Exelon Generation Hedging Disclosures
(As disclosed on July 22, 2010) |

Important Information
The following slides are intended to provide additional information regarding the hedging
program at Exelon Generation and to serve as an aid for the purposes of modeling Exelon
Generations gross margin (operating revenues less purchased power and fuel expense). The
information on the following slides is not intended to represent earnings guidance or a forecast
of future events. In fact, many of the factors that ultimately will determine Exelon
Generations actual gross margin are based upon highly variable market factors outside of
our control. The information on the following slides is as of June 30, 2010. We
update this information on a quarterly basis.
Certain information on the following slides is based upon an internal simulation model that
incorporates assumptions regarding future market conditions, including power and commodity
prices, heat rates, and demand conditions, in addition to operating performance and dispatch
characteristics of our generating fleet. Our simulation model and the assumptions therein are
subject to change. For example, actual market conditions and the dispatch profile of our
generation fleet in future periods will likely differ and may differ significantly
from the assumptions underlying the simulation results included in the slides. In addition,
the forward- looking information included in the following slides will likely change over
time due to continued refinement of our simulation model and changes in our views on future
market conditions. |
Portfolio Management Objective
Align Hedging Activities with Financial Commitments
Power Team utilizes several product types
and channels to market
Wholesale and retail sales
Block products
Load-following products
and load auctions
Put/call options
Exelons hedging program is designed to
protect the long-term value of our
generating fleet and maintain an
investment-grade balance sheet
Hedge enough commodity risk to meet future cash
requirements if prices drop
Consider: financing policy (credit rating objectives,
capital structure, liquidity); spending (capital and
O&M); shareholder value return policy
Consider market, credit, operational risk
Approach to managing volatility
Increase hedging as delivery approaches
Have enough supply to meet peak load
Purchase fossil fuels as power is sold
Choose hedging products based on generation
portfolio
sell what we own
Heat rate options
Fuel products

Participation in larger procurement events, such as utility auctions, and some
flexibility in the timing of hedging may mean the hedge program is not

Gross margin is defined as operating revenues less fuel expense and purchased power
expense, excluding the impact of decommissioning and other incidental revenues. Open
gross margin is estimated based upon an internal model that is developed by
dispatching our expected generation to current market power and fossil fuel prices. Open gross margin
assumes

than
fixed
assumptions

Open

margin
contains assumptions for other gross margin line items such as various ISO bill and
ancillary revenues and costs and PPA capacity revenues and payments. The estimation of open
gross margin incorporates management discretion and modeling assumptions that are
subject to change. (3)

Generation Profile
(1)
Expected generation represents the amount of energy estimated to be generated or purchased through
owned or contracted for capacity. Expected generation is 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 10 refueling outages in 2010 and 11 refueling outages
in 2011 and 2012 at Exelon-operated nuclear plants and Salem. Expected generation
assumes capacity factors of 94.1%, 93.2% and 92.9% in 2010, 2011 and 2012 at Exelon-operated nuclear plants. These estimates of expected
generation in 2011 and 2012 do not represent guidance or a forecast of future results as Exelon has
not completed its planning or optimization processes for those years. (2)
Percent of expected generation hedged is the amount of equivalent sales divided by the expected
generation. Includes all hedging products, such as wholesale and retail sales of power,
options, and swaps. Uses expected value on options. Reflects decision to permanently retire Cromby Station and Eddystone Units 1&2 as of May 31, 2011.
Current RMR discussions do not impact metrics presented in the hedging disclosure.
(3)
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.

Exelon Generation Gross Margin Sensitivities
(with Existing Hedges)
(1)
Based on June 30, 2010 market conditions and hedged position. Gas price sensitivities are based on an
assumed gas-power relationship derived from an internal model that is updated
periodically. Power prices sensitivities are derived by adjusting the power price assumption while keeping all other prices inputs constant. Due
to correlation of the various assumptions, the hedged gross margin impact calculated by aggregating
individual sensitivities may not be equal to the hedged gross margin impact calculated when
correlations between the various assumptions are also considered. |

Represents an approximate range of expected gross margin, taking into account hedges in place, between
the 5th and 95th percent confidence levels assuming all unhedged supply is sold into the spot
market. Approximate gross margin ranges are based upon an internal simulation model and are subject to change based upon market
inputs, future transactions and potential modeling changes. These ranges of approximate gross margin
in 2011 and 2012 do not represent earnings guidance or a forecast of future results as Exelon
has not completed its planning or optimization processes for those years. The price distributions that generate this range are calibrated to market
quotes for power, fuel, load following products, and options as of June 30, 2010.

Acquisition further enhances Exelons strong environmental leadership and
provides future opportunities for incremental development
