Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Represents the portions of previous awards of restricted stock rights that vested effective as of March 4, March 5, and March 6, 2016.
(2)	Represents shares withheld by PNM Resources, Inc. to satisfy the tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting of the restricted stock rights referenced in (1) above. The company utilizes a modified "share withholding" approach in connection with settling awards of restricted stock rights upon vesting, in which it (i) withholds (in cash) the amount required to satisfy the tax withholding obligations and remits such amount to the relevant tax authorities, and (ii) directs a designated broker to purchase on the open market the number of shares of the company's common stock that can be acquired with the after-tax value of the vested restricted stock rights award at the prevailing market price. Only these "net shares" are delivered to the recipient of the award.
(3)	Price represents a weighted average fill price ranging from 32.30 to 32.33.
(4)	Each restricted stock right represents a contingent right to receive one share of PNM Resources, Inc. common stock.
(5)	The restricted stock units vest in three equal annual installments. Vested shares will be delivered to the reporting person on the applicable vesting dates (or, if the company is in a blackout period under its insider trading policy on any vesting date, at a later date after such blackout period ends).

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
