5.1.8 For the avoidance of doubt, none of the provisions in this Section 5.1 shall be deemed to preclude your service, in and of itself, as a member of the Board of Directors of AEGIS Insurance Services, Inc. or any role for which you have been hired, retained, elected or appointed in federal, state, or local government.

5.2 Cooperation. The parties agree that certain matters in which you have or may have been involved during your employment may necessitate your cooperation in the future. Accordingly, as a further condition to your receipt and retention of the benefits provided in Section 2, to the extent reasonably requested by the Company Group, you will cooperate with the Company Group in connection with matters arising out of your service to the Company Group (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, adversarial matters between you and any member of the Company Group); provided, however, that the Company Group will make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption of your other activities. In addition, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject to the restrictions and limitations of this Section 5.2, during the three-year period after the Retirement Date, you will use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Company Group and its counsel with respect to any (x) internal or external investigation with respect to matters arising out of your service to the Company Group and (y) administrative, regulatory, law enforcement, judicial, legislative or other proceedings (including investigations or any other sort of inquiry) related to matters arising out of your service to the Company Group. Your duty of cooperation includes your (i) making yourself reasonably available to the Company Group, its counsel and any third party investigators retained by the Company Group for interviews and factual investigations, (ii) between the Effective Date and the Retirement Date, providing prompt access to the Company Group, its counsel and any third party investigators retained by the Company Group to materials, documents and hardware (including Company-provided phones and laptops) in your possession, (iii) appearing at the Company Group’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, (iv) reasonably cooperating at the Company Group’s request with interview or document requests from governmental authorities, (v) providing reasonably prompt access to information and documents within your possession or under your control needed by the Company Group to respond to any request for information and documents from any governmental authority, and (vi) providing assistance in response to any request by the Company Group in defense of any claims that may be made against the Company Group related to matters arising out of your service to the Company Group. You will also reasonably assist the Company Group as requested in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by the Company Group against any third party other than yourself, to the extent that such claims may relate to the period of your employment with the Company Group. The Company Group will reimburse you for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by you in connection with such cooperation, as well as Reasonable Legal Fees in connection with such cooperation. “Reasonable Legal Fees” means attorneys’ fees for a reasonable number of hours that you incur for reasonably necessary representation by a single law firm of your choosing (billed at such law firm’s standard hourly rates multiplied by the discount rate, expressed as a percentage, ascribed to law firms serving as preferred legal providers to the Company at the time such services are provided).

5.3 Repayment; Forfeiture; Clawback.

5.3.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if you fail to comply in any material respect with the obligations of Section 5.2 on one or more occasions following notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure (to the extent such failure is capable of cure), you will be required to repay all amounts, less $1,000, set forth in Section 2.1 that have previously been paid to you. In addition, if a court of competent jurisdiction finds that you have violated (and not having promptly cured if such violation is capable of cure) any of your obligations set forth in Section 5.1, you will be required to repay all amounts, less $1,000, set forth in Section 2 that have previously been paid to you and any equity or equity based award which vests after the date hereof shall be forfeited and to the extent that you have sold or realized any net gain on such award you shall be required to disgorge and repay the amount of such net gain to the Company and you will immediately forfeit all rights to the amounts provided in Section 2 that have not yet been paid to you. The repayment and forfeiture provisions of this Section 5.3 will be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedies available to the Company Group at law or in equity. In addition, any portion, up to and including the full

amounts, paid to you pursuant to Section 2 will be repaid by you to the Company Group if and to the extent that such amounts paid to you are required to be repaid pursuant to any law, rule or regulation.

5.3.2 You expressly acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a Specified Event (as defined below) then you shall forfeit any right to any of the benefits set forth in Section 2.1 and 2.2 of this Agreement and you shall promptly (and within 10 days following written demand by the Company) repay or return to the Company all of such benefits (including all payments and equity (or equity acceleration or additional vesting) received pursuant to Section 2 or provided to you pursuant to Section 2 prior to such date (and the unvested portion of any equity awards outstanding as of the Retirement Date shall be cancelled). To the extent that you have sold or realized any net gain on any award required to be repaid or returned pursuant to the foregoing sentence, you shall be required, at the Company’s request, to disgorge and repay the amount of such net gain to the Company. “Specified Event” means (i) your conviction of a felony in violation of state or federal laws, or your plea of guilty or nolo contendere to any such felony, in each case based on any actions or omissions in which you engaged during your employment with the Company Group or for which you were responsible during your employment; (ii) your admission to facts that would constitute a felony in violation of state or federal laws in connection with a deferred prosecution agreement, non-prosecution agreement, or other similar agreement based on any actions or omissions, during your tenure as President and Chief Executive Officer of FPL; or (iii) the conviction of a felony in violation of state or federal laws, or the admission to facts that would constitute a felony in violation of state or federal laws in connection with a deferred prosecution agreement, non-prosecution agreement, or other similar agreement, by any member of the Company Group that is an entity (i.e., excluding employees that are deemed to be affiliates) based on any actions or omissions, during your tenure as President and Chief Executive Officer of FPL, (x) in which you participated, (y) of which you had actual knowledge, or (z) of which you recklessly or willfully failed to have actual knowledge.

