EXPLANATORY NOTE
On March 14, 2000, MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company, an Iowa corporation
("MidAmerican"), consummated a going-private transaction (the "Merger") in which
a newly formed entity merged with and into MidAmerican. As a result of the
Merger, the common stock, no par value, of MidAmerican ceased to trade on The
New York Stock Exchange and became eligible for delisting from The New York
Stock Exchange and termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) and
Rule 12h-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly on
March 14, 2000, MidAmerican filed a Certification and Notice of Termination of
Registration on Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration
Statement on Form S-3 (Registration File No. 333-62697) is to terminate the
effectiveness of such Registration Statement and to deregister all of the
securities originally registered thereby which remain outstanding as of such
termination.
