REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Investment Review Committee and Participants of
KeySpan Energy 401(k) Plan for Management Employees:

We have audited the accompanying  statements of assets available for benefits of
KeySpan Energy 401(k) Plan for Management  Employees (the "Plan") as of December
31, 2005 and 2004, and the related  statement of changes in assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2005.  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 audits.  We conducted  our
audits in accordance with 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.  The Plan is not  required to have,  nor were we
engaged to perform,  an audit of its internal control over financial  reporting.
Our audits included  consideration of internal control over financial  reporting
as  a  basis  for  designing  audit  procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the
circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on the
effectiveness  of  the  Plan's  internal   control  over  financial   reporting.
Accordingly,  we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements,  assessing the accounting  principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

In our  opinion,  such  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects, the assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2005 and
2004,  and the  changes  in assets  available  for  benefits  for the year ended
December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting  principles  generally accepted
in the United States of America.

Our audits  were  conducted  for the  purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held
at end of  year)  as of  December  31,  2005 is  presented  for the  purpose  of
additional  analysis  and  is  not  a  required  part  of  the  basic  financial
statements,  but is  supplementary  information  required by the  Department  of
Labor's Rules and  Regulations  for Reporting and Disclosure  under the Employee
Retirement  Income  Security  Act of  1974.  The  supplemental  schedule  is the
responsibility of the Plan's  management.  Such  supplemental  schedule has been
subjected  to the  auditing  procedures  applied  in  our  audits  of the  basic
financial  statements  and, in our  opinion,  is fairly  stated in all  material
respects when considered in relation to the basic financial  statements taken as
a whole.

KEYSPAN ENERGY 401(k) PLAN FOR MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

     The following  description of the KeySpan Energy 401(k) Plan for Management
     Employees  (the  "Plan")   available  to  eligible   employees  of  KeySpan
     Corporation   (the   "Company"  or   "KeySpan"),   provides   only  general
     information.  Participants  should  refer to the Plan  Document  for a more
     complete description of the Plan's provisions.

     General - The Plan was approved by the  shareholders  of the Company at the
     annual meeting of  shareholders  on February 3, 1983. The Plan provides for
     eligible  employees of the Company and its selected  subsidiaries to become
     participants of the Plan. In general, all management employees,  as defined
     in the Plan Document,  are eligible to participate in the Plan  immediately
     upon hire.  The Plan is a defined  contribution  plan and is subject to the
     provisions  of  the  Employee   Retirement  Income  Security  Act  of  1974
     ("ERISA").

     The   recordkeeper  and  custodian  of  the  Plan  is  The  Vanguard  Group
     ("Vanguard")  and the trustee of the Plan is the Vanguard  Fiduciary  Trust
     Company.  The Vanguard  Fiduciary Trust Company was appointed to act as the
     trustee  under the Plan to receive and hold  Company  Common  Stock and the
     investment of  contributions  in the other funds as described herein and in
     the Plan Document.  Pursuant to a trust  document  executed by the Vanguard
     Fiduciary  Trust  Company,  the  trustee is  subject to the same  fiduciary
     responsibility to the Plan's participants as an independent trustee.

     Plan Amendments - Effective June 1, 2004, the Investment  Review  Committee
     (the  "Committee")  approved the  addition of Seneca  Upshur to the list of
     Participating  Employers  in the Plan.  Prior  service  time for all Seneca
     Upshur employees was recognized for vesting purposes in the Plan.

     Effective  March 1, 2005, the  involuntary  cash-out  threshold was reduced
     from $5,000 to $1,000.

     During the 1st  quarter of 2005,  KeySpan  divested of the  following  five
     subsidiaries:

       Subsidiary                             Date of Sale
       ----------                             ------------
       Granite State Plumbing                 January 14, 2005
       Northern Peabody                       January 18, 2005
       Delta, Inc.                            January 21, 2005
       Binsky and Synder, Inc.                January 31, 2005
       WDF Greene, Inc.                       February 11, 2005

     Employees  under these  subsidiaries  are not eligible to contribute to the
     Plan as of the  respective  dates of sale.  These  employees are considered
     terminated  participants  and have the same  distribution  options that are
     available to other terminated employees. On February 16, 2005 the Committee
     was informed that the aforementioned subsidiaries would be removed from the
     participating employer list.


