4.Eligibility. In connection with the Spin-Off and pursuant to the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement, each Constellation Employee who was participating in the Predecessor Plan as of immediately prior to the Spin-Off (an “Eligible Participant”) shall automatically become a participant in this Plan as of the Effective Date.

As of the Effective Date, the Company and the Plan shall assume all liabilities under the Predecessor Plan for any benefits under such plan of all Eligible Participants, and such benefits shall be administered and paid under the terms of this Plan.

(a)Compute without regard to Internal Revenue Code Limitations, but subject to any compensation limitations established by the Chairman (or if required by the Company’s corporate charter or by-laws, the Committee), shown in Appendix A, the participant’s Gross Pension under the Pension Plan based on the participant’s Severance from Service Date and assuming that benefit payments commence on the first of the month following the Severance From Service Date; provided, however, that if the participant is not eligible to have payments start under the Pension Plan as of such date, benefit payments will be assumed to commence on the participant’s Normal Retirement Date in the form of a single life annuity; and 
Subtract from the above amount the participant’s Gross Pension amount under the Pension Plan using the same Benefit Commencement Date.
(b)Or, if a participant dies before his/her Benefits Commencement Date, compute without regard to Internal Revenue Code Limitations but subject to any compensation limitations established by the Chairman (or if required by the 
-2-

Company’s corporate charter or by-laws, the Committee), shown in Appendix A, the participant’s Surviving Spouse’s or Alternate Beneficiary’s benefit under the Pension Plan based on payments commencing on the first of the month following the participant’s date of death; and 
Subtract from the above amount the amount payable to the Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary under the Pension Plan based on payments commencing on the first of the month following the participant’s date of death.
6.For Benefits Earned and Vested Prior to January 1, 2005
(a)Form of payout of benefits - generally. For a participant, the payout under this Plan will be a bi-weekly payment, unless the participant makes a valid election to receive his/her payout in the form of a lump sum; however, if the present value of the participant’s Plan payout is under $50,000, it will be paid automatically in the form of a lump sum. For this purpose, the present value of the Plan payout will be the amount that would be payable to a participant under paragraph (c) if he or she elected to receive a lump sum.
A participant may elect to receive his/her payout in the form of a lump sum by submitting to the Plan Administrator a signed election form. The form must be received by the Plan Administrator before the beginning of the calendar year during which the participant’s Severance From Service Date occurs. The election to receive a payout in the form of a lump sum may be revoked at any time before the beginning of the calendar year during which the participant’s Severance From Service Date occurs, by submitting to the Plan Administrator a new signed election form.
(b)Amount and timing of participant bi-weekly benefits payout. A participant entitled to bi-weekly benefits payouts will receive bi-weekly payments based on the amount determined under Section 5; provided, however, that such amounts shall be reduced as applicable in accordance with the terms of the Pension Plan for (i) early receipt and (ii) if the participant elects to receive such payments in the form of a joint and survivor annuity, the cost of such annuity. Payments under this paragraph (b) shall commence effective with the first day of the month following the participant’s Severance From Service Date. If such participant receives (or would have received but for the Internal Revenue Code limitations) cost of living adjustment(s) under the Pension Plan, the bi-weekly payments hereunder will be automatically increased based on the percentage of, and at the same time as, such adjustment(s).
Bi-weekly payments to the participant hereunder shall permanently cease upon the death of the participant, effective with the bi-weekly payment for the period following the month of the participant’s death.
(c)Amount and timing of participant lump sum benefits payout. A participant entitled to a lump sum benefit payout will receive a lump sum payment based on the same assumptions and procedures that are used for determining lump sums in the Pension Plan. Such lump sum payment shall be paid to the participant within 60 days after the participant’s Severance From Service Date.
-3-

