Today's business climate dictates that companies must be able to attract, retain and develop top talent in order to grow the business and sustain success. The situation is no different at Constellation Energy. It is critical that we draw from the diverse pool of qualified candidates and make them a part of an environment that values and leverages different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.

I am personally committed to the success of diversity and inclusion efforts throughout Constellation Energy. It is the right thing to do and it is necessary to ensure the bright future of Constellation Energy. I was proud in 2008 to lead our newly formed diversity council that is responsible for the oversight and advocacy of diversity and inclusion practices. In 2009, the diversity council, consisting of business leaders from across the organization, is under the very capable leadership of Charles Berardesco, our general counsel and corporate compliance officer. I'm proud of the council's foundational work in 2008, and under Charlie's leadership, I'm confident the council will continue to advance our diversity and inclusion initiatives.

Together, we can show who Constellation Energy is - a company that sees the value in diversity and in creating an inclusive environment for all.

Thank you,
Mayo A. Shattuck III
Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, Constellation Energy
