| §   | Retail sales increased $4.2 million in the second quarter and $6.2 million in the first six months resulting primarily from a 5.58 percent base rate increase effective Jan. 1, 2010 and the recovery of 2008 major storm costs through the ESAM, partly offset by lower customer usage, mostly due to warmer winter weather in 2010. |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Resale sales decreased $10.1 million in the second quarter and $12.7 million in the first six months mostly due to lower 2010 contract prices associated with the sale of our excess energy and a decrease in volumes sold due to the scheduled refueling outages at the Vermont Yankee plant and Millstone Unit #3. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | The provision for rate refund is related to over- or under-collections of power, production and transmission costs as defined by the power cost adjustment clause of our alternative regulation plan.  The increase in the first six months included the favorable impact of $0.5 million of net deferrals in 2010 vs. $1.1 million of net deferrals in 2009 and the amounts returned to customers increased to $1.8 million in 2010 vs. none in 2009. |
|--------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other operating revenues increased $0.7 million in the first six months mostly from higher levels of mutual aid to other utilities and the sale of renewable energy credits. |

| §   | Purchased power costs under long-term contracts decreased $5.5 million in the second quarter and $5 million in the first six months of 2010, due primarily to lower output at the Vermont Yankee plant related to a scheduled refueling outage and lower capacity costs from Hydro-Quebec offset by an increase in purchases from Independent Power Producers. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other purchases increased $4.7 million in the second quarter and first six months due to the purchase of replacement power for the scheduled refueling outages at Vermont Yankee and Millstone Unit #3. |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Nuclear decommissioning costs are associated with our ownership interests in Maine Yankee, Connecticut Yankee and Yankee Atomic.  These costs are based on FERC-approved tariffs. |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other costs decreased $0.6 million in the second quarter and $0.9 million in the first six months. These Other costs are amortizations and deferrals based on PSB-approved regulatory accounting, including those for incremental energy costs related to Millstone Unit #3 scheduled refueling outages and deferrals for our share of nuclear insurance refunds received by VYNPC.  There were no nuclear insurance refunds in the second quarter of 2010. |
