Confidential Information shall not include:


	
 
	
25.2.1
	
Information lawfully known to Receiving Party or independently developed without reference to Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information prior to the performance of such Work other than through other work with or for the Disclosing Party; or





	
 
	
25.2.2
	
Information that is publicly disclosed through no act of Receiving Party, Subcontractors or any of their respective employees, either prior or subsequent to Disclosing Party’s disclosures of such information to Receiving Party.




25.3 Receiving Party’s Obligations.

During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, except as a Disclosing Party may otherwise authorize in writing in advance, each Receiving Party shall use the other Party’s Confidential Information only to fulfill its commitments and exercise its rights under this Agreement. Each Receiving Party agrees not to disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party to anyone other than those employees, agents, contractors or Subcontractors of the Receiving Party who need to know such Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement and who have entered into binding written obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to the obligations set forth herein. Upon reasonable request by the Disclosing Party, the receiving Party will provide copies of the confidentiality agreements entered into with its employees, agents or contractors. Each Receiving Party shall treat all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party with the degree of care it accords to its own Confidential Information, but not less than reasonable care. Neither Receiving Party shall reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile any prototypes, firmware, software or other tangible objects which embody the other Party’s Confidential Information. Each Receiving Party will notify and cooperate with the other Party in enforcing the Disclosing Party’s rights if such Receiving Party becomes aware of a threatened or actual violation of the confidentiality requirements of this Section. Upon completion of Work pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Receiving Party shall return any and all tangible embodiments of Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party promptly following the request of the Disclosing Party.

25.4 Disclosure Pursuant to Court Order.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that disclosure is required by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, or by any entity that regulates ComEd (whether or not a Governmental Authority) provided that Receiving Party shall provide notice to Disclosing Party of the request for such disclosure promptly upon receiving it and that Receiving Party shall fully cooperate with Disclosing Party in any effort by Disclosing Party to secure a protective order against such disclosure.

25.5 Irreparable Harm.

Receiving Party acknowledges that the breach of any of the covenants contained in this Article 25 will result in irreparable harm and continuing damages to Disclosing Party and Disclosing Party’s business, and that Disclosing Party’s remedy at law for any such breach or threatened breach would be inadequate. Accordingly, in addition to such remedies as may be available to Disclosing Party at law or in equity in the event of any such breach, Disclosing Party may seek, subject to the venue requirements of Section 27.10, the issuance of an injunction (both preliminary and permanent), without bond or necessity of proving monetary or quantifiable damages, enJommg and restricting the breach or threatened breach of any such covenant, including an injunction restraining the Receiving Party from disclosing, in whole or in part, any Confidential Information. Receiving Party shall pay all of Disclosing Party’s costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and accountants’ fees, incurred in enforcing such covenants.

Contractor will immediately notify ComEd if Contractor becomes aware of any use or disclosure of ComEd Data that is not permitted by the Agreement. Contractor may not use or disclose ComEd Data for any purpose other than to provide the Products or render the Services, without the written consent of ComEd.

Contractor shall provide assistance reasonably requested by ComEd or such third party in the performance of such audit. Any Personal Identifying Information or ComEd Data that is collected or obtained by Contractor must be stored and transmitted in encrypted or otherwise secure form, to be described in greater detail in the Specifications. In the event of a breach of security of any system, website, database, equipment or storage medium or facility that results in unauthorized access to Personal Identifying Information or ComEd Data by any third party (including any employee or subcontractor of Contractor that is not authorized to access such information), Contractor shall notify ComEd immediately and make best efforts to re-secure its systems immediately. If directed to do so by ComEd, Contractor shall assist ComEd in whatever way ComEd may request in notifying any consumers whose Personal Identifying Information may have been breached or otherwise put at risk. In no event shall any message or communication, whether by mail, email or ComEd support scripts, regarding data security, go to consumers without the review and approval of ComEd; provided that Contractor shall issue such communications as ComEd may direct, provided such communications are reasonably acceptable to Contractor. In the event that Contractor becomes aware of a reasonable likelihood of a breach of, or imminent threat to the security measures of the System or Software, Contractor shall provide immediate written notice to ComEd detailing the threat or breach and efforts to remediate such threat or breach.  Contractor shall keep ComEd apprised of all efforts to eliminate or mitigate all such security risks.

Upon ComEd’s request and upon reasonable prior notice to Contractor, Contractor will provide or permit periodic security audits, at ComEd’s expense, of its access system and methods and will change authentication elements periodically to maintain the integrity and security of Contractor’s access. Contractor shall provide assistance reasonably requested by ComEd in the performance of such audit.

MESSAGE FROM THE CEO

Our Vision is to become the very best electric and gas company in the United States. To realize our Vision, we must commit ourselves not only to safety, accountability, and continuous improvement, but to the highest ethical standards.

The business prospects of our Company are excellent, and the foundation that we build on is very strong. That foundation comes from the people of ComEd, and from the service that we have provided to our customers, communities and employees. We are regarded as honest and caring, but disciplined, business people who are involved in providing essential services to major urban populations. We can be successful only if we employ an engaged workforce that best serves our diverse communities. And to meet the high standards set by our Company, we must conduct our operations safely and be leaders in developing solutions to our industry’s environmental challenges.

