16. Debt and Credit Agreements (All Registrants)

Short-Term Borrowings

Exelon Corporate, ComEd, and BGE meet their short-term liquidity requirements primarily through the issuance of commercial paper. PECO meets its short-term liquidity requirements primarily through the issuance of commercial paper and borrowings from the Exelon intercompany money pool. Pepco, DPL, and ACE meet their short-term liquidity requirements primarily through the issuance of commercial paper and borrowings from the PHI intercompany money pool. PHI Corporate meets its short-term liquidity requirements primarily through the issuance of short-term notes and borrowings from the Exelon intercompany money pool. The Registrants may use their respective credit facilities for general corporate purposes, including meeting short-term funding requirements and the issuance of letters of credit.

Commercial Paper

The following table reflects the Registrants' commercial paper programs supported by the revolving credit agreements at December 31, 2024 and 2023:

(a)Excludes credit facility agreements arranged at minority and community banks. See below for additional information.

(b)Includes revolving credit agreements at Exelon Corporate with a maximum program size of $900 million as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Exelon Corporate had $426 million in outstanding commercial paper as of December 31, 2024 and $527 million outstanding commercial paper as of December 31, 2023.

(d)The standard maximum program size for revolving credit facilities is $300 million each for Pepco, DPL and ACE based on the credit agreements in place. However, the facilities at Pepco, DPL, and ACE have the ability to flex to $500 million, $500 million, and $350 million, respectively. The borrowing capacity may be increased or decreased during the term of the facility, except that (i) the sum of the borrowing capacity must equal the total amount of the facility, and (ii) the aggregate amount of credit used at any given time by each of Pepco, DPL, or ACE may not exceed $900 million or the maximum amount of short-term debt the company is permitted to have outstanding by its regulatory authorities. The total number of the borrowing reallocations may not exceed eight per year during the term of the facility. In January 2025, this ability was utilized to increase Pepco's program size to $340 million. As a result, the program size for ACE did not change and DPL was decreased to $260 million, which prevents the aggregate amount of outstanding short-term debt from exceeding the $900 million limit.

In order to maintain their respective commercial paper programs in the amounts indicated above, each Registrant must have credit facilities in place, at least equal to the amount of its commercial paper program. A registrant does not issue commercial paper in an aggregate amount exceeding the then available capacity under its credit facility.

At December 31, 2024, the Registrants had the following aggregate bank commitments, credit facility borrowings, and available capacity under their respective credit facilities:

(a)Excludes credit facility agreements arranged at minority and community banks. See below for additional information.

(b)Includes $900 million aggregate bank commitment related to Exelon Corporate. Exelon Corporate had $3 million outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2024. Exelon Corporate had $471 million in available capacity to support additional commercial paper as of December 31, 2024.

The following table reflects the Registrants' credit facility agreements arranged at minority and community banks at December 31, 2024 and 2023. These are excluded from the Maximum Program Size and Aggregate Bank Commitment amounts within the two tables above and the facilities may be used to issue letters of credit.

(a)These facilities were entered into on October 4, 2024 and expire on October 3, 2025.

(b)Represents the consolidated amounts of ComEd, PECO, BGE, Pepco, DPL, and ACE.

Revolving Credit Agreements

On August 29, 2024, Exelon Corporate and each of the Utility Registrants amended and restated their respective syndicated revolving credit facility, extending the maturity date to August 29, 2029. The following table reflects the credit agreements:

Borrowings under Exelon’s, ComEd’s, PECO’s, BGE's, Pepco's, DPL's, and ACE's revolving credit agreements bear interest at a rate based upon either the prime rate or a SOFR-based rate, plus an adder based upon the particular Registrant’s credit rating. The adders for the prime based borrowings and SOFR-based borrowings as of December 31, 2024 are presented in the following table:

(a)Includes interest rate adders at Exelon Corporate of 27.5 basis points and 127.5 basis points for prime and SOFR-based borrowings, respectively.

If any registrant loses its investment grade rating, the maximum adders for prime rate borrowings and SOFR-based rate borrowings would be 65 basis points and 165 basis points, respectively. The credit agreements also require the borrower to pay a facility fee based upon the aggregate commitments. The fee varies depending upon the respective credit ratings of the borrower. Exelon Corporate and the Utility Registrants hadno outstanding amounts on the revolving credit facilities as of December 31, 2024.

Short-Term Loan Agreements

On March 23, 2017, Exelon Corporate entered into a term loan agreement for $500 million. The loan agreement was renewed in the first quarter of 2024 and was bifurcated into two tranches of $350 million and $150 million on March 14, 2024. The agreements will expire on March 14, 2025. Pursuant to the loan agreements, loans made thereunder bear interest at a variable rate equal to SOFR plus 1.05% and all indebtedness thereunder is unsecured. The loan agreement is reflected in Exelon's Consolidated Balance Sheets within Short-term borrowings.

On May 9, 2023, ComEd entered into a 364-day term loan agreement for $400 million with a variable rate equal to SOFR plus 1.00% and an expiration date of May 7, 2024. On May 1, 2024, ComEd entered into an agreement to extend the loan through the expiration date of June 28, 2024. The original proceeds from the loan were used to repay outstanding commercial paper obligations and for general corporate purposes. The balance of the loan was repaid on May 16, 2024.

Variable Rate Demand Bonds

DPL has outstanding obligations in respect of Variable Rate Demand Bonds (VRDB). VRDBs are subject to repayment on the demand of the holders and, for this reason, are accounted for as short-term debt in accordance with GAAP. However, these bonds may be converted to a fixed-rate, fixed-term option to establish a maturity which corresponds to the date of final maturity of the bonds. On this basis, PHI views VRDBs as a source of long-term financing. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $46 million and $79 million in variable rate demand bonds issued by DPL were outstanding and are included in the Long-term debt due within one year in Exelon's, PHI's, and DPL's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
