Section 5 — Corporate Governance and Management

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On February 26, 2007, the board of directors of Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) adopted the Commonwealth Edison Long Term Incentive Plan (Effective January 1, 2007) (the ComEd LTIP).  Participants in the ComEd LTIP include 19 of ComEd’s most senior officers, who are no longer eligible to receive awards under Exelon Corporation’s Long-Term Incentive Plan.  The ComEd LTIP is consistent with the goal of ensuring that the incentive compensation of ComEd’s most senior officers is aligned solely with achieving ComEd financial, operational and regulatory/legislative goals.  Awards are payable in cash.  The financial goals are related to ComEd’s return on equity and capital structure.  The operational goals are related to achieving targeted levels of outage duration and frequency.  The regulatory/legislative goals are related to rate-making, energy procurement, and avoiding legislation that could adversely impact the effective operation of the business.  A notional award pool of $16.6 million, equal to the sum of three years of annual target awards ($5.5 million per year) was established.  Each year, the Board will assess progress relative to the longer-term goals and determine an annual payout.  Awards may range from 0-200% of target, and accordingly payouts may range from $0 to $11.1 million each year, and from $0 to $33.2 million over the entire term, but cannot exceed the amount available under the award pool.  One-third of the award would be paid immediately while the other two-thirds will vest ratably over the next two years.
