A series of Q&As concerning the proposed merger

February 8, 2005

PLEASE PRINT AND POST FOR EMPLOYEES WITHOUT ACCESS TO E-MAIL

Corporate communications and human resources continue to work together to gather employees’ questions concerning the planned merger between PSEG and Exelon. We will attempt to respond in a timely fashion.  We recognize that information helps ease uncertainties about change. However, please realize that some questions may not have answers until later in the transition period. 

Meanwhile, if you have a question, you can submit it by e-mail to mergerquestions@pseg.com.


Today’s Merger Q&A relates to the regulatory filings made last Friday, Feb. 4, 2005:

Q. The company has proposed a detailed plan that calls for the divestiture of some assets and long-term sales associated with others. Why is this necessary?

A. The regulatory agencies (FERC, NJBPU, PAPUC, Illinois Commerce Commission) will want to ensure that the new company – Exelon Electric & Gas – does not have market power in any relevant market. Our regulatory team, working with business experts, designed the market power mitigation proposal based upon FERC’s merger review criteria.

Q. What is market power and why is it an issue in this merger?

A. Market power generally reflects the amount and location of electric generating capacity owned or controlled by a participant in wholesale electric markets like PJM. Regulatory agencies want to make sure that any one owner of electric generating capacity doesn’t have the ability to artificially raise prices by physically or economically withholding energy and capacity from the market.

  The Exelon/PSEG merger will create an electric generating company with more than 40,000 megawatts of electric generating capacity located in PJM markets. FERC will consider whether the size and location of this generating portfolio presents the potential for market concentration. Both companies recognize this concern and the FERC application filed on Feb. 4, 2005, includes a plan to address the issue in detail.

Q. How is it determined if there is a market power issue?

1


A. FERC has a series of tests or “screens” that it asks companies to apply under a variety of conditions to determine under what circumstances market power issues may exist. FERC examines multiple time periods and load conditions when applying these screens. The companies have done a detailed analysis using FERC’s market power screens and have determined that a potential for market power does exist, primarily in PJM East. PJM East is part of the “traditional” PJM market, which includes eastern Pennsylvania and central and northern New Jersey.

Q. How much capacity is being transferred?

A. 5,500 MW of capacity in PJM, with an emphasis on PJM East. This is unprecedented in magnitude. Some of the capacity will be divested – that is, sold outright. The nuclear baseload capacity will not be divested outright, but instead will be part of a “virtual divestiture,” which is explained below.

Q. How are the companies specifically proposing to mitigate the market power issue?

A. The plan calls for the new company to divest at least 550 MW of coal-fired capacity, 1,350 MW of mid-merit, and 1,000 MW of peaking capacity in the PJM East region. This is a total of 2,900 MW of generation.

  The plan also calls for “virtual divestiture” of more than 2,600 MW of baseload nuclear capacity. This will be accomplished by long-term sales (for at least 15 years or the life of a unit) or annual auctions of 25-MW blocks of nuclear capacity for three-year terms. The amount of nuclear capacity not sold via long-term contracts will be available for the annual capacity auctions.

  The virtual divestiture is designed to transfer control of the capacity without losing the benefit to the marketplace of Exelon’s demonstrated nuclear operating expertise. In addition, the annual nuclear capacity auctions will be timed to coincide with New Jersey’s Basic Generation Service (BGS) wholesale power auction, in which the state’s distribution utilities obtain the energy and capacity they need to serve customers. The expectation is that making the nuclear capacity available to other wholesale suppliers will contribute to the competitiveness of the BGS auction.

Q. Which plants will be sold?

A. The market power issues are mainly in the eastern part of PJM, encompassing portions of eastern Pennsylvania and central and northern New Jersey, and are across all types of generation. Therefore, all generating units in this region could be considered for inclusion in the portfolio of assets considered for sale. However, the specifics of implementing the plan have yet to be determined and there have been no decisions made about any unit.

Q. Are we considering selling some of both Exelon’s and PSEG’s facilities?

A. Yes.

Q. How will the plants be sold? Will all of the plants/MW be sold to one buyer?

A. The plan provides that no more than half of the capacity will be sold to any one purchaser. In addition, none of the capacity will be sold to any entity that already owns more than 5 percent of capacity in PJM East.

Q. If a divestiture is required, when would it take place?

A. Until the merger closes, Exelon and PSEG will continue to operate as separate companies. Therefore, divestitures resulting from the market mitigation plan will not take place until after the merger closes. The companies have proposed to FERC that divestiture will occur within 18 months of the merger close.

Q. Will any plants be retired?

A. Under current FERC rules, plant retirements are not considered market mitigation. However, the company does evaluate the economics of all of our plants, and this practice will continue after the merger.

Q. What about the nuclear baseload plants? Will they be sold?

A. No. The companies will virtually divest the nuclear plants through a combination of generation output swaps, long-term direct sales, and shorter-term sales through an annual auction. The “virtual” divestiture concept increases market participation, and the annual auction component has been designed to coincide with the current New Jersey Basic Generation Service process (the process by which New Jersey investor-owned utilities procure energy for its customers). Under the proposed “virtual” divestiture, the new company will remain the owner and NRC-licensed operator of these plants.

Q. With respect to the nuclear capacity, why is it being sold in blocks of 25 MW?

A. Doing so provides a wide array of parties an opportunity to procure rights to baseload capacity.

Q. Will any of the companies’ natural gas distribution assets need to be sold?

A. Since the gas businesses of both Exelon and PSEG are distribution businesses that are regulated by state utility commissions, the companies do not foresee the need to divest of any of the existing natural gas assets.

Q. Who will determine how we will actually implement the proposed mitigation being presented to FERC?

A. FERC must approve our application. It may impose different terms and conditions on the approval than we have proposed. The U.S. Department of Justice also will review our application. In addition, New Jersey,

3


  Pennsylvania, and Illinois will review the applications, but we do not expect them to impose conditions that pertain to wholesale market power mitigation.

Q. Which federal regulatory agencies need to approve the mitigation plan?

A. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. In addition, the Department of Justice has to review the transaction to ensure compliance with federal antitrust provisions.

Q. Doesn’t PJM monitor market concentration?

A. Yes. The PJM market monitor has the authority to identify and deter attempts by market participants to exercise generation or transmission market power. FERC requires, however, that the company mitigate in advance any market power issues or concerns that are identified as part of the regulatory approval process. The mitigation proposals are intended to do just that. Following the close of the merger and the implementation of the mitigation plan, the PJM market monitor will continue in its role, both with respect to Exelon Electric & Gas and all other market participants.
