ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

On October 15, 2015, the Board of Directors of WEC Energy Group, Inc. (“WEC Energy”) appointed William J. Guc as Vice President and Controller. Mr. Guc joined WEC Energy as a Vice President in connection with its June 29, 2015 acquisition of Integrys Energy Group, Inc. (“Integrys”). At the time of the acquisition, Mr. Guc was serving as Vice President and Treasurer of Integrys, a position he had held since December 2010. From September 2008 until December 2010, Mr. Guc served as Vice President and Controller of Integrys Energy Services, Inc., a former nonregulated subsidiary of Integrys that sold electricity and natural gas in deregulated markets.

Mr. Guc succeeds Stephen P. Dickson, who intends to retire by the end of the first quarter 2016. Until his retirement, Mr. Dickson will serve WEC Energy in an advisory role. Mr. Dickson’s decision was voluntary. There was no disagreement or dispute with WEC Energy.

WEC Energy entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Guc, dated as of May 12, 2015. Pursuant to this agreement, Mr. Guc will receive an initial annual base salary of $282,000, subject to periodic review and adjustment, and is eligible to participate in WEC Energy’s Short-Term Performance Plan, with a target award of 50% of base salary. In addition, Mr. Guc will participate in WEC Energy’s long-term incentive plans with an initial target compensation level of 61% of base salary. Long-term awards may be in the form of stock options, restricted stock and performance units. Mr. Guc is entitled to participate in WEC Energy's pension plan and other retirement and deferred compensation plans, as well as an executive financial planning benefit of $12,000, executive life insurance and executive annual physical benefit. Mr. Guc is also eligible for WEC Energy’s relocation assistance program.

The Boards of Directors of Wisconsin Electric Power Company and Wisconsin Public Service Corporation, both subsidiaries of WEC Energy, also appointed Mr. Guc as Vice President and Controller of these companies. Mr. Guc also holds offices in other WEC Energy subsidiaries.
