/1/All of the amounts shown under "Bonus--Stock-Based" and "LTIP Payouts--
Stock-Based" were either paid in shares of Unicom common stock or were
deferred and are deemed to be invested in shares of Unicom's common stock,
and thus fully "at risk" until the end of the deferral period. Deferred
amounts are noted with an asterisk.
/2/Excludes perquisites and other benefits, unless the aggregate amount of such
compensation is at least $50,000. For 2000, includes $44,533 and $39,906
paid to Mr. Rowe and Mr. Kingsley, respectively, for the payment of FICA
taxes and $52,445 and $39,941 paid to Mr. Rowe and Mr. Kingsley,
respectively, for the payment of other taxes.
/3/Grants of options to acquire shares of Unicom common stock made to Mr. Rowe,
Mr. Kingsley and Ms. Strobel prior to the merger have been adjusted to
reflect the substitution of options to acquire shares of Exelon common stock
in accordance with the merger agreement.
/4/Elected to defer 30% of overall payout (50% cash, 20% stock, 30% SBDP)
/5/Mr. McLean commenced employment on September 22, 1999.
OPTION GRANTS IN 2000
The "grant date present values" indicated in the option grant table below
are an estimate based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Although
executives risk forfeiting these options in some circumstances, these risks are
not factored into the calculated values. The actual value of these options will
be determined by the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on the
date that the options are exercised. There is no certainty that the actual value
realized will be at or near the value estimated by the Black-Scholes option
pricing model. The Unicom grants, which expire on January 24, 2010, were
adjusted to reflect the substitution of Exelon shares for Unicom shares in
accordance with the merger agreement. The original strike price was $37.063. The
assumptions used for the Black-Scholes models are as follows:

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS--AWARDS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR
Information with respect to Messrs. McNeill, Rowe, Kingsley, Egan and
McLean and Ms. Strobel is presented under ITEM 11. Executive
Compensation--ComEd--Executive Compensation--Long-Term Incentive Plans--Awards
in Last Fiscal Year below and is incorporated herein by this reference. Messrs.
Rainey and Lawrence were not officers of Unicom, and were accordingly not
eligible for awards under the plan described under ITEM 11. Executive
Compensation--ComEd--Executive Compensation--Long-Term Incentive Plans--Awards
in Last Fiscal Year below.
RETIREMENT PLANS
The following tables show the estimated annual retirement benefits payable
on a straight-life annuity basis to participating employees, including officers,
in the earnings and year of service classes indicated, under PECO's and Unicom's
(by its subsidiary, ComEd) non-contributory retirement plans. The amounts shown
in the table are not subject to any deduction for Social Security or other
offset amounts.
Covered compensation includes salary and bonus which is disclosed in the
Summary Compensation Table above for the named executive officers. The
calculation of retirement benefits under the plans is based upon average
earnings for the highest consecutive five-year period under the PECO Energy
Company Service Annuity Plan and for the highest four-year period under the
ComEd Service Annuity System.
The Internal Revenue Code limits the annual benefits that can be paid from
a tax-qualified retirement plan to $170,000 as of January 1, 2001. As permitted
by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, PECO Energy and ComEd
sponsored supplemental plans which allow the payment out of general funds of
PECO Energy or ComEd, as applicable, any benefits calculated under provisions of
the applicable retirement plan which may be above these limits. Exelon assumed
sponsorship of the non-contributory retirement plans and the supplemental plans.

The approximate number of years of credited service under ComEd's pension
programs for the persons named in the Summary Compensation Table are as follows:
John W. Rowe, 23 years; Oliver D. Kingsley, 23 years, and Pamela B. Strobel, 8
years.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
Employment Agreement with John W. Rowe
Exelon entered into an amended employment agreement with Mr. Rowe under
which Mr. Rowe will serve as:
. co-chief executive officer and president of Exelon, chairman of the
executive committee of the Exelon board of directors and a member of
the Exelon board of directors during the first half of the transition
period provided for in Exelon's Bylaws, which is defined as the period
from the effective time of the merger forming Exelon (October 20,
2000) until December 31, 2003,
. co-chief executive officer of Exelon, chairman of the Exelon board of
directors and a member of the Exelon board of directors during the
second half of the transition period, and
. chief executive officer of Exelon, chairman of the Exelon board of
directors and a member of the Exelon board of directors after the
transition period.
