governance refers to the internal policies and practices by which the Company is
operated and controlled on behalf of its shareholders. Sound corporate
governance starts with a strong, independent Board that is accountable to the
Company and its shareholders. The role of the Board is to effectively govern the
affairs of the Company for the benefit of its shareholders and, to the extent
appropriate under Minnesota law, other constituencies, including the Company&#8217;s
employees, customers, suppliers, and the communities in which ALLETE does
business. The Company views good corporate governance as a source of competitive
advantage, because the Company&#8217;s ultimate goal is to best focus and direct its
resources.</font></div>

the Board and its committees reviewed and enhanced established corporate
governance practices. This ensures that the Board and its committees have the
necessary authority and practices in place to review and evaluate the Company&#8217;s
business operations, as needed, and to make decisions that are independent of
the Company&#8217;s management. For example, the Board and its committees undertake an
annual self-evaluation process, and non-management directors meet regularly,
have direct access to and meet individually with members of management, and
retain their own advisors as they deem appropriate.</font></div>

effort to further develop the Board, directors are asked to attend an
independent educational seminar at least once every two years and to share their
experiences and observations with the other directors. The majority of our
directors have fulfilled this educational commitment. In addition to seminars,
Board members attended educational presentations hosted by the Company during
2009 addressing emissions allowances and their markets, and operations at

this Proxy Statement is a proposal to amend the Company&#8217;s Articles to change the
vote required for the election of directors and to make a corresponding change
to the Bylaws. Under our current Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation
(Articles) and Bylaws, directors are elected annually by our shareholders by a
majority vote of all of the outstanding Company stock entitled to vote. At the
Annual Meeting we are proposing an amendment to our Articles to adopt &#8220;simple&#8221;
majority voting for the election of directors, which is the requirement adopted
by many other publicly traded corporations in recent years in uncontested
elections (where the number of nominees does not exceed the number of directors
to be elected); and plurality voting for the election of directors in contested
elections (where the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be
elected)(the Articles Amendment). </font></div>

address a &#8220;holdover&#8221; provision in Minnesota corporate law that allows a director
who has not been re-elected to remain in office until a successor is elected and
qualified, in January 2010 the Board approved amending the Corporate Governance
Guidelines to include a director resignation policy, subject to the
shareholders' approval of Item 3. Under the new guideline, any nominee for
director who receives more votes &#8220;against&#8221; his or her election than votes &#8220;for&#8221;
his or her election in an uncontested election will be required to promptly
offer to tender his or her resignation following certification of the
shareholder vote. Our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will
consider the resignation offer and recommend to our Board whether to accept it.
The Board will act on the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee&#8217;s
recommendation within 90 days following certification of the shareholder vote
and will promptly disclose its decision whether to accept the director&#8217;s
resignation offer (and the reasons for rejecting the resignation offer, if
applicable). Any director who offers to tender his or her resignation as
described above will not participate in the Corporate Governance and

Related Person Transaction Policy applies to a financial transaction,
arrangement, or a series of similar transactions or arrangements of $25,000 or
more. These transactions generally require advance approval by the Corporate
Governance and Nominating Committee (Corporate Governance Committee). If a new
situation arises where advance approval is not practical, it is discussed with
the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee, and an appropriate course of
action may include subsequent ratification by the Corporate Governance
Committee.</font></div>

Corporate Governance Committee considers factors it deems relevant in
determining whether to approve a transaction, including but not limited to the
following: whether the terms are comparable to those that could be obtained in
an arm&#8217;s-length transaction with an unrelated third party; whether there are
business reasons to enter into the transaction; whether the transaction could
impair the independence of a director; and whether the transaction would present
an improper conflict of interest, taking into account the size of the
transaction, the overall financial position of the related person, the direct or
indirect relationship of the related person, and the ongoing nature of any
proposed relationships. The Corporate Governance Committee will also
periodically review and assess relationships to ensure ongoing fairness to the
Company. Any member of the Corporate Governance Committee who has an interest in
a transaction will abstain from voting, but may participate in the discussion if
invited to do so by the Chair of the Corporate Governance
Committee.</font></div>

