Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, in such

amounts, on such terms and for such consideration as may be determined by the Board of Directors.

To the extent not fixed and determined by these Sections, the series designation, dividend rate,

SECTION II.. DIVIDENDS

Section 1 .  The holders of any series of the Preferred Stock shall receive, when declared by

the Board of Directors, preferential dividends at such rate and payable on such dividend payment

dates in each year as said Board may determine at the time of its vote to issue said series,

such dividends to be payable to Preferred Stockholders of record on such dates as may be fixed by

said Board, but not more than 45 days before each dividend date, provided, however, that dividends

shall not be declared and set apart for payment, or paid, on Preferred Stock of any one series, for

any dividend period, unless dividends have been or are contemporaneously declared and set apart

for payment, or paid, on the Preferred Stock of all series for all dividend periods terminating on the

same or an earlier date.

Section 2 .  Dividends on each share of the Preferred Stock shall be cumulative from the date

declare any dividends or make any other distributions in respect of outstanding shares of any junior

stock of the Company, other than dividends or distributions in shares of junior stock, or purchase or

otherwise acquire for value any outstanding shares of junior stock (the declaration of any such

dividend or the making of any such distribution, purchase or acquisition being herein called a

"junior stock payment") in contravention of the following:

(a)  If and so long as the junior stock equity (hereinafter defined),  adjusted to reflect

the proposed junior stock payment, at the end of the calendar month immediately preceding the

calendar month in which the proposed junior stock payment is to be made is less than 20% of total

capitalization (hereinafter defined) at that date, the Company shall not make such junior

stock payment in an amount which, together with all other junior stock payments made within the

year ending with and including the date on which the proposed junior stock payment is to be made,

exceeds 50% of the net income of the Company available for dividends on junior stock for the 12

full calendar months immediately preceding the calendar month in which such junior stock payment

is made, except in an amount not exceeding the aggregate of junior stock payments which under the

restrictions set forth above in this subsection (a) could have been, and have not been, made.

(b)  If and so long as the junior stock equity, adjusted to reflect the proposed junior

stock payment, at the end of the calendar month immediately preceding the calendar month in

the total capitalization at that date, the Company shall not make such junior stock payment in an

amount which, together with all other junior stock payments made within the year ending with and

including the date on which the proposed junior stock payment is to be made, exceeds 75% of the

net  income of the Company available for dividends on the junior stock for the 12 full calendar

months immediately preceding the calendar month in which such junior stock payment is made,

except in an amount not exceeding the aggregate of junior stock payments which under

the restrictions set forth above in this subsection (b) could have been, and have not been, made.

Section 5 .  The term "junior stock equity" as used in these Sections means the aggregate of

the par value of, or stated capital represented by, the outstanding shares of junior stock, all earned

surplus, capital or paid-in surplus, and any premiums on the junior stock then carried on the books

of the Company, less:

(a)  the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount payable on involuntary liquidation of

the Company upon all outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock over the sum of (i) the aggregate

par or stated value of such shares and (ii) any premiums thereon;

(b)  any amounts on the books of the Company known, or estimated if known, to represent the excess, if any, of recorded value over original cost of used or useful utility plant; and

(c)  any intangible items set forth on the asset side of the balance sheet of the

Company as a result of accounting convention, such as unamortized debt discount and expense,

provided, however, that no deductions shall be required to be made in respect of items referred to in

subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 5 in cases in which such items are being amortized or

are provided for, or are being provided for, by reserves.

Section 6 .  The term "total capitalization" as used in these Sections means the aggregate of:

(a)  the principal amount of all outstanding indebtedness of the Company maturing

more than 12 months after the date of issue thereof, and

3

(b)  the par value or stated capital represented by, and any premiums carried on the

books of the Company in respect of, the outstanding shares of all classes of the capital stock of the

Company, earned surplus, and capital or paid-in surplus, less any amounts required to be deducted

pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) of Section 5 of this Section II in the determination of junior

stock equity.

