ISSUE, SALE, PLEDGE, GUARANTEE, OR ASSUMPTION OF SYSTEM SECURITIES 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. From time to time, NU guarantees the payment of such a bond by its subsidiary through the indemnification of the surety company or agency which has agreed to provide the bond. NU's guarantee of these surety bonds is exempt from the provisions of Section 12(b) of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, pursuant to Rule 45(b)(6) thereunder. As of December 31, 2003, NU had $41 million of such guarantees outstanding, which was the highest amount outstanding during 2003. At various times from January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003, Select Energy has issued debt to NU in reliance on Rule 52. The highest balance outstanding through the year was $84 million on November 25, 2003 and the balance at the end of 2003 was $65 million. The interest rate matched the interest rate charged to NU under its revolving credit facility at the time of the issuance. At December 31, 2003, the weighted average interest rate was 2.19% (excluding utilization fees). Also, Select Energy issued a note in the amount of $150 million to NU on June 3, 2003 at a rate of 3.3% in reliance on the exemption in Rule 52. In addition, information relating to the following issuances has been filed on Form U-6B-2 in accordance with Rule 52: 1. On September 1, 2003, Western Massachusetts Electric Company, The Bank of New York, as Trustee, and certain participating banks therein named, entered into an indenture agreement to issue a series of 5.00% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2013, in the aggregate principal amount of $55,000,000. Form U-6B-2 for this transaction was filed on October 2, 2003. 2. On September 23, 2003, The Connecticut Light and Power Company, the Connecticut Development Authority, the U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, and certain participating banks therein named, entered into a Compensation and Multiannual Mode Agreement to convert the 1996 Series A Pollution Control Revenue Bonds to a multiannual interest rate. The 1996 Series A Pollution Control Revenue Bonds were converted from bearing interest at a weekly rate to bearing interest at a multiannual rate of 3.35% for a 5 year period and that upon conversion, the bonds would cease to be supported by the 2000 Standby Bond Purchase Agreement. Form U-6B-2 for this transaction was filed on October 2, 2003. 9 ITEM 4.

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 of $20,000 payable quarterly. The Chair of the Audit Committee is paid an additional annual retainer of $10,000, the Chair of the Compensation Committee is paid an additional annual retainer of $5,000, and the Chairs of the Corporate Affairs, Corporate Governance, and Finance Committees are paid an additional annual retainer of $4,000 ($3,750 in 2003), each payable quarterly. In addition to the above compensation, The Lead Trustee is paid an additional annual retainer of $50,000 ($40,000 in 2003) payable quarterly for the extra services performed as Lead Trustee. A non-employee Trustee receives $1,500 ($1,000 prior to July 1, 2003) and $1,000 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 $675 for a Committee meeting. However, members of the Audit Committee will receive $1,000 for certain meetings held by conference telephone during 2004. 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 ($1,000 per day prior to July 1, 2003) plus necessary expenses. 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. During 2003, each non-employee Trustee received 2,000 common shares of Northeast Utilities, and was granted 1,000 restricted common shares under the Incentive Plan, which vested in March 2004, subject in each case to any deferral election in effect. 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. A portion of these units is subject to forfeiture if the Trustee leaves the Board prior to January 10, 2005. Absent forfeiture, and subject to any deferral election in effect, half of these units will be paid as newly-issued shares in January 2005 and half will be paid as newly-issued shares in January 2009. 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. 34 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. During 2002 each non-employee Director of PSNH and WMECO was compensated at an annual rate of $10,000 cash, and received $500 for each meeting attended of the Board of Directors or, in the case of PSNH, its committees. A non-employee Director who participated in a meeting of the Board of Directors or any of its committees by conference telephone received $300 per meeting. Also, committee chairs were compensated at an additional annual rate of $1,500. iii.

