NATIONAL GRID GROUP PLC The following information is reproduced from the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended March 31, 2002. Directors' Remuneration Composition and role of the Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee consists exclusively of independent Non-executive Directors. It is chaired by Bob Faircloth, and its other members are John Grant and Richard Reynolds. The Remuneration Committee is responsible for determining all aspects of Executive Directors' compensation, drawing on advice from both external independent remuneration consultants (New Bridge Street Consultants and Towers Perrin) and internal expertise. The Non-executive Chairman and the Group Chief Executive are invited to attend meetings to provide strategic advice on the impact of remuneration policies, but neither participate in any discussion on their own remuneration. The Board has accepted all of the Remuneration Committee's recommendations made throughout the year. The Remuneration Committee has decided, with the approval of the Board, to put the Remuneration Committee Statement to a shareholder vote at the Annual General Meeting. At the Extraordinary General Meeting on 23 July 2002 shareholders will be asked to approve a new Performance Share Plan which may form part of National Grid Transco's senior level remuneration strategy going forwards. The new Plan, combined with National Grid's existing incentive plans, will provide the new Remuneration Committee with the flexibility to incentivise Executive Directors and other senior executives to deliver exceptional company results through a range of stretching performance-related plans. Further details of the proposed National Grid Lattice Performance Share Plan 2002 are included in the Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting. Remuneration policy The Remuneration Committee designs remuneration packages with the aim of attracting, motivating and retaining high-calibre Directors who will deliver success for shareholders and high levels of customer service, safety and environmental standards while having due regard to the markets in which the Group operates. Executive Directors' remuneration Remuneration packages for Executive Directors consist of the following elements: Base salary Base salaries are reviewed annually taking account of the median market position (against businesses of a similar size and complexity) and business and personal performance. Account is also taken of salary increases and employment conditions across the Group. Incentives The Remuneration Committee recognises the importance of linking rewards to business and personal performance and considers that the following incentive arrangements provide a balance between short and long term incentives for National Grid: · annual bonus: a non-pensionable annual cash bonus of up to a maximum of 60 per cent of base salary can be paid to UK-based Executive Directors for the achievement of demanding financial, personal and quality of service targets. Rick Sergel and William Davis have a lower annual cash bonus maximum payment of 50 per cent of salary. Rick Sergel also participates in the National Grid USA Goals Program, an all-employee bonus plan that can pay up to 4.5 per cent of base salary on the achievement of certain earnings and performance targets. In line with US market practice, Rick Sergel's and William Davis' cash bonuses are pensionable. · share matching plan: UK-based Executive Directors can invest a pre-determined part of any bonus in National Grid shares in return for receiving a matching award under this plan. Currently, UK-based Executive Directors are required to invest one-third of any annual cash bonus into this plan. At the end of three years (provided the Director is still employed and has retained the shares purchased from bonus) additional shares equal in number to the pre-tax value of the invested shares will be released to the individual. The participant will also receive a cash payment equal to the dividends that have been paid on the shares over the three year holding period. US executives, including Rick Sergel and William Davis, participate in this plan on a slightly different basis, in that an award calculated as a proportion of their cash annual bonus (60 per cent in the case of Rick Sergel and William Davis) is paid under this plan in National Grid shares or American Depositary Shares (ADSs) subject to a minimum three-year vesting period. For both UK and US based Directors, the combination of annual cash bonus payments and deferred Share Match awards is an effective annual bonus maximum payment of 80 per cent of base salary. · executive share options: the National Grid Executive Share Option Plan 2002 permits market value executive share options to be granted to a maximum value of 3 times base salary per annum. Grants of a greater value may be made in exceptional circumstances such as the appointment of a new Executive Director. At this time, the Remuneration Committee considers that the maximum market value of