax law provides
an exception to the reporting requirements for shares acquired after 2010. A participant must notify the Plan Administrator (currently the Shareholder Services division of the Company) prior to the
transaction date for a transfer, withdrawal or sale of Plan shares if the participant wishes to use an IRS-approved method other than the FIFO method to determine which Plan shares are being sold. In
all cases, participants should retain the transaction statements necessary to determine the tax basis of their Plan (and other) shares. </FONT></P>

in 2013, investment earnings, such as dividends and capital gains on sale of stock, are subject to a 3.8% Medicare tax in the hands of individuals having adjusted gross income
in excess of $200,000 ($250,000 in the case of joint returns). This same tax applies in the case of certain trusts and estates. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
a participant fails to furnish to the Company a properly completed IRS Form&nbsp;W-9 or its equivalent, then the "backup withholding" provisions of the Code will apply and require
to Company to withhold the required amount from any dividends or sales proceeds. Where applicable, the amount of backup withholding is twenty-eight percent (28%) or such other amount as determined by
treaty between the United States and the country in which the investor resides. Additionally, starting in 2013, dividends and sales proceeds payable to foreign shareholders became subject to special
reporting rules referred to as "FATCA." If there is a failure to comply with these rules, such dividends and sales proceeds will be subject to withholding tax at a rate of 30% even if an otherwise
applicable treaty provides for a lower rate. Where backup withholding applies to dividends, the amount of such tax withholding is deducted from the dividends and the balance is reinvested. Statements
of account for participants will indicate amounts withheld. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of HEI provide that HEI will indemnify any person against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding to which such
person is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of being or having been a director, officer, employee or agent of HEI, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner the
person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of HEI, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was
unlawful. With respect to an action brought by or in the right of HEI in which such person is adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of that person's duty to HEI,
indemnification may be made only to the extent deemed fair and reasonable in view of all of the circumstances of the case by the court in which the action was brought or any other court having
jurisdiction. The indemnification provisions in the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation were authorized at the time of their adoption by the applicable provisions of the Hawaii Revised
Statutes, and substantially similar authorizing provisions are currently set forth in Section&nbsp;414-242 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
HEI's annual meeting of stockholders held on April&nbsp;18, 1989, the stockholders adopted a proposal authorizing HEI to enter into written indemnity agreements with its officers
and directors. Pursuant to such authority, HEI has entered into agreements of indemnity with certain of its officers and directors. The agreements provide for mandatory indemnification of officers and
directors to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by law, which could, among another things, protect officers and directors from certain liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.
Indemnification under the agreements may be provided without a prior determination that an officer or director acted in good faith or in the best interests of HEI, and without prior court approval of
indemnification of an officer or director adjudicated liable in a shareholder's derivative action. The agreements provide for indemnification against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines and settlement amounts in connection with any action by or in the right of HEI. </FONT></P>

is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section&nbsp;13 or Section&nbsp;15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and incorporated herein
by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule&nbsp;424(b) that is part of the registration statement; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation

for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of securities, in a
primary offering of the securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
provisions described under Item&nbsp;15 above, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>