Because our business involves services that are central to citizens in their every day lives and necessary for businesses to operate productively in the nation’s economy, our operations are closely reviewed by governmental officials at the local, county, state and national level. Likewise, individuals and institutions have invested billions of dollars in our business with the expectation that we will honestly and productively use this capital to profitably operate our company and increase shareholder value.

We will be successful if we operate our Company, employ our people and finance our business in accordance with the highest ethical standards and with the law. We will destroy shareholder value if we do not. Our Exelon Code of Conduct provides the outline of what is expected of all of us to meet our important obligations, and gives us resources to understand these requirements and live up to them.

Please read this Code carefully, and ask your supervisor or the Ethics and Compliance Office if you have any questions. Our Company’s success depends on each of us living up to these standards. I commit to you that I will do so. I expect no less from each and every one of you.

INTRODUCTION

Using This Guide

The success of Exelon Corporation, including its subsidiaries (“ComEd” or the “Company”), is dependent on all of us conducting our activities in accordance with the highest ethical standards and applicable law. This Exelon Code of Business Conduct (“Code”) reflects our core value of integrity and is the statement of our required behavioral standards. The Code may, in some instances, set performance levels or expectations that are more stringent than required by law. They are nonetheless required. ComEd recognizes that such enhanced performance fosters compliance with law and provides a platform for our Company to be successful in the eyes of our customers, employees and investors.

The Code does not cover all situations where questions of ethics may arise. That would be virtually impossible to do. It enables you to identify situations that may raise ethical and legal issues, and is designed to help you learn what to do whenever you have a question or concern about what conduct the Company expects from you. All employees are held accountable for following the Code and it is important that you take the time to read it from cover to cover.

To assist with your understanding, described below is the purpose of each section of the Code.

1. The message from the CEO explains the importance of ComEd’s commitment to the Company’s core value of integrity.

2. The Introduction explains the accountability that all employees have for complying with the Company’s policies and for raising concerns about possible violations of law or policy.

3. The ComEd ethical and legal business standards follow the Introduction. For each standard there is an “Overview,” which generally describes the standard, and the “Main Obligations” which are the core requirements under each standard. In some cases, there are also examples of “Things to Watch Out For,” which are circumstances that should alert you to a potential ethical or legal issue.

4. For each standard, there are ComEd policies that provide additional detail. The complete and latest text of the related ComEd policies are found on the ComEd Intranet Website. You should read the policies and talk to your manager to understand how the ethics standards and supporting Company policies apply to your job.

5. The ComEd Ethics Principles, stated below, are the framework from which the behavioral standards described in the Code are developed. They are your guideposts for understanding what acting with integrity looks like, in other words, how the Company expects that each employee will, at all times, conduct the Company’s business.

ComEd Ethics Principles


	
 
	
·
	
Obey the applicable laws and regulations governing our business conduct.





	
 
	
·
	
Be honest, fair and trustworthy in all your ComEd activities and relationships.





	
 
	
·
	
Foster an atmosphere in which fair employment practices extend to every member of the diverse ComEd community.





	
 
	
·
	
Strive to create a safe workplace and to protect the environment.





	
 
	
·
	
Avoid all conflicts of interest between work and personal affairs.





	
 
	
·
	
Through leadership at all levels, sustain a culture where ethical conduct is recognized, valued and exemplified by all employees.




Who Must Follow the ComEd Code of Business Conduct

ComEd directors, officers and employees

The ComEd Code applies to all directors, officers, and employees of the Company.

Subsidiaries

An ComEd subsidiary may supplement this Code, as necessary, with its own implementing policies.

 



 

Third parties

All ComEd businesses must ensure that, either through contractual provisions or certification, others representing ComEd - such as consultants, agents, sales representatives, distributors, vendors, suppliers and independent contractors (“Suppliers”) - agree to follow applicable ComEd ethical and legal standards.

Supervisors and employees must:


	
 
	
·
	
Identify those persons and companies outside ComEd whose activities on behalf of ComEd may involve issues covered by the ComEd Code.





	
 
	
·
	
Require those persons and companies to agree to comply with relevant aspects of the ComEd Code.





	
 
	
·
	
Provide those persons and companies with appropriate education on the requirements imposed.





	
 
	
·
	
Take necessary action, up to and including terminating a contract with anyone representing ComEd, if the person fails to honor his or her agreement to abide by the ComEd Code.




Other Codes of Conduct

Since we operate in a heavily regulated industry, there may be other codes of conduct that apply to specific aspects of our business, for example the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Standards of Conduct. Please note that all references to the Code in this document, unless otherwise stated, mean this Code of Business Conduct, which applies across ComEd and its subsidiaries.

CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP AND THE COMED COMMUNITY

Fair Treatment and Diversity

It is ComEd’s policy to provide equal employment opportunity and fair treatment for everyone. Whenever and wherever individuals engage in activities on behalf of the Company, they have a right to be free from prohibited discrimination. We will also actively seek to build an inclusive workforce. Our diverse employees are a competitive advantage, enabling us to make more informed business decisions and to better serve our diverse customer base. We are also committed to diversity in regard to our suppliers. Embracing diversity is not simply the right thing to do; it makes good business sense.

