[FORM OF REVERSE OF SERIES M JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE

DUE DECEMBER 1, 2077]

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 September 1, 2006 (herein, together with any amendments thereto, called the “ Indenture ”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), among the Company, NextEra Energy, Inc. 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 November 2, 2017, 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 Guarantor, 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.

During the Floating Rate Period the Securities of this series shall bear interest at a variable rate per annum (the “ Floating Interest Rate ”) equal to the Three ‑ Month LIBOR Rate (as defined below), plus 240.9 basis points (2.409%). The Floating Interest Rate on the Securities of this series for each Interest Period will be reset quarterly on the related LIBOR Rate Reset Date (as defined below).

During the Floating Rate Period, if an Interest Payment Date, other than a Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity Date of the Securities of this series, falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next day that 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, except that if such next Business Day occurs in the next succeeding calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. During the Floating Rate Period, if a Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity Date of the Securities of this series falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest or principal payable on such Redemption Date or Stated Maturity Date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and no interest will be paid or other payment made in respect of such delay), and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after such Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity Date, as applicable. If any LIBOR Rate Reset Date falls on a day that is not a LIBOR Business Day (as defined below), the LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be postponed to the next day that is a LIBOR Business Day, except that if such next LIBOR Business Day occurs in the next succeeding calendar month, the LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the immediately preceding LIBOR Business Day. The Floating Interest Rate in effect on any LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such LIBOR Rate Reset Date and the Floating Interest Rate applicable to any other day will be the Floating Interest Rate as reset on the immediately preceding LIBOR Rate Reset Date. The provisions of this paragraph shall supersede the provisions of Section 113 of the Indenture to the extent the provisions are inconsistent.

“ Calculation Agent ” means a banking institution or trust company to be appointed by the Company to act as calculation agent.

“ LIBOR Business Day ” means any day on which dealings in deposits in United States Dollars are transacted in the London Inter‑Bank Market.

“ LIBOR Interest Determination Date ” means the second LIBOR Business Day preceding each LIBOR Rate Reset Date.

“ LIBOR Rate Reset Date ” means, subject to the paragraph immediately preceding the definition of “Calculation Agent” set forth above, the 1st day of March, June, September and December of each year continuing until Maturity, commencing on December 1, 2027.

“ Three‑Month LIBOR Rate ” means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions:

(1)    On the related LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate, which will be the rate for deposits in United States Dollars having an index maturity of three months which appears on the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” or on such other page as may replace the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” on that service, or, if on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Three‑Month LIBOR does not appear or is not available on the designated Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM,” Reuters Page LIBOR01 (or such other page as may replace the Reuters Page LIBOR01 on that service) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date.

(2)    If no rate appears on either the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM or the Reuters Page LIBOR01 on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of four major reference banks in the London Inter‑Bank Market (“ Reference Banks ”) selected by the Company to provide it with their offered quotations for deposits in United States Dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the applicable LIBOR Rate Reset Date, to prime banks in the London Inter‑Bank Market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000. If at least two quotations are provided, then the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate will be the average (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate will be the average (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date by three major banks in New York City selected by the Company (“ Major Banks ”) for loans in United States Dollars to leading European banks, having a three‑month maturity and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000. If the banks selected by the Company are not providing quotations in the manner described by this paragraph, the rate for the quarterly interest period following the LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the rate already in effect on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing items (1) and (2) above:

•    If the Calculation Agent determines on the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date that the LIBOR base rate has been discontinued, then the Calculation Agent will use a substitute or successor base rate that it has determined in its sole discretion is most comparable to the LIBOR base rate, provided that if the Calculation Agent determines there is an industry-accepted successor base rate, then the Calculation Agent shall use such successor base rate; and

•    If the Calculation Agent has determined a substitute or successor base rate in accordance with the foregoing, the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion may determine what business day convention to use, the definition of business day, the LIBOR Interest Determination Date and any other relevant methodology for calculating such substitute or successor base rate, including any adjustment factor needed to make such substitute or successor base rate comparable to the LIBOR base rate, in a manner that is consistent with industry-accepted practices for such substitute or successor base rate.

The Floating Interest Rate for any Interest Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by applicable law.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of the Floating Interest Rate will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one‑millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.876545% (or .03876545) being rounded to 3.87655% (or .0387655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).

Absent willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error, the Calculation Agent’s determination of the Three-Month LIBOR Rate (including if the LIBOR base rate has been discontinued, a substitute or successor base rate and any changes in the methodology for calculating such substitute or successor base rate) and its calculation of the applicable Floating Interest Rate for each Interest Period will be final and binding on the Company, the Trustee, the Calculation Agent and Holders of the Securities of this series. The Holders of the Securities of this series may obtain the Floating Interest Rate for the current and preceding Interest Periods by writing the Calculation Agent.

