PART I

Item 1. Business

General. FPL supplies electric service throughout most of the east and lower
west coasts of Florida. This service territory contains 27,650 square miles
with a population of approximately 6.5 million. During 1993, FPL served
approximately 3.4 million customer accounts. Operating revenues amounted to
approximately $5.2 billion, of which about 56% was derived from residential
customers, 37% from commercial customers, 4% from industrial customers and
3% from other sources.

FPL was incorporated in 1925 under the laws of Florida. All of its common
stock is owned by FPL Group; all of its preferred stock is held by
non-affiliated persons.

Holding Company Act. FPL Group is a public utility holding company as
defined in the Holding Company Act, but is exempt from substantially all of the
provisions thereof on the basis that FPL Group's and FPL's businesses are
predominantly intrastate in character and carried on substantially in a single
state, in which both are incorporated.

Regulation. The retail operations of FPL represent approximately 98% of
operating revenues and are regulated by the FPSC, which has jurisdiction over
retail rates, service territory, issuances of securities, planning, siting and
construction of facilities and other matters. FPL is also subject to regulation
by the FERC in various respects, including the acquisition and disposition of
certain facilities, interchange and transmission services and wholesale
purchases and sales of electric energy.

FPL is subject to the jurisdiction of the NRC with respect to its nuclear power
plants. NRC regulations govern the granting of licenses for the construction
and operation of nuclear power plants and subject such power plants to
continuing review and regulation.

Federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations cover air and water
quality, land use, power plant and transmission line siting, electric and
magnetic fields from power lines and substations, noise and aesthetics, solid
waste and other environmental matters. Compliance with these laws and
regulations increases the cost of electric service by requiring, among other
things, changes in the design and operation of existing facilities and changes
or delays in the location, design, construction and operation of new facilities.
FPL estimates that capital expenditures for improvements needed to comply with
environmental laws and regulations will be approximately $10 million to $30
million annually for the years 1994 through 1998. These amounts are included
in FPL's projected capital expenditures set forth in Item 1. Capital
Expenditures.

FPL holds franchises with varying expiration dates to provide electric service
in various municipalities and seven counties in Florida. FPL considers its
franchises to be adequate for the conduct of its business.

Retail Ratemaking. The underlying concept of utility ratemaking is to set rates
at a level that allows the utility to collect total revenues (revenue
requirements) equal to its cost of providing service, including a reasonable
return on invested capital. To accomplish this, the FPSC uses various
ratemaking mechanisms.

The basic costs of providing electric service, other than fuel and certain other
costs, are recovered through base rates, which are designed to recover the costs
of constructing, operating and maintaining the utility system. These costs
include operations and maintenance expenses, depreciation and taxes, as well as
a rate of return on FPL's investment in assets used and useful in providing
electric service (rate base). The rate of return on rate base approximates
FPL's weighted cost of capital, which includes its costs for debt and preferred
stock and an allowed ROE. Base rates are determined in rate proceedings which
occur at irregular intervals at the initiative of FPL, the FPSC or a
substantially affected party.

Fuel costs are recovered through levelized monthly charges established pursuant
to the fuel clause. These charges, which are calculated semi-annually, are
based on estimated costs of fuel and estimated customer usage for the ensuing
six-month period, plus or minus a true-up adjustment to reflect the variance
of actual costs and usage from the estimates used in setting the fuel
adjustment charges for prior periods.

Capacity payments to other utilities and generators for purchased power are
recovered primarily through the capacity clause. Costs associated with
implementing energy conservation programs are recovered through rates
established pursuant to the conservation clause. Certain other non-fuel costs
and the accelerated recovery of the costs of certain projects that displace
oil-fired generation are recovered through the oil-backout clause.

Beginning in April 1994, costs of complying with new federal, state and local
environmental regulations will be recovered through the environmental
compliance cost recovery clause. In the past such costs would have been
recoverable through base rates.

The FPSC has the power to disallow recovery of costs which it considers
excessive or imprudently incurred. Such costs may include operations and
maintenance expenses, the cost of replacing power lost when fossil and nuclear
units are unavailable and costs associated with the construction or acquisition
of new facilities. Also, the FPSC does not provide any assurance that the
allowed ROE will be achieved.

System Capability and Load. FPL's resources for serving load as of January 1,
1994 consist of 16,708 mw of firm electric power generated by FPL-owned
facilities (see Item 2. Properties) and obtained through purchased power
contracts (see table below).

On August 4, 1993, FPL reached an all-time energy peak demand of
approximately 15,266 mw. At that time, FPL had total installed generating
capability of about 14,643 mw, 2,054 mw of firm purchased power and the
capability to reduce peak demand by 520 mw through the implementation of load
management, resulting in a reserve margin of approximately 13%.

Compound annual growth rates for the five years ending 1998 are projected to
be 2.7% for kwh sales and 2.6% for customers. To meet this growth, FPL plans
to add 1,090 mw of new plant capacity to its system by the summer of 1995 as
shown below. No new plant additions are expected for the years 1996 through
1998.

In addition to the capacity additions listed above, FPL plans by 1998 to
increase purchased power from other utilities and qualifying facilities by
325 mw (see table below).

The total amount of purchased power available under existing long-term
contracts with other utilities and qualifying facilities through 1998 is
presented in the table below. See Note 10 - Contracts.

Capital Expenditures. FPL's capital expenditures, including AFUDC, totaled
approximately $1.1 billion in 1993, $1.3 billion in 1992 and $1.2 billion in
1991. Capital expenditures for the 1994-98 period are estimated as follows
(see Management's Discussion):

All of these estimates are subject to continuing review and adjustment and
actual capital expenditures may vary from estimates.

Nuclear Operations. FPL owns and operates four nuclear units, two at St.
Lucie and two at Turkey Point. The operating licenses for St. Lucie Units
Nos. 1 and 2 expire in 2016 and 2023, respectively. The operating licenses
for both Turkey Point units expire in 2007. The nuclear units are
periodically removed from service to accommodate normal refueling and
maintenance outages, repairs and certain other modifications.

