(1)   The options reflected in the table (which are nonstatutory stock options
for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code) were granted on February 16, 1999
and vest one-third each year beginning February 16, 2000.

(2)   Amounts in this column were calculated using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model.  The model assumes:  (a) an option term of 10 years and an
average life of 5.64 years; (b) a risk-free interest rate of 4.66%; (c)
volatility (variance of rate of return) of 19.27%; and (d) a dividend yield of
4.5%.  The actual value, if any, that an optionee may realize upon exercise
will depend upon the excess of the price of the Common Stock over the option
exercise price on the date that the option is exercised.  There is no
assurance that the value received by the optionee will be at or near the value
estimated by the Black-Scholes model. The following tabulation sets forth
information regarding the exercise of stock options during 1999 and the
unexercised options held at December 31, 1999, by each of the executive
officers named in the Summary Compensation Table.

Pension and Retirement Plans
----------------------------
   The Company and its subsidiaries maintain pension and retirement plans in
which the executive officers and other employees participate.  The Company and
its subsidiaries also maintain supplemental retirement plans for officers and
certain other employees to reflect certain compensation that is excluded under
the retirement plans and to provide benefits that otherwise would have been
accrued or payable except for the limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue
Code.

   Effective January 1, 1998, the basic pension plan was amended to restate
the benefit accrual using a "cash balance" formula.  Under a cash balance
pension plan, a participant's benefit is based on an annual accrual of a
percentage of current year's compensation, with such annual accruals being
combined and adjusted by an earnings factor.  The actual pension benefit is
then determined by converting such lump sum balance into an equivalent annuity
value.

   The Company's cash balance formula provides an annual accrual of 6% of
salary and bonus, with a guaranteed earnings rate of 4%.  In its discretion,
the Company may amend the plan from year to year to grant a higher earnings
rate for the applicable year.  In order to recognize the pre-1998 service and
compensation of participants as of January 1, 1998, the plan grants each such
participant a special transition credit.  In addition, in order to protect
such existing participants, the revised pension plan guarantees that for
employment through December 31, 2007, the benefit accrual will not be less
under the new cash balance formula than under the pre-1998 final average
earnings formula.

   The plan's actuaries project that for most long-service employees the
revised cash balance formula will provide substantially equivalent benefits
commencing at age 65 as under the pre-1998 "final average earnings" formula.
The plan's actuaries have projected the ultimate benefits for the named
executive officers.  Such projection is subject to the applicable earnings
rate that is applied from time to time to the cash balance account and to
future interest rates.  Because of the ten-year guarantee until the end of
2007, the actuaries project that the pre-1998 final average earnings formula
will provide the better benefit for Messrs. Wardeberg and Donnelly and the
revised cash balance formula will provide the better benefit for Messrs.
Schrader, Wenzler and Haase.

The following tabulation sets forth estimated annual retirement benefits
payable under the pension plans, as supplemented, for Messrs. Wardeberg and
Donnelly.  It is based on the final average earnings formula for the indicated
levels of final average earnings with various periods of credited service.
Benefits reflected in the table are based on a straight life annuity and an
assumed age of 65.  The election of other available payment options would
change the retirement benefits shown in the table. The plan does not provide
for reduction of retirement benefits to offset Social Security or any other
retirement benefits.

   For Messrs. Schrader, Wenzler and Haase, using a 4% earnings assumption for
the cash balance formula and assuming continuation of compensation as defined
in the plan at the level paid in 1999, the actuaries project estimated annual
benefits under the pension plan, as supplemented, payable upon retirement at
normal retirement age of 65 of $299,000, $251,000 and $28,000, respectively.

   The compensation covered by the pension plan, as supplemented, for the
named executive officers includes all compensation reported for each
individual as salary and bonus in the Summary Compensation Table.  Messrs.
Wardeberg, Schrader, Donnelly, Wenzler and Haase have 10, 21, 12, 25 and 2
years, respectively, of credited service under the pension plan. Pursuant to a
supplemental retirement plan, Mr. Schrader will receive a supplemental
retirement benefit of $25,000 per year for 15 years beginning at age 65,
payable in monthly installments.

