Edison International's earnings are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses core earnings (losses) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Core earnings (losses) are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International's earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company's performance from period to period. Core earnings (losses) are a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings (losses) are defined as earnings attributable to Edison International shareholders less non-core items. Non-core items include income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, such as write downs, asset impairments and other gains and losses related to certain tax, regulatory or legal settlements or proceedings, and exit activities, including sale of certain assets and other activities that are no longer continuing.
Edison International's first quarter 2019 earnings increased $60 million from the first quarter of 2018, resulting from an increase in Edison International Parent and Other's earnings of $53 million and an increase in SCE's earnings of $7 million . SCE's earnings consisted of $72 million of higher non-core income and $65 million of lower core earnings. The decrease in core earnings was primarily due to wildfire mitigation expenses and higher net financing costs, partially offset by a 2018 refund to customers for prior overcollections.
Edison International Parent and Other's increase in earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to lower core losses of $9 million and lower non-core losses of $44 million . The lower core losses were mainly due to lower corporate expenses and decreased losses at the competitive businesses under Edison Energy Group.

3






Consolidated non-core items for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018 primarily included:
Income tax benefits of $69 million recorded in 2019 for SCE related to changes in the allocation of deferred tax re-measurement between customers and shareholders as a result of a CPUC resolution issued in February 2019. The resolution determined that customers are only entitled to excess deferred taxes which were included when setting rates and other deferred tax re-measurement belongs to shareholders.
An impairment charge of $66 million ($48 million after-tax) recorded in 2018 for Edison International Parent and Other resulting from an agreement to sell SoCore Energy.
2018 General Rate Case
In February 2018, SCE updated its 2018 GRC application for the impact of Tax Reform resulting in a requested 2018 base rate revenue requirement of $5.534 billion, a decrease of $106 million over the 2017 GRC authorized revenue requirement.
In April 2019, the CPUC issued a 2018 GRC proposed decision, which if adopted, would result in a base rate revenue requirement of $5.102 billion in 2018, a decrease of $432 million from SCE's requested revenue requirement, primarily related to a reduction in authorized rate base, depreciation and operation and maintenance expenses. The proposed decision also identifies changes to certain balancing accounts, including the expansion of the TAMA to include the impacts of all differences between forecast and recorded tax expense. The proposed decision would also disallow certain historical spending, largely related to certain infrastructure replacement programs and corporate real estate.
The CPUC did not issue a decision on the 2018 GRC application during 2018 or during the first quarter of 2019, therefore SCE recognized revenue based on the 2017 authorized revenue requirement, adjusted for items SCE has determined to be probable of occurring, primarily the July 2017 cost of capital decision and Tax Reform. The CPUC has approved the establishment of a GRC memorandum account and the 2018 and 2019 revenue requirements ultimately adopted by the CPUC will be effective as of January 1, 2018 and January 1, 2019, respectively. The proposed decision, if adopted as drafted, would have a significant impact on SCE and Edison International’s reported results, including a non-core impairment of utility property, plant and equipment of up to $257 million ($185 million after-tax) related to disallowed historical capital expenditures and an increase to core earnings of approximately $130 million from application of the decision to revenue, depreciation and income tax expense retroactively for 2018 and the first quarter of 2019.
The proposed decision would allow a post-test year rate making mechanism that escalates capital additions by 2.49% for both 2019 and 2020. It would also allow operation and maintenance expenses to be escalated for 2019 and 2020 through the use of various escalation factors for labor, non-labor and medical expenses. The methodology set forth in the proposed decision would, if adopted by the CPUC, result in a revenue requirement of $5.422 billion in 2019 and $5.823 billion in 2020.
SCE will file comments on the proposed decision in May 2019 and SCE cannot predict when a final decision will be issued. A final decision could result in material changes to the proposed decision.
Capital Program
Total capital expenditures (including accruals) were $856 million and $853 million for the first three months of 2019 and 2018, respectively.
SCE's capital expenditure forecast for 2020 has been updated since the filing of the 2018 Form 10-K to reflect planned CPUC jurisdictional spending as informed by the 2018 GRC proposed decision and spending associated with SCE's wildfire mitigation-related capital expenditures under the GS&RP and WMP. The table below includes $346 million and a range of $500 million to $700 million of capital expenditures related to wildfire mitigation for 2019 and 2020, respectively. The CPUC has authorized tracking of costs related to the GS&RP and WMP through memorandum accounts. SCE has also proposed a balancing account for its GS&RP spending. If SCE's proposed balancing account in its GS&RP application is approved, forecasted costs for the GS&RP will be included in rates with a subsequent reasonableness review through the annual ERRA proceeding. On April 29, 2018, the CPUC issued a proposed decision that, if adopted, would approve SCE's 2019 WMP and, among other things, would require SCE to meet certain reporting requirements. SCE continues to evaluate wildfire mitigation spending and anticipates that in 2019 the CPUC will issue decisions on the GS&RP and 2019 WMP. SCE expects to file its 2020 WMP by early 2020. SCE anticipates that wildfire mitigation spending not addressed in balancing accounts will be addressed in future GRC applications or through other regulatory proceedings.

