What is the primary purpose of this 10-K filing?

This filing is an amendment to Exelon Corporation's 2002 Form 10-K, primarily to address comments from the SEC regarding the effectiveness of the company's and its subsidiaries' disclosure controls and procedures.

What does it mean that the disclosure controls and procedures were found 'effective'?

It means that management, including the principal executive and financial officers, evaluated the controls and procedures within 90 days prior to the report date and concluded that they were designed to ensure that material information is made known to management and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported in a timely manner as required by SEC rules. However, it's noted that these controls provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance against misstatements due to inherent limitations.

What kind of financial information is provided in the schedules?

The financial statement schedules include details on Valuation and Qualifying Accounts for each registrant. This covers the 'Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts' and various reserves, such as those for 'Merger-Related Costs,' 'Injuries and Damages,' 'Environmental Investigation and Remediation,' and 'Obsolete Materials' for the years 2000, 2001, and 2002.

The filing references several events and transactions from the fourth quarter of 2002 through the filing date of the original 10-K (March 21, 2003), as reported on Form 8-K.
