Exhibit 10(s)  AGREEMENT, RELEASE AND
WAIVER  This Agreement, Release and Waiver (Agreement) is
entered into by and between Eric P. Grubman (Grubman) and Constellation

waivers as set forth in this Agreement in connection with his voluntary
resignation from employment with the Company effective December 1, 2001, the
Company agrees to provide to Grubman (a) a $2,075,000 lump sum cash payment
payable on or before the 8th day following Grubmans execution of
this Agreement provided Grubman has not revoked the Agreement as set forth in
paragraph 15; (b) access to secretarial support from Janice Sawyer until
December 31, 2001; (c) reimbursement (subject to gross-up for payroll tax
withholding) for the following expenses incurred and paid by Grubman (i) lease
expense on 100 Harborview Apt. PH-2D from September 1, 2001 until December 31,
2001, (ii) rental expense from September 1, 2001 until December 31, 2001 for
furniture at the apartment in (i), 
(iii) real estate commission on the sale of one of Grubmans Baltimore
area residential dwellings if such dwelling is sold before March 31, 2002, such
commission reimbursement not to exceed $20,000, and (iv) moving and storage
expenses related to any move out of the apartment in (i) incurred on or before
December 31, 2002; (d) reimbursement for moving and storage expenses incurred
before June 15, 2002 related to any move out of Grubmans office at 250 West