Indications of degradation have been found in the pressurized water
circulation tubes of the St. Lucie Units Nos. 1 and 2 steam generators.
Despite implementation of remedial measures, degradation of the Unit No. 1
steam generators has continued and FPL has determined that they will need to
be replaced. FPL has ordered the replacement steam generators for Unit
No. 1, which are scheduled to be installed and in service by the end of 1998,
the cost of which is included in FPL's projected capital expenditures set
forth above. The degradation in the Unit No. 2 steam generators appears to
be primarily a mechanical-wear problem and should not affect their useful
life.

Fuel. FPL's generating plants are fueled by residual and distillate oil,
natural gas, coal and nuclear fuel. The diverse fuel options, along with
purchased power, enable FPL to shift between sources of generation to achieve
the most economical fuel mix. FPL's oil requirements are obtained under
short-term contracts and in the spot market.

FPL obtains most of its natural gas requirements under a take-or-pay
transportation contract with FGT, the sole interstate pipeline in Florida,
and a related take-or-pay natural gas supply contract with an affiliate of
FGT. These contracts will expire in 2005. In 1992, FPL entered into an
additional take-or-pay transportation contract with FGT and a related
take-or-pay natural gas supply contract with another affiliate of FGT. The
new contracts will begin on the in-service date of FGT's pipeline expansion,
which is scheduled for late 1994, and expire in 2014 and 2009, respectively.
These contracts will provide an additional firm supply of natural gas under
competitive pricing terms to meet FPL's future gas requirements. See
Note 10 - Contracts.

FPL has, through its joint ownership interest in SJRPP Units Nos. 1 and 2 and
Scherer Unit No. 4, long-term coal supply contracts for those units. The
remaining coal requirements will be obtained under additional contracts or in
the open market.

FPL leases nuclear fuel for all four of its nuclear units. See Note 5.
Under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, the DOE is required to construct
permanent storage facilities and will take title to and provide
transportation and storage for spent nuclear fuel for a specified fee.
Although the DOE estimates that its storage facilities will be completed by
the year 2010, there is considerable doubt within the utility industry that
this schedule will be met. Currently, FPL is storing spent fuel on site and
plans to provide adequate storage capacity for all of its spent nuclear fuel
up to and beyond the year 2010, pending its removal by the DOE.

Competition. FPL faces increasing competition in the wholesale and industrial
energy markets. Recent changes in governmental regulation are encouraging
the growth of non-regulated energy suppliers, such as EWGs, and an increased
interest in self-generation, which has provided customers with alternative
sources to meet their electric needs. Competition exists particularly with
respect to self-generation by large industrial, commercial and governmental
energy users. See Item 1.

Business - General. Regulatory law and policy limit FPL's flexibility in
pricing its services to these customers. To date, loss of customers to such
alternatives has not materially reduced FPL's sales, revenues or net income.

The FERC has exercised its enhanced power under the Energy Act over wholesale
transmission to encourage competition. In 1993, FPL filed with the FERC a
comprehensive revision and expansion of its service offerings in the
wholesale market. FPL has proposed changes to its wholesale sales tariffs
for service to municipal and cooperatively-owned electric utilities, its
power sharing (interchange) agreements with other utilities and expanded its
transmission offerings for new services by switching from individually
negotiated contracts to three tariffs of general applicability. These
revised offerings are intended to meet wholesale customer needs in the new
competitive marketplace, while protecting the interests of FPL's customers
and shareholders by eliminating the potential for subsidies to competitors.
The FERC accepted FPL's proposal for filing and scheduled an August 1994
hearing on issues raised. FPL began collecting the proposed rates in late
February 1994 subject to refund based on the outcome of the hearing. A final
decision by the FERC in this case is not expected until sometime in 1995.

Also in 1993, the Florida Municipal Power Agency (FMPA) requested the FERC,
under the FERC's new authority under the Energy Act, to order FPL to provide
the FMPA members with network transmission service. FPL currently provides
point-to-point transmission service to the FMPA. Network transmission
service would permit the FMPA to vary the receipt and delivery points for
power without the prior agreement of FPL. In late 1993, the FERC ordered the
FMPA to provide FPL with certain updated information and for the parties to
negotiate for 60 days towards a network service agreement. Because no
agreement was reached, FPL and the FMPA filed their respective positions and
proposals for the FERC's consideration. An initial FERC decision on this
matter is expected in late 1994.

FPL is presently a defendant in two antitrust suits. In each suit, the
complaint includes an alleged inability to utilize FPL's transmission
facilities to wheel power to facilities in order to displace the existing
retail electric service from FPL. See Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Electric and Magnetic Fields. In recent years, increasing public, scientific
and regulatory attention has been focused on possible adverse health effects
of EMF. These fields are created whenever electricity flows through a power
line or an appliance. Several epidemiological (i.e., statistical) studies
have suggested a linkage between EMF and certain types of cancer, primarily
childhood leukemia; other studies have been inconclusive or have shown no
such linkage. Neither these epidemiological studies nor clinical studies
have produced any conclusive evidence that EMF does or does not cause adverse
health effects.

The FDEP has promulgated regulations setting standards for EMF levels within
and at the edge of the rights of way for transmission lines, and FPL is in
compliance with these regulations. The FDEP reviewed its EMF standards in
1992 and confirmed the field limits previously established. Future changes
in the standards could require additional capital expenditures by FPL for
such things as increasing the right of way corridors or relocating or
reconfiguring transmission facilities. At present it is not known whether
any such expenditures will be required.

In addition, litigation seeking damages for diminution of property value or
personal injury is likely. FPL is presently a defendant in one suit alleging
personal injury and wrongful death.

