STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We are a public utility holding company headquartered in Hampton, New Hampshire. We are subject to regulation as a holding company system by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) under the Energy Policy Act of 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our principal business is the retail distribution of electricity
in the southeastern seacoast and capital city areas of New Hampshire and the retail distribution of both electricity and natural gas in the greater Fitchburg area of north central Massachusetts. We have two distribution utility subsidiaries, Unitil
Energy Systems, Inc. (UES), which operates in New Hampshire, and Fitchburg Gas and Electric Light Company (FG&amp;E), which operates in Massachusetts. UES, through its predecessors Concord Electric Company and Exeter&nbsp;&amp; Hampton Electric
Company, was incorporated in 1901. FG&amp;E was incorporated in 1852. UES and FG&amp;E are collectively referred to as our &#147;retail distribution utilities.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our retail distribution utilities serve approximately 100,000 electric customers and 15,100 natural gas customers in their service territories. Our retail distribution utilities are local &#147;pipes and wires&#148;
utility distribution companies with a combined investment in Net Utility Plant of $249.4 million at March&nbsp;31, 2008. We do not own or operate electric generating facilities or major transmission facilities and substantially all of our utility
assets are dedicated to the local delivery of electricity and natural gas to our customers. Our total revenue was $262.9 million in 2007, which includes revenue to recover the cost of purchased electricity and natural gas in rates on a fully
reconciling basis. As a result of this reconciling rate structure, our earnings are not affected by changes in purchased electricity and natural gas costs. Earnings applicable to holders of our common stock for 2007 were $8.6 million. Substantially
all of our earnings are derived from the return on investment in our local distribution utility operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our business strategy is to be
a leader in the reliable and cost effective management of a growing level of local electric and natural gas distribution assets. Our growth initiatives include evaluation of organic growth opportunities as well as strategic acquisitions. As part of
our growth strategy, we have agreed to purchase (i)&nbsp;all of the outstanding capital stock of Northern Utilities, Inc. (Northern Utilities), a local natural gas distribution utility serving customers in Maine and New Hampshire, from Bay State Gas
Company (Bay State) and (ii)&nbsp;all of the outstanding capital stock of Granite State Gas Transmission, Inc. (Granite State), an interstate gas pipeline company primarily serving the needs of Northern Utilities, from NiSource Inc. (NiSource)

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">metropolitan areas such as Northern Utilities&#146; service territory. Additionally, Northern Utilities will provide further diversification to our
operations with respect to geography (into Maine) and utility business mix (between our gas and electric divisions). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Reduced
Operating Expenses and Cash Flow Savings</I></B>. We project that the Proposed Acquisitions will produce annual system-wide synergy savings of approximately $5.6 million, of which approximately $2.3 million is expected to be directly realized by
Northern Utilities and Granite State. We expect to begin realizing these synergies within the first full year after integration. These projected savings are primarily due to operating efficiencies obtained from economies of scale, efficient use of
our personnel, infrastructure and information systems, achievement of efficiencies associated with the provision of shared utility services and adoption of best practices associated with these shared utility services. Our expected achievement of
these system-wide synergies should allow Northern Utilities and our other retail distribution utilities to improve their respective earnings and to stabilize the rates charged to their respective customers. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Opportunity for Improved Regulated Utility Operating Earnings through the Execution of Our Regulatory Plan</I></B>. We believe there is an
opportunity to stabilize and improve the operating earnings of Northern Utilities and Granite State by executing a consistent and well-structured regulatory plan that provides Northern Utilities and Granite State with an opportunity to earn a
reasonable rate of return. Northern Utilities has not sought base rate relief since 1983 in Maine or since 2002 in New Hampshire. Our regulatory plan will seek to maximize the benefits of the expected synergies discussed above for Northern Utilities
and Granite State and provide Northern Utilities and Granite State with an opportunity to earn a reasonable rate of return on their utility rate base. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Increased Market Capitalization and Liquidity</I></B>. We expect that the Proposed Acquisitions and this offering will increase our market capitalization by approximately 50% and increase our shareholders&#146;
liquidity. As a result, we and our shareholders should benefit from the long-term financial stability of a larger, more liquid company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our
Board of Directors also believes that the Proposed Acquisitions and related transactions will result in the following significant benefits to our other stakeholders: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Increased Commitment to Local Communities</I></B>. We expect the Proposed Acquisitions to demonstrate our increased commitment to local communities in New Hampshire and Maine through the creation of employment
opportunities and the expansion of our local presence. We anticipate retaining all of Northern Utilities&#146; 78 current employees and estimate that we will add approximately 50 new positions, while still achieving the expected synergies discussed
above, following the Proposed Acquisitions. The new positions will be primarily in the areas of gas operations and customer service, which are necessary to provide shared utility services previously provided by NiSource and included in the Northern
Utilities and Granite State operating expenses. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Improved Customer Convenience and Service</I></B>. We anticipate that the overlap
between portions of our electric service territory in southeastern New Hampshire and portions of Northern Utilities&#146; natural gas service territory will increase the convenience for many of Northern Utilities&#146; customers who will be doing
business with a single gas and electric distribution utility following the Proposed Acquisitions. Additionally, we estimate that we will add several new positions to our local customer service department following the Proposed Acquisitions.

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Growing Service Territory</I></B>. Our operations are located in the southeastern seacoast and state capital regions of New Hampshire, as well as in
the greater Fitchburg area of north central Massachusetts. Together, these three service territories provide a diverse and growing customer base. With the addition of Northern Utilities and Granite State, we will add approximately 52,000 natural gas
customers in the local region and extend our operations into Maine. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Regulated Asset Base</I></B>. Our core assets consist of local
distribution facilities (pipes and wires) necessary for the delivery of our customers&#146; electric and natural gas supply needs within our service territories and regulatory assets related to our regulated utility operations. Our electric and
natural gas distribution assets and regulatory assets, from which we derive substantially all of our operating income, provide stable earnings and cash flow. We expect the Proposed Acquisitions to increase our asset base by approximately 51%
contributing to significant growth of our local gas distribution facilities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Diversified Customer Base</I></B>. Our customers are a
diversified mix of residential, commercial and industrial customers, with no single customer representing more than 5% of our total revenues. Our sales to large commercial and industrial customers are not concentrated in one industry segment, but
vary from government facilities to large retail outlets, colleges, hospitals and a broad range of industrial companies that reflect the diverse nature of the communities that we serve. The Proposed Acquisitions will increase our customer base by
approximately 52,000 retail natural gas customers and will provide further diversification to our operations with respect to geography (into Maine) and utility business mix (between our gas and electric divisions). </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Efficient and Flexible Operating Structure</I></B>. We believe that due in part to our size and the local proximity of our utility operations, we
are able to expeditiously and effectively respond to changing regulatory and public policy initiatives, to leverage new technology solutions that significantly improve productivity and customer service, and to implement organizational changes that
improve our performance. We have a proven track record of successfully transitioning our company to meet the business and operational challenges affecting our industry. The Proposed Acquisitions will bring together similarly sized local utilities
that will continue to provide a high level of service to their local communities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Historic Dividend Stability</I></B>. Since our
incorporation in 1984, we have continuously paid quarterly dividends and we have never reduced our dividend rate, while still increasing our investment in our utility distribution facilities. Upon the completion of the Proposed Acquisitions, we
expect to maintain our current dividend policy while providing for future growth of earnings available to shareholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Experienced
Management Team</I></B>. Our senior management team is highly experienced in the utility industry. Our Chairman and CEO, Robert Schoenberger, has 30 years of industry experience. Our senior management team as a whole averages approximately 24 years
experience in the industry and 16 years experience with us. The current management in place is well equipped and prepared to lead a successful integration of Northern Utilities and Granite State. </FONT></P> <P

to EPS of $0.30 for the three months ended June&nbsp;30, 2007. Earnings for the three months ended June&nbsp;30, 2008 reflect higher gas utility sales margins and lower interest expense offset by higher operating expenses and depreciation in the

or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. We have identified a number of these factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31,
2008, all of which are specifically incorporated by reference into this prospectus. See the section entitled <I>Where You Can Find More Information</I>. In addition, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties referred to below or

profitability. </I></B>We are subject to comprehensive regulation by federal and state regulatory authorities, which significantly influences our operating environment and our ability to recover costs from our customers. In particular, we are
regulated by the FERC and state regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over public utilities, including the NHPUC and the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities (MDPU). Upon completion of the Proposed Acquisitions, the portion of Northern
Utilities&#146; operations in Maine will be regulated by the MPUC. These authorities regulate many aspects of our operations, including, but not limited to, construction and maintenance of facilities, operations, safety, issuance of securities,
accounting matters, transactions between affiliates, the rates that we can charge customers and the rate of return that we are allowed to realize. Our ability to obtain rate adjustments to maintain our current rate of return depends upon regulatory
action under applicable statutes, rules and regulations, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain rate adjustments or continue receiving our current authorized rates of return. These regulatory authorities are also empowered to impose
financial penalties and other sanctions on us if we are found to have violated statutes and regulations governing our utility operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">We are unable to predict the impact on our operating results from the regulatory activities of any of these agencies. Although we have attempted to actively manage the rate making process and have had recent success in obtaining rate
adjustments, we can offer no assurances as to future success in the rate making process. Despite our requests, these regulatory commissions have authority under applicable statutes, rules and regulations to leave our rates unchanged, grant increases
or order decreases in such rates. They have similar authority with respect to the recovery of our electricity and natural gas supply costs incurred by UES, FG&amp;E and Northern Utilities. In the event that we are unable to recover these costs or
recovery of these costs were to be significantly delayed, our operating results could be materially adversely affected. Changes in regulations or the imposition of additional regulations could also have an adverse effect on our operating results.

