Exhibit 10(q)
Attachment 1  EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT  This Employment Agreement (the Agreement) is made as of the 20th
day of December, 2001 by and between 
Constellation Energy Group, Inc. (Company) and Michael J. Wallace
(Executive).  WITNESSETH:  WHEREAS, Company desires to employ Executive and Executive is willing
to accept such employment, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth.  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
obligations hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:  1.             Employment Term.  Company hereby employs Executive and
Executive accepts employment with Company as President of the Companys
Generation Group on the terms and conditions herein set forth, for a period
commencing on January 2, 2002 and expiring on December 31, 2004 (the
Term).   Executives duties and
responsibilities shall be determined by Companys Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) consistent with Executives qualifications and the best interests of
Company.  Executive also shall perform
such other or additional duties as may be assigned to him by the CEO from time
to time as are reasonably consistent with the position of President or such
other position as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties.  2.             Duties.  During the term hereof, Executive shall
devote his entire attention and energy to the business and affairs of Company
on a full-time basis during normal business hours, and as reasonably required,
outside normal business hours, and shall not be engaged in any other business
activity, regardless of whether such business activity is pursued for gain,
profit or other  
   pecuniary advantage, unless the CEO otherwise consents
in writing; but this shall not be construed as preventing Executive from
investing his assets in such form or manner as will not require any services on
the part of the Executive in the operation of the affairs of the companies in
which such investments are made and will not otherwise conflict with the
provisions of this Agreement.  3.             Compensation.  (a)           Base Salary.  During the first year of this Agreement,
Company shall pay Executive an annual base salary of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000) (the Base Salary, subject to adjustment as provided in the
next sentence), payable in accordance with Companys regular payroll
procedures.  Company will review
Executives Base Salary for possible increases at least annually.  (b)           Incentive Plan.  During the term of this Agreement, Executive
shall be eligible to participate in Companys annual incentive plan for
executives, which shall have a target performance bonus totaling up to an
additional one hundred percent (100%) of Base Salary for the first year of this
Agreement based on achieving reasonably attainable individual and overall
Company performance goals.  For the
first year of this Agreement, the maximum performance bonus of Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000) will be guaranteed, and it will be paid in
accordance with the terms of the current Executive Annual Incentive Plan.  Following the first year of this Agreement
and during the remaining Term, the target performance bonus percentage of Base
Salary shall be no less than the target performance bonus percentage of annual
base salary of the Chief Executive Officer.  2 
   (c)           Restricted Stock.  Upon Executives execution of the applicable
Restricted Stock Agreement, Executive will receive shares of the Companys
service-based restricted stock as follows: 
twenty thousand (20,000) shares with a one (1) year restriction period;
thirty thousand (30,000) shares with a five (5) year restriction period.  (d)           Long-Term
Incentive.  Prior to June 30, 2002,
Company expects to adopt a new long-term incentive plan for officers.  Assuming such a plan is adopted, Executive
will receive a participation valued at Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), with
such value to be determined on the same basis as for other senior
executives.  In the event a new
long-term incentive plan has not been implemented by June 30, 2002, Executive
will be granted phantom stock options with a strike price of the fair market
value of Companys stock on June 30, 2002, and/or other equity-linked
instruments, valued at Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).  Executives participation in the long-term
incentive plan or ownership of the phantom stock options (or other
equity-linked instruments) will vest ratably over the Initial Term of this
Agreement, commencing retroactively to January 2, 2002.  In the event of a termination without
cause or a resignation for good reason provided by subparagraphs 7(d) and
7(e) of this Agreement, Executive will be deemed fully vested in the long-term
incentive plan or ownership of the phantom stock options (or other
equity-linked instruments).  (e)           Senior Executive
Supplemental Plan.  For purposes of
calculating Executives benefit under the Senior Executive Supplemental Plan,
Company will credit Executive with seven (7) years of vesting service
immediately upon hire.  Under this plan,
Executive will earn five and one-half percent (5.5%) of average annual base pay
plus average annual incentive for each year of service, to a maximum of
fifty-five percent (55%) of pay. 
