Ladies and Gentlemen:

         The certification set forth below is being submitted to the Securities
and Exchange Commission solely for the purpose of complying with Section 1350
of Chapter 63 of Title 18 of the United States Code. This certification is not
to be deemed to be filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
does not constitute a part of the Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Report")
accompanying this letter.

         Richard J. Pershing, the Chief Executive Officer and J. William
Holden, the Chief Financial Officer of Mirant Mid-Atlantic, LLC (the
"Company"), each certifies that, subject to the qualification noted below, to
the best of my knowledge:

         1.       such Report fully complies with the requirements of Section
                  13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and

         2.       the information contained in the Report fairly presents, in
                  all material respects, the financial condition and results of
                  operation of the Company.

         This certificate is qualified by the fact that the Report was not
filed within 90 days after the end of the Company's fiscal year as required by
General Instruction A to Form 10-K.
