<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Consolidation - </B>In February 2015, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that amends the consolidation analysis for variable interest entities
(&ldquo;VIEs&rdquo;) as well as voting interest entities. The amendments under the new guidance modify the evaluation of whether
limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities and eliminate the presumption that a general
partner should consolidate a limited partnership. This guidance was effective January 1, 2016. The adoption of this guidance did
not have a material impact on the Company&rsquo;s financial statements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Debt Issuance Costs</B> - In April 2015,
the FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet, requiring
companies to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of debt. The guidance was effective January
1, 2016. As a result of adopting this guidance, the December 31, 2015 balance sheet was revised, which resulted in decreases of
$3.3 million to deferred charges and other assets and long-term debt, respectively. Unamortized debt expense of $3.3 million was
included in long-term debt as of March 31, 2016. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company&rsquo;s statements
of income or cash flows.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Deferred Income Taxes &ndash; </B>In November
2015<B>, </B>the FASB issued guidance on the classification of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, requiring entities
to present them as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This guidance was effective January 1, 2016 and did not have a material impact
on the Company&rsquo;s balance sheet.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Revenue Recognition</B> - In May 2014, the
FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers. The update replaces most of the
existing guidance with a single set of principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The FASB has deferred
the effective date of these new revenue recognition standards by one year to January 1, 2018. The Company is currently analyzing
the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Inventory</B> - In July 2015, the FASB issued
guidance on simplifying the measurement of inventory. The new guidance replaces the current lower of cost or market test with a
lower of cost or net realizable value test when cost is determined on a first-in, first-out or average cost basis. The guidance
is effective January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact
on the Company&rsquo;s financial statements.</P>

Assets and Financial<I> </I>Liabilities </B>- In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance which (i) requires all investments in equity
securities, including other ownership interests such as partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures and limited liability companies,
to be carried at fair value through net income, (ii) requires an incremental recognition and disclosure requirement related to
the presentation of fair value changes of financial liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected, (iii) amends
several disclosure requirements, including the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value or a description
of the changes in the methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, and (iv) requires disclosure of the fair value of financial
assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost at the amount that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the
liability. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The guidance
is required to be applied retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the
guidance at the date of adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will
have on our financial statements.</P>

the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective January 1, 2017. The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Middlesex-</B>In April 2016, Middlesex filed
a petition with the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (the NJBPU) seeking approval to set a tariff rate under a purchased water
adjustment clause to recover additional costs of less than $0.1 million for the purchase of treated water from a non-affiliated
regulated water utility. We cannot predict whether the NJBPU will ultimately approve, deny or reduce the amount of the request.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Tidewater - </B>Effective January 1, 2016,
Tidewater increased its Delaware Public Service Commission-approved Distribution System Improvement Charge (DSIC) rate, which is
expected to generate $0.2 million of annual revenues. A DSIC is a rate-mechanism that allows water utilities to recover investments
in, and generate a return on, qualifying capital improvements to their water distribution system made between base rate proceedings.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Pinelands </B>- In April 2016, the NJBPU
approved $0.2 million and $0.1 million increases, respectively, in Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater&rsquo;s annual base
water and wastewater rates. In October 2015, the companies had filed petitions with the NJBPU seeking permission to increase base
rates by approximately $0.5 million per year. The rate filings were necessitated by capital infrastructure investments the companies
have made, or have committed to make, increased operations and maintenance costs and lower non-fixed fee revenues. The Pinelands
Water base water rate increase will be phased-in over two years.</P>

Twin Lakes filed a petition with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission (the PAPUC) seeking permission to increase its
base water rates by approximately $0.2 million per year. This request was necessitated by capital infrastructure investments
Twin Lakes has made, or committed to make, and increased operations and maintenance costs. In March 2016, Twin Lakes, along
with the regulatory agencies intervening in the rate matter, submitted a joint petition of settlement with the administrative
law judge (ALJ), which recommends a $0.1 million rate increase to be phased in over  two years. We cannot predict whether the
ALJ or, ultimately, the PAPUC will approve, deny, or change the amount of the settlement. A final decision is expected during
the second quarter of 2016.</P>