Retirement eligibility under the Plan is age fifty-five (55) with ten
(10) years service, or age  3 
   sixty-two (62) with five (5) years service, and
therefore Executive would be eligible to retire after three (3) years of
service with a benefit of sixteen and one-half percent (16.5%) of pay.  4.             Benefits.  Executive shall be entitled to participate
in all of the Companys benefit plans on the same basis as other senior
executives, including, but not limited to, the Companys Flexible Benefits Plan
(including health and dental coverage), Pension Equity Pension Plan, and an
Employee Savings Plan with a 401(k) feature. 
Executive shall also be provided the Supplemental Benefits and
Perquisites set forth in Appendix A.  5.             Business
Expenses.  Executive shall be
entitled to prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by him in
furtherance of Companys business, in accordance with the policies and
procedures established for senior executives of Company.  6.             Relocation Expenses. To assist in Executives relocation to the Maryland area, Company will
provide Executive with reimbursement for the following reasonable, documented
costs:  House-hunting
trips for Executive and/or Executives family Settlement
expenses for the sale of Executives current residence Movement of Executives household goods, using a
Company-approved moving company Settlement
expenses for the purchase of Executives new home Reasonable temporary living expenses Storage of Executives household goods for a
reasonable period Reasonable travel expenses from Illinois for Executive
and his wife over a reasonable transition period Ten Thousand
Dollars ($10,000) incidental moving expenses  4 
   To the extent that the reimbursement of any of these costs is subject
to federal, state or local tax, the Executive shall be entitled to receive an
additional payment (a gross-up payment) in an amount such that, after payment
by the Executive of all taxes on such reimbursements, the Executive retains an
amount of the gross-up payment equal to the tax imposed on the reimbursements.  7.             Termination.  (a)           Death.  Upon the death of Executive, this Agreement
shall automatically terminate and Executives executor, administrator or
designated beneficiary shall be entitled to receive the Executives Base Salary
which shall have accrued to the date of such death and a pro rata portion of
the performance bonus earned for that year under Companys annual incentive
plan.  For purposes of calculating the
pro rata performance bonus, Executive will be deemed to have attained his
individual performance goals at target.  (b)           Illness or
Disability.  If Executive is absent
from his employment for reasons of illness or other physical or mental
incapacity for more than one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days, Company may
terminate this Agreement and Executives employment hereunder.  In such event, Company shall be obligated to
pay Executive his salary to the end of the month in which his employment is
terminated, and a pro rata portion of the performance bonus earned for that
year under Companys annual incentive plan. 
For purposes of calculating the pro rata performance bonus, Executive
will be deemed to have attained his individual performance goals at target.  (c)           Termination for
Cause.  Company may terminate this
Agreement and Executives employment hereunder at any time for Cause.  Cause shall be defined in the same  5 
   manner as it is defined by Section 1.7 of the Form of
Severance Agreement dated December   , 2001,
and attached hereto as Appendix B (Severance Agreement).  The procedures for effectuating a
termination for Cause as set forth in Section 1.7 of the Severance Agreement
shall be applicable.  In the event of termination for Cause, Company shall pay Executive his
Base Salary up to the effective date of the termination.  (d)           Termination
without Cause.  Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, Company also may terminate this
Agreement and Executives employment hereunder for any reason whatsoever, upon
thirty (30) days prior written notice to Executive.  In the event that Company terminates this Agreement other than
for Cause, Executive shall be entitled to: 
(i) Base Salary for the remainder of the Term of this Agreement; (ii) a
performance bonus for each year remaining in the Term of this Agreement
(prorated for partial years remaining) as if Executive and Company attained all
performance goals at target; (iii) removal of the restriction for the twenty
thousand (20,000) shares of Company stock with a one (1) year restriction
period provided by Section 3(c) of this Agreement, without regard to whether
the one (1) year period has elapsed; (iv) removal on a pro rated basis of the
restriction for the thirty thousand (30,000) shares of Company stock with a
five (5) year restriction period provided by Section 3(c) of the Agreement
(e.g., if Executive is employed for two (2) full years, the restriction would
be removed from 2/5 of the 5 year restricted stock; (v) immediate vesting of
the Long-Term Incentive provided by Section 3(d) of this Agreement; and (vi)
immediate vesting of all benefits under the Senior Executive Supplemental Plan
provided by Section 3(e) of this Agreement (i.e., Executive will be eligible to
retire at age 55 with a benefit of sixteen and one-half percent (16.5%) of pay
(average annual base pay plus average annual incentive)).  In return  6 
   for the separation benefits provided herein, Executive
will execute a waiver releasing the Company and its affiliates from all claims
related to his employment or the termination of his employment.  (e)           Resignation for Good Reason.  Executive may terminate this Agreement and
Executives employment hereunder for Good Reason.  Good Reason shall be defined in the same manner as it is
defined by Section 1.6 of the Form of Severance Agreement, except that the
occurrence of a Change of Control will not be necessary for Executive to
exercise his right to resign for Good Reason. 