Verbal or physical conduct by any employee that relates to characteristics protected by law and disrupts another’s work performance or creates an intimidating, offensive, abusive, or hostile work environment will not be tolerated. The Company will conduct a prompt investigation of any reported harassment. Appropriate corrective action will be taken where prohibited harassment has occurred.

Avoid any activity, interest or association that could compromise the independent exercise of your judgment in the best interests of the Company

Gifts and Gratuities

To maintain unquestioned integrity in our business relationships, we must avoid being placed in an embarrassing position that might make it difficult to carry out our duties impartially.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Employees, including members of their immediate families, may neither offer or give to, nor request or accept from a customer or any entity with which the Company does business, or is likely to do business a thing of value such as cash, bonuses, fees, commissions, gifts, gratuities, favors, loans, private or personal discounts (“Gifts”)

Understand that mementos, advertising novelties and souvenirs of a modest value customarily associated with legitimate business relationships, or other gratuities or things of similar value are not considered Gifts and are excluded from these restrictions

Do not accept any business courtesy that might be perceived as a bribe or payoff





	
 
	
·
	
Decline any offers of lavish meals, entertainment or business events

·
	
Avoid the offer or acceptance of frequent meals and entertainment from a continuing business Supplier

Outside Activities

ComEd employees actively offer their time and talents to serve in public office and other positions in the community. ComEd supports the involvement of employees in the service to their communities since these activities are consistent with the Company’s strongly held core value of corporate citizenship. Likewise, employees may in some instances take on a second job with another business organization. Employees must ensure, however, that these outside activities do not exploit or conflict with their employment with ComEd or create or result in any conflict or appearance of conflict with the Company’s interests.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Employees should report to their manager any public office or position they hold, disclose the potential for any conflict or appearance of any conflict to interested parties (including the Company), and disqualify themselves from Company decisions affecting their public or political constituency as well as any decisions in their public or political role that affect the Company

One of ComEd’s most valuable assets is information. Our confidential information assets consist of information or knowledge, regardless of form, that ComEd considers private, that is not common knowledge outside the business or required by law or contract to be maintained as confidential, which might be of use to competitors or harmful to ComEd, if disclosed (“Confidential Information”). It is information or knowledge that a ComEd business develops or pays to have developed and to which ComEd has an exclusive right. Confidential Information that has commercial value to competitors or other entities that want to do business with ComEd is sometimes referred to as “proprietary information” or a “trade secret.” Examples of Confidential Information include information about ComEd facilities; systems; operations; finances; customers; suppliers; employees; business concepts and strategies; investment plans; development or construction plans; and marketing plans.

Main Obligations

Records Management

ComEd’s Records Management Corporate Policy and Procedure (Records Management Policy) provides the guidance required for the identification, management and maintenance of records required to conduct the Company’s business, as well as the guidance required to ensure the consistent and documented destruction of such records. Records for purposes of this provision include any documentary material or information created or received in the ordinary course of business, regardless of the specific nature, medium or form, including paper, photograph, microfilm, electronic, digital, audio or other media.

If there is any question as to whether a particular record should be maintained, seek guidance from the Corporate Secretary’s Office or the Legal Department as to its destruction.

Computer and Electronic Information Security

ComEd’s computer, telecommunications and other electronic information resources are Company Assets. They consist of all of the Company’s information technology infrastructure and applications such as computer hardware, software applications, networks, e-mail and voice mail systems. If employees remotely access ComEd systems or access third party systems through ComEd systems, the access also belongs to ComEd (collectively “Computer and Information Resources”).

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Use Computer and Information Resources only for Company business purposes and for the exclusive use of employees and authorized suppliers and their employees





	
 
	
·
	
Incidental personal use of these resources may be permitted so long as the use is reasonable and does not interfere with work responsibilities or expose ComEd to potential liability





	
 
	
·
	
Safeguard the integrity and confidentiality of Computer and Information Resources by protecting passwords, IDs and access only by authorized persons

·
	
Employees should have no expectation of privacy while using Computer and Information Resources. ComEd reserves the right to monitor and restrict access to non-business related Internet sites and to refuse delivery of prohibited electronic messages or materials, as described above

Internal Controls

Management is accountable for establishing and maintaining a system of internal controls within an organization. Internal controls are those structures, activities, processes, and systems that help management effectively mitigate the risks to an organization’s achievement of objectives. Management is also accountable for the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act, this accountability encompasses ensuring there is clear, complete, fair and accurate reporting of financial and non-financial information pertaining to business transactions. Management is charged with this accountability on behalf of the organization’s stakeholders and is held accountable for this accountability by the ComEd Board of Directors.

