(b) Recent Developments.

Following is summarized unaudited consolidated financial information for FPL Group:

                                                 Years Ended December 31,

As previously reported, in February 2008, a fault occurred at a FPL substation causing a system loss of about 3,400 megawatts of generating capacity, which left approximately 596,000 FPL customers without power. Power was restored to approximately two-thirds of affected customers within one hour and all customers were restored within three hours. In March 2008, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) opened a nonpublic formal investigation to determine whether the event involved any violations of the mandatory reliability standards of the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC). Following a period of fact finding and written correspondence by and between FPL and the FERC enforcement staff, FPL and the FERC staff have been engaged in discussions to determine whether the investigation can be resolved by settlement. FPL believes that, absent settlement, the FERC staff will pursue formal enforcement proceedings in which FPL expects the FERC may or will assert up to 25 or more violations of the reliability standards. The maximum statutory penalty for any violation of a reliability standard is $1 million per day. FPL believes that, in any such enforcement proceeding, the FERC may or will assert that some of the alleged violations have continued from January 1, 2008. FPL believes that it has meritorious defenses and will vigorously contest any penalties, should they be assessed. Although as of the date of this report FPL does not expect that the ultimate resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on its financial statements, management is unable to predict the outcome or related effect of this matter.
