On December 2, 2009, the Organization and Compensation Committee of the DTE Energy Company (“Company”) Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the DTE Energy Company Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan (Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2005) (the “ESRP”). The ESRP provides additional retirement benefits to Company executives beyond the benefits provided by the Company’s qualified retirement plan. Under the terms of the amendment, an executive participant’s benefits accrued after December 31, 2009 under the ESRP would be forfeited if the executive violates any covenant pursuant to the Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement or the Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement between the Company and the executive participants expected to be entered into in 2010. The amendment to the ESRP is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.