SCE forecasts capital expenditures for 2019 – 2020 to be approximately $8,896 million to $9,096 million. SCE's 2019 – 2020 forecast for major capital expenditures are set forth in the table below:

SCE's authorized CPUC-jurisdictional rate base is determined through the GRC and other regulatory proceedings. Differences between actual and CPUC authorized capital expenditures are addressed in subsequent GRC or other regulatory proceedings. FERC-jurisdictional rate base is generally determined based on actual capital expenditures.
Reflected below is SCE's weighted average annual rate base for 2018 – 2020 assuming the CPUC capital expenditures authorized in the 2018 GRC proposed decision are adopted as drafted and the expected FERC capital expenditures.

Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides
Approximately 35% of SCE's service territory is in areas identified as high fire risk by SCE. Multiple factors have contributed to increased wildfires, faster progression of wildfires and the increased damage from wildfires across SCE's service territory and throughout California. These include the buildup of dry vegetation in areas severely impacted by years of historic drought, lack of adequate clearing of hazardous fuels by responsible parties, higher temperatures, lower humidity, and strong Santa Ana winds. At the same time that wildfire risk has been increasing in Southern California, residential and commercial development has occurred and is occurring in some of the highest-risk areas. Such factors can increase the likelihood and extent of wildfires.
In December 2017 and November 2018, wind-driven wildfires impacted portions of SCE's service territory, causing substantial damage to both residential and business properties and service outages for SCE customers. The investigating government agencies, the VCFD and CAL FIRE, have determined that the largest of the 2017 fires originated on December 4, 2017, in the Anlauf Canyon area of Ventura County (the investigating agencies refer to this fire as the "Thomas Fire"), followed shortly thereafter by the Koenigstein Fire. While the progression of these two fires remains under review, the December 4, 2017 fires eventually burned substantial acreage in both Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. The largest of the November 2018 fires, known as the Woolsey Fire, originated in Ventura County and burned acreage in both Ventura and Los Angeles Counties.
In March 2019, the VCFD and CAL FIRE issued separate reports finding that the Thomas Fire and the Koenigstein Fire were each caused by SCE equipment. At this time, based on available information, SCE has not determined whether its equipment caused the Thomas Fire. Based on publicly available radar data showing a smoke plume in the Anlauf Canyon area emerging in advance of the start time of the Thomas Fire indicated in the Thomas Fire report, SCE believes that the Thomas Fire started at least 12 minutes prior to any issue involving SCE's system and at least 15 minutes prior to the start time indicated in the report. SCE has previously disclosed that SCE believed its equipment was associated with the ignition of the Koenigstein Fire. SCE is continuing to assess the progression of the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the extent of damages that may be attributable to each fire.
Multiple lawsuits related to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the Woolsey Fire have been initiated against SCE and Edison International. Some of the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires lawsuits claim that SCE and Edison International have responsibility for the damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides based on a theory that SCE has responsibility for the

