Pursuant to the 2014 annual retainer for non-employee directors described in the 2014 Proxy Statement, each of the eight non-employee directors of PNMR received an award of 2,352 restricted stock rights under the 2014 PEP, which restricted stock rights vest in three equal annual installments beginning on May 15, 2015.