shares which will normally be placed under option to any UK-based individual in any 12 month period will be 1.5 times the individual's base salary. The exercise of executive share options granted during the year is subject to National Grid's total shareholder return (TSR) relative to that of a group of approximately 20 UK and US utility companies, over a period of at least three years. Options up to the value of an individual's base salary become exercisable in full if National Grid's TSR is at least median. Options in excess of one times base salary are exercisable on a sliding scale and are only exercisable in full if National Grid's TSR is in the upper quartile of the comparator group. If not fully satisfied on the third anniversary, the condition may be retested, from the same base, on the fourth and fifth anniversaries of grant. · Sharesave: Executive Directors resident in the UK are eligible to participate in all-employee Sharesave schemes (subject to eligibility based on service). · US Incentive Thrift Plan: Rick Sergel and William Davis participate in a tax-advantaged savings plan (commonly referred to as a 401(k) plan) provided for employees of National Grid USA. Employees who contribute 6 per cent or more of their base salary are provided with an employer matching contribution based upon fixed formulae. The formulae vary between certain employee groups. Rick Sergel is eligible to receive an employer match of 5 per cent of his base salary and William Davis is eligible to receive an employer match of 3 per cent of his base salary under the plan. There are Federal limits on the amount of pre-tax contributions an employee can make into the plan as well as the amount of compensation that can be used to calculate benefits under the plan. Pensions UK-based Executive Directors are members of the National Grid section of the Electricity Supply Pension Scheme (ESPS), to which they currently contribute 3 per cent of base salary per annum up to the Inland Revenue limits. The normal employee contribution is 6 per cent of salary but all employees currently benefit from a reduction in contributions. The Pension Scheme's main features in respect of Executive Directors are: normal retirement at age 60; pension at normal retirement age of two-thirds final salary subject to completion of 20 years' service (although Directors may retire early from age 55 with a reduction in pension); death-in-service payment of four times pensionable salary; spouse's pension of two-thirds Director's pension on death; discretionary payment of dependant's pension if there is no surviving spouse; pension increased by inflation by up to 5 per cent per annum and, for Directors affected by the 'earnings cap', the Company may provide benefits on salary above the cap on a partially funded basis. Rick Sergel and William Davis participate in a qualified pension plan and an executive supplemental retirement plan provided through National Grid USA. These plans are non-contributory defined benefit arrangements. Rick Sergel's benefit is calculated using formulae based upon years of service and highest average compensation over five consecutive years. William Davis's benefit is under a cash balance arrangement that credits employer contributions during each year of employment in an amount based upon service time and compensation. In addition, cash balances receive annual earnings credits. William Davis is entitled to a minimum benefit which is calculated using a formula based upon years of service and highest average compensation over five consecutive years. In line with many US plans, the calculation of benefits under the arrangements applicable to Rick Sergel and William Davis generally take into account salary, bonuses and incentive share awards, but not share options. Normal retirement age is 65. Pursuant to the executive supplemental plan, however, unreduced benefits may be payable at age 55. The plans also provide for a spouse's pension, the value of which is based upon the participant's benefit at death. Benefits under these arrangements do not increase after commencement upon retirement. Directors' remuneration The remuneration of individual Directors for the year ended 31 March 2002 is set out below: Base Salary Annual Benefits Total 2000/01 and fees Bonus1 £000 emoluments £000 £000 £000 excluding pension) 2001/02 £000 Chairman James Ross 143 - 22 165 120 (Non-executive Director) Executive Directors Roger Urwin 500 267 27 794 436 Edward Astle2 181 94 9 284 - Stephen Box 350 155 27 532 455 William Davis3 83 54 2 139 - Wob Gerrestsen4 - - - - 259 Steven Holliday5 270 146 28 444 1 David Jones6 - 35 - 35 665 Rick Sergel 486 224 18 728 620 Non-executive Directors Bob Faircloth 42 - - 42 30 John Grant 35 - - 35 30 Bonnie Hill3 4 - - 4 - Paul Joskow 57 - - 57 45 Richard Reynolds 55 - - 55 50 Total 2,206 975 133 3,314 2,711 1 Total cash bonus paid includes amounts invested by Directors in the Share Match Scheme and in the case of Stephen Box, an ex-gratia payment of £1,107 in respect of dividends on Matching Shares.