                                       4



     On February 16, 2005, the Committee  approved the adoption of ERISA section
     404(c) for the mutual funds in KeySpan's  401(k) Plans.  Section  404(c) of
     ERISA states that if a plan sponsor, such as KeySpan,  gives participants a
     broad range of investment  options from which to choose, the opportunity to
     exercise  control  over  their  accounts,  and enough  information  to make
     informed  investment  decisions,  then each participant becomes responsible
     for the success or failure of his or her own investment program.

     Contributions  -All  participants  of the  Plan  may  elect  to have  their
     compensation reduced by not less than 1% and no more than 50% (in multiples
     of 1%) and  contributed  to the  Plan on the  participants'  behalf  by the
     Company.  Compensation  may not be  reduced by an amount  greater  than the
     limitation  imposed by Section  402(g) of the Internal  Revenue Code.  Such
     contributions  reduce the  amount of the  participants'  salary  subject to
     current Federal income tax and, subject to applicable laws, state and local
     income taxes. Such contributions are subject to Social Security taxes.

     All  eligible  employees  contributing  to the Plan will  receive  employer
     contributions  and a 10% discount on the Company  Common Stock on the first
     of the month following completion of three months of service. Additionally,
     all eligible  employees  will  receive  matching  contributions  in Company
     Common  Stock  and a 10%  discount  on  Company  Stock  for  such  matching
     contributions   regardless  of  where  employees  choose  to  invest  their
     contributions.  The match and discount  amounts may be  transferred  out of
     Company  Common  Stock  immediately.   There  are  no  holding  periods  or
     restrictions with respect to Company Common Stock. All other  contributions
     are participant-directed.

     Effective  January 1, 2002, the entire portion of a participant's  pre-tax,
     after-tax, matching, employer non-elective, rollover, and discount employer
     contribution  accounts that are invested in the Company  Common Stock shall
     be deemed part of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP").

     All  contributions  under the Plan are held in a trust  fund with a trustee
     who is appointed by the Committee and the Board of Directors. The Committee
     is also the administrative  committee of the Plan. The Plan makes available
     the funds in which participants may invest.  Such investment options may be
     changed from time to time.

     Rollover  Contributions  - If a participant of the Plan receives a lump sum
     distribution  from a qualified savings or profit sharing plan of a previous
     employer, a "rollover" contribution by the participant of the amount of the
     lump-sum distribution may be made to the Plan.

     Participant   Accounts  -  Individual  accounts  are  maintained  for  each
     participant.  Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
     contribution,  the Company's matching  contribution and discount on Company
     Common Stock, if applicable,  and allocations of (1) Company  discretionary
     contributions and (2) Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of Plan
     losses.  Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances,
     as defined.  A participant's  benefit is distributed from the participant's
     vested account as provided in the Plan Document.

     Vesting  and  Forfeitures  -  Participants  will be 100% vested in employer
     match  and  discount  contributions  on the  earlier  to  occur  of (i) the
     participant's  completion  of three (3) years of service  with the Company,
     (ii) the  participant's  retirement  from the Company at age  fifty-five or
     older,  (iii)  the  death of the  participant  (iv) the  disability  of the
     participant if the participant is receiving disability benefits under Title
     II of the Social Security Act or (v) the termination or partial termination


                                       5



     of the Plan. A participant  will be 100% vested  immediately  in his or her
     deferred cash contributions,  rollover/transfer contributions, and earnings
     thereon,  if any. If a participant  does not vest,  such  participant  will
     forfeit the match and discount,  and any earnings thereon into a forfeiture
     account, which is maintained by Vanguard.

     On  December  31,  2005 and 2004,  forfeited  non-vested  accounts  totaled
     $817,230 and $719,212  respectively.  These accounts will be used to reduce
     future employer contributions and pay Plan administration expenses.  During
     the year ended December 31, 2005,  employer  contributions  were reduced by
     $2,559 from forfeited non-vested accounts.

