Explanation of Responses:
1. Phantom shares credited to a Supplemental Matching Contribution Account for the reporting person pursuant to the FPL Group, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. Phantom shares represent the number of phantom shares of FPL Group, Inc. common stock credited to the reporting person if the phantom shares had been invested in FPL Group's company stock fund in its Thrift Plan during fiscal year 2003 based on share prices ranging from $54.20 to $67.83. Amount shown constitutes the difference between the balance at 12/31/03 and the balance at 12/31/02. Includes cash dividends that would be payable on the phantom shares if the reporting person was the record holder of the number of shares of FPL Group, Inc. common stock equal to the phantom shares. Shares of phantom stock are payable in cash following the reporting person's termination of employment with FPL Group, Inc. This filing is not an admission that the phantom shares are derivative securities.
