Forward-Looking Statements. This report contains forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
including, but not limited to, statements relating to the proposed transaction
between Constellation and MidAmerican and the expected timing and completion of
the transaction. Words such as "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate,"
"expect," "intend," "will," "should," "may," and other similar expressions are
intended to identify forward looking statements. Such statements are based upon
the current beliefs and expectations of our management and involve a number of
significant risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and
generally beyond the control of Constellation and MidAmerican. Actual results
may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking
statements. There can be no assurance as to the timing of the closing of the
transaction, or whether the transaction will close at all. The following
factors, among others, could cause or contribute to such material differences:
the ability to obtain the approval of the transaction by Constellation's
shareholders; the ability to obtain governmental approvals of the transaction or
to satisfy other conditions to the transaction on the terms and expected
timeframe or at all; transaction costs; economic conditions; a material adverse
change in the business, assets, financial condition or results of operations of
Constellation; a material deterioration in Constellation's retail and/or
wholesale businesses and assets; and the effects of disruption from the
transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees,
customers, other business partners or government entities. Additional factors
that could cause Constellation's results to differ materially from those
described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the periodic reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in the proxy statement
Constellation intends to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
mail to its shareholders with respect to the proposed transaction, which are or
will be available at the Securities and Exchange Commission's Web site
(http://www.sec.gov) at no charge. Constellation assumes no responsibility to
update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future
developments except as expressly required by law.
Additional Information and Where to Find It. This communication is being made in respect of the proposed merger transaction involving Constellation and MidAmerican. In connection with the proposed transaction, Constellation will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a proxy statement and will mail the proxy statement to its shareholders. Shareholders are encouraged to read the proxy statement regarding the proposed transaction when it becomes available because it will contain important information. Shareholders will be able to obtain a free copy of the proxy statement, as well as other filings made by Constellation regarding Constellation, MidAmerican and the proposed transaction, without charge, at the Securities and Exchange Commission's Internet site (http://www.sec.gov).
