Your investment in the Bonds will involve certain risks. You should carefully consider the following discussion and the risks described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, the factors listed under “Forward Looking Statements” in this prospectus supplement and the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus before making a decision to invest in the Bonds. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

We can give no assurances concerning the liquidity of any market that may develop for the Bonds offered hereby, the ability of any investor to sell any of the Bonds, or the price at which investors would be able to sell them. If a market for the Bonds does not develop, investors may be unable to resell the Bonds for an extended period of time, if at all. If a market for the Bonds does develop, it may not continue or it may not be sufficiently liquid to allow holders to resell any of their Bonds. In addition, the trading price for the Bonds may fluctuate, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar publicly traded debt securities, our performance and other factors. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investments readily, and lenders may not readily accept the Bonds as collateral for loans.

We expect to receive the net proceeds from the sale of the Bonds of approximately $346,882,000 after deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated fees and expenses. The net proceeds from the sale of the Bonds will be used to refinance at maturity $250 million aggregate principal amount of our 7.75% first mortgage bonds due November 15, 2018, short-term borrowings having an approximate weighted average interest rate of 2.41% per annum as of October 5, 2018 and for general corporate purposes. Pending such use, we may temporarily invest such proceeds in short-term interest-bearing obligations.

The following table sets forth our cash and cash equivalents, short-term borrowings and consolidated capitalization as of June 30, 2018, and as adjusted to give effect to the issuance and sale of the Bonds and the use of the net proceeds from this offering as set forth under “Use of Proceeds” above. This table is qualified in its entirety by, and should be considered in conjunction with, the more detailed information incorporated by reference or provided in this prospectus supplement or in the accompanying prospectus.

The following description of the particular terms of the offered Bonds is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. References in this description of the Bonds and our Mortgage and Deed of Trust (referred to herein as our Mortgage) to “we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company” are to Atlantic City Electric Company only and not its subsidiaries and references to “first mortgage bonds” means first mortgage bonds issued under the Mortgage, including the offered Bonds.

The Bonds will be issued under our Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated January 15, 1937, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (ultimate successor to the Irving Trust Company) referred to herein as the Mortgage as proposed to be further supplemented by a supplemental indenture relating to the Bonds. The Bonds will initially be limited in aggregate principal amount to $350,000,000. We may issue additional first mortgage bonds under our Mortgage with the same priority as the Bonds offered by this prospectus supplement, including first mortgage bonds having the same series designation and terms (except for the public offering price, the issue date and, in some cases, the first interest payment date) as the Bonds offered by this prospectus supplement, without the approval of the holders of the outstanding first mortgage bonds issued under and subject to the conditions set forth in, our Mortgage, including the Bonds offered by this prospectus supplement. The Bonds will be secured equally with all other first mortgage bonds outstanding or hereafter issued under our Mortgage. The Bonds will be issued in book-entry form only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Interest on the Bonds will be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2019, until the principal is paid or made available for payment.

Interest on the Bonds will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The Bonds will mature on October 15, 2028.

If an interest payment date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), interest will be payable on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such interest payment date (and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay). Interest will be paid to the persons in whose names the bonds are registered at the close of business on each April 1 and October 1. However, interest payable at maturity will be paid to the person to whom the principal is paid. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months, and will accrue from the date of the initial issuance of the bonds or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid, as applicable.

At any time prior to July 15, 2028 (i.e., three months prior to the maturity date of the Bonds), we may, at our option, redeem the Bonds in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

At any time on or after July 15, 2028, we may, at our option, redeem the Bonds in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the redemption date.

We will send notice of any redemption at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each registered holder of the Bonds to be redeemed.

Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Bonds or portions of the Bonds called for redemption.

“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the redemption date.

“Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions or trust companies in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York are generally authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to remain closed.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Bonds to be redeemed (assuming for this purpose, that the Bonds matured on October 15, 2028) that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Bonds to be redeemed (assuming for this purpose, that the Bonds matured on October 15, 2028).

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Mizuho Securities USA LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and their respective successors and affiliates, in each case, unless such entity ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Company shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding that redemption date.

The Bonds offered hereby are designated as First Mortgage Bonds, 4.000% Series due 2028. We may from time to time, without the consent of the holders and subject to the conditions set forth in the Mortgage, issue additional bonds of this series. Any such additional bonds will have the same terms and the same CUSIP number as, and on this basis will be fungible with, the Bonds being offered hereby.

We will issue the Bonds in the form of one or more global bonds in fully registered form initially in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The global bonds will be deposited with DTC and may not be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC or by DTC or any nominee to a successor of DTC or a nominee of such successor.

DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). DTC holds and provides asset servicing for (over 3.5 million issues of) U.S. and non-U.S. equity, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants (direct participants) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among direct participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between direct participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly (indirect participants). The rules applicable to DTC and its direct and indirect participants are on file with the SEC. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. We do not intend this internet address to be an active link or to otherwise incorporate the content of the website into this prospectus supplement.

Clearstream advises that it is incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg as a bank. Clearstream holds securities for its customers and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between its customers through electronic book-entry transfers between their accounts. Clearstream provides to its customers among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream interfaces with domestic securities markets in over 30 countries through established depository and custodial relationships. As a bank, Clearstream is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Commission for the Supervision of the Financial Sector, also known as the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier. Its customers are recognized financial institutions around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Its customers in the United States are limited to securities brokers and dealers and banks. Indirect access to Clearstream is also available to other institutions such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with the customer.

Euroclear advises that it was created in 1968 to hold securities for its participants and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear participants through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear provides various other services, including securities lending and borrowing and interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. Euroclear is operated by Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. Euroclear Clearance establishes policy for Euroclear on behalf of Euroclear participants. Euroclear participants include banks, including central banks, securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include the Initial purchasers. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear participant, either directly or indirectly. Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear operator are governed by the terms and conditions governing use of Euroclear and the related operating procedures of Euroclear. These terms and conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within Euroclear, withdrawals of securities and cash from Euroclear, and receipts of payments with respect to securities in Euroclear. All securities in Euroclear are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance accounts. The Euroclear operator acts under the terms and conditions only on behalf of Euroclear participants and has no record of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear participants.

Euroclear further advises that investors that acquire, hold and transfer interests in the Bonds by book-entry through accounts with the Euroclear operator or any other securities intermediary are subject to the laws and contractual provisions governing their relationship with their intermediary, as well as the laws and contractual provisions governing the relationship between such an intermediary and each other intermediary, if any, standing between themselves and the global securities.

Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds in DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of Bonds is in turn to be recorded on the direct and indirect participants’ records. Beneficial owners of the Bonds will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase, but beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participant through which the beneficial owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of direct and indirect participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by direct participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The direct and indirect participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants, and by direct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. The laws of some jurisdictions may require that certain persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities which they own. Consequently, those persons may be prohibited from purchasing beneficial interests in the global bonds from any beneficial owner or otherwise.

Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in such issue to be redeemed.

So long as DTC’s nominee is the registered owner of the global bonds, such nominee for all purposes will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Bonds for all purposes under the Mortgage. Except as provided below, beneficial owners will not be entitled to have any of the Bonds registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Bonds in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Mortgage.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy).

All payments on the global bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from trustees or issuers on payment dates in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by

standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such participant and not of DTC, the trustee or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal and interest to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) shall be the responsibility of the Trustee or us, disbursement of such payments to direct participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the beneficial owners shall be the responsibility of direct and indirect participants.

DTC may discontinue providing its service as securities depositary with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to us or the Trustee. In addition, we may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depositary). In the event that a successor securities depositary is not obtained under the above circumstances, or, alternatively, if an event of default with respect to the Bonds has occurred and is continuing, Bonds certificates in fully registered form are required to be printed and delivered to beneficial owners of the global bonds representing such Bonds.

Secondary market trading between DTC participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC’s rules and will be settled in immediately available funds using DTC’s same-day funds settlement system. Secondary market trading between Clearstream customers and/or Euroclear participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with the applicable rules and operating procedures of Clearstream and Euroclear and will be settled using the procedures applicable to conventional Eurobonds in immediately available funds.

Cross market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly through DTC on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Clearstream customers or Euroclear participants, on the other, will be effected in DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of the relevant European international clearing system by its U.S. depositary; however, such cross market transactions will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines, in European time. The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its U.S. depository to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering interests in the Bonds to or receiving interests in the Bonds from DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Clearstream customers and Euroclear participants may not deliver instructions directly to their respective U.S. depositaries.

Because of time-zone differences, credits of interests in the Bonds received by Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a DTC participant will be made during subsequent securities settlement processing and dated the business day following the DTC settlement date. Such credits or any transactions involving interests in such Bonds settled during such processing will be reported to the relevant Clearstream customers or Euroclear participants on such business day. Cash received by Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of interests in the Bonds by or through a Clearstream customer or a Euroclear participant to a DTC participant will be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC.

The information in this section has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for its accuracy.

Neither we, the trustee nor the underwriters will have any responsibility or obligation to direct participants, or the persons for whom they act as nominees, with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC, its nominee or any direct participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, or payments to, or the providing of notice to direct participants or beneficial owners.