SECTION III. REDEMPTION OR PURCHASE OF PREFERRED STOCK

Section 1 .  All or any part of any series of the Preferred Stock at any time outstanding may

be called by vote of the Board of Directors for redemption at any time and in the manner

hereinbelow provided.  If less than all of any series of the Preferred Stock is so called, the Transfer

Agent shall determine by lot, or in some other proper manner approved by the Board of Directors,

the shares of such series of Preferred Stock to be called.  The redemption prices with respect to any

series of the Preferred Stock shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of its vote to

issue said series.

Section 2 .  No call for redemption of less than all of the Preferred Stock outstanding shall be

made if the Company shall be in arrears with respect to payment of dividends on any shares of the

Preferred Stock outstanding.

Section 3 .  Subject to the provisions of Section 2 of this Section III, all or any part of any

series of the Preferred Stock may be called for redemption without calling any part or all of any

other series of the Preferred Stock.

Section 4 .  The sums payable in respect of any Preferred Stock so called shall be payable at

the office of an incorporated bank or trust company in good standing.  Notice of such call, stating

the redemption date and the place where the stock so called is payable shall be mailed not less than

30 days before the redemption date to each holder of stock so called at his or her address as it

appears upon the books of the Company.

Section 5 .  The Company shall, before the redemption date, deposit with said bank or trust

company all sums payable with respect to the Preferred Stock so called.  After such mailing and

deposit the holders of the Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall cease to have any right to

future dividends or other rights or privileges as stockholders in respect of such stock and shall

be entitled only to the payment on the redemption date of the sums so deposited with said bank or

trust company for their respective accounts.  Stock so redeemed may be reissued but only subject to

the limitations imposed by these Sections upon the issue of Preferred Stock.

Section 6 .  The Company may at any time purchase all or any of the then outstanding shares

of the Preferred Stock of any class and series upon the best terms reasonably obtainable, but not

exceeding the then current redemption price of such shares, except that no such purchase shall be

4

made if the Company shall be in arrears with respect to payment of dividends on any shares of the

Preferred Stock outstanding or if there shall exist an event of default as defined in Section V hereof.

SECTION IV. AMOUNTS PAYABLE ON LIQUIDATION

The holders of any series of the Preferred Stock shall receive upon any voluntary

liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company the then current redemption price of such

series and, if such action is involuntary, $50 per share, plus all dividends accrued and unpaid to the

date of such payment, before any payment in liquidation is made on any junior stock.  If the net

assets of the Company shall be insufficient to pay said amounts in full, then the entire net assets of

the Company shall be distributed among the holders of the Preferred Stock, who shall receive a

common percentage of the full respective preferential amounts.

SECTION V. VOTING POWERS

Section 1 .  Except as provided in these Sections and as provided by law, the holders of the

Preferred Stock shall have no voting power or right to notice of any meeting.

Section 2 .  Whenever the holders of the Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote or

consent to an action as provided in these Sections or as provided by law, each outstanding share of

Preferred Stock entitled to vote shall be entitled to one vote on each such matter.

Section 3 .  Whenever dividends on any share of the Preferred Stock shall be in arrears in an

amount equal to or exceeding full dividends for one year thereon, or whenever there shall have

occurred some default in the observance of any of the provisions of these Sections, or some default

on which action has been taken by the bondholders or the trustees of any indenture of mortgage

or deed of trust of the Company, or whenever the Company shall have been declared bankrupt or a

receiver of its property shall have been appointed (said conditions being herein called "events of

default"), then the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be given notice of all stockholders' meetings

and shall have the right to elect the smallest number of directors necessary to constitute a majority

of the Board of Directors of the Company and the exclusive right to amend the By-Laws to make

such appropriate increase in the number of directorships as may be required to effect such election.

When all such arrears of dividends shall have been paid and such event of default shall have

terminated, all the rights and powers of the holders of the Preferred Stock to receive notice and to

vote shall cease, subject to being again revived on any subsequent event of default.

