Safe Harbor Statement/Regulation G Information Some of the statements contained in today’s presentation with respect to Pepco Holdings, Pepco, Delmarva Power and Atlantic C ity Electric, including each of their respective subsidiaries, are forward - looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. federal securitie s laws and are subject to the safe harbor created thereby under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements inclu de declarations regarding the intents, beliefs and current expectations of one or more of PHI, Pepco, DPL or ACE (each, a Reporting Company) or their subsidiaries. In some cases you can identify forward - looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should, ” “could,” “expects,” “intends,” “assumes,” “seeks to,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “projects,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potent ial ,” “future,” “goal,” “objective,” or “continue”, the negative or other variations of such terms, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of s tra tegy that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward - looking statements involve estimates, assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause one or more Reporting Companies’ or their subsidiaries’ actual results, levels of activity, performance or ach iev ements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such fo rwa rd - looking statements. Therefore, forward - looking statements are not guarantees or assurances of future performance, and actual results cou ld differ materially from those indicated by the forward - looking statements. These forward - looking statements are qualified in their enti rety by, and should be read together with, the risk factors included in the “Risk Factors” section and other statements in each Reporting Com pany’s annual report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed on February 28, 2014 and in other Securities and Exchange Commiss ion (SEC) filings, and investors should refer to these risk factor sections and such other statements. All such factors are diff icu lt to predict, contain uncertainties, are beyond each Reporting Company’s or its subsidiaries’ control and may cause actual results to differ materi all y from those contained in the forward - looking statements. Any forward - looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation and none of the Reporting Companies undertakes any obligation to update any forward - looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, an d i t is not possible for a Reporting Company to predict all such factors. Furthermore, it may not be possible to assess the impact of an y s uch factor on such Reporting Company’s or its subsidiaries’ business (viewed independently or together with the business or businesses of some or all of the other Reporting Companies or their subsidiaries) or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward - looking statement. Any specific factors that may be provided should not be constr ued as exhaustive. PHI routinely makes available important information with respect to each Reporting Company, including copies of each Reportin g C ompany’s annual, quarterly and current reports filed with or furnished to the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on PHI’s web site at http://www.pepcoholdings.com/investors. PHI recognizes its website as a key channel of distribution to reach public investor s a nd as a means of disclosing material non - public information to comply with each Reporting Company’s disclosure obligations under SEC Regulatio n FD. PHI discloses net income from continuing operations and related per share data (both as historical information and earnings g uid ance) excluding certain items (non - GAAP financial information) because management believes that these items are not representative of PHI’s ongo ing business operations. Management uses this information, and believes that such information is useful to investors, in evaluating PHI’s per iod - over - period performance. The inclusion of this disclosure is intended to complement, and should not be considered as an alternative to, P HI’ s reported net income from continuing operations and related per share data in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in t he United States (GAAP).

Smart Grid – Next Steps for Operations ▪ Processing outage and restore notifications from smart meters (in use) • Continue to realize operational savings from avoided “truck rolls” ▪ Conservation Voltage Reduction (under way) • Using smart meter data, we can lower voltage without violating operating standards • Net effect to customers - lower energy consumption and total cost ▪ High temperature at the meter (field trial under way) • Dispatch crews as a precaution when the temperature exceeds threshold ▪ Measuring transformer loading (field trial under way) • Anticipate when a distribution transformer approaches its operating limits • Replace a transformer as a “planned” outage, not an “unplanned” outage ▪ Power Quality Analysis • Measuring and correcting voltage irregularities customers may be experiencing ▪ Theft Analysis • Identify potential energy theft through consumption analysis coupled with digital alarms sent by the meter 16

Artificial Island Transmission Project ▪ On April 29 th , PJM issued a Request for Proposals that would mitigate reliability and operational performance issues associated with the nuclear units at Artificial Island (near Salem, New Jersey) ▪ PHI submitted a joint proposal with Exelon to extend a transmission line from Artificial Island to Peach Bottom substation ($ 475M project; 60 month construction schedule) ▪ The PHI/Exelon bid was one of approximately 26 proposals received by PJM. PJM has narrowed the list to 230kV and 500kV projects that stop at sites along the Delmarva peninsula (4 – 230kV and 5 – 500kV proposals) ▪ The PHI/Exelon proposal provided several variations that could be considered by PJM including a line that stopped at the Red Lion substation on the peninsula. This portion of our proposal is still under consideration ▪ We expect a decision from PJM late in the third quarter of 2014 ▪ Project estimate (PHI portion): $150M - $ 200M Note: See Safe Harbor Statement at the beginning of today’s presentations. 33