     Investments - All eligible  employees have an opportunity to acquire shares
     of Company Common Stock ($.01 par value) at a 10% discount.  In addition to
     Company Common Stock,  participants may invest in other investment  options
     (collectively, the "Funds").

     At the  direction  of the  participants,  Plan  assets are  invested in the
     KeySpan  Common  Stock  Fund,  and/or one or more of the  following  funds,
     namely: Vanguard Windsor Fund, Vanguard 500 Index Fund, Vanguard Retirement
     Savings Trust V, Vanguard Explorer Fund, Vanguard LifeStrategy Conservative
     Growth  Fund,   Vanguard   LifeStrategy   Moderate  Growth  Fund,  Vanguard
     LifeStrategy Growth Fund, Vanguard Windsor II Fund, Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund,
     Vanguard  International Growth Fund, Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund,
     Vanguard  Mid-Cap  Index Fund,  and American  Funds Growth Fund of America,
     Class  R-5  Shares.  Participants  should  refer to the  applicable  Fund's
     prospectus for a complete description of each of the Funds.

     On May 21, 2004, The Committee approved the removal of Vanguard U.S. Growth
     Fund,  the  addition of American  Funds  Growth Fund of America,  Class R-5
     ("American  Funds Growth Fund of America")  and the Vanguard  Mid-Cap Index
     Fund.  Beginning  August 20, 2004, no new  contributions  or transfers into
     Vanguard  U.S.  Growth  Fund  were  permitted.   Participant   contribution
     allocations to Vanguard U.S.  Growth Fund were redirected to American Funds
     Growth Fund of America.  Participants  were given 90 days to transfer their
     Vanguard U.S.  Growth Fund balances into other funds in the Plan  otherwise
     all remaining balances would automatically be transferred to American Funds
     Growth Fund of America.

     On November 19,  2004,  remaining  Vanguard  U.S.  Growth Fund  balances of
     $5,955,684 were transferred to American Funds Growth Fund of America.

     The Vanguard Mid-Cap Index was added as an investment option to the Plan to
     complement the existing fund options.

     On January 20, 2005 all participant balances in Vanguard Retirement Savings
     Trust,  with an  expense  ratio of  0.30%,  were  transferred  to  Vanguard
     Retirement Savings Trust V, which offers an expense ratio of 0.25%. The two
     funds hold identical investments.

     Liquidation  of Funds - During  2004,  in an effort  to allow  participants
     greater investment  flexibility,  the Preferred Stock and Substock funds in
     the Plan were  liquidated.  Proceeds paid to participants  were transferred
     from the respective  funds to the Vanguard  Retirement  Savings Trust.  The
     funds were  immediately  eligible to be  transferred  to other funds in the
     Plan. Details regarding the two liquidations are below.

     Preferred Stock Fund
     --------------------
     On June 30, 2004, KeySpan's Board of Directors authorized the redemption of
     all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock Series A partially held by
     the Plan in the Preferred Stock Fund.

     On July 29, 2004, the Preferred Stock Fund was  liquidated.  At the time of
     redemption,  2,601  participants  held 32,114 shares.  Each participant who
     held shares of the preferred stock received the par value of $100 per share
     plus a 2%  premium  for a total of $102 per  share.  The  total  redemption
     amount was  $3,275,582,  which included a premium of $64,228.  KeySpan paid
     accrued dividends through July 29, 2004 of $79,749 ($2.4833 per share).

     Sub-Stock Fund
     --------------
     On June 29, 2004, The Board of Directors of KeySpan Corporation  authorized
     the repurchase of all  outstanding  shares of the subsidiary  stock held by
     the Plan that were  currently  allocated to Plan  participants.  There were
     502,169  allocated  shares held in the KeySpan  Sub-Stock  fund with a fair
     market value of $1,027,131.

     On  October  15,  2004,  the  Sub-Stock  fund was  liquidated  and the Plan
     received total proceeds of $1,350,003  based on an independent  third party
     appraisal of the value of the allocated Sub-Stock and the cash contribution
     made to the Plan.  These  proceeds  were  distributed  amongst 1,338 active
     employees.