The fair value of the Company&rsquo;s long-term debt relating to First Mortgage and SRF Bonds (Bonds) is based on quoted market
prices for similar issues. Under the fair value hierarchy, the fair value of cash and cash equivalents is classified as a Level
1 measurement and the fair value of the Bonds in the table below are classified as Level 2 measurements. The carrying amount and

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The Company has identified two reportable segments.
One is the regulated business of collecting, treating and distributing water on a retail and wholesale basis to residential, commercial,
industrial and fire protection customers in parts of New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania. This segment also includes regulated
wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&nbsp;The Company is subject to regulations as to its rates, services and other matters
by New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania with respect to utility services within these states. The other segment is primarily comprised
of non-regulated contract services for the operation and maintenance of municipal and private water and wastewater systems in New
Jersey and Delaware.&nbsp;Inter-segment transactions relating to operational costs are treated as pass-through expenses. Finance
charges on inter-segment loan activities are based on interest rates that are below what would normally be charged by a third party
lender.</P>

September 2013, Middlesex entered into an agreement with the County of Monmouth, New Jersey (Monmouth County) to serve as guarantor
of the performance of Applied Water Management, Inc. (AWM) to operate a leachate pretreatment facility, owned by Monmouth County,
at the Monmouth County Reclamation Center in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. Middlesex expects to act as guarantor of AWM&rsquo;s performance
through at least August 2018 and is contractually obligated to act as guarantor of AWM&rsquo;s performance through 2028 unless
another guarantor, acceptable to Monmouth County, is identified. In addition, Middlesex entered into agreements with AWM and Natural
Systems Utilities, Inc. (NSU), the parent company of AWM, whereby, Middlesex earns a fee for providing the guaranty of AWM&rsquo;s
performance to Monmouth County, Middlesex provides operational support to the project if necessary, and AWM and NSU, serving as
guarantor to Middlesex with respect to the performance of AWM, indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the
Middlesex guaranty to Monmouth County.</P>

obligations to indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to Monmouth County, Middlesex
would be required to fulfill the remaining operational commitment of AWM. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the liability
recognized in Other Non-Current Liabilities on the balance sheet for the guaranty is approximately $0.2 million.</P>

Base Water and Wastewater Rate Increases</B> - In April 2016, the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (the NJBPU) approved $0.2
million and $0.1 million increases, respectively, in Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater&rsquo;s annual base water and wastewater
rates. In October 2015, the companies had filed petitions with the NJBPU seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately
$0.5 million. The rate filings were necessitated by capital infrastructure investments the companies have made, or have committed
to make, increased operations and maintenance costs and lower non-fixed fee revenues. The Pinelands Water base water rate increase
will be phased-in over two years.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Twin Lakes Base Water Rate Increase
Request - </B>In November 2015, Twin Lakes filed a Petition with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission (the PAPUC)
seeking permission to increase its base water rates by approximately $0.2 million per year. This request was necessitated by
capital infrastructure investments Twin Lakes has made, or committed to make, and increased operations and maintenance costs.
In March 2016, Twin Lakes, along with the regulatory agencies intervening in the rate matter, submitted a joint petition of
settlement with the administrative law judge (ALJ), which recommends a $0.1 million rate increase to be phased in over two
years. We cannot predict whether the ALJ, or ultimately, the PAPUC will approve, deny, or change the amount of the
settlement. A final decision is expected during the second quarter of 2016.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">We are exposed to market risk associated with
changes in interest rates and commodity prices. The Company is subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal
course of business. Our policy is to manage interest rates through the use of fixed rate long-term debt and, to a lesser extent,
short-term debt. The Company&rsquo;s interest rate risk related to existing fixed rate, long-term debt is not material due to the
term of the majority of our First Mortgage Bonds, which have final maturity dates ranging from 2018 to 2047. Over the next twelve
months, approximately $5.7 million of the current portion of existing long-term debt instruments will mature. Applying a hypothetical
change in the rate of interest charged by 10% on those borrowings, would not have a material effect on our earnings.</P>

increases through rates. Non-performance by these commodity suppliers could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations,