Employees. FPL had approximately 12,000 employees at December 31, 1993.
Approximately 37% of the employees are represented by the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers whose collective bargaining agreement with
FPL expires October 31, 1994.

Item 2. Properties

General. FPL considers that its properties are well maintained and in good
operating condition. The electric generating, transmission, distribution and
general facilities represent approximately 48%, 12%, 33% and 7%,
respectively, of FPL's gross investment in electric utility plant in service.

Generating Facilities. As of December 31, 1993, FPL had the following
generating facilities:

Character of Ownership. Substantially all of FPL's properties are subject to
the lien of its mortgage, which secures debt securities issued by FPL. The
principal properties of FPL are held by it in fee and are free from other
encumbrances, subject to minor exceptions, none of which is of such a nature
as to substantially impair the usefulness to FPL of such properties. Some of
the electric lines are located on land not owned in fee but are covered by
necessary consents of governmental authorities or rights obtained from owners
of private property.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

In October 1988, Union Carbide Corporation, the corporate predecessor of
Praxair, Inc. (Praxair), filed suit against FPL and Florida Power Corporation
(Florida Power) in the United States District Court for the Middle District
of Florida. Praxair requested that Florida Power sell power to its facility
located within FPL's service territory, and that FPL transport the power to
the facility. Florida Power and FPL denied the request as being
inconsistent with Florida law and public policy. The FPSC has issued a
declaratory statement that FPL's denial of Praxair's request was proper and
ordered FPL not to wheel power under such circumstances. The suit alleges
that through a territorial agreement, FPL and Florida Power have conspired to
eliminate competition for the sale of electric power to retail customers,
thereby unreasonably restraining trade and commerce in violation of federal
antitrust laws as contained in Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act
(Sherman Act). The suit seeks an award of three times Praxair's alleged
damages in an unspecified amount based on alleged higher prices paid for
electricity and product sales lost by Praxair. Cross motions for summary
judgment were denied. Both parties are appealing the denials.

In November 1988, TEC Cogeneration, Inc., its affiliate Thermo Electron
Corporation, RRD Corp. and its affiliate Rolls Royce Inc. filed suit in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against FPL
and FPL Group on behalf of South Florida Cogeneration Associates (SFCA), a
joint venture which since 1986 has operated a cogeneration facility for
Metropolitan Dade County within FPL's service territory in Miami, Florida.
The suit alleges that the defendants have engaged in anti-competitive conduct
intended to prevent and defeat competition from cogenerators within FPL's
service territory, and from SFCA's Metropolitan Dade County facility in
particular. It alleges that the defendants' actions constitute
monopolization and attempts to monopolize in violation of Section 2 of the
Sherman Act; conspiracy in restraint of trade in violation of Section 1 of
the Sherman Act; unlawful discrimination in prices, services or facilities in
violation of Section 2 of the Clayton Act; and intentional interference with
SFCA's contractual relationship with Metropolitan Dade County in violation of
Florida law. The suit seeks damages in excess of $100 million, to be trebled
under the Sherman and Clayton Acts, as well as compensatory and punitive
damages under Florida law, and injunctive relief. FPL's motion for summary
judgment has been denied.

FPL believes that it has meritorious defenses to all of the litigation
described above and is vigorously defending these suits. Accordingly, the
liabilities, if any, arising from this litigation are not anticipated to have
a material adverse effect on FPL's financial statements.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three periods presented, net income benefitted from increased energy
sales, primarily from customer growth, and the effects of cost control
measures. Charges associated with a cost reduction program in 1993 and a
corporate restructuring in 1991 reduced net income in those years. In
addition, 1992 net income was adversely affected by Hurricane Andrew. In the
following discussion, all comparisons are with the corresponding items in the
prior year.

Operating Income - FPL's retail operations are regulated by the FPSC. Energy
sales to retail customers, which represent over 96% of total energy sales,
increased 4.0%, 0.1% and 3.3% in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Retail
customer growth for those years was 2.1%, 1.7% and 2.1%, respectively.
Revenues from base rates, which represented 61%, 57% and 56% of operating
revenues for 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively, increased for the three years
presented due to higher energy sales. Revenues derived from cost recovery
clauses (including fuel) and franchise fees comprise substantially all of the
remaining portion of operating revenues. These revenues represent a pass-
through of costs and do not significantly affect net income.

With increasing competition in the utility industry, FPL is continuing its
efforts to reduce its operating and capital costs and avoid filing for rate
increases, the traditional response to increased rate base and cost
pressures. In connection with these efforts, a major cost reduction program
was implemented during 1993, resulting in a $138 million pretax charge. The
charge consisted primarily of severance pay and employee retirement benefits
related to a workforce reduction of approximately 1,700 positions.
Approximately 45% of the charge relates to retirement benefits.
Substantially all of the balance represents severance costs, of which about
$60 million remains to be paid in 1994. In addition, substantial reductions
were reflected in FPL's 1994-98 capital expenditure forecast, including a
$210 million reduction from the previous capital expenditure forecast for
1994. The majority of the reductions in the 1994-97 period reflect a
decrease in transmission and distribution expenditures through more efficient
use of existing plant and more cost effective designs for new facilities. In
1991, FPL implemented a corporate restructuring that eliminated approximately
1,400 FPL positions and about 900 contractor positions. See Note 2.

Other operations and maintenance expenses reflect cost savings from the 1991
restructuring, partially offset by the effects of an increasing customer
base, changes in prices and operating activities, as well as the
implementation of two new accounting standards relating to postretirement and
postemployment benefits. See Note 4. As a result of FPL's recent cost
reduction measures, other operations and maintenance expense is expected to
decline in 1994, despite projected sales growth, additional generating units
in service and two additional nuclear refueling outages. Higher utility
plant balances, reflecting facilities added to meet customer growth, resulted
in increased depreciation expense. FPL filed new depreciation studies with
the FPSC in December 1993. Changes in depreciation rates, when adopted, will
be retroactive to January 1994 and, together with increases in utility plant,
will increase depreciation expense in 1994. In addition, FPL is scheduled to
file updated nuclear decommissioning studies with the FPSC in December 1994.
Changes, if any, in the accrual for nuclear decommissioning costs will be
effective January 1995. See Note 1.