Section 4 .  Whenever the right to elect directors shall have accrued to the holders of the

Preferred Stock, the Company shall call a meeting for the election of directors and, if necessary, the

amendment of the By-Laws to permit the holders of the Preferred Stock to exercise their rights

pursuant to Section 3 of this Section V, such meeting to be held not less than 45 days and not more

than 90 days after the accrual of such rights.  When such rights shall cease, the Company shall,

within seven days from the delivery to the Company of a written request therefor by any

stockholder, cause a meeting of the stockholders to be held within 30 days from the delivery of such

request for the purpose of electing a new Board of Directors.  Forthwith, upon the election of such

new Board of Directors, the directors in office immediately prior to such election (other than

persons elected directors in such election) shall be deemed removed from office without further

action by the Company.

SECTION VI. ACTION REQUIRING CERTAIN CONSENT OF PREFERRED

STOCKHOLDERS

Section 1 .  Except with the consent of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the

Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, given in writing or by vote at a meeting duly called and

held for the purpose, the Company shall not authorize or issue any class of capital stock having

a priority over the Preferred Stock in respect of the payment of dividends or payments in case of

liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or issue any shares of any such prior ranking

stock more than 12 months after the date of such authorization.

Section 2 .  Except with the consent of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the

Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, given in writing or by vote at a meeting duly called and

held for the purpose, the Company shall not amend, alter, or repeal any of the rights, preferences or

powers of the holders of the Preferred Stock so as to affect adversely any such rights, preferences or

powers; provided, however, that no reduction of the dividend rate, the redemption prices, or

the amount to be paid on liquidation with respect to any share of the Preferred Stock may be made

without the consent of the holder thereof and no such reduction with respect to the shares of

any particular series of the Preferred Stock shall be made without the consent of all the holders of

shares of such series.

Section 3 .  So long as any of the Preferred Stock is outstanding neither the authorized total

number of shares nor the authorized aggregate of stated value or par value of the Preferred Stock

and stock ranking on a parity with the Preferred Stock in respect of the payment of dividends or

payments in case of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company shall be increased

beyond 9,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock and $450,000,000 aggregate of stated value or par

value of Preferred Stock, unless such increase is approved, at a stockholders' meeting duly called

and held, by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Preferred Stock,

represented in person or by proxy at said meeting or of such larger number of shares as the then

applicable statutes of the State of Connecticut may require for such purpose.

Section 4 .  Except with the consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock at the

time outstanding, given in writing or by vote at a meeting duly called and held for the purpose, the

Company shall not:

1. Issue or assume any unsecured notes, unsecured debentures or other securities

representing unsecured debt (other than for the purpose of refunding or renewing outstanding

unsecured securities issued or assumed by the Company resulting in equal or longer maturities or

redeeming or otherwise retiring all outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock) if immediately after

such issue or assumption (a) the total outstanding principal amount of all unsecured

notes, unsecured debentures or other securities representing unsecured debt of the Company will

thereby exceed 20% of the aggregate of all outstanding secured debt of the Company and the capital

stock, premiums thereon, and surplus of the Company, as stated on its books, or (b) the total

outstanding principal amount of all unsecured notes, unsecured debentures or other securities

representing unsecured debt of the Company of maturities of less than 10 years will thereby exceed

10% of the aggregate of all outstanding secured debt of the Company and the capital stock,

premiums thereon, and surplus of the Company, as stated on its books.  For the purposes of this

6

subsection (1), the payment due upon the maturity of unsecured debt having an original single

stated maturity of 10 years or more shall not be regarded as unsecured debt with a maturity of less

than 10 years until within three years of the maturity thereof, and none of the payments due upon

any unsecured serial debt having an original stated maturity for the final serial payment of 10 years

or more shall be regarded as unsecured debt of a maturity of less than 10 years until within three

years of the maturity of the final serial payment.

