On October 8, 2019, the Delaware Public Service Commission (DEPSC) approved Tidewater&rsquo;s request to purchase the water utility
assets of J.H. Wilkerson and Son, Inc. and transfer the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity in order for Tidewater
to serve the approximate 1,000 customers currently connected to eight community water systems located mostly in eastern Sussex
County, Delaware. The DEPSC also authorized Tidewater to maintain the existing rates that these customers currently pay. The transaction

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><B>Leases - </B>On January 1, 2019, the Company
adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance related to leases which required lessees to recognize a lease
liability and a right-of-use asset. The Company elected the optional transition method of adoption option to apply the requirements
of the standard in the period of adoption with no restatement of prior periods. The Company utilized the package of transition
practical expedients provided by the new guidance, including carrying forward prior conclusions related to contracts that contain
leases and lease classification. The Company also utilized the transition practical expedient permitting entities to forgo the
evaluation of existing land easement arrangements to determine if they contain a lease. Land easement arrangements, or modifications
to existing arrangements, entered into after adoption of this guidance will need to be evaluated to determine if they meet the
definition of a lease. The adoption of this guidance resulted in the recording of a $6.7 million right-of-use asset, a $7.1 million
lease liability and a $0.4 million regulatory asset on the Company&rsquo;s consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. For
further discussion, see &ldquo;<I>Leases</I>&rdquo; in <I>Note 7 &ndash; Commitments and Contingent Liabilities</I>.</P>

the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) approved Middlesex&rsquo;s petition to establish its Purchased Water Adjustment

from a non-affiliated water utility regulated by the NJBPU. A PWAC is a rate mechanism that allows for recovery of increased purchased
water costs between base rate case filings. The PWAC is reset to zero once those increased costs are included in base rates. The

base rates, effective November 4, 2019. In March 2019, Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater had filed petitions with the NJBPU
seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately $0.7 million per year. The requests were necessitated by capital infrastructure
investments both companies had made, and increased operations and maintenance costs.</P>

notifying eligible Investment Plan participants of the specific details of the Rescission Offer.  Investment Plan participants have thirty (30)
days from the notification date to decide to accept or reject the Rescission Offer. Based on the current market price of the

approval, the Company periodically issues long-term debt to fund its investments in utility plant and other assets. To the extent
possible, the Company finances qualifying capital projects under State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan programs in New Jersey and Delaware.
These government programs provide financing at interest rates that are typically below rates available in the broader financial
markets. A portion of the borrowings under the New Jersey SRF is interest-free. Under the New Jersey SRF program, borrowers first
enter into a construction loan agreement with the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank (NJIB) at a below market interest rate. The current
interest rate on construction loan borrowings is zero percent (0%). When construction on the qualifying project is substantially
complete, NJIB will coordinate the conversion of the construction loan into a long-term securitized loan with a portion of the
principal balance having a stated interest rate of zero percent (0%) and a portion of the principal balance at a market interest
rate at the time of closing using the credit rating of the State of New Jersey. The current term of the long-term loans offered
through the NJIB is up to thirty years. The current portion of the principal balance having a stated interest rate of zero percent
(0%) is 75% with the remaining portion of 25% having a market based interest rate.</P>

<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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The Company&rsquo;s revenues are primarily
generated from regulated tariff-based sales of water and wastewater services and non-regulated operation and maintenance contracts
for services on water and wastewater systems owned by others. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control
of a promised good or service is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects
to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The Company&rsquo;s regulated revenue from
contracts with customers is derived from tariff-based sales that result from the obligation to provide water and wastewater services
to residential, industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers. The Company&rsquo;s residential customers are
billed quarterly while most of the Company&rsquo;s industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers are billed monthly.
Payments by customers are due between 15 and 30 days after the invoice date. The Company recognizes revenue as the water and wastewater
services are delivered to customers and records unbilled revenues estimated from the last meter reading date to the end of the
accounting period utilizing factors such as historical customer data, regional weather indicators and general economic conditions
in its service territories. Unearned Revenues and Advance Service Fees include fixed service charge billings in advance of service
provided to Tidewater customers and are recognized as service is provided.</P>

