The Company will provide each holder of the Bonds (and, until the Closing provided for in Section 3, each Purchaser) (irrespective of the amount of Bonds then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required as set forth in Article X of the Mortgage, to enable such holder (and Purchaser, if applicable) to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Bond Documents. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 to each holder (and Purchaser, if applicable) of outstanding Bonds promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders (and Purchasers, if applicable) of Bonds.

This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Bonds from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. SECTION 20. Confidential Information.

Each holder of a Bond, by its acceptance of a Bond, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Bond of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20. In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Bond is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 20, this Section 20 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Company, this Section 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking. SECTION 21. Substitution of Purchaser. Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a “Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Bonds that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a

23 AmericasActive:16615028.7 confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Bonds then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Bonds under this Agreement and the other Bond Documents. SECTION 22. Miscellaneous. Section 22.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Bond) whether so expressed or not, except that, subject to Section 21 of Article IV of the Mortgage, the Company may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Bonds without the prior written consent of each holder. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. Section 22.2. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Section 22.3. Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant.

Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. Section 22.5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. Section 22.6. Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) Each of the Company and each holder of a Bond irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, but excluding the Bonds or the other Bond Documents. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and each holder of a Bond irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. (b) Nothing in this Section 22.6 shall affect the right of the Company or any holder of a Bond to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the Company or the holders of any of the Bonds may have to bring proceedings against the other in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

In that capacity, we have examined the following: (i) the Bond Purchase Agreement; (ii) the Mortgage; (iii) the Bonds; (iv) the Restated Certificate and Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Articles”); (v) the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”); (vi) certified resolutions of the board of directors of the Company; (vii) Good Standing Certificates, each dated as of a recent date, from the District of Columbia Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs (the “DC Good Standing Certificate”) and the Commonwealth of Virginia (the “Virginia Good Standing Certificate,” and collectively with the DC Good Standing Certificate, the “Good Standing Certificates”);

We have also examined, and relied upon the accuracy of factual matters contained in, originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other organizational records of the Company, certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers of the Company, and agreements, instruments and documents and have made such examinations of law as we have deemed necessary in connection with the opinions set forth below. We have assumed the legal capacity and competence of natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic, electronic or facsimile copies. We have made no independent factual investigation other than as described above, and as to other factual matters, we have relied exclusively on the facts stated in the representations and warranties contained in the Bond Purchase Agreement (other than representations and warranties constituting conclusions of law on matters on which we opine). We have not examined any records of any court, administrative tribunal or other similar entity in connection with this opinion letter. When an opinion or confirmation is given to our knowledge, the relevant knowledge is limited to the actual contemporaneous knowledge of facts, without investigation, by the lawyer who is our current primary contact for the Company and the individual lawyers in this firm who have participated in the specific transaction to which this opinion letter relates. We have also assumed, without verification, (i) that each party to the Bond Purchase Agreement and the agreements, instruments and documents executed in connection therewith, other than the Company (each such party an “Other Party”), has the power (including, without limitation, corporate power where applicable) and authority to enter into and perform the Bond Purchase Agreement and such other agreements, instruments and documents, (ii) the due authorization, execution and delivery by each Other Party of the Bond Purchase Agreement and such other agreements, instruments and documents and (iii) that the Bond Purchase Agreement and such other agreements, instruments and documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each Other Party, enforceable against such Other Party in accordance with their respective terms. Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, exceptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 1. Based on the Good Standing Certificates, the Company is a corporation organized and in good standing under the laws of the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Virginia. 2. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Bond Purchase Agreement, the Supplemental Indenture and the Bonds and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Bond Purchase Agreement, the Mortgage and

The Bond Purchase Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 4. The Supplemental Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. 5. The Mortgage constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity principles and except to the extent that the law of the jurisdictions in which the mortgaged property is located may limit or deny certain remedial provisions of the Mortgage. 6. The Bonds are in the form contemplated by the Mortgage and have been duly executed by the Company, and when the Bonds have been (A) duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee under the Mortgage and (B) issued and delivered by the Company against payment of the purchase price therefor as provided in the Bond Purchase Agreement, the Bonds will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Mortgage. 7.

The Company is not, and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Bonds and the application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the Bond Purchase Agreement, will not be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 10.

Exhibit 4.4(b) (to Bond Purchase Agreement) AmericasActive:16615028.7 EXHIBIT 4.4(b) FORM OF OPINION OF GENERAL COUNSEL OF THE COMPANY The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee under the Mortgage and Deed of Trust of Potomac Electric Power Company dated July 1, 1936, as amended and supplemented (the “Mortgage”), 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 The Purchasers of Potomac Electric Power Company First Mortgage Bonds, [•]% Series due [•] named in Schedule I attached hereto (collectively, the “Purchasers”) Ladies and Gentlemen: Referring to the application made March 24, 2022 of Potomac Electric Power Company (the “Company”) for the authentication and delivery of $[•] aggregate principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds, [•]% Series due [•] (the “Bonds”), pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3, 4, and 7 of Article III and Section 1 of Article XVIII of the above-mentioned Mortgage and Section 4.4(b) of the Bond Purchase Agreement dated as of March 24, 2022 by and among the Company and the Purchasers named in Schedule I attached hereto, I advise you that, in my opinion: 1. The Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 1, 2022 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), providing for the issue of the Bonds is in due and legal form, has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and is a valid instrument legally binding upon the Company. 2. Since [•], no property described in the granting clauses of the Mortgage or in any previous certificate filed with the Trustee pursuant to Sections 4(a) or 5(c) of Article III or Sections 2(c), 3(c), 4(a), or 8 of Article VIII, or, as to property additions not subject to an unfunded prior lien, Section 1 of Article VIII of the Mortgage, which is still owned by the Company, has become and still remains subject to any lien not existing thereon at such previous date prior to the lien of the mortgage as security for the Bonds being applied for, excepting permitted liens. 3. The issuance of the Bonds, the authentication and delivery of which are being applied for, has been duly authorized by all governmental authorities the consent of which is requisite to the legal issuance of the Bonds, as evidenced by the officially attested copy, accompanying this opinion, of the order of the Public Service Commission of the District of Columbia and an officially certified copy, accompanying this opinion, of the order of the Public Service Commission of the State of Maryland, authorizing the issuance of the Bonds, and no approval by the State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of Virginia is necessary for such issuance.

