The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 I. Introduction and Summary The independent Nuclear Advisory Committee (the "NAC") was originally established through the execution of the Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, LLC

("CENG" or the "Company")1 Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (the "Agreement") dated November 6, 2009. Section 7.5 of the Agreement, as well as the Third and Fourth Amended and Restated Operating Agreements (dated March 12, 2012 and April 1, 2014, respectively), generally set forth the roles and responsibilities of the NAC from inception through 2015. 2,3 Based on the activities of the NAC during 2015 (through the date of this report),

the NAC advises the CENG Board of Directors (the "Board") and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the "NRC") that nothing came to the NAC' s attention that would cause the NAC to advise the Board or the NRC that either:

1. Additional measures should be taken to ensure that the Company is in compliance with U.S. laws and regulations regarding foreign ownership, control or domination of nuclear operations, or to ensure that a decision of a 1 The reference to CENG throughout this report is intended to include Constellation Energy Nuclear Group LLC, its subsidiaries and affiliates.

2 In accordance with the Agreement, the NAC issued two reports to the Board on December 15, 20 10 and December 14, 2011. In accordance with the Amended Agreement, the NAC issued two reports to the Board on December 17, 2012, and December 9, 2013. The NAC issued its initial report under the 2014 Amended Agreement on December 8, 2014.

3 The roles and responsibilities of the NAC, as well as the procedures for the conduct of the NAC's activities are generally set forth in the aforementioned operating agreements, and more specifically outlined in the NAC Charter that was in effect for 2015 (see Section Ill of this report for further discussion of the NAC Charter).

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 foreign government could not adversely affect or interfere with the reliable and safe operations of any nuclear assets of the Company; or,

2. Additional policies should be implemented to prudently assure the Company's continued compliance with provisions of U.S. law and regulations regarding (i) nuclear security plans, including physical security and cyber security; (ii) screening of nuclear personnel; (iii) protection of critical nuclear infrastructures; and (iv) U.S. export regulations.

In addition, the NAC did not identify any significant foreign ownership, control or domination matters that may have necessitated the NAC to report such matters directly to the NRC or any other governmental agency. Finally, the NAC did not identify any actions in which foreign interests exercised foreign ownership, control, or domination over the licensed activities of the Company's licensed entities, and that no action taken by a foreign interest involved with licensed activities was inimical to the common defense and security of the United States of America. 4 II. Scope of the Report Section 7.5 of the 2014 Fourth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (the "2014 Amended Agreement") describes the purpose and responsibilities of the NAC.

Specifically, the 2014 Amended Agreement calls for:

"At least annually, the NAC shall prepare a report and supporting documentation to be delivered to the Board of Directors, which report shall advise the Company 4 As of the date of this report, all CENG 2015 Board Resolutions (votes) were unanimously approved, negating the need for the Board Chairman's casting vote.

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 as to whether additional measures should be taken to ensure that the Company is in compliance with U.S. laws and regulations regarding foreign domination or control of nuclear operations and that a decision of a foreign government could not adversely affect or interfere with the reliable and safe operation of any nuclear assets of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates;" 5 "The NAC shall prepare an Annual Report regarding the status of foreign ownership, control, or domination of the licensed activities of power reactors under the control, in whole or part, of the Company. The Report shall be submitted to the NRC within 30 days after completion of the Report, or by January 31 of the year following the date of the Report (whichever occurs first)." 6 "Records of all votes by EDF, or its representatives, on the Company's Board of Directors and the use of the Chairman's casting vote will be sent to the NAC and shall be reviewed by the NAC to ensure that no foreign interests have exercised foreign ownership, control, or domination over the licensed activities of the Company's licensed entities, and that no action taken by a foreign interest involved with licensed activities is inimical to the common defense and security." 8 and, "The NAC will advise on and recommend appropriate additional policies to prudently assure the Company's continued compliance with provisions of U.S.

law and regulations regarding (i) nuclear security plans, including physical security and cyber security; (ii) screening of nuclear personnel; (iii) protection of critical nuclear infrastructures; and (iv) U.S. export regulations." 9 5 The Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, LLC, Fourth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2014, at p. 44.