of base service fees, as well as fees for additional billable services provided to customers, are billed monthly and are due within
30 days after the invoice date. The Company considers the amounts billed to represent the value of these services provided to customers.
Certain of these contracts continue through 2022 and thus contain remaining performance obligations for which the Company expects
to recognize revenue in the future. These contracts also contain termination provisions.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">As part of its 2014 Federal income tax return,
the Company adopted the final Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tangible property regulations and changed its accounting method for
the tax treatment of expenditures that qualified as deductible repairs. The adoption resulted in a net reduction of $17.6 million
in taxes previously remitted to the IRS, for which the Company has already sought and received the tax refunds. A reserve provision
against refunded taxes of $2.3 million was recorded in 2015 at the time of filing its change in accounting method based on a possible
challenge by the IRS during an audit examination. The Company&rsquo;s 2014 federal income tax return was subsequently selected
for examination by the IRS. In 2018, the Company increased its income tax reserve provision to $4.1 million. During the first quarter
of 2019, the Company agreed to certain modifications of its accounting method for expenditures that qualify as deductible repairs
and the IRS concluded its audit of the Company&rsquo;s 2014 federal income tax return. The modifications also impacted the Company&rsquo;s
filed 2015, 2016 and 2017 federal income tax returns. In March 2019 and June 2019, the Company paid $0.8 million in income taxes
and $0.1 million in interest, respectively, in connection with the conclusion and closing of the 2014 and 2015 tax return audits.
As of September 30, 2019, the Company has reduced its income tax reserve provision and interest expense liability to $2.4 million
and $0.1 million, respectively. In October 2019, the Company paid $1.9 million in income taxes in connection with the conclusion
and closing of the 2016 and 2017 tax return audits.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Our ability to increase operating income and
net income is based significantly on four factors: weather, adequate and timely rate relief, effective cost management and customer
growth (which are evident in comparison discussions in the Results of Operations section below). Revenues in the first quarter
of 2019 were favorably impacted by Middlesex&rsquo;s April 2018 base water rate increase. Weather patterns experienced in 2017
and 2018, which resulted in lower customer demand for water, have continued to occur in 2019 and have impacted revenues and net
income. Actuarially-determined non-service retirement benefit plan costs are expected to increase in 2019. We continue to implement
plans to further streamline operations and further reduce, and mitigate increases in, operating costs. Changes in customer water
usage habits, as well as increases in capital expenditures and operating costs, are significant factors in determining the timing
and extent of rate increase requests.</P>

had inadvertently sold shares of its common stock through the Investment Plan from August 1, 2018 through September 3, 2019 (Eligible
Period) after the registration statement covering sales through the Investment Plan had expired and therefore was no longer effective.
In October 2019, the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors approved a plan to voluntarily offer a right of rescission (Rescission
Offer) to Investment Plan participants who purchased shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock during the Eligible Period. During
the Eligible Period, Investment Plan participants purchased 232,643 shares of Company common stock at an average price of $55.79
per share. The Rescission Offer ends in November 2019. Based on the current market price of the Company&rsquo;s common stock, the
Company does not expect that the exercise of any applicable rescission rights will have a material impact on its results of operations,
financial condition or liquidity. For more information, see discussion under &ldquo;<I>Common Stock</I>&rdquo; in <I>Note 3 &ndash;

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 2021 to 2059. Over the next twelve
months, approximately $7.2 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>

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>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company&rsquo;s
disclosure controls and procedures was conducted by the Company&rsquo;s Chief Executive Officer along with the Company&rsquo;s
Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Company&rsquo;s Chief Executive Officer and the Company&rsquo;s Chief
Financial Officer concluded that the Company&rsquo;s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period
covered by this Report. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent
fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.</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">Disclosure controls and procedures are controls
and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed or submitted
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and
Exchange Commission&rsquo;s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and
communicated to management, including the Company&rsquo;s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.</P>

(3%) in excess of the interest rate in effect from time to time under this Note but not more than the maximum rate allowed by law

of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any
agents or attorneys which the Bank may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Bank of
carrying a loan that is in default. The Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just

under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Bank of a manually signed paper Communication which

Wilkerson and Son, Inc. and transfer the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity in order for Tidewater&#13;to serve the approximate 1,000 customers currently connected to eight community water systems located mostly in eastern Sussex&#13;County, Delaware.

