To the Participants and Administrative Committee of the
Central Maine Power Company
   Employee Savings and Investment Plan for Union Employees

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Central Maine Power Company Employee Savings and Investment Plan for Union Employees (the Plan) as of December 31, 2004, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Central Maine Power Company Employee Savings and Investment Plan for Union Employees as of December 31, 2004, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of loans or fixed income obligations in default or classified as uncollectible, assets (held at end of year) and reportable transactions as of or for the year ended December 31, 2004, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the United States Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The schedule of reportable transactions that accompanies the Plan's financial statements does not disclose the historical cost and net gain or loss on certain transactions. Disclosure of this information is required by the United States Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following description of the Central Maine Power Company (Company) Employee Savings and Investment Plan for Union Employees (Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

General

The Plan was established by the Company on November 15, 1984, and became effective January 1, 1985, under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code), and it includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement as described in Section 401(k) of the Code for the benefit of eligible employees of the Company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Plan Administrator is the Company and an Administrative Committee has been appointed to serve as manager of the Plan.

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering union employees of the Company, as well as employees of Energy East Corporation's (Energy East) family of companies that elect to participate under the Plan provisions. Energy East, the parent corporation of the Company, through its subsidiaries, delivers electricity and natural gas to retail customers and provides electricity, natural gas, energy management and other services to retail and wholesale customers in the Northeast.

Eligibility

Each employee of the Company or an affiliated employer who is in a unit of employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement is eligible to join the Plan after completing one year of service during which the employee has worked at least 1,000 hours.

Contributions

Each participant elects a salary reduction percentage to be contributed to the Plan. Participants may elect to make contributions in amounts equal to 2% to 50% (in multiples of 1%) of their base compensation to the Plan through salary reduction agreements. As of January 1, 2002, participants age 50 or over by the end of the Plan year can make an additional contribution to the Plan in accordance with and subject to the limitations of Section 414(v) of the Code. The maximum additional contribution in 2003 was $2,000 and increases by $1,000 a year until the additional contribution reaches a maximum of $5,000 in 2006.

As of April 1, 2002, the Plan accepts rollovers from other qualified plans, as well as 403(b) and government 457 plans, traditional Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), conduit IRAs (but not Roth IRAs), after-tax distributions from employer retirement plans and spousal death benefit payments.

For employees that were hired prior to May 1, 2000, the Company contributes to the Plan an amount equal to 60% of the first 5% of the salary reduction plus 50% of the next 2% for

1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN  (Continued)

Contributions (Continued)

a possible total match of 4% on a 7% salary reduction amount, provided, however, that the total contribution that the Company is obligated to make for any year does not exceed the maximum amount deductible from the Company's gross income under applicable provisions of the Code. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company contributes to the Plan on behalf of each participant hired on or after May 1, 2000, a matching contribution in an amount equal to 100% of each participant's contribution up to 4% of compensation. The Company's matching contribution is made simultaneously with the payroll cycle. As of January 1, 2002, the Energy East Stock Fund was converted to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Dividends from the ESOP may be reinvested or taken in cash.

Benefit Payments

On termination of service a participant may elect either a lump sum amount equal to the value of the interest in the participant's account, or installments over a period permissible under the Code. Distributions made from the funds occur as a result of termination of employment, death, retirement or permanent disability no later than 60 days after the end of the Plan year, unless under certain circumstances participants elect otherwise.

A participant may elect to make a regular withdrawal of up to 100% of the value of the participant's contributions under certain conditions and earnings thereon are treated as pre-tax contributions. Only one regular withdrawal may be made in any year. The minimum withdrawal was increased to $1,000, effective May 1, 2000.

Other withdrawals with respect to contributions made subsequent to July 1, 1985, may be made only for reasons of hardship. With the consent of the Company's Savings and Investment Plan Committee for Union Employees, a participant may elect to make a hardship withdrawal, as determined in accordance with the Plan provisions, of up to 100% of the participant's account.

Vesting

Participants are 100% vested in their account balances. Each participant's account consists of the participant's contributions and any rollover money, the matching Company contribution and any net earnings thereon.

Participant Loans

Participants may, in general, borrow in the aggregate not more than 50% of their account balances, subject to a minimum loan of $1,000 and a maximum loan of $50,000. Loan interest rates are set by the Committee in accordance with prevailing rates charged by local banks. The interest rate on loans outstanding at year end was 7.25% for 2004 and 2003. The maximum term of the loans is generally five years, or longer for mortgages, with borrowed funds being repaid through payroll deductions.

1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN  (Continued)

Participant Loans (Continued)

If a participant's employment terminates for any reason, the loan will become immediately due and payable and must be paid within 90 days from the date of termination.

2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements are prepared on an accrual basis and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of additions and deductions during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered investment companies are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. Units of common/collective trust funds are valued at the net asset value of units held by the Plan at year end. The Energy East Stock Fund, comprised solely of Energy East common stock, is valued at its quoted market price at year end. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is accrued when earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Payments of Benefits

Benefits are recorded when paid.

Plan Termination

Although the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it has the right to discontinue contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the Company's collective bargaining agreement. In the event of termination of the Plan, the net assets of the Plan are set aside, first, for payment of all Plan expenses, and second, for distribution to participants based upon the balances in their individual accounts.

Risk and Uncertainties

The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks, fixed income securities, mutual funds, and other investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risk in the near term could materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and the Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.

Plan investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) appreciated in value during 2004 and 2003 as follows:

4.   INCOME TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service determined and informed the Company sponsor by letter dated February 21, 2001, that the Plan is qualified and the related trust established under the Plan is tax-exempt, under the applicable sections of the Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's management believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code.

5.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain Plan investments are shares of registered investment companies which were managed by Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company (Putnam) through December 30, 2004 and by T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services (T. Rowe Price) as of December 31, 2004. Putnam was the trustee as defined by the Plan through December 30, 2004 and T. Rowe Price became the trustee as defined by the Plan effective December 31, 2004; therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions and are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules.

6. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Substantially all administrative expenses are paid for by the Company.