before January 15, 2002 (subject to gross-up for payroll taxes) toward the cost
of health coverage, which monthly cash payments approximate on an after-tax
basis the monthly premium cost of medical and dental coverage for Grubman as if
he were an active employee and which shall cease effective on the date Grubman
is eligible for health coverage through another employer; (f) maintenance by
the Company until December 31, 2002 of Grubmans memberships for any clubs for
which Company paid Grubmans membership fees as of November 30, 2001.  The foregoing consideration is over and
above any benefits to which Grubman will be entitled under the Companys
benefit plans and policies as a result of his resignation from employment with
the Company effective December 1, 2001, which benefits both parties acknowledge
are set forth in Attachment A.  2.             The Company hereby agrees to
provide the benefits set forth in paragraph 1 to Grubman from the
Companys general assets, and where applicable in accordance with the terms of
the referenced benefit plans.  Except as
set forth in the applicable benefit plans, such amounts set forth in paragraph
1 are not subject to alienation, assignment, attachment, garnishment or other
legal process by or on behalf of Grubman until such amounts are actually
received by him.  Such payments are
subject to applicable payroll tax withholding and will not be considered as
compensation for purposes of the Companys retirement or welfare benefit plans.  3.             In
exchange for the Companys agreement to provide the consideration set forth in
paragraph 1, Grubman knowingly, freely and voluntarily agrees that, to the full
extent the law permits, he hereby releases and discharges the Company and any
company controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company
(Affiliate), their successors, officers, directors, agents, representatives
or employees from any and all debts, obligations, claims, demands, judgments or
causes of action of any kind whatsoever, known or unknown, in tort, by statute
or  
   on any other basis, for equitable relief, compensatory, punitive or
other damages, expenses (including attorneys fees), and/or reimbursements of
costs of any kind, including, but not limited to any and all claims, demands,
rights and/or causes of action which might arise out of allegations relating to
a claimed breach of contract (express or implied), or any tort, legal actions
under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (42 U.S.C. § 2000e et
seq.), the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and 1871 (42 U.S.C. §§ 1981 and 1983),
the Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq.), the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act (29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq.), the Equal
Pay Act (29 U.S.C. § 206(d)(1)), the Rehabilitation Act (29 U.S.C. §§ 701-704),
Executive Order 11246, or any other Federal, State, local or common law
concerning age, gender, race, religion, national origin, disability or any
other protected classification or category which expressly or impliedly may
form the basis of alleged discrimination, or any other law or regulation.  To the extent any such actions are pending,
Grubman agrees that they are or will be immediately withdrawn before or upon
his commencement of receipt of the consideration set forth in paragraph 1.  Grubman also knowingly and voluntarily
agrees that, to the full extent the law permits, he waives any and all causes
of action and will not file, cause to be filed, or voluntarily assist in the
prosecution of any charges, claims, lawsuits, or other actions of any kind
against the Company, its Affiliates and/or or their successors, officers,
directors, agents, representatives or employees.  Grubman is not waiving claims that may arise based on events
occurring after he executes this Agreement, and is not waiving rights to
enforce this Agreement.  Grubman further
acknowledges that he expressly waives any right with respect to and forfeits
any equity grant made at any time to him by the Company and any other
remuneration or benefits not expressly set forth in paragraph 1 and Attachment
A.   Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, Company acknowledges that Grubmans right to
indemnification under Company by-laws, charter, and coverage under any
Directors and Officers insurance, for acts and omissions incurred while
Grubman was an employee of Company, is not waived by Grubman under this
Agreement.  Additionally, Grubman
does specifically, knowingly and voluntarily waive any and all rights or claims
he may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA).  Subject to paragraphs 6,
7, 8, 9, and 10, Company releases and discharges Grubman from all debts,
obligations, claims, demands judgments or causes of action of any kind
whatsoever, known or unknown, in tort, by statute or on any other basis, for
equitable relief, compensatory, punitive or other damages, expenses (including
attorneys fees), and/or reimbursements of costs of any kind, including, but
not limited to any and all claims, demands, rights and/or causes of action
which might arise out of allegations relating to a claimed breach of contract
(express or implied), or any tort. To the extent any such actions are pending,
Company agrees that they are or will be immediately withdrawn before or upon
the expiration of the 7-day period in paragraph 15.  Company also agrees that, to the full extent the law permits, it
waives any and all causes of action and will not file, cause to be filed, or
voluntarily assist in the prosecution of any charges, claims, lawsuits, or
other actions of any kind against Grubman. 
Company is not waiving claims that may arise based on events occurring
after it executes this Agreement.  2 
   4.             Nothing
in this Agreement, including the payment of any sum by the Company, constitutes
an admission by the Company or any Affiliate of any legal wrong.  5.             The parties agree that the terms of
this Agreement including the consideration set forth in paragraph 1 are
confidential and will not be disclosed to any non-parties hereto; provided,
however, that Grubman may disclose such information to his spouse, personal
attorney, and personal accountant and financial advisors, and otherwise as
required by law or order of a court. 
Should Grubman wish to consult with anyone else he deems appropriate to
review this Agreement, he must first obtain the written consent of the Company
which will not be unreasonably withheld. 
In addition, the Company may disclose such information as is necessary,
in its sole discretion, to federal or state agencies or to comply with any law.  6.             Grubman
acknowledges that while he was an active employee of the Company or any
Affiliate, he received or had access to confidential and proprietary
information which is a valuable, special and unique asset of the Company and/or
its Affiliates.  Accordingly, Grubman
agrees that, for a period of one year from the date of this Agreement (noted in
the final sentence of this Agreement), he shall not (directly or indirectly)
divulge or communicate to any person (except as compelled by order of a court
of competent jurisdiction if Grubman provides the Company with notice at least
10 business days before complying with such order, to provide the Company the
opportunity to challenge the order), confidential commercial information, or
any other business or commercial information, or data of the Company, its
customers, or any Affiliates, which is not generally known to the public.  Grubman further agrees that he will, as soon as reasonably practicable
following his resignation from employment with the Company, return to the
Company all Company and Affiliate property, as well as all books, records,
customer and pricing lists, correspondence, contracts or orders, advertising or
promotional materials, and other written, typed or printed materials, whether
furnished by the Company or prepared by Grubman, which contain any information
relating to the Companys business, and Grubman agrees that he will neither
make nor retain copies of such materials; provided, however, that any
correspondence prepared by or addressed to Grubman may be retained by Grubman
subject to Grubmans obligation not to disclose confidential information as set
forth in this paragraph 6.  7.             Grubman agrees to refrain from
making any untruthful oral or written statements to the public, or to any third
party, about the Company or its Affiliates, their business practices, or the
business practices of any present or former officers, directors, executives,
employees, representatives, agents or customers or any related services of the
Company, or any general matter concerning the Company or any of its Affiliates
reputation, standing in the business community, or business practices.    Company agrees to refrain from making any
untruthful oral or written statements to the public, or to any third party,
about Grubman, his reputation, standing in the business community, or business
practices.  8.             Grubman agrees that prior to July
1, 2002, he will not directly or indirectly, whether or not for compensation
and whether or not as an employee, be engaged in or have any financial interest
in  certain entities as reasonably
requested by the Company and agreed to by Grubman in writing.  For purposes of this Agreement, Grubman
shall be deemed to be engaged  3 
   in or have a financial interest in such entity  if he is an employee, officer, director,
member, principal or partner, of such entity, or if he directly or indirectly
performs services for such entity or if he or any member of his immediate
family beneficially owns an equity interest, or interest convertible into
equity, in any such entity; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not
prohibit Grubman or a member of his immediate family from owning, for the
purpose of passive investment, less than 5% of any class of securities of a
publicly held corporation.  9.             Prior to July 1,
2002, Grubman will not, directly or indirectly, either as a proprietor,
stockholder, partner, principal, officer, employee, consultant, advisor or
otherwise, personally induce or entice any employee of the Company or an
Affiliate to leave such employ; provided, however, that Grubman will not be
precluded from hiring any such employee who he has not so induced or enticed.  10.           In
the event of a breach or threatened breach by Grubman of the provisions of
paragraphs 6, 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, Grubman agrees that the Company
will be authorized and entitled to obtain, from any court of competent
jurisdiction, an injunction restraining Grubman from such breach and from
rendering any services to any person, firm, or entity in breach of such
paragraphs.  Nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies
available to it for a breach or threatened breach of paragraphs 6, 7, 8, or 9.  11.           In
the event any provision of paragraphs 6, 7, 8, or 9  of this Agreement is held to be an unreasonable restriction upon
Grubman, the court so holding may reduce the territory to which it pertains and/or
the period of time in which it operates, or order any other change to the
extent necessary to render such provision enforceable.  12.           If
it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Grubman has failed
to comply with one or more terms of this Agreement, the damages, if any, which
the Company may receive from him shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the value
of the payments described in paragraph 1.  13.           Grubman acknowledges
that the Company has advised him to consult with an attorney prior to executing
this Agreement.  14.           Grubman
acknowledges that he has a period of at least twenty-one (21) calendar days to
consider this Agreement.  Grubman
further acknowledges that if this Agreement, signed by him, is not received by
the Vice President of Human Resources, Constellation Energy Group, Inc., 24th
Floor, 250 West Pratt Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201, on or before December
24, 2001, this Agreement is null and void and unenforceable by the parties, and

specifically informed by the Company that for a period of seven (7) calendar
days following the date of his execution of this Agreement (as indicated in the

   Agreement by notifying

effective or enforceable until the aforesaid seven (7) calendar day revocation
period has expired.  17.           This Agreement supersedes any and all
other agreements or proposals, written or oral, made by the Company or any
Affiliate, or on their behalf to Grubman, and this Agreement is the full and
final understanding between the parties; provided, however that any written
document designating an entity referenced in paragraph 8 shall be deemed a part
of this Agreement.  18.           The invalidity or unenforceability of
any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and
effect.  This Agreement may only be
modified by a written agreement signed by the parties.  19.           This Agreement shall be governed by
the laws of Maryland.  20.           Grubman does hereby acknowledge that