5






Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires and that the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused the Montecito Mudslides.
SCE's internal review into the facts and circumstances of each of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events is ongoing, and SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of third parties during the course of its internal reviews and the litigation processes. Final determinations of liability for the Thomas Fire, the Koenigstein Fire, the Montecito Mudslides and the Woolsey Fire (each a "2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Event," and, collectively, the "2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events"), including determinations of whether SCE was negligent, would only be made during lengthy and complex litigation processes.
Even when investigations are still pending or liability is disputed, an assessment of likely outcomes, including through future settlement of disputed claims, may require a liability to be accrued under accounting standards. Based on information available to SCE and consideration of the risks associated with litigation, Edison International and SCE expect to incur a material loss in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and accrued a liability of $4.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2018. This liability corresponds to the lower end of the reasonably estimated range of expected potential losses that may be incurred in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and is subject to change as additional information becomes available.
Edison International and SCE will seek to offset any actual losses realized in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events with recoveries from insurance policies in place at the time of the events and, to the extent actual losses exceed insurance, through electric rates. In the fourth quarter of 2018, Edison International and SCE also recorded expected recoveries from insurance of $2.0 billion and expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $135 million, which is the FERC portion of the $4.7 billion liability it accrued. SCE believes that, in light of the CPUC's decision in a cost recovery proceeding involving SDG&E arising from several 2007 wildfires in SDG&E's service area, there is substantial uncertainty regarding how the CPUC will interpret and apply its prudency standard to an investor-owned utility in future wildfire cost-recovery proceedings. Accordingly, while the CPUC has not made a determination regarding SCE's prudency relative to any of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE is unable to conclude, at this time, that uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs are probable of recovery through electric rates.
Edison International and SCE continue to pursue legislative, regulatory and legal strategies to address the application of a strict liability standard to wildfire-related damages without the ability to recover resulting costs in electric rates. In April 2019, a strike force formed by California Governor Gavin Newsom released a report entitled Wildfires and Climate Change: California's Energy Future, which sets forth, among other things, guiding principles for potential reform to California policies regarding wildfire liability. While this report recommended that the Commission on Catastrophic Wildfire Cost and Recovery, the California legislature and the strike force continue working to develop a solution for consideration by the Governor and the legislature, Edison International and SCE cannot predict whether or when there will be a comprehensive solution mitigating the significant risk faced by California investor-owned utilities related to wildfires.
In April 2019, in addition to other requested increases in CPUC and FERC ROE, SCE requested from both the CPUC and FERC an additional 6% ROE to compensate investors for current wildfire risk. SCE would seek to reduce or remove this additional ROE if there is a material reduction in its wildfire cost recovery risk due to regulatory or legislative reform. For further details, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—2020 Cost of Capital Application" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—FERC Formula Rate—2019 FERC Formula Rate."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Southern California Edison Company
SCE's results of operations are derived mainly through two sources:
Earning activities – representing revenue authorized by the CPUC and FERC, which is intended to provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to recover its costs and earn a return on its net investment in generation, transmission, and distribution assets. The annual revenue requirements are comprised of authorized operation and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes, and a return consistent with the capital structure. Also, included in earnings activities are revenue or penalties related to incentive mechanisms, other operating revenue, and regulatory charges or disallowances.
Cost-recovery activities – representing CPUC- and FERC- authorized balancing accounts, which allow for recovery of specific project or program costs, subject to reasonableness review or compliance with upfront standards. Cost-recovery activities include rates which provide recovery, subject to reasonableness review of, among other things, fuel costs, purchased power costs, public purpose related-program costs (including energy efficiency and demand-side management programs), and certain operation and maintenance expenses. SCE earns no return on these activities.
The following table is a summary of SCE's results of operations for the periods indicated.

