Internal Controls

Management is accountable for establishing and maintaining a system of internal controls within an organization. Internal controls are

those structures, activities, processes, and systems that help management effectively mitigate the risks to an organization’s

achievement of objectives. Management is also accountable for the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial

reporting. Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act, this accountability encompasses ensuring there is clear, complete, fair and

accurate reporting of financial and non-financial information pertaining to business transactions.

Management is charged with this accountability on behalf of the organization’s stakeholders and is held accountable for this

accountability by the Exelon Board of Directors.