A termination of employment by the Executive for Good Reason shall be
effectuated by giving the Company written notice (Notice of Termination for
Good Reason) of the termination within six (6) months of the occurrence of the
event constituting Good Reason or, if such event is not immediately
recognizable by the Executive, within six (6) months of the date the Executive
became or reasonably should have become aware of such event (but in no event
beyond the expiration of the Term of this Agreement), setting forth in reasonable
detail the specific conduct of the Company that constitutes Good Reason and the
specific provision(s) of this Agreement on which the Executive relies.  A termination of employment by the Executive
for Good Reason shall be effective on the thirtieth (30th) day
following the date when the Notice of Termination for Good Reason is given,
unless the notice sets forth a later date (which date shall in no event be
later than sixty (60) days after the notice is given); provided, however, that
no event described hereunder shall constitute Good Reason if such event is a
result of an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action that is not taken
in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company within five (5) days after
receipt of the Notice of Termination for Good Reason by the Company from the
Executive.  The Executives continued
employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect
to, any act or failure to act constituting Good  7 
   Reason
hereunder.  In the event that Executive
terminates this Agreement for Good Reason in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) Base Salary for the remainder of
the Term of this Agreement; (ii) a performance bonus for each year remaining in
the Term of this Agreement (prorated for partial years remaining) as if
Executive and Company attained all performance goals at target; (iii) removal
of the restriction for the twenty thousand (20,000) shares of Company stock with
a one (1) year restriction period provided by Section 3(c) of this Agreement,
without regard to whether the one (1) year period has elapsed; (iv) removal on
a pro rated basis of the restriction for the thirty thousand (30,000) shares of
Company stock with a five (5) year restriction period provided by Section 3(c)
of the Agreement (e.g., if Executive is employed for two (2) full years, the
restriction would be removed from 2/5 of the 5 year restricted stock); (v)
immediate vesting of the Long-Term Incentive provided by Section 3(d) of this
Agreement; and (vi) immediate vesting of all benefits under the Senior
Executive Supplemental Plan provided by Section 3(e) of this Agreement (i.e.,
Executive will be eligible to retire at age 55 with a benefit of sixteen and
one-half percent (16.5%) of pay (average annual base pay plus average annual
incentive)).  In return for the
separation benefits provided herein, Executive will execute a waiver releasing
the Company and its affiliates from all claims related his employment or the
termination of his employment.  (f)            Change of
Control.  In the event of a Change
in Control during the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to no
less than the severance benefits provided by the Severance Agreement, the form
of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B, regardless of whether said Severance
Agreement is terminated or amended during such Term.  In no event shall the Executive be entitled to benefits under
both this Agreement and the Severance Agreement or any other Company severance
program.  8 
   8.             Confidential
Information and Discoveries. 