Unitil Power Corp. (Unitil Power) under long-term contract buyout agreements. Because FG&amp;E and Unitil Power remain ultimately responsible for purchase power payments underlying these long-term buyout agreements, FG&amp;E and Unitil Power could
incur additional stranded costs were they required to resell such divested entitlements prior to the end of their term for amounts less than the amounts agreed to under the existing long-term buyout agreements. We expect that any such additional
stranded costs would be recovered from our customers, although such recovery would require approval from the MDPU or NHPUC, the receipt of which cannot be assured. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

future growth in our business. As a result, adverse changes in the economy may have negative effects on our revenues, operating results and financial condition. Similarly, Northern Utilities&#146; and Granite State&#146;s businesses are influenced

August&nbsp;17, 2006, the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA) was signed into law. Included in the PPA are new minimum funding rules which will go into effect for plan years beginning in 2008. The funding target will be 100% of a plan&#146;s
liability with any shortfall amortized over seven years, with lower (92% &#150; 100%) funding targets available to well-funded plans during the transition period. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We made cash contributions of $2.8 million, $2.5 million and $2.5 million to our pension plan in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which exceeded minimum funding requirements. If the valuation of capital markets were
to significantly decline from current levels, we may be required to make cash contributions to our pension plans substantially in excess of the levels currently anticipated, which could adversely affect our financial condition. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.&nbsp;158, &#147;Employers&#146;
Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;158), which requires companies to record on their balance sheets the funded status of their retirement benefit obligations (RBO). We have recognized a
liability for the projected RBO of our plans and a corresponding Regulatory Asset, to recognize the future collection of these obligations in electric and gas retail rates. In the event that we are unable to recover these costs or recovery of these
costs were to be significantly delayed, our operating results could be materially adversely affected. See Note 8 to our financial statements and supplementary data contained in Part II, Item&nbsp;8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007, which is incorporated herein by reference. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Increases in interest rates could have a negative
impact on our financial condition. </I></B>Our utility subsidiaries have ongoing capital expenditure and cash funding requirements which they frequently fund by issuing short and long-term debt. Changes in interest rates do not affect interest
expense associated with presently outstanding fixed rate long-term debt securities. However, changes in interest rates may affect the interest rate and corresponding interest expense on any new long-term debt securities that are issued. In addition,
short-term debt borrowings are typically at variable rates of interest. As a result, changes in short- term interest rates will increase or decrease our interest expense associated with short-term borrowings. Increases in interest rates generally
will increase our borrowing costs and could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

of electric sales, which are recorded as Purchased Electricity and Conservation&nbsp;&amp; Load Management (C&amp;LM) in Operating Expenses. The decrease in Total Electric Operating Revenues in the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2008 reflects
lower Purchased Electricity costs of $5.3 million, lower C&amp;LM revenues of $0.4 million and lower sales margin of $0.4 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Purchased Electricity and C&amp;LM revenues decreased a combined $5.7 million, or 9.1%, of Total Electric Operating Revenues in the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007, reflecting lower electric kWh
sales, an increase in the amount of electricity purchased by customers directly from third-party suppliers and lower electric commodity prices. Purchased Electricity revenues include the recovery of the cost of electric supply as well as other
energy supply related restructuring costs, including long-term power supply contract buyout costs. C&amp;LM revenues include the recovery of the cost of energy efficiency and conservation programs. We recover the cost of Purchased Electricity and
C&amp;LM in our rates at cost on a pass-through basis. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Electric sales margin was lower by $0.4 million in the three months ended
March&nbsp;31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 due to lower electric kWh sales volumes, partially offset by higher electric base rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Gas

reflects a milder winter heating season this year and lower average usage by our customers reflecting a slowing economy and energy conservation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

decrease their energy costs. Programs are tailored to residential, small business and large business customer groups and provide educational materials, technical assistance and rebates that contribute toward the cost of purchasing and installing
approved measures. Approximately 90% of these costs are related to electric operations and 10% to gas operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Total C&amp;LM expenses

interest is accrued on these balances and will produce either interest income or interest expense. Interest income is recorded on an under-collection of costs, which creates a regulatory asset to be recovered in future periods when rates are reset.

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest Expense, Net increased by $0.5 million in the three month period ended March&nbsp;31, 2008
compared to the same period in 2007. Interest expense on long-term borrowings increased due to the issuance of new long-term debt by us on May&nbsp;2, 2007. We issued and sold $20 million of Senior Long-Term Notes at a coupon rate of 6.33% through a
private placement to institutional investors. We utilized the proceeds from the long-term Note financing to refinance existing short-term debt and for other corporate purposes of our principal utility subsidiaries. The resulting reduction in average
daily short-term bank borrowings lowered short-term interest expense for the first quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. An adjustment of $0.2 million related to earnings on funds used for capital projects ordered in conjunction with
our recently approved electric base distribution rate increase in Massachusetts and lower carrying charges earned on regulatory assets also contributed to the increase in Interest Expense, Net. </FONT></P> <P

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We require capital to fund utility plant additions, working capital and other utility expenditures recovered in subsequent and future periods through
regulated rates. The capital necessary to meet these requirements is derived primarily from internally-generated funds, which consist of cash flows from operating activities, excluding payment of dividends. We initially supplement internally
generated funds through bank borrowings, as needed, under unsecured short-term bank lines. We had short-term debt outstanding through bank borrowings of $16.7 and $29.7 at March&nbsp;31, 2008 and March&nbsp;31, 2007, respectively. In addition, we
had approximately $4.0 million in cash at March&nbsp;31, 2008. Periodically, we replace portions of our short-term debt with long-term financings more closely matched to the long-term nature of our utility assets. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The continued availability of these methods of financing, as well as our choice of a specific form of security, will depend on many factors including, but
not limited to: security market conditions; general economic climate; regulatory approvals; the ability to meet covenant issuance restrictions, if any; the level of our earnings, cash flows and financial position; and the competitive pricing offered
by financing sources. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;15, 2008, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with NiSource and Bay State to acquire all of
the outstanding stock of Northern Utilities and Granite State. We have a commitment letter to enter into a senior unsecured bridge facility, which may be used to finance the transaction. We anticipate either financing the initial acquisition or
refinancing the bridge facility with the issuance of a combination of long-term debt and common equity securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We provide limited
guarantees on certain energy contracts entered into by our regulated subsidiary companies. Our policy is to limit these guarantees to the duration of the contracts, which can range from less than one month to three years. As of March&nbsp;31, 2008,

SIZE="2">The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In making those estimates and assumptions, management is sometimes
required to make difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments about the impact of matters that are inherently uncertain and for which different estimates that could reasonably have been used could have resulted in material differences in our
financial statements. If actual results were to differ significantly from those estimates, assumptions and judgments, our financial statements could be materially different than reported. The following is a summary of our most critical accounting
policies, which are defined as those policies where judgments or uncertainties could materially affect the application of those policies. For a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 to our consolidated financial
statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2008, which is incorporated herein by reference. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

receivables is performed and the adequacy of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is reviewed. The analysis takes into account an assumption about the cash recovery of delinquent receivables and also uses calculations related to customers who have
chosen payment plans to resolve their arrears. The analysis also calculates the amount of written-off receivables that are recoverable through regulatory rate reconciling mechanisms. We are authorized by regulators to recover the supply-related

SIZE="2">Our reported costs of providing retirement benefits are dependent upon numerous factors resulting from actual plan experience and assumptions of future experience. We have made critical estimates related to actuarial assumptions, including
assumptions of expected returns on plan assets, future compensation, health care cost trends, and appropriate discount rates. Our health care cost trend assumptions are developed based on historical cost data, the near-term outlook and an assessment
of likely long-term trends. Our RBO are affected by actual employee demographics, the level of contributions made to the plans, earnings on plan assets and health care cost trends. Changes made to the provisions of these plans may also affect
current and future costs. Our RBO may also be significantly affected by changes in key actuarial assumptions including anticipated rates of return on plan assets and the discount rates used in determining our RBO. </FONT></P> <P

could have a material impact on our financial statements. The discount rate assumptions used in determining retirement plan costs and retirement plan obligations are based on a market average of long-term bonds that receive one of the two highest
ratings given by a recognized rating agency. For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 and 2006, a change in the discount rate of 0.25% would have resulted in an increase or decrease of approximately $200,000 in the Net Periodic Benefit Cost for
the Pension Plan. For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 and 2006, a 1.0% increase in the assumption of health care cost trend rates would have resulted in increases in the Net Periodic Benefit Cost for the PBOP Plan of $690,000 and $683,000,
respectively. Similarly, a 1.0% decrease in the assumption of health care cost trend rates for those same time periods would have resulted in decreases in the Net Periodic Benefit Cost for the PBOP Plan of $539,000 and $530,000, respectively. See

short-term debt borrowings bear a variable rate of interest. As a result, changes in short-term interest rates will increase or decrease our interest expense in future periods. For example, if we had an average amount of short-term debt outstanding
of $25 million for the period of one year, a change in interest rates of 1% would result in a change in annual interest expense of approximately $250,000 (pre-tax). The average interest rates on our short-term borrowings for the three months ended

increased $0.5 million, or 1.9%, in 2007 compared to 2006. This increase reflects higher employee and retiree compensation and benefit expenses of $0.8 million, higher bad debt expenses of $0.1 million and an increase in all other operating expenses
of $0.2 million, net, offset by lower distribution utility operating expenses of $0.6 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Depreciation, Amortization, Taxes and Other
expenses increased $2.2 million in 2007 compared to 2006 reflecting higher depreciation on normal utility plant additions in 2007 and income taxes on higher levels of pre-tax earnings in 2007 compared to 2006. </FONT></P> <P