(d)Amount and timing of Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary payout.
i.Before Benefit Commencement Date: A Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary who is entitled to a Preretirement Survivor Annuity or a Preretirement Survivor Benefit under the Pension Plan shall receive a benefit payment under this Plan in the form of a lump sum equal to an amount determined under Section 5 and payable within 60 days after the participant’s death.
ii.After Benefit Commencement Date: A participant who is entitled to begin receipt of bi-weekly benefits payments under paragraph (b) of this Section may elect to provide a survivor benefit to his/her Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary (whichever is applicable) in the form of a joint and survivor annuity, the calculation of which is set forth in the Pension Plan. Payments to either a Surviving Spouse or an Alternate Beneficiary under this Plan shall begin the first day of the month following the participant’s death. If the named Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary predeceases the participant, no survivor benefits are payable upon the participant’s death.
If a participant elects survivor coverage for the bi-weekly benefit payments under this Plan, the participant must provide all appropriate survivor benefit information in the timing and manner established by the Plan Administrator, before commencing benefit payments under paragraph (b) of this Section.
(e)Death of participant entitled to lump sum payout. In the event of the death of a participant after his/her Severance From Service Date and before the participant receives the lump sum payment under paragraph (c), such lump sum payment shall be made to the participant’s Alternate Beneficiary; and if there is no Alternate Beneficiary, payment shall be made to the Surviving Spouse; and if there is no Surviving Spouse, payment shall be made to the participant’s beneficiary under the employer’s employee life insurance plan; and if there is no beneficiary under the employer’s employee life insurance plan, payment shall be made to the participant’s estate. In the event of the death of a Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary after the participant’s death and before the Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary receives the lump sum payment under paragraph (d), such lump sum payment shall be made to the estate of the Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary (whichever is applicable.)    The lump sum payment shall be the same amount and made at the same time as set forth in paragraphs (c) and (d).
(f)Source of Payments. All payments under this Plan shall be made from the general corporate assets of the Company.
7.For Benefits Earned and Vested On or After January 1, 2005 
(a)Form of payout of benefits - generally.
i.For a participant who first became eligible to participate in the Predecessor Plan prior to 2010: The payout under this Plan will be a bi-weekly payment, unless the participant makes a valid election to receive his/her payout in the form of a lump sum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if upon the occurrence of a Separation from Service the present value of the 
-4-

participant’s Plan payout is less than $50,000, it will be paid automatically in the form of a lump sum. For this purpose, the present value of the Plan payout will be the amount that would be payable to a participant under paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section if he or she elected to receive a lump sum.
Participants who do not elect a lump sum may elect a joint and survivor form of annuity at any time prior to the Benefit Commencement Date. Such joint and survivor annuity shall be actuarially equivalent to the participant’s single life annuity. The cost of a joint and survivor benefit shall be borne by the participant.
ii.For participants who first became eligible to participate in the Predecessor Plan in 2010 or thereafter: The payout under this plan will be a lump sum, unless the participant makes a valid election to receive his/her payout in the form of a bi-weekly payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if upon the occurrence of a Separation from Service the present value of the participant’s Plan payout is less than $100,000, it will be paid automatically in the form of a lump sum. For this purpose, the present value of the Plan payout will be the amount that would be payable to a participant under paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section if he or she elected to receive a lump sum.
Participants who do elect a biweekly payment may elect a joint and survivor form of annuity at any time prior to the Benefit Commencement Date. Such joint and survivor annuity shall be actuarially equivalent to the participant’s single life annuity. The cost of a joint and survivor benefit shall be borne by the participant.
(b)Initial election of form of payment.
i.For participants who first became eligible to participate in the Predecessor Plan prior to 2010: A participant may make an initial election to receive his or her payout in the form of a lump sum in the form and manner established by the Plan Administrator from time to time, but such initial election shall be made no later than 30 days after the first day of the participant’s taxable year immediately following the first year the participant accrues a benefit under the Plan.
ii.For participants who first became eligible to participate in the Predecessor Plan in 2010 or thereafter: A participant may make an initial election to receive his or her payout in the form of a bi-weekly payment in the form and manner established by the Plan Administrator from time to time, but such initial election shall be made no later than 30 days after the first day of the participant’s taxable year immediately following the first year the participant accrues a benefit under the Plan.
(c)Subsequent elections of form of payment. A participant may revoke his or her form of payment election at any time in the form and manner established by the Plan Administrator from time to time, but such revocation shall take effect no earlier than 12 months from the date the revocation is received by the Plan Administrator, and will delay the benefit commencement date five years from the date such payment would otherwise have been paid.
(d)Amount and timing of participant benefits payout.
-5-

i.Bi-weekly Payments. A participant entitled to biweekly benefits payouts will receive bi-weekly payments based on the amount determined under Section 5; provided, however, that such amounts shall be reduced as applicable in accordance with the terms of the Pension Plan for (A) early receipt, and (B) if the participant elects as set forth in paragraph (a) to receive such payments in the form of a joint and survivor annuity, the cost of such annuity. Payments under this paragraph (i) shall commence effective with the first day of the month following the participant’s Severance From Service Date. If such participant receives (or would have received but for the Internal Revenue Code limitations) cost of living adjustment(s) under the Pension Plan, the bi-weekly payments hereunder will be automatically increased based on the percentage of, and at the same time as, such adjustment(s).
Bi-weekly payments to the participant hereunder shall permanently cease upon the death of the participant, effective with the bi-weekly payment for the period following the month of the participant’s death.
ii.Lump sum payments. A participant entitled to a lump sum benefit payout will receive a lump sum payment based on the same assumptions and procedures that are used for determining lump sums in the Pension Plan. Such lump sum payment shall be made within 60 days after the participant’s Severance From Service Date, and shall be paid to the participant.
iii.Six-month delay for Key Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a participant who is also a Key Employee shall receive no benefit payments under this Section 7 before the date that is six months after the participant’s Severance From Service Date.
(e)Amount and timing of Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary payout.
i.Before Benefit Commencement Date: A Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary who is entitled to a Preretirement Survivor Annuity or a Preretirement Survivor Benefit under the Pension Plan shall receive a benefit payment under this Plan in the form of a lump sum equal to an amount determined under Section 5 and payable within 60 days after the participant’s death.