Resigned from the Board on 31 March 2001. During the year David Jones received ex-gratia payments of £35,353 in respect of dividends on Matching Shares exercised. The total remuneration of Roger Urwin, the highest-paid Director during the year, was £794,195 (2001: David Jones, £665,440). Pension benefits earned by individual Executive Directors in 2001/02 were as follows: ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------------------------- Increase to accrued pension Age at Directors' during year Accrued pension 31 March Contributions (net of as at 31 March 2002 during year inflation) 2002(1) 2001 £000 £000 £000 £000 ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------------------------- ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- Roger Urwin 56 15 137 300 160 ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- Edward Astle2 48 5 6 6 - ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- Stephen Box 51 11 17 54 36 ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- William Davis3 60 - - 458 - ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- Steven Holliday 45 8 9 9 - ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- Rick Sergel4 52 - 77 347 270 ----------------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- 1 Accrued pension represents the pension that would be paid annually at age 60 if the Director resigned on 31 March 2002. 2 Edward Astle was appointed to the Board in September 2001. 3 William Davis was appointed to the Board in February 2002. As part of the Niagara Mohawk acquisition, a lump sum of £6,265,202 was paid into the Niagara Mohawk's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, any future pension benefits payable by National Grid shall be offset by the annuity value of this lump sum payment. 4. Rick Sergel's entitlement to accrued pension as at 31 March 2001 was previously understated as £229,234. This error was due to not correctly factoring in pensionable bonus payments. Non-cash benefits The Company provides competitive benefits such as a fully expensed car or cash alternative in lieu of car, chauffeur, private medical insurance, life assurance and long term ill-health insurance to the Executive Directors. US Executive Directors also receive financial counselling. Taxable benefits, such as hotel expenses, have also been incurred by certain Executive Diretors directly in relation to the relocation of the Group's head office. Service contracts Service contracts for Executive Directors are set at one year's notice. The application of longer contract periods at appointment, reducing after an initial period, is considered appropriate by the Board to recruit and retain key executives. In this regard, the initial periods of Rick Sergel's, Steven Holliday's and Edward Astle's contracts were for fixed periods of three, two and two years respectively. These terms reduce to one year rolling from March 2002 for Rick Sergel and Steven Holliday, and from September 2002 for Edward Astle. William Davis' contract is for a fixed period of two years. Share ownership guidelines Executive Directors are encouraged to build up and retain a shareholding of one times annual base salary and that, as a minimum, this should be achieved by retaining 50 per cent of the after tax gain on any options exercised through the executive share plans. Non-executive Directors' remuneration Non-executive Directors receive an annual fee of £30,000 with an additional £5,000 payable for committee chairmanship. Richard Reynolds receives a fee of £25,000 in respect of additional duties as a member of the Supervisory Board of Intelig and Paul Joskow receives a fee of $30,000 in respect of strategic advice he provides on regulatory issues to National Grid USA. A fee of £1,000 is paid for each Board meeting that Non-executive Directors attend outside of their country of residence. The Non-executive Chairman receives an annual fee of £175,000. Non-executive fees are determined by the Board, or by a Committee authorised by the Board, subject to the limits applied by National Grid's Articles of Association. Directors' interests in share options Directors' interests in share options over the ordinary shares of National Grid are as follows: ------------------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------------------- Options Options Options Exercise held at 1 exercised granted Options price per April 2001 during the during the held at 31 share year year March 2002 (pence) Normal Exercise period ------------------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------------------- ------------------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Roger Urwin Executive 169,340 169,340 280.50 Sep 2000 Sep 2007 91,656 -

The benefits listed in the pension table are not subject to deduction for Social Security and are shown without any joint and survivor benefits. If the participant elected at age 65 a 100 percent joint and survivor benefit with a spouse of the same age, the benefit shown would be reduced by approximately 16 percent. National Grid USA companies contribute the full cost of post-retirement health benefits for senior executives. PAYMENTS UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT National Grid USA is a party to Change in Control Agreements with Mr. Cochrane, Mr. Jesanis, and Ms. LaFleur dated March 1, 1998; and one with Mr. Flynn dated November 1, 1998, all of which remain in effect for 36 months beyond the month in which a (1) Change in Control of NEES (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) or (2) Major Transaction (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) occurs. In accordance with the terms of the Change in Control Agreements, if the Executive's employment is terminated without cause by the Company or for Good Reason (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) by the Executive within 36 months following the event described in clause (1) or (2) National Grid USA will provide the Executive with the severance payments and benefits described below. The shareholder approval of the merger agreement with National Grid Group plc (May 1999) constituted a Major Transaction and the merger with National Grid Group plc on March 22, 2000 constituted a Change in Control. Accordingly, in the event the Executive's employment is terminated without cause by the Company or for Good Reason by the Executive within 36 months following the month in which the Major Transaction or Change in Control occurred, the Executive will be entitled to receive (in addition to any compensation and benefits payable to the Executive through the Executive's Date of Termination (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) according to the terms of said plans and any normal post-term compensation and benefits as they become due): (1) in lieu of any other salary payments: a lump sum cash payment equal to two or three times the sum of (a) the higher of (i) the Executive's annual base salary in effect at the time of termination or (ii) the Executive's annual base compensation in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control or Major Transaction and (b) the higher of (i) the average of the annual bonuses awarded him/her under the National Grid USA Companies' Incentive Compensation Plan and the National Grid USA Companies' Incentive Share Plan or successors of any such plans (collectively, the Incentive Plans) for the three performance years preceding the year in which the Executive's Date of Termination occurs or (ii) the average of the annual bonuses awarded him/her pursuant to the Incentive Plans for the three performance years preceding the year in which the Change in Control or Major Transaction occurred; (2) in addition to the retirement benefits to which the Executive is entitled, a lump sum cash payment equal to the excess of (a) the actuarial equivalent of the retirement pension which the Executive would have accrued under the terms of each Pension Plan (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) of National Grid USA (determined as if the Executive (i) were fully vested thereunder and had accumulated 24 or 36 additional months of service credit thereunder and (ii) had been credited under each Pension Plan during such 24 or 36 month period with compensation at the higher of (A) the Executive's compensation during the 12 months immediately preceding the Executive's Date of Termination or (B) the Executive's compensation during the 12 months immediately preceding the Change in Control or Major Transaction) over (b) the actuarial equivalent of the retirement pension which the Executive had actually accrued pursuant to the provisions of each pension plan as of the Date of Termination; (3) the continuation of life, disability, accident and health insurance benefits substantially similar to those which the Executive had received prior to his/her Date of Termination for 24 or 36 months following the Date of Termination, reduced to the extent the Executive receives such benefits or such benefits are made available to the Executive from a subsequent employer, without cost to the Executive; (4) if the Executive would have otherwise been entitled to post-retirement health care or life insurance had the Executive employment terminated at any time during the 24 or 36 months following the Executive's Date of Termination such post-retirement health care and life insurance commencing on the later of (a) the date that such coverage would have first become available to the Executive and (b) the date that the benefits described in clause (3) above terminate; and (5) the reimbursement of legal fees and expenses, if any, incurred by the Executive in disputing in good faith, any issue relating to the termination of the Executive's employment. Notwithstanding the above, the payments and benefits to be provided to the Executive will be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of the Excise Tax (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code; provided that such reduction would yield a greater result to the Executive than actual payment by the Executive of the Excise Tax. National Grid USA is also a party to an Employment Agreement with Mr. Sergel dated March 22, 2000 which remains in effect for 36 months from March 22, 2000 plus as of March 22, 2002, one additional day and one additional day each day thereafter until either party notifies the other that the Employment Period shall not continue to be extended. In accordance with the terms of Mr. Sergel's Employment Agreement, if Mr. Sergel is terminated without cause or by Mr. Sergel for Good Reason (as defined in his Employment Agreement) Mr. Sergel will be entitled to receive (in addition to any normal post-term compensation and benefits) (1) a lump sum payment of: (a) any portion of his annual base salary through his Date of Termination (as defined in his Employment Agreement) that had not been paid and (b) a bonus amount under National Grid USA Companies' Incentive Compensation Plan and Incentive Share Plan or successors of any such plans (collectively the Incentive Plans) representing the target Incentive Compensation (as defined in his Employment Agreement) for the year that would otherwise vest and/or become payable within the year in which his Date of Termination occurs, computed by assuming that the amount of all such target Incentive Compensation would be equal to the amount of such target Incentive Compensation that Mr. Sergel would have been eligible to earn for such period, and multiplying that amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such period through his Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the relevant period; (c) any compensation previously deferred by the Executive that has not yet been paid; and (d) any accrued but unpaid Incentive Compensation and/or vacation pay); (2) if Mr. Sergel's employment is