2006 were primarily driven by milder weather compared to 2005. Earnings in 2006 also reflect higher operating and maintenance expenses and interest costs. Partially offsetting these factors was an increase in electric distribution rates in 2006 for
our utility subsidiary in New Hampshire and increased gas delivery sales under a new contract with a large industrial customer in Massachusetts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

the decrease in SAS revenues, electric sales margin increased $2.1 million in 2006 compared to 2005. The higher sales margin in 2006 primarily reflects our approved base rate increase in New Hampshire of $2.7 million, partially offset by lower sales
margin of $0.6 million resulting from a decline in average energy usage per customer, primarily due to significantly milder weather and energy conservation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

season. The weather in our service territories in the winter of 2006 was approximately 12% warmer than in the same period for 2005, reflecting a record warm winter heating season. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

long-term borrowings increased due to the issuance of new fixed rate long-term debt. Our New Hampshire subsidiary, UES, issued and sold $15 million of Series O, 6.32% First Mortgage Bonds to institutional investors on September&nbsp;26, 2006. In
December 2005, our Massachusetts utility subsidiary, FG&amp;E, issued $15 million of unsecured long-term notes to institutional investors at an interest rate of 5.90%. The proceeds from these long-term financings were used principally to finance
utility plant additions that had been previously financed on an interim basis with short-term bank borrowings. Interest expense on short-term debt increased compared to 2005 primarily due to higher variable short-term interest rates. These increases
in interest expense were partially offset by an increase in interest income due to higher carrying charges on regulatory assets. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Liquidity, Commitments

is derived primarily from internally-generated funds, which consist of cash flows from operating activities, excluding payment of dividends. We initially supplement internally generated funds through bank borrowings, as needed, under unsecured
short-term bank lines. At December&nbsp;31, 2007, we had an aggregate of $30.0 million in unsecured revolving lines of credit with three banks. We anticipate that we will be able to secure renewal or replacement of some or all of our revolving lines
of credit, in accordance with projected requirements. We had short-term debt outstanding through bank borrowings of $18.8 million and $26.0 million at December&nbsp;31, 2007 and December&nbsp;31, 2006, respectively. In addition, we had approximately
$4.6 million in cash at December&nbsp;31, 2007. Periodically, we replace portions of our short-term debt with long-term financings more closely matched to the long-term nature of our utility assets. </FONT></P> <P

were utilized to repay outstanding short-term indebtedness of FG&amp;E and permanently finance utility plant additions. We expect to continue to be able to satisfy our external financing needs by utilizing additional short-term bank borrowings and
to periodically replace short-term debt with long-term financings. See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007, which is incorporated herein by

subject to reconciling recovery through periodic changes in rates, with carrying charges on deferred balances. From year to year, there are likely to be timing differences associated with the cash recovery of such costs, creating under- or

increase of $6.0 million year over year from Accrued Revenue, principally due to the recoveries of Accrued Revenues through reconciling cost recovery mechanisms. Sources of cash related to Deferred Restructuring Costs increased by $5.5 million in

Our retail distribution utilities have the franchise to deliver electricity and/or natural gas to all customers in our franchise areas, at rates established under traditional cost of service regulation. Under this regulatory structure, UES and
FG&amp;E recover the cost of providing distribution service to their customers based on a representative test year, in addition to earning a return on their capital investment in utility assets. As a result of a restructuring of the utility industry
in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, all of our customers have the opportunity to purchase their electric or natural gas supplies from third-party suppliers. Most small and medium-sized customers, however, continue to purchase such supplies through
UES and FG&amp;E as the providers of basic or default service energy supply. UES and FG&amp;E purchase electricity or natural gas for basic or default service from unaffiliated wholesale suppliers and recover the actual costs of these supplies,
without profit or markup, through reconciling, pass-through rate mechanisms that are periodically adjusted. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with the
implementation of retail choice, Unitil Power and FG&amp;E divested their long-term power supply contracts through the sale of the entitlements to the electricity sold under those contracts. UES and FG&amp;E recover in their rates all the costs
associated with the divestiture of their power supply portfolios and have secured regulatory approval from the NHPUC and MDPU, respectively, for the recovery of power supply-related stranded costs and other restructuring-related regulatory assets.
The remaining balance of these assets, to be recovered principally over the next three to five years, is $104.8 million as of December&nbsp;31, 2007 and is included in Regulatory Assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Our retail distribution
companies have a continuing obligation to submit filings in both states that demonstrate their compliance with regulatory mandates and provide for timely recovery of costs in accordance with their approved restructuring plans. See Note 5 to our

utility&#146;s distribution revenues on sales. Revenue decoupling is adopted with the intent of removing the disincentive a utility has to administer and promote customer efforts to reduce energy consumption and demand or to install distributed
generation to displace electricity delivered by the utility. The order included a straw proposal for a base revenue adjustment mechanism that severs the link between electric and gas companies&#146; revenues and sales, and instead, ties company
revenues to the number of customers served. Many interested parties filed comments on the elements of the straw proposal and on revenue decoupling in general. Several parties also provided comments in panel hearings organized by the MDPU. We filed
comments generally supporting revenue decoupling and recommended modifications to the MDPU&#146;s straw proposal. This matter remains pending. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

for rehearing, staying the June&nbsp;22, 2007 order pending hearing and reconsideration of the issues. An order following hearing was issued on January&nbsp;22, 2008 finding that it is appropriate to implement time-based metering standards and

decoupling, which would have the effect of removing obstacles to, and encouraging investment in, energy efficiency. Several parties attended the prehearing conference on June&nbsp;18, 2007 and subsequent technical sessions. On July&nbsp;30, 2007,
the gas and electric utilities made baseline presentations designed to assist the parties in understanding current regulatory methods and the utilities&#146; assessment of existing incentives and barriers to energy efficiency investment. On
November&nbsp;7, 2007, the Commission hosted expert presentations about the potential of various regulatory approaches to promote energy efficiency. The proceeding remains open. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

terms of a cost recovery agreement approved by the MDPU. Pursuant to this agreement, FG&amp;E is authorized to amortize and recover environmental response costs from gas customers over succeeding seven-year periods, without carrying costs. In
addition FG&amp;E has filed suit against several of its former insurance carriers seeking coverage for past and future environmental response costs at the site. Any recovery that FG&amp;E receives from insurance or third parties with respect to
environmental response costs, net of the unrecovered costs associated therewith, are split equally between FG&amp;E and its gas customers. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

for which different estimates that could reasonably have been used could have resulted in material differences in our financial statements. If actual results were to differ significantly from those estimates, assumptions and judgment, our financial
position could be materially affected and our results of operations could be materially different than reported. The following is a summary of our most critical accounting policies, which are defined as those policies where judgments or
uncertainties could materially affect the application of those policies. For a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to the financial statements and Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to our consolidated

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Regulatory Accounting</I></B>. Our principal business is the distribution of electricity and natural gas by the retail distribution companies: UES and FG&amp;E. Both UES and FG&amp;E are subject to regulation by
the FERC, FG&amp;E is regulated by the MDPU and UES is regulated by the NHPUC. Accordingly, we use the provisions of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;71, &#147;Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;71). In accordance
with SFAS No.&nbsp;71, we have recorded Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities which will be recovered or refunded in future electric and gas retail rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">SFAS No.&nbsp;71 specifies the economic effects that result from the cause and effect relationship of costs and revenues in the rate-regulated environment and how these effects are to be accounted for by a regulated
enterprise. Revenues intended to cover some costs may be recorded either before or after the costs are incurred. If regulation provides assurance that incurred costs will be recovered in the future, these costs would be recorded as deferred charges
or &#147;regulatory assets&#148; under SFAS No.&nbsp;71. If revenues are recorded for costs that are expected to be incurred in the future, these revenues would be recorded as deferred credits or &#147;regulatory liabilities&#148; under SFAS
No.&nbsp;71. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If we, or a portion of our assets or operations, were to cease meeting the criteria for application of these accounting rules,
accounting standards for businesses in general would become applicable and immediate recognition of any previously deferred costs, or a portion of deferred costs, would be required in the year in which the criteria are no longer met, if such
deferred costs were not recoverable in the portion of the business that continues to meet the criteria for application of SFAS No.&nbsp;71. If unable to continue to apply the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;71, we would be required to apply the
provisions of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;101, &#147;Regulated Enterprises &#150; Accounting for the Discontinuation of Application of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.&nbsp;71.&#148; In our opinion, our regulated operations will be
subject to SFAS No.&nbsp;71 for the foreseeable future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Utility Revenue Recognition</I></B>. Regulated utility revenues are based on
rates and charges approved by federal and state regulatory commissions. Revenues related to the sale of electric and gas service are recorded when service is rendered or energy is delivered to customers. However, the determination of energy sales to
individual customers is based on the reading of their meters, which occurs on a systematic basis throughout the month. At the end of each calendar month, amounts of energy delivered to customers since the date of the last meter reading are estimated
and the corresponding unbilled revenue is estimated. This unbilled revenue is estimated each month based on estimated customer usage by class and applicable customer rates. </FONT></P> <P

into account an assumption about the cash recovery of delinquent receivables and also uses calculations related to customers who have chosen payment plans to resolve their arrears. The analysis also calculates the amount of written-off receivables
that are recoverable through regulatory rate reconciling mechanisms. We are authorized by regulators to recover the supply-related portion of our written-off accounts from customers through periodically reconciling rate mechanisms. Evaluating the
adequacy of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts requires judgment about the assumptions used in the analysis. Also, we have experienced periods when state regulators have extended the periods during which certain standard credit and collection
activities of utility companies are suspended. In periods when account write-offs exceed estimated levels, we adjust the provision for doubtful accounts to maintain an adequate Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance. </FONT></P> <P

policies, we have made critical estimates related to actuarial assumptions, including assumptions of expected returns on plan assets, future compensation, health care cost trends, and appropriate discount rates. For each of these plans, the
development of the benefit obligation, fair value of plan assets, funded status and net periodic benefit cost is based on these significant assumptions. SFAS No.&nbsp;158 requires companies to record on their balance sheets as an asset or liability
the overfunded or underfunded status of their RBO based on the projected benefit obligation. We have recognized corresponding Regulatory Assets, to recognize the future collection of these obligations in electric and gas retail rates. See Notes 1