Earning Activities
Earning activities were primarily affected by the following:
Higher operating revenue of $37 million primarily due to the following:
An increase of $26 million in CPUC revenue primarily related to a $16 million refund to customers in 2018 for prior overcollections and $6 million related to the incremental return on rate base recorded through the pole loading balancing account.
An increase of $11 million in FERC revenue primarily due to higher operating costs subject to balancing account treatment (offset in operation and maintenance expenses and interest expense below).
Higher operation and maintenance costs of $80 million primarily due to wildfire mitigation costs, including enhanced overhead inspections, and other preventative maintenance costs.
Higher depreciation and amortization expense of $21 million primarily related to transmission and distribution investments.
Higher interest expense of $23 million primarily due to increased borrowings and higher interest on balancing account overcollections.
Lower other income and expense of $5 million primarily due to lower AFUDC equity income.
Higher income tax benefits of $99 million primarily due to higher non-core income tax benefits of $69 million related to changes in the allocation of deferred tax re-measurement between customers and shareholders and lower pre-tax income, excluding non-core items.
Cost-Recovery Activities
Cost-recovery activities were primarily affected by the following:
Higher purchased power and fuel costs of $79 million primarily driven by higher power and gas prices, lower congestion revenue right credits and higher charges from contract amendments, partially offset by lower load related to cooler weather and higher realized gains on hedging activities.
Higher operation and maintenance costs of $138 million primarily driven by the authorization to recover 2018 wildfire insurance costs that had been deferred as regulatory assets and higher spending on various public purpose programs and transmission access charges.
Lower other income and expense of $8 million primarily driven by lower net periodic benefit income related to the non-service cost components for SCE's other post-retirement benefit plans. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 9. Compensation and Benefit Plans" for further information.
Supplemental Operating Revenue Information
SCE's retail billed and unbilled revenue (excluding wholesale sales) was $2.6 billion and $2.4 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
The 2019 revenue increase is primarily related to higher cost-recovery activities related to 2018 wildfire insurance costs and higher purchased power and fuel costs driven by higher power and gas prices, lower congestion revenue right credits and higher charges from contract amendments, partially offset by lower load related to cooler weather. See "—Cost-Recovery Activities" for further details.
As a result of the CPUC-authorized decoupling mechanism, SCE earnings are not affected by changes in retail electricity sales.

Income Taxes
SCE's income tax benefit increased by $99 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.
The effective tax rates were (48.2)% and (1.9)% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. SCE's effective tax rate is below the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to CPUC's ratemaking treatment for the current tax benefit arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences, which reverse over time. The accounting treatment for these temporary differences results in recording regulatory assets and liabilities for amounts that would otherwise be recorded to deferred income tax expense. The effective tax rate decrease is primarily due to the change in the allocation of excess deferred tax re-measurement between customers and shareholders as a result of a CPUC resolution issued in February 2019.
See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 8. Income Taxes" for a reconciliation of the federal statutory rate to the effective income tax rates.
Edison International Parent and Other
Results of operations for Edison International Parent and Other include amounts from other Edison International subsidiaries that are not significant as a reportable segment, as well as intercompany eliminations.

The loss from continuing operations of Edison International Parent and Other decreased $53 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to the absence of an after-tax impairment charge of $48 million resulting from an agreement to sell SoCore Energy and lower corporate expenses.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
SCE
SCE's ability to operate its business, fund capital expenditures, and implement its business strategy is dependent upon its cash flow and access to the bank and capital markets. SCE's overall cash flows fluctuate based on, among other things, its ability to recover its costs in a timely manner from its customers through regulated rates, changes in commodity prices and volumes, collateral requirements, interest obligations, dividend payments to and equity contributions from Edison International, obligations to preferred and preference shareholders, and the outcome of tax and regulatory matters.
In the next 12 months, SCE expects to fund its cash requirements through operating cash flows, capital market financings, and equity contributions from Edison International, as needed. SCE also has availability under its credit facility to fund cash requirements.
SCE's long-term issuer credit ratings remain at investment grade levels after downgrade actions taken by the major credit agencies in March 2019. The following table summarizes SCE's current, long-term issuer credit ratings and outlook from the major credit rating agencies:

Watch Negative
SCE's credit ratings may be further affected by the ultimate outcome of pending enforcement and litigation matters, including the outcome of the uncertainties and potential liabilities associated with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, and the reform of policies allocating liability to investor-owned utilities for damages caused by catastrophic wildfires substantially caused by utility equipment. Credit rating downgrades increase the cost and may impact the availability of short-term and