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 This report to the Board and the NRC provides an overview of the activities of the NAC during 2015 (through the date of this report), as well as the observations of the NAC regarding any foreign ownership, control or domination ("FOCD") issues and the status of the Company's ability to respond to such issues.

The 2015 NAC reporting year was the first year that all operating, licensing and regulatory activities of the three CENG owned nuclear generating stations (the CENG stations") were the responsibility of Exelon Generation Company, LLC. ("ExGen"). 10 As a result of the integration of the CENG organization into the ExGen organization, the opportunity for a decision of a foreign government to influence the safe, secure and reliable operations of the CENG stations is limited. Therefore, the scope of the activities of the NAC has been adjusted to reflect the reduced risk of potential FOCD regarding the operations of the CENG stations.

10 Effective March 12, 2012, Constellation Energy Group, Inc. was merged into Exelon Corporation who transferred its ownership interest in CENG to Exelon Generation Company, LLC, (or ExGen) a wholly owned subsidiary of Exelon Corporation. The NRC approved ExGen's application to transfer the operating licenses for the CENG stations from CENG to ExGen in March 2014; ExGen assumed all operating, licensing and regulatory responsibilities for the CENG stations on April 1, 2014. In July 2014, all remaining CENG employees became employees of ExGen.

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 Ill. The 2015 CENG NAC Charter The NAC Charter that guided the activities of the NAC in 2015 is attached as Exhibit I to this Report. The Charter's key Operating Principles contain the same or very similar language as the 2014 Amended Agreement (as quoted above in Section II of this report). 11 However, the Charter also provides authority to the NAC to report directly to the NRC, or any other governmental agency, significant unresolved FOCD matters that may come to the NAC's attention. Specifically, the Charter states:

"If, in the course of executing its responsibilities, the Advisory Committee learns of unresolved significant matters resulting or that could result from, FOCD, and which are or could be at variance with U.S. law or regulation, or discovers unresolved significant matters that interfere or could interfere with the safe, secure and reliable operations of the nuclear assets of the company, its subsidiaries, or its affiliates, the Advisory Committee is authorized to report these matters directly to the NRC or other appropriate U.S. governmental agency without first seeking authorization from the Company to do so." 12 The NAC members for 2015 are Richard Meserve (Chairman) and James Asselstine. 13 11 The NAC Charter provisions which are similar to the provisions of the 2014 Amended Agreement are not duplicated in this section of the Report.

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 IV. The Foundation for the CENG NAC's Observations and Conclusions The observations and conclusions of the NAC contained in this report are primarily formulated from the information and analyses obtained from the following three sources. First, the NAC held two meetings during 2015.14 At each meeting the NAC received an update from CENG and ExGen management regarding the principal activities of the Company relating to operations, regulatory and legal matters. 15 The NAC also was provided a briefing of the activities of the Board and Board Committees, and the topics and issues considered by the Board during each 2015 Board meeting. The NAC also received regular presentations regarding fleet operations from the CENG Chief Nuclear Officer or representative. As a result of these discussions, the NAC asked the Company to either immediately respond to questions posed by the NAC during the meetings or provide additional information or analysis to the NAC for its continued consideration at future meetings. During each of the NAC meetings, CENG and ExGen 14 The dates of the 2015 NAC meetings were May 12th and October 131h. Additional activities of the NAC and the NAC advisors that assisted the NAC in developing the observations and conclusions presented herein are also described in this section of the report.

15 CENG and ExGen leadership from whom the NAC received briefings included Maria Korsnick, Bradley Fewell, Lisa Decker, Carol Peterson and George Gellrich. The topics of physical and cyber security, screening of nuclear personnel, the protection of critical nuclear infrastructures and the necessity of the Company's compliance with U.S.

export regulations were discussed as appropriate during the 2015 NAC meetings.

CENG Property-Private and For Prepared at the Request of Counsel The Use of CENG ONLY 8

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 management candidly and openly discussed various topics and activities of interest that had been identified by the members of the NAC and/or CENG and ExGen management.

The second source of information the NAC has considered in preparation of the 2015 report is the information the NAC members obtained when attending and observing the 2015 Board meetings. A member of the NAC attended each of the Board meetings (in person or by phone) between December 2014 and the date of this report. 16 In addition to providing relevant insights to the Board during those meetings, the NAC members reported their observations, conclusions and perceptions to the NAC at each subsequent NAC meeting. The knowledge gained at the Board meetings in tum enhanced the NAC's insight into important Company issues, the working relationships among Board members, and the working relationships among the Board and CENG and ExGen management personnel.

