(d)For all purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall have the meaning assigned to it under the Plan as in effect on the date of this Agreement.
(e)For all purposes of this Agreement, the term “Involuntary Discharge without Cause” shall mean a termination of employment by the Company that is not for “Cause” described in section 7(b) of the Retention Agreement as in effect on the date of this Agreement or the result of the Grantee’s death or Disability.

4.Form of Payment of Award.  (a) Subject to section 4(b) and section 5 hereof, the Award shall be payable in shares of Stock. Upon delivery of shares of Stock to the Grantee, the Company shall have the right to withhold from any such distribution, in order to meet the Company’s obligations for the payment of withholding taxes, shares of Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory withholding for taxes (including federal and state income taxes and payroll taxes applicable to the supplemental taxable income relating to such distribution) and any other tax liabilities for which the Company has an obligation relating to such distribution. For the purpose of this Agreement, the date of determination of Fair Market Value shall be the date as of which the Grantee’s rights to a payment under the Award are determined by the Committee in accordance with section 2 hereof, or the date of a qualifying termination of Service or conversion of status with respect to a payment pursuant to section 3 hereof.
(b)    If, as a result of a Change in Control, shares of Stock are exchanged for or converted into a different form of equity security and/or the right to receive other property (including cash),

payment in respect of the Restricted Stock Units shall, to the maximum extent practicable, be made in the same form.

5.Adjustments; Cash Dividends. If the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares or kind of capital stock or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, combination of stock, exchange of stock, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in shares of Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, then the number of Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder and the number of shares of Stock deliverable pursuant hereto shall be adjusted proportionately. In the event a dividend on shares of Stock is payable in cash, an amount of cash equal to the value of such dividend with respect to a number of shares of Stock underlying then outstanding and unpaid Restricted Stock Units shall, as of the ex dividend date for such dividend occurring after the date of grant and during a Retention Period, become part of the Award for all purposes of this Agreement. Unless the Committee directs otherwise, such amount of cash shall be deemed to be applied to the purchase of additional Restricted Stock Units on the dividend payment date at a price equal to the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares on the dividend payment date. Such additional Restricted Stock Units will vest and be paid (subject to applicable tax withholding) or be forfeited with the original Restricted Stock Units to which they relate.
6.No Rights of Stock Ownership. This grant of Restricted Stock Units does not entitle the Grantee to any interest in or to any dividend, voting or other rights normally attributable to Stock ownership.
7.Nonassignability. The Grantee’s rights and interest in the Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
8.Effect Upon Employment. This Agreement is not to be construed as giving any right to the Grantee for employment by the Company or a Subsidiary or other Affiliate.

9.Protective Covenants. In consideration of the Award granted under this Agreement, the Grantee covenants and agrees as follows (the “Protective Covenants”):
(a)During the Grantee’s Service with the Company, and for a two-year period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company, the Grantee agrees not to (i) compete or attempt to compete for, or act as a broker or otherwise participate in, any projects in which the Company has at any time done any work or undertaken any development efforts, or (ii) directly or indirectly solicit any of the Company’s customers, vendors, contractors, agents, or any other parties with which the Company has an existing or prospective business relationship, for the benefit of the Grantee or for the benefit of any third party, nor shall the Grantee accept consideration or negotiate or enter into agreements with such parties for the benefit of the Grantee or any third party.
(b)During the Grantee’s Service with the Company and for a two-year period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company, the Grantee shall not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of the Grantee or for any other business, person or entity, entice, induce or 

4

solicit or attempt to entice, induce or solicit any employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates to leave the Company’s employ (or the employ of any such Subsidiary or other Affiliate) or to hire or to cause any employee of the Company to become employed for any reason whatsoever.
(c)The Grantee shall not, at any time or in any way, disparage the Company or its current or former officers, directors, and employees, orally or in writing, or make any statements that may be derogatory or detrimental to the Company’s good name or business reputation.
(d)The Grantee acknowledges that the Company would not have an adequate remedy at law for monetary damages if the Grantee breaches these Protective Covenants. Therefore, in addition to all remedies to which the Company may be entitled for a breach or threatened breach of these Protective Covenants, including but not limited to monetary damages, the Company will be entitled to specific enforcement of these Protective Covenants and to injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for a breach or threatened breach. In addition, upon any breach of these Protective Covenants or any separate confidentiality agreement or confidentiality provision between the Company and the Grantee, all of the Grantee’s rights to receive shares of Stock not theretofore delivered under this Agreement shall be forfeited.
(e)For purposes of this section 9, the term “Company” shall include all Subsidiaries and other Affiliates of the Company (such Subsidiaries and other Affiliates being hereinafter referred to as the “NextEra Entities”). The Company and the Grantee agree that each of the NextEra Entities is an intended third-party beneficiary of this section 9, and further agree that each of the NextEra Entities is entitled to enforce the provisions of this section 9 in accordance with its terms.
(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the terms of these Protective Covenants shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in effect.
10.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Company and the Grantee and their respective heirs, successors and assigns.
11.Incorporation of Plan’s Terms; Other Governing Provisions. This Agreement is made under and subject to the provisions of the Plan, and all the provisions of the Plan are also provisions of this Agreement, provided, however, (a) if there is a difference or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the mandatory provisions of the Plan, such mandatory provisions of the Plan shall govern, and (b) if there is a difference or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the non-mandatory provisions of the Plan, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.  The Company and Committee retain all authority and powers granted by the Plan and not expressly limited by this Agreement. The Grantee acknowledges that he or she may not and shall not rely on any statement of account or other communication or document issued in connection with the Plan other than the Plan, this Agreement, and any document signed by an authorized representative of the Company that is designated as an amendment of the Plan or this Agreement.
12.Interpretation. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret and construe all provisions of this Agreement, and any such interpretation or construction, and any other determination contemplated to be made under the Plan or this Agreement, by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive, absent manifest error.