Corporate Governance Committee examined all transactions between directors and
the Company and determined that each such transaction was small relative to the
director&#8217;s business and that the director was not directly involved in such
transaction. The Board reviewed the Corporate Governance Committee&#8217;s
determination in light of the Company&#8217;s independence standards and the NYSE&#8217;s

the purchase of wood and wood chips that are used as fuel at the Company&#8217;s

financial expertise (including an &#8220;audit committee financial expert&#8221; within the

made good progress developing and implementing business strategies that we

$63.8&#160;million for 2009 (excluding certain non-operating events for purposes
of the annual incentive) was below the threshold annual incentive goal of $72.6
million. Our cash flow of $158.2 million (excluding pension contributions for
purposes of the annual incentive) was slightly higher than the threshold annual
incentive goal of $157.9 million. As a result, the annual incentive payment was
only 13.3 percent of the target payment for 2009, resulting in annual incentive
payments to Named Executive Officers ranging from 4 percent to 8 percent of base

a total shareholder return (TSR) of negative 18.8 percent on their investment in
Common Stock, which fell short of the threshold TSR performance level required
for payment of performance shares. As a result, the Named Executive Officers did
not receive any payment of performance shares for the 2007&#8211;2009 performance
period. Stock options granted from 2004 through 2008 were &#8220;underwater&#8221; as of

data, as further described in the section &#8220;Process for Determining Executive
Compensation&#8221; beginning on page 26. Severance benefits minimize the risk that
our executive officers will depart prior to a change in control and encourage
continued dedication and objectivity from Named Executive Officers when
evaluating transactions that could result in the loss of employment in
connection with a change in control of the Company. We provide perquisites, but
only on a very limited basis to facilitate the Named Executive Officers&#8217;
performance of their responsibilities. We believe this mix of compensation
elements discourages our executives from taking excessive business risk by (i)
having multiple incentive goals, so that there is not undue pressure to achieve
one measure of success without considering the impacts on other aspects of the
business; and (ii)&#160;providing a significant portion of compensation based on
company performance, while still paying a certain amount of fixed compensation
and retirement benefits.</font></div>

</font>We strive to offer fair and competitive compensation to all employees
including our Named Executive Officers. We use energy services industry data to
establish a range for executive compensation. While comparisons to compensation
levels within the energy services industry are helpful in establishing a range
for executive compensation, we believe that our executive compensation program
also must be internally consistent and equitable in order for the Company to
achieve our corporate objectives. In setting pay levels, we consider the
individual&#8217;s experience in the position, past performance, job responsibilities,
and equity within the executive management group. For a Named Executive Officer
with sufficient experience, we generally set compensation levels so that when
target performance is achieved under each of the Company&#8217;s incentive
compensation plans, total compensation is near the midpoint of the pay range
established using market comparison data. When relevant market comparison data
is insufficient to establish a pay range for a specific position, we consider
the internal pay equity among the executive officers in order to maintain
compensation levels that are consistent with the individual contributions and
responsibilities of those executive officers. The process of selecting
comparison companies for various purposes is discussed in the section &#8220;Process
for Determining Executive Compensation&#8221; beginning on page 26. Consistent with
our pay-for-performance philosophy, Named Executive Officers can earn higher
compensation if actual performance exceeds target performance goals. Conversely,
total compensation to Named Executive Officers in any year, such as 2009, in
which the Company does not meet target performance goals will generally fall
below the midpoint in comparison to other companies. Total compensation
generally increases as position and responsibility increase, but at the same
time, a greater percentage of total compensation is tied to performance&#8212;and is
therefore at risk&#8212;as position and responsibility increase. This is reflected in
the differences between Named Executive Officers&#8217; opportunities under our annual
and long-term incentive plans.</font></div>

expectation by using Common Stock to fund long-term incentive compensation
awards and Company contributions to its tax-qualified defined-contribution
retirement plan. All Named Executive Officers are expected to hold Common Stock
acquired through these awards and contributions so long as they hold their
executive positions. A Named Executive Officer, however, may sell Common Stock
to the extent that he or she owns Common Stock that is more than 120 percent of
the expected ownership amount. We do not apply this holding policy to Common
Stock acquired through stock option exercises because we believe that the Named
Executive Officers should be able to access a portion of their long-term
incentive compensation and to diversify their investments. Named Executive
Officers are expected to attain Common Stock ownership in accordance with the

established the Common Stock ownership guidelines in October 2005. In 2009, the
Corporate Governance Committee established a Common Stock ownership guideline of
two times salary for the position of ALLETE President in connection with Mr.
Hodnik&#8217;s promotion to President. Named Executive Officers subject to the
ownership guidelines who held their current positions as of October 2005 have
until October 2010 to meet the guidelines; Named Executive Officers appointed
after October 2005 have seven years from their appointment to meet the
guidelines. Annually, the Board reviews executive officers&#8217; Common Stock
ownership to confirm that the Named Executive Officers are progressing toward
the ownership guidelines. In October 2009, the Board determined that the Named
Executive Officers had increased the number of shares owned and were progressing
towards meeting the ownership guidelines based on the then-current share price.
However, executive officers&#8217; Common Stock ownership value as a multiple of
salary decreased compared to a year ago due to recent declines in our share
price. Ownership levels as of March 12, 2010, are shown on the table on page