Executive acknowledges that he will, as a result of his duties as an
employee of Company, have access to and be in a position to receive
confidential information.  Therefore,
Executive agrees that during his employment by Company and thereafter he will
not divulge to, or use for the benefit of, himself or any other person, any
information concerning any inventions, discoveries, improvements, processes,
methods, trade secrets, research or secret data (including, without limitation,
computer programs, software development or executive systems), or other
confidential matters possessed, owned or used by Company that may be obtained
or learned by the Executive in the course of or as a result of his employment
hereunder unless such disclosure is authorized in writing by the CEO.  The expiration or termination of employment
shall not be deemed to release the Executive from his duties hereunder not to
reveal or convert to his own use or the use of others the information described
herein.  9.             Remedy.  Executive understands that Company would not
have an adequate remedy at law for the material breach or threatened breach by
Executive of the covenants set forth in Paragraph 8 of this Agreement and
agrees that in the event of any such material breach or threatened breach,
Company may, in addition to the other remedies which may be available to it,
file a suit in equity to enjoin Executive from the breach or threatened breach
of such covenant.  10.           Miscellaneous.  (a)           Notices.  Any notice required or permitted to be given
under this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and if sent by
registered or certified mail to Executive or Company at the address set forth
below their signatures at the end of this Agreement or to such other address as
they shall notify each other in writing.  9 
   (b)           Assignment.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of Company and its successors and assigns.  This Agreement shall not be assignable by
Executive.  (c)           Applicable Law.  This Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland in every respect, including,
without limitation, validity, interpretation and performance.  (d)           Headings.  Section headings and numbers herein are
included for convenience of reference only and this Agreement is not to be
construed with reference thereto.  If
there be any conflict between such numbers and headings and the text hereof,
the text shall control.  (e)           Severability.  If for any reason any portion of this
Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, it is agreed that the same
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder hereof.  (f)            Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including its Appendices,
contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter
and supersedes all previous agreements between the parties.  No modification of this Agreement shall be
valid unless made in writing and signed by the parties hereto.  (g)           Waiver of breach.  The waiver of Company or Executive of a
breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate
or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.  10 
   (h)           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one agreement.  CONSTELLATION ENERGY

express written consent, the occurrence after the date of a Change in Control
of any one or more of the following:  2 
   (a)           The assignment to the Executive of
duties materially inconsistent with the Executives authorities, duties,
responsibilities, and status (including offices, title and reporting
relationships) as an executive and/or officer of the Company or an Affiliate
immediately prior to the date of the Change in Control, or a material reduction
or alteration in the nature or status of the Executives authorities, duties,

is remedied by the Company or such Affiliate within 10 business days after
receipt of written notice thereof given by the Executive; or  (b)           A reduction by the Company or an
Affiliate of the Executives base salary in effect immediately prior to the

replaced by an incentive opportunity equal in value; or is (ii) consistent and
proportional with an overall reduction in management compensation due to

retirement plans, practices, policies and programs of the Company or such
Affiliate to the same extent as other senior executives (or, where applicable,
retired senior executives) of the Company or such Affiliate, and (ii) the

participate in, and receive all benefits under, all applicable welfare benefit
plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the Company or such
Affiliate, including, without limitation, medical, prescription, dental,
disability, sick benefits, accidental death and travel insurance plans and
programs, to the same extent as other senior executives (or, where applicable,
retired senior executives) of the Company or such Affiliate; or  3 
   (e)           Failure of the Company or an
Affiliate (whichever is the Executives employer) to provide the Executive such
perquisites as the Company or such Affiliate may establish from time to time
which are commensurate with the Executives position and at least comparable to
those received by other senior executives at the Company or such Affiliate; or  (f)            The failure by the Company to comply
with paragraph (c) of Section 11 of this Agreement; or  (g)           Any other substantial breach of this
Agreement by the Company that either is not taken in good faith or is not
remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof from the
Executive.  The Executives
right to terminate employment for Good Reason shall not be affected by the
Executives incapacity due to physical or mental illness.  The Executives continued employment shall
not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any
circumstance constituting Good Reason herein. 
A termination of employment by the Executive for Good Reason for
purposes of this Agreement shall be effectuated by giving the Company written
notice (Notice of Terminaton for Good Reason) of the termination within six
(6) months of the occurrence of the event constituting Good Reason or, if such
event is not immediately recognizable by the Executive, within six (6) months
of the date the Executive became or reasonably should have become aware of such
event, setting forth in reasonable detail the specific conduct of the Company
that constitutes Good Reason and the specific provision(s) of this Agreement on
which the Executive relies.  A
termination of employment by the Executive for Good Reason shall be effective
on the thirtieth (30th) day following the date when the Notice of
Termination for Good Reason is given, unless the notice sets forth a later date
(which date shall in no event be later than sixty (60) days after the notice is
given); provided, however, that no event described hereunder shall constitute
Good Reason if such event is a result of an isolated, insubstantial and
inadvertent action that is not taken in bad faith and that is remedied by the
Company within five (5) days after receipt of the Notice of Termination for
Good Reason by the Company from the Executive. 