Non-Operating Income and Deductions - AFUDC increased in 1993 and 1992 due to
higher construction activity in the generation area. In future periods AFUDC
is expected to decrease because the repowered Lauderdale units were placed in
service in the second quarter of 1993, the Martin units are scheduled to be
in service by June 1994 and no new generating capacity is under construction.

During the three year period, FPL has been refunding existing debt and
preferred stock with lower rate instruments. The reduction in interest due
to these refundings has been offset by the interest on new debt issued to
fund growth in electric plant. Premiums paid on the redemption of FPL debt
are amortized over the remaining life of the respective debt securities,
consistent with the ratemaking treatment. See Note 1.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital Requirements and Resources - FPL's primary capital requirements
consist of expenditures under its construction program. Total capital
expenditures for the period 1994-98, including AFUDC, are expected to be $3.7
billion, including $879 million in 1994. Internally generated funds are
expected to fund an increasing percentage of capital expenditures. The
balance will be provided primarily through the issuance of long-term debt,
preferred stock and commercial paper. See Note 7.

Debt maturities and minimum sinking fund requirements will require cash
outflows of approximately $376 million through 1998, including $2 million in
1994. See Note 8. Bank lines of credit currently available to FPL aggregate
$800 million.

Financial Covenants - FPL's charter and mortgage contain provisions which,
under certain conditions, restrict the payment of dividends and other
distributions to FPL Group. Given FPL's current financial condition and
level of earnings, these restrictions do not currently limit FPL's ability to
pay dividends to FPL Group. FPL's charter limits the amount of unsecured
debt and FPL's mortgage limits the amount of secured debt FPL can issue. At
December 31, 1993, the charter and mortgage provisions would allow issuance
of approximately $1.3 billion of additional unsecured debt and $5.5 billion
of additional first mortgage bonds, respectively. The amount of additional
first mortgage bonds that are permitted to be issued will increase as the
amount of unfunded property additions increases. FPL's charter also
prohibits the issuance of preferred stock unless the preferred stock coverage
ratio, as prescribed, is at least 1.5; for the twelve months ended December
31, 1993 it was 2.24.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years Ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991

1. Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies

Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) and its subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. FPL is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FPL Group, Inc. (FPL
Group). Certain amounts included in prior years' consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's
presentation.

Regulation - FPL's accounting practices are subject to regulation by the
Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC). As a result of such regulation, FPL follows the
accounting practices set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
(SFAS) No. 71, "Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation."

Revenues and Rates - Retail and wholesale utility rate schedules are approved
by the FPSC and the FERC, respectively. FPL records the estimated amount of
base revenues for energy delivered to customers but not billed. Such
unbilled revenues are included in receivables - customers and amounted to
approximately $112 million and $120 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.

Revenues include amounts resulting from cost recovery clauses, which are
designed to permit full recovery of certain costs and provide a return on
certain assets utilized by these programs, and franchise fees. Such revenues
represent a pass-through of costs and include substantially all fuel,
purchased power and interchange expenses, conservation-related expenses,
revenue taxes and franchise fees. Revenues from cost recovery clauses are
recorded when billed; FPL achieves matching of costs and related revenues by
deferring the net under or over recovery.

Electric Utility Plant, Depreciation and Amortization - The cost of additions
to units of utility property is added to electric utility plant. The cost of
units of property retired, less net salvage, is charged to accumulated
depreciation. Maintenance and repairs of property as well as replacements
and renewals of items determined to be less than units of property are
charged to other operations and maintenance expense.

Depreciation of utility property is provided primarily on a straight-line
average remaining life basis. Depreciation studies are performed at least
every four years for substantially all utility property. The weighted annual
composite depreciation rate was approximately 3.9%, 3.5% and 3.8% for the
years 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. These rates exclude decommissioning
expense and certain accelerated depreciation under cost recovery clauses.
All depreciation methods and rates are approved by the FPSC.

Nuclear fuel costs, including a charge for spent nuclear fuel disposal, is
accrued in fuel expense on a unit of production method.

Substantially all electric utility plant is subject to the lien of the
Mortgage and Deed of Trust, as supplemented, securing FPL's first mortgage
bonds.

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) - FPL recognizes AFUDC
as a noncash item which represents the allowed cost of capital used to
finance a portion of its construction work in progress. AFUDC is capitalized
as an additional cost of utility plant and is recorded as an addition to
income. The capitalization rate used in computing AFUDC was 8.67% from
January 1993 through June 1993, 8.26% from July 1993 through December 1993,
8.61% in 1992 and 8.46% in 1991.

Nuclear Decommissioning - FPL accrues nuclear decommissioning costs over the
expected service life of each plant. Nuclear decommissioning studies are
performed at least every five years for FPL's four nuclear units. A
provision for nuclear decommissioning of $38 million for each of the years
1993, 1992 and 1991 is included in depreciation expense. The accumulated
provision for nuclear decommissioning totaled $445 million and $390 million
at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively, and is included in accumulated
depreciation.

Amounts equal to decommissioning expense are deposited in either qualified
funds on a pretax basis or in a non-qualified fund on a net of tax basis.
Fund earnings, net of taxes, are reinvested in the funds. Both fund earnings
and the charge resulting from reinvestment of the earnings are included in
other income (deductions). The related income tax effects are included in
deferred taxes. The decommissioning reserve funds may be used only for the
payment of the cost of decommissioning FPL's nuclear units. Securities held
in the funds consist primarily of tax-exempt obligations and are carried at
cost. See Note 9.