terminated within 2 years following a Change in Control (as defined in his Employment Agreement), Mr. Sergel will receive the following benefits: (a) a lump sum cash payment equal to (i) 3x the sum of his annual base salary as if he had remained employed through said period; and (ii) 3x the higher of the average of the annual bonuses awarded him under the Incentive Plans for the three years preceding March 22, 2000 or the three years preceding his Date of Termination; (excluding stock options) (b) continuation for 36 months of (or the equivalent of, if such benefits can't be provided to Mr. Sergel under said plans or programs) (i) accrual of his supplemental retirement benefits (as defined in the Supplemental Retirement Incentive Plan) (ii) all welfare benefit plans and programs provided to senior officers by the Company, including but not limited to medical, dental, prescription, disability, group life insurance, employee life insurance, accidental death and travel accident insurance, reduced to the extent Mr. Sergel receives such benefits from a subsequent employer without cost to him (iii) all applicable incentive savings and retirement plans and programs provided to senior officers by the Company and (iv) all fringe benefits provided to senior officers of the Company1; (3) reimbursement of legal fees and expenses, if any, incurred by him in disputing in good faith, any issue relating to his termination of employment; (4) if any payment or distribution by the Company or interest or penalty on such payment or distribution (Payment) is subject to the excise tax as imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, a "gross-up" payment in an amount equal to the excise tax, including any interest or penalties imposed upon such Payment and applicable taxes thereon; and (5) any restrictions on restricted stock outstanding on Mr. Sergel's Date of Termination shall lapse as of said date, any outstanding incentive compensation awards with vesting and/or payment contingent upon attainment of individual, Company, or affiliate performance goals shall, for purposes of awards considered short term by National Grid, be deemed satisfied at 90% of "Maximum" level and paid, in a lump sum cash payment within five (5) days of the Date of Termination, prorata for the portion of the performance year through the Date of Termination and all National Grid Options outstanding as of the Date of Termination under the Scheme shall be governed by the terms of the Scheme. Upon a Change in Control a participant in the deferred compensation plan has the option of receiving a full distribution of the participant' cash and share accounts and the actuarial value of future benefits from the insurance related benefits under a prior plan, all less 10 percent. The National Grid USA Companies' bonus plans, including the Incentive Plans, the Incentive Thrift Plan, and the Goals Program, provided for payments equal to the average of the bonuses for the three prior years in the event of a Change of Control. These payments would be made in lieu of the regular bonuses for the year in which the Change in Control occurs. The Retirees Health and Life Insurance Plan has provisions preventing changes in benefits adverse to the participants for three years following a Change in Control. PLAN SUMMARIES A brief description of the various plans through which compensation and benefits have been provided to the named executive officers is presented below to better enable shareholders to understand the information presented in the tables shown earlier. The amounts of compensation and benefits provided to the named executive officers under the plans described below (and charged to the relevant companies) are presented in the Summary Compensation Tables. Goals Program The Goals cash bonus program is a broad-based, all-employee bonus program, which focuses employees on both the financial performance of the Company and operational performance in key categories such as reliability, customer satisfaction and safety. Payout levels vary depending on both financial performance and the number of goals achieved in each work location and function. Assuming the minimum financial goal is met, and depending upon the number of other goals attained, an employee may earn a cash bonus of between 0.8% and 4.5% of their eligible pay. ------------------ 1 If Mr. Sergel's employment is terminated after May 22, 2002 but before a Change in Control or more than two years following a Change in Control, Mr. Sergel will receive all of the benefits described in (2)(a) and (b) above, except he will receive the equivalent of 18 months of benefits rather than 36 months of benefits. Incentive Thrift Plan The Incentive Thrift Plan permits eligible employees to contribute up to 50% of their pay on a on a pre-tax basis into the plan (subject to legal limits), and to receive a Company matching contribution of up to 5% of their base pay provided the employee contributes at least 6% of her or his base pay into the plan. Under Internal Revenue Code rules, annual salary deferrals could not exceed $10,500, and compensation taken into account for determining deferrals could not exceed $170,000. Consequently, matching contributions were capped at $8,500. Matching contributions are shown under Other Annual Compensation in the Summary Compensation Tables. Deferred Compensation Plan The Deferred Compensation Plan offers executives the opportunity to defer bonuses and/or a portion of base pay until a later elected date. The plan offers returns on deferrals based upon either the prime rate, the S&P 500 Index,or parent company securities. In addition, the Company credits executives under the Deferred Compensation Plan with the amount of matching contribution that the executive was unable to contribute under the Incentive Thrift Plan due to the $170,000 compensation limit, determined by presuming a maximum executive deferral of $10,500. For the year ended March 