2.   Issue, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of the then authorized but unissued

Preferred Stock or any other stock ranking on a parity with or having a priority over the Preferred

Stock in respect of dividends or payment in case of liquidation, or reissue, sell or otherwise dispose

of any reacquired shares of Preferred Stock or such other stock, other than to refinance an equal par

value or stated value of Preferred Stock or of stock ranking on a parity with the Preferred Stock in

respect of dividends or payment in case of liquidation,

(i)  if, for a period of 12 consecutive calendar months within 15 calendar

months immediately preceding the calendar month in which any such shares shall be

issued, the Income before Interest Charges of the Company for said period available

for the payment of interest, determined in accordance with the systems of accounts

then prescribed for the Company by the Department of Public Utility Control of the

State of Connecticut (or by such other official body as may then have authority to

prescribe such systems of accounts), but in any event after deducting taxes including

taxes based on income and the amount charged by the Company on its books to

depreciation expense, (including, in any case in which such stock is to be issued,

sold or otherwise disposed of in connection with the acquisition of any property, the

Income before Interest Charges of the property to be so acquired, computed as

nearly as practicable in the manner specified above) shall not have been at least one

and one-half (1 1/2) times the sum of (a) the interest charges for one year on all

indebtedness which shall then be outstanding (including any indebtedness proposed

to be created in connection with the issue, sale or other disposition of such shares,

but not including any indebtedness proposed to be retired in connection with such

issue, sale or other disposition or indebtedness held by or for the account of the

Company) and (b) such rental charges as shall not be deducted in such

determination of Income before Interest Charges and (c) an amount equal to all

annual dividend requirements on all outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock and

all other stock, if any, ranking on a parity with or having priority over the Preferred

Stock as to dividends or payment in case of liquidation, including the shares

proposed to be issued, but not including any shares proposed to be retired in

connection with such issue, sale or other disposition; or

(ii) if such issue, sale or disposition would bring the aggregate of the amount

payable in connection with an involuntary liquidation of the Company with respect

to all shares of the Preferred Stock and all shares of stock, if any, ranking on a parity

with or having priority over the Preferred Stock as to dividends or payment in case

of liquidation to an amount in excess of the sum of the junior stock equity.  If for the

purposes of meeting the requirements of this clause (ii), it shall have been necessary

to take into consideration any earned surplus of the Company, the Company shall

not thereafter pay any dividends on or make any distributions in respect of, or make

7

any payment for the purchase or other acquisition of junior stock which would result

in reducing the junior stock equity to an amount less than the amount payable on

involuntary liquidation of the Company with respect to the Preferred Stock and all

shares ranking on a parity with or having a priority over the Preferred Stock in

respect of dividends or payment in case of liquidation at the time outstanding.

If during the period for which Income before Interest Charges is to be determined for the

purpose set forth in this subsection (2), the amount, if any, required to be expended by the Company

during such period for property additions pursuant to a renewal and replacement fund or similar

fund established under any indenture of mortgage or deed of trust of the Company shall exceed the

amount deducted during such period in the determination of such Income before Interest Charges

on account of depreciation and amortization of electric and gas plant acquisition adjustments, such

excess shall also be deducted in determining such Income before Interest Charges.

If, pursuant to this Section 4, holders of one-third (1/3) of the aggregate voting rights

represented by the shares of the Preferred Stock then outstanding dissent in writing from or vote

against any proposed action, action shall not be taken unless subsequently authorized in compliance

with all provisions of this Section 4, including this sentence.

Section 5 .  No share of Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be "outstanding" within the

meaning of this Section VI or of Section VII if, at or prior to the time when the consent or approval

herein or therein referred to would otherwise be required, provision shall be made for its

redemption, including a deposit complying with the requirements of Section 5 of Section III.

SECTION VII. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ALL ASSETS

Except with the consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock at the time

outstanding, given in writing or by vote at a meeting duly called and held for the purpose, the

Company shall not merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation or sell or otherwise

dispose of all or substantially all of its assets (except by mortgage or pledge) unless such

merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition, or the issuance or assumption of securities in the

effectuation thereof shall have been ordered, approved or permitted by the appropriate regulatory

commission.

SECTION VIII. NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHT

The holders of the Preferred Stock shall have no preemptive right to subscribe to any future

issue of additional shares of the Preferred Stock or of any other preferred stock or any other class of

stock now or hereafter authorized, nor for any future issue of bonds, notes or other evidence of

indebtedness convertible into stock.

