JUNIOR SUBORDINATED [DEBENTURES] DUE _____


 


NEXTERA
ENERGY, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Florida (herein referred to as the “Company”,
which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture (as defined below)), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
__________, or registered assigns, the principal sum of __________ Dollars on ____________ (the “Stated Maturity Date”).
The Company further promises (subject to deferral as set forth herein) to pay interest on the principal sum of this _____ Junior
Subordinated [Debenture] due __________ (this “Security”) to the registered Holder hereof at the rate of ____%
per annum, in like coin or currency, [quarterly][semi-annually] in arrears on __________[,__________, __________] and __________
of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”) until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for, such
interest payments to commence on __________. Each interest payment shall include interest accrued from the most-recently preceding
Interest Payment Date to which interest has either been paid or duly provided for (except that (i) the interest
payment which is due on __________ shall include interest that has accrued from __________, and (ii) if this Security is
authenticated during the period that (A) follows any particular Regular Record Date (as defined below) but (B) precedes the
next occurring Interest Payment Date, then the registered Holder hereof shall not be entitled to receive any interest payment
with respect to this Security on such next occurring Interest Payment Date). The Company also promises to pay Additional Interest
(as defined below) with respect to an Optional Deferral Period (as defined below) to the registered Holder of this Security, to
the extent payment of such Additional Interest is enforceable under applicable law, on any interest payment that is not made on
the applicable Interest Payment Date, as specified on the reverse of this Security. No interest will accrue on the Securities
of this series with respect to the day on which the Securities of this series mature. In the event that an Interest Payment Date
is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business
Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest
Payment Date. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on an Interest Payment Date will, as provided
in the Indenture referred to on the reverse of this Security (the “Indenture”), be payable to the Person in
whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the “Regular
Record Date” for such interest installment which shall be the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding
such Interest Payment Date so long as all of the Securities of this series are held by a securities depository in book-entry form;
provided that if any of the Securities of this series are not held by a securities depository in book-entry form,
the Regular Record Date will be the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day immediately preceding such Interest
Payment Date; and provided further that interest payable on the Stated Maturity Date or a Redemption Date will be
paid to the same Person to whom the associated principal is to be paid. Any such interest not punctually paid or duly provided
for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Person who is the Holder of this Security on such Regular Record Date and may be
paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business
on a Special Record Date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, notice of which shall be given
to Holders of Securities of this series not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at
any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities
of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.


 



    	 	A - 1	 



     

    

 


Payment
of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained
for that purpose in New York City, the State of New York in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time
of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, at the
option of the Company, interest on this Security may be paid by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as
such address shall appear on the Security Register or by a wire transfer to an account designated by the Person entitled thereto.
The amount of interest payable on this Security will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months
(and for any period shorter than a full [quarterly][semi-annual] period, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during
such period using 30-day calendar months).

[FORM
OF REVERSE OF JUNIOR SUBORDINATED [DEBENTURE] DUE __________]


 


This
Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued
and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture (For Unsecured Subordinated Debt Securities), dated as of __________
(herein, together with any amendments thereto, called the “Indenture,”, which term shall have the meaning assigned
to it in such instrument), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,”
which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture, including the Board
Resolutions and Officer’s Certificate filed with the Trustee on __________ creating the series designated on the face hereof
(herein called the “Officer’s Certificate”), for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of
rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of this series and of the
terms upon which the Securities of this series are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series
designated on the face hereof.


 


[Provisions
for redemption at the option of the Company, if any, will be inserted here.]


 


The
indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinated and subject in right of payment
to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions
of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by
such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
acknowledge or effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such
purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his acceptance hereof, hereby waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions
contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and
waives reliance by each such Holder upon said provisions.


 


The
Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security upon compliance with certain
conditions set forth in the Indenture, including the Officer’s Certificate described above.


 


If
an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and interest on
the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture; provided,
however, that the principal of and interest on the Securities of this series cannot be declared due and payable
by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default specified in Section 801(c) of the Indenture.


 


The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected by such amendment to the Indenture
at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities
at the time Outstanding of all series to be thus affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities
of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by Holders of the specified percentages in principal amount of the
Securities of this series shall be conclusive and binding upon all current and future Holders of this Security and of any Security
issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent
or waiver is made upon this Security.

As
provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute
any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder,
unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Securities of this series, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time
Outstanding in respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing shall have made written request to the
Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity,
and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all series
at the time Outstanding in respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing a direction inconsistent
with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice, request
and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement
of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.


 


No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of
the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the
times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

for deferral of the interest payments, if any, will be inserted here.]

therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series
and of like tenor and of authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.


 


No
service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered
as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee or
any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