If the Company disputes the existence of Good Reason, the burden of
proof is on the Company to establish that Good Reason does not exist.  1.7              Cause.  Cause shall mean the occurrence of any one
or more of the following:  (a)           The Executive is convicted of a

refuses to comply with any written direction of an authorized representative of
the Company other than a directive constituting an assignment described in
Section 1.6(a); or  (d)           The Executive embezzles or knowingly,
and with intent, misappropriates property of the Company or an Affiliate, or
unlawfully appropriates any corporate opportunity of the Company or an
Affiliate.  A termination of
the Executives employment for Cause for purposes of this Agreement shall be
effected in accordance with the following procedures.  The Company shall give the Executive written notice (Notice of

employment for Cause, setting forth in reasonable detail the specific conduct

provision(s) of this Agreement on which it relies, and stating the date, time
and place of the Board Meeting for Cause. 
The Board Meeting for Cause means a meeting of the Board at which the
Executives termination for Cause will be considered, that takes place not less
than ten (10) and not more than twenty (20) business days after the Executive

be heard at the Board Meeting for Cause.

resolution is duly adopted at the Board Meeting for Cause by a two-thirds vote
of the entire membership of the Board, excluding employee directors, stating
that in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive is guilty of the
conduct described in the Notice of Termination for Cause, and that conduct
constitutes Cause under this Agreement.  1.8           Annual Award Amount.  The average of the two highest annual

40%, and (iii) any minimum service eligibility requirements for such benefits
shall be waived.  (c)           Severance Health Benefits.  The Company shall provide to the Executive
the substantially equivalent value of the medical and dental benefits provided
to active employees for three years after the Qualifying Termination and
thereafter to any retiree of the Company or a successor or an Affiliate
(whichever is the Executives employer) who has attained the deemed age and
service used to compute supplemental retirement benefits in Section 2(b) above.  (d)           Split Dollar.  The Qualifying Termination shall not
constitute a termination of any Split Dollar Agreement between the Company and
the Executive (or the split dollar agreement between a successor company or an
Affiliate and the Executive), and the Executive shall be deemed to have retired
upon such Qualifying Termination for purposes of such Split Dollar Agreement
(or the split dollar agreement between a successor company or an Affiliate and
the Executive).  6 
   (e)           Outplacement.  For a 60-day period commencing on the date
of the Qualifying Termination, the Executive is entitled to receive outplacement
services from one or more organizations that are offered by the Company from
time to time, with such services capped at a Company cost of $50,000.  (f)            Release.  The benefits described in this Section 2 are
payable by the Company to the Executive only if after the date of the
Qualifying Termination, the Executive executes (and does not subsequently
revoke) in writing and submits to the Company, in the form, manner, and subject
to the timing established by the Company, an agreement releasing legal claims,
including those against the Company and its Affiliates, including but not
limited to claims arising out of the Executives Company or Affiliate
employment or termination of such employment.  3.             Severance
Benefits for an Executive Eligible to Retire.Upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination with respect to an Executive
who is Eligible to Retire:  (a)           Severance Payment. The Company
shall pay to the Executive an amount equal to three times the Executives
annual base salary (as in effect on the date of the Qualifying Termination, not
reduced by any reduction described in Section 1.6(b) above) and Annual Award
Amount.  The payment shall be made in a
lump sum after the Qualifying Termination, and within approximately 10 business
days after the Company receives the executed agreement referred to in 3(f)
below but in no case prior to the expiration of any period during which the
Executive is permitted to revoke such agreement.  (b)           Supplemental Retirement Benefits.  For purposes of determining the Executives
supplemental retirement benefits which the Executive is entitled to under the
Companys supplemental non-qualified retirement plan in which the Executive
participated immediately prior to the Qualifying Termination (or the
supplemental retirement plan maintained by a successor company or an
Affiliate), the Executives service percentage shall be deemed equal to 40% or
the Executives actual service percentage (whichever is greater) and the
Executives supplemental retirement benefit shall not be reduced for early
receipt.  (c)           Severance Health Benefits.  The Company shall provide to the Executive
the substantially equivalent value of the medical and dental benefits provided
to active employees for three years after the Qualifying Termination and thereafter
to any retiree of the Company or a successor company or an Affiliate (whichever
is the Executives employer) who has attained age 65 and completed the greater
of 20 years or actual years of service.  7 
   (d)           Retirement.  The Executive shall be treated as having
retired at the Companys request for purposes of all of the Companys benefit
plans (or the benefit plans maintained by a successor company or an Affiliate
(whichever is the Executives employer)).  (e)           Outplacement.  For a 60-day period commencing on the date
of the Qualifying Termination, the Executive is entitled to receive
