This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is being filed to amend the registration statement (the
"Registration Statement") on Form S-8 (File No. 33-53685), pursuant to which Potomac Electric
Power Company (the "Registrant") registered 1,200,000 shares of its common stock, $1.00 par value
("Pepco Common Stock"), and an indeterminate amount of plan interests, for offer and sale pursuant to
(i) the Potomac Electric Power Company Savings Plan for Exempt Employees, (ii) the Potomac Electric
Power Company Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees and (iii) the Potomac Electric Power
Company Savings Plan for Non-Bargaining Unit, Non-Exempt Employees (collectively, the "Plans").
On August 1, 2002, in accordance with an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of
February 9, 2001, among the Registrant, New RC, Inc., now named Pepco Holdings, Inc. ("Pepco
Holdings"), and Conectiv, the Registrant and Conectiv combined their businesses by merging with
acquisition subsidiaries of Pepco Holdings (the "Merger"). As a result of the Merger, the Registrant and
Conectiv each have become subsidiaries of Pepco Holdings and the outstanding shares of Pepco
Common Stock were converted in the right to receive shares of Pepco Holdings common stock. In
connection with the Merger, each of the Plans was amended to eliminate the Pepco stock fund as an

In accordance with its undertaking in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by
means of a post-effective amendment, any of the registered securities that remain unsold at the
termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby amends the Registration Statement to remove from
registration all shares of Pepco Common Stock and plan interests that remained unsold under the Plans
at the time of the Merger.