The most recent decommissioning studies assume prompt dismantlement for the
Turkey Point nuclear units commencing in the year 2005 and for St. Lucie Unit
No. 2 commencing in 2021. St. Lucie Unit No. 1 will be mothballed in 2016
until St. Lucie Unit No. 2 is ready for dismantlement. FPL's portion of the
cost of decommissioning these units, including dismantlement and reclamation,
expressed in 1993 dollars, is currently estimated to aggregate $935 million.

Storm and Property Insurance Reserve Fund - The storm and property insurance
reserve fund provides coverage toward storm damage costs and possible
retrospective premium assessments stemming from a nuclear incident under the
various insurance programs covering FPL's nuclear generating plants. The
storm and property insurance reserve represents amounts accumulated to date
net of expenditures for storm damages. The related income tax effects are
included in accumulated deferred income taxes. Securities held in the fund
consist primarily of tax-exempt obligations and are carried at cost. In
1992, $21 million of the storm fund was used for storm damage costs
associated with Hurricane Andrew. See Note 9.

Cash Equivalents - Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less. The carrying
amount of these investments approximates their market value.

Retirement of Long-Term Debt - The excess of reacquisition cost over the book
value of long-term debt is deferred and amortized to expense ratably over the
remaining life of the original issue, which is consistent with its treatment
in the ratemaking process.

Rate Matters - Deferred litigation items at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
represent costs approved by the FPSC for recovery over five years commencing
with the effective date of new base rates to be established in the next
general rate proceeding.

Income Taxes - Deferred income taxes are provided on all significant temporary
differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities. Investment tax credits are used to reduce current federal income
taxes and are deferred and amortized to income over the approximate lives of
the related property. FPL is included in the consolidated federal income tax
return filed by FPL Group. FPL determines its income tax provision on the
"separate return method." See Note 3.

2. Cost Reduction Program and Restructuring Charge

In 1993, FPL implemented a major cost reduction program, which resulted in a
$138 million charge and reduced net income by approximately $85 million. The
program consisted primarily of a Voluntary Retirement Plan (VRP) and a
Special Severance Plan (SSP). The VRP was offered to all employees who were
at least 54 years of age and had at least 10 years of service. The plan,
among other things, added five years to age and service for the determination
of plan benefits to be received by eligible employees. Approximately 700
employees, or 75% of those eligible, elected to retire under this program.
The impact on pension cost resulting from the two programs as determined
under the provisions of SFAS No. 88, "Employers' Accounting for Settlements
and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination
Benefits," was approximately $34 million. The impact on postretirement
benefits as determined under SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" was approximately $29 million.
These amounts are included as part of the total charge of $138 million. See
Note 4.

In 1991, FPL recorded a $90 million restructuring charge in connection with
a company-wide restructuring which reduced net income by $56 million. The
charge included severance pay for departing employees, as well as relocation
and facility modification expenditures.

3. Income Taxes

In 1993, FPL adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
requires the use of the liability method in accounting for income taxes.
Under the liability method, the tax effect of temporary differences between
the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities are reported
as deferred taxes measured at current tax rates. The principal effect of
adopting SFAS No. 109 was the reclassification of the revenue equivalent of
deferred taxes in excess of the amount required to be reported as a liability
under SFAS No. 109 from accumulated deferred income taxes to a newly-
established deferred regulatory credit - income taxes. This amount will be
amortized over the estimated lives of the assets or liabilities which
resulted in the initial recognition of the deferred tax amount. Adoption of
this standard had no effect on results of operations. The net result of
amortizing the deferred regulatory credit and the related deferred taxes
established under SFAS No. 109 is to yield comparable amounts to those
included in the tax provision under accounting rules applicable to prior
periods.

The components of income taxes are as follows:

4. Employee Retirement Benefits

Pension Benefits - Substantially all employees of FPL are covered by FPL
Group's noncontributory defined benefit pension plan. Plan benefits are
generally based on employees' years of service and compensation during the
last years of employment. Participants are vested after five years of
service. Plan assets consist primarily of bonds, common stocks and short-
term investments. Any pension cost recognized by FPL Group is allocated to
FPL on a pro rata basis.

For 1993, 1992 and 1991 the components of pension cost which were allocated
to FPL, a portion of which has been capitalized, are as follows:

Prior to 1993, an adjustment was made to reflect in the results of operations
the pension cost calculated under the actuarial cost method used for
ratemaking purposes. In 1993, FPL adopted consistent pension measurements
for ratemaking and financial reporting. The accumulated regulatory
adjustment is being amortized to income over five years. At December 31,
1993 and 1992, the cumulative amounts of these regulatory adjustments
included in other deferred credits were approximately $16 million and $20
million, respectively.

During 1992, the method used for valuing plan assets in the calculation of
pension cost was changed from fair value to a calculated market-related
value. The new method was adopted to reduce the volatility in annual pension
expense that results from short-term fluctuations in the securities markets.
The cumulative effect of the change was to reduce prepaid pension cost and
the related accumulated regulatory adjustment by approximately $37 million,
with no effect on earnings.

During 1993, the effect of a prior plan amendment that changed the manner in
which benefits accrue was recognized and included as part of prior service
cost to be amortized over the remaining service life of the employees.

FPL funds the pension cost calculated under the entry age normal level
percentage of pay actuarial cost method, provided that this amount satisfies
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act minimum funding standards and is
not greater than the maximum tax deductible amount for the year. No
contributions to the plan were required for 1993, 1992 or 1991.

In 1993, the FPL pension plan and the FPL Group pension plan were combined.
Accordingly, the 1992 amounts have been restated to present the position of
the combined plans. Any pension cost recognized by FPL Group has been
allocated to FPL on a pro rata basis. At December 31, 1993, the portion of
prepaid pension cost recognized in FPL's statement of position was a
liability of approximately $.3 million. A reconciliation of the funded
status of the combined FPL Group Plan is presented below:

(1) Includes $37 million effect of changing to calculated market-related
method of valuing plan assets.