Exhibit 4.4(b) (to Bond Purchase Agreement) AmericasActive:16615028.7 4. The Company is duly authorized and entitled to the authentication and delivery of the Bonds applied for in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage and to issue the Bonds under the laws of the United States of America, the District of Columbia, the State of Maryland and the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction. Upon the issuance of the Bonds and receipt by the Company of consideration therefor in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage, the Bonds will be the valid and binding obligations of the Company and entitled to the benefits and security of the Mortgage, and the amount of bonds then outstanding under the Mortgage will not exceed the amount permitted by law. 5. No instruments of conveyance, transfer or assignment, other than the Mortgage, are necessary to vest in the Trustee to hold as a part of the mortgaged property all right, title and interest of the Company in and to the property additions made the basis of the above-mentioned application. 6. The Company has good title to all tracts and parcels of land included among the property additions made the basis of the above-mentioned application (except such as have been retired), subject only to such defects therein as the Company has power by appropriate legal proceedings to cure, or which, in my opinion, are inconsequential. 7. As to such of the property additions made the basis of the above- mentioned application as consist of rights of way or easements or property additions located on property with respect to which the Company has only a right of way or easement, the Company is entitled to such rights of way or easements for an unlimited or indeterminate or indefinite period of time or for a period extending beyond the date of maturity of all of the Bonds applied for and also beyond the date of maturity of all bonds now outstanding under the Mortgage, or the Company has power under eminent domain or similar statutes to condemn and acquire such rights of way or rights of way adjacent thereto. 8. As to such of the property additions made the basis of the above- mentioned application as consist of property additions located, under the terms of any permit or franchise granted by a governmental body, on property not owned by the Company, such permit or franchise is adequate for the operation of such property additions by the Company for an unlimited or indeterminate or indefinite period of time or for the periods specified in such permit or franchise or in the law under which it is held, and the terms of such permit or franchise, or the law under which they are held, do not contain any provisions giving to any public authority the right to take over such property additions without the payment of fair consideration therefor. 9. The Company has corporate power to own and operate the property additions made the basis of the above-mentioned application. 10. The nature and extent of the prior liens and judgment liens, if any, on such property additions are correctly stated on the engineer’s certificate submitted in connection with above-mentioned application. 11. The Mortgage is a lien upon all property additions made the basis of the above-mentioned application (except such as have been retired and except improvements in or upon any public highway) free and clear of any mortgage or other lien prior to the lien of the

Exhibit 4.4(b) (to Bond Purchase Agreement) AmericasActive:16615028.7 Mortgage, except (i) permitted liens as defined in Article I of the Mortgage, (ii) easements for street, highway, railroad and right of way purposes and (iii) certain exceptions and reservations in the instruments by which the Company acquired title to such property additions. 12. All conditions precedent provided for in the Mortgage (including all covenants compliance with which constitutes a condition precedent) which relate to (i) the execution and delivery by the Trustee of the Supplemental Indenture and (ii) the authentication and delivery of the Bonds applied for by the Company have been complied with. I, or attorneys under my supervision, have reviewed all conditions precedent provided for in the Mortgage (including all covenants compliance with which constitutes a condition precedent) which relate to (i) the execution and delivery by the Trustee of the Supplemental Indenture and (ii) the authentication and delivery of the Bonds applied for and all documents and instruments referred to in this opinion (including the permits and franchises referred to in paragraph 8, above, and the instruments granting the rights of way and easements referred to in paragraph 7, above). In addition, I, or attorneys under my supervision, have reviewed the applicable laws of the United States of America, the District of Columbia, the State of Maryland and the Commonwealth of Virginia. With respect to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I have received advice, satisfactory to me, from Pennsylvania counsel whom I deem fully competent to furnish such advice. I, or attorneys under my supervision, also have examined receipts or other evidence satisfactory to me or them with respect to the filings for recording mentioned in paragraph 1 above, and either title abstracts or certificates or insurance policies from title insurance companies secured at or after the acquisition of the land referred to in paragraph 6, above, or title examinations made and title opinions rendered in the past with respect to such lands by other attorneys regarded by me as competent. In my opinion, I have made such examination and investigation as is necessary to enable me to express an informed opinion as to whether such conditions and covenants have been complied with and, in my opinion, such conditions and covenants have been complied with. The terms used in this opinion which are defined in Article I of the Mortgage are used as therein defined. Very truly yours, Xxxxxxxxx X.