9






long-term borrowings, including commercial paper, credit facilities, bond financings or other borrowings. In addition, some of SCE's power procurement contracts require SCE to pay related liabilities or post additional collateral if SCE's credit rating were to fall below investment grade rating from the major credit rating agencies. Incremental collateral requirements for power procurement contracts resulting from a potential downgrade of SCE's credit rating to below investment grade is $14 million as of March 31, 2019. In addition, if SCE's credit rating falls below investment grade, it may be required to post up to $50 million in collateral, in connection with its environmental remediation obligations, within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year in which the downgrade occurs. For further details, see "— Margin and Collateral Deposits."
Available Liquidity
At March 31, 2019 , SCE had approximately $2.8 billion available under its $3.0 billion credit facility. The credit facility is available for borrowing needs until May 2023 and contains two 1-year extension options. SCE borrowed $750 million under a term loan in February 2019 and issued $1.1 billion first and refunding mortgage bonds in March 2019. The proceeds from the term loan and the March 2019 bond issuances were used to repay commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements."
In April 2019, Edison International contributed $750 million to SCE, which SCE used to repay its February 2019 term loan discussed above.
SCE may finance balancing account undercollections and working capital requirements to support operations and capital expenditures with commercial paper, its credit facility or other borrowings, subject to availability in the bank and capital markets. As necessary, SCE will utilize its available liquidity, capital market financings, other borrowings or parent company contributions to SCE equity in order to meet its obligations as they become due, including any potential costs related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events (see "Management Overview—Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides" for further information).
Debt Covenant
A debt covenant in SCE's credit facility limits its debt to total capitalization ratio to less than or equal to 0.65 to 1. At March 31, 2019 , SCE's debt to total capitalization ratio was 0.52 to 1.
At March 31, 2019 , SCE was in compliance with all other financial covenants that affect access to capital.
Capital Investment Plan
Major Transmission Projects
Eldorado-Lugo-Mohave Upgrade
In April 2019, SCE filed an amended application for a certificate of public convenience and necessity with the CPUC, which included total project costs of $257 million, an increase of $24 million to the previous estimate.
Regulatory Proceedings
2020 Cost of Capital Application
In April 2019, SCE filed its application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for a three-year term, beginning January 1, 2020. In its application, SCE seeks a return on common equity of 10.60% for 2020 ("CPUC Base ROE"), compared to its current CPUC ROE of 10.30%. In addition to this CPUC Base ROE, SCE seeks an additional ROE of 6% to compensate investors for current wildfire risk ("CPUC Wildfire Risk ROE"). SCE would seek to reduce or remove this CPUC Wildfire Risk ROE if there is a material reduction in its wildfire cost recovery risk due to regulatory or legislative reform.
SCE also seeks to modify its current capital structure to increase the common equity component of its capital structure from its current authorized level of 48% to 52% in 2020 and correspondingly reduce its preferred equity from 9% to 5%. If this change is not approved, SCE seeks a higher CPUC Base ROE of 10.9% to account for the increased leverage. SCE does not propose to change its currently authorized level of long-term debt of 43%. In the application, SCE projects a cost of long-term debt of 4.74% and an embedded cost of preferred equity of 5.70% and requests that the CPUC authorize these costs for 2020. Based on the capital structure and cost factors discussed above, SCE proposes a weighted average return on rate base of 10.96% for 2020.

10






SCE proposes to maintain the current Cost of Capital Mechanism ("CCM"), which provides for an automatic modification of ROE, long-term debt and preferred equity costs in intervening years based on fluctuations in interest rates. In its application, SCE proposes to change the CCM so that it only applies to CPUC Base ROE, not to the CPUC Wildfire Risk ROE.
Assuming that the revenue requirement in SCE's pending 2018 GRC request, including the proposed post-test year ratemaking mechanism, is adopted, SCE's proposed cost of capital and capital structure will result in a projected revenue requirement increase in 2020 of approximately $1.2 billion from revenue currently included in electric rates of $11.1 billion.

