12 Q3 2015 Earnings Release Slides ExGen Disclosures (1) Expected generation is the volume of energy that best represents our commodity position in energy markets from owned or contracted for capacity based upon a simulated dispatch model that makes assumptions regarding future market conditions, which are calibrated to market quotes for power, fuel, load following products, and options. Expected generation assumes 14 refueling outages in 2015, 12 in 2016, and 15 in 2017 at Exelon-operated nuclear plants, and Salem. Expected generation assumes capacity factors of 93.5%, 94.1% and 93.3% in 2015 , 2016 and 2017 respectively at Exelon-operated nuclear plants, at ownership. These estimates of expected generation in 2016 and 2017 do not represent guidance or a forecast of future results as Exelon has not completed its planning or optimization processes for those years. (2) Excludes EDF’s equity ownership share of CENG Joint Venture. (3) Percent of expected generation hedged is the amount of equivalent sales divided by expected generation. Includes all hedging products, such as wholesale and retail sales of power, options and swaps. (4) Effective realized energy price is representative of an all-in hedged price, on a per MWh basis, at which expected generation has been hedged. It is developed by considering the energy revenues and costs associated with our hedges and by considering the fossil fuel that has been purchased to lock in margin. It excludes uranium costs and RPM capacity revenue, but includes the mark-to-market value of capacity contracted at prices other than RPM clearing prices including our load obligations. It can be compared with the reference prices used to calculate open gross margin in order to determine the mark-to-market value of Exelon Generation's energy hedges.

19 Q3 2015 Earnings Release Slides ComEd April 2015 Distribution Formula Rate The 2015 distribution formula rate filing establishes the net revenue requirement used to set the rates that will take effect in January 2016 after the Illinois Commerce Commission's (ICC’s) review. There are two components to the annual distribution formula rate filing: • Filing Year: Based on prior year costs (2014) and current year (2015) projected plant additions. • Annual Reconciliation: For the prior calendar year (2014), this amount reconciles the revenue requirement reflected in rates during the prior year (2014) in effect to the actual costs for that year. The annual reconciliation impacts cash flow in the following year (2016) but the earnings impact has been recorded in the prior year (2014) as a regulatory asset. Given the retroactive ratemaking provision in the Energy Infrastructure Modernization Act (EIMA) legislation, ComEd net income during the year will be based on actual costs with a regulatory asset/liability recorded to reflect any under/over recovery reflected in rates. Revenue Requirement in rate filings impacts cash flow. Revenue Requirement Decrease Rate Base (1) (1) Docket # 15-0287 Filing Year 2014 Calendar Year Actual Costs and 2015 Projected Net Plant Additions are used to set the rates for calendar year 2016. Rates currently in effect (docket 14-0312) for calendar year 2015 were based on 2013 actual costs and 2014 projected net plant additions Reconciliation Year Reconciles Revenue Requirement reflected in rates during 2014 to 2014 Actual Costs Incurred. Revenue requirement for 2014 is based on docket 13-0318 (2012 actual costs and 2013 projected net plant additions) approved in December 2013 and reflects the impacts of PA 98-0015 (SB9) Common Equity Ratio ~ 46% for both the filing and reconciliation year ROE 9.14% for the filing year (2014 30-yr Treasury Yield of 3.34% + 580 basis point risk premium) and 9.09% for the reconciliation year (2014 30-yr Treasury Yield of 3.34% + 580 basis point risk premium – 5 basis points performance metrics penalty). For 2015 and 2016, the actual allowed ROE reflected in net income will ultimately be based on the average of the 30-year Treasury Yield during the respective years plus 580 basis point spread, absent any metric penalties Requested Rate of Return ~ 7% for both the filing and reconciliation years $8,277 million– Filing year (represents projected year-end rate base using 2014 actual plus 2015 projected capital additions). 2015 and 2016 earnings will reflect 2015 and 2016 year-end rate base respectively. $7,082 million - Reconciliation year (represents year-end rate base for 2014) $55M decrease ($145M decrease due to the 2014 reconciliation offset by a $90M increase related to the filing year). The 2014 reconciliation impact on net income was recorded in 2014 as a regulatory asset. Timeline • 04/15/15 Filing Date • 240 Day Proceeding ��� ICC order expected to be issued by December 11, 2015 (1) Amounts represent ComEd’s position filed in surrebuttal testimony on August 20, 2015.

21 Q3 2015 Earnings Release Slides PECO Electric LTIIP - System 2020 • PECO filed its Electric Long Term Infrastructure Improvement Plan (“LTIIP”) along with its associated recovery mechanism the Distribution System Improvement Charge (“DSIC”) on March 27, 2015 (with Electric Distribution Rate Case) o LTIIP includes $275 million in incremental capital spending from 2016-2020 focusing on the following areas: Cable Replacement Storm Hardening Programs Substation replacement and upgrades o DSIC mechanism will allow recovery of eligible LTIIP spend between rate cases if the electric distribution ROE falls below the DSIC ROE established by PaPUC. The current Electric DSIC ROE is 10.0%. o Approved on 10/22/15 • PECO also proposed the concept of constructing one or more pilot microgrid projects as part of a future LTIIP update ($50-$100M). The objective is to evaluate and test emerging microgrid technologies that could enhance reliability and resiliency by replacing obsolete infrastructure as an alternative to traditional solutions. |
