Descriptions of transactions involving the issue, sale, pledge, guarantee, or assumption of system securities, including short-term borrowings, have been filed pursuant to Rule 24, with the exception of certain NU guarantees incident to the procurement of surety bonds and the issue of certain securities, as described below.

In the ordinary course of their businesses, the NU subsidiary companies are required to provide surety or performance bonds.

As of December 31, 2004, NU had $10.9 million of such guarantees outstanding. The highest amount outstanding during 2004 was $40.8 million on January 31, 2004.

At various times from January 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004, Select Energy has issued debt to NU in reliance on Rule 52.

The interest rate matched the interest rate charged to NU under its revolving credit facility at the time of the issuance.

ITEM 6. OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS (Continued)

Part III. The information provided herein is applicable to all system companies, except as indicated otherwise.

(a) The compensation of Trustees, Directors, and Executive Officers of system companies:

i. Compensation of NU Trustees

Each Trustee who is not an employee of Northeast Utilities or its subsidiaries receives an annual retainer. The Lead Trustee and the Chairs of the Audit, Compensation, Corporate Affairs, Corporate Governance and Finance Committees receive additional annual retainers. All retainers are payable quarterly. The following table sets forth the amounts of the annual retainers for 2004 and 2005:

2004 2005
Trustees $ 25,000 $ 25,000
Lead Trustee $ 50,000 $ 50,000
Audit Committee $ 10,000 $ 20,000
Compensation
Committee $ 5,000 $ 15,000
Corporate
Affairs Committee $ 4,000 $ 7,500
Corporate
Governance Committee $ 4,000 $ 7,500
Finance Committee $ 4,000 $ 7,500

Beginning on January 1, 2005, one-half of the value of the payments to the Chairs of the Audit and Compensation Committees is payable in the form of NU Common Shares.

A non-employee Trustee receives $1,500 and $1,250 ($1,000 in 2004) for each meeting attended of the Board or its Committees, respectively, or, for participation in a meeting by conference telephone, $1,000 for a Board meeting and $850 ($675 in 2004) for a Committee meeting. However, members of the Audit Committee will receive $1,250 for certain meetings held by conference telephone during 2005.

A non-employee Trustee who is asked by either the Board of Trustees or the Chairman of the Board to perform extra Board-related services in the interest of the Northeast Utilities System may receive additional compensation of $750 per half-day plus necessary expenses. When the spouses of Trustees are asked to attend functions of the Board, the Company’s pays for the travel-related expenses of the spouses that attend such functions. The payment of a Trustee’s spousal expenses is considered imputed income to the individual Trustee. In addition, the Company makes a gross-up payment to each such Trustee to cover the tax liability for the imputed income associated with the spousal expenses. The cumulative amount of such payments for 2004 was approximately $37,308.

In December 2003 the Board elected Dr. Kennan as interim Chairman of the Board and formed a Search Committee following Mr. Morris’s announced retirement. In January 2004, the Compensation Committee approved compensation for the interim Chairman of the Board and for members of the Search Committee. During her tenure as interim Chairman of the Board, which ended upon the election of Mr. Shivery as a Trustee and as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer on March 29, 2004, Dr. Kennan was paid $40,000 per month in lieu of all retainers and meeting fees, and Dr. Kennan received $20,000 additional compensation for extra services performed during December 2003. Members of the Search Committee (except for Dr. Kennan) received a one-time payment of $10,000, and the Chair of the Search Committee (Mr. Cordes) received a one-time payment of $20,000, in lieu of normal meeting fees for all meetings of the Search Committee held during the search for a new chief executive officer for the Company.

Under the terms of the Northeast Utilities Incentive Plan, each non-employee Trustee is also eligible for stock-based grants. In January 2004, Dr. Kennan was granted 5,000 restricted share units and each other non-employee Trustee was granted 3,000 restricted share units under the Incentive Plan. Subject to any deferral election in effect, half of these units were paid as newly-issued shares in January 2005 and half will be paid as newly-issued shares in January 2009.

In January 2005, each non-employee Trustee was granted 3,000 restricted share units under the Incentive Plan. If a Trustee leaves the Board prior to January 10, 2006, such Trustee will forfeit a pro rata portion of these units. Absent such a forfeiture, and subject to any deferral election in effect, half of these units will be paid as newly-issued shares in January 2006 and half will be paid as newly-issued shares in January 2010, whether or not such individual is then a Trustee.

30

Prior to the beginning of each calendar year, non-employee Trustees may irrevocably elect to have all or any portion of their retainers and fees paid in the form of common shares of Northeast Utilities. Pursuant to the Northeast Utilities Deferred Compensation Plan for Trustees, each Trustee may also irrevocably elect to defer receipt of some or all cash and/or share compensation.

ii. Compensation of Subsidiary Directors

Employees serving as Directors of CL&P, PSNH and WMECO receive no special compensation on account of such service. CL&P, PSNH and WMECO had no non-employee Directors during 2003 or 2004.

iii. Compensation of Executive Officers

The following tables present the cash and non-cash compensation received by the Chief Executive Officer and the next four highest paid executive officers of NU, CL&P, PSNH, and WMECO during 2004, in accordance with rules of the SEC:

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Trustees and certain officers of Northeast Utilities and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of the outstanding common shares of Northeast Utilities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange. Based on such reports, or written representations that no Form 5 was required, Northeast Utilities believes that for the year ended December 31, 2004, all such reporting requirements were complied with in a timely manner.