A.For participants who first became eligible to participate in the Predecessor Plan prior to 2010: A participant who is entitled to begin receipt of bi-weekly benefits payments under paragraph (d) of this Section 7, may elect to provide a survivor benefit to his/her Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary (whichever is applicable) in the form of a joint and survivor annuity, the calculation of which is set forth in the Pension Plan, at any time prior to Benefit Commencement Date. Payments to either a Surviving Spouse or an Alternate Beneficiary under this Plan shall begin the first day of the month following the participant’s death. If the named Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary predeceases the participant, no survivor benefits are payable upon the participant’s death. If a participant elects survivor coverage for 
-6-

the bi-weekly benefit payments under this Plan, the participant must provide all appropriate survivor benefit information in the timing and manner established by the Plan Administrator, before commencing benefit payments under paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section.
B.For participants who first became eligible to participate in the Predecessor Plan in 2010 or thereafter: If a participant who elected to receive bi-weekly benefit payments also elects a survivor benefit pursuant to election procedure set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 7, the calculation of which is set forth in the Pension Plan, then the Surviving Spouse or Alternate Beneficiary shall receive a benefit payment under this Plan in the form of a lump sum equal to the present value of that survivor benefit, calculated using the interest rate in effect at the time of death and payable within 60 days after the participant’s death.
(f)Death of participant entitled to lump sum payout. In the event of the death of a participant after his/her Severance From Service Date and before the participant receives the lump sum payment under paragraph (d)(ii), such lump sum payment shall be made to the participant’s Alternate Beneficiary; and if there is no Alternate Beneficiary, payment shall be made to the Surviving Spouse; and if there is no Surviving Spouse, payment shall be made to the participant’s beneficiary under the employer’s employee life insurance plan; and if there is no beneficiary under the employer’s employee life insurance plan, payment shall be made to the participant’s estate.

(g)Source of Payments. All payments under this Plan shall be made from the general corporate assets of the Company.
8.Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. This Plan is intended to comply and shall be administered in a manner that is intended to comply with section 409A of the Code and shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that a payment is subject to section 409A of the Code, it shall be paid in a manner that will comply with section 409A of the Code, including proposed, temporary or final regulations or any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto. Any provision of this Plan that would cause an Award, issuance and/or payment to fail to satisfy section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Code section 409A (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by applicable law).
9.Miscellaneous. None of the benefits provided under this Plan shall be subject to alienation or assignment by any participant or beneficiary nor shall any of them be subject to attachment or garnishment or other legal process except (i) to the extent specially mandated and directed by applicable State or Federal law; or (ii) as requested by the participant or beneficiary to satisfy income tax withholding or liability.
-7-

This Plan may be amended from time to time, or suspended or terminated at any time, provided, however, that no amendment or termination shall impair the rights of any participant or beneficiary entitled to receive current or future payment hereunder at the time of such action. All amendments to this Plan which would increase or decrease the compensation of any Officer of the Company, either directly or indirectly, must be approved by the Committee. All other permissible amendments may be made at the written direction of the Plan Administrator.
Participation in this Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment between the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and any person and shall not be deemed to be consideration for, or a condition of, continued employment of any person.
The Plan is intended to be unfunded for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan, such rights shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
In the event the Company becomes a party to a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all of its assets or any other corporate reorganization in which the Company will not be the surviving corporation or in which the holders of the common stock of the Company will receive securities of another corporation (in any such case, the “New Company”), then the New Company shall assume the rights and obligations of the Company under this Plan.
This Plan shall be governed in all respects by Pennsylvania law, without respect to any conflicts of laws principles.

Constellation Energy Corporation (the “Company”) hereby establishes this Constellation Supplemental Pension Plan (the “Plan”) and maintains the Plan as an unfunded retirement plan for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, notwithstanding the creation of the Rabbi Trust. The purpose of the plan is to provide enhanced retirement benefits for certain officers and key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in order to attract and retain talented executive personnel. Any funds which may be invested and any assets which may be held to provide benefits under this Plan shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general funds and assets of the Company and no person other than the Company shall by virtue of the provisions of this Plan have any interest in such funds and assets. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan, such rights shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
The Plan is divided into sections that separately address benefits earned and vested on or after January 1, 2005, which are subject to Internal Revenue Code section 409A, and benefits earned and vested before January 1, 2005, which are “grandfathered” under Internal Revenue Code section 409A.
The Plan shall be effective as of the date on which shares of common stock of the Company are distributed to the stockholders of Exelon Corporation (“Exelon,” and such date, the “Effective Date”) pursuant to the Separation Agreement between the Company and Exelon, entered into in connection with such distribution (the “Separation Agreement”).  The distribution of shares of common stock of the Company to the stockholders of Exelon pursuant to the Separation Agreement shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Spin-Off.”

