3 The TECO Brand Overview To protect and further establish the TECO mark, a comprehensive graphic identity program has been designed for usage on facility signage, vehicles, computer monitors and all printed materials. On the following pages are specific logotype treatments for TECO, TECO Energy, Tampa Electric, Peoples Gas, TECO Partners and TECO Services. Guidelines for use of colors must be strictly adhered to and reproduction of any of the logotypes must be done from master artwork provided by TECO s Corporate Communications Department. The logos may be enlarged or reduced, as appropriate to their application; however, the proportions may not be altered in any way nor may elements be moved or assigned different colors. Failure to abide by the guidelines may result in consumer confusion or erosion of the brand name. Any variation from the guidelines is prohibited without the approval of the Legal and Corporate Communications Departments. The company reserves the right to take appropriate action when the TECO name or logo is used without permission or when the name or logo has been adapted, modified or otherwise used inappropriately. Such action may include disciplinary action or termination and/or civil or criminal prosecution. The registered trademark symbol ( ) must always appear with the logo. It should be enlarged or reduced proportionally with the logo as shown in this guide. When the logo is enlarged to 16 inches wide or more or reduced to 4 inches wide or less, the should be resized to be no larger than 18 point and no smaller than 6 point, respectively. 2

4 The TECO Brand (continued from page 2) Use of the Corporate Logo The TECO logo and the approved variations for TECO Energy, Tampa Electric, Peoples Gas, TECO Partners and TECO Services are to be used only to identify the company s organization, products and activities. The TECO (umbrella) logo is to be used when representing Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas together. Improper use of the logos is as follows: The logo cannot be used in a manner that would imply sponsorship or endorsement of an outside company s product or services. The logo cannot be modified or distorted, and must be displayed in accordance with the company s logo guidelines. Exceptions: In some cases, employees may use the corporate logo to identify TECO or one of its subsidiaries in presentations, news releases, technical and trade articles and other published materials. Permission to do so must be obtained through TECO s Corporate Communications Department. A Note About Corporate Identity As TECO Energy and its subsidiaries conduct business, they are separate entities, and special care should be taken to use the appropriate logo for the specific business you are conducting. If you have a question about the appropriate logo, please your inquiry to logorequest@tecoenergy.com. Obtaining the Logo To obtain the appropriate logo for your application, please visit TECO s logos page at tecoenergy.com/logos. 3

5 TECO Logo Guidelines A family of TECO logos has been created to allow you to choose the one to fit your need. If you re unsure, please contact Corporate Communications. Umbrella Logo Umbrella Logo The TECO (umbrella) logo is to be used when representing Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas together. It should not be used to represent TECO Energy. Subsidiary Logos Each of the subsidiaries has its own identity which falls underneath the broader TECO brand. The logos to the right should be used for any communications developed for the listed subsidiaries. 4

6 Clear Space Clear space surrounding the logo is an integral part of its design. It is just as important as the font, the shape, and color of the logo. Keep the area around the logo clean and uncluttered. The clear space should be equal on all sides, where the unit of measure, X equals the height of the logotype TECO. Do not place any other trademark, logo, logotype, graphic, text, photograph or illustration in the minimum clear space area. X X X X Icon/Text Spacing The proper space between the icon and the text is determined by taking the width of the letter E from where Emera appears in the logo. Minimum Sizing The logo has been designed to reproduce well at small sizes, but will begin to degrade if reproduced too small. The logo should never appear smaller than 72 pixels wide when used online, or smaller than one inch wide when used in print. 72 px Online use 1 Offline use 5

7 What Not to Do These examples illustrate what not to do with the logo and logos of the subsidiary brands. X Do not alter the color of the logo. X Do not stretch or distort the logo.

16 The Icon The icon from the main identity can be used by itself. Please consider the following when using the icon. Proper Usage The icon can only be used if the main identity, in its entirety, is also present. There should always be a generious amount of clear space around the icon. The size of the top icon element is a good guide for how much space to allow around the logo. Images, text or other graphic elements should never intrude into this space. The icon should never be cropped so only part of the element is showing. 15