The Calculation Agent shall, as soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m., London time, on each LIBOR Interest Determination Date, determine the Floating Interest Rate and the Company will calculate the amount of interest payable on the Securities of this series in respect of the applicable Interest Period (the “ Interest Amount ”). The Interest Amount shall be calculated by multiplying the Floating Interest Rate for that Interest Period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during such Interest Period (determined by including the first day of the Interest Period and excluding the last day), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series. The determination of the Interest Amount by the Company will (in the absence of willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding on all concerned. None of the Trustee, the Calculation Agent or the Company (or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, beneficiaries, employees or affiliates) shall have any liability to any Person for (i) the selection of the Reference Banks or the Major Banks or (ii) failure of the Reference Banks or the Major Banks to provide quotations to the Calculation Agent. Promptly upon the determination of the Floating Interest Rate and the calculation of the Interest Amount, the Calculation Agent and the Company, respectively, will notify the Trustee of such Floating Interest Rate and Interest Amount.

In addition to the option of the Company to redeem the Securities of this series in connection with a Tax Event or a Rating Agency Event described below, this Security shall also be redeemable at the option of the Company in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, on or after December 1, 2027, upon notice (the “ Redemption Notice ”) mailed at least thirty (30) days but not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the “ Redemption Date ”) at the price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the principal amount thereof plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, including Additional Interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date (the “ Redemption Price ”).

If at the time the Redemption Notice is given, the redemption moneys are not on deposit with the Trustee, then, if such notice so provides, the redemption shall be subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys on or before the Redemption Date and such Redemption Notice shall be of no force or effect unless such moneys are received.

Upon payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Securities of this series or portions thereof called for redemption.

If before December 1, 2027 a Tax Event (as defined below) shall occur and be continuing, the Company shall have the right to redeem this Security, in whole but not in part, at any time within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of the Tax Event, upon a Redemption Notice, at the price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the principal amount thereof plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, including Additional Interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (the “ Tax Event Redemption Date ”).

“ Tax Event ” means the receipt by the Guarantor or the Company of an Opinion of Counsel experienced in such tax matters to the effect that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, clarification of, or change (including any announced prospective change) in the laws or treaties of the United States or any political subdivisions or taxing authorities, or any regulations under such laws or treaties, (b) any judicial decision or any official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, notice or announcement (including any notice or announcement of intent to issue or adopt any such administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation) (each, an “ Administrative Action ”), (c) any amendment to, clarification of, or change in the official position or the interpretation of any such Administrative Action or judicial decision or any interpretation or pronouncement that provides for a position with respect to such Administrative Action or judicial decision that differs from the theretofore generally accepted position, in each case by any legislative body, court, governmental authority or regulatory body, irrespective of the time or manner in which such amendment, clarification or change is introduced or made known, or (d) threatened challenge asserted in writing in connection with an audit of the Guarantor or the Company or any of their subsidiaries, or a publicly‑known threatened challenge asserted in writing against any other taxpayer that has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the Securities of this series, which amendment, clarification, or change is effective, or which Administrative Action is taken or which judicial decision, interpretation or pronouncement is issued or threatened challenge is asserted or becomes publicly‑known, in each case after October 30, 2017, there is more than an insubstantial risk that interest payable by the Company on this Security is not deductible, or within 90 days would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by the Company for United States Federal income tax purposes.

Before December 1, 2027, the Company shall have the right to redeem this Security in whole but not in part, upon a Redemption Notice given at any time within ninety (90) days after the conclusion of any review or appeal process instituted by the Company or the Guarantor following the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event (as defined below), at the price equal to the sum of (i) 102% of the principal amount thereof plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, including Additional Interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (“ Rating Agency Event Redemption Date ”).

“ Rating Agency Event ” means a change to the methodology or criteria that were employed by an applicable rating agency (as defined below) for purposes of assigning equity credit to securities such as the Securities of this series on the date of initial issuance of the Securities of this series (the “ current methodology ”), which reduces the amount of equity credit assigned to the Securities of this

series by the applicable rating agency as compared with the amount of equity credit that such rating agency had assigned to the Securities of this series as of the date of initial issuance thereof.

The term “ rating agency ” means any nationally recognized statistical rating organization (within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and sometimes referred to in this Security as a “rating agency”), and the term “ applicable rating agency ” means any rating agency that (i)(a) published a rating for the Company or the Guarantor with respect to the initial issuance of the Securities of this series and (b) publishes a rating for the Company or the Guarantor at such time as a Rating Agency Event occurs, or (ii) any successor to a rating agency described in the preceding clause (i).

If at the time a Redemption Notice is given, the redemption moneys are not on deposit with the Trustee, then, if such notice so provides, the redemption shall be subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys on or before the Tax Event Redemption Date or Rating Agency Event Redemption Date, as the case may be, and such Redemption Notice shall be of no force or effect unless such moneys are received.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

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 shall not 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 applicable to the Securities of this series, and any notice of declaration of acceleration based on such Event of Default shall be null and void with respect to the Securities of this series. The Securities of this series will not be considered Outstanding for the purpose of determining whether the required vote described in Section 802 of the Indenture has been obtained for the declaration of acceleration by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default specified in Section 801(c) of the Indenture applicable to the Securities of this series.

