The Grantee shall not be entitled to delivery of unrestricted shares until vesting.

The Grantee may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of the Awarded Shares prior to vesting.

In addition to the provisions set forth in section 4 hereof, a breach by the Grantee of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall result in the immediate forfeiture of all then unvested Awarded Shares.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if all or a portion of the Awarded Shares do not vest, whether upon the termination of the Grantee’s Service (including without limitation Service to any successors to the Company or an Affiliate), or otherwise (including without limitation if the Company fails to meet one or more Performance Targets established as described in section 2(b) hereof or if the Grantee breaches any provision hereof, including without limitation the provisions of section 9 hereof), all dividends paid to the Grantee on Awarded Shares which have not vested (and which shall not thereafter vest in accordance with section 4 hereof) shall be forfeited, and shall be repaid to the Company within thirty (30) days after the date on which the Grantee’s obligation to repay such dividends accrues. For purposes hereof, such obligation to repay such dividends shall accrue (1) on such date as the Committee establishes that a Performance Target has not been met, as to all dividends paid on Awarded Shares which are forfeited due to failure to meet such Performance Target; (2) on the date of termination of Service, as to all dividends paid on Awarded Shares which are forfeited upon such termination of Service; and (3) upon forfeiture of unvested Awarded Shares upon a breach by the Grantee of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation any such forfeiture occurring after termination of Service).

If the Grantee’s termination of Service is due to resignation, discharge, or retirement prior to age 55 and does not meet the condition set forth in section 4(d) hereof, all rights to Awarded Shares not theretofore vested (including without limitation rights to dividends not theretofore paid and rights to retain dividends on Awarded Shares which have not theretofore vested, as more fully set forth in section 3(d) hereof) under this Agreement shall be immediately forfeited. Forfeited dividends shall be repaid to the Company within thirty (30) days after the Grantee’s termination of Service.

If the Grantee’s termination of Service is due to Disability or death, or if the Grantee converts to inactive employee status on account of a determination of such Grantee’s total and permanent Disability under any long-term disability plan of the Company or an Affiliate (a “Disability Plan”), the then-unvested portion of the Awarded Shares shall vest (1) in the case of the Grantee’s Disability, on the vesting schedule and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions (including without limitation satisfaction of the applicable Performance Targets) set forth in section 2 hereof, notwithstanding that the Grantee’s Service shall have previously terminated or the Grantee has converted to inactive employee status on account of Disability under any Disability Plan, and (2) in the case of the Grantee’s death, upon such termination of Service (treating the applicable Performance Targets in section 2 hereof as having been achieved).

If the Grantee’s termination of Service is due to retirement on or after age 55 after completing at least ten years of continuous Service with the Company and does not meet the condition set forth in section 4(d) hereof, a pro rata share of the then-unvested portion of the Awarded Shares (determined as follows: (A) with respect to any unvested Awarded Shares included in the First Vest, the product of (x) the quotient (which shall not exceed 1.0) of (I) the total number of full days of the Grantee’s Service completed during the Restricted Period divided by (II) 365, multiplied by (y) such unvested portion of the Awarded Shares, and rounded to the nearest share of Stock; (B) with respect to any unvested Awarded Shares included in the Second Vest, the product of (x) the quotient (which shall not exceed 1.0) of (I) the total number of full days of the Grantee’s Service completed during the Restricted Period divided by (II) 730, multiplied by (y) such unvested portion of the Awarded Shares, and rounded to the nearest share of Stock; and (C) with respect to any unvested Awarded Shares included in the Final Vest, the product of (x) the quotient (which shall not exceed 1.0) of (I) the total number of full days of the Grantee’s Service completed during the Restricted Period divided

If the Grantee’s termination of Service is due to retirement on or after age 50, and if, but only if, such retirement is evidenced by a writing which specifically acknowledges that this provision shall apply to such retirement and is executed by the Company’s chief executive officer (or, if the Grantee is an executive officer, by a member of the Committee or the chief executive officer at the direction of the Committee, other than with respect to himself), the then-unvested portion of the Awarded Shares shall vest on the vesting schedule and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions (including without limitation satisfaction of the applicable Performance Targets) set forth in section 2 hereof, notwithstanding that the Grantee’s Service shall have previously terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, after termination of Service but prior to vesting of all or a portion of the Awarded Shares, the Grantee breaches any provision hereof, including without limitation the provisions of section 9 hereof, the Grantee shall immediately forfeit all rights to the then-unvested Awarded Shares and any dividends theretofore paid on such then-unvested Awarded Shares. Forfeited dividends shall be repaid to the Company within thirty (30) days after the date on which the Grantee’s obligation to repay such dividends accrues.

If the Grantee's Service is terminated prior to vesting of all or a portion of the Awarded Shares for any reason other than as set forth in sections 4(a), (b), (c), and (d) hereof, or if an ambiguity exists as to the interpretation of those sections, the Committee shall determine whether the Grantee's then-unvested Awarded Shares shall be forfeited or whether the Grantee shall be entitled to full vesting or pro rata vesting as set forth above based upon completed days of service during the Restricted Period, and any Awarded Shares which may vest shall do so on the vesting schedule and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions (including without limitation satisfaction of the applicable Performance Targets) set forth in section 2 hereof, notwithstanding that the Grantee’s Service shall have previously terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, after termination of Service but prior to vesting of all or a portion of the Awarded Shares, the Grantee

During the Grantee's Service with the Company, and for a two-year period following the termination of the Grantee's Service with the Company, the Grantee agrees not to (i) compete or attempt to compete for, or act as a broker or otherwise participate in, any projects in which the Company has at any time done any work or undertaken any development efforts, or (ii) directly or indirectly solicit any of the Company’s customers, vendors, contractors, agents, or any other parties with which the Company has an existing or prospective business relationship, for the benefit of the Grantee or for the benefit of any third party, nor shall the Grantee accept consideration or negotiate or enter into agreements with such parties for the benefit of the Grantee or any third party.

The Grantee shall not, at any time or in any way, disparage the Company or its current or former officers, directors, and employees, orally or in writing, or make any statements that may be derogatory or detrimental to the Company’s good name or business reputation.

The Grantee acknowledges that the Company would not have an adequate remedy at law for monetary damages if the Grantee breaches these Protective Covenants. Therefore, in addition to all remedies to which the Company may be entitled for a breach or threatened breach of these Protective Covenants, including but not limited to monetary damages, the Company shall be entitled to specific enforcement of these Protective Covenants and to injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for a breach or threatened breach. In addition, upon any breach of these Protective Covenants or any separate confidentiality agreement or confidentiality provision between the Company and the Grantee, all the Grantee’s rights to receive theretofore unvested Awarded Shares and dividends relating thereto under this Agreement shall be forfeited.

For purposes of this section 9, the term “Company” shall include all Subsidiaries and other Affiliates of the Company (such Subsidiaries and other Affiliates being hereinafter referred to as the “NextEra Entities”). The Company and the Grantee agree that each of the NextEra Entities is an intended third-party beneficiary of this section 9, and further agree that each of the NextEra Entities is entitled to enforce the provisions of this section 9 in accordance with its terms.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the terms of these Protective Covenants shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in effect.
