	Participants	  	•	  	Employees will be selected to participate in the Supplemental Incentive Plan annually at the discretion of the CEO with the approval of the Compensation Committee.
			
		  	•	  	For purposes of the supplemental incentive, operating unit participants will be classified into two categories: Stock Eligible or Cash-only Eligible participants, at the discretion

	 Performance Measures and

		  	•	  	Fifty percent of a participant’s supplemental incentive value will be based on Modified Return on Asset (MROA) performance versus target.

expense (before consideration of intercompany interest income or expense, interest expense, and gains or losses on the sale of property and equipment). Total assets will be based on the quarterly average for the fiscal year excluding inter-company

		  	When performance falls between the designated points in the table, the incentive will be determined by interpolation.
		
		  	Discretionary Award
		
		  	The remaining fifty percent of the supplemental incentive will, in lieu of a discretionary component, be based on the following safety components:
			
		  		  	 •      TIIR ( Total Incident Injury Rate) – 37.5% (75% x 50%)

			
		  		  	 •      Safety Leadership – 12.5% (25% x 50%)

			
		  	•	  	Total Incident Injury Rate :
		
		  	Each Operating Unit has a “Total Incident Injury Rate” (“TIIR”) calculated for the prior year. Subject to each participant’s ethical behavior
and compliance with the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, this portion of the discretionary award will be based on improvements in TIIR performance. The baseline for measuring current year performance is the respective actual TIIR for the prior
year expressed as a percentage of hours worked.

		  	The following Bonus Eligibility Scale will be used to measure the amount of bonus earned as a result of improvement in the TIIR rate from the prior year to the current
year:

	   5%
	  	 	50	% 
	  7.5%
	  	 	75	% 
	  10%
	  	 	100	% 
	 Greater than 20%
	  	 	125	% 


  

							
				
		  		  	    •	  	When performance falls between the designated points in the table, the incentive will be determined by interpolation.
				
		  		  	    •	  	Regardless of the percentage decrease, if an operating unit has a TIIR less than the respective target identified below at the end of the current year, then a minimum of 100% of the
target bonus is earned, as the calculated reduction from the prior year could yield a higher percentage:
				
		  		  		  	 •    Electric Power Operating Unit – 2.50

				
		  		  		  	 •    Nat Gas & Pipeline Operating Unit – 2.25

				
		  		  		  	 •    Telecom Operating Unit – 1.75

				
		  		  	    •	  	Regardless of the percentage decrease, if an operating unit has a TIIR above 4.5; it is ineligible for this incentive component.
			
		  	•	  	Safety Leadership:
				
		  		  	    •	  	Specific measurable goals will be prepared for each operating unit management team. Incentives earned under this component of the Discretionary Award will be directly tied to

eligible for incentives in the current plan year.
		
	Clawback Provision	  	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any incentive based compensation, or any other compensation, paid or payable to any individual other than an executive
officer pursuant to this plan which, if payable to an executive officer, would be subject to recovery under any law, government regulation, order or stock exchange listing requirement, shall be, in the discretion of the Compensation Committee,