The Company elected the optional transition method of adoption option to apply the requirements&#13;of the standard in the period of adoption with no restatement of prior periods. The Company utilized the package of transition&#13;practical expedients provided by the new guidance, including carrying forward prior conclusions related to contracts that contain&#13;leases and lease classification. The Company also utilized the transition practical expedient permitting entities to forgo the&#13;evaluation of existing land easement arrangements to determine if they contain a lease. Land easement arrangements, or modifications&#13;to existing arrangements, entered into after adoption of this guidance will need to be evaluated to determine if they meet the&#13;definition of a lease. The adoption of this guidance resulted in the recording of a $6.7 million right-of-use asset, a $7.1 million&#13;lease liability and a $0.4 million regulatory asset on the Company&amp;#8217;s consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019.

A PWAC is a rate mechanism that allows for recovery of increased purchased&#13;water costs between base rate case filings. The PWAC is reset to zero once those increased costs are included in base rates.

In March 2019, Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater had filed petitions with the NJBPU&#13;seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately $0.7 million per year.

This request was necessitated by capital infrastructure investments Twin Lakes has made and increased operations&#13;and maintenance costs. We cannot predict whether the PAPUC will ultimately approve, deny, or reduce the amount of the request.&#13;A decision by the PAPUC is not expected before the first quarter of 2020.&lt;/p&gt;</us-gaap:PublicUtilitiesDisclosureTextBlock>

The adoption resulted in a net reduction of $17.6 million&#13;in taxes previously remitted to the IRS, for which the Company has already sought and received the tax refunds. A reserve provision&#13;against refunded taxes of $2.3 million was recorded in 2015 at the time of filing its change in accounting method based on a possible&#13;challenge by the IRS during an audit examination. The Company&amp;#8217;s 2014 federal income tax return was subsequently selected&#13;for examination by the IRS. In 2018, the Company increased its income tax reserve provision to $4.1 million. During the first quarter&#13;of 2019, the Company agreed to certain modifications of its accounting method for expenditures that qualify as deductible repairs&#13;and the IRS concluded its audit of the Company&amp;#8217;s 2014 federal income tax return. The modifications also impacted the Company&amp;#8217;s&#13;filed 2015, 2016 and 2017 federal income tax returns.

By filing&#13;the Prospectus Supplement the 232,643 previously unregistered shares are deemed registered. Investment Plan participants have thirty&#13;(30) days from the notification date to decide to accept or reject the Rescission Offer. Based on the current market price of the&#13;Company&amp;#8217;s common stock, the Company does not expect that the exercise of any applicable rescission rights under the Rescission&#13;Offer by participants will have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;For the nine months ended September 30, 2019,&#13;3,000 shares (approximately $0.3 million) of the Company&amp;#8217;s no par $8.00 Series Cumulative and Convertible Preferred Stock&#13;were converted into 41,142 shares of common stock.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In May 2019, Middlesex received approval from&#13;the NJBPU to issue and sell up to 1,500,000 shares of its common stock in one or more transactions through December 31, 2022.

To the extent&#13;possible, the Company finances qualifying capital projects under State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan programs in New Jersey and Delaware.&#13;These government programs provide financing at interest rates that are typically below rates available in the broader financial&#13;markets. A portion of the borrowings under the New Jersey SRF is interest-free. Under the New Jersey SRF program, borrowers first&#13;enter into a construction loan agreement with the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank (NJIB) at a below market interest rate. The current&#13;interest rate on construction loan borrowings is zero percent (0%). When construction on the qualifying project is substantially&#13;complete, NJIB will coordinate the conversion of the construction loan into a long-term securitized loan with a portion of the&#13;principal balance having a stated interest rate of zero percent (0%) and a portion of the principal balance at a market interest&#13;rate at the time of closing using the credit rating of the State of New Jersey. The current term of the long-term loans offered&#13;through the NJIB is up to thirty years. The current portion of the principal balance having a stated interest rate of zero percent&#13;(0%) is 75% with the remaining portion of 25% having a market based interest rate.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;The NJIB generally schedules its long-term debt financings in May&#13;and November.