The Bonds will be secured, together with all other bonds now or hereafter issued, under the Mortgage, as amended and supplemented from time to time, including by means of supplemental indentures setting forth the terms of first mortgage bonds issued under the Mortgage or the description of after-acquired property that has become subject to the lien of the Mortgage, by a first lien (subject to the conditions and limitations in the instruments through which the Company claims title to its properties and excepted encumbrances under the Mortgage) on substantially all of the Company’s properties and franchises, other than the following:

(i)	cash, shares of stock and obligations (including bonds, notes and other securities) not specifically pledged, paid, deposited or delivered under the Mortgage;

(ii)	goods and equipment acquired for the purpose of sale or resale in the ordinary course of the Company’s business or for consumption in the operation of any of the Company’s properties;

(iii)	materials, supplies and construction equipment; and

(iv)	judgments, accounts and choses in action, the proceeds of which the Company is not obligated to deposit with the trustee under the Mortgage.

The lien of the mortgage also extends to after-acquired property (other than the types of property described above). However, after-acquired property may be subject to liens existing or placed thereon at the time of acquisition and, in certain circumstances, to liens attaching to such property prior to the recording and/or filing of an instrument specifically describing such property as being subject to the lien of the Mortgage. The after-acquired property clause may not be effective as to property acquired subsequent to the filing of a case with respect to the Company under the federal bankruptcy code.

Under New Jersey law, unless the State of New Jersey has made a valid conveyance, it owns in fee simple for the benefit of the public schools all lands now or formerly flowed by the tide up to the mean high-water line. However, formerly tidal-flowed lands that were not tidal-flowed at any time for 40 years, were not subject to the State’s claim unless the State had asserted a claim between November 1, 1981 and November 2, 1982. The Company believes that it has good title to any of its properties that may be subject to the State’s claim and will vigorously defend its title, or will obtain grants from the State as may ultimately be required. The Company believes that it has obtained all necessary grants from the State for its properties along the Delaware River. Assuming that all of the State’s claims were determined adversely to the Company, they would relate to land which would amount to less than one percent of net utility plant.

The trustee has a lien prior to the lien of holders of first mortgage bonds on the mortgaged property to secure the payment of its reasonable compensation and expenses.

Subject to the limitations described in the following paragraphs, the Company may issue additional first mortgage bonds ranking equally with all outstanding first mortgage bonds in an aggregate amount of up to:

(i)	65% of the cost or the then fair value to the Company (whichever is less) of property additions the Company has constructed or acquired after June 30, 1950;

(ii)	the amount of cash deposited with the trustee to serve as collateral against which additional first mortgage bonds may be issued; and

Property additions generally include property which is used or useful for the business of generating, transmitting or distributing electricity, but do not include property that the Company acquired to replace other property that it retired. If the Company acquires property that is subject to a lien prior to the lien of the Mortgage, under certain circumstances the Company may incur additional indebtedness secured by that lien.

The Mortgage contains certain affirmative covenants, including, without limitation: (a) corporate existence; (b) maintenance of insurance; (c) payment of taxes; (d) maintenance of properties; (e) payment of principal and interest on all first mortgage bonds outstanding under the Mortgage; (f) compliance with all valid requirements of any governmental authority relative to any mortgaged and pledged property; and (g) real estate filings.

“Events of Default” (or “completed defaults” when used in the Mortgage with respect to all first mortgage bonds issued thereunder) mean any of the following: (a) failure to pay any principal when due; (b) failure to pay interest when due, subject to a 90-day grace period; (c) failure to pay principal, premium, if any, or interest on any prior lien bonds, beyond any applicable grace period specified in the prior lien; (d) the occurrence of certain events relating to the Company’s bankruptcy or reorganization under bankruptcy or similar laws; (e) failure to perform any other covenant, agreement or condition in the Mortgage, subject to a 90-day grace period; and (f) failure to provide money for the redemption of first mortgage bonds called for redemption by the Company.

Upon the occurrence of any completed default, the trustee in its discretion may, and upon the written request of the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of all outstanding first mortgage bonds the trustee shall, declare all outstanding first mortgage bonds immediately due and payable. If, before any sale of the mortgaged property, all interest in arrears has been paid and all defaults have been cured, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding first mortgage bonds may annul such declaration.

If a completed default occurs and is continuing, the trustee in its discretion may, and upon the written request of the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of all outstanding first mortgage bonds and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction the trustee shall, enforce the lien of the Mortgage by foreclosing on the mortgaged property.

The holders of a majority in principal amount of first mortgage bonds may direct proceedings for the sale of the mortgaged property, or for the appointment of a receiver or any other proceedings under the Mortgage, provided that such direction is accordance with applicable law and the terms of the mortgage and, provided further, that the holders have no right to involve the trustee in any proceeding without offering the trustee adequate security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein.

