Explanation of Responses:

Id Content
F1 Each share of phantom stock represents the right to receive the cash value of one share of common stock.
F2 Shares of phantom stock become payable in accordance with the reporting person's distribution elections made pursuant to the Xcel Energy Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Subject to certain timing restrictions and other limitations based on the source of the amount deferred, the reporting person may generally transfer some or all of the balance in the Plan's Company stock account into an alternative Plan investment account.
F3 The number of shares of phantom stock reflects both additional shares credited upon the deemed reinvestment of dividend equivalents as reported in the most recent report from the Plan administrator, as well as minor adjustments to the number of phantom shares credited to the reporting person's Company stock account due to the unitized nature of the Plan's Company stock fund.