The final maturity date for both bonds is August 1, 2047, with scheduled&#13;debt service payments over the life of the loans.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In 2019, the NJIB de-obligated principal payments&#13;of $0.1 million on Series NN of the Company&amp;#8217;s First Mortgage Bonds.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&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;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In order to help ensure adherence to its comprehensive&#13;financing plan, Middlesex received approval from the NJBPU in February 2019 to issue and sell up to $140 million of First Mortgage&#13;Bonds (FMB) through the NJEDA in one or more transactions through December 31, 2022. Because the interest paid to the bondholders&#13;is exempt from federal and New Jersey income taxes, the interest rate on debt issued through the NJEDA is generally lower than&#13;otherwise achievable in the traditional taxable corporate bond market. However, the interest received by the bondholder is subject&#13;to the Alternative Minimum Tax.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In August 2019, Middlesex priced and closed&#13;on a NJEDA debt financing transaction of $53.7 million by issuing FMBs designated as Series 2019A ($32.5 million at coupon interest&#13;rate of 4.0%) and Series 2019B ($21.2 million at coupon interest rate of 5.0%). The proceeds, including an issuance premium of&#13;$7.1 million, are being used to finance several projects under the Water For Tomorrow capital program initiated by the Company&#13;to upgrade and replace aging water utility infrastructure. The total proceeds of $60.8 million, initially recorded as Restricted&#13;Cash on the balance sheet, is held in escrow by a bond trustee and are drawn down by requisition for the qualifying projects. Through&#13;September 30, 2019, Middlesex has drawn a total of $7.6 million and currently expects to draw the remaining $53.2 million of proceeds,&#13;currently included in Restricted Cash, through the third quarter of 2021.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&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;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In March 2018, the DEPSC approved Tidewater&amp;#8217;s&#13;request to borrow up to $0.9 million under the Delaware SRF program to fund the replacement of an entire water distribution system&#13;of a small Delaware community. Tidewater closed on the SRF loan in May 2018. In April 2019, Tidewater received approval from the&#13;DEPSC to increase the borrowing to $1.7 million based on revised project cost estimates. Tidewater closed on the additional SRF&#13;loan in October 2019 and immediately began drawing on the combined loan amount with expected draws continuing through the first&#13;quarter of 2020.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Fair Value of Financial Instruments -&lt;/b&gt;&#13;The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosure for financial instruments&#13;for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets&#13;for cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable and notes payable approximate their respective fair values due&#13;to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of FMB and State Revolving Fund Bonds (collectively, the Bonds)&#13;issued by Middlesex is based on quoted market prices for similar issues. Under the fair value hierarchy, the fair value of cash&#13;and cash equivalents is classified as a Level 1 measurement and the fair value of notes payable and the Bonds in the table below&#13;are classified as Level 2 measurements. The carrying amount and fair value of the Bonds were as follows:&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 1in; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" style="width: 80%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; border-collapse: collapse"&gt;&#13;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top"&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td colspan="2" style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;September 30, 2019&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td colspan="2" style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;December 31, 2018&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&#13;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top"&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="width: 31%; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="width: 21%; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Carrying&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="width: 14%; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Fair&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="width: 20%; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Carrying&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="width: 14%; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Fair &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&#13;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top"&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Amount&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Value&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Amount&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Value&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&#13;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;Bonds&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;&amp;#160;$151,361&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;&amp;#160;$154,355&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;&amp;#160;$101,411&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&#13;    &lt;td style="padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-left: 5.4pt; text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 10pt"&gt;&amp;#160;$102,789&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&#13;&lt;/table&gt;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;For other long-term debt for which there was&#13;no quoted market price and there is not an active trading market, it was not practicable to estimate their fair value (for details,&#13;including carrying value, interest rate and due date on these series of long-term debt, please refer to those series noted as &amp;#8220;Amortizing&#13;Secured Note&amp;#8221;, &amp;#8220;State Revolving Trust Note&amp;#8221; and &amp;#8220;Construction Loans&amp;#8221; on the Condensed Consolidated&#13;Statements of Capital Stock and Long-Term Debt).

