PECO ENERGY COMPANY
First and Refunding Mortgage Bond,
5.95% Series Due 2036
Due October 1, 2036

(CONTINUED)

This bond is one of a duly authorized issue of bonds of the Company, unlimited as to amount except as provided in the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned or in any indenture supplemental thereto, and is one of a series of said bonds known as First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, 5.95% Series due 2036. This bond and all other bonds of said issue are issued and to be issued under and pursuant to and are all secured equally and ratably by an indenture of mortgage and deed of trust dated May 1, 1923, duly executed and delivered by The Counties Gas and Electric Company (to which the Company is successor) to Fidelity Trust Company, as Trustee (to which Wachovia Bank, National Association, a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, is successor Trustee), as amended, modified or supplemented by certain supplemental indentures from the Company or its predecessors to said successor Trustee or its predecessors, said mortgage, as so amended, modified or supplemented being herein called the Mortgage. Reference is hereby made to the Mortgage for a statement of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders of said bonds and of the Trustee in respect of such security, the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the terms and conditions upon which said bonds are and are to be secured, and the circumstances under which additional bonds may be issued.

As provided in the Mortgage, the bonds secured thereby may be for various principal sums and are issuable in series, which series may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates, and may otherwise vary. The bonds of this series mature on October 1, 2036, and are issuable only in registered form without coupons in any denomination authorized by the Company.

Any bond or bonds of this series may be exchanged for another bond or bonds of this series in a like aggregate principal amount in authorized denominations, upon presentation at the office of the Trustee in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or, at the option of the holder, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, all subject to the terms of the Mortgage but without any charge other than a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any stamp tax or other governmental charge incident to the exchange.

The bonds of this series are redeemable at the option of the Company, as a whole or in part, at any time upon notice sent by the Company through the mail, postage prepaid, at least thirty (30) days and not more than forty-five (45) days prior to the date fixed for redemption, to the registered holder of each bond to be redeemed, addressed to such holder at his address appearing upon the registration books, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the redemption date, or (2) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining

scheduled payments of principal and interest on the bonds to be redeemed (not including any portion of payments of interest accrued as of the redemption date) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus accrued interest to the redemption date. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the bonds of this series or portions of the bonds of this series called for redemption.

“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the redemption date.

“Business Day” means any day that is not a day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law or regulation to close.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the bonds of this series that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the bonds of this series.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date:

	•		the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or

	•		if the Trustee obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations so received.

“Quotation Agent” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Barclays Capital Inc. and BNP Paribas Securities Corp. and their respective successors, unless any of them ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Company shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding that redemption date.

The principal of this bond may be declared or may become due on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect provided in the Mortgage upon the happening of an event of default as in the Mortgage provided.

This bond is transferable by the registered holder hereof in person or by attorney, duly authorized in writing, at the office of the Trustee in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or, at the option of the holder, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in books of the Company to be kept for that purpose, upon surrender and cancellation hereof, and upon any such transfer, a new registered bond or bonds, without coupons, of this series and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor, all subject to the terms of the Mortgage but without payment of any charge other than a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any stamp tax or other governmental charge incident to the transfer. The Company, the Trustee, and any paying agent may deem and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this bond to any incorporator or any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or indirectly, by virtue of any statute or by enforcement of any assessment or otherwise, and any and all liability of the said incorporators, stockholders, officers or directors of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation in respect to this bond is hereby expressly waived and released by every holder hereof, except to the extent that such liability may not be waived or released under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 or of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.