Under the Northeast Utilities Incentive Plan, 5,385,371 shares were available for issuance as of December 31, 2003. In addition, an amount equal to one percent of the outstanding shares as of the end of each year becomes available for issuance under the Incentive Plan the following year. Under the Northeast Utilities Employee Share Purchase Plan II, 6,921,265 additional shares are available for issuance. Each such plan expires in 2008. 39 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 (SEC) 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, 2003, all such reporting requirements were complied with in a timely manner. c. Their contracts and transactions with system companies: Northeast Utilities has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Morris and NUSCO has entered into employment agreements or arrangements with Messrs. Butler, Forsgren, Olivier and Shivery and Mrs. Grise; Mr. Olivier and each of the other named executive officers participate in the Special Severance Program for Officers of Northeast Utilities Companies. The agreements and the Special Severance Program are also binding on Northeast Utilities and on certain majority-owned subsidiaries of Northeast Utilities. The agreements with Messrs. Morris, Shivery, Butler and Forsgren and Mrs. Grise obligate 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, refrain, while employed by the Company and for a period of time thereafter, from competing with the Company in a specified geographic area, and provide that the officer's base salary will not be reduced below certain levels without the consent of the officer. These agreements also provide that the officer will participate in specified benefits under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan or other supplemental retirement programs and/or in certain executive incentive programs at specified incentive opportunity levels, 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 no supplemental retirement benefit, if any, shall be due), 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 one or 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 these agreements and the Special Severance Program, 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 exceed three) of "base compensation", as defined, annual incentive payments, specified employee welfare and pension benefits, and vesting of stock appreciation rights, options and restricted stock. 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, the agreements of Messrs. Morris, Shivery and Forsgren provide for a specified salary, cash, restricted stock and/or stock options upon employment, special incentive programs and/or special retirement benefits. The agreements of Mr. Forsgren and Mrs. Grise were supplemented during 2001 to provide for special deferred compensation of $520,000 and $500,000, respectively, vesting in even installments (adjusted to reflect investment performance) on June 28, 2002, 2003 and 2004, so long as such officer remains in the employ of Northeast Utilities Service Company, and vesting sooner in the event of a change of control of the Company or involuntary termination without cause. Letter agreements reflecting the terms of employment of Messrs. Boguslawski and Olivier provide for specified salary, cash, restricted stock, stock options or other benefits upon employment. 40 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. d. Their indebtedness to system companies: No Trustee, Director or executive officer was indebted to a system company during 2003. e. Their participation in bonus and profit-sharing arrangements and other benefits: Besides the 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). Mr. Morris'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 to all compensation earned from the Northeast Utilities system (the Company) and to all service rendered to the Company and CMS. Mr. Morris's Employment Agreement also provides that if he retired after age 60, his special retirement benefit would be no less than that which he would have received had he been eligible for a make-whole benefit plus a target benefit under the Supplemental Plan. Messrs. Butler, Forsgren, and Shivery and Mrs. Grise are currently eligible for a make-whole plus a target benefit. Messrs. Olivier and Long and Mrs. Kuhlman are eligible for the make-whole benefit but not the target benefit. Mr. Forsgren's Employment Agreement provides for supplemental pension benefits based on crediting up to ten years of additional service and providing 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. In addition, if Mr. Forsgren retires after age 58, he will be eligible for a make-whole plus a target benefit under the Supplemental Plan based on crediting three extra years of service, unreduced for early commencement. Mr. Shivery's Employment Agreement provides for a special retirement benefit, following completion of five years of service with the Company, 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. The terms of Mr. Olivier's employment provide for certain supplemental pension benefits in lieu of a make-whole benefit if certain 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 41 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.

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 long term incentive compensation for 2002 and 2003. 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. Mr. Morris is not eligible to participate in the Supplemental Plan, but he does participate in the Retirement Plan. The amount of his annual compensation covered by the Retirement Plan was limited by the IRS to $200,000 for 2003. The compensation covered by the Supplemental Plan in 2003 for Mr. Forsgren, Mr. Shivery, Mrs. Grise, Mr. Butler, Mr. Olivier, Mr. Long, and Mrs Kuhlman was $1,871,931, $906,616, $1,169,601, $508,140, $634,627, $348,005, and $328,233, respectively. As of December 31, 2003, the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table had approximately the following years of credited service for purposes of the Supplemental Plan: Mr. Forsgren - 7, Mr. Shivery - 1, Mrs. Grise - 23, Mr. Butler - 7, Mr. Olivier - 5, Mr. Long - 28, and Mrs. Kuhlman - 23. Mr. Morris had 25 years of service for purpose of his special retirement benefit. In addition, Mr. Forsgren had 15 years of service for purposes of his supplemental pension benefit and would have 28 years of service for such purpose if he were to retire at age 65. 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. 43 ITEM 7.