The laws of the State of New Jersey and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, where the mortgaged property is located, may limit or deny the ability of the mortgage trustee or the bondholders to enforce certain rights and remedies provided in the mortgage in accordance with their terms.

The following is a general discussion of the material United States federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Bonds. This discussion deals only with Bonds that are beneficially held as capital assets (as that term is defined in section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code) by a purchaser of the Bonds at their original offering price when originally offered by us. The statements set forth in the following discussion, to the extent they constitute matters of United States federal income tax law or legal conclusions with respect thereto, represent the opinion of Ballard Spahr LLP.

This discussion is based on the Code, regulations issued under the Code and associated administrative and judicial interpretations, all as they currently exist as of the date of this prospectus supplement. The Code, regulations and interpretations, however, may change at any time, and any change could be retroactive. This discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of the United States federal income tax consequences to purchasers of the Bonds in light of their particular circumstances. It also does not address the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to beneficial owners of Bonds subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws (including, without limitation, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, banks, thrifts and other financial institutions, pension funds, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, dealers or traders in securities, currencies or notional principal contracts, persons holding a Bond as a position in a straddle, hedging, constructive sale or conversion transaction, or who mark their securities to market for federal income tax purposes, partners or other owners in partnerships or other pass-through entities, “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies” and their shareholders, government instrumentalities, certain part-year nonresident aliens, former citizens or residents of the United States, or “United States persons” (within the meaning of the Code) whose functional currency is other than the United States dollar). Accordingly, potential purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the United States federal income tax consequences to them of the ownership and disposition of the Bonds in their particular circumstances.

This discussion does not address United States federal estate and gift tax consequences, alternative minimum tax consequences, any foreign, state or local tax consequences, tax treaties or any other non-income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Bonds to the beneficial owner of a Bond. Accordingly, prospective purchasers of the Bonds also should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the consequences to them of any such other taxes.

There can be no assurance that a change in law, potentially with retroactive effect, will not alter significantly the tax considerations described in this discussion. No rulings have been sought or are expected to be sought from the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, with respect to any of the tax consequences discussed below and no assurances can be given that the IRS will not successfully assert contrary positions.

If an entity or an arrangement treated as a partnership (or other flow-through entity) for United States federal income tax purposes holds a Bond, the tax consequences to a partner or other owner of the entity will generally depend upon the status of the partner (or other owner) and the activities of such entity. Accordingly, this summary does not apply to partnerships (or other flow-through entities). Partners or other owners in an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership (or other flow-through entity) holding a Bond should consult their tax advisors regarding the United States federal income tax consequences to them of the acquisition, ownership and disposition by the partnership (or other flow-through entity) of the Bonds.

Pursuant to recently enacted legislation, an accrual method taxpayer that reports revenues on an applicable financial statement generally must recognize income for U.S. federal income tax purposes no later than the taxable year in which such income is taken into account as revenue in an applicable financial statement of the taxpayer. To the extent the recent legislation is inconsistent with the rules described below, the recent legislation supersedes

the rules described below. Thus, the recent legislation could potentially require such a taxpayer to recognize income for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to the Bonds prior to the time such income would be recognized pursuant to the rules described below. Potential investors in the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential applicability of the recent legislation to their investment in the Bonds.

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences that will generally apply to a U.S. Holder. As used herein, the term U.S. Holder means a beneficial owner of a Bond that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is:

In general, stated interest on a Bond will be taxed to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received, in accordance with the U.S. Holder’s regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

It is expected, and this discussion assumes, that the Bonds will not be issued with more than a de minimis amount of “original issue discount” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If, however, a Bond’s stated principal amount exceeds its issue price by an amount that is equal to or greater than a specified de minimis amount (1/4 of 1 percent (0.25%) of the stated principal amount multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity from the issue date), a U.S. Holder (whether a cash method or accrual basis taxpayer) will be required to include the excess in income as “original issue discount,” as it accrues, in accordance with a constant-yield-to-maturity method based on a compounding of interest, before the U.S. Holder receives cash payments attributable to this income (and a U.S. Holder’s tax basis should be increased by the amount of such accrued “original issue discount”).

Upon the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a Bond, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount realized on the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition (except to the extent the cash or property is attributable to accrued and unpaid stated interest, which will be treated as a payment of interest and taxed in the manner described above under “—Interest” to the extent not previously included in income) and (b) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Bond. In general, a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a Bond will be equal to the initial purchase price of the Bond paid by the U.S. Holder.

Gain or loss recognized on the sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of a Bond generally will be capital gain or loss, and generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition the Bond has been held for more than one year. For

individuals and other noncorporate U.S. Holders, the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses generally is taxed at a lower rate than ordinary income. The distinction between capital gain or loss and ordinary income or loss is also relevant for purposes of, among other things, limitations on the deductibility of capital losses.