(c) Their contracts and transactions with system companies:

Northeast Utilities Service Company (NUSCO) has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Butler, Forsgren, Olivier and Shivery and Mrs. Grisé. The agreements are binding on Northeast Utilities and, except for Mr. Shivery’s agreement, on certain majority-owned subsidiaries of Northeast Utilities.

Each agreement obligates the officer to perform such duties as may be directed by the NUSCO Board of Directors or the Northeast Utilities Board of Trustees, protect the Company’s confidential information, and refrain, while employed by the Company and for a period of time thereafter, from competing with the Company in a specified geographic area. Each agreement provides that the officer’s base salary will not be reduced below certain levels without the consent of the officer, and that the officer will participate in specified benefits under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan or other supplemental retirement programs (see “Pension Benefits” below) and/or in certain executive incentive programs at specified incentive opportunity levels.

Each agreement provides for a specified employment term and for automatic one-year extensions of the employment term unless at least six months’ notice of non-renewal is given by either party. The employment term may also be ended by the Company for “cause," as defined, at any time (in which case certain supplemental retirement benefits may be forfeited), or by the officer on thirty days’ prior written notice for any reason. Absent “cause," the Company may remove the officer from his or her position on sixty days’ prior written notice, but in the event the officer is so removed and signs a release of all claims against the Company, the officer will receive two years’ base salary and annual incentive payments, specified employee welfare and pension benefits, and vesting of specified long-term incentive compensation.

Under the terms of the agreements, upon any termination of employment following a change of control, as defined, between (a) the earlier of the date shareholders approve a change of control transaction or a change of control transaction occurs and (b) the earlier of the date, if any, on which the Board of Trustees abandons the transaction or the date two years following the change of control, if the officer signs a release of all claims against the Company, the officer will be entitled to certain payments including a multiple (not to

36

exceed three) of “base compensation,” as defined, annual incentive payments, specified employee welfare and pension benefits, and vesting of specified long-term incentive compensation. Certain of the change of control provisions may be modified by the Board of Trustees prior to a change of control, on at least two years’ notice to the affected officer(s).

Besides the terms described above, Mr. Shivery’s agreement provides for a specified initial salary, cash and stock options upon employment, a special incentive program and special retirement benefits, and Mr. Forsgren’s agreement provides for special retirement benefits. See “Pension Benefits," below, for further description of these provisions. The agreements of Mr. Forsgren and Mrs. Grisé were supplemented during 2001 to provide for a deferred payment of $520,000 and $500,000, respectively, which payments vested and were paid in even installments (adjusted to reflect investment performance) on June 28, 2002, 2003 and 2004. Letter agreements reflecting the terms of employment for Messrs. Boguslawski, Olivier and Schivley provide for specified initial salary, cash, stock options and/or other benefits upon employment. Messrs. Boguslawski, Olivier and Schivley participate in the Special Severance Program for Officers of Northeast Utilities System Companies. Upon his retirement in January 2005, Mr. Schivley received severance in the amount of $336,000.

The descriptions of the various agreements set forth above are for purpose of disclosure in accordance with the proxy and other disclosure rules of the SEC and shall not be controlling on any party; the actual terms of the agreements themselves determine the rights and obligations of the parties.

discussion of compensation in Part III, Section (a) above, see the following: |

PENSION BENEFITS

The tables on the following page show the estimated annual retirement benefits payable to an executive officer of Northeast Utilities upon retirement, assuming that retirement occurs at age 65 and that the officer is at that time not only eligible for a pension benefit under the Northeast Utilities Service Company Retirement Plan (the Retirement Plan) but also eligible for either the make-whole benefit or the make-whole benefit plus the target benefit under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for Officers of Northeast Utilities System Companies (the Supplemental Plan). The Supplemental Plan is a non-qualified pension plan providing supplemental retirement income to system officers. The make-whole benefit under the Supplemental Plan, available to all officers, makes up for benefits lost through application of certain tax code limitations on the benefits that may be provided under the Retirement Plan, and includes as “compensation” awards under the executive incentive plans and deferred compensation (as earned). The target benefit further supplements these benefits and is available to officers at the Senior Vice President level and higher who are selected by the Board of Trustees to participate in the target benefit and who remain in the employ of Northeast Utilities companies until at least age 60 (unless the Board of Trustees sets an earlier age).

Messrs. Shivery and Butler and Mrs. Grisé are currently eligible for a make-whole plus a target benefit and Mr. Forsgren, having retired at the end of 2004,is currently receiving such benefit. Messrs. Boguslawski, Olivier and Long and Mrs. Kuhlman are eligible for the make-whole benefit but not the target benefit. Mr. Schivley was not eligible to participate in the Supplemental Plan but he did participate in the Retirement Plan until his retirement. The amount of his annual compensation covered by the Retirement Plan was limited by the IRS to $205,000 for 2004.

