Merger Q&A

First in a series of Q&As concerning the proposed merger

We understand that there are a lot of unanswered questions concerning the announced merger between PSEG and Exelon. We are collecting the questions and will try to answer them in a timely fashion. If you have a question you would like answered, you can submit it by e-mail to MergerQuestions@PSEG.com. Here are answers to some of the questions raised at initial staff meetings on the day of the announcement.

  Q. Will there be layoffs prior to the closing of the merger, which is expected in 12-15 months?

  A. The company will continue to streamline as it has over the past two years. Some areas of the company have already planned reorganizations and reductions, and these will proceed. Nuclear will likely experience reorganizations and position reductions under the Services agreement between Exelon and PSEG that takes effect Jan. 17, 2005.

  Position reductions may be offset by attrition. In addition, the company will try to limit outside hires during this period. It is anticipated that the bulk of remaining positions will be reduced near or at closing.

  Q. What severance will be offered and who will be eligible to get it?

  A. The severance package offered to PSEG employees whose positions have been eliminated is the same severance package that currently is and has been in place at PSEG for some time. Exelon employees will receive the severance package that currently is in place at their company.

  As in the past, there will be severance packages offered where jobs are eliminated and there may not be any call for volunteers. This makes sense for the long-term health of the company. Job reductions will not be needed across the company, but will be concentrated in those areas where there is duplication between Exelon and PSEG. Generally, people in positions that will need to be refilled will not be offered severance.

  Q. Are incentives being offered for early retirement?

  A. There are no plans to offer an incentive package for early retirement.

  Q. When will transition teams be formed and how can someone get on one?

  A. According to the merger agreement there will be a transition team formed consisting of 10 individuals from Exelon and 10 from PSEG. The individuals have not been identified yet and it is too early to give definitive information on how many additional individuals the transition team will reach out to for input. As information becomes available, and when the team is identified, we will pass it on.