A 3.8% tax is imposed on the “net investment income” (or “undistributed net investment income”, in the case of estates and trusts) of certain individuals, trusts and estates, if their adjusted gross income exceeds certain thresholds. In the case of an individual, the net investment income tax will be imposed on the lesser of (i) an individual’s “net investment income” and (ii) the amount by which an individual’s modified adjusted gross income exceeds $250,000 (if the individual is married and filing jointly or a surviving spouse), $125,000 (if the individual is married and filing separately) or $200,000 (in most other cases). In the case of an estate or trust, the tax will be imposed on the lesser of (i) undistributed “net investment income,” and (ii) the excess of adjusted gross income over the dollar amount at which the highest income tax bracket applicable to an estate or trust begins (for taxable years beginning in 2018, $12,500).

For these purposes, “net investment income” will generally include interest on and net gain attributable to the disposition of property (including interest paid on and gain from the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a Bond) unless the interest income is derived from, or the gain is with respect to property held for use in, a trade or business, other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities, and certain other types of income, reduced by permitted deductions properly allocable to the income or gain. Prospective U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the implications of this net investment income tax based upon their particular circumstances.

Information reporting requirements apply to interest and principal payments made to, and to the proceeds of sales or other dispositions before maturity by, certain noncorporate U.S. Holders. Generally, we must report annually to the IRS the amount of interest that we have paid to a U.S. Holder and the amount of tax that we withheld on that interest. In addition, backup withholding may be required on such payments unless a U.S. Holder furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number (which for an individual is generally the individual’s Social Security Number) and certifies on an IRS Form W-9, under penalties of perjury, that the U.S. Holder is not subject to backup withholding and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules or such U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

The current rate of backup withholding is 24 % of the amount paid (whether as interest, principal or gross proceeds from sale). Backup withholding generally does not apply with respect to payments made to certain exempt recipients, such as corporations and tax-exempt organizations. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under backup withholding rules will generally be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability, if any, or a refund may be obtained if amounts withheld exceed a U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability and such U.S. Holder timely provides the required information or appropriate claim form to the IRS.

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences that will generally apply to a Non-U.S. Holder. As used herein, the term Non-U.S. Holder means a beneficial owner of Bonds that is an individual, corporation, estate or trust (other than a grantor trust) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that is not a U.S. Holder.

Subject to the discussion below under “—Effectively Connected Income,” “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” and “—Foreign Account Tax Compliance,” all payments of interest on the Bonds made to a Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax, provided that: (i) such Non-U.S. Holder does not own, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote, (ii) such Non-U.S. Holder is not a “controlled foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is related, directly or indirectly, to us through stock ownership, (iii) such Non-U.S. Holder is not a bank receiving certain types of interest, and (iv) either (A) the Non-U.S. Holder certifies under penalties of perjury on IRS Form W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding), for individuals, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding), for entities, as appropriate (or a suitable substitute or applicable successor form) that it is not a United States person, (as defined in the Code) and provides its name, address, and U.S. taxpayer identification number, if any, or (B) a securities clearing organization, bank or other financial institution that holds customers’ securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business and holds the Bonds on behalf of the Non-U.S. Holder certifies under penalties of perjury that the certification referred to in clause (A) has been received from the Non-U.S. Holder, and furnishes a copy thereof.

A Non-U.S. Holder that does not qualify for exemption from withholding as described above, generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% on payments of interest on the Bonds. A Non-U.S. Holder may be entitled to the benefits of an income tax treaty under which interest on the Bonds is subject to a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax or is exempt from U.S. withholding tax, if the Non-U.S. Holder furnishes a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as appropriate (or a suitable substitute form or applicable successor form), claiming the reduction or exemption under the benefits of such income tax treaty and complies with any other applicable procedures.

Subject to the discussion below under “—Effectively Connected Income,” “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” and “—Foreign Account Tax Compliance,” a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on gain realized on the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of Bonds (except to the extent proceeds are attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, in which case the above rules regarding interest would apply) unless the Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met. If a Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note, then such Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to United States federal income tax at a flat rate of 30% (unless a lower rate applies under an applicable income tax treaty) on any such realized gain, which may be offset by capital losses allocable to sources within the United States.

If a Non-U.S. Holder is engaged in a trade or business in the United States, and if interest on the Bonds or gain realized on a taxable disposition of Bonds is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business (and, generally, if an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder), the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the U.S. federal withholding tax discussed above under “—Interest” (provided that the Non-U.S. Holder provides a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI or substantially similar substitute form). In addition, the Non-U.S. Holder, generally will be required to file a U.S. federal income tax return and generally will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax on such income or gain in the same manner as if it were a U.S. Holder (unless an applicable treaty

provides otherwise). In addition, if such Non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation, such Non-U.S. Holder may also be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate provided by an applicable income tax treaty) of a dividend equivalent amount deemed to have been remitted from the United States out of its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year.