about Market Risk </I></B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Interest Rate Risk</I></B>. As discussed above, we meet our external financing needs by issuing short-term
and long-term debt. The majority of debt outstanding represents long-term notes bearing fixed rates of interest. Changes in market interest rates do not affect interest expense resulting from these outstanding long-term debt securities. However, we
periodically repay our short-term debt borrowings through the issuance of new long-term debt securities. Changes in market interest rates may affect the interest rate and corresponding interest expense on any new issuances of long-term debt
securities. In addition, short-term debt borrowings bear a variable rate of interest. As a result, changes in short-term interest rates will increase or decrease interest expense in future periods. For example, if we had an average amount of
short-term debt outstanding of $25 million for the period of one year, a change in interest rates of 1% would result in a change in annual interest expense of approximately $250,000. The average interest rate on short-term borrowings was 5.6%, 5.5%
and 3.8% during 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Market Risk</I></B>. Although our utility operating companies are subject to
commodity price risk as part of their traditional operations, the current regulatory framework within which these companies operate allows for full collection of electric power and natural gas supply costs in rates on a pass-through basis.
Consequently, there is limited commodity price risk after consideration of the related rate-making. Additionally, as discussed above and below in Regulatory Matters, we have divested our commodity-related contracts and therefore, further reduced our
exposure to commodity risk. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Please also see the section entitled <I>Risk Factors</I>. </FONT></P> <P

distribution of both electricity and natural gas in the greater Fitchburg area of north central Massachusetts. We have two distribution utility subsidiaries, UES, which operates in New Hampshire, and FG&amp;E, which operates in Massachusetts. UES,
through its predecessors Concord Electric Company and Exeter&nbsp;&amp; Hampton Electric Company, was incorporated in 1901. FG&amp;E was incorporated in 1852. UES and FG&amp;E are collectively referred to as our &#147;retail distribution

generating facilities or major transmission facilities and substantially all of our utility assets are dedicated to the local delivery of electricity and natural gas to our customers. Our total revenue was $262.9 million in 2007, which includes
revenue to recover the cost of purchased electricity and natural gas in rates on a fully reconciling basis. As a result of this reconciling rate structure, our earnings are not affected by changes in purchased electricity and natural gas costs.
Earnings applicable to holders of our common stock for 2007 were $8.6 million. Substantially all of our earnings are derived from the return on investment in our local distribution utility operations. </FONT></P> <P

arrangement. Unitil Service provides, at cost, a variety of administrative and professional services, including regulatory, financial, accounting, human resources, engineering, operations, technology and management services to its affiliated Unitil
companies. Unitil Resources is our wholly owned non-utility subsidiary that provides energy brokering, consulting and management related services. The Usource entities are wholly owned subsidiaries of Unitil Resources. Usource provides energy

Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. If the sale and issuance of long-term indebtedness is delayed or is not completed in whole or in
part for any reason, then we will use a bridge credit facility or other interim debt financing to finance the Proposed Acquisitions. We have a commitment for a bridge credit facility that provides for a loan of up to eleven months during which
period we would need to arrange alternative financing. We expect to commence the offering of our common stock, as described in this prospectus, as soon as practicable after (i)&nbsp;we obtain certain regulatory approvals relating to the Proposed
Acquisitions and (ii)&nbsp;the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions relating to the Proposed Acquisitions. The sale and issuance of long-term indebtedness is subject to certain regulatory requirements and approvals and will be subject to

SIZE="2">Our Board of Directors believes that the Proposed Acquisitions and related transactions will result in the following significant benefits to us: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Attractive Local Growth Opportunity Consistent with our Strategy</I></B>. Northern Utilities and Granite State provide us with an attractive opportunity to grow our operations within coastal northern New
England. Northern Utilities will bring approximately 52,000 additional natural gas retail distribution customers, which will increase our domestic retail customer base to approximately 167,000 customers in the coastal New England region. Given the
lower penetration of gas distribution customers among the population in Northern Utilities&#146; service territory, we believe that there are significant opportunities for Northern Utilities to expand its operations, particularly in light of our
customer-driven expertise in serving rural and small metropolitan areas such as Northern Utilities&#146; service territory. Additionally, Northern Utilities will provide further diversification to our operations with respect to geography (into
Maine) and utility business mix (between our gas and electric divisions). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Reduced Operating Expenses and Cash Flow Savings</I></B>.
We project that the Proposed Acquisitions will produce annual system-wide synergy savings of approximately $5.6 million, of which approximately $2.3 million will be directly realized by Northern Utilities and Granite State. We expect to begin
realizing these synergies within the first full year after integration. These projected savings are primarily due to operating efficiencies obtained from economies of scale, efficient use of our personnel, infrastructure and information systems,
achievement of efficiencies associated with the provision of shared utility services and adoption of best practices associated with these shared utility services. Our expected achievement of these system-wide synergies should allow Northern
Utilities and our other retail distribution utilities to improve their respective earnings and to stabilize the rates charged to their respective customers. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Opportunity for Improved Regulated Utility Operating Earnings through the Execution of Our Regulatory Plan</I></B>. We believe there is an opportunity to stabilize and improve the operating earnings of Northern
Utilities and Granite State by executing a consistent and well-structured regulatory plan that provides Northern Utilities and Granite State with an opportunity to earn a reasonable rate of return. Northern Utilities has not sought base rate relief
since 1983 in Maine or since 2002 in New Hampshire. Our regulatory plan will seek to maximize the benefits of the expected synergies discussed above for Northern Utilities and Granite State and provide Northern Utilities and Granite State with an
opportunity to earn a reasonable rate of return on their utility rate base. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Increased Market Capitalization and Liquidity</I></B>. We
expect that the Proposed Acquisitions and this offering will increase our market capitalization by approximately 50% and increase our shareholders&#146; liquidity. As a result, we and our shareholders should benefit from the long-term financial
stability of a larger, more liquid company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our Board of Directors also believes that the Proposed Acquisitions and related transactions
will result in the following significant benefits to our other stakeholders: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Increased Commitment to Local Communities</I></B>. We
expect the Proposed Acquisitions to demonstrate our increased commitment to local communities in New Hampshire and Maine through the creation of employment opportunities and the expansion of our local presence. We anticipate retaining all of
Northern Utilities&#146; 78 current employees and estimate that we will add approximately 50 new positions, while still achieving the expected synergies discussed above, following the Proposed Acquisitions. The new positions will be primarily in the
areas of gas operations and customer service, which are necessary to provide shared utility services previously provided by NiSource and included in the Northern Utilities and Granite State operating expenses. </FONT></P> <P

of our electric service territory in southeastern New Hampshire and portions of Northern Utilities&#146; natural gas service territory will increase the convenience for many of Northern Utilities&#146; customers who will be doing business with a
single gas and electric distribution utility following the Proposed Acquisitions. Additionally, we estimate that we will add several new positions to our local customer service department following the Proposed Acquisitions. </FONT></P> <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities is a local natural gas distribution utility serving customers in Maine and New Hampshire. Northern Utilities provides natural gas distribution services to approximately 52,000 customers in 44 New
Hampshire and southern Maine communities, stretching from Plaistow, New Hampshire, in the south to Lewiston-Auburn, Maine, in the north. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Northern Utilities was incorporated under the laws of New Hampshire in 1979. Its roots extend back to Portland Gas Light Company in 1849, making it one of the oldest natural gas utilities in New England. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Bay State, which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of NiSource. It has 78 full-time employees and its customers include residences, businesses and organizations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities had an investment in Net Utility Plant of $163.5 million at December&nbsp;31, 2007, and net revenues of $44.2 million for 2007. Northern Utilities derives its revenues and earnings from its
regulated utility operations. Northern Utilities recovers the cost of natural gas in rates on a fully reconciling basis and, therefore, Northern Utilities&#146; earnings are not affected by changes in purchased gas costs. Northern Utilities receives
centralized administrative, management, and support services from NiSource and its affiliates, the cost of which amounted to $8.6 million in 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

non-compliance with state regulatory matters incurred in the comparable 2007 period offset by increased depreciation expense in 2008 related to capital investments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In October 2007, the MPUC initiated a formal investigation into three Notices of Probable Violation (NOPVs) alleging that Northern Utilities had violated
various provisions of the federal pipeline safety regulations, as adopted by the MPUC. Specifically, the NOPVs alleged that (1)&nbsp;Northern Utilities had failed to update its Operation and Maintenance Plan (Operation and Maintenance Plan) within
the time periods required by the regulations; (2)&nbsp;Northern Utilities had allowed persons to perform certain operation and maintenance tasks without being properly qualified to do so under its Operator Qualification Plan (Operator Qualification
Plan); (3)&nbsp;Northern Utilities lacked the necessary documentation concerning the maximum allowable operating pressures of certain distribution piping systems; (4)&nbsp;Northern Utilities had allowed one of its systems to operate above the
maximum allowable operating pressure following an upstream regulator failure; and (5)&nbsp;Northern Utilities had failed to properly design one of its regulator stations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Both Northern Utilities and the MPUC Staff have filed written testimony, and Northern Utilities has responded to extensive discovery requests. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In February and March 2008, the MPUC issued NOPVs with accompanying investigations related to documentation required for Northern Utilities&#146;
triennial inspection (Docket No.&nbsp;2008-118) and Northern Utilities&#146; qualification of certain affiliate employees that did work in the past on Northern Utilities&#146; behalf (Docket No.&nbsp;2008-122). </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In April 2008, the MPUC initiated an investigation into an incident from which an NOPV was issued although the cause was not determined conclusively to be
natural gas (Docket No.&nbsp;2008-95, claiming Northern Utilities failed to complete its investigation of the failure), and into an over pressurization following an upstream regulator failure (Docket No.&nbsp;2008-96, alleging the same). </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In June 2008, the MPUC initiated a formal investigation into two NOPVs alleging that Northern Utilities had violated various provisions of the federal
pipeline safety regulations with respect to two separate gas leaks that occurred at two separate residences each in October of 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
formal evidentiary hearings have been postponed, pending settlement discussions with the MPUC&#146;s Prosecutorial Staff (Prosecutorial Staff), which are currently underway. The MPUC&#146;s Prosecutorial Staff has indicated that it believes a fine
of approximately $5.9 million, to be advanced at hearing, is appropriate. Northern Utilities vigorously disputes the proposal as flatly inconsistent with reasoned enforcement actions and the criteria governing the discretionary assessment of civil
penalties. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of March&nbsp;31, 2008, Northern Utilities has recorded an appropriate liability for this matter, and, based upon its