SECTION IX. TRANSFER AGENT

The Company shall always have at least one Transfer Agent for the Preferred Stock.

PART FOUR

PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE CLASS OF COMMON STOCK

Subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, the holders of Common Stock shall have

the dividend, voting, liquidation, preemptive and other rights to which they are entitled under the

general corporation law of the State of Connecticut, as from time to time in effect, except as

otherwise provided herein.  The holders of the Common Stock shall have no preemptive right

to subscribe to any future issues of Preferred Stock or any other preferred stock of any class now or

hereafter authorized (other than Preferred Stock or other preferred stock which is convertible into

Common Stock) nor to any future issues of bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness which

may be convertible into preferred stock.  As used in this paragraph, the term "preferred stock" shall

mean stock which has, as against the Common Stock, preferential rights to the Company's assets in

the event of liquidation or preferential rights in respect of dividends or other distributions, and shall

include the aforementioned class of Preferred Stock.

The Board of Directors shall have the power to issue and dispose of, from time to time,

shares of the authorized and unissued Common Stock at such times, in such amounts, upon such

terms, and in such manner as it may determine, either for cash or property, or for securities

convertible into Common Stock, and to fix the amount of money or the actual value of the

consideration for which such authorized and unissued Common Stock shall be issued.

14

ARTICLE V

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS

EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS

The Company shall indemnify and advance reasonable expenses to an individual made or

threatened to be made a party to a proceeding because he or she is or was a Director of the

Company to the fullest extent permitted by law under Section 33-771 and Section 33-773 of the

Connecticut General Statutes, as may be amended from time to time ("Connecticut General

Statutes"). In connection with the advancement of reasonable expenses, the Company shall do so

provided that the Director delivers to the Company: (1) A written affirmation of his or her good

faith belief that he or she has met the relevant standard of conduct described in Section 33-771 of

the Connecticut General Statutes; and (2) his or her written undertaking to repay any funds

advanced if he or she is not entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section 33-772 of the

Connecticut General Statutes and it is ultimately determined under Section 33-774 or 33-775 of the

Connecticut General Statutes that he or she has not met the relevant standard of conduct described

in Section 33-771.  The Company shall also indemnify and advance reasonable expenses under

Connecticut General Statutes Sections 33-770 to 33-778, inclusive, as amended, to any officer,

employee or agent of the Company who is not a Director to the same extent as a Director and to

such further extent, consistent with public policy, as may be provided by contract, this Certificate of

Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Company or a resolution of the Board of Directors. In connection

with any advance for such expenses, the Company may, but need not, require any such officer,

employee or agent to deliver a written affirmation of his or her good faith belief that he or she has

met the relevant standard of conduct or a written undertaking to repay any funds advanced for

expenses if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification. The Board of

Directors, by resolution, the general counsel of the Company, or such additional officer or officers

as the Board of Directors may specify, shall have the authority to determine that indemnification or

advance for such expenses to any such officer, employee or agent is permissible and to authorize

payment of such indemnification or advance for expenses. The Board of Directors, by resolution,

the general counsel of the Company, or such additional officer or officers as the Board of Directors

may specify, shall also have the authority to determine the terms on which the Company shall

advance expenses to any such officer, employee or agent, which terms need not require delivery by

such officer, employee or agent of a written affirmation of his or her good faith belief that he or she

has met the relevant standard of conduct or a written undertaking to repay any funds advanced for

such expenses if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification.

The indemnification and advance for expenses provided for herein shall not be deemed

exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified or eligible for advance for expenses may

be entitled under Connecticut law as in effect on the effective date hereof and as thereafter amended

or any Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to

action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such

office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent

and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

No lawful repeal or modification of this Article V or the adoption of any provision

inconsistent herewith by the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company or change in

statute shall apply to or have any effect on the obligations of the Company to indemnify or to pay

15

for or reimburse in advance expenses incurred by a director, officer, employee or agent of the

Company in defending any proceeding arising out of or with respect to any acts or omissions

occurring at or prior to the effective date of such repeal, modification or adoption of a provision or

statutes change inconsistent herewith.
