RE: SPECIAL 5% DISCOUNT OFFER TO DRIP PLAN PARTICIPANTS
Dear Shareholder:
This letter supplements certain information contained in the
prospectus dated May 28, 1993, (the "Prospectus") covering the
Companys Dividend Reinvestment and Common Stock Purchase Plan (the
"Plan"). It refers especially to the reduced purchase price provision
covered in the answer to Question 14 of the Prospectus.
For a limited period of time Middlesex Water Company is offering to
sell shares of its Common Stock at a 5% discount to participants in the
Plan. The offer applies to all purchases under the Plan made between
May 2, 1995, and December 1, 1995, whether by Optional Cash Payment,
Dividend Reinvestment or employee payroll deduction. To take advantage
of this offer through Optional Cash Payments, the cash payment form
attached to your statement of account, together with your payment, must
be received by the Agent (Registrar and Transfer Company, 10 Commerce
Drive, Cranford, NJ 07016) between April 20, 1995, and November 20,
1995.
The 5% reduction in price will also apply to dividends paid and
reinvested on June 1, 1995 (to holders of record May 15, 1995),
September 1, 1995, (to holders of record August 15, 1995, and December
1, 1995, (to holders of record November 15, 1995).
This offer is limited to 100,000 shares on a first-come, first-
served basis. During this reduction period, the price of the stock will
be 95% of the Normal Purchase Price (or the Determined Purchase Price,
if applicable) as described in the answer to Question 14 in the
Prospectus.
If purchases are made at the reduced price and shares are then
withdrawn from the Plan within six months after the purchase you will be
subject to a withdrawal fee equal to the original 5% per share reduction
on all shares withdrawn.
You should refer to the Prospectus for details and other terms of
the Plan. If you have any questions about this proposal, please feel
free to call Marion F. Reynolds, Vice President, Secretary-Treasurer of
the Company. If you do not wish to participate in this offer, except
for the reinvestment of dividends, no action is required on your part.
Sincerely,
MIDDLESEX WATER COMPANY