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.

Pursuant to Section 312 of the Indenture, so long as no Event of Default under the Indenture has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any series, the Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities of this series, to defer the payment of interest for a period not exceeding ten (10) consecutive years (each period, commencing on the date that the first such payment would otherwise be made, an “ Optional Deferral Period ”); provided that no Optional Deferral Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity Date or end on a day other than an Interest Payment Date. During the Optional Deferral Period, interest (calculated for each Interest Period in the manner provided for on the face hereof, as if the interest payment had not been so deferred) will be compounded (x) semi-annually at the rate of 4.800% per annum during the Fixed Rate Period and (y) quarterly at the then prevailing rate during the Floating Rate Period. Any deferred interest on the Securities of this series during an Optional Deferral Period will accrue additional interest compounded semi-annually during the Fixed Rate Period and quarterly during the Floating Rate Period, on any interest payment that is not made on the applicable Interest Payment Date, which shall accrue at the then prevailing rate per annum borne by the Securities of this series, to the extent permitted by applicable law (“ Additional Interest ”). At the end of the Optional Deferral Period, which shall be an Interest Payment Date, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid hereon, including

Additional Interest accrued on the deferred interest, to the Person in whose name the Securities of this series are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for the Interest Payment Date on which such Optional Deferral Period ended; provided that any such accrued and unpaid interest payable on the Stated Maturity Date or any Redemption Date will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. During any such Optional Deferral Period, neither the Guarantor nor the Company will, and each will cause their majority‑owned subsidiaries not to, (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on the Guarantor’s or the Company’s capital stock, (ii) redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to any of the Guarantor’s or the Company’s capital stock, (iii) pay any principal, interest or premium on, or repay, repurchase or redeem any of the Guarantor’s or the Company’s debt securities that are equal or junior in right of payment to the Securities of this series or the Guarantee (as the case may be), or (iv) make any payments with respect to any Guarantor or Company guarantee of debt securities if such guarantee is equal or junior in right of payment to the Securities of this series or the Guarantee (as the case may be).

Subject to the reservation of right to amend clause (f) below, as described in paragraph 16 of the Officer’s Certificate, the foregoing provisions shall not prevent or restrict the Guarantor or the Company from making:

(a)      purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of its capital stock in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or agents or a stock purchase or dividend reinvestment plan, or the satisfaction of its obligations pursuant to any contract or security outstanding on the date that the payment of interest is deferred requiring it to purchase, redeem or acquire its capital stock;

(b)      any payment, repayment, redemption, purchase, acquisition or declaration of dividend described in clauses (i) and (ii) above as a result of a reclassification of its capital stock, or the exchange or conversion of all or a portion of one class or series of its capital stock for another class or series of its capital stock;

(c)      the purchase of fractional interests in shares of its capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of its capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, or in connection with the settlement of stock purchase contracts;

(e)      redemptions, exchanges or repurchases of, or with respect to, any rights outstanding under a shareholder rights plan or the declaration or payment thereunder of a dividend or distribution of or with respect to rights in the future;

(f)      payments under any preferred trust securities guarantee or guarantee of subordinated debentures executed and delivered by the Guarantor concurrently with the issuance by a trust of any preferred trust securities, so long as the amount of payments made on any preferred trust securities or subordinated debentures (as the case may be) is paid on all preferred trust securities or subordinated debentures (as the case may be) then

outstanding on a pro rata basis in proportion to the full distributions to which each series of preferred trust securities or subordinated debentures (as the case may be) is then entitled;

(g)      payments under any guarantee of junior subordinated debentures, which guarantee is executed and delivered by the Guarantor (including a Guarantee under the Indenture), so long as the amount of payments made on any junior subordinated debentures is paid on all junior subordinated debentures then outstanding on a pro rata basis in proportion to the full payment to which each series of junior subordinated debentures is then entitled;

(h)      dividends or distributions by the Company on its capital stock to the extent owned by the Guarantor; or

(i)      redemptions, purchases, acquisitions or liquidation payments by the Company with respect to its capital stock to the extent owned by the Guarantor.

Prior to the termination of any such Optional Deferral Period, the Company may further defer the payment of interest, provided that such Optional Deferral Period together with all such previous and further deferrals of interest payments shall not exceed ten (10) consecutive years at any one time or extend beyond the Stated Maturity Date of the Securities of this series. Upon the termination of any such Optional Deferral Period and the payment of all amounts then due, including interest on deferred interest payments, the Company may elect to begin a new Optional Deferral Period, subject to the above requirements. No interest shall be due and payable during an Optional Deferral Period, except at the end thereof. The Company will give the Trustee notice of its election of an Optional Deferral Period at least ten (10) days and not more than sixty (60) days before the applicable Interest Payment Date. The Trustee will promptly forward notice of such election to each Holder of record of the Securities of this series.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations 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.

The 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.

Each of the Company and the Guarantor has agreed, and by acceptance of this Security, the Holder will be deemed to have agreed, to treat this Security as indebtedness for United States federal, state and local tax purposes.
