Dear Delmarva Power Stockholder:
We have previously sent to you proxy material for the Special Meeting of
Delmarva Power & Light Company on January 30, 1997. Your Board of Directors
has unanimously recommended that stockholders vote in favor of the proposed
merger with Atlantic Energy, Inc.
Approval of the merger requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of all
outstanding shares. Remember, if you do not vote, it will have the same effect
as a vote against the merger. Consequently 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,
Howard E. Cosgrove