of compensation that we may deduct in any one year for Mr. Shippar and certain
of the next most-highly-compensated executive officers. That limit does not
apply to compensation that qualifies as &#8220;performance-based compensation&#8221; within
the meaning of Section 162(m). Our Executive Annual Incentive Plan (AIP)
provides that if Section 162(m) would otherwise limit the Company&#8217;s deduction
for an AIP award, then the Compensation Committee will defer the nondeductible
portion to our supplemental executive retirement plan, which is described on
page 40. We believe that stock options and performance shares awarded under the
ALLETE Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (LTIP) are fully tax
deductible because they meet the &#8220;performance-based compensation&#8221; standard of
Section 162(m). In Proposal 4 below, we are requesting shareholder re-approval
of the material terms of the performance goals of our LTIP so that compensation
attributable to future plan awards can continue to qualify as deductible,
performance-based compensation. Our restricted stock units do not qualify as

limits of Section 280G, the Company&#8217;s deduction is limited and the recipient is
subject to an excise tax. Our severance plan provides that if plan payments to a
participant would exceed the Section 280G limits, payments to the participant
will be reduced to the maximum amount that can be paid without causing the
Company to lose its deduction. If, however, after the reduction a participant
would receive less than 85 percent of the amount that otherwise would have been
received, plan payments will not be reduced and the participant will instead
receive an additional gross-up payment to make the participant whole for the
excise tax. We would not receive a tax deduction for any additional gross-up

in the AIP is limited to certain management-level employees, including each
Named Executive Officer, because as position and responsibility increase, a
greater percentage of pay is tied to performance. For each Named Executive
Officer AIP awards were designed to reward achievement of corporate earnings and
cash flow goals, and to reward the accomplishment of strategic initiatives which
for 2009 included creating a business venture focused on renewable energy
markets, maintaining a competitive cost position to enable us to sell power to
the wholesale market if not sold to our retail customers, and leadership
development and succession planning. These performance objectives are further
described under &#8220;Grants of Plan-Based Awards Discussion&#8221; beginning on
page&#160;34. Earnings were selected as a financial measure because it is widely
tracked and reported by external financial analysts and used as a measure to
evaluate the Company&#8217;s performance. Cash flow was selected as a financial
measure because it is used to evaluate the Company&#8217;s ability to generate funds
from internal operations for capital projects, repayment of debt, and dividend
payments. Earnings and cash flow were also selected because both measures can
impact the Company&#8217;s stock price. AIP awards are expressed as a percentage of
salary for Named Executive Officers; 2009 target-level award opportunities
ranged from 30 percent to 60 percent of salary. The Compensation Committee set
the AIP opportunity levels for all Named Executive Officers so that if the
Company achieved target goals, the combination of salary and annual incentives
for the Named Executive Officer would result in total annual compensation near
the midpoint of the ranges established using comparative benchmarking
data.</font></div>

We use long-term incentive compensation to encourage Named Executive Officers to
develop and implement business strategies that grow TSR over time, and to reward
executives when TSR goals are achieved. Long-term incentive compensation
programs also encourage executives to stay with the Company because they deliver
rewards over time and contain forfeiture provisions for certain terminations of
employment. The Compensation Committee annually grants the Named Executive
Officers long-term incentive awards under the LTIP. Each year, in January, the
Compensation Committee approves LTIP awards. The target number of shares is
determined by dividing each Named Executive Officer&#8217;s target award opportunity
set forth in the table below by the award value, which was calculated for 2009
by Hewitt Associates (Hewitt), an independent compensation consulting firm
retained by the Compensation Committee. The award value calculated by Hewitt
differs from the compensation expense amount shown in column (d) of the Summary
Compensation Table on page 31 in that it also incorporates a discount factor to
adjust each long-term incentive award for (i) the performance characteristics of
our awards versus the awards granted by companies within our peer group and
(ii)&#160;the risk of forfeiture over the performance or vesting period. We do
not have any plan or program in place to time equity awards to the release of
material non-public information. The LTIP was most recently amended and approved
by shareholders in May 2005. In Proposal 4 below, we are requesting shareholder
re-approval of the material terms of the performance goals of our LTIP so that
compensation attributable to future plan awards can continue to qualify as
performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section
162(m).</font></div>

Officer, except for Mr. Shippar, was allocated 67 percent to performance shares

contribution retirement savings and stock ownership plan (RSOP) that has
features of both an employee stock ownership plan and a 401(k) savings plan, and
traditional tax-qualified defined benefit pension plans. Since October 2006, we
have emphasized delivering nonunion retirement benefits through the RSOP. Each
Named Executive Officer&#8217;s service through September 30, 2006, is counted for
calculating his or her benefit under the nonunion pension plan. The present
value on December 31, 2009, of each Named Executive Officer&#8217;s pension benefits
is shown in the Pension Benefits Table on page 39. The 2009 increase in the
pension benefits value for each Named Executive Officer is included in column