As of December 31, 1993 and 1992, the weighted-average discount rate used in
determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation
was 7.0% and 6.0%, respectively. The assumed rate of increase in future
compensation levels at those respective dates was 5.5% and 6.0%. The
expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used in determining pension
cost was 7.75% for 1993 and 7.0% for 1992 and 1991.

Other Postretirement Benefits - Substantially all employees of FPL are covered
by FPL Group's defined benefit postretirement plans for health care and life
insurance benefits. Eligibility for health care benefits is based upon age
plus years of service at retirement. The plans are contributory, and contain
cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. FPL Group has
capped company contributions for postretirement health care at a defined
level which, depending on actual claims experience, may be reached by the
year 2000. Generally, life insurance benefits for retirees are capped at
$50,000. FPL Group's policy is to fund postretirement benefits in amounts
determined at the discretion of management. Benefit payments in 1993 and
1992 totaled $13 million and $12 million, respectively, and were paid out of
existing plan assets.

In 1993, FPL adopted SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
Benefits Other than Pensions." For the year ended December 31, 1993, the
components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost allocated to FPL, a
portion of which has been capitalized, are as follows:

Accrued postretirement benefit cost. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $44,808

The weighted-average annual assumed rate of increase in the per capita cost
of covered benefits (i.e., health care cost trend rate) for 1993 is 10.5% for
retirees under age 65 and 6.5% for retirees over age 65. These rates are
assumed to decrease gradually to 6.0% by the year 2000, which is when it is
anticipated that benefit costs will reach the defined level at which FPL
Group's contributions will be capped. The cap on FPL Group's contributions
mitigates the potential significant increase

in costs resulting from an increase in the health care cost trend rate.
Increasing the assumed health care cost trend rate by one percentage point
would increase the plan's accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of
December 31, 1993 by $8 million, and the aggregate of the service and
interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost of the
plan for 1993 by approximately $1 million.

The weighted-average discount rate used in determining the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 7.0% at December 31, 1993. The
expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was 7.75% at December 31,
1993.

Postemployment Benefits - In 1993, FPL adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," which requires a change from
recognizing expenses when paid to recording the benefits as the liability is
incurred. Implementation of this pronouncement did not have a material
effect on FPL's results of operations.

5. Leases

In 1991, FPL expanded its nuclear fuel lease program to include all four of
its nuclear units. In connection with this expansion, FPL sold to a
non-affiliated lessor and leased back approximately $220 million of nuclear
fuel held in reactors of these units, as well as nuclear fuel in various
stages of enrichment. The fuel was sold at book value. Nuclear fuel
payments, which are based on energy production and are charged to fuel
expense, were $122 million, $120 million and $81 million for the years ended
December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Included in these payments
was an interest component of $11 million, $13 million and $9 million in 1993,
1992 and 1991, respectively. Under certain circumstances of lease
termination, FPL is required to purchase all nuclear fuel in whatever form at
a purchase price designed to allow the lessor to recover its net investment
cost in the fuel, which totaled $226 million at December 31, 1993. For
ratemaking purposes, the leases encompassed within this lease arrangement are
classified as operating leases. For financial reporting purposes, the
capital lease obligation is recorded at the amount due in the event of lease
termination.

In 1992, FPL entered into a noncancellable capital lease arrangement for an
office building whose net book value at December 31, 1993 and 1992 was
approximately $46 million and $48 million, respectively. The present value
of future minimum lease payments at December 31, 1993 totaled $49 million.
Future minimum annual lease payments under this lease arrangement, which
expires in 2016, are estimated to be $4 million.

Excluding these leases, the amount of assets and capitalized lease
obligations for other capital leases is not material.

FPL leases automotive, computer, office and other equipment through rental
agreements with various terms and expiration dates. Rental expense totaled
$31 million, $53 million and $50 million for 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively. Minimum annual rental commitments for noncancellable operating
leases are $21 million for 1994, $18 million for 1995, $12 million for 1996,
$6 million for 1997, $5 million for 1998 and $13 million thereafter.

6. Jointly-Owned Facilities

FPL owns approximately 85% of the St. Lucie Nuclear Unit No. 2, 20% of the
St. Johns River Power Park (SJRPP) units and coal terminal and a 49%
undivided interest in Scherer Unit No. 4. FPL expects to purchase an
additional 27% undivided ownership interest in Scherer Unit No. 4 in two
stages through 1995. At December 31, 1993, FPL's investment in St. Lucie
Unit No. 2 was $768 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $397 million;
the investment in the SJRPP units and coal terminal was $221 million, net of
accumulated depreciation of $110 million; the investment in Scherer Unit No.
4 was $296 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $54 million.

FPL is responsible for its share of the operating costs, as well as providing
its own financing. At December 31, 1993, there was no significant balance of
construction work in progress on these facilities.

FPL's charter and mortgage contain provisions that, under certain conditions,
restrict the payment of dividends and other distributions to FPL Group.
Given FPL's current financial condition and level of earnings, these
restrictions do not currently limit FPL's ability to pay dividends to FPL
Group.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Capital Commitments - FPL has made certain commitments in connection with its
projected capital expenditures. These expenditures, for the construction or
acquisition of additional facilities and equipment to meet customer demand,
are estimated to be $3.7 billion, including AFUDC, for the years 1994 through
1998.

Insurance - Liability for accidents at nuclear power plants is governed by the
Price-Anderson Act, which limits the liability of nuclear reactor owners to
the amount of the insurance available from private sources and under an
industry retrospective payment plan. In accordance with this Act, FPL
maintains $200 million of private liability insurance, which is the maximum
obtainable, and participates in a secondary financial protection system under
which it is subject to retrospective assessments of up to $317 million per
incident at any nuclear utility reactor in the United States, payable at a
rate not to exceed $40 million per incident per year.

