Item 5. Other Events On October 3, 2003, Exelon Corporation (Exelon) announced that it will buy British Energy's fifty percent interest in AmerGen Energy Co. LLC. The news release is attached as Exhibit 99. Exelon estimates that the transaction could provide about $0.10 per share of incremental earnings in 2004.

The current 2004 operating earnings guidance range of $5.15 and $5.45 per share does not include earnings accretion related to this transaction.