the 12-month period ended March&nbsp;31, 2007. The NHPUC recognized that Northern Utilities had previously opened an internal investigation to determine the actual UAFG for that period, the cause of any misreporting and a solution. The NHPUC ordered
Northern Utilities to file a detailed report by December&nbsp;31, 2007 regarding the results of Northern Utilities&#146; internal investigation into UAFG as reported in its 2006-2007 winter cost of gas reconciliation filing. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In early December 2007, Northern Utilities identified what appears to be the single largest contributing cause of its New Hampshire Division&#146;s
unusually high reported UAFG levels. The apparent cause appeared to be incorrect metering by Spectra Energy Corp. (Spectra) at the Maritimes&nbsp;&amp; Northeast (M&amp;NE) / Portland Natural Gas Transmission System&#146;s (PNGTS) Newington Gate
Station in Newington, New Hampshire (Newington Gate Station) caused by an erroneous meter module change on May&nbsp;25, 2005. Because of the recent discovery of this cause, Northern Utilities sought and obtained from the NHPUC an extension until
February&nbsp;15, 2008 to file the requested report showing accurate volumetric adjustments to correct its UAFG levels and associated cost impacts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;15, 2008, Northern Utilities filed its report with the NHPUC. Northern Utilities reported that it is working with Granite State and Spectra to determine the exact volume of gas that was over-recorded as a result of Spectra
erroneously updating its Newington Gate Station meter module in May 2005. As a result of these efforts, Northern Utilities received confirmation from Spectra on January&nbsp;28, 2008, that Granite State was erroneously billed for an additional
758,709 Dth of natural gas between May 2005 and December 2007. As the primary transportation customer of Granite State at the Newington Gate Station, and due to the service arrangements under which Northern Utilities receives service from Granite
State, the total amount of the error was passed through to Northern Utilities. Northern Utilities calculates that it was overcharged by approximately $5.7 million for gas purchases directly related to this meter error based on gas prices in effect
at the time of the error. This overcharge in turn was passed on to Northern Utilities&#146; customers through the normal operation of the gas cost recovery mechanism. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although Northern Utilities anticipates it will have a refund liability for the overcharges, the timing and extent is not clear. The Commission has not yet suggested that Northern Utilities would be liable for refunds
in the absence of its receipt of a recovery from a third party. Under the traditional application of the gas cost recovery rules, Northern Utilities would flow through any refund received from a third party. As of June 2008, Northern Utilities has
recorded approximately $10.3 million reflecting the anticipated liability of the future refund amount based on current market prices with an offsetting receivable by Granite State. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities has been informed by Spectra that resolution of the issue and any cash-out or refund that needs to be made to Granite State and/or
Northern Utilities, requires the involvement of PNGTS. Although PNGTS has agreed to repay the lost gas to Granite State over an 18-month period, final documents memorializing the payback have not been completed. Northern Utilities has agreed to
inform the NHPUC at 120-day intervals until an acceptable resolution is reached. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Liquidity and Capital Resources </I></B></FONT></P> <P

Northern Utilities&#146; operations are subject to seasonal fluctuations in cash flow. During the heating season, which is primarily from November through March, cash receipts from gas sales and transportation services typically exceed cash

requirements related to accounting for income taxes. Specifically, this interpretation requires that a tax position meet a &#147;more-likely-than-not recognition threshold&#148; for the benefit of an uncertain tax position to be recognized in the
financial statements and requires that benefit to be measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The determination of whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not
recognition threshold is based on whether it is probable of being sustained on audit by the appropriate taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

representational faithfulness, and comparability of information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports regarding business combinations and its effects, including recognition of assets and liabilities, the measurement of goodwill
and required disclosures. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December&nbsp;15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. Northern Utilities is currently reviewing the
provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;141R to determine the impact on future business combinations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>SFAS No.&nbsp;161&nbsp;&#150;&nbsp;Disclosures

increase was primarily due to an increase in net revenues of approximately $2.5 million resulting from favorable weather in the 2007 period, increased commercial usage of $1.3 million due primarily to customer conversions to gas resulting from high

Operating expenses increased $3.8 million, or 11.3%, for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 compared to the same period of 2006. This increase was primarily due to $1.2 million in penalties for non-compliance with state regulatory matters, a $1.1
million increase in regulatory trackers, which are offset in net revenues, increased outside service expense of $0.7 million primarily for outside contractors reviewing construction records and performing inspections, and increased depreciation
expense of $0.5 million related to capital investments. Northern Utilities paid management fees of $8.6 million and $8.1 million in 2007 and 2006, respectively, to NiSource and its affiliates for centralized administrative, management, and support
services. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Other Income (Deductions)</I>. Interest expense increased $0.3 million, or 12%, for the year due to an increase in interest on

deferred gas cost and inventory. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Income Tax Expense</I>. Income taxes increased $0.9 million in 2007 compared to 2006 primarily due to
higher pre-tax income and a higher effective tax rate. The 2007 effective income tax rate of 44% was 6.6% higher than the 2006 effective tax rate primarily due to the tax impact of nondeductible penalties recorded in 2007 versus 2006. </FONT></P> <P

Income taxes decreased $1.4 million in 2006 compared to 2005 primarily due to lower pre-tax income in 2006. The 2006 effective income tax rate of 37.5% was 4.4% lower than the 2005 effective tax rate primarily due to the regulatory flow-through of
state income tax benefits of $42,000 in 2006 versus the regulatory flow-through of state income tax expense of $81,000 in 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

Specifically, the NOPVs alleged that (1)&nbsp;Northern Utilities had failed to update its Operation and Maintenance Plan within the time periods required by the regulations; (2)&nbsp;Northern Utilities had allowed persons to perform certain
operation and maintenance tasks without being properly qualified to do so under its Operator Qualification Plan; (3)&nbsp;Northern Utilities lacked the necessary documentation concerning the maximum allowable operating pressures of certain

was not determined conclusively to be natural gas (Docket No.&nbsp;2008-95, claiming Northern Utilities failed to complete its investigation of the failure), and into an over pressurization following an upstream regulator failure (Docket

Prosecutorial Staff has indicated that it believes a fine of approximately $5.9 million, to be advanced at hearing, is appropriate. Northern Utilities vigorously disputes the proposal as flatly inconsistent with reasoned enforcement actions and the
criteria governing the discretionary assessment of civil penalties. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of December&nbsp;31, 2007, Northern Utilities has recorded an
appropriate liability for this matter, and, based upon its analysis of the issues, any penalties imposed in this proceeding should approximate the liability. At this time, however, Northern Utilities cannot predict whether it will be able to reach a
settlement with the Prosecutorial Staff, or the amounts of any monetary penalties that may ultimately be imposed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>New Hampshire

the NHPUC issued Order DG 07-102 concerning the 2007/2008 winter cost of gas proceeding for Northern Utilities&#146; New Hampshire division. In that order, the NHPUC noted that UAFG in the 2007-2008 winter cost of gas forecast is approximately one
percent of firm sales, compared to a reported 7.59% UAFG for the 12-month period ended March&nbsp;31, 2007. The NHPUC recognized that Northern Utilities had previously opened an internal investigation to determine the actual UAFG for that </FONT>

results of Northern Utilities&#146; internal investigation into UAFG as reported in its 2006-2007 winter cost of gas reconciliation filing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">In early December 2007, Northern Utilities identified what appears to be the single largest contributing cause of its New Hampshire Division&#146;s unusually high reported UAFG levels. The apparent cause appeared to be incorrect metering by
Spectra at the M&amp;NE / PNGTS Newington Gate Station caused by an erroneous meter module change on May&nbsp;25, 2005. Because of the recent discovery of this cause, Northern Utilities sought and obtained from the NHPUC an extension until
February&nbsp;15, 2008 to file the requested report showing accurate volumetric adjustments to correct its UAFG levels and associated cost impacts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;15, 2008, Northern Utilities filed its report with the NHPUC. Northern Utilities reported that it is working with Granite State and Spectra to determine the exact volume of gas that was over-recorded as a result of Spectra
erroneously updating its Newington Gate Station meter module in May 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although Northern Utilities anticipates it will have a refund
liability for the overcharges, the timing and extent is not clear. The Commission has not yet suggested that Northern Utilities would be liable for refunds in the absence of its receipt of a recovery from a third party. Under the traditional
application of the gas cost recovery rules, Northern Utilities would flow through any refund received from a third party. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Liquidity and Capital

Utilities&#146; operating requirements. Northern Utilities&#146; operations are subject to seasonal fluctuations in cash flow. During the heating season, which is primarily from November through March, cash receipts from gas sales and transportation
services typically exceed cash requirements, while in the summer months short-term financing is used to purchase gas to place in storage for heating season deliveries, perform maintenance and make capital improvements. </FONT></P> <P