FPL participates in insurance pools and other arrangements that provide $2.75
billion of limited insurance coverage for property damage, decontamination
and premature decommissioning risks at its nuclear plants. The proceeds from
such insurance, however, must first be used for reactor stabilization and
site decontamination before they can be used for plant repair. FPL also
participates in an insurance program that provides limited coverage for
replacement power costs if a plant is out of service because of an accident.
In the event of an accident at one of FPL's or another participating
insured's nuclear plant, FPL could be assessed up to $58 million in
retrospective premiums, and in the event of a subsequent accident at such
nuclear plants during the policy period, the maximum assessment is $72
million under the programs in effect at December 31, 1993. This contingent
liability would be partially offset by a portion of FPL's storm and property
insurance reserve (storm fund), which totaled $82 million at that date.

In the event of a catastrophic loss at one of FPL's nuclear plants, the
amount of insurance available may not be adequate to cover property damage
and other expenses incurred. Uninsured losses, to the extent not recovered
through rates, would be borne by FPL and could have a material adverse effect
on FPL's financial condition.

In 1993, FPL replaced its transmission and distribution (T&D) property
insurance coverage with a self-insurance program due to the high cost and
limited coverage available from third-party insurers. Costs incurred under
the self-insurance program will be charged against FPL's storm fund.
Recovery of any losses in excess of the storm fund from ratepayers will
require the approval of the FPSC. FPL's available lines of credit include
$300 million to provide additional liquidity in the event of a T&D property
loss.

Contracts - FPL has take-or-pay contracts with the Jacksonville Electric
Authority (JEA) for 374 megawatts (mw) through 2023 and with the subsidiaries
of the Southern Company to purchase 1,406 mw of power through May 1994, and
declining amounts thereafter through mid-2010. FPL also has various firm
pay-for-performance contracts to purchase 1,031 mw from certain cogenerators
and small power producers (qualifying facilities) with expiration dates
ranging from 2002 through 2026. These contracts provide for capacity and
energy payments. Capacity payments for the pay-for-performance contracts are
subject to the qualifying facilities meeting certain contract obligations.
Energy payments are based on the actual power taken under these contracts.

The required capacity payments through 1998 under these contracts are
estimated to be as follows:

1994 1995 1996 1997 1998
(In Millions)

JEA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 80 $ 80 $ 80 $ 80 $ 80

Qualifying Facilities. . . . . . . . . 140 160 310 340 350

FPL's capacity and energy charges under these contracts for 1993, 1992 and
1991 were as follows:

1993 Charges 1992 Charges 1991 Charges
Capacity Energy(3) Capacity Energy(3) Capacity Energy(3)

(1) Recovered through base rates and the capacity cost recovery clause
(capacity clause).
(2) Recovered through the capacity clause.
(3) Recovered through the fuel and purchased power cost recovery clause.
(4) Recoverable through base rates.

FPL has take-or-pay contracts for the supply and transportation of natural
gas under which it is required to make payments estimated to be $280 million
for 1994, $380 million for 1995 and $390 million for each of the years 1996,
1997 and 1998. Total payments made under these contracts were $270 million,
$269 million and $221 million for 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.

Litigation - Union Carbide Corporation sued FPL and Florida Power Corporation
alleging that, through a territorial agreement approved by the FPSC, they
conspired to eliminate competition in violation of federal antitrust laws.
Praxair, Inc., an entity that was formerly a unit of Union Carbide, has been
substituted as the plaintiff. The suit seeks treble damages of an
unspecified amount based on alleged higher prices paid for electricity and
product sales lost. Cross motions for summary judgment were denied. Both
parties are appealing the denials.

A suit brought by the partners in a cogeneration project located in Dade
County, Florida, alleges that FPL has engaged in anti-competitive conduct
intended to eliminate competition from cogenerators generally, and from their
facility in particular, in violation of federal antitrust laws and have
wrongfully interfered with the cogeneration project's contractual
relationship with Metropolitan Dade County. The suit seeks damages in excess
of $100 million before trebling under antitrust law, plus other unspecified
compensatory and punitive damages. FPL's motion for summary judgment has
been denied.

FPL believes that it has meritorious defenses to all of the litigation
described above and is vigorously defending these suits. Accordingly, the
liabilities, if any, arising from this litigation are not anticipated to have
a material adverse effect on FPL's financial statements.

11. Transactions with Related Parties

FPL provides certain services to and receives services from FPL Group, or
other subsidiaries of FPL Group. The full cost of such services is charged
to the entity benefitting from the service. In addition, certain common
costs of FPL Group are allocated to all subsidiaries, including FPL, based
primarily on each subsidiary's equity. Neither current period amounts
charged or allocated, nor balances outstanding, were material for any year.
See Note 3 - Income Taxes.

The performance share awards shown above are payable at the end of the
four-year performance periods. The amount of the payout is determined by
multiplying the participant's target number of shares by his average level of
attainment, expressed as a percentage, which may not exceed 100%, of his
targeted awards under the Annual Incentive Plans for each of the years
encompassed by the award period. The incentive performance measures were
financial (weighted 50%), operating (weighted 30%) and major projects
(weighted 20%). The financial performance indicators were operations and
maintenance costs, capital expenditure levels, book and regulatory return on
equity and net income. The operating performance indicators were customer
satisfaction survey results, service reliability as measured by the frequency
and duration of service interruptions, system performance as measured by the
equivalent availability factors for the fossil and nuclear power plants,
unplanned trips of nuclear power plants, the NRC's systematic assessment of
licensee performance for the nuclear plants, employee staffing levels, number
of significant environmental violations and employee safety. The major
projects performance indicators were load management installed capability,
the adherence to schedules and budgets for the Lauderdale repowering project,
the Martin plant construction project, and customer information system
project, implementation of an integrated resource plan and conservation
programs annual installed capacity. If FPL Group shareholders approve the
Annual Incentive Plan and Long

Term Incentive Plan described in FPL Group's proxy statement for the 1994
Annual Meeting, future annual incentive payouts will be based on achieving
specific net income goals. Payouts under the current Long Term Incentive
Plan can range from zero to 100% of the target amount. Payouts under the
proposed new Long Term Incentive Plan can range from zero to 160%.

