Illinois Post-2006 Update - Competition Benefiting IL Customers Since the onset of customer choice in 1997, more than 70% of ComEd's biggest customers have chosen alternatives to bundled rates, some saving up to 15% Residential customers saved 20% with a rate reduction, and even more considering a 10-year rate freeze when the CPI increased 20% (current rates lowest since early 1990's) Since 1998, outage frequency is down 44%, duration is down 53% Nuclear capacity factors have increased from 49% to 93% 9,000 megawatts of new competitive power supply brought on line (and not in rate base) |

Fourth annual reverse auction in NJ completed 2/16/05 While the wholesale price of energy increased by 18% over last year's prices, the staggered terms of the auction contracts will result in customers of NJ's largest utility (PSE&G) seeing an annual increase to total bills of 2.8% Only 1/3 of the energy component in the overall bill is put out to bid annually The energy component is approximately half of the overall bill (with the delivery and transmission components comprising the remaining half) Therefore, in any given year, 1/3 of about 50% (or about 1/6) of the total electric bill is out for bid 25 suppliers participated in the reverse auction with 7 winning bidders BGS Auction Summary |

Illinois Procurement Filing Overview Annual "reverse auction" to procure supply for customers post 2006 Staggered 1, 3 and 5 year contracts for <1 MW customers Staggering creates rate stability for customers 100% of load bid out in year 1; 40% each year thereafter Recent New Jersey BGS auction resulted in wholesale price increase of 18% over prior year due to higher fuel prices, but staggering process reduced impact on customers' electric bills to a 2.8% increase NJ ratepayer advocate: "We don't like any increases, but considering what is going on in the market, it is not bad. We were expecting worse." Large customers to be offered annual or hourly price -- depending on whether or not they are subject to competitive declaration 50% load cap for any single supplier Requires mark-to-market collateral posting by suppliers Tariff translates wholesale auction into retail rates by customer class Auction managed by an independent third party and overseen by ICC |

ComEd Goodwill Impairment assessment performed at least annually (4th quarter) to determine if estimated fair value (FV) of ComEd supports recorded goodwill Assessment uses discounted cash flow analysis to estimate FV Dependent on variables including interest rates, utility sector market performance, market power prices, post-2006 rate/regulatory structures, operating and cap ex requirements Assessment performed in two steps: Step 1: Compare FV of ComEd to its book value (BV) including goodwill - if FV exceeds BV, no impairment; if not, then go to Step 2 Step 2: Compare FV of goodwill to BV of goodwill - if FV exceeds BV, no impairment; if not, an impairment loss is reported as reduction to goodwill and charged to operating expense Goodwill impairment has no cash flow impact No impairment recorded at ComEd to date, but reasonable possibility goodwill will be impaired going forward Any future impairment charges at ComEd will likely be offset in Exelon's consolidated results Impairment test at Exelon level considers cash flows of entire EED segment, including both ComEd and PECO; PECO has no goodwill and its estimated FV substantially exceeded its BV under the 2004 test Goodwill impairment has no impact on ComEd's ROE rate cap during the transition period through 2006 Impact on ComEd distribution rate case: Goodwill not included in rate base (no return of goodwill) A goodwill impairment would decrease the common equity included in the determination of the overall weighted cost of capital for ratemaking purposes $1.2 billion of accelerated ComEd debt retirements in 2004 ensures ComEd's equity ratio will be sufficient to justify a request for an equity ratio of at least 50% in ComEd's distribution rate case, even assuming a write-off of 50% of existing goodwill |

2005 Earnings Guidance Exelon's adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for 2005 are expected to be in the range of $2.90 to $3.10 per share. Exelon's outlook for adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings excludes income resulting from investments in synthetic fuel-producing facilities, the financial impact of the company's investment in Sithe and merger-related costs. Giving consideration to these factors, Exelon estimates 2005 GAAP earnings will fall in the range of $2.95 to $3.15 per share. This estimate does not include any impact of future changes to GAAP. |
