The directors and executive officers of NextEra Energy and FPL are listed on Schedule I attached hereto, which is incorporated herein
by reference into this Item 2 (“Schedule 1”).

(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the other

The information set forth in Items 3 and 6 hereof is
hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 4.
Except as described in this Statement, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result
in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although the Reporting Persons, at any time and from time to time, may review, reconsider and change their position and/or change their purpose and/or