5.4 Exceptions. Please note that you will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of the Company Group’s trade secrets that:

(A) Is made

a. In confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly or to an attorney; and

b. Solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or

(B) Is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

Nothing in this Agreement prohibits you from reporting possible violations of law to a governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, cooperating with such agency, or taking other actions protected under federal or state whistleblower law (including receiving a whistleblower award), in each case without prior notice to or authorization from the Company Group.

5.5 Reformation of Protective Covenants. If any Protective Covenant under Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be enforceable only if modified, the court is expressly authorized to modify, and the parties wish that the court would so modify, the Protective Covenants (instead of severing such otherwise unenforceable provision from this Agreement in its entirety) to such extent and in such manner as it deems warranted to carry out the intent of the Protective Covenants to the maximum extent permitted by law. If any Protective Covenant is ultimately held to be unenforceable and thus stricken in its entirety notwithstanding the desire of the parties as set forth above, any such event shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the Protective Covenants, the balance of which will continue to be binding upon the Company Group and you.

6.Communications Pertaining to this Agreement. You will not, without the prior written approval of the Company, issue any public statements with respect to this Agreement, or otherwise publicize this Agreement, including statements on any website or respond to any inquiries regarding this Agreement by the media. The Company will not, without your prior written approval, issue any press releases with respect to this Agreement unless otherwise required by law, rule or regulation (including NYSE rules), in which event the Company will use reasonable efforts to provide you with an advance draft of such press release and consider, in its sole and absolute discretion, any of your comments, time permitting.

7.Indemnification and Advancement. You remain eligible to receive indemnification and advancement of legal fees pursuant to and to the fullest extent permitted by the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”), as in effect on the date hereof; provided that you shall only be advanced and indemnified for Reasonable Legal Fees. Nothing in this Section 7 constitutes an admission of liability or wrongdoing of any kind by you, the Company, or any member of the Company Group.

8.Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. The parties intend to comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”). All payments under this Agreement are intended to either be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A. All payments made under this Agreement shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties expressly understand that the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted to avoid the imputation of any additional tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A and to preserve (to the nearest extent reasonably possible) the intended benefits payable to you hereunder. If any payment or benefit provided to you in connection with your “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, then such payment or benefit will not be paid until the first payroll date to occur following the six-month anniversary of your Retirement Date (the “Specified Employee Payment Date”). The aggregate of any payments that would otherwise have been paid before the Specified Employee Payment Date will be paid to you in a lump sum on the Specified Employee Payment Date and thereafter, any remaining payments will be paid without delay in accordance with their original schedule. Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment of compensation for purposes of Section 409A. Any reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement that are subject to Section 409A shall be made or provided in accordance

with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the period of time specified in the Agreement, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not make any deductions for money or property that you owe to the Company, offset or otherwise reduce any sums that may be due or become payable to or for the account of you with respect to any arrangements other than pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, from amounts that constitute deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A and except as required by law. Your right to any deferred compensation, as defined under Section 409A, shall not be subject to borrowing, anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors, to the extent necessary to avoid additional tax, penalties and/or interest under Section 409A. Nothing herein, including the foregoing sentence, shall change the Company’s rights and/or remedies under the Agreement and/or applicable law. In no event shall the Company Group be liable for any penalties, costs, damages, levies or taxes imposed on you pursuant to Section 409A.

9.Miscellaneous Provisions.

9.1 Taxes. The Company Group may withhold from any and all amounts payable under this Agreement or otherwise such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

9.2 Severability. If any provisions in this Agreement are held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless continue in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way.

9.3 Jurisdiction: Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida and in all respects shall be interpreted, enforced, and governed under the laws of this State, without regard to any conflict of law. Any dispute over this Agreement shall be resolved by a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction, in Palm Beach County, Florida.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING, LITIGATION OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SUCH WAIVER IS KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND INTENTIONAL.

9.4 Second Release. On or within twenty one days following the Retirement Date, as a further condition to the receipt and retention of the Retirement Benefits you agree that you will execute and deliver a second release and waiver of claims, which will be in the same form as the release of claims set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement (except that the release of claims will be through and as of the Retirement Date and will become final and binding upon the expiration of the seven day revocation period after the Retirement Date, such date, the “Final Release Date”). For the avoidance of doubt, if you do not deliver the second release and waiver of claims by the Final Release Date or revoke such release and waiver of claims by the Final Release Date, then you shall not receive the Retirement Benefits and to the extent that you have already received such Retirement Benefits, you will promptly repay such amounts to the Company

9.5 Entire Agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement sets forth all the promises and agreements between them and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements or conditions, expressed or implied, oral or written. All references in this Agreement to the phrase “including “shall deemed to mean “including, without limitation,” unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
