This Amendment No. 26 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended, the “Schedule TO”) amends and supplements the statement originally filed on November 12, 2008 by Exelon Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (“Exelon”), and Exelon Xchange Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Exelon (“Exelon Xchange”). This Schedule TO relates to the offer by Exelon, through Exelon Xchange, to exchange for each of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “NRG common stock”), of NRG Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NRG”), 0.485 of a share of Exelon common stock, without par value (the “Exelon common stock”). The Offer (as defined below) is made on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the prospectus/offer to exchange, dated November 12, 2008, as amended on December 23, 2008, January 23, 2009 and March 9, 2009, and related to the Offer (the “Prospectus”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together as they may be amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, constitute the “Offer”). Exelon also filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-155278) (the “Registration Statement”) on November 12, 2008, as amended on December 23, 2008, January 23, 2009 and March 9, 2009, relating to the Offer, of which the Prospectus forms a part. The terms and conditions of the Offer are set forth in the Prospectus and the related Letter of Transmittal, which are set forth as Exhibits (a)(4) and (a)(1)(A) hereto, respectively.

All information contained in the Prospectus and the Letter of Transmittal, and any prospectus supplement or any other supplement thereto related to the Offer, is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference with respect to Items 1 through 11, except that such information is amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.

The information set forth below regarding NRG is incorporated by reference into these Items 1 through 11. The SEC allows Exelon to incorporate information into this Schedule TO “by reference,” which means that Exelon can disclose important information to NRG stockholders by referring to another document or information filed separately with the SEC. The information incorporated by reference is deemed to be part of this Schedule TO, except for any information amended or superseded by information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Schedule TO. These incorporated documents contain important information about NRG and its financial condition.

Item 10. Financial Statements.

Not applicable.

Item 11. Additional Information.

Item 11(a) is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

NRG Energy, Inc. v. Exelon Corporation, No. 09-CV-2448. On March 17, 2009, NRG filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Exelon and Exelon Xchange. NRG seeks declaratory and injunctive relief requiring Exelon to issue corrective disclosures to the Registration Statement in connection with the Offer, including, inter alia, a disclosure that Exelon allegedly does not intend to consummate the Offer, and disclosures concerning regulatory proceedings, the refinancing of certain NRG debt upon any closing of the Offer, and certain voting rights. Exelon believes these claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action. On March 19, 2009, NRG filed an Order to Show Cause For Expedited Discovery in connection with its complaint. Proceedings on that request are pending.

Item 12. Exhibits.

Item 12 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
