————————————
(a)
Variable rate is based on an underlying index plus a margin.
(b)
Interest rate swap agreements have been entered into with respect to these issuances. See Note 2.
(c)
These tax exempt bonds permit individual bond holders to tender the bonds for purchase at any time prior to maturity. In the event the bonds are tendered for purchase, they would be remarketed by a designated remarketing agent in accordance with the related indenture. If the remarketing is unsuccessful, FPL would be required to purchase the bonds. As of September 30, 2015, all bonds tendered for purchase have been successfully remarketed. In the event the bonds are tendered by individual bond holders and not remarketed prior to maturity, FPL's bank revolving line of credit facilities are available to support the purchase of the bonds.
(d)
Approximately $54 million of the borrowings bear interest at a variable rate based on an underlying index plus a margin and the remaining amount of borrowings bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.38%.
