1 Energy Infrastructure Mdernizatin Act Transfrming Illinis Electric Grid RMAP Overview

2 Passage f the Energy Infrastructure Mdernizatin Act ushers in a new era f utility service and cnsumer benefits 2 VISION INVESTMENT BENEFITS CmEd will fulfill the prmise f grid mdernizatin t Nrthern Illinis cnsumers by: Imprving system reliability and deplying new smart grid technlgies Prviding greater value t custmers thrugh better service and creating a new level f accuntability fr CmEd Preparing ur regin fr the new demands f the 21st century ecnmy and supprting a greener future Prviding energy cnsumers mre savings, chice and cntrl Renewing ur effrts t care fr ur cmmunities and custmers wh depend n ur infrastructure and service

3 Half f $2.6B investment is allcated t infrastructure imprvements 3 VISION INVESTMENT BENEFITS Infrastructure Imprvements* Test, refurbish and replace ver 7,800** miles* f undergrund cable t reduce utages due t cable failures Assess, refurbish and replace ver 28,000 manhles* Accelerate the inspectin, reinfrcement and replacement f 660,000*** wd ples t imprve system reliability Strm harden areas histrically vulnerable t weather-related damage by mving equipment undergrund and installing treeresistant cable Nte: *ver the 5 year infrastructure investment perid; **undergrund residential and mainline cable; ***660,000 wd ple inspectins

4 The ther half digitizes the system with new technlgy 4 VISION Digital Technlgy INVESTMENT BENEFITS Install distributin autmatin devices t detect issues n the grid and autmatically re-rute pwer t minimize the custmer utages Upgrade ten electrical substatins* that will imprve autmated mnitring f grid perfrmance, increase reliability and reduce pwer delivery expenses Over fur millin** advanced meter installatins in every hme and business that will Enhance utage identificatin and restratin Imprve meter reading and billing efficiencies Reduce electricity theft Enhance discnnectin and recnnectin f electric service Prvide custmers mre infrmatin, services, savings, chice and cntrl Nte: *ver the 5 year infrastructure investment perid; **ver the 10 year installatin perid

5 Cnsumers see imprved service, savings and mre chice 5 VISION INVESTMENT BENEFITS Cnsumer Benefits Fewer and shrter utages An estimated 700,000 avided custmer utages per year culd save custmers $100M annually** Cnsumer savings, chice and cntrl All savings achieved by mre efficient utility peratins will be passed n t cnsumers Over $250M in estimated savings per year** As a result f the first ICC filing under Energy Infrmatin Mdernizatin Act, cnsumers can expect $54 millin in savings With advanced meters, cnsumers culd save n energy csts by: Chsing the peak time rebate pricing plan Better managing energy use Using new energy management technlgies, such as smart appliances r hme area netwrk devices Nte: * The new delivery service rates will be in effect frm June thrugh the end f 2012; **After all the advanced meters have been installed

6 Investment creates new jbs, leads t a cleaner envirnment in Illinis and establishes grund breaking utility accuntability 6 VISION INVESTMENT BENEFITS Nrthern Illinis Benefits Ecnmic grwth and jb creatin The investment will create mre than 2,000 FTEs* Innvatin and entrepreneurship A $20M Science and Energy Innvatin Trust will be created t fster and supprt high-grwth, energy and technlgy related Illinis cmpanies A Smart Grid Test Bed will prvide entrepreneurs with the pprtunity t demnstrate new services, technlgies and business mdels, sme f which will be funded by the Trust Greater use f renewable energy surces Advanced meters make it easier t incrprate renewable energy surces such as wind and slar int the grid and help t manage demand frm electric vehicle charging statins Utility versight and accuntability CmEd is the first U.S. investr-wned electric utility t be held accuntable t cmprehensive perfrmance standards that are tied t its prfits Nte: * Full-time equivalents at peak investment
