Explanation of Responses:

1. FirstEnergy Corp.'s 401(k) Savings Plan includes a unitized fund invested in FirstEnergy Corp. stock, in which the reporting person may invest, and includes dividend reinvestment and company match features. The number of shares reported as indirectly held in FirstEnergy Corp.'s 401(k) Savings Plan in this row is an estimate of the number of shares of FirstEnergy Corp.'s common stock held in the unitized stock fund and allocated to the reporting person's account as of Dec 31, 2022.

2. Represents the vesting of the 15PSUS20 award. The award vested on March 1, 2023. The shares coded "F" were automatically withheld to cover tax obligations associated with the payout. Amounts also include dividend reinvestments.

3. 1 for 1. The 15PSUS20 award was previously granted for $0.00 under the FirstEnergy Corp. 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan.

4. Balance includes shares acquired through dividend reinvestments.

5. This transaction represents the deferral of the 15PSUS20 award. As a result, the reporting person is reporting the disposition of common stock in exchange for an equal number of shares of phantom stock described above.

6. 1 for 1

7. This holding reflects phantom stock payable in cash upon retirement or other termination of employment under the FirstEnergy Corp. Amended and Restated Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. Each share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of common stock.