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">We are exposed to credit risk for both our
Regulated and Non-Regulated business segments. Our Regulated operations serve residential, commercial, industrial and municipal
customers while our Non-Regulated operations engage in business activities with developers, government entities and other customers.
Our primary credit risk is exposure to customer default on contractual obligations and the associated loss that may be incurred
due to the non-payment of customer accounts receivable balances. Our credit risk is managed through established credit and collection
policies which are in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and involve monitoring of customer exposure and the use
of credit risk mitigation measures such as letters of credit or prepayment arrangements. Our credit portfolio is diversified with
no significant customer or industry concentrations. In addition, our Regulated businesses are generally able to recover all prudently
incurred costs including uncollectible customer accounts receivable expenses and collection costs through rates.</P>

Information included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, has been derived from the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 included in the 2015 Form 10-K.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Recent Accounting Guidance &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Consolidation - &lt;/b&gt;In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that amends the consolidation analysis for variable interest entities (&amp;#147;VIEs&amp;#148;) as well as voting interest entities. The amendments under the new guidance modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities and eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership. This guidance was effective January 1, 2016. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Debt Issuance Costs&lt;/b&gt; - In April 2015, the FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet, requiring companies to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of debt. The guidance was effective January 1, 2016. As a result of adopting this guidance, the December 31, 2015 balance sheet was revised, which resulted in decreases of $&lt;font&gt;3.3&lt;/font&gt; million to deferred charges and other assets and long-term debt, respectively. Unamortized debt expense of $&lt;font&gt;3.3&lt;/font&gt; million was included in long-term debt as of March 31, 2016. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company's statements of income or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Deferred Income Taxes &amp;#150; &lt;/b&gt;In November 2015&lt;b&gt;, &lt;/b&gt;the FASB issued guidance on the classification of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, requiring entities to present them as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This guidance was effective January 1, 2016 and did not have a material impact on the Company's balance sheet.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Revenue Recognition&lt;/b&gt; - In May 2014, the FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers. The update replaces most of the existing guidance with a single set of principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The FASB has deferred the effective date of these new revenue recognition standards by one year to January 1, 2018. The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Inventory&lt;/b&gt; - In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance on simplifying the measurement of inventory. The new guidance replaces the current lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost or net realizable value test when cost is determined on a first-in, first-out or average cost basis. The guidance is effective January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;Liabilities &lt;/b&gt;- In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance which (i) requires all investments in equity securities, including other ownership interests such as partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures and limited liability companies, to be carried at fair value through net income, (ii) requires an incremental recognition and disclosure requirement related to the presentation of fair value changes of financial liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected, (iii) amends several disclosure requirements, including the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value or a description of the changes in the methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, and (iv) requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost at the amount that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The guidance is required to be applied retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the guidance at the date of adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Accounting for Share-Based Payments - &lt;/b&gt;In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective January 1, 2017. The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;There are no other new adopted or proposed accounting guidance that the Company is aware of that could have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:BasisOfPresentationAndSignificantAccountingPoliciesTextBlock>