ALLETE and Affiliated Companies Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan II (SERP
II). SERP I and SERP II collectively are referred to as the SERP or the SERP
Plans. Generally, the SERP Plans are designed to provide retirement benefits to
the Named Executive Officers that, in aggregate, substantially equal the
benefits they would have been entitled to receive if the Tax Code did not impose
limitations on the types and amounts of compensation that can be included in the
benefit calculations under tax-qualified benefit plans. The SERP Plans have
three components: a supplemental pension benefit, a supplemental defined
contribution benefit, and a deferral account benefit. On December 31, 2004, the
Company froze SERP I with respect to all deferrals and vested accrued retirement
benefits. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company established SERP II to comply
with Section 409A of the Tax Code. SERP II governs all compensation initially
deferred and retirement benefits accrued or vested after December 31, 2004. SERP
benefits are discussed in more detail starting on page 40.</font></div>

additional tax reimbursement payment for the imputed income taxes. In response
to worsening economic conditions, in early 2009 Mr. Shippar recommended, and the
Compensation Committee approved, the elimination of car allowances for all
executive officers. The Compensation Committee has reviewed the few remaining
perquisites, including the tax reimbursement, and determined that they are a
very small component of total compensation and continue to be appropriate

Severance Plan (Severance Plan) provides the Named Executive Officers and other
key executives with severance benefits in connection with a change in control of
the Company. The purpose of the Severance Plan is to enable and encourage the
continued dedication and objectivity of members of the Company&#8217;s management in
the event of a potential change in control. In the event of a potential change
in control of the Company, the Severance Plan allows the Named Executive

before and up to two years after a change in control. We think that requiring
two trigger events, both a change in control and termination of employment, is
the most effective way to meet the objectives of the Severance Plan&#8212;to allow the
Named Executive Officers to remain neutral and obtain the best deal for the
shareholders and ensures that the Named Executive Officers do not receive
benefits unless they are adversely affected by a change in control.</font></div>

compensation, which is reviewed and ratified by the Board without participation
by the CEO. In setting the CEO&#8217;s compensation, the Compensation Committee
reviews and considers the Corporate Governance Committee&#8217;s annual evaluation of
the CEO&#8217;s performance, which, among other things, assesses his performance
relative to specific annual objectives established by the Board. The
Compensation Committee also reviews market data, comparing the CEO&#8217;s
compensation to the compensation of senior executives at other energy services
industry companies. Benchmarking data is adjusted to account for the Company&#8217;s
size as measured by revenue and provides a broader market context for the
Compensation Committee&#8217;s deliberations and decisions. The Compensation Committee
also reviews and approves the CEO&#8217;s recommendations regarding the components and
amounts of the compensation of the other Named Executive Officers.</font></div>

connection with Mr. Hodnik&#8217;s promotion to President effective May 12, 2009, the
Compensation Committee reviewed benchmarking data comparing his compensation to
the compensation of senior executives at other energy services industry

determined that the executive officers&#8217; compensation included appropriate
elements, but that the AIP and LTIP target award opportunities were low compared
to market competitive levels. In early 2009, the Compensation Committee directed
the Company to increase AIP target award opportunities for each executive
officer, except for Mr. Adams, by 5 percent of salary thereby increasing
pay-for-performance. Although LTIP target award opportunities for each executive
officer fell well below the blended market value benchmark, Mr. Shippar
recommended no increases to the 2009 LTIP target award opportunities, except for
Mr. Adams, because of economic conditions. Mr. Shippar recommended increasing
Mr. Adams&#8217; 2009 LTIP target award opportunity from $63,300 to $75,000 to
maintain internal pay equity among the other executive officers while at the
same time placing more emphasis on pay-for-performance. Mr. Shippar also
recommended no annual market-adjustment salary increases for executive officers
and other management-level employees who participate in the AIP and the
elimination of all car allowances as cost saving measures. The Compensation
Committee approved these recommendations. </font></div>

      The Company changed the mix of long-term incentive awards granted to
      executive officers in 2009 under the LTIP. Restricted stock units were
      granted instead of stock options to place more emphasis on increased stock
      ownership and retention. Each restricted stock unit entitles the executive
      officer to one share of Common Stock after three years from the award
      date. Dividend equivalents accrue during the vesting period and are paid
      in shares of Common Stock when the underlying restricted stock units vest.
      Executive officers must remain employed by the Company at the time the
      restricted stock units and accrued dividend equivalents vest to receive
      the full award of Common Stock. The restricted stock units will vest
      immediately on a prorated basis upon retirement, disability, death, or a

      changed the group of companies used to measure TSR performance under the
      LTIP to place more emphasis on long-term performance relative to the
      electric utility industry, as our Florida real estate operations have
      become a much smaller component of the Company. Relative TSR performance
      is used to determine the number of performance shares earned under the
      LTIP. The peer group approved for 2009 is comprised of 27 companies
      selected from the Edison Electric Institute Stock Index based on
      comparability to the Company in terms of size as measured by market
      capitalization and payment of a dividend. These changes better align the
      peer group to our current operations which are focused on the electric
      utility industry and much less on Florida real estate. The changes to the
      peer group that were implemented are shown above, beginning on page 23.