Mr. Rowe will succeed to the position of sole chief executive officer of
Exelon or chairman of the Exelon board of directors if:
. prior to the end of the transition period, Mr. McNeill should cease to
be a co-chief executive officer of Exelon or the chairman of the
Exelon board of directors, and
. Mr. Rowe is still a co-chief executive officer of Exelon at that time.
Mr. Rowe will receive an annual base salary of:
. at least $900,000 through March 15, 2001, but not less than his base
salary immediately prior to the completion of the merger ($975,000),
or
. Mr. McNeill's base salary, whichever is higher.
After March 15, 2001, Mr. Rowe's base salary will be determined by Exelon's
compensation committee. Mr. Rowe will be eligible to participate in annual
incentive award programs, long-term incentive plans and stock option plans on
the same basis as other senior executives of Exelon. The agreement provided that
a grant of options would be considered at the time the merger was completed. Mr.
Rowe is entitled to participate in all savings, deferred compensation,
retirement and other employee benefit plans generally available to other senior
executives of Exelon. During the transition period, Mr. Rowe's base salary and
participation in the plans and awards described in this paragraph will be on a
basis that is not less than that of Mr. McNeill's or on which Mr. McNeill
participates.
Under his amended employment agreement, Mr. Rowe will receive a special
supplemental executive retirement plan, or SERP, benefit if:
. he terminates due to normal retirement, early retirement, termination
without cause, termination for good reason, death or disability, or
. he voluntarily terminates on or after the first anniversary of the
completion of the merger for any other reason.
The term "good reason" includes the failure to appoint Mr. Rowe to the
management and Exelon board of director positions described above. The special
SERP benefit will equal the SERP benefit that Mr. Rowe would have received:
. if he had attained age 60 (or his actual age, if greater), and
. if he had earned 20 years of service on March 16, 1998 and one
additional year of service on each anniversary after that date and
prior to termination.
Except as provided in the next paragraph, if Exelon terminates Mr. Rowe's
employment for reasons other than cause, death or disability or if he should
terminate employment for good reason on or after December 31, 2004 and not
within 24 months following a change in control of Exelon, he would be entitled
to the following benefits:
. a prorated annual incentive award for the year in which termination
occurs,
. severance payments equal to his base salary for two years after
termination, and for each year during such period an amount equal to
the average of the annual incentive awards paid to him with respect to
the three years preceding the year of termination or, if greater, his
annual incentive award for the year before termination,
. for the two-year period, continuation of his life, disability,
accident, health and other welfare benefits, plus the retirement
benefits described above and post-retirement health care coverage,
. all of his exercisable options would remain exercisable until the
applicable option expiration date,
. unvested options would continue to become exercisable during the two-
year continuation period and thereafter remain exercisable until the
applicable option expiration date, and
. all compensation earned through the date of termination and coverage
and benefits under all benefit plans to which he is entitled.
Mr. Rowe will receive the termination benefits described in "Change in
Control and Severance Arrangements" below, rather than the benefits described in
the previous paragraph, if Exelon terminates Mr. Rowe without cause or he
terminates with good reason and
. the termination occurs within 24 months after a change in control of
Exelon, or
. the termination occurs at any other time prior to the earlier of
normal retirement or December 31, 2004, or
. the termination occurs at any other time on or after the completion of
the merger and before normal retirement because of the failure to
appoint or elect Mr. Rowe to the management or Exelon board of
director positions described above.
Employment Arrangement with Corbin A. McNeill, Jr.
Although Exelon has not entered into an employment agreement with Mr.