(iv)    the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or the consummation of a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control of the Company shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires beneficial ownership of more than 20% of the Company Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Company Voting Securities by the Company which reduces the number of Company Voting Securities outstanding; provided, that if after such acquisition by the Company such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional Company Voting Securities that increases the percentage of outstanding Company Voting Securities beneficially owned by such person, a Change in Control of the Company shall then occur.

8

begin on the first of the month after the later of reaching age 62 or the date of the computation. If the participant is not eligible for payment of a Gross Pension under the Pension Plan, the participant’s Accrued Gross Pension determined as of the date of the computation shall be substituted for the Gross Pension described above, with the appropriate reduction for early receipt applied as if the participant were eligible to begin payment of his Accrued Gross Pension on the first of the month after the later of reaching age 62 or the date of the computation.

In determining whether such a reduction has occurred, the participant’s gross accrued supplemental pension benefit calculated on the day immediately preceding the effective date of the amendment shall be compared to the participant’s gross accrued supplemental pension benefit calculated on the effective date of the amendment. An amendment that has the effect of reducing future benefit accruals is not an entitlement event. It is intended that an entitlement event under this Section 6(d)(iv)(2) will occur only with respect to those amendments that are substantially similar to amendments that are prohibited by Internal Revenue Code section 411(d)(6) with respect to qualified pension plans. The effective date of the 
9

(b)Amount, timing, and source of  participant benefit payout.
(i)Bi-weekly retirement benefit payout. A participant entitled to bi-weekly supplemental pension retirement benefits will receive bi-weekly payments equal to the amount determined under Section 5(b). Such payments shall commence effective with the first of the month following the Participant’s Severance From Service Date.

Bi-weekly payments hereunder shall permanently cease upon the death of the participant, effective with the bi-weekly payment for the period following the month of the participant’s death.

If such surviving spouse receives (or would have received but for the Internal Revenue Code Limitations) cost of living adjustment(s) under the Pension Plan, the bi-weekly payments hereunder will be automatically increased based on the percentage of, and at the same time as, such adjustment(s). Bi-weekly payments hereunder shall permanently cease upon the death of the surviving spouse, effective with the first bi-weekly payment for the month following the month of the surviving spouse’s death. Bi-weekly payments hereunder shall be made in accordance

with the provisions of the Rabbi Trust and, to the extent not paid under the terms of the Rabbi Trust, from general corporate assets.
9.Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. This Plan is intended to comply and shall be administered in a manner that is intended to comply with section 409A of the Code and shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that an Award, issuance and/or payment is subject to section 409A of the Code, it shall be awarded and/or issued or paid in a manner that will comply with section 409A of the Code, including proposed, temporary or final regulations or any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto. Any provision of this Plan that would cause an Award, issuance and/or payment to fail to satisfy section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Code section 409A (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by applicable law).
10.Miscellaneous. None of the benefits provided under this Plan shall be subject to alienation or assignment by any participant or beneficiary nor shall any of them be subject to attachment or garnishment or other legal process except (i) to the extent specially mandated and directed by applicable State or Federal statute; or (ii) as requested by the participant or beneficiary to satisfy income tax withholding or liability.
This Plan may be amended from time to time, or suspended or terminated at any time, provided, however, except as set forth in Sections 6(d)(iv)(2) or 7(c)(iv)(2), no amendment or termination shall reduce any previously accrued supplemental pension benefit under this Plan or impair the rights of any participant or beneficiary entitled to receive current or future payment hereunder at the time of such action. All amendments to this Plan may be made at the written direction of the Committee. Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan to the contrary, and subject to the limitations of applicable law, the Board may authorize a participant to be eligible for benefits or may increase benefit payments.
Participation in this Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment between the Company or any of its subsidiaries and any person and shall not be deemed to be consideration for, or a condition of, continued employment of any person.
In the event the Company becomes a party to a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all of its assets or any other corporate reorganization in which the Company will not be the surviving corporation or in which the holders of the common stock of the Company will receive securities of another corporation (in any such case, the “New Company”), then the New Company shall assume the rights and obligations of the Company under this Plan.
This Plan shall be governed in all respects by Pennsylvania law, without respect to any conflicts of law principles.