connection with Mr. Hodnik&#8217;s promotion to President in early 2009, the
Compensation Committee directed Hewitt to perform a review of base pay, annual
incentives, and long-term incentives of senior executives in the energy services
industry. The market data used in the &#8220;2008 Executive Compensation Study&#8221; as
described on page 27 along with other considerations the Compensation Committee
deemed relevant, such as experience, tenure, and performance, formed the basis
for the Compensation Committee&#8217;s deliberations and compensation decisions for
setting Mr. Hodnik&#8217;s compensation. Effective May 1, 2009, the Compensation
Committee set Mr.&#160;Hodnik&#8217;s base salary at $300,000, his 2009 AIP target
award opportunity at 40 percent of his base salary, and his 2009 long-term
incentive target award opportunity to $250,000. On February 8, 2010, the Board
selected Mr.&#160;Hodnik to succeed Mr. Shippar as CEO effective May 1, 2010.
The Compensation Committee, in consultation with the Corporate Governance
Committee and PM&amp;P, anticipates they will review Mr. Hodnik&#8217;s compensation
in 2010 and set his compensation to reflect the additional responsibilities he
will assume as CEO.</font></div>

mid-2009 Mr. Shippar recommended discontinuing, retroactive to January 1, 2009,
Results Sharing, a broad-based profit-sharing program that was available to
virtually all of our employees. Mr. Shippar made this recommendation because the
Minnesota Public Utilities Commission ruled that if the Company did not pay
Results Sharing awards because it did not achieve the performance goals, the
Company was required to refund customers any amount that had been previously
included in electric rates to fund Results Sharing awards. The Results Sharing
program had previously provided each Named Executive Officer a target-level
opportunity equal to 5 percent of base pay. For the Named Executive Officers,
the full 5 percent target award opportunity under Results Sharing was considered
pay-at-risk. In October 2009, the Compensation Committee approved an increase to
each Named Executive Officer&#8217;s AIP target opportunity equal to 5 percent of base
pay retroactive to January 1, 2009, to maintain the overall competitiveness of
the compensation program in a way that maintained the link between pay and
performance. </font></div>

The Stock Award and Option Award values shown do not represent amounts paid to
the Named Executive Officers in the year reported, but represent the theoretical
value of the future payout because the actual value a Named Executive Officer
earns will depend on the extent to which his or her LTIP goals are achieved and
on the market price of our Common Stock. The actual value each Named Executive
Officer realized in 2009 from Stock Awards and Option Awards is shown in the
Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table on page 38. Likewise, the amounts shown
in column (g) were not paid to the Named Executive Officers in the year

      memberships for Mr. Shippar&#8212;$7,212. Amounts also include reimbursement for
      financial and tax planning services (up to $1,500 annually), an office
      parking space, and club memberships having a primary business purpose (but
      which may also allow Named Executive Officers personal use of the
      facilities or services). The value assigned to each perquisite given to a
      Named Executive Officer is based on the aggregate incremental cost to the
      Company associated with the fringe benefit, except for club memberships,
      in which the total cost is reported. The amounts reflect the full, actual
      cost of the fringe benefit in all cases, except for spouses&#8217; travel and
      entertainment expenses. The aggregate cost to the Company for spousal
      travel, meals, and entertainment was calculated as the full actual cost of
      each benefit in excess of the amount the Company would have paid had the
      Named Executive Officer been traveling or eating without his or her
      spouse.</font></div>

goals for 2009 were related to the Company&#8217;s ability to create a business
venture focused on renewable energy markets, maintaining a competitive cost
position to enable the Company to sell power to the wholesale market if not sold
to its retail customers, and leadership development and succession planning.
Each AIP goal&#8217;s achievement was independently measured. By design, no awards are
earned if both financial goal results fall below their threshold performance
levels. The amount of the target award opportunity earned is based on the goal
weighting percentage assigned to the AIP performance goals achieved. The amount
of the target award opportunity allocated to the strategic goals is contingent
on achieving NI threshold performance. The amounts shown in column (d) of the
Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 33 reflect the minimum AIP award that
would be payable&#8212;ranging from 11.3 percent to 22.5 percent of base salary&#8212;if
both NI and CFOA results are at threshold and if there is no progress on
strategic goals. The amounts shown in column (e) reflect the AIP target-level
awards that would be payable&#8212;ranging from 30 percent to 60 percent of base
salary&#8212;if NI and CFOA results are at target and all strategic goals are
achieved. The amount shown in column (f) reflects maximum AIP awards that would
be payable&#8212;ranging from 60 percent to 120 percent of base salary&#8212;if NI and CFOA
results are at superior and all strategic goals are surpassed. </font></div>

