WHEREAS, Section 8 of the Mortgage provides that the form of each
series of bonds (other than the first series) issued thereunder shall be
established by Resolution of the Board of Directors of FPL and that the form of
such series, as established by said Board of Directors, shall specify the
descriptive title of the bonds and various other terms thereof, and may also

expressing or referring to the terms and conditions upon which such bonds are to
be issued and/or secured under the Mortgage; and
WHEREAS, Section 120 of the Mortgage provides, among other things, that

contained therein, or in any supplemental indenture, or may establish the terms

instrument in writing executed and acknowledged by FPL in such manner as would
be necessary to entitle a conveyance of real estate to be recorded in all of the
states in which any property at the time subject to the Lien of the Mortgage
shall be situated; and
WHEREAS, FPL now desires to create the series of bonds described in
Article I hereof and to add to its covenants and agreements contained in the
Mortgage certain other covenants and agreements to be observed by it and to
alter and amend in certain respects the covenants and provisions contained in
the Mortgage; and
WHEREAS, the execution and delivery by FPL of this One Hundred Fourth

IN TRUST NEVERTHELESS, for the same purposes and upon the same terms,
trusts and conditions and subject to and with the same provisos and covenants as
are set forth in the Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented, this One Hundred
Fourth Supplemental Indenture being supplemental thereto.
AND IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED by FPL that all terms, conditions,
provisos, covenants and provisions contained in the Mortgage shall affect and
apply to the property hereinbefore described and conveyed and to the estate,
rights, obligations and duties of FPL and the Trustee and the beneficiaries of

said property had been owned by FPL at the time of the execution of the
Mortgage, and had been specifically and at length described in and conveyed to
said Trustee, by the Mortgage as a part of the property therein stated to be
conveyed.
FPL further covenants and agrees to and with the Trustee and its
successors in said trust under the Mortgage, as follows:
ARTICLE I
ONE HUNDRED SECOND SERIES OF BONDS
Section 1. (I) There shall be a series of bonds designated "5.95%
Series due October 1, 2033", herein sometimes referred to as the "One Hundred
Second Series", each of which shall also bear the descriptive title First
Mortgage Bond, and the form thereof, which shall be established by Resolution of
the Board of Directors of FPL, shall contain suitable provisions with respect to
the matters hereinafter in this Section specified. Bonds of the One Hundred
Second Series shall mature on October 1, 2033 and shall be issued as fully
registered bonds in denominations of One Thousand Dollars and, at the option of
FPL, in any multiple or multiples of One Thousand Dollars (the exercise of such
option to be evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof); they shall bear
interest at the rate of 5.95% per annum, payable semi-annually on April 1 and
October 1 of each year (each an "Interest Payment Date") commencing on April 1,
2004; the principal of and interest on each said bond to be payable at the
office or agency of FPL in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment
is legal tender for public and private debts. Bonds of the One Hundred Second
Series shall be dated as in Section 10 of the Mortgage provided. The record date
for payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date shall be the close of
business on (1) the business day immediately preceding such Interest Payment
Date so long as the bonds of the One Hundred Second Series are in book-entry
only form, registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company or any other
successor depositary or a nominee thereof or (2) the 15th calendar day
immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date if the bonds of the One Hundred
Second Series are not in book-entry only form, registered in the name of The
Depository Trust Company or any other successor depositary or a nominee thereof.
Interest on the bonds of the One Hundred Second Series will accrue from and
including October 15, 2003 to but excluding the first Interest Payment Date and,
thereafter, from and including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest
has been paid or duly provided for (and if no interest has been paid on the
-4-
bonds of the One Hundred Second Series, from October 15, 2003) to, but
excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. No interest will accrue on
a bond of the One Hundred Second Series for the day on which such bond matures.
The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable
for any period shorter than a full semi-annual period for which interest is
computed will be computed on the basis of the number of days in the period using
30-day calendar months.
(II) Bonds of the One Hundred Second Series shall be redeemable either
at the option of FPL or pursuant to the requirements of the Mortgage (including,
among other requirements, the application of cash delivered to or deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of Section 64 of the Mortgage or with
proceeds of Released Property) in whole at any time, or in part from time to
time, prior to maturity, upon notice, as provided in Section 52 of the Mortgage,
mailed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the
"Redemption Date"), at a price (the "Redemption Price") equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the
Redemption Date plus a premium, if any (the "Make-Whole Premium"). In no event
will the Redemption Price be less than 100% of the principal amount of the bonds
of the One Hundred Second Series being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest
to the Redemption Date.
The amount of the Make-Whole Premium with respect to any bond of the
One Hundred Second Series (or portion thereof) to be redeemed will be equal to
the excess, if any, of:
(1) the sum of the present values, calculated as of the Redemption
Date, of:
a. each interest payment that, but for such redemption, would
have been payable on the bond of the One Hundred Second
Series (or portion thereof) being redeemed on each Interest
Payment Date occurring after the Redemption Date (excluding
any accrued interest for the period prior to the Redemption
Date); and
b. the principal amount that, but for such redemption, would
have been payable at the final maturity of the bond of the
One Hundred Second Series (or portion thereof) being
redeemed; over
(2) the principal amount of the bond of the One Hundred Second Series
(or portion thereof) being redeemed.
The present values of interest and principal payments referred to in
clause (1) above will be determined in accordance with generally accepted
principles of financial analysis. Such present values will be calculated by
discounting the amount of each payment of interest or principal from the date
that each such payment would have been payable, but for the redemption, to the
Redemption Date at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield (as defined
below) plus 15 basis points.
The Make-Whole Premium will be calculated by an independent investment
banking institution of national standing appointed by FPL; provided that if FPL
fails to make such appointment at least 30 days prior to the Redemption Date, or
if the institution so appointed is unwilling or unable to make such calculation,
-5-
such calculation will be made by Barclays Capital Inc. or Xxxxxx Brothers Inc.
or, if such firms are unwilling or unable to make such calculation, by an
independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the
Trustee at the expense of FPL (in any such case, an "Independent Investment
Banker").
For purposes of determining the Make-Whole Premium, "Treasury Yield"
means a rate of interest per annum equal to the weekly average yield to maturity
of United States Treasury Notes that have a constant maturity that corresponds
to the remaining term to maturity of the bonds of the One Hundred Second Series
to be redeemed, calculated to the nearest 1/12th of a year (the "Remaining
Term"). The Treasury Yield will be determined as of the third business day
immediately preceding the applicable Redemption Date.
The weekly average yields of United States Treasury Notes will be
determined by reference to the most recent statistical release published by the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "H.15(519) Selected Interest
Rates" or any successor release (the "H.15 Statistical Release"). If the H.15
Statistical Release sets forth a weekly average yield for the United States
Treasury Notes having a constant maturity that is the same as the Remaining
Term, then the Treasury Yield will be equal to such weekly average yield. In all
other cases, the Treasury Yield will be calculated by interpolation, on a
straight-line basis, between the weekly average yields on the United States
Treasury Notes that have a constant maturity closest to and greater than the
Remaining Term and the United States Treasury Notes that have a constant
maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Term (in each case as set forth
in the H.15 Statistical Release). Any weekly average yields so calculated by
interpolation will be rounded to the nearest 1/100th of 1%, with any figure of
1/200th of 1% or above being rounded upward. If weekly average yields for United
States Treasury Notes are not available in the H.15 Statistical Release or
otherwise, then the Treasury Yield will be calculated by interpolation of
comparable rates selected by the Independent Investment Banker.
(III) At the option of the registered owner, any bonds of the One
Hundred Second Series, upon surrender thereof for exchange at the office or
agency of FPL in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, together with a
written instrument of transfer wherever required by FPL, duly executed by the
registered owner or by his duly authorized attorney, shall (subject to the
provisions of Section 12 of the Mortgage) be exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.
Bonds of the One Hundred Second Series shall be transferable (subject
to the provisions of Section 12 of the Mortgage) at the office or agency of FPL
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.
Upon any exchange or transfer of bonds of the One Hundred Second
Series, FPL may make a charge therefor sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or
taxes or other governmental charge, as provided in Section 12 of the Mortgage,
but FPL hereby waives any right to make a charge in addition thereto for any
exchange or transfer of bonds of the One Hundred Second Series.

Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the terms defined in the Mortgage, as heretofore

Indenture, have the meanings specified in the Mortgage, as heretofore

Section 4. The holders of bonds of the One Hundred Second Series
consent that FPL may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the
purpose of determining the holders of bonds of the One Hundred Second Series
entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is
fixed, those persons who were holders at such record date (or their duly
designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to consent to
such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given,
whether or not such persons continue to be holders after such record date. No
such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record
date.
Section 5. The Trustee hereby accepts the trust herein declared,
provided, created or supplemented and agrees to perform the same upon the terms
and conditions herein and in the Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented, set forth
and upon the following terms and conditions:
The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in
respect of the validity or sufficiency of this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental
Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which
recitals are made by FPL solely. In general, each and every term and condition
contained in Article XVII of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended, shall apply to
and form part of this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental Indenture with the same
force and effect as if the same were herein set forth in full with such
omissions, variations and insertions, if any, as may be appropriate to make the
same conform to the provisions of this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental
Indenture.
Section 6. Whenever in this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental Indenture
either of the parties hereto is named or referred to, this shall, subject to the
provisions of Articles XVI and XVII of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended, be
deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, and all the
covenants and agreements in this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of FPL, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, or either
of them, shall, subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the respective benefits
of the respective successors and assigns of such parties, whether so expressed
or not.
Section 7. Nothing in this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental Indenture,
expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to

holders of the bonds and coupons Outstanding under the Mortgage, any right,
-7-
remedy or claim under or by reason of this One Hundred Fourth Supplemental
Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof,
and all the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this
One Hundred Fourth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of FPL shall
be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto, and of the holders
of the bonds and coupons Outstanding under the Mortgage.
Section 8. The Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented and amended and as
supplemented hereby, is intended by the parties hereto, as to properties now or
hereafter encumbered thereby and located within the State of Georgia, to operate
and is to be construed as granting a lien only on such properties and not as a
deed passing title thereto.
Section 9. This One Hundred Fourth Supplemental Indenture shall be
executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of
which shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, FPL has caused its corporate name to be hereunto

its Vice Presidents, and its corporate seal to be attested by its Secretary or
one of its Assistant Secretaries for and in its behalf, and DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST
