JUNO BEACH, Fla., Feb. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- NextEra Energy Capital Holdings, Inc. today announced that it will conduct a remarketing of its Series K Debentures due March 1, 2025 (the "Debentures") (CUSIP No. 65339KBP4), which are currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $2.5 billion, on Feb. 22, 2023 (and, if necessary, on the following two business days). The Debentures were originally issued as part of NextEra Energy, Inc.'s Corporate Units (CUSIP No. 65339F770) on Feb. 21, 2020 (the "Corporate Units") in conjunction with a Purchase Contract Agreement, dated as of Feb. 1, 2020 (the "Purchase Contract Agreement").

If the remarketing is successful, the interest rate on the Debentures will be reset to a rate that will enable the Debentures to be remarketed at a price equal to or greater than the sum of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures being remarketed and the Remarketing Fee (as this term is defined in the Officer's Certificate, dated Feb. 21, 2020, creating the terms of the Debentures under the Indenture, dated as of June 1, 1999, as amended). The reset interest rate and the subsequent interest payment dates will be established on the date of the successful remarketing and become effective on March 1, 2023.

The proceeds from the remarketing of any Debentures that are not a component of the Corporate Units and whose holders elect to include some or all of those Debentures in the remarketing will be paid to such holders.