Compensation Committee as to the degree to which such goals have been achieved.
The Compensation Committee then approves each AIP goal achievement level. Actual
2009 NI fell below the threshold by 12&#160;percent, or $8.8 million; CFOA
exceeded threshold by less than 1&#160;percent, or $0.3 million; and strategic
goals, overall, were met. The resulting total AIP payout for 2009 was calculated

Power and Affiliated Companies Retirement Plan A (Retirement Plan A) is a
tax-qualified defined benefit pension plan that covers the majority of our
nonunion employees, including the Named Executive Officers. Pension benefits are
based on the employee&#8217;s years of service and the employee&#8217;s final average

highest consecutive 48 months of salary and Results Sharing awards in the last
15 years of service. As the result of a Company-wide nonunion benefit change,
Named Executive Officers have not accrued additional credited service under
Retirement Plan A since September&#160;30, 2006. The pension benefit is
calculated as a life annuity using the following formula:</font></div>

also provides a supplemental defined contribution benefit and a deferral account
benefit. The SERP supplemental defined contribution benefit is designed to
provide Named Executive Officers a benefit that is substantially equal to the
benefit they would have been entitled to receive if the Tax Code did not impose
limitations on the types and amounts of compensation that can be included in the
benefit calculations under the Flexible Benefit Plan and RSOP. Annually, each
Named Executive Officer may elect to defer to a SERP II deferral account, on a
before-tax basis, some or all of his or her salary and AIP award. Named
Executive Officers whose base salary is below the tax-qualified benefit plan&#8217;s
annual compensation limits may also elect to defer some or all of the SERP II
defined contribution benefit. Named Executive Officers can select among
different crediting rates to apply to deferral balances under the SERP Plans,
which match the investment options available to all employees under the RSOP.
These investment options include mutual funds and similar investments. The Named
Executive Officers may change their investment elections at any time. The amount
of the 2009 SERP II defined contribution benefit received by each Named
Executive Officer is included in column (h) of the Summary Compensation Table on
page 31. The aggregate amount each Named Executive Officer elected to defer and
the amount that the Company contributed to the SERP II in 2009 is shown in the
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table on page 42.</font></div>

contributions made prior to January 1, 2005, the full SERP I deferral account
balance will be paid prior to the scheduled commencement date to any Named
Executive Officer who is not eligible to retire at the time he or she terminates
employment with the Company. In addition, a Named Executive Officer may request
an early distribution of some or all of his or her SERP I deferral account

made to his or her account prior to January 1, 2005, subject to a 10 percent

closed to new contributions since then. The Company resets the crediting rate

Treasury Note. The EIP II benefits become payable upon retirement in the form of
monthly annuity payments over a 5-, 10-, or 15-year period as elected by the
executive. Generally, EIP II benefit payments will not begin earlier than the
elected commencement date. However, the Named Executive Officer may request an

Named Executive Officer is entitled to receive specified benefits in the event
his or her employment is involuntarily terminated six months before or up to two
years after a change in control. An involuntary termination is deemed to occur
if (i) the Company terminates the employment of the Named Executive Officer
other than for cause, or (ii) the Named Executive Officer resigns from his or
her employment with good reason. Cause generally includes reasons such as
failure to perform duties, willful misconduct, or felony convictions. Good
reason generally means a material reduction in the Named Executive Officer&#8217;s
responsibilities or authority; a material reduction in his or her supervisor&#8217;s
responsibilities or authority; a material reduction in base salary, incentive
compensation, or other benefits; a material breach by the Company of an
agreement under which a Named Executive Officer provides services; or
reassignment to another geographic location more than 50 miles from the Named
Executive Officer&#8217;s current job location.</font></div>

Severance Plan, Mr. Shippar, Mr. Schober, Mr. Hodnik and Ms. Amberg would be
entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment of 2.5 times their annual
compensation. Mr. Adams would receive a severance payment of 1.5 times his
annual compensation. Ms. Welty&#8217;s participation in the Severance Plan ended upon
her retirement; therefore, she would not be entitled to receive a lump sum
severance payment. Annual compensation includes base salary and an amount
representing a target award under the AIP in effect for the year of termination.
The Severance Plan also provides a lump sum benefit continuation payment to Mr.
Shippar, Mr. Schober, Mr.&#160;Hodnik and Ms. Amberg approximately equal in
value to the benefits (as specified below) that they would have received had
they remained in the employ of the Company after their termination for an
additional 2.5 years, and in the case of Mr. Adams, an additional
1.5&#160;years. The lump sum benefit continuation payment includes the value of
the following benefits: (i) premiums for medical, dental, and basic group term
life insurance benefits; (ii) Company contributions under the Flexible Benefit
Plan; and (iii) the present value of additional SERP II benefits the Participant
would have received under the SERP II had employment continued for 2.5 or 1.5
years after the later of the change in control or termination, as
applicable.</font></div>