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tidewater - &lt;/b&gt;Effective January 1, 2016, Tidewater increased its Delaware Public Service Commission-approved Distribution System Improvement Charge (DSIC) rate, which is expected to generate $&lt;font&gt;0.2&lt;/font&gt; million of annual revenues. A DSIC is a rate-mechanism that allows water utilities to recover investments in, and generate a return on, qualifying capital improvements to their water distribution system made between base rate proceedings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Pinelands &lt;/b&gt;- In April 2016, the NJBPU approved $&lt;font&gt;0.2&lt;/font&gt; million and $&lt;font&gt;0.1&lt;/font&gt; million increases, respectively, in Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater's annual base water and wastewater rates. In October 2015, the companies had filed petitions with the NJBPU seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately $&lt;font&gt;0.5&lt;/font&gt; million per year. The rate filings were necessitated by capital infrastructure investments the companies have made, or have committed to make, increased operations and maintenance costs and lower non-fixed fee revenues. The Pinelands Water base water rate increase will be phased-in over two years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Twin Lakes - &lt;/b&gt;In November 2015, Twin Lakes filed a petition with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission (the PAPUC) seeking permission to increase its base water rates by approximately $&lt;font&gt;0.2&lt;/font&gt; million per year. This request was necessitated by capital infrastructure investments Twin Lakes has made, or committed to make, and increased operations and maintenance costs. In March 2016, Twin Lakes, along with the regulatory agencies intervening in the rate matter, submitted a joint petition of settlement with the administrative law judge (ALJ), which recommends a $&lt;font&gt;0.1&lt;/font&gt; million rate increase to be phased in over two years. We cannot predict whether the ALJ or, ultimately, the PAPUC will approve, deny, or change the amount of the settlement. A final decision is expected during the second quarter of 2016.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;The Company has identified &lt;font&gt;two&lt;/font&gt; reportable segments. One is the regulated business of collecting, treating and distributing water on a retail and wholesale basis to residential, commercial, industrial and fire protection customers in parts of New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania. This segment also includes regulated wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&amp;#160;The Company is subject to regulations as to its rates, services and other matters by New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania with respect to utility services within these states. The other segment is primarily comprised of non-regulated contract services for the operation and maintenance of municipal and private water and wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&amp;#160;Inter-segment transactions relating to operational costs are treated as pass-through expenses. Finance charges on inter-segment loan activities are based on interest rates that are below what would normally be charged by a third party lender.&lt;/p&gt;

margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Contract Operations - &lt;/i&gt;USA-PA operates the City of Perth Amboy, New Jersey's (Perth Amboy) water and wastewater systems under a 20-year agreement, which expires in 2018. In connection with the agreement with Perth Amboy, USA-PA entered into a 20-year subcontract with a wastewater operating company for the operation and maintenance of the Perth Amboy wastewater collection system. The subcontract provides for the sharing of certain fixed and variable fees and operating expenses.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Guarantees - &lt;/i&gt;In September 2013, Middlesex entered into an agreement with the County of Monmouth, New Jersey (Monmouth County) to serve as guarantor of the performance of Applied Water Management, Inc. (AWM) to operate a leachate pretreatment facility, owned by Monmouth County, at the Monmouth County Reclamation Center in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. Middlesex expects to act as guarantor of AWM's performance through at least August 2018 and is contractually obligated to act as guarantor of AWM's performance through 2028 unless another guarantor, acceptable to Monmouth County, is identified. In addition, Middlesex entered into agreements with AWM and Natural Systems Utilities, Inc. (NSU), the parent company of AWM, whereby, Middlesex earns a fee for providing the guaranty of AWM's performance to Monmouth County, Middlesex provides operational support to the project if necessary, and AWM and NSU, serving as guarantor to Middlesex with respect to the performance of AWM, indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to Monmouth County.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;Middlesex believes it is unlikely any payments would need to be made under Middlesex's guaranty of AWM's performance to Monmouth County. If asked to perform under the guaranty to Monmouth County, and, if AWM and NSU, as guarantor to Middlesex, do not fulfill their obligations to indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to Monmouth County, Middlesex would be required to fulfill the remaining operational commitment of AWM. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the liability recognized in Other Non-Current Liabilities on the balance sheet for the guaranty is approximately $&lt;font&gt;0.2&lt;/font&gt; million.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Construction&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;The Company has budgeted approximately $&lt;font&gt;47.3&lt;/font&gt; million for its construction program in 2016. The actual timing and amount of capital expenditures is dependent on project scheduling and refinement of engineering estimates for certain projects.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Litigation&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;The Company is a defendant in lawsuits in the normal course of business. We believe the resolution of pending claims and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Change in Control Agreements&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;The Company has Change in Control Agreements with certain of its officers that provide compensation and benefits in the event of termination of employment in connection with a change in control of the Company.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:CommitmentsAndContingenciesDisclosureTextBlock>

