They have multiple responsibilities within and provide various services to Progress Energy and its subsidiaries. The total compensation of Progress Energy’s executive officers is designed to cover the full range of services they provide to Progress Energy and its subsidiaries.

Johnson, $680,000; Peter M. Scott III, $500,000; Clayton S. Hinnant, $285,000; Fred N. Day IV, $315,000; Donald K. Davis, $325,000; H. William Habermeyer Jr., $226,000; and Geoffrey S. Chatas, $277,750. The annual incentives are cash bonuses awarded pursuant to, and consistent with the terms of, the Company’s Management Incentive Compensation Plan.

McGehee, 66,029 and 40,200; William D. Johnson, 29,599 and 16,600; Peter M. Scott III, 19,723 and 12,100; Clayton S. Hinnant, 11,646 and 6,000; and Fred N. Day IV, 11,659 and 6,100.  Both the performance shares and restricted stock are awarded pursuant to, and consistent with the terms of, the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan.