McNeill, the merger agreement provided that at any time during the transition
period when Messrs. McNeill and Rowe are co-chief executive officers, each of
them will receive the same salary, bonus and other compensation (including
option grants and other incentive awards and all other forms of compensation)
and enjoy the same other benefits and the same employment security arrangements
as the other.
Employment Agreement with Oliver D. Kingsley, Jr.
ComEd entered into an employment agreement with Oliver D. Kingsley, Jr.
pursuant to which he became Executive Vice President and President and Chief
Nuclear Officer--Nuclear Generation Group, effective November 1, 1997. The
agreement provides for a guaranteed increase in annual base salary of at least
4% per year, beginning in 1999.
Mr. Kingsley received an option to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock
with an option price equal to the fair market value of the common stock as of
November 1, 1997. Such options became exercisable in equal installments on
November 1 of 1998, 1999 and 2000, and expire on October 31, 2007. Mr. Kingsley
also received a grant of 20,000 shares of restricted stock that vested in equal
installments on November 1 of 1998, 1999 and 2000.
The employment agreement with Mr. Kingsley provides that Mr. Kingsley will
participate in Unicom's Annual Incentive Award Program and will receive an
annual incentive award for 1998 and 1999 at least equal to the target award of
$213,750.
Mr. Kingsley participates in the Unicom Long-Term Performance Unit Award
Program, and any award payable under such Program with respect to the three-
year performance periods ending on December 31, 1997, 1998, or 1999 will be made
as though he had participated in the Program throughout such performance periods
(except in the case of a termination of employment). In addition, Mr. Kingsley
received $375,000 as an inducement to enter into the employment agreement, and
an annual living cost allowance equal to $75,000 (increased by the amount of
applicable taxes on such amount as so increased) for the first three years of
the agreement term.
Mr. Kingsley's employment agreement provides for a retirement benefit equal
to the amount that would have been payable under the Service Annuity System
(plus amounts payable under the ComEd Supplemental Management Retirement Plan)
for an employee who retires at age 60 calculated based on the assumption that
Mr. Kingsley had completed 15 years of credited service beginning with the third
year of his employment and that such credited service increased by five years
during each of the next two years, in addition to his actual years of credited
service after five years of employment.
The employment agreement with Mr. Kingsley provides for a lump sum
severance payment to Mr. Kingsley if he should be terminated without cause equal
to two times his base salary at the time of such termination, and a continuation
of health and life insurance benefits for two years after the date of
termination, plus retirement benefits (calculated as though he had completed at
least 15 years of credited service if such termination occurs during the first
two years of employment) and retire health care coverage. In addition, any
unvested portion of the restricted stock granted under the agreement will
immediately become fully vested and nonforfeitable. These benefits have been
incorporated into a change in control severance agreement that became effective
on October 20, 2000. See "Change in Control Severance Agreements" below.
Mr. Kingsley agreed not to use for his own benefit or disclose any
confidential information of Unicom or ComEd during or after the term of his
employment, and not to solicit any employee of ComEd for one year after the term
of his employment with ComEd.
Change in Control Severance Arrangements
PECO Energy and Unicom entered into change in control agreements with
certain senior executives which became effective upon the completion of the
merger. The agreements cover employment through October 20, 2002 and generally
protect executives' positions and compensation levels through that date. A
material adverse change in such compensation or position is included in the
definition of "good reason" for purposes of the agreements. If an executives
resigns for good reason before October 20, 2001 or if the executive's employment
is terminated by the company other than for cause, severance pay and benefits
become payable.
The severance payments and benefits provided under the agreements include:
. Severance payments equal to three multiplied by the sum of:
. the employee's annual base salary, plus
. an amount equal to the average of the annual incentive awards paid to
the employee for the two years preceding the year of termination or,
if greater, the target award under the annual incentive award program
in which the employee participates for the year in which termination
occurs.
. A prorated annual incentive award for the year in which termination
occurs.
. Continuation of life, disability, accident, health and other welfare
benefit coverage for three years and thereafter, if applicable,
retiree coverage is available.