31, 2002, the maximum make-up contribution was approximately $250. Life Insurance Executives are offered life insurance funded by individual policies with death benefits of either two or three times the participant's annual salary depending upon the executive's level. These policies are structured in a manner that the employing company will recoup the premiums it has made into the policies at a later date. This program is under review due to a recently released Internal Revenue Service Notice on the subject matter. Incentive Compensation Plan There are two bonus plans applicable to executives, the Incentive Compensation Plan and the Incentive Share Plan. The former awards cash bonuses tied to the achievement of financial results and which are closely aligned with the company's strategic objectives. Annual financial targets and individual goals are established each year. In addition, depending upon the level of bonus awarded under the Incentive Compensation Plan, executives receive an award in the form of parent company securities under the Incentive Share Plan. If no cash bonus is paid, no Incentive Share Plan bonus is paid Financial Counseling National Grid USA companies pay for personal financial counseling for certain senior executives. As required by the Internal Revenue Service, a portion of the value of services is reported as taxable income to the executive.

The exercise price is 8.32 dollars (the mid market price on the day before the grant of the options) per share of National Grid stock. The options are for National Grid shares listed on the London Stock Exchange - not National Grid ADRs, each ADR being equal to 5 shares. The exercise price is 5.63 GBP and was converted to dollars for this table using a conversion of 1 GBP to 1.47848 dollars. The options are not vested for 3 years and lapse after 10 years. The number of stock options granted was a multiple of base pay ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 times base pay. The options are subject to a performance condition. The options are only exercisable if National Grid's total shareholder return (as defined) during the three years of the performance period place it at least at the median of a stated comparison group. All of the options are exercisable if National Grid ranks in the top quartile and a portion are exercisable if National Grid ranks between the median and the top quartile. If the performance condition is not met after the three year period, the National Grid Remuneration Committee may recalculate the performance condition on subsequent anniversaries of the performance period. The Committee may make adjustments as it considers appropriate to take account of any factor which it considers to be relevant (such as a capital reorganization of National Grid or a member of the comparison group). The Committee may change the performance condition or use an alternative methodology for calculating total shareholder return. The total options granted in the last fiscal year to the officers listed below is as follows. Only those options listed in the table above were allocated as compensation paid by the company listed in the table.

Retirement Benefits and Employment Agreements Niagara Mohawk Pension Plan The Niagara Mohawk Pension Plan ("Basic Plan") is a noncontributory, tax-qualified defined benefit plan and provides all employees of the Company with a minimum retirement benefit. This retirement benefit is related to compensation--that is, base salary or pay--subject to the maximum annual limits noted in the Retirement Benefits Table. The participant's Basic Plan retirement benefit is based on one of two formulas depending on age and years of service on July 1, 1998: the cash balance formula; or the highest five-year average compensation. Effective July 1, 1998, the Basic Plan was amended to include a cash balance formula. Under a cash balance formula a participant's retirement benefit grows with pay credits (four percent - eight percent x salary) plus interest credits on a monthly basis. A non-represented (management) employee who was at least 45 years of age and has 10 years of service on July 1, 1998 or has at least 5 years of service and 50 points (age plus service) as of December 31, 1998 will receive the higher of the 2 formulas--the cash balance formula or the highest consecutive five-year compensation. All other non-represented employees' Basic Plan benefit will be based on the cash balance formula only. Directors who are not employees are not eligible to participate in the Basic Plan. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan The Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") is a noncontributory, nonqualified defined benefit plan that provides additional retirement benefits to officers of the Company who have obtained age 55 and who have 20 or more years of employment. Exceptions to the age and service requirements may be granted. The SERP provides a benefit equal to the greater of: Sixty percent of base salary averaged over the final 36 months of employment, reduced by benefits payable under the Basic Plan; retirement benefits accrued during previous employment and one-half of the maximum security benefit to which the participant may be entitled at the time of retirement, or benefits payable under the Basic Plan without regard to the annual benefit limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. Provided certain established criteria are met, participants in the SERP may elect to receive their benefit in a lump sum payment. However, if plan participants cease to be employed by the Company or by National Grid after January 31, 2002 due to the participants involuntary termination or voluntary termination with "good reason," the SERP benefit will be paid in the form of a lump sum. The following table shows the maximum retirement benefit (adjusted for Social Security) an officer can earn in aggregate under both the Basic Plan and the SERP.