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The accounting policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an understanding of Northern Utilities&#146; financial statements
as their application places the most significant demands on management&#146;s judgment. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved with this type of judgment, actual results could differ significantly from estimates and may have a material adverse
impact on Northern Utilities&#146; results of operations, equity or cash flows. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Accounting for Regulation</I>. Northern Utilities
follows the accounting and reporting requirements of SFAS No.&nbsp;71. SFAS No.&nbsp;71 provides that rate-regulated companies account for and report assets and liabilities consistent with the economic effect of the way in which regulators establish
rates, if the rates established are designed to recover the costs of providing the regulated service and it is probable that such rates can be charged and collected. Certain expenses and credits subject to utility regulation or rate determination
normally reflected in income are deferred on the balance sheet and are recognized in income as the related amounts are included in service rates and recovered from or refunded to customers. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities has designed its rates to recover the costs of providing its regulated service and determined it is probable that such rates can be
charged and collected. In the event that regulation significantly changes the opportunity for Northern Utilities to recover its costs in the future, Northern Utilities may no longer meet the criteria for the application of SFAS No.&nbsp;71. In such
event, a write-down of all or a portion of Northern Utilities&#146; existing regulatory assets and liabilities could result. If unable to continue to apply the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;71, Northern Utilities would be required to apply the
provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;101, &#147;Regulated Enterprises&nbsp;&#151;&nbsp;Accounting for the Discontinuation of Application of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;71.&#148; In management&#146;s opinion, Northern Utilities will be subject to SFAS No.&nbsp;71
for the foreseeable future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Accounting for Risk Management Activities</I>. SFAS No.&nbsp;133 establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. SFAS No.&nbsp;133 requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value, unless such contracts are designated by Northern Utilities as normal under the provisions of the standard. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under SFAS No.&nbsp;133 the accounting for the changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and resulting
designation. Unrealized and realized gains and losses are recognized each period as components of other comprehensive income, earnings, or regulatory assets and liabilities depending on the nature of such derivatives. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities has a regulatory approved hedging program designed to fix a portion of its gas supply costs for the coming year of service. In order to
fix these costs, Northern Utilities purchases New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) futures that correspond to the associated delivery month. Any gains or losses on the fair value of these derivatives are passed through to the ratepayer directly
through a regulatory commission approved recovery mechanism. As a result of the ratemaking process, Northern Utilities records gains and losses as regulatory liabilities or assets and recognizes such gains or losses in cost of sales when recovered
in revenues. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Intangible Assets</I>. At December&nbsp;31, 2007, Northern Utilities had $72.4 million of intangible assets consisting of
franchise rights that were identified as part of the purchase price allocation associated with the acquisition by NiSource. The intangible asset balance at December&nbsp;31, 2006 was $74.7 million. The gross intangible asset of $92.7 million is
being amortized over a forty-year period commencing February 1999, the date of the acquisition by NiSource. The reserve balance was $20.3 million and $18.0 million at December&nbsp;31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. </FONT></P> <P

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities assesses the carrying amount and potential earnings of this intangible asset whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value could be impaired under SFAS No.&nbsp;144. When an asset&#146;s carrying value exceeds the undiscounted estimated future cash flows associated with the asset, the asset is
considered to be impaired to the extent that the asset&#146;s fair value is less than its carrying value. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Pensions and Postretirement
Benefits</I>. Northern Utilities has defined benefit plans for both pensions and other postretirement benefits. The plans are accounted for under FASB Statement No.&nbsp;87, &#147;Employers&#146; Accounting for Pensions&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;87),
FASB Statement No.&nbsp;88, &#147;Employers&#146; Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;88), and FASB Statement No.&nbsp;106, &#147;Employers&#146; Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits other than Pensions&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;106), as amended by SFAS No.&nbsp;158. The calculation of the net obligations and annual expense related to the plans requires a significant degree of judgment regarding the
discount rates to be used in bringing the liabilities to present value, long-term returns on plan assets and employee longevity, among other assumptions. Due to the size of the plans and the long-term nature of the associated liabilities, changes in

present laws and regulations. Management&#146;s assessment of the contingent liability could change as a result of future events or as more information becomes available. Actual amounts could differ from estimates and can have a material impact on

associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement requirements related to accounting for income taxes. Specifically, this interpretation requires that a tax position meet a &#147;more-likely-than-not recognition threshold&#148; for
the benefit of an uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements and requires that benefit to be measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The
determination of whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is based on whether it is probable of being sustained on audit by the appropriate taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position.
Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006. </FONT></P> <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Risk is an inherent part of Northern Utilities&#146; business and the extent to which management properly and effectively identifies, assesses, monitors and manages each of the various types of risk involved in the
business can significantly impact profitability. Northern Utilities seeks to identify, assess, monitor and manage, in accordance with defined policies and procedures, commodity price risk, credit risk, and interest rate risk. In addition, Northern
Utilities is exposed to market risk associated with the supply of, and demand for, natural gas and the impact of changes in natural gas prices, and can also be negatively affected by sustained downturns or sluggishness in the regional economy.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities is exposed to commodity price risk as a result of its operations involving natural gas. Northern Utilities utilizes a
regulatory approved hedging program designed to fix a portion of its gas supply costs for the coming year of service. In order to fix these costs, Northern Utilities purchases NYMEX futures that correspond to the associated delivery month. Any gains
or losses on the fair value of these derivatives are passed through to the ratepayer directly through a regulatory commission approved recovery mechanism. As a result of the ratemaking process, Northern Utilities records gains and losses as
regulatory liabilities or assets and recognizes such gains or losses in cost of sales when recovered in revenues. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Credit risk represents
the loss that Northern Utilities would incur if a counterparty fails to perform under its contractual obligations. Exposure to credit risk is measured by summing a counterparty&#146;s current obligations to Northern Utilities and the
marked-to-market value of any forward positions with that entity. Credit exposure is generally mitigated by obtaining stand-by letters of credit, deposits, guarantees, or other collateral items. In determining exposure, Northern Utilities considers
collateral that it holds to reduce individual counterparty credit exposure. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To the extent Northern Utilities has short-term borrowings,

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On October&nbsp;31, 2007, the NHPUC issued Order DG 07-102 concerning the 2007/2008 winter cost of gas proceeding for Northern Utilities&#146; New Hampshire division. In that order, the NHPUC noted that UAFG in the
2007-2008 winter cost of gas forecast is approximately 1% of firm sales, compared to a reported 7.59% UAFG for the 12-month period ending April 2007. The NHPUC recognized that Northern Utilities had previously opened an internal investigation to
determine the actual UAFG for that period, the cause of any misreporting, and a solution. The NHPUC ordered Northern Utilities to file a detailed report by December&nbsp;31, 2007 regarding the results of its investigation into UAFG as reported in
its 2006-2007 winter cost of gas reconciliation filing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In early December 2007, Northern Utilities identified what appears to be the single

change on May&nbsp;25, 2005. Because of the recent discovery of this cause, Northern Utilities sought from the NHPUC and obtained an extension until February&nbsp;15, 2008 to file the requested report showing accurate volumetric adjustments to
correct Northern Utilities&#146; UAFG levels and associated cost impacts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;15, 2008, Northern Utilities filed its report with the NHPUC. Northern Utilities
reported that it was working with Granite State and Spectra to determine the exact volume of gas that was over-recorded as a result of Spectra erroneously updating its Newington Gate Station meter module in May 2005. As a result of these efforts,
Northern Utilities received confirmation from Spectra on January&nbsp;28, 2008, that Granite State was erroneously billed for an additional 758,709 Dth of natural gas between May 2005 and December 2007. As the primary transportation customer of
Granite State at the Newington Gate Station, and due to the service arrangements under which Northern Utilities receives service from Granite State, the total amount of the error was passed through to Northern Utilities. Northern Utilities
calculates that it was overcharged by approximately $5.7 million for gas purchases directly related to this meter error based on gas prices in effect at the time of the error. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of June 2008, Granite State has recorded approximately $10.3 million reflecting the anticipated liability of the future refund amount to Northern
Utilities based on current market prices. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities has been informed by Spectra that resolution of the issue and any cash-out or
refund that needs to be made to Granite State and/or Northern Utilities requires the involvement of PNGTS. PNGTS has agreed to repay the lost gas to Granite State over an 18-month period, but final documents memorializing the payback have not been
completed. Northern Utilities has agreed to inform the NHPUC at 120-day intervals until an acceptable resolution is reached. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Liquidity and Capital

overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, measured as the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the benefit obligation. Based on the measurement of the various defined benefit pension and other
postretirement plans&#146; assets and benefit obligations at September&nbsp;30, 2006, the pretax impact of adopting SFAS No.&nbsp;158 increased &#147;Prepayments&#148; by $2,437, increased &#147;Regulatory Assets&#148; by $628,963, and decreased
&#147;Other Current Liabilities&#148; by $19,057. &#147;Pension and Postretirement Benefits&#148; were increased by $650,457. With the adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;158 Granite State determined that the future recovery of pension and other
postretirement plans costs is probable in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No.&nbsp;71. Granite State recorded regulatory assets and liabilities that would otherwise have been recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income. </FONT></P>

2007-2008 winter cost of gas forecast is approximately 1% of firm sales, compared to a reported 7.59% UAFG for the 12-month period ending April 2007. The NHPUC recognized that Northern Utilities had previously opened an internal investigation to
determine the actual UAFG for that period, the cause of any misreporting, and a solution. The NHPUC ordered Northern Utilities to file a detailed report by December&nbsp;31, 2007 regarding the results of its investigation into UAFG as reported in
its 2006-2007 winter cost of gas reconciliation filing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In early December 2007, Northern Utilities identified what appears to be the single
largest contributing cause of its New Hampshire Division&#146;s unusually high reported UAFG levels. The apparent cause appeared to be incorrect metering by Spectra at the M&amp;NE / PNGTS Newington Gate Station caused by an erroneous meter module
change on May&nbsp;25, 2005. Because of the recent discovery of this cause, Northern Utilities sought from the NHPUC and obtained an extension until February&nbsp;15, 2008 to file the requested report showing accurate volumetric adjustments to
correct Northern Utilities&#146; UAFG levels and associated cost impacts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;15, 2008, Northern Utilities filed its report
with the NHPUC. Northern Utilities reported that it was working with Granite State and Spectra to determine the exact volume of gas that was over-recorded as a result of Spectra erroneously updating its Newington Gate Station meter module in May
2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Significant FERC Developments </I></B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