ComEd is committed to conducting its business with governmental agencies and officials consistent with the highest ethical standards and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and rules. ComEd is also committed to cooperating with governmental enforcement investigators and law enforcement officials. Employees are free to speak to law enforcement officials in any matter, but are urged to contact the Legal Department whenever they are contacted by such officials regarding matters pertaining to ComEd business.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Cooperate with governmental agencies and officials in a straightforward manner and exercise the utmost integrity at all times in conducting business with such agencies and officials

Political Contributions and Lobbying

Personal Contributions

Employees have the right to participate in the political process and to engage in political activities of their own choosing. While involved in personal civic and political affairs, employees must make clear that their views and actions are their own, and not those of ComEd. If you have questions regarding personal political contributions or other personal political activity, seek guidance from the Legal Department, Government Affairs, or the Ethics and Compliance Office.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Employees may not solicit contributions from other employees for personal political purposes on Company time and may not require other employees, including secretarial or other support staff, to perform tasks in support of an employee’s personal political activities





	
 
	
·
	
Employees may use an insignificant amount of Company resources, such as phones, fax machines or office supplies for their personal political purposes, where state law permits





	
 
	
·
	
Employees may make personal political contributions, but will not be reimbursed for such contributions by the Company




13



 

Corporate Contributions and Lobbying

Federal law places limits on a corporation’s ability to participate fully in the political process, especially by imposing prohibitions on corporations from making contributions of any kind to a candidate, political party, or political committee in connection with a federal election. Some states impose similar restrictions on making corporate contributions and conducting activities to support state or local candidates. Certain limited activities, including political action committees and lobbying, are allowed and should be coordinated by Governmental Affairs. If you have questions regarding corporate contributions or lobbying, seek guidance from the Legal Department, Government Affairs, or the Ethics and Compliance Office.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Employees who do not have policymaking, managerial, professional or supervisory responsibilities may not ever be solicited for federal political contributions





	
 
	
·
	
Since some states where we operate allow corporations to participate more broadly in the political process than others, decisions with respect to making corporate contributions and conducting activities to support state or local candidates or campaigns should be reviewed in advance with Government Affairs, the Legal Department or the Ethics and Compliance Office





	
 
	
·
	
Certain management level employees at ComEd and its subsidiaries can use Company-connected Political Action Committees (PACs) to participate in political matters, and can be approached at work to contribute to PACs; employee contributions to any Company-connected PAC are strictly voluntary





	
 
	
·
	
Employees should not provide any gift to governmental officials, or contact a government official on behalf of the Company unless they are specifically authorized to do so by Government Affairs and have met any governmental registration or reporting requirements




14



 

LEGAL AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

Senior Officers

In addition to all other provisions of the Code, ComEd’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other senior officers must adhere to and advocate certain principles in connection with discharging their responsibilities:

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Act honestly and ethically, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between their personal (including those of family members) and professional relationships

Insider Trading or Dealing and Stock Tipping

ComEd is committed to fair and open markets for buying and selling its public securities. Federal law prohibits employees from buying or selling any Company equity or debt security based on material information obtained in the course of employment if the information is not available to the general public (“Inside Information”). Material information is information (whether favorable or unfavorable) that a reasonable investor would consider important in deciding whether to buy, sell or hold a security of the Company. ComEd’s policy requires full compliance with applicable laws and avoiding even the appearance of insider trading, insider dealing or tipping.

Insider trading or dealing means buying or selling stock or any securities while in possession of inside information about the Company. Stock tipping means disclosing Inside Information about ComEd or any other company to another person to enable that person to buy or sell stock or other securities on the basis of such information.

Employees with questions should consult with the Corporate Secretary or the Ethics and Compliance Office.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Never buy, sell or trade the stock or securities of the Company while you have Inside Information about the Company





	
 
	
·
	
Abstain from buying, selling or trading securities of all companies until the Inside Information has been publicly available for at least two full NYSE trading days





	
 
	
·
	
Also abstain from making buy or sell recommendations to anyone else while in possession of Inside Information





	
 
	
·
	
Only disclose Inside Information within the ordinary course of ComEd business and only to those who have a clear need to know





	
 
	
·
	
Members of the Board of Directors, officers and certain designated employees are required to obtain approval from the Office of the Corporate Secretary prior to any purchase or sale of ComEd stock

SEC Code of Professional Conduct

The SEC has established a code of professional conduct applicable to attorneys who advise the Company on matters that may relate to the Company’s SEC filings. The rules require the Company’s attorneys to report up-the-ladder within the Company evidence of wrongdoing by the Company or its Directors, employees or agents. ComEd has adopted a policy to assist its attorneys to understand and comply with the SEC’s rules.

