current expectations and projections about future events based on knowledge of facts as of the date of this

<b>Item 5.  Other Events.</b>

         On October 1, 2003, Exelon Generation notified Edison International's indirect subsidiary, Midwest
Generation, LLC, of the exercise of its option to retain under a power purchase agreement for calendar year 2004
the 1,084 megawatts (MW) of capacity and energy from Midwest Generation's Collins Station currently under
contract for calendar year 2003.  Exelon Generation also exercised its option to release from a related power
purchase agreement 302 MW of capacity and energy (out of a possible total of 694 MW subject to the option) from
Midwest Generation's natural gas and oil-fired peaking units, thereby retaining under that contract 392 MW of the
capacity and energy of such units for calendar year 2004.  The notification received from Exelon Generation has
no effect on its commitments to purchase capacity from these peaking units for the balance of 2003.

         Midwest Generation currently intends to operate the peaking units released by Exelon Generation as
merchant plants and to sell the energy and capacity from those units through a combination of bilateral
agreements, forward sales and spot market sales.  The ability of Midwest Generation to derive profits from the
sale of electricity from the released units will be affected by prevailing market prices and the cost of
production, including fuel costs and the cost to comply with environmental regulations.  The cost of production
of merchant plants varies and, accordingly, depending on market conditions, the amount of generation that will be
sold from merchant assets is expected to vary from unit to unit.  Midwest Generation continues to monitor market
conditions and plans to adjust operations of its merchant plants based on these conditions.  In this regard,
Midwest Generation suspended operations at Units 1 and 2 of the Will County plant and Units 4 and 5 at the
Collins Station in January 2003.  During the fourth quarter of 2003, Midwest Generation will update its operating
plans for 2004, and will consider at that time whether operations should be suspended or decommissioned for any
released units.