The final primary source of information the NAC has considered in formulating the conclusions presented herein is a limited review performed by Navigant Consulting Inc. ("NCI") 17 on behalf of the NAC concerning potential FOCD events. The NCI review 16 A member of the NAC is scheduled to attend the final 2015 Board meeting on December 81h.

17 Navigant Consulting Inc. is an international consulting finn. Senior members of this firm with significant nuclear power experience provided assistance to the NAC during 2015. A member of NCI also participated in each 2015 NAC meeting.

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 was performed primarily through discussions/interviews with CENG and ExGen management personnel on matters such as CENG operations, changes in operating practices and procedures, the operations of Board Committees, the potential for FOCD to occur, and other relevant topics. Additionally, NCI reviewed the Board Meeting Minutes and other relevant documents provided to the NAC by CENG and ExGen. NCI discussed the results of its review with the members of the NAC.

V. 2015 CENG Management Activities Reviewed by the NAC The NAC has completed its 2015 review of CENG management's activities. The briefings the NAC received throughout the year and the other sources of information obtained by the NAC as described above centered primarily on the operations of CENG, the CENG stations, and the activities of the Board.

The CENG Independent Nuclear Advisory Committee 2015 Annual Report December 8, 2015 Also at each meeting, a member of the ExGen General Counsel's office provided the NAC with legal analysis as to any potential FOCD issues, domestic import and export regulation matters, and the impact of other applicable laws and regulations on the activities of CENG. ExGen General Counsel's office advised the NAC of any actual or pending changes in FOCD related laws and regulations during 2015 for the NAC members' consideration in completion of their 2015 activities. As an example, the NAC was updated on the regulatory history of the South Texas Project's Combined Operating CENG Property-Private and For Prepared at the Request of Counsel The Use of CENG ONLY 12

The NAC was also briefed on the NRC' s approval for the revision of the FOCD Standard Review Plan, including revised negation action plan criteria. CENG and ExGen personnel agreed to bring any additional developments related to these or other NRC FOCD policy issues to the attention of the NAC on a timely basis.

VI. Conclusions and Observations The NAC has completed its responsibilities to the CENG Board under the 2014 Amended Agreement and the NAC Charters for 2015. Those responsibilities generally include determining whether additional measures need to be undertaken by CENG to: 1) ensure the Company's compliance with U.S. laws and regulations regarding FOCD over the nuclear assets of the Company19 and 2) ensure that action by a foreign government would not adversely impact the reliable and safe operation of the Company's nuclear assets. Based on the work undertaken by the NAC during 2015, the NAC finds that nothing has come to our attention that would require the Company to take additional measures to ensure compliance with U.S. laws and regulations regarding FOCD over the CENG stations (the nuclear assets) or the reliable and safe operation of those nuclear 19 The NAC conclusions and observations also specifically apply to the U.S . laws and regulations regarding nuclear security plans, screening of nuclear personnel, the protection of critical nuclear infrastructure and U.S. export regulations.

Also, the NAC has not identified any significant matter or matters that could potentially affect the safe, secure, or reliable operation of the Company's nuclear assets that would require an independent reporting to the NRC or another U.S. governmental agency. 20 Finally, the NAC reviewed the records of all 2015 CENG Board votes and did not identify any actions where foreign interests exercised foreign ownership, control or domination over the licensed activities of the Company's licensed entities, and that no action taken by a foreign interest involved with licensed activities was inimical to the common defense and security of the licensed entities. 21 As noted above, the managements of CENG and ExGen have regularly brought significant or material issues related to the NAC's Charter to the NAC for its review, consideration, and evaluation. The NAC remains sensitive and alert to the possibility that the concerns of the CENG parents over CENG operating and financial performance could result in unintended influences on the operations of the existing CENG nuclear assets. As a result, the NAC has requested that it be advised in a timely fashion by 20It should be noted that the determination of the significance of a potential FOCD matter remains with the experience and judgment of the NAC and its evaluation of the matter. The facts, circumstances, risks, and numerous other issues associated with such a matter would need to be fully reviewed by the NAC to determine the significance of the matter and the need for reporting to the NRC or another governmental agency.