Affiliate Non-discrimination

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the state utility commissions in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Illinois have adopted regulations governing the business dealings between utility subsidiaries of ComEd Energy Delivery Company (collectively referred to as “EED”) and its affiliates to ensure that resources and assets of the regulated businesses of the Company are not used to subsidize or give an unfair advantage to other lines of the Company’s business. Employees must comply with all of these regulations and similar Tariff provisions applicable to business conducted by the utilities. Some examples of these include: the FERC Standards of Conduct, the Pennsylvania Code of Conduct, the Illinois Affiliate Non­Discrimination Rules and the New Jersey Affiliate Standards Rules.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
EED’s transmission operation must function independently from the operations of any of its affiliates





	
 
	
·
	
Employees may not give non-public information regarding EED’s market or its transmission and distribution systems to any third parties, including affiliates, on a preferential basis





	
 
	
·
	
Employees may not give preferential treatment regarding EED customer leads or transmission and distribution systems to any seller of electric energy natural gas or energy services, whether an affiliate or a competitor





	
 
	
·
	
EED customer information may be provided to third parties, including affiliates, only with the written consent of the customer





	
 
	
·
	
EED employees may not provide leads, preferences or similar benefits designed to provide a competitive advantage for any competitive business segment of EED or any affiliate





	
 
	
·
	
Costs must be appropriately charged or allocated between the regulated and other business functions of EED and between EED and its affiliates




If you are uncertain about these regulations or have questions regarding their implementation or interpretation, contact the Legal Department for guidance.

Energy Trading Rules

ComEd is committed to lawful and ethical practices in connection with conducting all of the Company’s businesses. The Company’s electric power and gas supply and trading operations have a special set of rules that must be followed.

Making trades that are not properly and promptly recorded, or are expected in a non-conventional manner (i.e., cell phone versus recorded line)




Antitrust and Unfair Competition

Antitrust laws promote, preserve and protect competition and are a critical part of the environment in which ComEd operates. Violations of competition laws may expose ComEd and individual employees to criminal and or civil liability and associated penalties, including monetary damages, fines and even imprisonment.

Antitrust laws are complex. They generally prohibit joint action that restrains competition, as well as improper unilateral action that either propels one competitor into a monopoly position in the market or seriously threatens to do so. Other aspects of the antitrust laws prohibit certain types of discrimination in pricing and unfair trade practices. Employees who interact with customers, competitors or suppliers and anyone who believes that he or she is dealing with a situation that might have antitrust implications, should consult with the Legal Department or the Ethics and Compliance Office.

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) has two main provisions. The anti-bribery provision makes it a crime to promise or give anything of value to foreign governmental or political officials or their agents to obtain or retain business, obtain any improper advantage or otherwise influence their judgment in the performance of official duties.

The FCPA also requires that publicly held companies, like ComEd, maintain accurate books, records and accounts and devise a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that, among other things, the Company’s books and records fairly and accurately reflect business activities and transactions. It is ComEd policy to present financial statements fairly and accurately and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Sales and Marketing Competitive Practices

While information about our competitors is a valuable asset, federal law and our Code require that we obtain this information legally.

Main Obligations


	
 
	
·
	
Do not solicit or accept trade secrets or other competitive information about a competitor that you know to be confidential or proprietary or know to have been obtained through unlawful means





	
 
	
·
	
Do not make misrepresentations in connection with collecting competitive intelligence





	
 
	
·
	
Do not solicit a competitor’s or supplier’s past or present employees to induce disclosures of proprietary information from them

CODE OF CONDUCT PROCESSES AND RESOURCES

Waivers

A waiver of any provision of the Code will be made only in exceptional circumstances for substantial cause. Requests for waivers must be submitted to the Corporate General Counsel, or his or her designee, for review and resolution. Any request for a waiver by any Director or Executive Officer must be submitted to the Board of Directors or a Board Committee. All waivers will be reported to the ComEd Ethics and Compliance Council. In addition, any waiver of a provision in the Code for any Director or Executive Officer will be disclosed to stockholders.

Certification of Compliance

Directors and non-represented employees and, in certain instances, independent contractors must complete each year a certification of compliance questionnaire. A completed certification questionnaire is a condition of employment for all non-represented employees. Directors will certify compliance with the Code in connection with the completion of their annual questionnaire.

Independent contractors required to complete the questionnaire are those who have access to Confidential Information, as defined in the Code, or those engaged in contract administration activities for ComEd such as verification of services and review and approval of invoices. The certification questionnaire is an acknowledgement of understanding and a self­assessment of Code compliance.

The certification questionnaire is administered on a confidential basis by the Ethics and Compliance Office. Exceptions that identify suspected violations of the law or this Code will be managed in accordance with the provisions stated below in “Reporting and Investigating Violations.”

Reporting and Investigating Violations

ComEd’s success in achieving legal and ethical compliance depends on each employee not only conducting his or her responsibilities in accordance with the law and the Code, but also by reporting matters that raise compliance or ethics issues.

Employees must report potential violations of the law or the Code by using one of the resources described in this section. Employees may be disciplined up to and including discharge for the failure to report a Code violation where they have a reasonable basis to know that a violation is occurring or has occurred. Employees who knowingly submit false reports will be subject to disciplinary action. If an employee self-reports wrongdoing, it will be a factor considered by management in connection with any discipline imposed for a violation of the law or the Code.

All reports alleging violations of the law or the Code will be treated confidentially to the extent possible under the circumstances. A prompt, thorough and independent investigation will be conducted of reported concerns. Employees are required to cooperate in any investigation of a compliance or ethics concern. Reported concerns regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters will be reported to the Audit Committee of ComEd’s Board of Directors.

If an investigation discloses the need for corrective action, ComEd will implement appropriate corrective action to prevent recurrence.

