Footnotes:
1. | In determining the CAP to our NEOs, the Company is required to make various adjustments to amounts that have been previously reported in the SCT in previous years, as the PvP rule’s valuation methods for this section differ from those required in the SCT . The tables below show the amounts that were deducted and added to SCT total compensation to calculate CAP. The large difference in SCT and CAP values for Mr. McAvoy in 2020 were partially driven by his retirement in December 2020, which caused prorated portions of his outstanding stock awards to be forfeited and reduced their CAP value for 2020 significantly, in addition to the large pension value differences between SCT and CA P amounts.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return [Text Block] |  | CAP vs. TSR As shown in the chart below, the PEO and other NEOs’ CAP amounts are directionally aligned with the Company’s TSR. The Company’s lower TSR in 2020 relative to the S&P 500 Utilities Index aligned with lower compensation actually paid for the PEO and NEOs, while stronger performance in subsequent years on an absolute basis, and relative to the performance of the S&P 500 Utilities Index, aligned with higher compensation actually paid. Relative TSR, which is identified in the Tabular List of Company Performance Metrics above, is an important financial performance measure used by the Company to link compensation to performance. It is a performance metric used in the Company’s long-term equity incentive awards, with a weighting of 50% for performance unit awards, which constitute the majority of equity-based compensation granted to the PEO and other NEOs. The relative TSR peer group used in the Company’s performance unit awards and the compensation peer group presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table are substantially similar . For further information regarding the Company’s relative TSR peer group, please refer to the “Competitive Positioning—Attraction and Retention” section of this Proxy Statement. |  |
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income [Text Block] |  | CAP vs. GAAP Net Income The Company’s GAAP Net Income performance has improved in each of the last two years, aligning directionally with higher compensation actually paid. |  |
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure [Text Block] |  | CAP vs. Company Selected Measure Low Adjusted EPS performance in 2020 aligned with lower compensation actually paid, while growth in the last two years aligns directionally with compensation actually paid at higher levels. |  |