The amount of interest paid to each Non-U.S. Holder and the tax withheld with respect to such interest, if any, will be reported annually to the IRS, even if such Non-U.S. Holder is exempt from the 30% withholding tax described above. Copies of the information returns reporting such interest and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder is a resident under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or information exchange agreement.

Information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding, generally will apply to interest paid with respect to and the proceeds of a disposition of Bonds effected within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries by a Non-U.S. Holder, unless the Non-U.S. Holder certifies under penalties of perjury that it is not a “United States person” as defined in the Code (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that it is a United States person) or otherwise establishes an exemption from such requirements.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own advisors regarding the application of U.S. federal withholding and backup withholding in their particular circumstance and the availability of, and procedure for, obtaining an exemption from, or refund of, withholding and backup withholding under the Code and current Treasury regulations.

Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as modified by U.S. Treasury regulations, guidance from the IRS and intergovernmental agreements and subject to further guidance (collectively, FATCA) impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on interest income from, and the gross proceeds from a disposition of, debt obligations, such as the Bonds, paid to certain foreign entities unless various information reporting and diligence requirements are satisfied. This would generally apply in the case of debt obligations held through intermediaries that do not agree to satisfy such information reporting requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which a U.S. Holder or a Non-U.S. Holder holds its Bonds will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. Under current IRS regulations and other guidance, FATCA applies to certain withholdable payments of interest to applicable non-compliant foreign entities and, after December 31, 2018, will apply to certain withholdable payments of gross proceeds arising from the disposition of debt instruments to applicable non-compliant foreign entities. We will not pay any additional amounts in respect of any amounts withheld under FATCA (or any other withholding tax provisions). Foreign entities located in jurisdictions that have entered into an intergovernmental agreement with the U.S. governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Prospective holders of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the implications of FATCA on their ownership and disposition of the Bonds.

The United States federal income tax discussion set forth above is included for general information only and may not be applicable depending upon a holder’s particular situation. Prospective holders of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to them of the ownership and disposition of Bonds, including the tax consequences under state, local, foreign and other tax laws, any applicable tax treaties and the possible effects of changes in United States or other tax laws.

We are selling the Bonds to the underwriters named in the table below pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated the date hereof, and each of the underwriters has severally agreed to purchase from us the respective amount of the Bonds set forth opposite its name below:

	Principal
Underwriter	Amount
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC	$	84,000,000
Mizuho Securities USA LLC		84,000,000
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC		84,000,000
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC		63,000,000
Santander Investment Securities Inc.		17,500,000
Samuel A. Ramirez & Company, Inc.		8,750,000
Siebert Cisneros Shank & Co., L.L.C.		8,750,000
Total	$	350,000,000

The obligations of the several underwriters to purchase the Bonds are subject to certain conditions as set forth in the underwriting agreement. The underwriters are obligated to purchase all of the Bonds if they purchase any of the Bonds. The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter defaults, the purchase commitments of the non-defaulting underwriter may be increased or the offering of Bonds may be terminated. The offering of the Bonds by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part.

We have agreed to indemnify the several underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute with respect to payments which the underwriters may be required to make in respect of any of those liabilities.

We expect to deliver the Bonds on or about the date specified on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, which will be the fifth business day following the date of this prospectus supplement (T + 5). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Bonds on the date of this prospectus supplement or the next two succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Bonds initially will settle in T + 5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.

The underwriters have advised us that they propose initially to offer the Bonds to the public at the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, and may offer the Bonds to dealers at that price less a concession not to exceed 0.390% of the principal amount of the Bonds. The underwriters may allow, and the dealers may re-allow, a discount not to exceed 0.250% of the principal amount of the Bonds. After the initial public offering, the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed.

Our expenses associated with the offer and sale of the Bonds, excluding the underwriting discount, are estimated to be approximately $500,000 and will be payable by us.

The Bonds are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the Bonds on any securities exchange. The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a market in the Bonds but are not obligated to do so and may discontinue such market-making activities at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to the maintenance of the trading market for, or the liquidity of, the Bonds, the ability of the holders to sell their Bonds or the price at which holders will be able to sell their Bonds.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the Bonds. These transactions may include purchases for the purpose of fixing or maintaining the price of the Bonds.

The underwriters may create a short position in the Bonds in connection with the offering. That means they sell a larger principal amount of the Bonds than is shown on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. If they create a short position, the underwriters may purchase Bonds in the open market to reduce the short position.