The Ethics and Compliance Office

Because compliance and high standards of ethical behavior are important to the Company, employees must have access to additional guidance from a knowledgeable person when circumstances require. ComEd is committed to providing employees with the resources necessary to help them understand the Code, resolve compliance and ethics questions and report any compliance or ethics concerns. In this regard, ComEd employees have several options.

Managers and supervisors are an initial source of guidance for employees and an appropriate channel for questions or reporting compliance or ethics concerns. Each employee is encouraged to contact his or her manager or supervisor to discuss issues of interpretation or to report concerns with respect to compliance with the law or the Code.

The Ethics and Compliance Office is another avenue for seeking guidance on Code interpretation or reporting concerns. The office reports to the Corporate Secretary and its staff includes an Associate General Counsel accountable for administering the ethics and compliance program. The Ethics and Compliance staff may be reached by phone, e-mail, regular mail, or in person. Contacts may 

18



 

be made anonymously. All contacts will be treated confidentially to the fullest extent possible. Reports to the Ethics and Compliance Office will be handled promptly, thoroughly, fairly, and discreetly.

Other avenues for guidance and reporting concerns in their respective areas are: Human Resources, Legal, Corporate Security, Internal Audit and Environment, Health and Safety.

ComEd employees may also contact the ComEd Help Line at 1-800-23-ETHIC, which is further described below.

Ethics and Compliance Help Line/Compliance Reporting Website

If employees are uncomfortable talking to someone at their location or at the Company regarding Code guidance or a concern, they may call the ComEd Help Line at 1-800-23-ETHIC. The Help Line is dedicated solely to answering questions concerning the Code and for reporting compliance or ethics concerns related to suspected violations of the law or the Code. Caller ID is not used and no attempt is made to identify the caller. Anonymous callers who wish to follow up on their call will be assigned a confidential case number and will be advised if additional information is required before an effective investigation can occur.

All calls to the Help Line are answered by an independent third-party contractor that maintains the service. The service is multilingual and is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Once the call is complete, a report of the call is forwarded to the Ethics and Compliance Office for review and appropriate follow-up action, as described under the heading “Reporting and Investigating Violations.”

The contractor managing the Help Line may monitor calls for quality assurance purposes. Any quality assurance recordings will not be made available to the Company. The Help Line will communicate with employees about their specific issue or concern, but will not provide confidential information about the investigation to any employee. The Help Line will coordinate all communications with and from employees with ComEd’s Ethics and Compliance Office.

Employees may also access the Report an Ethics Concern web link to request a Code interpretation or report a concern. The Report an Ethics Concern link can be accessed through the ComEd intranet website by selecting the link “Report an Ethics Concern” or by entering: www.compliance-helpline.com.

The Help Line and the Report an Ethics Concern web link are valuable resources and are made available to employees to request advice or report compliance or ethics concerns related to the Code. Employees are encouraged to use them.

19



 

RETALIATION

Any individual may in good faith report a concern regarding the conduct of another person or cooperate in any investigation regarding a suspected violation of the law or the Code without fear of reprisal, harassment, discrimination or retaliation of any kind. Any form of reprisal against an individual because the individual raised a matter of conduct or cooperated in an investigation is contrary to our culture and values -- and it will not be tolerated. A person who engages in any act of retaliation will be disciplined, up to and including termination.

20



 

VIOLATIONS AND PENALTIES

ComEd considers this Code of Business Conduct to be of the utmost importance. Accordingly, it will be appropriately enforced at all levels. Violations of this Code will not be tolerated.

Discipline may be taken against any employee who:


	
 
	
·
	
Authorizes or participates in actions which violate the law or this Code





	
 
	
·
	
Fails to report a Code violation where there is a reasonable basis to know that a violation is occurring or has occurred





	
 
	
·
	
Fails to cooperate with an investigation or intentionally conceals information or otherwise intentionally obstructs an investigation concerning a suspected violation of the law or the Code





	
 
	
·
	
Retaliates or discriminates in any way against anyone who in good faith reports a suspected violation of the law or the Code by another person





	
 
	
·
	
Retaliates or discriminates in any way against anyone who cooperates in any investigation of any such suspected violation or





	
 
	
·
	
Fails to complete or falsely completes a certification of compliance questionnaire




Discipline may include, but is not limited to, a reprimand, performance improvement plans, temporary suspension, demotion, financial sanctions, reimbursement for ComEd’s losses or damages, and termination. The Company may as appropriate refer matters involving wrongdoing under the Code to law enforcement for criminal prosecution.

21



 

CONCLUSION

Ethical Decision Making

One of the primary goals of the Code is to enable employees to make ethical business decisions. The Code establishes a set of common expectations for behavior in areas that are vital to the Company’s reputation and that pose ethical or legal concerns.

Employees may find it helpful to ask the following questions before taking action in specific situations:


	
 
	
·
	
Is your action honest in every respect?





	
 
	
·
	
Will your action comply with the intent and purpose of the Code?





	
 
	
·
	
Does it conform to ComEd’s policy?





	
 
	
·
	
Could you defend your action in front of supervisors, fellow employees, the general public and your family?





	
 
	
·
	
Do you feel comfortable taking the action?




