Dear Pepco Stockholder:
We have previously sent to you proxy material for the annual meeting of common stockholders and special meeting of preferred stockholders of Pepco, to be held on July 18, 2001. Your Board of Directors has unanimously recommended that stockholders vote in favor of the proposed merger with Conectiv.
Approval of the merger requires the affirmative vote of holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Pepco common stock, as well as of a majority of the outstanding shares of common and preferred stock voting together as a single class. Therefore, your vote is important, no matter how many or how few shares you may own. Whether or not you have already done so, please sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card today in the envelope provided.
Very truly yours,
Ellen Sheriff Rogers
Secretary
