PUBLIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE GROUP INCORPORATED
2007 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN FOR OUTSIDE DIRECTORS
Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2019


I.    PURPOSE


The purpose of this Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated 2007 Equity Compensation Plan for Outside Directors (“Plan”) is to advance the interests of the Company                and its stockholders by assisting the Company in attracting and retaining individuals of superior talent, ability and achievement to serve on its Board of Directors. 


It is intended that the Plan will be interpreted and administered to prevent taxation under Section 409A of the Code. Any provision of or amendment to this Plan that would cause any        amount to be taxable under Section 409A with respect to any individual is void and without              effect. Any election by any Partici-pant, and any administrative action by the Committee that        would cause any amount to be taxable under Section 409A with respect to any individual is void and without effect under the Plan. In the event that a Participant fails to make a Section 409A-compliant payment election, the Plan’s default payment provisions, as set forth in Subsection              V.G and Article VIII, shall apply. It is further intended that the Plan will be amended in              accordance with present and future guidance issued by the Treasury Department under Section       885 of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.

III.    SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN


200,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved to satisfy awards of Stock Units pursuant    to the terms of this Plan. Such shares may be acquired directly from the Company or, at the       discretion of the Company, purchased on the open market by the Company or its agent. 


IV.     STOCK UNIT AWARDS


		
	A.
	Upon the commencement of each Year of Service as a member of the Board, each Outside Director shall be granted an award of Stock Units in an amount as shall        










3



be established from time to time by the Board of Directors. The date of grant shall be the first business day of May. With respect to an Outside Director first elected   as a director after May 1 of any year, the date of such Outside Director’s initial      award grant under this Plan shall be the first business day of the month next     following the Outside Director’s initial election as a member of the Board.


		
	B.
	The number of Stock Units to be awarded on any particular date of grant shall be equal to the amount of the award grant (expressed in dollars) divided by the            closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on the date of grant as provided in Section IV.A, rounded up to the next whole share. 




		
	C.
	If a Participant fails to complete the Year of Service with respect to which a Stock Unit Award has been granted, other than on account of Disability or death, such Stock Unit Award and any earnings thereon shall be prorated to reflect the portion of the Year of Service actually served by the Participant. 




		
	D.
	No stock certificates shall be issued in connection with any Stock Unit Award and the Stock Unit Awards shall be evidenced by a bookkeeping account in the name    of the Participant maintained by the Company. The Company shall not be             required to segregate any amounts credited to these Stock Unit Award accounts, which shall be established merely as an accounting convenience. Amounts         credited to the Stock Unit Award accounts shall at all times remain solely the     property of the Company subject to the claims of its general creditors. Stock Unit Award accounts shall be credited with dividend equivalents at a rate equal to such dividends as may be declared by the Company on the Common Stock. Such    dividends equivalents shall be deemed invested as additional Stock Units at a           share price equal to closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on the date the transaction is credited. 


 
		
	E.
	Until distribution of shares of Common Stock from the Plan, neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer,              pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate,        alienate or convey the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof,         which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment,          be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony, property settlement or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, or be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency. 


 
Provided, however, that, in the event that a domestic relations order of any State       is received by the Plan and thereafter determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) within the meaning of Code section 414(p) and Code section 414(p) provides that Stock Unit awards are covered thereunder, the            portion of the Account of the Participant to which such QDRO is directed shall be apportioned as specified in such QDRO, valued as of the business day preceding   








4



the date specified in such QDRO.  Upon notice to the Committee that a QDRO is being sought with respect to a Participant’s Account, no distribution shall be              made to a Participant until such time as the status of the QDRO is determined.               The alternate payee of the Participant’s Account shall thereafter participate in the Plan in accordance with its terms, except such person shall not have the rights or benefits provided in Subsection IV.A If a QDRO is issued and the amount             awarded the alternate payee exceeds the value of the Participant’s Account, the amount apportioned shall be limited to the amount then in the account.  If a               QDRO so provides, benefits may be paid to an alternate payee before they would otherwise be distributable under the Plan, and no such distribution to an alternate payee shall be treated as a distribution to the Participant for purposes of Article V.
 
		
	F. 
	No Participant shall have any of the rights of a stockholder (including the right to vote and to receive dividends and other distributions (except as set forth in              Section IV (D) and (G)) with respect to Stock Units unless and until shares of Common Stock are actually issued in his/her name. 




		
	G.
	In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to shareholders, or any other change affecting the Common Stock, such adjustments, if any, as are appropriate to reflect such              change shall be made with respect to outstanding Stock Unit Awards.




		
	H. 
	Upon a Change in Control of the Company all outstanding Stock Unit Awards            shall be considered as having met the requirements of Section IV.C. For the        purposes of this Plan, “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of           the following events:




		
	a)
	any “person” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act is or becomes the beneficial owner within the meaning of Rule 13d‐3 under the Exchange Act (a “Beneficial Owner”), directly or indirectly, of       securities of the Company (not including in the securities beneficially      owned by such person any securities acquired directly from the Company   or its affiliates) representing 25% or more of the combined voting power       of the Company’s then outstanding securities, excluding any person who becomes such a Beneficial Owner in connection with a transaction        described in clause (1) of paragraph (c) below; or


 
		
	b)
	the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a majority of     the number of directors then serving: individuals who, on December 15, 1998, constitute the Board of Directors and any new director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual    or threatened election contest, including but not limited to a consent solicitation. relating to the election of directors of the Company) whose appointment or election by the Board of Directors or nomination for       election by the Company’s stockholders was approved or recommended          










5



by a vote of at least two‐thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors on April 17, 2007 or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved or recommended: or


		
	c)
	there is consummated a merger or consolidation of the Company or any     direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company with any other corporation other than (1) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to           such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof), in combination with the ownership of any    trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit           plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, at least 75% of           the combined voting power of the securities of the Company or such   surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (2) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in   which no person is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or            indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; or

	C.
	By written notice to the Plan filed with the Company’s Secretary, a Participant            may elect to receive the distribution of his/her Stock Unit Award account in the           form of (1) one lump‐sum payment, or (2) annual distributions over a period      selected by the Participant of up to ten years.

(a)        such distributions are made between 12 and 24 months following the termination of the Plan, and the Company does not adopt a new plan which would be           aggregated with this Plan under IRS guidance under Code Section 409A at any         time within the five years following the Plan termination.  
(b)        the Plan is terminated within the 30 days preceding or the 12 months following a  Change in Control, all payments are made within 12 months of the date of termination, and all substantially similar arrangements sponsored by the Company are terminated as well.
(c)        the Plan is terminated within 12 months of a corporate dissolution, as defined in    IRS guidance under Code Section 409A, and lump sum payments are made in the latest of (i) the year of the termination, (ii) the year in which amounts are no               longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or (iii) the first year in which      payment is administratively practicable.


The termination of the Plan shall not adversely affect any Participant or Beneficiary who has      become entitled to the payment of any benefits under the Plan as of the date of termination.
.
IX.    NOT A CONTRACT FOR CONTINUED SERVICE


Nothing contained in the Plan or in any stock unit agreement executed pursuant hereto        shall be deemed to confer upon any Outside Director to whom Stock Unit Awards are or may be awarded hereunder any right to remain a member of the Board or in any way limit the right of            the Board or the Stockholders to terminate or fail to renominate or reelect any such Outside         Director as a member of the Board.