If the underwriters purchase the Bonds to stabilize the price or to reduce their short position, the price of the Bonds could be higher than it might be if they had not made such purchases. The underwriters make no representation or prediction about any effect that purchases may have on the price of the Bonds and any of such transactions may be discontinued at any time without notice.

The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the underwriters or their affiliates have repurchased Bonds sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, the underwriters and their respective affiliates have engaged and may in the future engage, in sales and trading, commercial banking, investment banking advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services and/or other transactions of a financial nature with us and our affiliates. Consequently, they have received, and in the future may continue to receive, customary fees and commissions for these services. The underwriters or their affiliates may provide credit to us or our affiliates as lenders from time to time, including under our existing revolving credit facility. In particular, the underwriters or their affiliates from time to time may hold our 7.75% first mortgage bonds due November 15, 2018, which will be refinanced at maturity with a portion of the net proceeds received by us from the sale of the Bonds. See “Use of Proceeds” in this prospectus supplement.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates has a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, such underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the Bonds offered

hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Bonds offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

The bonds are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, the expression “retail investor” means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (as amended, the “Insurance Mediation Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended, the “Prospectus Directive”).

Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the bonds or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the bonds or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

The Bonds may be sold only to purchasers purchasing, or deemed to be purchasing, as principal that are accredited investors, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), and are permitted clients, as defined in National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations. Any resale of the Bonds must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws.

Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if this prospectus (including any amendment thereto) contains a misrepresentation, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor.

Pursuant to section 3A.3 of National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting Conflicts (NI 33-105), the underwriters are not required to comply with the disclosure requirements of NI 33-105 regarding underwriter conflicts of interest in connection with this offering.

The Bonds may not be offered or sold by means of any document other than (i) in circumstances which do not constitute an offer to the public within the meaning of the Companies Ordinance (Cap.32, Laws of Hong Kong), or (ii) to “professional investors” within the meaning of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap.571, Laws of Hong Kong) and any rules made thereunder, or (iii) in other circumstances which do not result in the document being a “prospectus” within the meaning of the Companies Ordinance (Cap.32, Laws of Hong Kong), and no advertisement, invitation or document relating to the Bonds may be issued or may be in the possession of any person for the purpose of issue (in each case whether in Hong Kong or elsewhere), which is directed at, or the contents of which are likely to be accessed or read by, the public in Hong Kong (except if permitted to do so under the laws of Hong Kong) other than with respect to Bonds which are or are intended to be disposed of only to persons outside Hong Kong or only to “professional investors” within the meaning of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571, Laws of Hong Kong) and any rules made thereunder.

The Bonds have not been and will not be registered under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law of Japan (the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law) and each underwriter has agreed that it will not offer or sell any securities, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to, or for the benefit of, any resident of Japan (which term as used herein means any person resident in Japan, including any corporation or other entity organized under the laws of Japan), or to others for re-offering or resale, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to a resident of Japan, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of, and otherwise in compliance with, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law and any other applicable laws, regulations and ministerial guidelines of Japan.

This prospectus has not been registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Accordingly, this prospectus and any other document or material in connection with the offer or sale, or invitation for subscription or purchase, of the Bonds may not be circulated or distributed, nor may the Bonds be offered or sold, or be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore other than (i) to an institutional investor under Section 274 of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the “SFA”), (ii) to a relevant person, or any person pursuant to Section 275(1A), and in accordance with the conditions, specified in Section 275 of the SFA or (iii) otherwise pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provision of the SFA.

Where the Bonds are subscribed or purchased under Section 275 by a relevant person which is: (a) a corporation (which is not an accredited investor) the sole business of which is to hold investments and the entire share capital of which is owned by one or more individuals, each of whom is an accredited investor; or (b) a trust (where the trustee is not an accredited investor) whose sole purpose is to hold investments and each beneficiary is an accredited investor, shares, debentures and units of shares and debentures of that corporation or the beneficiaries’ rights and interest in that trust shall not be transferable for 6 months after that corporation or that trust has acquired the Bonds under Section 275 except: (1) to an institutional investor under Section 274 of the SFA or to a relevant person, or any person pursuant to Section 275(1A), and in accordance with the conditions, specified in Section 275 of the SFA; (2) where no consideration is given for the transfer; or (3) by operation of law.

The Bonds have not been and will not be registered with the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan pursuant to relevant securities laws and regulations and may not be sold, issued or offered within Taiwan through a public offering or in circumstances which constitutes an offer within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Act of Taiwan that requires a registration or approval of the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan. No person or entity in Taiwan has been authorized to offer, sell, give advice regarding or otherwise intermediate the offering and sale of the Bonds in Taiwan.