In judging the appropriateness of any action, employees should be able to answer yes to each of these questions. If you are still unsure or uncomfortable with your course of action, please seek assistance.

The Company relies on the personal judgment and thoughtful behavior of each employee in conducting Company business. Ultimately, employees are personally accountable for their decisions and should discuss ethical questions with a supervisor, manager, or any of the other resources identified in this Code, or call the Ethics and Compliance Office Help Line at 1-800-23-ETHIC. Employees who feel uncomfortable discussing ethical questions with a supervisor or manager are encouraged to contact the Ethics and Compliance Office or call the Help Line at 1-800-23-ETHIC.

Accountability

Each employee is accountable for understanding and complying with the Code and compliance is a condition of employment. Managers have the additional accountability to create an environment that encourages ethical conduct and a commitment to compliance with the law.


	
 
	
·
	
Managers, in collaboration with the Ethics and Compliance Office, are accountable for the following





	
 
	
·
	
Knowing and communicating the laws and regulations that affect their respective areas of operation





	
 
	
·
	
Assessing the potential for unethical or illegal conduct in their respective areas of operation and taking action to mitigate it





	
 
	
·
	
Supporting a system for reporting concerns about ethics and unsafe conduct that protects employee confidentiality and anonymity to the fullest extent possible and ensures there is no retaliation against any employee for reporting a concern in good faith





	
 
	
·
	
Monitoring and documenting compliance with the Corporate Compliance Program and





	
 
	
·
	
Consistently administering disciplinary action regarding ethical misconduct and violations of the Code





	
 
	
·
	
Each of us is accountable for following the law, complying with ComEd and business unit policies and procedures, and striving to live up to our own values as well as those of ComEd




Committing an illegal or unethical act as a ComEd employee, agent, or supplier is never justifiable.

Each employee must conduct his or her business for the Company in accordance with this Code of Conduct. All of our stakeholders, including employees, customers, regulators, investors and suppliers, expect it, and our success depends on it.

The Code is not a contract of employment and is not intended to create any contractual obligations on the part of ComEd. It does not alter the existing at-will employment relationship between ComEd and its employees. Labor organizations that represent employees have been placed on notice that the Code is included in the work rules applicable to their members.

Attachment 5 to AMI SOW

Software Support Terms for AMI Full Deployment

1. SOFTWARE SUPPORT SERVICES. For the period during which ComEd has paid the Fee(s) specified in Attachment 4 for Application Management and Software Support for the AMI Project, Silver Spring will provide ComEd with the following Software Support Services:

1.1 Access to Customer Support Personnel. Silver Spring customer support personnel will be available for contact, for the purposes described in this Attachment, on Business Days ***.

The contact information for such support is as follows:

 

Table 1-Contact Information**


			
	
Telephone Support
	
Email Support
	
Website Support

	
***
	
***
	
***




 

ComEd will centralize its interactions with Silver Spring’s customer support staff by assigning *** persons who are authorized to contact Silver Spring for such support (“Authorized Support Supervisors”); Authorized Support Supervisors will be responsible for relaying information between Silver Spring and other members of ComEd’s support staff.

Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will respond as described in Sections 1.2 and 1.3 below. Unless otherwise mutually agreed on a case by case basis, Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will be ComEd’s main point of contact regarding all problems, including those forwarded by customer support personnel to other groups within Silver Spring.

1.2. Incident Reports, Service Requests, and Support Inquiries. Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will***that***, as well as***, receiving and responding to:***,***,***, including but not limited to***; and ***.***, Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will ***,***,***,***. Silver Spring will***,***. Silver Spring will ***.***ComEd will ***,***.

1.3. Classification of Incidents, Service Requests, and Support Inquiries. When ComEd submits an Incident Report, Service Request or Support Inquiry, ComEd will reasonably assess its urgency according to the appropriate priority levels defined in Table 2. Silver Spring will confirm the priority level and the Parties will resolve any disagreement regarding the priority as soon as is reasonably practical.

1.4. Error Management. As noted in Table 2 above, to the extent Silver Spring determines that the root cause (or suspected root cause) of a reported Incident is an Error, Silver Spring will open a report (“Error Report”) and further investigate it for resolution as set forth in Table 3 below, using reasonable efforts consistent with Table 3 to investigate and resolve Errors. Table 3 does not include Response Times, as response requirements are specified in Table 2, whether or not the Incident was known to be caused by an Error at the time of response. Target resolution timeframes in Table 3 do not include the time that elapsed before a problem was identified as an Error.

1.5 Classification of Errors. When Silver Spring identifies an Incident as an Error, Silver Spring will reasonably classify the Error in accordance with the Severity levels defined in Table 3. The Parties will resolve any disagreements about the Severity level as soon as is reasonably practical.

For the period during which ComEd has paid the Fee(s) specified in Attachment 1for Application Management and Software Support for the DA Project as well as for DA Communication Network Management, Silver Spring will provide ComEd with the following Software Support Services:

1.1 Access to Customer Support Personnel. Silver Spring customer support personnel will be available for contact, for the purposes described in this Attachment, on Business Days between 5am and 6pm (Pacific) (“Customer Support Business Hours”) by telephone, email, or via a website interface Silver Spring provides to its customers (however, for Priority 11ncidents, contact must be by telephone); at other hours, contacts by telephone will be supported through on-call services that will page Silver Spring personnel regarding Priority 11ncidents if such personnel are not directly available.

