(1) The stock unit awards vesting as of December 31, 2014, were settled for cash. The value of each stock unit award was the economic equivalent of one share of Vectren Corporation common stock.
(2) The stock unit awards were acquired pursuant to the Vectren Corporation At Risk Compensation Plan (Plan) and are subject to forfeiture as provided by the Plan and the Plan agreement. The lifting of restrictions and the application of the forfeiture provisions were dependent upon performance during a measuring period from January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2013 and, subject to certain enumerated circumstances, continued employment until December 31, 2014. Upon lifting of restrictions, the grantee shall be paid, for each stock unit award, in cash, the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date restrictions lapse, provide grantee is in compliance with share ownership guidelines established by the board of directors (Board). If grantee is not in compliance with share ownership guidelines, the value of each stock unit award shall be paid in unrestricted Vectren Corporation common stock. Dividends paid during the restriction period shall accrue as additional stock unit awards and are subject to forfeiture. The Board Compensation and Benefits committee approved the acquisition in accordance with Rule 16b-3(d).