No.&nbsp;71. SFAS No.&nbsp;71 provides that rate-regulated companies account for and report assets and liabilities consistent with the economic effect of the way in which regulators establish rates, if the rates established are designed to recover
the costs of providing the regulated service and it is probable that such rates can be charged and collected. Certain expenses and credits subject to utility regulation or rate determination normally reflected in income are deferred on the balance
sheet and are recognized in income as the related amounts are included in service rates and recovered from or refunded to customers. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Granite State has designed its rates to recover the costs of providing regulated service and determined it is probable that such rates can be charged and collected. In the event that regulation significantly changes the opportunity for
Granite State to recover its costs in the future, Granite State may no longer meet the criteria for the application of SFAS No.&nbsp;71. In such event, a write-down of all or a portion of Granite State&#146;s existing regulatory assets and
liabilities could result. If unable to continue to apply the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;71, Granite State would be required to apply the provisions of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;101, &#147;Regulated Enterprises-Accounting for the Discontinuation of
Application of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;71&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;101). In management&#146;s opinion, Granite State will be subject to SFAS No.&nbsp;71 for the foreseeable future. </FONT></P> <P

of the individual units of Bay State. Granite State was part of the Bay State at the time of this purchase. The amount is being amortized to operating expense over a forty-year period, and is not currently a component of Granite State&#146;s rates.
Granite State&#146;s balance sheet dated as of December&nbsp;31, 2007 and 2006 contains intangible assets discussed above which are not subject to recovery under SFAS No.&nbsp;71. As a result, Granite State assesses the carrying amount and potential
earnings of these assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value could be impaired as per FASB Statement No.&nbsp;144, &#147;Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets&#148; (SFAS
No.&nbsp;144). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Pensions and Postretirement Benefits</I>. Granite State has defined benefit plans for both pensions and other
postretirement benefits. The plans are accounted for under SFAS No.&nbsp;87, SFAS No.&nbsp;88 and SFAS No.&nbsp;106, as amended by SFAS No.&nbsp;158. The calculation of the net obligations and annual expense related to the plans requires a
significant degree of judgment regarding the discount rates to be used in bringing the liabilities to present value, long-term returns on plan assets and employee longevity, among other assumptions. Due to the size of the plans and the long-term
nature of the associated liabilities, changes in the assumptions used in the actuarial estimates could have material impacts on the measurement of the net obligations and annual expense recognition. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Contingencies</I>. A contingent liability is recognized when it is probable that an environmental, tax, legal or other liability has been incurred and
the amount of loss can reasonably be estimated. Accounting for contingencies requires significant management judgment regarding the estimated probabilities and ranges of exposure to a potential liability. Estimates of the loss and associated
probability are made based on the current facts available, including present laws and regulations. Management&#146;s assessment of the contingent liability could change as a result of future events or as more information becomes available. Actual
amounts could differ from estimates and can have a material impact on Granite State&#146;s results of operations and financial position. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Recently

fair value. Upon adoption, a cumulative adjustment will be made to beginning retained earnings for the initial fair value option remeasurement. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses for fair value option items will be reported in earnings. SFAS
No.&nbsp;159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007 and should not be applied retrospectively, except as permitted for certain conditions for early adoption. Granite State chose not to elect to measure any applicable

48&nbsp;&#150;&nbsp;Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes</I>. In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement requirements related to accounting for
income taxes. Specifically, this interpretation requires that a tax position meet a &#147;more-likely-than-not recognition threshold&#148; for the benefit of an uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements and requires that
benefit to be measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The determination of whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is based on whether
it is probable of being sustained on audit by the appropriate taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On January&nbsp;1,

defined benefit postretirement plans by requiring employers to recognize in the statement of financial position the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, among other changes. In the fourth quarter of 2006,
Granite State adopted the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;158 requiring employers to recognize in the statement of financial position the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, measured as the difference between the
fair value of the plan assets and the benefit obligation. Based on the measurement of the various defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans&#146; assets and benefit obligations at September&nbsp;30, 2006, the pretax impact of adopting
SFAS No.&nbsp;158 increased &#147;Prepayments&#148; by $2,437, increased &#147;Regulatory Assets&#148; by $628,963, and decreased &#147;Other Current Liabilities&#148; by $19,057. &#147;Pension and Postretirement Benefits&#148; were increased by
$650,457. With the adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;158 Granite State determined that the future recovery of pension and other postretirement plans costs is probable in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No.&nbsp;71. Granite State recorded regulatory

assesses, monitors and manages each of the various types of risk involved in the business can significantly impact profitability. Granite State seeks to identify, assess, monitor and manage, in accordance with defined policies and procedures, credit
risk and interest rate risk. In addition, Granite State is exposed to market risk associated with the supply of, and demand for, natural gas and the impact of changes in natural gas prices, and can also be negatively affected by sustained downturns
or sluggishness in the regional economy. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Credit risk represents the loss that Granite State would incur if a counterparty fails to perform
under its contractual obligations. Exposure to credit risk is measured by summing a counterparty&#146;s current obligations to us and the marked-to-market value of any forward positions with that entity. Credit exposure is generally mitigated by
obtaining stand-by letters of credit, deposits, guarantees, or other collateral items. In determining exposure, Granite State considers collateral that Granite State holds to reduce individual counterparty credit exposure. As Granite State&#146;s
primary customer is Northern Utilities, an affiliate, credit risk is deemed to be minimal. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To the extent Granite State has short-term

difficult or discouraging a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or other change in control of us (collectively referred to as change in control transactions). However, the availability of additional authorized shares of common stock could render

shares through the over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more shares than could be covered by the over-allotment option, a naked short position, the position can only be closed out by buying shares in the open market. A naked short
position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there could be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

March&nbsp;31, 2008 (with respect to the balance sheet information using currently available fair value information) or as of January&nbsp;1, 2007 (with respect to statements of earnings). The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements show
the impact of the acquisition of Northern Utilities and Granite State by Unitil on the companies&#146; respective historical financial position and results of operations under the purchase method of accounting. Under this method of accounting, the
assets and liabilities of Northern Utilities and Granite State will be recorded, as of the completion of the acquisition, at their fair values and added to those of Unitil. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheets as of December&nbsp;31, 2007
and March&nbsp;31, 2008 assumes the acquisition was completed on those dates. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of earnings give effect to the acquisition as if it had been completed on January&nbsp;1, 2007. </FONT></P> <P

predecessor owner&#146;s equity and debt amounts with the new equity and debt capitalization proposed by Unitil. The debt and equity adjustments included in the pro forma financial statements reflect the amount necessary to finance the acquisition.
The actual amounts of the debt and equity offering sizes may vary. The unaudited pro forma combined selected financial data excludes adjustments to recognize the estimated operating expense savings of $5.6 million annually due to the achievement of
efficiencies associated with the provision of shared utility services and the adoption of best practices associated with these shared utility services and also excludes a reduction in operating expenses of $1.2 million related to compliance
violation penalties incurred by Northern Utilities in 2007. The unaudited pro forma combined selected financial data also excludes adjustments to recognize the enhancements to revenue of Northern Utilities and Granite State that may occur from the
execution of Unitil&#146;s regulatory plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Note 2 Method of Accounting for the Acquisition </B></FONT></P> <P

underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, among other changes. In the fourth quarter of 2006, Northern Utilities adopted the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;158 requiring employers to recognize in the statement of financial position
the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, measured as the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the benefit obligation. Based on the measurement of the various defined benefit pension and other

million, and decreased &#147;Other Current Liabilities&#148; by $0.3 million. &#147;Pensions and Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions&#148; were increased by $8.4 million. With the adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;158 Northern Utilities determined

No.&nbsp;39</I></B>. In April 2007, the FASB posted FSP FIN 39-1 to amend paragraph 3 of FIN 39 to replace the terms conditional contracts and exchange contracts with the term derivative instruments as defined in SFAS No.&nbsp;133. This FSP also
amends paragraph 10 of FIN 39 to permit a reporting entity to offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral or the obligation to return cash collateral against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments
executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement. This FSP became effective for Northern Utilities as of January&nbsp;1, 2008. Northern Utilities has not elected to net fair value amounts for its derivative instruments or the
fair value amounts recognized for its right to receive cash collateral or obligation to pay cash collateral arising from those derivative instruments recognized at fair value, which are executed with the same counterparty under a master netting
arrangement. This is consistent with Northern Utilities current accounting policy prior to the adoption of this amended standard. Northern Utilities discloses amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral within &#147;Restricted

48&nbsp;&#151;&nbsp;Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes</I></B>. In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement requirements related to accounting
for income taxes. Specifically, this interpretation requires that a tax position meet a &#147;more-likely-than-not recognition threshold&#148; for the benefit of an uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements and requires
that benefit to be measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The determination of whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is based on
whether it is probable of being sustained on audit by the appropriate taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN&nbsp;48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

No.&nbsp;143, &#147;Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;143). This accounting standard and the related interpretation require entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the
period in which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the cost, thereby increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted and the capitalized cost is
depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. The Company defers the difference between the amount recognized for depreciation and accretion and the amount collected in rates, as required pursuant to SFAS No.&nbsp;71, for those amounts it
has collected in rates or expects to collect in future rates. The asset retirement obligations liability totaled $1.3 million and $1.3 million at March&nbsp;31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The changes in the asset retirement obligation for the

