RE: Comptroller Appointment

The purpose of this communication is to inform you that Mayor Donchess and I have appointed
Rosemarie Evans to the position of Comptroller. Rose will report to me. By way of background, Rose
joined the City of Nashua in 2007 as the Manager of Accounting/Compliance. In 2016, she was
promoted to the position of Senior Manager of Accounting & Financial Reporting. Prior to her arrival to
Nashua, Rose was the Finance Director for the Town of Milford, NH from 2000 to 2007.

During her tenure with the City of Nashua, Rose has gained a deep and thorough knowledge of Municipal
Fund Accounting and has created and published numerous financial reports in accordance with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles and Government Accounting Standards Board pronouncements. She
also played the lead role the implementation of the City of Nashua’s Lawson Financial Software System.

From an external reporting perspective, Rose has managed the annual independent audit which has
resulted in the attainment of an “unmodified opinion” as to the fair presentation of the City of Nashua’s
financial statements each year. In addition, her efforts have resulted in the City’s Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report (“CAFR”) being awarded the prestigious Government Accounting Officers
Association’s Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for each year as well.

Mayor Donchess and I are pleased to announce this appointment and wish Rose much success in her new
position.