. Outplacement services.
. All of a terminated employee's exercisable options remain exercisable
until the applicable option expiration date, and all unvested options
become fully exercisable and remain so until the applicable option
expiration date.
. Any deferred stock units, restricted stock, or restricted share units
become fully vested and any other long-term incentive plan award which
is unvested would vest.
. For purposes of determining benefits under the supplemental retirement
plan or arrangement, in which the employee participates, the employee
will be credited with three additional years of credited service, age
and compensation.
. For purposes of determining eligibility for retiree welfare benefits,
the employee will be deemed to have three additional years of service
and age.
. All compensation earned through the date of termination as well as all
coverage and benefits under all benefit plans to which the employee is
entitled.
Pursuant to the terms of offers of employment or employment agreements,
certain employees are also entitled to additional service credits for purposes
of retiree health care eligibility and for determining benefits under the
supplemental retirement plan or arrangement in which they participate.
In connection with the severance benefits described above, each executive
who was an employee of PECO Energy prior to the merger is subject to a non-
compete agreement for 24 months from the applicable termination date. Although a
participating employee does not have a duty to mitigate the amounts due from the
company, continued welfare benefit coverage would be offset during the
applicable continuation period by comparable coverage provided under welfare
plans of another employer.
Employees who are senior vice-presidents will receive an additional payment
to cover excise taxes imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code on
"excess parachute payments" or under similar state or local law if the after-tax
amount of payments and benefits subject to these taxes exceeds 110% of the "safe
harbor" amount that would not subject the employee to these excise taxes. If the
after-tax amount, however, is less than 110% of the safe harbor amount, payments
and benefits subject to these taxes would be reduced or eliminated to equal the
safe harbor amount. Benefits payable to other employees subject to the excise
taxes imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code will be reduced to
the employees's safe harbor amount.

ComEd
Board Compensation
Since October 20, 2000, the directors of ComEd have consisted solely of
employees of ComEd or its affiliates. These individuals receive no additional
compensation in respect of their service as directors other than their normal
salary. Prior to the merger of Unicom and PECO on October 20, 2000, outside
directors of ComEd were compensated according to the terms and provisions of the
Unicom Corporation 1996 Directors' Fee Plan. This plan provided for an annual
retainer of $36,200 which was payable in shares of Unicom stock. Directors
received $1,500 for each board and committee meeting they attended and an
additional annual retainer of $2,500 for each committee that they chaired.
Directors who were members of the Nuclear Oversight Committee also received and
additional $5,000 annual retainer. The annual retainers and meeting fees could
be deferred at the election of the director. In the event that directors of
ComEd also served as directors of Unicom, or chaired corresponding committees of
Unicom, these fees as described above were divided in half so that in no event
would a director receive duplicate fees, or fees in excess of the amounts stated
above. Directors who were employees of either ComEd or Unicom received no
additional compensation other than their normal salary.

Long-term performance unit awards were granted under the Unicom Corporation
Long-Term Incentive Plan. Mr. McNeill, Mr. Egan, and Mr. McLean were not
officers of Unicom Corporation, and were accordingly not eligible for awards
under this plan. The awards are based on a three-year performance period. For
the awards described in the table, the number of units initially awarded to a
participant is determined by dividing a percentage of base salary by $35,432.
The applicable percentages for the individuals shown in the table are: 50% for
Mr. Rowe; 45% for Mr. Kingsley; 40% for Ms. Strobel; 45% for Mr. Elbert; and 35%
for Mr. Helwig. Payouts were to be based on achievement of a cumulative earnings
per share goal over the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2002.
The dollar value of a payout would be determined by multiplying (a) the number
of units applicable by (b) the average closing price of Unicom common stock as
reported in the Wall Street Journal as New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transactions during the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2002 by (c) the
level of performance achieved. The three-year period was pro-rated through
September 30, 2000 due to the merger, and the amounts paid out are included in
the column headed "Long-Term Compensation--Payouts" in the Summary Compensation
Table.