Employees hired after March 31, 2007 are not eligible to participate in this plan, but do participate in a defined contribution plan that provides an annual contribution at the discretion of the Company, based upon a percentage of the participants' compensation. In order to be eligible for contribution, the eligible employee must be employed by the Company on December 31st of the year to which the contribution relates. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company made Pension Plan cash contributions of $&lt;font&gt;0.5&lt;/font&gt; million. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company did not make any Pension Plan cash contributions. The Company expects to make Pension Plan cash contributions of approximately $&lt;font&gt;2.8&lt;/font&gt; million over the remainder of the current year. The Company also maintains an unfunded supplemental retirement benefit plan for certain active and retired Company officers and currently pays $&lt;font&gt;0.3&lt;/font&gt; million in annual benefits to the retired participants.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Other Postretirement Benefits&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;The Company's retirement plan other than pensions (Other Benefits Plan) covers substantially all of its current retired employees. Employees hired after March 31, 2007 are not eligible to participate in this plan. Coverage includes healthcare and life insurance. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company made Other Benefits Plan cash contributions of $&lt;font&gt;0.2&lt;/font&gt; million. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company did not make any Other Benefits Plan cash contributions. The Company expects to make Other Benefits Plan cash contributions of approximately $&lt;font&gt;1.3&lt;/font&gt; million over the remainder of the current year.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"&gt;As part of its 2014 Federal income tax return, the Company adopted the final Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations pertaining to the tax deductibility of costs that qualify as repairs on tangible property. The adoption resulted in a net reduction of $&lt;font&gt;17.6&lt;/font&gt; million in taxes previously remitted to the IRS, for which the Company has already sought and received refunds pertaining to tax years 2012 through 2014 in accordance with IRS regulations. Subsequently, the Company's 2014 federal income tax return was selected for examination by the IRS. It is unknown at this time whether the results of this examination will result in any changes to the filed Federal income tax return.&lt;/p&gt;

Information included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, has been derived from the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 included in the 2015 Form 10-K.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in;"><i>&#160;</i></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"><i>Recent Accounting Guidance </i></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Consolidation - </b>In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that amends the consolidation analysis for variable interest entities (&#147;VIEs&#148;) as well as voting interest entities. The amendments under the new guidance modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities and eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership. This guidance was effective January 1, 2016. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Debt Issuance Costs</b> - In April 2015, the FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet, requiring companies to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of debt. The guidance was effective January 1, 2016. As a result of adopting this guidance, the December 31, 2015 balance sheet was revised, which resulted in decreases of $<font>3.3</font> million to deferred charges and other assets and long-term debt, respectively. Unamortized debt expense of $<font>3.3</font> million was included in long-term debt as of March 31, 2016. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company's statements of income or cash flows.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Deferred Income Taxes &#150; </b>In November 2015<b>, </b>the FASB issued guidance on the classification of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, requiring entities to present them as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This guidance was effective January 1, 2016 and did not have a material impact on the Company's balance sheet.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Revenue Recognition</b> - In May 2014, the FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers. The update replaces most of the existing guidance with a single set of principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The FASB has deferred the effective date of these new revenue recognition standards by one year to January 1, 2018. The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Inventory</b> - In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance on simplifying the measurement of inventory. The new guidance replaces the current lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost or net realizable value test when cost is determined on a first-in, first-out or average cost basis. The guidance is effective January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial<i> </i>Liabilities </b>- In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance which (i) requires all investments in equity securities, including other ownership interests such as partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures and limited liability companies, to be carried at fair value through net income, (ii) requires an incremental recognition and disclosure requirement related to the presentation of fair value changes of financial liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected, (iii) amends several disclosure requirements, including the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value or a description of the changes in the methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, and (iv) requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost at the amount that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The guidance is required to be applied retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the guidance at the date of adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Accounting for Share-Based Payments - </b>In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective January 1, 2017. The Company is currently analyzing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">There are no other new adopted or proposed accounting guidance that the Company is aware of that could have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.</p></div><span></span>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Middlesex-</b>In April 2016, Middlesex filed a petition with the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (the NJBPU) seeking approval to set a tariff rate under a purchased water adjustment clause to recover additional costs of less than $<font>0.1</font> million for the purchase of treated water from a non-affiliated regulated water utility. We cannot predict whether the NJBPU will ultimately approve, deny or reduce the amount of the request.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Tidewater - </b>Effective January 1, 2016, Tidewater increased its Delaware Public Service Commission-approved Distribution System Improvement Charge (DSIC) rate, which is expected to generate $<font>0.2</font> million of annual revenues. A DSIC is a rate-mechanism that allows water utilities to recover investments in, and generate a return on, qualifying capital improvements to their water distribution system made between base rate proceedings.</p>
<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>&#160;</b></p>
<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Pinelands </b>- In April 2016, the NJBPU approved $<font>0.2</font> million and $<font>0.1</font> million increases, respectively, in Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater's annual base water and wastewater rates. In October 2015, the companies had filed petitions with the NJBPU seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately $<font>0.5</font> million per year. The rate filings were necessitated by capital infrastructure investments the companies have made, or have committed to make, increased operations and maintenance costs and lower non-fixed fee revenues. The Pinelands Water base water rate increase will be phased-in over two years.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><b>Twin Lakes - </b>In November 2015, Twin Lakes filed a petition with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission (the PAPUC) seeking permission to increase its base water rates by approximately $<font>0.2</font> million per year. This request was necessitated by capital infrastructure investments Twin Lakes has made, or committed to make, and increased operations and maintenance costs. In March 2016, Twin Lakes, along with the regulatory agencies intervening in the rate matter, submitted a joint petition of settlement with the administrative law judge (ALJ), which recommends a $<font>0.1</font> million rate increase to be phased in over two years. We cannot predict whether the ALJ or, ultimately, the PAPUC will approve, deny, or change the amount of the settlement. A final decision is expected during the second quarter of 2016.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">The Company has identified <font>two</font> reportable segments. One is the regulated business of collecting, treating and distributing water on a retail and wholesale basis to residential, commercial, industrial and fire protection customers in parts of New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania. This segment also includes regulated wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&#160;The Company is subject to regulations as to its rates, services and other matters by New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania with respect to utility services within these states. The other segment is primarily comprised of non-regulated contract services for the operation and maintenance of municipal and private water and wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&#160;Inter-segment transactions relating to operational costs are treated as pass-through expenses. Finance charges on inter-segment loan activities are based on interest rates that are below what would normally be charged by a third party lender.</p>