This segment also includes regulated&#13;wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&amp;#160;The Company is subject to regulations as to its rates, services and other matters&#13;by New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania with respect to utility services within these states. The other segment is primarily comprised&#13;of non-regulated contract services for the operation and maintenance of municipal and private water and wastewater systems in New&#13;Jersey and Delaware.&amp;#160;Inter-segment transactions relating to operational costs are treated as pass-through expenses. Finance&#13;charges on inter-segment loan activities are based on interest rates that are below what would normally be charged by a third party&#13;lender.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;

The performance guaranty is effective through 2028 unless another guarantor, acceptable&#13;to the County, replaces Middlesex before such date.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the liability recognized in Other&#13;Non-Current Liabilities on the balance sheet for the guaranty is approximately $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Leases&lt;/b&gt; &lt;i&gt;- &lt;/i&gt;The Company determines&#13;if an arrangement is a lease at inception.

Lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the&#13;present value of lease payments over the lease term.

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control&#13;of a promised good or service is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects&#13;to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&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;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company&amp;#8217;s regulated revenue from&#13;contracts with customers is derived from tariff-based sales that result from the obligation to provide water and wastewater services&#13;to residential, industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers. The Company&amp;#8217;s residential customers are&#13;billed quarterly while most of the Company&amp;#8217;s industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers are billed monthly.&#13;Payments by customers are due between 15 and 30 days after the invoice date. The Company recognizes revenue as the water and wastewater&#13;services are delivered to customers and records unbilled revenues estimated from the last meter reading date to the end of the&#13;accounting period utilizing factors such as historical customer data, regional weather indicators and general economic conditions&#13;in its service territories. Unearned Revenues and Advance Service Fees include fixed service charge billings in advance of service&#13;provided to Tidewater customers and are recognized as service is provided.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 146.25pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Non-regulated service contract revenues consist&#13;of base service fees, as well as fees for additional billable services provided to customers, are billed monthly and are due within&#13;30 days after the invoice date.

These contracts also contain termination provisions.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Substantially all operating revenues and accounts&#13;receivable are from contracts with customers.

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">As part of its 2014 Federal income tax return,
the Company adopted the final Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tangible property regulations and changed its accounting method for
the tax treatment of expenditures that qualified as deductible repairs. The adoption resulted in a net reduction of $17.6 million
in taxes previously remitted to the IRS, for which the Company has already sought and received the tax refunds. A reserve provision
against refunded taxes of $2.3 million was recorded in 2015 at the time of filing its change in accounting method based on a possible
challenge by the IRS during an audit examination. The Company&#8217;s 2014 federal income tax return was subsequently selected
for examination by the IRS. In 2018, the Company increased its income tax reserve provision to $4.1 million. During the first quarter
of 2019, the Company agreed to certain modifications of its accounting method for expenditures that qualify as deductible repairs
and the IRS concluded its audit of the Company&#8217;s 2014 federal income tax return. The modifications also impacted the Company&#8217;s
filed 2015, 2016 and 2017 federal income tax returns. In March 2019 and June 2019, the Company paid $0.8 million in income taxes
and $0.1 million in interest, respectively, in connection with the conclusion and closing of the 2014 and 2015 tax return audits.
As of September 30, 2019, the Company has reduced its income tax reserve provision and interest expense liability to $2.4 million
and $0.1 million, respectively. In October 2019, the Company paid $1.9 million in income taxes in connection with the conclusion
and closing of the 2016 and 2017 tax return audits.</p><span></span>

<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>Middlesex &#8211; </b>In December 2018,
the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) approved Middlesex&#8217;s petition to establish its Purchased Water Adjustment
Clause (PWAC) tariff rate to recover additional annual costs of less than $0.1 million, primarily for the purchase of treated water
from a non-affiliated water utility regulated by the NJBPU. A PWAC is a rate mechanism that allows for recovery of increased purchased
water costs between base rate case filings. The PWAC is reset to zero once those increased costs are included in base rates. The
PWAC tariff rate became effective on January 1, 2019.</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>Tidewater - </b>Effective July 1, 2019,
Tidewater reset its DEPSC approved Distribution System Improvement Charge rate, which is expected to generate revenues of approximately
$0.5 million annually.</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"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif">In
February 2019, Tidewater received approval from the DEPSC to reduce its rates, effective March 1, 2019, to reflect the lower corporate
income tax rate enacted by the </font>Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (Tax Act)<font style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif">,
resulting in an overall rate decrease of 3.35%, or $1.0 million of revenues, on an annual basis. The DEPSC also approved a one-time
credit of $0.7 million to customers&#8217; accounts related to the lower corporate income tax rate.</font></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>Pinelands - </b>On October 25, 2019, Pinelands
Water and Pinelands Wastewater concluded their base rate case matters when the NJBPU approved a $0.5 million increase in annual
base rates, effective November 4, 2019. In March 2019, Pinelands Water and Pinelands Wastewater had filed petitions with the NJBPU
seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately $0.7 million per year. The requests were necessitated by capital infrastructure
investments both companies had made, and increased operations and maintenance costs.</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>Twin Lakes - </b>In July 2019, Twin Lakes
filed a petition with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission (PAPUC) seeking permission to increase base rates by approximately
$0.2 million per year. This request was necessitated by capital infrastructure investments Twin Lakes has made and increased operations
and maintenance costs. We cannot predict whether the PAPUC will ultimately approve, deny, or reduce the amount of the request.
A decision by the PAPUC is not expected before the first quarter of 2020.</p><span></span>

