Dear Shareholder:
We have previously mailed to you proxy material relating to the Annual
Meeting of Shareholders of Connecticut Natural Gas Corporation to be held on
Tuesday, February 25, 1997. If you have already completed and returned the
proxy card, please disregard this letter. Thank you for your prompt
attention to the matter.
If you have not completed and returned the proxy card, we urge you to do so
immediately. Approval of Proposal 2 enables the Company to reorganize
itself under a "holding company" structure, which is common in the utility
industry.
It is important that your proxy be returned promptly to allow the
reorganization to take place and the Company's progress to continue. If it
is more convenient to send your vote via fax, please send it to us at the
following number: (860) 727-3064. If you fail to vote, such action has
the same effect as a vote against the Proposal.
For the reasons set forth in the Proxy Statement dated January 6, 1997, your
Board of Directors strongly recommends that you vote "FOR" approval of all
proposals on the meeting agenda.
Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.
Sincerely,
S/ Victor H. Frauenhofer
Victor H. Frauenhofer
Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer
