ITEM 5.  Other Events
- ---------------------

     As  announced in  September  1995,  BGE and Pepco had planned to merge into
Constellation Energy Corporation as soon as all conditions to closing the merger
were  satisfied.  On  December  22,  1997,  BGE and  Pepco  announced  they were
terminating  the  merger  agreement.  Specific  details  about the  decision  to
terminate the merger  agreement are included in Pepco's Report on Form 8-K dated
December 22, 1997 and BGE's Report on Form 8-K dated December 23, 1997.

     Constellation  Energy  Corporation  filed several  registration  statements
under the  Securities  Act of 1933 to  register  securities  needed for  various
Constellation Energy Corporation shareholder,  employee, and executive plans and
financing  programs  if the merger had  closed.  No  securities  were  issued by
Constellation  Energy  Corporation  under those  registration  statements.  As a
result of the announcement by both companies to terminate the merger  agreement,
Constellation  Energy  Corporation will deregister all securities  registered on
the registration statements.




                                    SIGNATURE


      Pursuant to the  requirements of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, the