outplacement services from one or more organizations that are offered by the
Company from time to time, with such services capped at a Company cost of
$50,000.  (f)            Release.  The benefits described in this Section 3 are
payable by the Company to the Executive only if after the date of the
Qualifying Termination, the Executive executes (and does not subsequently
revoke) in writing and submits to the Company, in the form, manner, and subject
to the timing established by the Company, an agreement releasing legal claims,
including those against the Company and its Affiliates, including but not
limited to claims arising out of the Executives Company or Affiliate
employment or termination of such employment.  4.             Non-Exclusivity of Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or
limit the Executives continuing or future participation in any plan, program,
policy or practice provided by the Company or a successor company or an
Affiliate (whichever is the Executives employer) for which the Executive may
qualify, nor shall anything in this Agreement limit or otherwise affect such
rights as the Executive may have under any contract or agreement with the
Company or a successor Company or such Affiliate.  However, if the Executive receives severance benefits under this
Agreement, the Executive is not also entitled to any benefit under any other severance
plan, program, arrangement or agreement maintained by the Company or an
Affiliate.  Vested benefits and other
amounts that the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any incentive
compensation (including, but not limited to any restricted stock or stock
option agreements), deferred compensation and other benefit programs listed in
Section 1.6(d), life insurance coverage, or any other plan, policy, practice or
program of, or any contract or agreement with, the Company or a successor
Company or such Affiliate on or after the date of the Qualifying Termination
shall be payable in accordance with the terms of each such plan, policy,
practice, program, contract or agreement, as the case may be, except as
explicitly modified by this Agreement.  5.             Full Settlement.  The Companys obligation to make the
payments provided for in, and otherwise to perform its obligations under, this
Agreement shall not be affected by any  8 
   set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action that the
Company may have against the Executive or others.  In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable
to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and, such
amounts shall not be reduced, regardless of whether the Executive obtains other
employment.  6.             Certain Additional Payments by the
Company.  (a)           Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment
or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (a
Payment) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) or any interest or penalties
are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax,
together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively
referred to as the Excise Tax), then the Executive shall be entitled to
receive an additional payment (a Gross-Up Payment) in an amount such that
after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or
penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation,
any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereon)
and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an
amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the
Payments.  (b)           Subject to the provisions of
paragraph (c) of this Section 6, all determinations required to be made under
this Section 6, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and
the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in
arriving at such determination, shall be made by one of the major
internationally recognized certified public accounting firms (commonly referred
to, as of the date hereof, as a Big Five firm) designated by the Executive and
approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld)
(the Accounting Firm), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations
both to the Company and the Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the
receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such
earlier time as is requested by the Company. 
In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or
auditor for the individual, entity or group affecting the change of control,
the Executive shall designate another Big Five accounting firm (subject to the
approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) to
make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be
referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). 
All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by
the Company.  Any Gross-  9 
   Up Payment, as
determined pursuant to this Section 6, shall be paid by the Company to the
Executive within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting Firms
determination.  Any determination by the
Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive.  As a result of the uncertainty in the
application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial
determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up
Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made
(Underpayment) consistent with the calculations required to be made
hereunder.  In the event that the
Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 6 and
the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the
Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has
occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or
for the benefit of the Executive.  (c)           The Executive shall notify the
Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if
successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment.
Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten
(10) business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and
shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which
such claim is requested to be paid.  The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30)
day period following the date on which the Executive gives such notice to the
Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes
with respect to such claim is due).  If
the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such
period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall:  (i)            give the Company any information
reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim,  (ii)           take such action in connection with
contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from
time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation
with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company,  (iii)          cooperate with the Company in good
faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and  (iv)          permit the Company to participate in
any proceedings relating to such claim;  PROVIDED, however,
that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including
additional interest and  10 
   penalties)
incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the
Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax
(including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of
such representation and payment of costs and expenses.  Without limitation on the foregoing
provisions of this paragraph (c) of Section 6, the Company shall control all
proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may
pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and
conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its
sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a
refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees
to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative
tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate
courts, as the Company shall determine; PROVIDED, however, that if the Company
directs the Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall
advance the amount of such payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis
and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis,
from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect
thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed
income with respect to such advance; and PROVIDED, further, that any extension
of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year
of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be
due is limited solely to such contested amount.  Furthermore, the Companys control of the contest shall be
limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable
hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case
may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other
taxing authority.  (d)           If, after the receipt by the
Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c) of
this Section 6, the Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with
respect to such claim, the Executive shall promptly take all necessary action
to obtain such refund and (subject to the Companys complying with the
requirements of paragraph (c) of this Section 6) upon receipt of such refund
shall promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any
interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto).  If after the receipt by the Executive of an
amount advanced by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 6, a
determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund
with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in
writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration
of thirty (30) days after such determination, then such advance shall be
forgiven and  11 
   shall not be
required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the
extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.  7.             Termination of Agreement.  This Agreement shall remain in effect from
the date hereof until the last day of the twenty-fourth calendar month
following the date of a Change in Control. 
Further, upon the date of a Change in Control, this Agreement shall
continue until the Company or its successor shall have fully performed all of
its obligations thereunder with respect to the Executive, with no future
performance being possible. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Board at any time prior to the date of a Change in Control.  8.             Amendment of Agreement.  This Agreement may be amended by the Board
at any time prior to the date of a Change in Control.  At and after the date of a Change in Control, this Agreement may
not be amended in any respect without the written consent of the Executive.  9.             Construction.  Wherever any words are used herein in the
masculine gender they shall be construed as though they were also used in the
feminine gender in all cases where they would so apply, and wherever any words
are used herein in the singular form, they shall be construed as though they
were also used in the plural form in all cases where they would so apply.  10.           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws
of Maryland.  11.           Successors and Assigns.  (a)           This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the Executives legal representatives.  (b)           This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.  (c)           The Company shall require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Company would have been required to
perform it if no such succession had taken place.  As used in this Agreement, Company shall mean both the Company
as defined above and any such successor that assumes and agrees to perform this
Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise.  12 
   12.           Indemnification.  The Company will pay all reasonable fees and
expenses, if any, (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) that
are incurred by the Executive to enforce this Agreement and that result from a
breach of this Agreement by the Company.  13.           Notice.  Any notices, requests, demands, or other communications provided
for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and if sent by
registered or certified mail to the Executive at the last address the Executive
has filed in writing with the Company, or in the case of the Company, to its
principal offices.  14.           Severability.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this
Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Agreement.  If any
provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in part, the
remaining portion of such provision, together with all other provisions of this
Agreement, shall remain valid and enforceable and continue in full force and
effect to the fullest extent consistent with law.  15.           Withholding. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Company may withhold from amounts payable
under this Agreement all federal, state, local and foreign taxes that are
required to be withheld by applicable laws or regulations.  16.           Entire Agreement. Unless otherwise
specifically provided in this Agreement, the Executive and the Company
acknowledge that this Agreement supersedes any other agreement between them or
between the Executive and the Company or an Affiliate, concerning the subject
matter hereof.  17.           Alienability.  The rights and benefits of the Executive under this Agreement may
not be anticipated, alienated or subject to attachment, garnishment, levy,
execution or other legal or equitable process except as required by law.  Any attempt by the Executive to anticipate,
alienate, assign, sell, transfer, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be
void.  Payments hereunder shall not be
considered assets of the Executive in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy.  18.           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, and said counterparts shall constitute but
one and the same instrument.  IN WITNESS
WHEREOF, the Executive has hereunto set the Executives hand and, pursuant to
the authorization of the Board,  13 
   the Company has
caused this Agreement to be executed in its name on its behalf, all as of the
day and year first above written.  CONSTELLATION ENERGY GROUP, INC.By:Michael J. Wallace
