(c) The Executive shall be entitled to purchase the computer furnished by the Company for his or her use. The Executive shall be responsible for payment of expenses incurred after the Termination Date with respect to the Company-owned cellular phone furnished for his or her use.

(d) If the Executive is entitled to any benefit under any employee benefit plan of the Company that is accrued and vested on the Termination Date and that is not expressly referred to in this Agreement, such benefit shall be provided to the Executive in accordance with the terms of such employee benefit plan.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 8(d) or anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that he or she is not and shall not be entitled to benefits under any other severance or change in control plan, program, agreement or arrangement, and that the benefits provided under this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive benefits to which the Executive may become entitled upon his or her termination of employment. In the event the Executive dies prior to executing the Waiver and Release attached hereto, neither he or she, his or her estate, nor any other person shall be entitled to any further compensation or benefits under this Agreement, unless and until the executor of the Executive’s estate (and/or such other heirs or representatives as may be requested by the Company) executes upon Company request and does not revoke such a Waiver and Release.

9. Restrictive Covenants. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that he or she is bound by, and subject to, the Restrictive Covenants and the Waiver and Release. The Executive shall comply with, and observe, the Restrictive Covenants including, without

limitation, the confidential information, non-competition, non-solicitation and intellectual property provisions and related covenants contained therein, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

(b) The parties intend this Agreement to comply with section 409A of the Code. In the event the timing of any payment or benefit under this Agreement would result in any tax or penalty under section 409A of the Code, the Company may reasonably adjust the timing of such payment or benefit if doing so will eliminate or materially reduce such tax or penalty and amend this Agreement accordingly. Executive acknowledges that Executive has been advised to consult Executive’s personal tax advisor concerning this Agreement, and has not relied on the Company or Subsidiary for tax advice.

11. Non-disparagement. The Executive shall not (a) make any written or oral statement that brings the Company or any of its affiliates or the employees, officers, directors or agents of the Company or any of its affiliates into disrepute, or tarnishes any of their images or reputations or (b) publish, comment upon or disseminate any statements suggesting or accusing the Company or any of its affiliates, employees, officers, directors or agents of any misconduct or unlawful behavior.

13. Other Employment; Other Plans. The Executive shall not be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any provision of this Agreement. The amounts payable hereunder shall not

be reduced by any payments received by the Executive from any other employer; provided, however, that any continued welfare benefits provided for by Section 8(a) shall not duplicate any benefits that are provided to the Executive and his or her family by such other employer and shall be secondary to any coverage provided by Medicare.

14. Cooperation by the Executive. During the Severance Period, the Executive shall (a) be reasonably available to the Company to respond to requests by them for information pertaining to or relating to matters which may be within the knowledge of the Executive and (b) cooperate with the Company in connection with any existing or future litigation or other proceedings brought by or against the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, to the extent Exelon reasonably deems the Executive’s cooperation necessary.

15. Successors; Binding Agreement.

17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Waiver and Release constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede and preempt any other understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related in any manner to the subject matter hereof.

No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. Failure by the Executive or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or to assert any right which the Executive or the Company may have hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.

20. Beneficiary. If the Executive dies prior to receiving all of the amounts payable hereunder (other than amounts payable under any plan referenced in Section 8(d), which shall be governed by any beneficiary designation in effect thereunder) but after executing the

Waiver and Release, such amounts shall be paid, except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein or in the applicable plans, to the beneficiary (“Beneficiary”) designated with respect to this Agreement by the Executive in writing to the Vice President, Corporate Compensation of the Company during his or her lifetime, which the Executive may change from time to time by new designation filed in like manner without the consent of any Beneficiary; or if no such Beneficiary is designated, to his or her surviving spouse, and if there be none, to his or her estate.

21. Nonalienation of Benefits. Benefits payable under this Agreement shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, prior to actually being received by the Executive, and any such attempt to dispose of any right to benefits payable hereunder shall be void.

22. Severability. If all or any part of this Agreement is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not serve to invalidate any portion of this Agreement not declared to be unlawful or invalid, except that in the event a determination is made that the Restrictive Covenants as applied to the Executive are invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, then this Agreement shall be void and the Company shall have no obligation to provide benefits hereunder. Any paragraph or part of a paragraph so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner which will give effect to the terms of such paragraph or part of a paragraph to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.

23. Communications. Nothing in this Agreement, including Sections 9 and 11, shall be construed to prohibit the Executive from communicating with, including testifying in any administrative proceeding before, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the United States Department of Labor, the Securities Exchange Commission or from otherwise addressing issues related to nuclear safety with any party or taking any other action protected under section 211 of the Energy Reorganization Act and no such communication or action shall constitute a breach of Section 11 or any other provision of this Agreement; provided, however, that if the Executive is entitled under section 211 of the Energy Reorganization Act, employment law or securities law to pursue a claim, complaint or charge seeking damages, costs or fees, the Executive agrees that the consideration provided to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be fully inclusive of all such damages, costs and fees that could have been awarded to the Executive, that such consideration is being paid in full and that the Executive under no circumstances shall be entitled to compensation of any kind from the Company or any of the other party released by the Waiver and Release not expressly provided for pursuant to this Agreement.