   A retired executive officer (other than Mr. Haase) who is married at the
time of retirement and selects one of the available joint and surviving spouse
annuity payment options will also receive the difference between the monthly
benefits payable under the single life annuity payment option and the 50%
joint and surviving spouse annuity payment option for the lives of the retired
officer and spouse.  Upon the death of the retired officer, the surviving
spouse will receive 50% of the supplemental benefit for life.

   The Company has entered into an executive trust agreement with Marshall &
Ilsley Trust Company to provide a means of segregating assets for the payment
of these benefits (as well as benefits under the Company's supplemental
retirement plans), subject to the claims of the Company's creditors. Such
trust is only nominally funded until the occurrence of a potential change of
control.

Compensation of Directors
-------------------------
   The Company's director compensation program is designed to provide
compensation at a competitive level and tie a substantial portion of the
directors' compensation to the performance of the Company's stock.  Only non-
employee directors receive compensation for service as directors.

   Cash Compensation.  The Company pays its directors the following cash
compensation: an annual retainer fee of $6,000, $600 for each Board meeting
they attend and $1,000 for each Board committee meeting they attend.
Committee chairmen are paid an additional annual retainer fee of $1,000 and
receive meeting fees for meetings with the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company relating to committee business.  Wisconsin Gas pays its non-employee
directors an annual cash retainer fee of $4,000, and $600 for each Board
meeting they attend.  Presently, all directors of Wisconsin Gas are also
directors of the Company.  Any fees payable to directors in cash may, at the
option of each individual director, be deferred for future payment as
discussed below.

   Deferred Compensation.  The Company and Wisconsin Gas have identical
deferred stock plans for directors.  Under the deferred stock plans, each
director receives on January 1 of each year, 1,114 deferred stock units (668
from the Company and 446 from Wisconsin Gas). Each stock unit has an economic
value equivalent to a share of Common Stock.  As of December 31, 1999, these
deferred stock units had a value of $32,515 based on the price of a share of
Common Stock on that date ($29.1875). Each deferred stock unit is credited
with an amount equal to the dividend paid on a share of Common Stock if and
when such dividends are declared and paid.  Such dividend-equivalent amounts
will be converted into deferred stock units based on the per-share price on
the dividend payment date.  When a director retires, leaves the Board or dies,
the director's account balance will be paid out in shares of Common Stock.
The Company (for itself and on behalf of Wisconsin Gas) intends to purchase
Common Stock on the open market from time to time in its discretion to
accumulate shares of Common Stock to be used for settlement of deferred stock
balances.  However, neither the Company nor Wisconsin Gas intends to fund its
future payment obligations under its deferred stock plan.

   The Company and Wisconsin Gas have identical deferred compensation plans
for directors which entitle a director to defer directors' fees otherwise
payable in cash for payment when the director ceases to be a director.  Fees
may be deferred for settlement in cash or shares of Common Stock, at the
election of the director. Amounts deferred for settlement in cash accrue
interest at the prevailing announced prime interest rate of a major commercial
bank.  Amounts deferred for settlement in Common Stock are converted into
deferred stock units based on the per-share price on the date of deferral.
Each deferred stock unit will be credited with an amount equal to the dividend
paid on a share of Common Stock if and when such dividends are declared and
paid.  Each director may elect to receive payment of the director's deferred
account balance in a lump sum or in equal installments over ten years.

   All amounts deferred are unsecured.  The Company has entered into an
executive trust agreement with Marshall & Ilsley Trust Company to provide a
means of segregating assets for the payment of director deferred compensation,
subject to the claims of the Company's creditors.  Such trust is only
nominally funded until the occurrence of a potential change of control.