its New Hampshire Division&#146;s unusually high reported UAFG levels. The apparent cause appeared to be incorrect metering by Spectra Energy (&#147;<I>Spectra</I>&#148;) at the Maritimes&nbsp;&amp; Northeast (&#147;<I>M&amp;NE</I>&#148;) / Portland
Natural Gas Transmission System&#146;s (&#147;<I>PNGTS</I>&#148;) Newington Gate Station in Newington, New Hampshire (&#147;<I>Newington Gate Station</I>&#148;) caused by an erroneous meter module change on May&nbsp;25, 2005. Because of the recent
discovery of this cause, Northern Utilities sought from the New Hampshire Commission and obtained an extension until February&nbsp;15, 2008 to file the requested report showing accurate volumetric adjustments to correct Northern Utilities&#146; UAFG
levels and associated cost impacts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;15, 2008, Northern Utilities filed its report with the New Hampshire Commission.
Northern Utilities reported that it was working with Granite State and Spectra to determine the exact volume of gas that was over-recorded as a result of Spectra erroneously updating its Newington Gate Station meter module in May&nbsp;2005. As a
result of these efforts, Northern Utilities received confirmation from Spectra on January&nbsp;28, 2008, that Granite State was erroneously billed for an additional 758,709 Dth of natural gas between May 2005 and December 2007. As the primary
transportation customer of Granite State at the Newington station, and due to the service arrangements under which Northern Utilities receives service from Granite State, the total amount of the error was passed through to Northern Utilities.
Northern Utilities calculates that it was overcharged by approximately $5.7 million for gas purchases directly related to this meter error based on gas prices in effect at the time of the error. This overcharge in turn was passed on to Northern
Utilities customers through the normal operation of the gas cost recovery mechanism. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although Northern Utilities anticipates it will have a
refund liability for the overcharges, the timing and extent is not clear. The New Hampshire Commission has not yet suggested that Northern Utilities would be liable for refunds in the absence of its receipt of a recovery from a third party. Under
the traditional application of the gas cost recovery rules, Northern Utilities would flow through any refund received from a third party. As of June 2008, Northern Utilities has recorded approximately $10.3 million reflecting the anticipated
liability of the future refund amount based on current market prices with an offsetting receivable from Granite State. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Northern Utilities
has been informed by Spectra that resolution of the issue and any cash-out or refund that needs to be made to Granite State and/or Northern Utilities, requires the involvement of PNGTS. Although PNGTS has agreed to repay the lost gas to Granite
State over an 18 month period, final documents memorializing the payback have not been completed. Northern Utilities has agreed to inform the New Hampshire Commission at 120-day intervals until an acceptable resolution is reached. </FONT></P> <P

providers of healthcare benefits for retirees. It is probable that these liabilities will be passed back to customers. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because NiSource is

accounted for retirement obligations on its assets using Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;143, &#147;Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations&#148; (SFAS No.&nbsp;143). In the fourth quarter 2005, the Company adopted the
provisions of FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;47, &#147;Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations&#148; (FIN 47), which broadened the scope of SFAS No.&nbsp;143 to include contingent asset retirement obligations and also provided
additional guidance for the measurement of the asset retirement obligations. The impact of adopting FIN 47 was an increase in Gas Utility Plant in Service of $0.9 million, an increase in Asset Retirement Obligation liabilities of $1.4 million,
decrease in Regulatory Liabilities of $0.5 million, increase in Regulatory Assets of $0.1 million and an increase to Accumulated Depreciation of $0.1 million. This accounting standard and the related interpretation require entities to record the
fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the cost, thereby increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset.
Over time, the liability is accreted and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. The Company defers the difference between the amount recognized for depreciation and accretion and the amount collected in rates,
as required pursuant to SFAS No.&nbsp;71, for those amounts it has collected in rates or expects to collect in future rates. The asset retirement obligations liability totaled $1.2 million and $1.3 million at December&nbsp;31, 2007 and
December&nbsp;31, 2006, respectively. The changes in the asset retirement obligation for the years 2007 and 2006 are presented in the table below (in whole $): </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

issued FIN 48 to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement requirements related to accounting for income taxes. Specifically, this interpretation requires that a tax position meet a
&#147;more-likely-than-not recognition threshold&#148; for the benefit of an uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements and requires that benefit to be measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50%
likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The determination of whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is based on whether it is probable of being sustained on audit by the appropriate taxing authorities,
based solely on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006. On January&nbsp;1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company was not required to record any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The
Company has no uncertain tax position as of December&nbsp;31, 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>SFAS No.&nbsp;157&nbsp;&#151;&nbsp;Fair Value

beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007 and should be applied prospectively, with limited exceptions. SFAS No.&nbsp;157 became effective for the Company as of January&nbsp;1, 2008. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the

that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Upon adoption, a cumulative adjustment will be made to beginning retained earnings for the initial fair value option remeasurement. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses for fair value
option items will be reported in earnings. SFAS No.&nbsp;159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007 and should not be applied retrospectively, except as permitted for certain conditions for early adoption. The Company
has chosen not to elect to measure any applicable financial assets or liabilities at fair value pursuant to this standard when SFAS No.&nbsp;159 was adopted on January&nbsp;1, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

June 2006, the FASB issued FIN&nbsp;48 to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement requirements related to accounting for income taxes. Specifically, this interpretation requires that a tax
position meet a &#147;more-likely-than-not recognition threshold&#148; for the benefit of an uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements and requires that benefit to be measured at the largest amount of benefit that is
greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. When determining whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is to be based on whether it is probable of being sustained on audit by the
appropriate taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN&nbsp;48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. When determining whether a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is to be based on whether it is probable of being sustained on audit by the
appropriate taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN&nbsp;48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

value. Upon adoption, a cumulative adjustment will be made to beginning retained earnings for the initial fair value option remeasurement. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses for fair value option items will be reported in earnings.
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007 and should not be applied retrospectively, except as permitted for certain conditions for early adoption. Granite has chosen not to elect to measure any
applicable financial assets of liabilities at fair value pursuant to this standard when SFAS No.&nbsp;159 was adopted on January&nbsp;1, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Granite accounts for retirement obligations on its assets in accordance with SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;143, &#147;Accounting for Asset Retirements Obligations.&#148; In the fourth quarter 2005, Granite adopted the provisions
of FIN&nbsp;47, &#147;Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations,&#148; which broadened the scope of SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;143 to include contingent asset retirement obligations and it also provided additional guidance for the measurement
of the asset retirement liabilities. The initial impact of adopting FIN 47 was $113,183. This accounting standard and the related interpretation requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the
period in which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the cost, thereby increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted, and the capitalized cost is
depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Granite defers the difference between the amount recognized for depreciation and accretion and the amount collected in rates as required pursuant to SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;71 for those amounts it
has collected in rates or expects to collect in future rates. Currently the deferred amount for this difference is zero. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Granite has
recognized asset retirement obligations associated with various obligations including, certain costs to retire pipeline, and removal of certain pipelines known to contain PCB contamination as well as some other nominal asset retirement obligations.
The asset retirement obligation totaled $128,096 and $120,409, at December&nbsp;31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 Granite recognized accretion expense of $7,687, $7,226, and zero
respectively. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Changes in Granite&#146;s liability for asset retirement obligations for the years 2007 and 2006 are presented in the table

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Registrant is organized under the laws of the State of New Hampshire. The New Hampshire Business Corporation Act (NHBCA) provides that a corporation
may indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding because he is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if: (1)&nbsp;he conducted himself in good faith; and (2)&nbsp;he reasonably believed (i)&nbsp;in the case of
conduct in his official capacity with the corporation, that his conduct was in its best interests; and (ii)&nbsp;in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to its best interests; and (3)&nbsp;in the case of any criminal
proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. A corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is a party to a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding if
(1)&nbsp;the director furnishes the corporation a written affirmation of his good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct described in the preceding sentence, (2)&nbsp;the director furnishes the corporation an undertaking, executed
personally or on his behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he did not meet the standard of conduct and (3)&nbsp;a determination is made that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude
indemnification. Unless a corporation&#146;s Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, the corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer, employee or agent of the corporation who is not a director to the same extent as to a
director. A corporation may not indemnify a director (x)&nbsp;in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the director was adjudged liable to the corporation; or (y)&nbsp;in connection with any other proceeding
charging improper personal benefit to him, whether or not involving action in his official capacity, in which he was adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by him. Unless limited by its Articles of Incorporation,
a corporation shall indemnify a director or officer who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director or officer of the corporation against reasonable
expenses incurred by him in connection with the proceeding. A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of an individual who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or who, while a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation, is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan, or other enterprise, against liability asserted against or incurred by him in that capacity or arising from his status as a director, officer, employee, or agent, whether or not the corporation would have power to indemnify him against the
same liability under the NHBCA. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Article X of the Registrant&#146;s By-Laws provides that the Registrant shall indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the person&#146;s having served as, or by reason of the
person&#146;s alleged acts or omissions while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or while serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement or otherwise actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, if
the person acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was
unlawful, said indemnification to be to the full extent permitted by law under the circumstances, including, without limitation, by all applicable provisions of the NHBCA. Any indemnification under Article X shall be made by the Registrant with
respect to Directors or other persons after a determination that the person to be indemnified has met the standards of conduct set forth in the NHBCA, such determination to be made by the Board of Directors, by majority vote of a quorum, or by other
persons authorized to make such a determination under the NHBCA. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The right of indemnification arising under Article X was adopted for the
purpose of inducing persons to serve and to continue to serve the Registrant without concern that their service may expose them to personal financial harm. It is to be broadly construed, applied and implemented in light of that purpose. It is not to
be exclusive of any other right to which any such person is entitled under any agreement, vote of the stockholders or the Board of Directors, statute, or as a matter of law, or otherwise, nor is it to be construed to limit or confine in any respect
the power of the Board of Directors to grant indemnity pursuant to any applicable statutes or laws of the State of New Hampshire. The provisions of Article X are separable, and, if any provision or portion thereof is for any reason held
inapplicable, illegal or ineffective, such holding will not affect any other right of indemnification existing under Article X or otherwise. As used in Article X, the term &#147;person&#148; includes heirs, executors, administrators or other legal
representatives. As used in Article X, the terms &#147;Director&#148; and &#147;officer&#148; include persons elected or appointed as officers by the Board of Directors, persons elected as Directors by the stockholders or by the Board of Directors,
and persons who serve by vote or at the request of the Registrant as directors, officers or trustees of another organization in which the Registrant has any direct or indirect interest as a shareholder, creditor or otherwise. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Article X of the Registrant&#146;s By-Laws also allows the Registrant to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who was or is a Director,
officer or employee of the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries, or who was or is serving at the request of the Registrant as a fiduciary of any employee benefit plan of the Registrant or any subsidiary, against any liability asserted against, and
incurred by, such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person&#146;s status as such, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of the NHBCA. The obligation
to indemnify and reimburse such person under the Registrant&#146;s By-Laws, if applicable, will be reduced by the amount of any such insurance proceeds paid to such person, or the representatives or successors of such person. </FONT></P> <P