21 During 2015 and through the date of this report, all Board Resolutions (votes) were unanimously approved, negating the need for the Board Chairman's casting vote.

The NAC urges management to continue to be sensitive to the issues of interest to the NAC and to continue to bring potentially relevant issues to the NAC's attention as the NAC continues to execute its FOCD oversight responsibilities for the Board and the NRC. The NAC is pleased with both the responsiveness of management to the NAC's issues of interest and the full and constructive support that CENG and ExGen managements have provided to the NAC throughout the year.

The principal purposes of the Advisory Committee are to:

• Provide transparency to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") and other U.S.

government authorities regarding issues related to foreign ownership, control or influence

("FOCI") over nuclear operations planned and conducted by the Company.

• Advise and make recommendations to the Company's Board of Directors ("Board of Directors") whether measures additional to those already in place should be taken to ensure that i) the Company is in compliance with U.S. laws and regulations regarding FOCI including those related to non-proliferation and fuel cycle matters, and ii) action by a foreign government or foreign corporation could not adversely affect or interfere with the reliable and safe operations of the nuclear assets of the Company its subsidiaries and affiliates (i and ii, collectively, the "Foreign Control Compliance Matters"), and to provide reports and supporting documentation to the Board of Directors and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission relating to such Foreign Control Compliance Matters on at least an annual basis.

Operating Principles The Advisory Committee is non-voting and strictly advisory in nature. Responsibility for the management of the Company's business and affairs rests solely with the Board of Directors, to whom the Advisory Committee reports.

The Advisory Committee shall deliver an annual--or more frequent if deemed necessary by either the Advisory Committee or Board of Directors-report and supporting documentation to the Board of Directors regarding Foreign Control Compliance Matters that advises the Company whether additional measures should be taken to ensure:

• The adequacy of measures taken by the Company to continue to comply with U.S. laws and regulations regarding FOCI of the Company, and over the nuclear assets of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates, focusing on i) nuclear security plans, including physical security and cyber security; ii) screening of nuclear personnel; iii) protection of critical nuclear infrastructure; and iv) U.S. export regulations; and CENG Property-Private and For Prepared at the Request of Counsel The Use ofCENG ONLY 17

• The adequacy of measures taken by the Company to ensure that a decision by a foreign government or foreign corporation could not adversely affect or interfere with the reliable and safe operations of the nuclear assets of the Company, its subsidiaries, or its affiliates; In evaluating the above Foreign Control Compliance Matters, the Advisory Committee will consider, inter alia, the following:

• All U.S. laws and regulations relating to U.S. control of nuclear facilities owned by the Company;

• All aspects of FOCI that could adversely affect the safe or reliable operation of a nuclear facility including, but not limited to:

o Implementation or compliance with any NRC generic letter, bulletin, order, confirmatory order, or similar requirement issued by the NRC; o Prevention or mitigation of a nuclear event or incident or the unauthorized release of radioactive material; o Placement of a plant in a safe condition following any nuclear event or incident; o Compliance with the Atomic Energy Act, the Energy Reorganization Act, or any NRC rule; o The obtaining of or compliance with a specific license issued by the NRC and its technical specifications; and o Compliance with a specific Final Safety Analysis Report, or other licensing basis document.

• All aspects of FOCI that could adversely affect the security of a nuclear facility including, but not limited to, those aspects under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Department of Justice, and the NRC.

• Records of all votes by EDF Inc., or its representatives, on the Board of Directors and the use of the Chairman's casting vote to ensure that no foreign interests have exercised foreign ownership, control, or domination over the activities of the Company's NRC-licensed facilities, and that no action taken by a foreign interest involved with the licensed activities is inimical to the common defense and security of the United States.

If, in the course of executing its responsibilities, the Advisory Committee learns of unresolved significant matters resulting or that could result from FOCI, and which are or could be at variance with U.S. law or regulation, or discovers unresolved significant matters that interfere or could interfere with the safe, secure and reliable operations of the nuclear assets of the Company, its subsidiaries, or its affiliates, the Advisory Committee is authorized to report these matters directly CENG Property-Private and For Prepared at the Request of Counsel The Use of CENG ONLY 18
