(f) Subsequent to the date of this Agreement, or if earlier, the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in the letter referred to in paragraph (e) of this Section 5 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the financial condition, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto) the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or delivery of the Purchased Bonds as contemplated by the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). (g) During the period from the date hereof to and including the Closing Date, there shall not have occurred a downgrading in the rating assigned to the Securities or any of the Company’s debt securities or commercial paper by any “nationally recognized statistical rating agency,” as that term is defined by the Commission in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, and no such securities rating agency shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of the Securities or any of the Company’s other debt securities. (h) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request. If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions or certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and their counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing. The documents required to be delivered by this Section 5 will be delivered at the office of counsel for the Company, at Sidley Austin LLP, Xxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, on the Closing Date.

13 278297716v.7 6. Conditions of Company’s Obligation. The obligation of the Company to deliver the Purchased Bonds upon payment therefor shall be subject to the following conditions: On the Closing Date, the order of the ICC referred to in subparagraph (l) of Section 2 hereof shall be in full force and effect substantially in the form as entered by the ICC; the Mortgage shall be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act as and to the extent required by such Act; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall then be pending before, or threatened by, the Commission. In case any of the conditions specified above in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company by delivering written notice of termination to the Representatives. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except to the extent provided in Sections 7 and 8 hereof. 7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Purchased Bonds provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters or the Company set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 hereof, respectively, is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof, or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provisions hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Purchased Bonds. 8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, any “issuer free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Act and being hereinafter referred to as an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”), or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with the Provided Statements. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

14 278297716v.7 (b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its directors, officers, employees and agents, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth (i) in the last paragraph of the cover page of the Prospectus Supplement regarding the delivery of the Purchased Bonds, and (ii) under the heading “Underwriting” in the Prospectus Supplement, (A) the first paragraph under the sub-heading “–Commissions and Discounts” related to concessions and discounts and (B) the paragraphs under the sub-heading “–Price Stabilization and Short Positions” related to stabilization, over-allotments, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids (collectively, the “Provided Statements”), constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriters for inclusion in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or in any amendment or supplement thereto), or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any indemnified party is entitled to retain separate legal counsel (in addition to local counsel) the indemnifying party shall not be required to bear the fees, costs and expenses of more than one

15 278297716v.7 separate counsel for all indemnified parties with respect to such lawsuit, claim or proceeding; provided, however, that such legal counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to each indemnified person. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party. (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under section (a) or (b) above, then the Company and the Underwriters agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Purchased Bonds. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) of the Purchased Bonds received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions with respect to the Purchased Bonds, in each case set forth on the cover of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriters (except as may be provided in any agreement among the Underwriters relating to the offering of the Purchased Bonds) be responsible for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to the Purchased Bonds purchased by such Underwriters hereunder; provided, further, that each Underwriter’s obligation to contribute to Losses hereunder shall be several and not joint. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each officer, director, employee or agent

16 278297716v.7 of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d). 9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Purchased Bonds agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the amount of the Purchased Bonds set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate amount of the Purchased Bonds set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Purchased Bonds which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amounts of Purchased Bonds which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Purchased Bonds set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Purchased Bonds, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Purchased Bonds, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five business days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company or any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder. 10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Purchased Bonds, if at any time after the date hereof and prior to the delivery of and payment for the Purchased Bonds (i) trading in Exelon Corporation’s common stock shall have been suspended by the Commission or the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. or trading in securities generally on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. or New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange; (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New York State authorities; (iii) a major disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Purchased Bonds as contemplated by the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. 11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or the Company or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will

17 278297716v.7 survive delivery of and payment for the Purchased Bonds. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement. 12. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to them at the addresses specified in Schedule I hereto, or, if sent to the Company, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to Commonwealth Edison Company, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000, Attention: Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer (fax no.: (000) 000-0000), with a copy to Exelon Corporation, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Floor, X.X.

Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The term “successors and assigns” as used in this Agreement shall not include any purchaser, as such purchaser, of any of the Purchased Bonds from any of the Underwriters. 14. Representations, Warranty and Agreement of the Underwriters. The Underwriters represent and warrant to, and agree with, the Company as follows: (a) The Representatives are authorized to act as the representatives of the Underwriters in connection with this financing, and the Representatives’ execution and delivery of this Agreement and any action under this Agreement taken by such Representatives will be binding upon all Underwriters. (b) Each Underwriter severally represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company and each other Underwriter that it has not made, and will not make (other than one or more term sheets relating to the Purchased Bonds containing information not inconsistent with the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) any offer relating to the Purchased Bonds that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Act) or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” under Rule 433 under the Act required to be filed with the Commission, without the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives. (c) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and agrees that: (i) it has not solicited, and will not solicit, offers to purchase any of the Securities from, (ii) it has not sold, and will not sell, any of the Securities to, and (iii) it has not distributed, and will not distribute, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus to, any person or entity in any jurisdiction outside of the United States, except, in each case, in compliance in all material respects with applicable laws and as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. For the purposes of this paragraph, “United States” means the United States of America, its territories, its possessions (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico) and other areas subject to its jurisdiction.

18 278297716v.7 15. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company hereby acknowledges that (a) the purchase and sale of the Purchased Bonds pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters and any affiliate through which it may be acting, on the other, (b) the Underwriters are acting as principals and not as agents or fiduciaries of the Company and (c) the Company’s engagement of the Underwriters in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. 16. Research Analyst Independence. The Company and the Underwriters acknowledge that the Underwriters’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such Underwriters’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering of the Securities that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by such Underwriters’ investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt securities of the Company. 17. Patriot Act Acknowledgment. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub.

Interpretation When No Representatives. In the event no Underwriters are named in Schedule II hereto, the term “Underwriters” shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to be the Representative or Representatives named as such in Schedule I hereto, the principal amounts of the Purchased Bonds to be purchased by any such Underwriter shall be that set opposite its name in Schedule I hereto and all references to the “Underwriters” shall be deemed to be the Representative or Representatives named in Schedule I hereto. 19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic

Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. (b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

Other Provisions: As set forth in the Final Prospectus. As set forth in the Final Prospectus. B. Definitions For purposes of Part A above, the following term shall have the following meaning: “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by us in accordance with the following two paragraphs. The Treasury Rate shall be determined by us after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, we shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date. If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, we shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there

Schedule I 278297716v.7 are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, we shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, we shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time.
