Reflects the combination of the historical information of Northeast
and Yankee to give effect to the acquisition of Yankee by Northeast
as if it occurred by January 1, 2000 instead of March 1, 2000.
Note B. Goodwill
Reflects adjustment to record the goodwill resulting from the
merger:
Purchase of 148.7 million Northeast common shares $3,940,000
Estimated direct costs incurred in consummating the merger 50,000
Elimination of Northeast Shareholders' equity on September 30, 2000 (2,405,322)
Addition of Northeast goodwill to purchase price 332,664
-----------
Total goodwill created as a result of the merger $1,917,342
===========
Amortization of goodwill over 1-year period (assuming straight line method
over 40 years) $47,934
Elimination of Northeast purchased goodwill (332,664)
Reversal of amortization of Northeast purchased goodwill over 1-year period (8,317)
Note C. Common Shareholders' Equity

discussed in Note D net of the elimination of Northeast
shareholders' equity.
Elimination of Northeast shareholders' equity ($2,405,322)
Issuance of stock to purchase Northeast common shares 1,970,000
-----------
($435,322)
===========
Note D. Merger Consideration
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial
statements assume that 50% of the outstanding Northeast common
shares were exchanged for cash consideration of $26.50 and 50%
of the outstanding Northeast common shares were exchanged for
.646 shares of New Con Edison common stock. We have assumed
that the cash payment to Northeast shareholders will be
financed through the issuance of long-term debt. The merger
consideration was determined assuming that the merger would be
consummated on December 31, 2000, the average trading price of
Con Edison common shares over the specified period would be
$41.00 and the value of the fraction of a share of New Con
Edison common stock delivered to Northeast shareholders would
remain at $26.50 at the time of delivery. A Con Edison share
price of $41.00 has been assumed because it represents the
midpoint of the price collar established for Con Edison's
share price.
Cash payment to Northeast shareholders $1,970,000
Stock payment to Northeast shareholders 1,970,000
-----------
Purchase of 148.7 million Northeast common shares $3,940,000

over one year at an effective interest rate of 8.5% inclusive
of costs of issuance, the proceeds of which may be used to
fund the cash consideration to be paid to Northeast shareholders $167,450
========
A 1/8 of 1% variation in the interest rate would result in a $2.5
million change in interest expense.

<TABLE>
<S> <C> <C>
Note G. Outstanding Shares (12 Months)
Reflects the issuance of 47,966,000 New Con Edison shares at an
assumed issuance cost of $41.00 as described in Note D net of the

shares of New Con Edison common stock per Northeast common share 47,966
