 General Description of Types of Customer Contracts for Infrastructure Services • Infrastructure Services operates primarily under two types of contracts – blanket contracts and bid contracts. Blanket contracts are ones which a customer is not committed to specific volumes of services, but where we have been or expect to be chosen to perform work needed by a customer in a given time frame (typically awarded on a yearly basis). Bid contracts are ones which a customer will commit to a specific service to be performed for a specific price, whether in total for a project or on a per unit basis (e.g., per dig or per foot).  General Description of Backlog for Infrastructure Services • For blanket work, backlog represents an estimate of the amount of gross revenue that we expect to realize from work to be performed in the next 12 months on existing contracts or contracts we reasonably expect to be renewed or awarded based upon recent history or discussions with customers. • For bid work, backlog represents the value remaining on contracts awarded or that we reasonably expect to be awarded, but are not yet completed. • While there is a reasonable basis to estimate backlog, there can be no assurance as to our customers’ eventual demand for our services each year or, therefore, the accuracy of our estimate of backlog.  Backlog for Infrastructure Services estimated as follows: • For blanket work, estimated backlog as of 9/30/16 is $445 million. The estimate of the amount of gross revenue that we expect to realize from work to be performed in the next 12 months is multiplied by 80% to factor in such unknowns as weather and potential budgetary restrictions of customers. • For bid work, estimated backlog as of 9/30/16 is $190 million. • Total estimated backlog as of 9/30/16: $635 million compared to $695 million at 6/30/16 and $635 million at 9/30/15 37 Infrastructure Services (VISCO) Estimated Backlog Appendix

42 Contribution to Vectren's Basic EPS Per share earnings contributions of the Utility Group, Nonutility Group, and Corporate and Other are presented and are non- GAAP measures. Such per share amounts are based on the earnings contribution of each group included in the Company’s consolidated results divided by the Company’s basic average shares outstanding during the period. The earnings per share of the groups do not represent a direct legal interest in the assets and liabilities allocated to the groups, but rather represent a direct equity interest in Vectren Corporation's assets and liabilities as a whole. These non-GAAP measures are used by management to evaluate the performance of individual businesses. In addition, other items giving rise to period over period variances, such as weather, may be presented on an after tax and per share basis. These amounts are calculated at a statutory tax rate divided by the Company’s basic average shares outstanding during the period. Accordingly, management believes these measures are useful to investors in understanding each business’ contribution to consolidated earnings per share and in analyzing consolidated period to period changes and the potential for earnings per share contributions in future periods. Per share amounts of the Utility Group and the Nonutility Group are reconciled to the GAAP financial measure of basic EPS by adding the two together. If there is a difference, that difference results from Corporate and Other operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP.