date of the change in control. AIP awards could range from zero to 200 percent
of the target award opportunity depending on actual goal results. The SERP II
also provides for a lump sum payment of benefits earned after December 31, 2004,
through the termination of employment in connection with a change in control.
Under the LTIP, if a change in control were to occur, unvested stock options
would immediately vest, restricted stock units would immediately vest on a
prorated basis, and performance share awards would immediately pay out on a
prorated basis at the greater of target level or the level earned based on
then-current actual TSR ranking as compared to the peer group companies.

subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Tax Code, unless the payment
would have to be reduced to an amount less than 85 percent of the amount the
Named Executive Officer would otherwise have received, absent the imposition of
the excise tax. If payments to a Named Executive Officer would be reduced to an
amount less than 85 percent of the amount the Named Executive Officer would
otherwise have received, total payments would not be reduced and the Named
Executive Officer would instead receive an additional gross-up payment that
would provide the Named Executive Officer with the same net after-tax payment

applied to any of the payments.</font></div>

On December 31, 2004, the Company froze Deferral Plan I with respect to all
deferrals. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company established Deferral Plan II
to comply with Section 409A of the Tax Code. Deferral Plan II governs all cash
retainers initially deferred after December 31, 2004. On May 1, 2009, the Board
amended the Deferral Plan II to permit directors to elect to defer their stock
retainers.</font></div>

Annually, each director may elect to defer to a Deferral Plan II stock account

committee financial expert&#8221; within the meaning of the rules of the SEC. The
Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that was reviewed and
reaffirmed in January 2009. The current Audit Committee charter is available on
the Company&#8217;s Web site at <font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline">www.allete.com</font>. The
Audit Committee assists the Board&#8217;s oversight of the integrity of the Company&#8217;s
financial reports, compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the
qualifications and independence of the independent registered public accounting
firm, both the internal and external audit process, and internal controls over
financial reporting. The Audit Committee reviews and recommends to the Board
that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual
Report.</font></div>

2009, the Audit Committee met and held separate discussions with members of
management and the Company&#8217;s independent registered public accounting firm,
PricewaterhouseCoopers, regarding certain audit activities and with the Director
of Internal Audit regarding the plans for and results of selected internal
audits. The Audit Committee reviewed the quarterly financial statements. It
reviewed with management and the independent registered public accounting firm
the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, and the
Company&#8217;s compliance with laws and regulations. It also reviewed the Company&#8217;s
process for communicating its code of business conduct and ethics. The Audit
Committee approved the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers as the Company&#8217;s
independent registered public accounting firm for the year 2010, subject to
shareholder ratification. The Audit Committee received and reviewed the written
disclosures and letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers required by applicable
requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) regarding
the independent registered public accounting firm&#8217;s communications with the
Audit Committee concerning independence and discussed with the independent
registered public accounting firm the firm&#8217;s independence. The Audit Committee

burdensome than the default voting standard provided for under Minnesota

director, rather than just plurality voting. The Company&#8217;s Corporate Governance
Committee and Board believe that the existing vote requirement, when combined
with recent NYSE rule changes preventing brokers from voting shares of stock
that are held in &#8220;street name&#8221; in the absence of an instruction by the
beneficial owner, imposes a significant burden on the Company without providing
our shareholders with a corresponding benefit. The Articles Amendment is

foregoing is a summary of the Articles Amendment and the action to be taken with
respect to our Bylaws. The complete text of the amendment to Article VI of the
Articles and Section 9 of the Bylaws that has been approved by our Board, and
recommended by our disinterested directors, is set forth in Appendix A to this
Proxy Statement and the above summary and following discussion is qualified in
its entirety by reference to Appendix A. </font></div>

Company&#8217;s shareholders approve the change in voting standards, then in future
uncontested elections our directors will be elected by a vote of a majority of
the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present, rather than by a vote
of a majority of the outstanding stock entitled to vote, subject to the rights,
if any, of the holders of any preferred stock of the Company, none of which is
currently outstanding. The term &#8220;a majority of the votes cast&#8221; means that the
number of votes cast &#8220;for&#8221; the election of a director must exceed the number of
votes cast &#8220;against&#8221; the election of that director. If, however, an election is
contested, so that the number of nominees (other than nominees withdrawn on or
before the 60th day before the first anniversary of the preceding year&#8217;s annual
shareholder meeting) exceeds the number of directors to be elected, directors
will be elected by a plurality of the votes present in person or by proxy and
entitled to vote, again subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any
preferred stock of the Company, none of which is currently outstanding. The term
&#8220;plurality of the votes present&#8221; means that the director nominees with the most
&#8220;for&#8221; votes will be elected, regardless of the number of &#8220;against&#8221; votes for
those directors. </font></div>

