| §   | Custom Investment Corporation (“Custom”), formed for the purpose of holding passive investments, including the stock of our subsidiaries that invest in regulated business opportunities.  On October 13, 2003, we transferred our shares of Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation (“VYNPC”) to Custom.  The transfer to Custom does not affect our rights and obligations related to VYNPC.  On December 30, 2009, Custom transferred the VYNPC shares back to us.  We plan to dissolve Custom in 2010. |

| §   | In 2007, we dissolved our wholly owned subsidiary Connecticut Valley Electric Company, Inc. (“Connecticut Valley”), which had been incorporated under the laws of New Hampshire on December 9, 1948.

Its remaining assets were nominal. |

| §   | We own 58.85 percent of the common stock of VYNPC, which was initially formed by a group of New England utilities to build and operate a nuclear-powered generating plant in Vernon, Vermont.  On July 31, 2002, the plant was sold to Entergy Nuclear Vermont Yankee, LLC (“Entergy-Vermont Yankee”).  The sale agreement included a purchased power contract between VYNPC and Entergy-Vermont Yankee.  Under the purchased power contract, VYNPC pays Entergy-Vermont Yankee for generation at fixed rates, and in turn, bills the purchased power contract charges from Entergy-Vermont Yankee with certain residual costs of service through a FERC tariff to us and the other Vermont Yankee sponsors.  Although we own a majority of the shares of VYNPC, our ability to exercise control is effectively restricted by the purchased power contract, the sponsor agreement among the group of New England utilities that formed VYNPC and the composition of the board of directors under which it operates. |

| §   | Our corporate credit rating was returned to investment grade.  In December 2009, Moody’s Investors Service issued us a corporate credit rating of Baa3, which is investment grade.  Subsequently, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services withdrew, at our request, its rating of us which had been BB+ since May 2005. |

| §   | In December 2009 we made a $20.8 million investment in Transco.  This increased our equity investment in Transco to $114.7 million at December 31, 2009.  See Liquidity, Capital Resources and Commitments. |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | In December 2009, we obtained a 364-day, $15 million revolving credit facility with a bank in addition to an existing $40 million revolving credit facility with a different bank. |

| §   | Retail sales decreased $5.5 million resulting from lower sales volume, partly offset by higher average retail rates and a higher average price due to customer sales mix.  Sales volume decreased due to lower usage by commercial and industrial customers resulting from economic conditions. |
|--------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Resale sales increased $5.6 million as a result of higher sales volume due to lower retail sales volume and increased output from power producers.  Average prices for forward sales increased while prices for hourly sales decreased. |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | In 2009, the provision for rate refund is related to over-collections of $1.7 million of power, production and transmission costs as defined by the power cost adjustment clause of our alternative regulation plan. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other operating revenues increased $1.2 mostly from sales of additional transmission capacity from our share of Phase I/II transmission facility rights, an increase in wholesale transmission rates and the sale of renewable energy credits.  We began selling transmission capacity in April 2007, and we have the ability to restrict the amount of capacity assigned to the purchasers based on certain conditions. |
|--------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Retail sales increased $1.3 million resulting from a 2.3 percent rate increase effective February 1, 2008 and a higher average price due to customer sales mix.  Retail sales volume was lower in 2008 largely due to lower average usage caused by milder weather, a slowing economy and energy conservation. |
|--------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Resale sales increased $9.7 million resulting from higher average prices and an increase in excess power available for resale due to lower retail sales volume, higher output from our hydro facilities and Independent Power Producers and less lost output from unplanned outages at Vermont Yankee. |
|--------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | The provision for rate refund, which is a reduction in operating revenues, is related to amounts that were included in retail rates in 2007 and January 2008 that were to be refunded to customers.  The provision for refund ended with new retail rates effective February 1, 2008 that reflect the customer refund. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other operating revenues increased $1.6 million due to sales of transmission rights and increased revenue from storm restoration performed for other utilities, partially offset by a provision for refund to retail customers. |

| §   | Purchased power costs under long-term contracts increased $1.9 million in 2009, due primarily to higher VYNPC output and because there were no plant refueling outages in 2009.  This was primarily offset by decreased purchases from IPPs due to the November 2008 expiration of one contract, and lower prices on all market-based purchases. |
|--------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other purchases decreased $9.7 million in 2009 because more power was available from long-term contract sources. |
|--------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

----

| §   | Nuclear decommissioning costs decreased $0.8 million in 2009 and are associated with our ownership interests in Maine Yankee, Connecticut Yankee and Yankee Atomic.  These costs are based on FERC-approved tariffs.  The decrease is largely due to lower revenue requirements for Connecticut Yankee and Maine Yankee. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other costs increased $1.1 million. These Other costs are amortizations and deferrals based on PSB-approved regulatory accounting, and include net accounting deferrals and amortizations for incremental energy costs related to Millstone Unit #3 scheduled refueling outages and deferrals for our share of nuclear insurance refunds received by VYNPC. |
|--------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Purchased power costs under long-term contracts increased $4.4 million in 2008, due primarily to increased purchases from IPPs at higher prices and from increased Vermont Yankee plant output we purchase at favorable rates under the PPA.  The Vermont Yankee plant operated at nearly full capacity in 2008 with the exception of a few small derates and the planned refueling outage in the fourth quarter.  These increases were offset by fewer purchases from Hydro-Quebec due to a 5 percent decrease in the annual load factor. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Other purchases increased $0.9 million in 2008 resulting from higher average prices for replacement energy purchased during the Vermont Yankee refueling outage and derate described above. |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| §   | Nuclear decommissioning costs decreased $0.5 million in 2008 and are associated with our ownership interests in Maine Yankee, Connecticut Yankee and Yankee Atomic.  These costs are based on FERC-approved tariffs.  The decrease is largely due to lower revenue requirements for Connecticut Yankee and Maine Yankee. |

| (a)   | Under the terms of the Hydro-Quebec contract, there is a defined energy rate that escalates at the general inflation rate based on the U.S. Gross National Product Implicit Price Deflator (“GNPIPD”) and capacity rates are constant with the potential for small reductions if interest rates decrease below average values set in prior years. |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (b)   | Under the terms of the contract with VYNPC the energy price generally ranges from 3.9 cents to 4.5 cents per kilowatt-hour through 2012.  Effective November 2005, the contract prices are subject to a “low-market adjuster” mechanism. |