Mr. Shivery’s Employment Agreement provides for a special retirement benefit, following completion of five years of service with the Company (2007), consisting of the excess over benefits otherwise payable from the Retirement Plan and the Supplemental Plan needed to give him the equivalent of fully-vested benefits under the Retirement Plan and the Supplemental Plan calculated by adding three additional years to his actual service and utilizing an early commencement reduction factor of 2 percent per year for each year younger than age 65 at commencement, if better than the factors then in use under the Retirement Plan.

Mr. Forsgren’s Employment Agreement provides for supplemental pension benefits based on crediting additional service for the make-whole plus target benefit under the Supplemental Plan. Based on his age and service at retirement, Mr. Forsgren is eligible for a make-whole plus target benefit based on crediting 11.9 extra years of service, unreduced for early commencement. Mr. Forsgren’s employment agreement also provides for payments equal to 25 percent of final average compensation (not to exceed 170 percent of highest average base compensation received in any 36 month period) for up to 15 years following retirement, reduced by four percentage points for each year that his age is less than 65 years at retirement. Because Mr. Forsgren retired at the end of 2004 at the

37

age of 58 years, 4 months, the amount of the supplemental 15-year annuity benefit provided will equal 18.3% of his final average compensation, which includes an average incentive of 70% of base pay. Also, as a result of his retirement, Mr. Forsgren’s 2003 restricted shares issued under the Long-Term Incentive Program were vested on a pro rata basis, so that 6,398 restricted shares with a value of $120,602 as of December 31, 2004, became immediately vested.

The terms of Mr. Olivier’s employment provide for certain supplemental pension benefits in lieu of a make-whole benefit if certain eligibility requirements are met, in order to provide a benefit similar to that provided by his previous employer. If Mr. Olivier remains in continuous employment with the Company until September 10, 2011 (or earlier with the Company’s permission), he will be eligible for a special benefit, subject to reduction for termination prior to age 65, of three percent of Final Average Compensation for each of his first 15 years of service since September 10, 2001 plus one percent of Final Average Compensation for each of the second 15 years of service. Alternatively, if he does not voluntarily terminate his employment with the Company prior to his 60th birthday, or upon earlier termination upon a Change of Control, as defined in the Special Severance Program, he may receive upon retirement a lump sum payment of $2,050,000 in lieu of the make-whole benefit and the benefit described in the preceding sentence. These supplemental pension benefits will be offset by the value of any benefits he receives from the Retirement Plan.

Mr. Schivley’s employment agreement provides that upon retirement he will be entitled to receive a special retirement benefit calculated by applying the benefit formula of the CMS Energy / Consumers Energy Company (CMS) Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan as was in effect upon his date of hire by the Northeast Utilities System (the Company) to all compensation earned from the Company and to all service rendered to the Company and CMS; this benefit will be offset by benefits from the Retirement Plan and CMS.

The benefits presented in the tables above are based on a straight life annuity beginning at age 65 and do not take into account any reduction for joint and survivorship annuity payments. Final average compensation for purposes of calculating the target benefit is the highest average annual compensation of the participant during any 36 consecutive months compensation was earned. Final average compensation for purposes of calculating the make-whole benefit is the highest average annual compensation of the participant during any 60 consecutive months compensation was earned. Compensation for these benefits includes the annual salary and bonus shown in the Summary Compensation Table and, for the make-whole benefit for officers hired before November 2001, and for the target benefit for officers who were hired before November 2001 and eligible for the target benefit prior to October 2003, an amount that represents the annual value of target long term incentive compensation for 2001. Compensation for purposes of these benefits does not include employer matching contributions under the 401k Plan. In the event that an officer’s employment terminates because of disability, the retirement benefits shown above would be offset by the amount of any disability benefits payable to the recipient that are attributable to contributions made by Northeast Utilities and its subsidiaries under long term disability plans and policies.

The compensation covered by the Supplemental Plan in 2004 for Mr. Shivery, Mr. Forsgren, Mrs. Grisé, Mr. Butler, Mr. Boguslawski, Mr. Olivier, Mr. Long and Mrs. Kuhlman was $999,380, $861,803, $877,038, $379,931, $291,692, $516,741, $295,236 and $274,097, respectively.

As of December 31, 2004, the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table had attained the following years of credited service for purposes of the Supplemental Plan: Mr. Shivery - 2, Mr. Forsgren - 8, Mrs. Grisé - 24, Mr. Butler - 8, Mr. Boguslawski - 27, Mr. Olivier - 5, Mr. Long - 29 and Mrs. Kuhlman - 23. Mr. Schivley had 25 years of service for purpose of his special retirement benefit and Mr. Forsgren had 20 years of service for purposes of his supplemental pension benefit.

(f) Their rights to indemnity:

No disclosures were made in any system company’s most recent proxy statement or annual report on Form 10-K with respect to the rights to indemnity of Trustees, Directors or executive officers.