a Minnesota corporation and under Minnesota corporate law, if an incumbent
director is not elected, that director continues to serve as a &#8220;holdover
director&#8221; until a successor is elected and qualified. To address this potential
outcome, our Board has approved amending our Corporate Governance Guidelines to
include a director resignation policy, subject to shareholder approval of this
Item 3. Specifically, the policy will provide that in an uncontested election,
any nominee for director who receives more votes &#8220;against&#8221; his or her election
than votes &#8220;for&#8221; his or her election, will be required to promptly offer to
tender his or her resignation following certification of the shareholder vote.
Our Corporate Governance Committee will consider the resignation offer and
recommend to the Company&#8217;s Board whether to accept it. The Board will promptly
disclose its decision whether to accept the director&#8217;s resignation offer
(including the reasons for rejecting a resignation offer, if applicable). Any
director who offers to tender his or her resignation as described above will not
participate in the Corporate Governance Committee&#8217;s recommendation or Board
action regarding whether to accept the resignation offer. </font></div>

are asked to re-approve the material terms of the performance goals under the
ALLETE Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (LTIP or Plan). This
re-approval is required under Internal Revenue Service regulations in order to
preserve the Company&#8217;s federal income tax deduction when payments related to
these awards are made to certain executive officers. In particular,
Section&#160;162(m) of the Tax Code generally prevents a publicly-held
corporation from claiming federal income tax deductions for compensation in
excess of $1&#160;million paid to certain of its executive officers.
Compensation, if it qualifies as &#8220;performance-based compensation,&#8221; is exempt
from this limitation. In order to qualify as performance-based compensation,
among other conditions, the shareholders must re-approve the material terms of
the performance goals every five years. The LTIP was last approved by
shareholders in May 2005. We are not seeking approval for any changes to the
LTIP and re-approval does not represent an enhancement to executive
compensation.</font></div>

purpose of the LTIP is to promote the success and enhance the value of ALLETE by
linking participants&#8217; personal interest to those of ALLETE shareholders and
customers, and providing participants with an incentive for outstanding
performance. The Plan is further intended to assist ALLETE in its ability to
motivate, attract and retain the services of participants upon whom the
successful conduct of its operations is largely dependent. The Plan originally
became effective on January 1, 1996, and it allows grants to be made through
December 31, 2015. The Board may, at any time, and from time to time, alter,
amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole or in part; provided that no
amendment which requires shareholder approval in order for the Plan to continue
to comply with Section 422 of the Tax Code, Section 303A.08 of the NYSE Listed

      shares, restricted stock units and restricted stock depend on the facts
      and circumstances of each award, including, in particular, the nature of
      any restrictions imposed with respect to the awards. In general, if awards
      granted to a participant are subject to a &#8220;substantial risk of forfeiture&#8221;
      (e.g., the awards are conditioned upon the future performance of
      substantial services by the participant or the attainment of specified
      performance goals) and are nontransferable, a taxable event occurs when
      the risk of forfeiture ceases or the awards become transferable, whichever
      first occurs. At such time, the participant will recognize ordinary income
      to the extent of the excess of the fair market value of the awards on such
      date over the participant&#8217;s cost for such awards, if any, and the Company
      will be entitled to a corresponding deduction in an amount equal to the
      ordinary income recognized by the participant. Under certain
      circumstances, a participant may elect pursuant to Section&#160;83(b) of
      the Tax Code to accelerate federal income tax recognition with respect to
      stock awards that are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and
      transferability restrictions, in which event the participant will
      recognize ordinary income at the time of grant in an amount equal to the
      excess of the fair market value of the shares at such time over the
      amount, if any, paid for the shares and the Company will be entitled to a
      corresponding deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income
      recognized by the participant. If the awards granted to a participant are
      not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or transferability
      restrictions, the participant will recognize ordinary income with respect
      to the awards to the extent of the excess of the fair market value of the
      awards at the time of grant over the participant&#8217;s cost, if any, and the
      Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction in an amount equal
      to the ordinary income recognized by the participant. If an award is
      granted but no stock is actually issued to the participant at the time the
      award is granted, the participant will recognize ordinary income at the
      time the participant receives stock free of any substantial risk of
      forfeiture and the amount of ordinary income will be equal to the fair
      market value of the stock at such time over the participant&#8217;s cost, if
      any, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction in an
      amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant. In each
      case, the Company&#8217;s deduction may be subject to compliance with Section
      162(m) of the Tax Code. Upon disposition of any shares acquired through
      awards, the participant will recognize long-term or short-term capital
      gain or loss depending upon the sale price and holding period of the