Retirement Plans

FPL Group maintains a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan and
supplemental executive retirement plans which cover FPL employees. The
following table shows the estimated annual benefits, calculated on a
straight-line annuity basis, payable upon retirement in 1993 at age 65 after
the indicated years of service.

The compensation covered by the plans includes annual salaries and bonuses of
officers of FPL Group and annual salaries of officers of FPL, as shown in the
Summary Compensation Table, but no other amounts shown in the Table. The
estimated credited years of service for the executive officers named in the
Summary Compensation Table are: Mr. Broadhead, 5 years; Mr. Frank, 3 years;
Mr. Goldberg, 4 years; Mr. Coyle, 4 years; and Mr. Woody, 37 years.

A supplemental retirement plan for Mr. Broadhead provides for a lump-sum
retirement benefit equal to the then present value of a joint and survivor
annuity providing annual payments to him equal to 61% to 65% of his average
annual compensation for the three years prior to his retirement between age
62 (1998) and age 65 (2001) and to his surviving beneficiary of 37.5% of such
average annual compensation, reduced by the then present value of the annual
amount of payments to which he is entitled under all other pension and
retirement plans of FPL Group and former employers. This benefit is further
reduced by the then value of 96,800 shares of restricted common stock which
vest as to 77,000 shares in 1998 and as to 19,800 shares in 2001. Upon a
change of control of FPL Group, (as defined below under Employment
Agreements), the restrictions on the restricted stock lapse and the full
retirement benefit becomes payable. Upon termination of Mr. Broadhead's
employment agreement (also described below) without cause, the restrictions
on the restricted stock lapse and he becomes fully vested under the
supplemental retirement plan. Absent any such change of control or
termination of employment, Mr. Broadhead will have no right to such shares of
restricted stock, and there will be no payments under the supplemental
retirement plan, unless he remains with the Corporation until at least age
62.

Mr. Goldberg's employment agreement with FPL provides for a retirement
benefit which, together with the amount received by him pursuant to his
former employer's deferred compensation program, equals the total
postretirement benefits he would have received if he had remained employed by
such employer until age 65. The terms of Mr. Frank's employment with FPL
provide for a benefit, upon retirement at age 62 or more, equal to the
difference between a pension benefit for 30 years of credited service and the
normal pension plan benefit. A supplemental retirement plan for Mr. Coyle
provides for benefits, upon retirement at age 62 or more, based on two times
his credited years of service.

FPL Group sponsors a split-dollar life insurance plan for certain of FPL and
FPL Group's senior officers. Benefits under the split-dollar plan are
provided by universal life insurance policies purchased by FPL Group. If the
officer dies prior to retirement, the officer's beneficiaries generally
receive two and one-half times the officer's annual salary at the time of
death. If the officer dies after retirement, the officer's beneficiaries
receive between 50% to 100% of the officer's final annual salary. Each
officer is taxable on the insurance carrier's one year term rate for his or
her life insurance coverage.

Employment Agreements

FPL Group has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Broadhead for an
initial term ending December 1997, with automatic one-year extensions
thereafter unless either party elects not to extend. The agreement provides
for a base salary of $795,800 plus annual and long-term incentive
compensation opportunities at least equal to those currently in effect. If
FPL Group terminates Mr. Broadhead's employment without cause, he is entitled
to receive a lump sum payment of two years' compensation. Compensation is
measured by the then current base salary plus the average of the preceding
two years' annual incentive awards. He would also be entitled to receive all
amounts accrued under all performance share grants in progress, prorated for
the year of termination and assuming achievement of the targeted award, and
to full vesting of his benefits under his supplemental retirement plan.

FPL Group and FPL have entered into employment agreements with certain
officers, including the individuals named in the Summary Compensation Table
(other than Mr. Goldberg), to become effective in the event of a change of
control of FPL Group, which is defined as the acquisition of beneficial
ownership of 20% of the voting power of FPL Group, certain changes in FPL
Group's Board, or approval by the shareholders of the liquidation of FPL
Group or of certain mergers or consolidations or of certain transfers of FPL
Group's assets. These agreements are intended to assure FPL of the continued
services of key officers. The agreements provide that each officer shall be
employed by FPL Group or one of its subsidiaries in his or her then current
position, with compensation and benefits at least equal to the then current
base and incentive compensation and benefit levels, for an employment period
of four, and in certain cases five, years after a change of control occurs.

In the event that the officer's employment is terminated (except for death,
disability or cause) or if the officer terminates his or her employment for
good reason, as defined in the agreement, the officer is entitled to
severance benefits in the form of a lump sum payment equal to the
compensation due for the remainder of the employment period or for two years,
whichever is longer. Such benefits would be based on the officer's then base
salary plus an annual bonus at least equal to the average bonus for the two
years preceding the change of control. The officer is also entitled to the
maximum amount payable under all long-term incentive compensation grants
outstanding, continued coverage under all employee benefit plans,
supplemental retirement benefits and reimbursement for any tax penalties
incurred as a result of the severance payments.

An employment agreement between Mr. Goldberg and FPL, which expires in 1994,
provides for a base salary of at least $350,000 per year, targeted annual
incentive compensation equal to 35% of his base salary, and either the
retirement benefit described above under Retirement Plans plus a death
benefit to his beneficiary equal to 300% of his base salary, payable over 6
years, or, if he dies before his contract expires, a death benefit to his
beneficiary equal to 550% of his base salary, payable over 10 years.

Director Compensation

All of the directors of FPL are salaried employees of FPL and do not receive
any additional compensation for serving as a director.
