Dear Dave:
I am pleased to offer you the position of President and Chief Operating Officer of Public Service Electric & Gas (“PSE&G”) and Chairman of the Board (“COB”) of PSEG Long Island, effective October 2, 2017. In this position, you will be an employee of PSE&G. You will be paid a base annual salary of $500,000. You shall be eligible for your next salary review in January 2019. Salary reviews will be conducted annually thereafter.
You will continue to be eligible to participate in PSEG’s Senior Management Incentive Compensation Plan (“SMICP”) under the terms and conditions of the SMICP. Your target incentive award for 2017 will be 75% of your base salary, however, you may be eligible to receive up to 150% of your base salary dependent upon business results. Targets and awards may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with established plan procedures. There is no guarantee of payment under the SMICP, and any such payment will be contingent upon your establishment and successful completion of 2017 goals and objectives and your award, if earned, for 2017 will be payable in 2018. Any SMICP award for 2017 will be prorated based on your transfer date of October 2, 2017. For the period January 1 to October 1, 2017, the SMICP award will be based on your position as President & COO, PSEG Long Island with an incentive target of 50%, and for the period of October 2 to December 31, 2017, it will be based on your position as President & COO, PSE&G and COB of PSEG Long Island with an incentive target for 75%.

You will continue to be a participant in the PSEG 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan as amended (“LTIP”). In February 2018, it will be recommended to the Organization and Compensation Committee (“O&CC”) that you be granted a 2018 LTIP award of $750,000. This grant will be in the form of 30% Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and 70% Performance Share Units (“PSUs”). In the future, the number and form of LTIP grants recommended in any given year will appropriately reflect your responsibilities and ability to contribute to the long-term success of PSEG and is subject to the approval of the O&CC of the Board. All future grants under the LTIP will be subject to the terms of the LTIP and the related grant award agreements.

You will continue to be eligible to participate in the PSEG Deferred Compensation Plan For Certain Employees (“Deferred Compensation Plan”), which will allow you to defer all or a portion of your base pay and/or any cash incentive you may receive in any given year. In November, you will receive information regarding participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for 2018.
You will continue to be eligible to participate in the PSEG Equity Deferral Plan (“Deferred Equity Plan”), which will allow you to defer all or a portion of the receipt of shares under the LTIP.