<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.&#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>

adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance related to leases which required lessees to recognize a lease
liability and a right-of-use asset. The Company elected the optional transition method of adoption option to apply the requirements
of the standard in the period of adoption with no restatement of prior periods. The Company utilized the package of transition
practical expedients provided by the new guidance, including carrying forward prior conclusions related to contracts that contain
leases and lease classification. The Company also utilized the transition practical expedient permitting entities to forgo the
evaluation of existing land easement arrangements to determine if they contain a lease. Land easement arrangements, or modifications
to existing arrangements, entered into after adoption of this guidance will need to be evaluated to determine if they meet the
definition of a lease. The adoption of this guidance resulted in the recording of a $6.7 million right-of-use asset, a $7.1 million
lease liability and a $0.4 million regulatory asset on the Company&#8217;s consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. For
further discussion, see &#8220;<i>Leases</i>&#8221; in <i>Note 7 &#8211; Commitments and Contingent Liabilities</i>.</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">The Company&#8217;s revenues are primarily
generated from regulated tariff-based sales of water and wastewater services and non-regulated operation and maintenance contracts
for services on water and wastewater systems owned by others. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control
of a promised good or service is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects
to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.</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">The Company&#8217;s regulated revenue from
contracts with customers is derived from tariff-based sales that result from the obligation to provide water and wastewater services
to residential, industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers. The Company&#8217;s residential customers are
billed quarterly while most of the Company&#8217;s industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers are billed monthly.
Payments by customers are due between 15 and 30 days after the invoice date. The Company recognizes revenue as the water and wastewater
services are delivered to customers and records unbilled revenues estimated from the last meter reading date to the end of the
accounting period utilizing factors such as historical customer data, regional weather indicators and general economic conditions
in its service territories. Unearned Revenues and Advance Service Fees include fixed service charge billings in advance of service
provided to Tidewater customers and are recognized as service is provided.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 146.25pt">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Non-regulated service contract revenues consist
of base service fees, as well as fees for additional billable services provided to customers, are billed monthly and are due within
30 days after the invoice date. The Company considers the amounts billed to represent the value of these services provided to customers.
Certain of these contracts continue through 2022 and thus contain remaining performance obligations for which the Company expects
to recognize revenue in the future. These contracts also contain termination provisions.</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">Substantially all operating revenues and accounts
receivable are from contracts with customers. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-offs
combined with an evaluation of current economic conditions within its service territories.</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">The Company&#8217;s contracts do not contain
any significant financing components.</p>

with the County of Monmouth, New Jersey (County), Middlesex serves as guarantor of the performance of Applied Water Management,
Inc. (AWM), an unaffiliated wastewater contractor, to operate a County-owned leachate pretreatment facility at the Monmouth County
Reclamation Center in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. The performance guaranty is effective through 2028 unless another guarantor, acceptable
to the County, replaces Middlesex before such date. Under agreements with AWM and Natural Systems Utilities, LLC (NSU), the parent
company of AWM, Middlesex earns a fee for providing the performance guaranty. In addition, Middlesex may provide operational support
to the facility, as needed, and AWM and NSU, serving as guarantor to Middlesex with respect to the performance of AWM, have indemnified
Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to the County.</p>

under the guaranty to the 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 the County, Middlesex would be required to fulfill
the remaining operational commitment of AWM. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the liability recognized in Other
Non-Current Liabilities on the balance sheet for the guaranty is approximately $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively.</p>

present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company&#8217;s operating lease does not provide an implicit discount

ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, there were 221,558 common shares ($12.4 million) and 21,001 common shares (approximately $0.9
million), respectively, issued under the Middlesex Water Company Investment Plan (Investment Plan). On January 2, 2019, the Company
began offering shares of its common stock for purchase at a 5% discount to participants in the Investment Plan. In August 2019,
the 200,000 share purchase limit established for the 5% discount program was reached and the program was concluded.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In September 2019, the Company determined it
had inadvertently sold shares of its common stock through the Investment Plan from August 1, 2018 through September 3, 2019 (Eligible
Period) after the registration statement covering sales through the Investment Plan had expired and therefore was no longer effective.
Under applicable federal securities laws, participants in the Investment Plan who purchased shares of common stock have a right
to rescind their Eligible Period purchases and require the Company to repurchase these shares for an amount equal to the price
paid by the participant, less any dividends paid on the purchased shares, plus interest.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In October 2019, the Company&#8217;s Board
of Directors approved a plan to voluntarily offer a right of rescission (Rescission Offer) to Investment Plan participants who
purchased shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock during the Eligible Period. During the Eligible Period, Investment Plan participants
purchased 232,643 shares at an average price of $55.79 per share.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">On October 11, 2019, the Company filed a supplement
to the Investment Plan prospectus (Prospectus Supplement) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission registering
the Rescission Offer and notifying eligible Investment Plan participants of the specific details of the Rescission Offer. By filing
the Prospectus Supplement the 232,643 previously unregistered shares are deemed registered. Investment Plan participants have thirty
(30) days from the notification date to decide to accept or reject the Rescission Offer. Based on the current market price of the
Company&#8217;s common stock, the Company does not expect that the exercise of any applicable rescission rights under the Rescission
Offer by participants will have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><b>Long-term Debt - </b>Subject to regulatory
approval, the Company periodically issues long-term debt to fund its investments in utility plant and other assets. To the extent
possible, the Company finances qualifying capital projects under State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan programs in New Jersey and Delaware.
These government programs provide financing at interest rates that are typically below rates available in the broader financial
markets. A portion of the borrowings under the New Jersey SRF is interest-free. Under the New Jersey SRF program, borrowers first
enter into a construction loan agreement with the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank (NJIB) at a below market interest rate. The current
interest rate on construction loan borrowings is zero percent (0%). When construction on the qualifying project is substantially
complete, NJIB will coordinate the conversion of the construction loan into a long-term securitized loan with a portion of the
principal balance having a stated interest rate of zero percent (0%) and a portion of the principal balance at a market interest
rate at the time of closing using the credit rating of the State of New Jersey. The current term of the long-term loans offered
through the NJIB is up to thirty years. The current portion of the principal balance having a stated interest rate of zero percent
(0%) is 75% with the remaining portion of 25% having a market based interest rate.</p>

financing plan, Middlesex received approval from the NJBPU in February 2019 to issue and sell up to $140 million of First Mortgage
Bonds (FMB) through the NJEDA in one or more transactions through December 31, 2022. Because the interest paid to the bondholders
is exempt from federal and New Jersey income taxes, the interest rate on debt issued through the NJEDA is generally lower than
otherwise achievable in the traditional taxable corporate bond market. However, the interest received by the bondholder is subject
to the Alternative Minimum Tax.</p>

$7.1 million, are being used to finance several projects under the Water For Tomorrow capital program initiated by the Company
to upgrade and replace aging water utility infrastructure. The total proceeds of $60.8 million, initially recorded as Restricted
Cash on the balance sheet, is held in escrow by a bond trustee and are drawn down by requisition for the qualifying projects. Through
September 30, 2019, Middlesex has drawn a total of $7.6 million and currently expects to draw the remaining $53.2 million of proceeds,

DEPSC to increase the borrowing to $1.7 million based on revised project cost estimates. Tidewater closed on the additional SRF

for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets

to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of FMB and State Revolving Fund Bonds (collectively, the Bonds)
issued by Middlesex is based on quoted market prices for similar issues. Under the fair value hierarchy, the fair value of cash