<PAGE>
<PAGE>  12
   Stock Options.  Directors participate in the 1992 Director Stock Option
Plan, pursuant to which options to purchase 4,000 shares of Common Stock are
automatically granted annually on the fourth Tuesday in February to each non-
employee director.  The exercise price per share for options granted under the
1992 Director Stock Option Plan is equal to the fair market value of a share
of Common Stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the 1992 Director
Stock Option Plan are immediately exercisable and have a ten-year term;
provided, however, that no option may be exercised after 24 months have
elapsed from the date the optionee ceased being a director. On February 23,
1999, Messrs. Bueche, Davis, McGaffey, McKeithan and Osborn, and Ms. Whitelaw
each received an option to purchase 4,000 shares of Common Stock at a per-
share exercise price of $19.94.   On February 22, 2000, each of those
directors received an option to purchase 4,000 shares of Common Stock at a
per-share exercise price of $29.625.

Agreements With Certain Executive Officers
------------------------------------------
   The Company has agreements with Messrs. Wardeberg, Schrader, Donnelly,
Wenzler and Haase that provide that each such executive officer is entitled to
benefits if, following a change of control (as such term is defined in the
agreements), the officer's employment is ended through (i) termination by the
Company, other than by reason of death or disability or for cause (as defined
in the agreements), or (ii) termination by the officer following the first
anniversary of the change in control or due to a breach of the agreement by
the Company or a significant change in the officer's responsibilities.  In
general, the benefits provided are:  (i) a cash termination payment of up to
three times the sum of the executive officer's annual salary and his highest
annual bonus during the three years before the termination, (ii) supplemental
pension benefits,(iii) continuation of equivalent hospital, medical, dental,
accident, disability and life insurance coverage as in effect at the time of
termination, and (iv) outplacement services.  The agreements also provide the
foregoing benefits in connection with certain terminations that are effected
in anticipation of a change of control.  Each agreement provides that if any
portion of the benefits under the agreement or under any other agreement for
the officer would constitute an "excess parachute payment" for purposes of the
Internal Revenue Code, benefits will be reduced so that the officer will be
entitled to receive $1 less than the maximum amount which he could receive
without becoming subject to the 20% excise tax imposed by the Code, or which
the Company may pay without loss of deduction under the Code.

(1)  Except as otherwise noted in the footnotes to the table, each beneficial
owner exercises sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares
shown as owned beneficially.

(2)  Includes the following numbers of shares covered under options
exercisable as of or within 60 days of March 31, 2000:  Mr. Donnelly, 186,300;
Mr. Haase, 90,000; Mr. Schrader, 185,650; Mr. Wardeberg, 273,333; Mr. Wenzler,
144,300; Messrs. Bueche, Davis, McGaffey, McKeithan and Osborn, and Ms.
Whitelaw, 32,000 each; and all directors and executive officers as a group,
1,154,677.

(3)  Includes the following numbers of shares of restricted stock over which
the holders have sole voting but no investment power:  Mr. Donnelly, 8,863;
Mr. Schrader, 11,818; Mr. Wardeberg, 21,273; and Mr. Wenzler, 8,863; and all
directors and executive officers as a group, 55,527.  The restricted stock
vests three years after grant if the Company's total return to shareholders
for the three-year period exceeds a pre-established goal. However, reflecting
the fact that Mr. Wardeberg is approaching retirement, he will receive a
percentage of the shares granted in 1998 and 1999 that otherwise would vest at
the end of the three-year period equal to 1/36 for each month he remains
employed beginning January 1, 1998 and 1999, respectively.  Any restricted
shares from the 1998 and 1999 grants that are not vested at the time of his
retirement will be forfeited.

(4)  Where no percentage figure is set out in this column, the person owns
less than 1% of the outstanding shares.

(5)  Deferred stock units are issued under the deferred stock plans and the
deferred compensation plan discussed under "Compensation of Directors -
Deferred Compensation".

(6)  Includes 8,400 shares owned jointly by Mr. Wardeberg and his spouse.

(7)  Includes 1,052 shares owned by Mr. Wenzler's spouse.