The benefit calculations assume the officer has selected a straight life annuity and retired on March 31, 2002 at age 65. Annual compensation limits of $200,000 under a tax-qualified plan will reduce the benefit amount collectible under the Basic Plan for some highly compensated officers. As of March 31, 2002, the persons named in the Summary Compensation Table had the following estimated credited years of benefit service for purposes of the pension program: Mr. Edwards, 23 years; Mr. Baron, 35 years; Mr. LoBaugh, 3 years; Mr. Synwoldt, 10 years; Mr. Russo, 1 year; Mr. Davis, 12 years; Ms. Kerr, 29 years; and Mr. Arrington, 11 years. While the above table reflects accruals under both the Base Plan and the SERP, effective January 31, 2002, the benefits that participants have accrued in the Niagara Mohawk SERP Plan were frozen. No future benefits will be accrued for participants after this date and all active participants are vested in the plan. As of March 31, 2002 the follow named executive officers have received distribution of their benefit under the SERP: Messrs. Edwards, Davis and Arrington and Ms. Kerr. Employment Agreements Niagara Mohawk entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Edwards, Baron, Davis, Arrington and Ms. Kerr. Messrs. Arrington, Baron, and Davis have received the change of control payments under the employment agreements on the terms outlined for Mr. Edwards below. Ms. Kerr's employment agreement was terminated and replaced with an agreement with National Grid USA. Mr. Davis also has an agreement with National Grid USA. Mr. Edwards' agreement will remain in effect for 36 months after January 31, 2002 (completion date of the merger between National Grid and Holdings). If Mr. Edwards' employment is terminated by Niagara Mohawk without cause or by Mr. Edwards for good reason within 36 months after the completion of the merger, Mr. Edwards will be entitled to a lump sum severance benefit equal to four times his base salary. Mr. Edwards will also be entitled to employee benefit plan coverage for medical, prescription drug, dental and hospitalization benefits and life insurance for the remainder of his life with all related premiums paid by Niagara Mohawk, and coverage under other employee benefit plans will continue for four years. In the event that the payments to Mr. Edwards upon termination of employment would subject Mr. Edwards to the excise tax on excess parachute payments under the Internal Revenue Code, Niagara Mohawk will reimburse him for such excise tax (and the income tax and excise tax on such reimbursement). In the event of a dispute over Mr. Edwards' rights under the agreement, Niagara Mohawk will pay Mr. Edwards' reasonable legal fees with respect to the dispute unless Mr. Edwards' claims are found to be frivolous. As used in the employment agreements, "good reason" generally means a materially adverse change in duties, reduction in salary or benefits or relocation by more than 50 miles, all as determined by the executive in good faith. As used in the employment agreements, termination for "cause" generally arises upon willful failure to perform duties, commitment of a felony, gross neglect or willful misconduct resulting in material economic loss to Niagara Mohawk or breach of certain confidentiality and non-compete provisions. "Cause" must be determined by a vote of three-fourths of the Board of Directors after a meeting at which the executive and his or her legal counsel are entitled to be heard. Niagara Mohawk entered into Change in Control Agreements with Messrs. LoBaugh, Synwoldt and Russo which provide that if, within two years following a change in control, which occurred upon the completion of the merger, an officer terminates his employment for good reason or Niagara Mohawk terminates the officer's employment without cause, the officer will be entitled to a lump sum severance benefit equal to two times the officer's base salary plus two years of benefits.
