Company Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for the preparation, integrity, and fair presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements of
Public Service Company of New Hampshire and subsidiaries (PSNH or the Company) and of other sections of this annual report.
PSNH’s internal controls over financial reporting were audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. The Company’s internal
control framework and processes have been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There
are inherent limitations of internal controls over financial reporting that could allow material misstatements due to error or fraud to occur
and not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by employees during the normal course of business. Additionally, internal controls
over financial reporting may become inadequate in the future due to changes in the business environment.
Under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, PSNH conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this evaluation
under the framework in COSO, management concluded that internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31,
2009.
