Explanation of Responses:

1. Disposition of common shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations.

2. Includes restricted share units and dividend equivalents thereon.

3. This line re-reports a line from a Form 4 filed by the reporting person on January 29, 2026 to reflect the number of dividend equivalents received in connection with the performance share award determined on January 27, 2026 because the original report inadvertently misreported the dividends.

4. Performance shares and dividend equivalent shares for the 2023-2025 Long-Term Incentive Program as determined on January 27, 2026.

5. Shares held in trust under the Eversource 401k Plan, a qualified plan, according to information supplied by the Plan's record keeper.

6. Reporting Person's deferred compensation under the Eversource Deferred Compensation Plan, a non-qualified plan, that is nominally invested as common shares. Each phantom share represents the right to receive one common share upon a distribution event, following vesting. Additional phantom shares are issued upon the automatic reinvestment of dividend-equivalents and are exempt from the line item reporting under SEC rule 16a-11.
