Exhibit 10.24
WEC ENERGY GROUP, INC. 
TERMS and CONDITIONS GOVERNING
DIRECTOR RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD
EFFECTIVE JAN. 2016




WHEREAS, the Company believes it to be in the best interests of the Company, its subsidiaries and its stockholders for its directors to increase their stock ownership in the Company in order that they will thus have a greater incentive to direct the Company’s affairs in such a way that its shares may become more valuable; and
WHEREAS, the Director serves the Company or one of its subsidiaries as director (“Covered Service”);
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and the services to be performed by the Director, the Company grants this restricted stock award to the Director on the following terms and conditions.
		
	1.
	DEFINED TERMS


All capitalized terms used in this award and not otherwise defined herein are defined in the Plan.
		
	2.
	RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT


The Company grants to the Director a restricted stock award for the number shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) specified in the notice of grant.  
		
	3.
	VESTING OF GRANT


The restricted stock shall become vested upon the first to occur, if any, of the following events:
		
	(a)
	The Director’s completion of three year(s) of Covered Service following the date of grant.




		
	(b)
	The Director’s Covered Service ceases because of death or disability (which shall mean such illness or injury as renders the Director unable to perform Covered Service).




		
	(b)
	A Change of Control of the Company, as defined in paragraph 14 of the Plan, while the Director is in Covered Service.  




The period of time during which the shares covered by this restricted stock award are forfeitable is referred to as the “Restricted Period.”  If the Director’s Covered Service terminates during the Restricted Period before the shares have vested in accordance with the provisions of this award, such restricted stock shall be forfeited to the Company on the date of such termination, without any further obligation of the Company to the Director and all rights of the Director with respect to such restricted stock shall terminate; provided that the Committee may, in its discretion, vest the restricted stock upon the Director’s termination of Covered Service.