The Bonds may not be publicly offered in Switzerland and will not be listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange (“SIX”) or on any other stock exchange or regulated trading facility in Switzerland. Accordingly, this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus do not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of, and have been prepared without regard to the disclosure standards for issuance prospectuses under article 652a or article 1156 of the Swiss Code of Obligations or the disclosure standards for listing prospectuses under article 27 ff. of the SIX Listing Rules or the listing rules of any other stock exchange or regulated trading facility in Switzerland.

Neither this prospectus supplement nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the offering, the company or the Bonds have been or will be filed with or approved by any Swiss regulatory authority. In particular, this prospectus will not be filed with, and the offer of Bonds will not be supervised by, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority, and the offer of Bonds has not been and will not be authorized under the Swiss Federal Act on Collective Investment Schemes (the “CISA”). The investor protection afforded to acquirers of interests in collective investment schemes under the CISA does not extend to acquirers of the Bonds.

Ballard Spahr LLP, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, will render an opinion as to the validity of the Bonds for us, and certain legal matters will be passed on for the underwriters by Winston & Strawn LLP, Chicago, Illinois. Winston & Strawn LLP provides legal services to Exelon and its subsidiaries from time to time.

We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date as of which any such forward-looking statement is made.

Investing in the Securities involves various risks. You are urged to read and consider the risk factors described in (a) the combined Annual Reports on Form 10-K of Exelon, Generation, ComEd, PECO, BGE, Pepco, DPL and ACE as applicable, for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on February 13, 2017.

Each time one of the registrants sells securities, it will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and any prospectus supplement together with additional information described under “Where You Can Find More Information.”

We may sell the Securities offered (a) through agents; (b) by underwriters or dealers; (c) directly to one or more purchasers; or (d) through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

In some cases we may also repurchase the Securities and reoffer them to the public by one or more of the methods described above.

This prospectus may be used in connection with any offering of securities through any of these methods or other methods described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Any underwriter or agent involved in the offer and sale of the Securities will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Offered securities may be sold on a one time or a continuing basis by agents designated by the applicable registrant. The agents will use their reasonable efforts to solicit purchases for the period of their appointment under the terms of an agency agreement between the agents and the applicable issuer.

If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters may be designated by the applicable registrant or selected through a bidding process. The securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account. The underwriters may resell the Securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may sell the Securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the Securities will be subject to certain conditions. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the Securities of the series offered if any of the securities are purchased. Any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

Only underwriters named in the applicable prospectus supplement are deemed to be underwriters in connection with the Securities offered hereby.

If dealers are utilized in the sale of the Securities, the applicable registrant will sell the Securities to the dealers as principals. The dealers may then resell the Securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealers at the time of resale. The names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may also sell Securities directly to the public. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved.

We may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers by certain institutions to purchase Securities from us at the public offering price pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a later date or dates, all as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Each delayed delivery contract will be for an amount not less than, and the aggregate amount of the Securities shall be not less nor more than, the respective amounts stated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Such institutions may include commercial and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies, educational and charitable institutions, and other institutions, but will in all cases be subject to our approval. The delayed delivery contracts will not be subject to any conditions except:

Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, each series of the Securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than the common stock. Any common stock sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement or issuable upon conversion of another offered Security will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance. We may elect to list any of the other securities on an exchange, but are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in a series of the Securities, but no underwriter will be obligated to do so and any underwriter may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot predict the activity of trading in, or liquidity of, our Securities.

In connection with sales by an agent or in an underwritten offering, the SEC rules permit the underwriters or agents to engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the Securities. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters or agents of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchase in an offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Securities while an offering is in progress.

The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the underwriters have repurchased Securities sold by or for the account of that underwriter in stabilizing or short-covering transactions.

These activities by the underwriters may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities. As a result, the price of the Securities may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. These transactions may be effected on an exchange or automated quotation system, if the Securities are listed on that exchange or admitted for trading on that automated quotation system, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

We may from time to time, without the consent of the existing Security holders, create and issue further Securities having the same terms and conditions as the Securities being offered hereby in all respects, except for issue date, issue price and if applicable, the first payment of interest or dividends therein or other terms as noted in the applicable prospectus supplement. Additional Securities issued in this manner will be consolidated with, and will form a single series with, the previously outstanding securities.

Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the Securities may be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act of 1933, and any discounts or commissions received by them from us and any profit on the resale of the Securities by them may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

We may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute with respect to payments which the underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make.

Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us or our subsidiaries or affiliates in the ordinary course of their businesses.

Ballard Spahr LLP, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, will render an opinion as to the validity of the Securities for us.

Winston & Strawn LLP, Chicago, Illinois, will render an opinion as to the validity of the Securities for any underwriters, dealers, purchasers or agents. Winston & Strawn LLP provides legal services to Exelon and its subsidiaries from time to time.