     Participant  Loans -  Participants  may  borrow a minimum  of $1,000  and a
     maximum  amount  not  to  exceed  the  lesser  of  $50,000  or  50%  of the
     participants'  account  balance from the Plan (only employee  deferred cash
     contributions,  rollover/transfer  contributions  and earnings  thereon are
     used to determine the maximum loan amount that can be taken). Currently, no
     more  than  two  loans  are  allowed  outstanding  at  the  same  time  per
     participant.  General purpose loans are payable over a period not to exceed
     five years,  and bear interest at the prime rate plus 1% (the prime rate at
     the  time  the  loan is  requested)  as  described  in the  Plan  Document.
     Currently,  participants may also amortize a loan for the purchase of their
     primary residence over a fifteen-year  period, which also bears interest at
     the prime rate plus 1%. The loans are secured by the participants' interest
     in the Plan.

     Payment  of  Benefits - Upon  termination  of  service,  a  participant  or
     eligible  beneficiary  whose  account  balance is greater than $1,000,  may
     elect to leave their balance in the Plan,  receive a lump-sum  amount equal
     to the value of the participant's  vested account,  elect to receive annual
     installments  or a partial  distribution,  or roll over their balance to an
     Individual Retirement Account or another qualified plan.


2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Basis of  Accounting  - The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been
     prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
     United States of America.

     Use of Estimates - The  preparation  of financial  statements in conformity
     with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in the United  States of
     America  requires  management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
     the  reported  amounts of assets,  liabilities,  and  changes  therein  and
     disclosure  of  contingent  assets and  liabilities.  Actual  results could
     differ from those estimates.


                                       7



     Risks and Uncertainties - The Plan provides for various investment options.
     The  Plan's  mutual  funds  invest in  various  securities  including  U.S.
     Government  securities,  corporate debt  instruments and corporate  stocks.
     Investment  securities,  in general,  are exposed to various  risks such as
     interest rate,  credit and overall market  volatility.  Due to the level of
     risk  associated  with  certain  investment  securities,  it is  reasonably
     possible that changes in the values of investment  securities will occur in
     the near term and that such changes could materially  affect  participants'
     account balances and the amounts reported in the financial statements.


     Investment  Valuation and Income  Recognition - The Plan's  investments are
     stated at fair value.  Quoted market prices are used to value  investments.
     Shares of mutual funds are valued at quoted closing  market  prices,  which
     represent  the net  asset  value  of  shares  held by the  Plan on the last
     business day of the year.

     Purchases  and sales of  securities  are  recorded on a  trade-date  basis.
     Dividend  income is recorded on the  ex-dividend  date.  Interest income is
     recorded on an accrual basis.

     Participant loans are valued at outstanding loan balances

     Management fees and operating expenses are charged to Plan participants and
     are reflected as a reduction of investment return in the mutual funds. Such
     management fees and operating expenses are deducted from income earned on a
     daily basis.

     Valuation  of  Investments  (Securities  with No  Quoted  Market  Prices) -
     Amounts for securities that have no quoted market price represent estimated
     fair value. Many factors are considered in arriving at that fair value. The
     estimated  fair value of the KeySpan Common Stock Fund is the quoted market
     price of the  Company's  common  stock.  The KeySpan  Common  Stock fund is
     divided into fund units. Each unit represents a portion of ownership in the
     fund and consists  primarily of shares of Company  Common Stock and a small
     cash  balance so that  transactions  can be  processed  daily.  The KeySpan
     Preferred Stock was not publicly  traded,  and was recorded at par value of
     $100  and  paid a 6%  dividend  semi-annually.  Fair  value  of the  common
     collective  trust has been  estimated by Vanguard  based on the  underlying
     assets of the portfolio.

     Administrative  Expenses - Expenses for the  administration of the Plan are
     paid for by  either  the Plan  Sponsor  or the Plan as  stated  in the Plan
     Document.  KeySpan and its  subsidiaries  are allocated for their  expenses
     related to administration of the Plan as well as matching contributions and
     discount on Company Common Stock.

