Recoupment of Incentive Compensation. By accepting this Award, you agree to reimburse AEP for compensation awarded, earned, received or paid to you under this Award agreement with respect to the relevant time period if the Board, in its discretion, determines that: • You are a Covered Employee (as defined in the American Electric Power Company, Inc. Board Policy on Recouping Incentive Compensation, as amended from time to time), and • This restricted stock unit award or any compensation resulting from it was predicated upon the achievement of financial or other results that were subsequently materially restated or corrected, and • A payment that is materially lower would have been made to you had achievement been calculated based upon the restated or corrected financial or other results. Therefore, if and to the extent that, in the Board’s view, the above conditions have been met and such reimbursement is warranted by the facts and circumstances of the particular case or if the applicable legal requirements impose more stringent requirements on AEP to obtain reimbursement of such compensation, then you will be required to reimburse AEP for the value of such compensation paid to you. Any such reimbursement must be paid in full to AEP within ninety (90) days of AEP’s issuance of its notice to you. By entering into this Agreement, you further agree and consent that AEP also may retain any deferred compensation previously credited to you and not paid, provided that AEP will retain such deferred compensation only if, when and to the extent that it otherwise becomes payable to you. This right to reimbursement is in addition to, and not in substitution for, any and all other rights AEP might have to pursue reimbursement or such other remedies against an employee (including a Covered Employee) for misconduct in the course of employment by AEP or otherwise based on applicable legal considerations, all of which are expressly retained by AEP.

Recoupment of Incentive Compensation. In the event of a material restatement of financial results, other than as a result of a change in accounting principles (a “Restatement”) where a Covered Officer engaged in fraud or Misconduct that caused the need for the Restatement, the Board will review all Incentive Compensation paid to Covered Officers on the basis of having met or exceeded specific performance targets for performance periods during the Restatement period. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board will seek to recoup Incentive Compensation, in all appropriate cases (taking into account all relevant factors, including whether the assertion of a recoupment claim may prejudice the interests of the Company in any related proceeding or investigation), paid to any Covered Officer on or after March 6, 2013, if and to the extent that (i) the amount (or vesting) of Incentive Compensation was calculated based upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently reduced due to a Restatement, and (ii) the amount (or vesting) of Incentive Compensation that would have been paid (or, in the case of equity-based compensation, vested) to the Covered Officer had the financial results been properly reported would have been lower than the amount actually paid (or, in the case of equity-based compensation, vested). In the case of equity awards that vested based on the achievement of financial results that were subsequently reduced, the Board also may seek to recover gains from the sale or disposition of vested shares (including shares purchased upon the exercise of options that vested based on the achievement of financial results). In addition, the Board may to the extent it deems appropriate determine to cancel outstanding equity awards where the Board or the Compensation Committee took into account the financial performance of the Company in granting such awards and the financial results were subsequently reduced due to such a Restatement.
