The Board of Directors of Quanta has appointed Earl C. Austin, Jr. as

October 1, 2009. Mr. Austin will report directly to James F. O'Neil III, the
President and Chief Operating Officer of Quanta. Mr. Austin will be responsible
for overseeing Quanta's operations and strategic initiatives across the natural
gas and transmission and distribution pipeline industries.
Mr. Austin, age 39, has been with Quanta for over eight years, serving since