     Payment of  Benefits - Benefits to  participants  are  recorded  when paid.
     There  have been no amounts  accrued  but not yet paid as of  December  31,
     2005.

5.   FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS

     The  Internal   Revenue  Service  has  determined  and  informed  the  Plan
     administrator by a letter dated January 5, 2003, that the Plan is qualified
     and  the  Trust  established  under  the  Plan  is  tax-exempt,  under  the
     appropriate  sections of the Internal  Revenue Code  ("IRC").  The Plan has
     been amended since receiving the determination letter; however, the Company
     and the Plan administrator  believe that the Plan is currently designed and
     being operated in compliance  with the applicable  requirements of the IRC.
     Therefore,  no provision  for income taxes has been  included in the Plan's
     financial statements.

6.   EXEMPT PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS

     Certain  Plan  investments  are  shares  of mutual  funds and a common  and
     collective trust managed by the asset custodian, trustee, and recordkeeper,
     the Vanguard Group, as defined by the Plan and therefore these transactions
     qualify as exempt party-in-interest  transactions. Fees paid for investment
     management services are charged to Plan participants and were included as a
     reduction  of the  return  earned on each  fund.  The  Plan's  transactions
     involving  Company  Common Stock are also  party-in-interest  transactions.
     Certain employees and officers of the Company, who may also be participants
     in the Plan, perform administrative  services to the Plan at no cost to the
     Plan.  These  party-in-interest  transactions  are  not  deemed  prohibited
     because they are covered by statutory and  administrative  exemptions  from
     the Code and the rules and prohibited transactions of ERISA.


                                       10



     At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Plan held 3,679,022 and 3,256,252 units,
     respectively, of KeySpan Common Stock, the sponsoring employer, with a cost
     basis of $122,548,236 and $105,037,656, respectively. During the year ended
     December 31, 2005, the Plan recorded dividend income of $6,178,430.

7.   PLAN TERMINATION

     Although  the  Company  has  not  expressed  any  intent  to do so,  it may
     terminate  the Plan at any  time.  In the  event of Plan  termination,  the
     accounts  of all  participants  affected  shall  become  fully  vested  and
     non-forfeitable.  Assets remaining in the trust fund will be distributed to
     the  participants  and  beneficiaries  in  proportion  to their  respective
     account balances.


8.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On September 22, 2005,  KeySpan Board of Directors approved an amendment to
     the Plan,  effective  January  1,  2006,  allowing  participants  to invest
     Company  match into any of the funds  available in the Plan.  Prior to this
     amendment, company match was initially invested in the KeySpan Common Stock
     Fund.

     Effective January 1, 2006, the Plan adopted all relevant  provisions of the
     IRS regulations  applicable for 401(k) plans that were amended and restated
     effective  December 29, 2004. This restatement is generally applies for the
     plan year commencing January 1, 2006.

     On February 25, 2006,  KeySpan entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
     (the "Merger Agreement"),  with National Grid PLC, a public limited company
     incorporated  under the laws of England and Wales  ("Parent")  and National
     Grid USA, Inc., a New York  Corporation  ("Merger Sub"),  pursuant to which
     Merger Sub will merge with and into  KeySpan (the  "Merger"),  with KeySpan
     continuing as the surviving company.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,  at
     the effective time of the Merger,  each outstanding  share of common stock,
     par value  $0.01 per share of KeySpan  (the  "Shares"),  other than  shares
     owned by KeySpan,  shall be canceled and shall be converted  into the right
     to receive $42.00 in cash, without interest.

     Consummation  of the  Merger is  subject  to  various  closing  conditions,
     including  but not  limited  to the  satisfaction  or waiver of  conditions
     regarding the receipt of requisite regulatory approvals and the adoption of
     the  Merger  Agreement  by the  stockholders  of  KeySpan  and the  Parent.
     Assuming  receipt or waiver of the foregoing,  it is currently  anticipated
     that the Merger will be  consummated in early 2007.  However,  no assurance
     can be given that the Merger will occur, or, the timing of its completion.
