Exhibit 10.2

PNM RESOURCES, INC.
2013 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
Introduction
•
The 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan” or the “2013 Plan”) provides
eligible officers of PNM Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) with the opportunity to
earn Performance Share Awards (70% of the total opportunity) and time-vested
Restricted Stock Rights Awards (30% of the total opportunity).

•
The number of Performance Shares earned by an officer for the Performance Period
(as described below) will depend on the officer’s position (e.g., CEO, EVP, SVP
or VP) and base salary and the Company’s level of attainment of a Relative TSR
Goal and an FFO/Debt Ratio Goal, as described below.

•
The number of time-vested Restricted Stock Rights granted to an officer at the
end of each Performance Period will depend on the officer’s position, the
officer’s base salary and the discretion of the Company’s Compensation and Human
Resources Committee (the “Committee”).

Performance Periods
•
The Performance Period began on January 1, 2013 and will end on December 31,
2015.

Performance Goals
•
The number of Performance Shares that an officer will receive for the
Performance Period will depend on the Company’s level of attainment of a
Relative TSR Goal and a FFO/Debt Ratio Goal.

•
These Goals and the corresponding Awards are described in the Performance Goal
Table (Attachment A).

Performance Share Award Opportunities
•
The Company’s level of attainment (Threshold, Target or Maximum) of the Relative
TSR and FFO/Debt Ratio Goals determines the level (Threshold, Target or Maximum)
of the officer’s Performance Share Awards.

•
An officer’s Performance Share Award opportunities also will vary depending on
the officer’s position and the officer’s base salary, all as determined in
accordance with the Performance Share Award Opportunity Table (Attachment B).

•
For purposes of determining the number of Performance Shares to which an officer
is entitled at any particular Award Level, the value of one Performance Share
shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company’s Stock on
the relevant Grant Date and the officer’s base salary shall equal the officer’s
base salary as of the first day of the Performance Period.

Time-Vested Restricted Stock Rights Award Opportunities
•
At the end of the Performance Period (generally between the next following
January 1 and March 15), the Committee will consider whether to grant
time-vested Restricted Stock Rights Awards to the participating officers.

        

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

•
If the Committee, with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors (the
“Board”), decides to make a time-vested Restricted Stock Rights Award to a
particular officer, it must adopt a written resolution to that effect. In the
resolution, the Committee will establish the Grant Date for the Awards.

•
An officer’s time-vested Restricted Stock Rights Award opportunity will vary
depending on the officer’s position and the officer’s base salary, all as
determined in accordance with the attached Time-Vested RSR Award Opportunity
Table (Attachment C). The Committee reserves the discretion to grant an Award
that is less than the opportunity set forth in the Table or to grant no
time-vested Restricted Stock Rights Award to a particular officer.

•
For purposes of determining the number of RSRs to which an officer will be
entitled, the value of one RSR shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of one
share of the Company’s Stock on the Grant Date specified in the Committee’s
resolution and the officer’s base salary shall equal the officer’s base salary
on the Grant Date.

Other Provisions
•
Only Company officers who have a salary grade of H18 or higher will receive
Awards.

•
All of the Awards will be made pursuant to the PNM Resources, Inc. Second
Amended and Restated Omnibus Performance Equity Plan (the “PEP”).

•
All of the Awards will be subject to the standard Terms and Conditions attached
hereto as Attachment D.

•
The Grant Date for the Performance Share Awards is March 6, 2013, (the first
trading day after expiration of the current black-out period, as determined in
accordance with the Company’s Equity Compensation Awards Policy).

•
A pro rated Performance Share Award will be provided to an officer who Separates
from Service in the second half of the Performance Period (in other words,
between July 1, 2014 and December 31, 2015) due to death, Disability, Retirement
or Impaction. A pro rated Award will not be paid to an officer who Separates
from Service for any of these reasons during the first half of the Performance
Period or to an officer who Separates from Service for any other reason prior to
the last day of the Performance Period.