The contact information for such support is as follows:

Table 1-Contact Information**

 


	
Telephone Support
	
Email Support

ComEd will centralize its interactions with Silver Spring’s customer support staff by assigning ***persons who are authorized to contact Silver Spring for such support (“Authorized Support Supervisors”); Authorized Support Supervisors will be responsible for relaying information between Silver Spring and other members of ComEd’s support staff.

Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will respond as described in Sections 1.2 and 1.3 below. Unless otherwise mutually agreed on a case by case basis, Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will be ComEd’s main point of contact regarding all problems, including those forwarded by customer support personnel to other groups within Silver Spring.

1.2. Incident Reports, Service Requests, and Support Inquiries. Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will proactively alert ComEd of Priority 1and 2 incidents that Silver Spring discovers in the course of its monitoring and management responsibilities under ***, as well as ***, receiving and responding to: (a) reports of unplanned loss or degradation of service of the ***; (b) requests for minor discretionary changes to ***, including but not limited to access-related requests such as new user setup or password resets); and (c) non-repetitive requests for technical support ***. As vendor support, Silver Spring’s customer support personnel will respond only to *** submitted by ComEd’s Authorized Support Supervisors after such supervisors have attempted to resolve reports, requests, or inquiries from ComEd’s other staff. Silver Spring will provide support and resolution of errors within the timeframes and in the manner specified in ***. Silver Spring will report to and follow-up with ComEd regarding Incidents Silver Spring finds that materially affect ComEd’s implementation within the same timeframes and manner. ComEd will cooperate with *** that Silver Spring makes as part of its efforts to respond to ***.

1.3. Classification of Incidents, Service Requests, and Support Inquiries. When ComEd submits an Incident Report, Service Request or Support Inquiry, ComEd will reasonably assess its urgency according to the appropriate priority levels defined in Table 2. Silver Spring will confirm the priority level and the Parties will resolve any disagreement regarding the priority as soon as is reasonably practical.

1.4. Error Management. As noted in Table 2 above, to the extent Silver Spring determines that the root cause (or suspected root cause) of a reported Incident is an Error, Silver Spring will open a report (“Error Report”) and further investigate it for resolution as set forth in Table 3 below, using reasonable efforts consistent with Table 3 to investigate and resolve Errors. Table 3 does not include Response Times, as response requirements are specified in Table 2, whether or not the Incident was known to be caused by an Error at the time of response. Target resolution timeframes in Table 3 do not include the time that elapsed before a problem was identified as an Error.

1.5 Classification of Errors. When Silver Spring identifies an Incident as an Error, Silver Spring will reasonably classify the Error in accordance with the Severity levels defined in Table 3. The Parties will resolve any disagreements about the Severity level as soon as is reasonably practical.

Description of Migration Activity. 





	
 
	
2.1.1.
	
VPN Turn-Up Stage (3 Weeks). In this stage, Silver Spring will work with both *** to coordinate the establishment of new *** between carriers and Silver Spring. There will be *** between Silver Spring and ***. There will be *** between Silver Spring and ***. This stage will be required in order to migrate the *** from the ***. Firewall and router configurations will be built, cutover, and validated during this stage.





	
 
	
2.1.2.
	
Ramp Up Stage (3 Weeks). In this stage, the procedures for migration will be refined. The quantity of *** to be migrated daily will be determined by the pace at which Silver Spring, *** can establish clear migration procedures. ComEd will provide a list of all *** (deployed and in various warehouses) and all *** (deployed and in various warehouses).




There are two goals of the ramp up stage. The first goal is to fine tune the *** to develop the *** documents for two types of ***. ComEd will follow the standard *** for any *** that fails the migration procedure subject to Section 1.1.2.b above.

The second goal of this stage is to complete the migration of a set of *** identified for this stage of the Project with primary focus on ***. This stage will include migration of *** on both the ***.


	
 
	
2.1.3.
	
Primary Production Stage (1Week). In this stage, a strategic set of *** will be migrated to validate the steps from the ramp up stage. The goal of the primary production stage is to migrate the first subset of production *** to the ***. ComEd will provide field level support for replacement of any deployed *** that fails migration. ComEd will follow the standard *** for any *** that fails the *** subject to Section 1.1.2.b above. The initial target will be to *** working to a steady state target of an average of ***.

2.1.5
	
Finalization Stage (2 Weeks). In this stage, migration of any *** that were repaired under *** will be completed. Any *** that were skipped or changed from the schedule will be addressed in this stage, as well as all validation and acceptance.




General Assumptions


	
 
	
A.
	
Services related to the ***be completed by no later than ***, unless further extended by written agreement of the parties or terminated in accordance with the Master Agreement. Any tasks beyond those stated in this SOW N-4 are considered out of scope. Any change to any task, including any change to quantities or other parameters referenced in any task, may result in changes to pricing.
