Aug 29, 2013

JUNO BEACH, Fla. – NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE) today announced the settlement rate for the stock purchase contracts that are components of equity units that it issued in September 2010. Holders of the equity units will receive 0.7387 shares of NextEra Energy common stock for each stock purchase contract that they hold, with cash to be paid in lieu of any fractional shares. The settlement rate is based upon the average of the closing price per share of NextEra Energy common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on Aug. 28, 2013.

Consequently, on Sept. 3, 2013, each holder of the equity units on that date will, following payment of $50.00 for each unit which it holds, receive 0.7387 shares of NextEra Energy common stock for each such unit. The holders’ obligations to make such payments will be satisfied with proceeds generated by the successful remarketing on Aug. 9, 2013 of the NextEra Energy Capital Holdings, Inc. debentures that formerly constituted a component of the equity units, except for any holders that may have elected to make separate cash settlements of their stock purchase contracts.

Upon settlement of all outstanding stock purchase contracts, NextEra Energy will receive $402.434 million in exchange for approximately 5.95 million shares of common stock.

On Sept. 3, 2013, each equity unit holder of record on Aug. 30, 2013, will receive the final quarterly cash distribution of $0.875 payable per equity unit.
