<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Florida Statutes Section&nbsp;607.0851 generally permits NextEra Energy to indemnify its directors and officers who are subject to any proceeding because the
individual is or was a director or officer of NextEra Energy if such persons acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of NextEra Energy. If the proceeding is a criminal one, such
person must also have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In addition, NextEra Energy may indemnify its directors and officers who are subject to derivative actions against expenses and amounts paid in settlement
which do not exceed, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal
thereof, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of NextEra Energy. Florida Statutes Section&nbsp;607.0852 provides that to the extent that a director or
officer is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which the individual was a party because he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation, such person will be indemnified against expenses
incurred in connection therewith. Florida Statutes Sections 607.0858 and 607.0859 also permit NextEra Energy to further indemnify such persons by other means unless a judgment or other final adjudication establishes that such person&#146;s actions
or omissions were material to the cause of action so adjudicated and constitute (1)&nbsp;willful or intentional misconduct or a conscious disregard for the best interests of NextEra Energy in a proceeding by or in the right of NextEra Energy to
procure a judgment in its favor or in a proceeding by or in the right of a shareholder, (2)&nbsp;a transaction from which he or she derived an improper personal benefit, (3)&nbsp;a crime (unless such person had reasonable cause to believe his or her
conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe it unlawful), or (4)&nbsp;in the case of a director, an action in violation of Florida Statutes Section&nbsp;607.0834 (relating to unlawful distributions to shareholders). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Furthermore, Florida Statutes Section&nbsp;607.0831 provides, in general, that no director shall be personally liable for monetary damages to a corporation or
any other person for any statement, vote, decision to take or not to take action, or any failure to take any action, as a director, unless (a)&nbsp;the director breached or failed to perform his or her duties as a director, and (b)&nbsp;the
director&#146;s breach of, or failure to perform, those duties constitutes any of the following: (i)&nbsp;a violation of criminal law, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to
believe his or her conduct was unlawful, (ii)&nbsp;a circumstance under which the transaction at issue is one from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, either directly or indirectly, (iii)&nbsp;a circumstance under which the
liability provisions of Florida Statutes Section&nbsp;607.0834 are applicable, (iv)&nbsp;in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor or by or in the right of a shareholder, conscious disregard for the
best interest of the corporation, or willful or intentional misconduct, or (v)&nbsp;in a proceeding by or in the right of someone other than the corporation or a shareholder, recklessness or an act or omission which was committed in bad faith or
with malicious purpose or in a manner exhibiting wanton and willful disregard of human rights, safety, or property. The term &#147;recklessness,&#148; as used above, means the action, or omission to act, in conscious disregard of a risk
(a)&nbsp;known, or so obvious that it should have been known, to the director, and (b)&nbsp;known to the director, or so obvious that it should have been known, to be so great as to make it highly probable that harm would follow from such action or
omission. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">NextEra Energy&#146;s bylaws provide generally that NextEra Energy shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify all of its
directors and officers, directors, officers, or other employees serving as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan of NextEra Energy, as well as any employees or agents of NextEra Energy or other persons serving at the request of NextEra Energy in
any capacity with any entity or enterprise other than NextEra Energy to whom NextEra Energy has agreed to grant indemnification (each, an &#147;Indemnified Person&#148;) to the extent that any such person is made a party or threatened to be made a
party or called as a witness or is otherwise involved in any action, suit, or proceeding in connection with his status as an Indemnified Person. Such indemnification covers all expenses incurred by any Indemnified Person (including attorneys&#146;
fees) and all liabilities and losses (including judgments, fines and amounts to be paid in settlement) incurred thereby in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, NextEra Energy carries insurance permitted by the laws of Florida on behalf of directors or officers which may cover, among other things,

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:13%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. 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 from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#147;Calculation of Registration Fee&#148; table in the effective
registration statement; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:13%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in

and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(2) That, for the purpose of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide<I> </I>offering thereof. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of

that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant&#146;s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each
filing of an employee benefit plan&#146;s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(h) 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 foregoing provisions, 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. </P>