•
The pro rated Award will be calculated at the end of the Performance Period
based on actual performance during the Performance Period. The proration will be
made based on the number of full months of service completed by the officer
during the Performance Period, using the proration rules described in Section
13.1(a)(iv)(2) of the PEP. The pro rated Award then will be paid at the same
time as Awards are paid to other participants in the Plan.

•
If an individual becomes an officer during a Performance Period, the Committee
may grant a pro rata Award to the new officer on such terms and conditions as
the Committee deems to be appropriate.

•
All Performance Share Awards payable to officers who are Covered Employees for
the Company’s tax year that coincides with the end of the Performance Period are
intended to qualify as Performance-Based Awards granted pursuant to Section 12
of the PEP. As a result, all such Awards are subject to the requirements of
Section 12 of the PEP.

Goal
Threshold Level1
Target Level
Maximum Level2
Relative TSR3

If the Company’s Relative TSR for the Performance Period places it in the
Threshold, Target or Maximum Level range shown to the right, the Officer will be
entitled to receive 60% of the Threshold, Target or Maximum Award as determined
in accordance with the Award Opportunity Table.
Greater than the 35th percentile but not greater than the 50th percentile.
Greater than the 50th percentile but not greater than the 95th percentile.
Greater than the 95th percentile.
FFO/Debt Ratio4

If the Company’s FFO/Debt Ratio on the last day of the Performance Period places
it in the Threshold, Target or Maximum Level range for the Performance Period,
the officer will be entitled to receive 40% of the Threshold, Target or Maximum
Award as determined in accordance with the Award Opportunity Table.
At least 17.3% but less than 17.8%
At least 17.8% but less than 19.8%

At least 19.8%

______________________________________  
1 If the Company's Relative TSR or FFO/Debt Ratio falls between two Award levels
(e.g., the Threshold Level and the Target Level shown in the Performance Goal
Table), the number of Performance Shares to which an Officer is entitled will be
interpolated between the two Award levels in accordance with uniform procedures
prescribed by the Committee.
2 In no event will an Officer receive more than the Maximum Award for an Officer
of his or her level as listed in the Award Opportunity Table.
3 The “Relative TSR” Goal refers to the Company's “Total Shareholder Return” for
the Performance Period (expressed as a percentage of the “Beginning Stock
Price,” as defined below) as compared to the “Total Shareholder Return” of the
other utilities included in the S & P 400 Mid-Cap Utility Index. For this
purpose, the Total Shareholder Return of the Company and the other utilities
included in the Index will be determined by adding any dividends paid by the
Company (or such other utilities) to the appreciation in the value of the
Company's Stock (or the other utilities' common stock). The appreciation shall
be measured by comparing the “Beginning Stock Price” and “Ending Stock Price.”
The “Beginning Stock Price” is the average closing price of the Company's Stock
(or the common stock of the other utilities) on the 20 trading days immediately
preceding the first day of the Performance Period. The “Ending Stock Price” is
the average closing price of the Company's Stock (or the common stock of the
other utilities) on the last 20 trading days of the Performance Period.
4 Equals PNMR's funds from operations for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2015, divided by PNMR's total debt outstanding (including any long-term leases
and unfunded pension plan obligations) as of December 31, 2015.  Funds from
operations are equal to the amount of PNMR's net cash flow from operating
activities (as reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows) as
reported in the Company's Form 10-K for PNM Resources adjusted by the following
items:  (1) adding amounts received by PNMR as principal payments on the Palo
Verde lessor notes, (2) including amounts attributable to principal payments on
imputed debt from long-term leases, (3) excluding changes in PNMR's working
capital, including bad debt expense, (4) excluding the impacts of the Valencia
Energy Facility consolidation, (5) subtracting the amount of capitalized
interest, and (6) excluding any contributions to the PNM or TNMP qualified
pension plans.  The calculation is consistent with Moody's calculation of
FFO/Debt.