In connection with the agreement with Perth Amboy, USA-PA entered into a 20-year subcontract with a wastewater operating company for the operation and maintenance of the Perth Amboy wastewater collection system.

(AWM) to operate a leachate pretreatment facility, owned by Monmouth County, at the Monmouth County Reclamation Center in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. Middlesex expects to act as guarantor of AWM's performance through at least August 2018 and is contractually obligated to act as guarantor of AWM's performance through 2028 unless another guarantor, acceptable to Monmouth County, is identified. In addition, Middlesex entered into agreements with AWM and Natural Systems Utilities, Inc. (NSU), the parent company of AWM, whereby, Middlesex earns a fee for providing the guaranty of AWM's performance to Monmouth County, Middlesex provides operational support to the project if necessary, and AWM and NSU, serving as guarantor to Middlesex with respect to the performance of AWM, indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to Monmouth County.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">Middlesex believes it is unlikely any payments would need to be made under Middlesex's guaranty of AWM's performance to Monmouth County. If asked to perform under the guaranty to Monmouth County, and, if AWM and NSU, as guarantor to Middlesex, do not fulfill their obligations to indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to Monmouth County, Middlesex would be required to fulfill the remaining operational commitment of AWM. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the liability recognized in Other Non-Current Liabilities on the balance sheet for the guaranty is approximately $<font>0.2</font> million.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;"><i>Construction</i></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;">The Company has budgeted approximately $<font>47.3</font> million for its construction program in 2016.

The adoption resulted in a net reduction of $<font>17.6</font> million in taxes previously remitted to the IRS, for which the Company has already sought and received refunds pertaining to tax years 2012 through 2014 in accordance with IRS regulations. Subsequently, the Company's 2014 federal income tax return was selected for examination by the IRS. It is unknown at this time whether the results of this examination will result in any changes to the filed Federal income tax return.</p>