FERC Formula Rate
2018 Formula Rate
The formula rate that SCE filed in 2017, with a January 1, 2018 effective date, is still pending resolution and is currently in settlement discussions. As a result, SCE's 2018 FERC rates remain subject to refund.
2019 Formula Rate
In April 2019, SCE filed an application with FERC to amend the formula rate associated with its transmission facilities in 2019. In the revised formula rate, SCE seeks a base return on equity of 17.12% ("FERC Base ROE"), compared to its proposed base ROE of 10.30% for its 2018 formula rate. The requested FERC Base ROE reflects a conventional ROE of 11.12% and an additional ROE of 6% to compensate investors for current wildfire risk. SCE would seek to reduce or remove the additional wildfire risk ROE if there is a material reduction in its wildfire cost recovery risk due to regulatory or legislative reform. SCE's total ROE request, inclusive of project incentives and a 0.5% incentive for CAISO participation, is approximately 18.4%.
If the new formula rate is accepted by FERC, it will supersede the existing formula rate, including the 2019 annual update, and could become effective as early as 60 days from the filing date. FERC has the authority to, and may, suspend new rates for up to five months. If the new formula rate is suspended by FERC, the 2019 transmission revenue requirement rate established in the 2019 annual update will continue to be effective, subject to refund, from January 1, 2019 until the end of the suspension of the new formula rate. The new formula rate would likely be subject to refund from the end of the suspension until it is ultimately approved by FERC.
If the revised formula rate becomes effective on June 12, 2019 (the effective date requested by SCE), SCE's proposed revisions to its formula rate will result in a projected increase in its retail base transmission revenue requirement in 2019 of approximately $290 million from the currently effective retail base transmission revenue requirement of approximately $1 billion.
SCE Dividends
CPUC holding company rules require that SCE's dividend policy be established by SCE's Board of Directors on the same basis as if SCE were a stand-alone utility company, and that the capital requirements of SCE, as deemed to be necessary to meet SCE's electricity service obligations, shall receive first priority from the Boards of Directors of both Edison
International and SCE. In addition, the CPUC regulates SCE's capital structure which limits the dividends it may pay to its shareholders. Under SCE's interpretation of CPUC regulations, the common equity component of SCE's capital structure must remain at or above 48% on a weighted average basis over the 37-month period that SCE's capital structure is in effect for ratemaking purposes.
Under SCE's interpretation of the CPUC's capital structure decisions, SCE is required to file an application for a waiver of the 48% equity ratio condition discussed above if an adverse financial event reduces its spot equity ratio below 47%. On February 28, 2019, SCE submitted an application to the CPUC for waiver of compliance with this equity ratio
requirement, describing that while the charge accrued in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events caused its equity ratio to fall below 47% on a spot basis as of December 31, 2018, SCE remains in compliance with the 48% equity ratio over the applicable 37-month average basis. In its application, SCE requested a limited waiver to exclude wildfire-related charges and wildfire-related debt issuances from its equity ratio calculations until a determination regarding cost recovery is made. Under the CPUC's rules, SCE will not be deemed to be in violation of the equity ratio requirement, and therefore may continue to issue debt and dividends, while the waiver application is pending resolution. For further information, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies—Contingencies—Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides." At March 31, 2019 , without excluding the $1.8 billion after-tax wildfire related charge incurred in 2018, SCE's 37-month average common equity component of total capitalization was 49.3% and the maximum additional dividend that SCE could pay to Edison International under this limitation was $356 million, resulting in a restriction on net assets of approximately $13.5 billion. If the waiver had been approved by CPUC at March 31,

11






2019 , SCE's 37-month average common equity component of total capitalization would have been 49.7%. In its 2020 cost of capital application filed in April 2019, SCE seeks to modify its current capital structure to increase the common equity component of its capital structure from its current authorized level of 48% to 52% in 2020. For further details, see "—Regulatory Proceedings—2020 Cost of Capital Application" above.
As a California corporation, SCE's ability to pay dividends is also governed by the California General Corporation Law. California law requires that for a dividend to be declared: (a) retained earnings must equal or exceed the proposed dividend, or (b) immediately after the dividend is made, the value of the corporation's assets must exceed the value of its liabilities plus amounts required to be paid, if any, in order to liquidate stock senior to the shares receiving the dividend. Additionally, a California corporation may not declare a dividend if it is, or as a result of the dividend would be, likely to be unable to meet its liabilities as they mature. Prior to declaring dividends, SCE's Board of Directors evaluates available information, including when applicable, information pertaining to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, to ensure that the California law requirements for the declarations are met.
The timing and amount of future dividends are also dependent on a number of other factors including SCE's requirements to fund other obligations and capital expenditures, and its ability to access the capital markets, and generate operating cash flows and earnings. If SCE incurs significant costs related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and is unable to recover such costs through insurance or from customers or access capital markets on reasonable terms, SCE may be limited in its ability to pay future dividends to Edison international and its preferred and preference shareholders.
Margin and Collateral Deposits
Certain derivative instruments, power procurement contracts and other contractual arrangements contain collateral requirements. In addition, certain environmental remediation obligations require financial assurance that may be in the form of collateral postings. Future collateral requirements may differ from the requirements at March 31, 2019 due to the addition of incremental power and energy procurement contracts with collateral requirements, if any, and the impact of changes in wholesale power and natural gas prices on SCE's contractual obligations, and the impact of SCE's credit ratings falling below investment grade.
The table below provides the amount of collateral posted by SCE to its counterparties as well as the potential collateral that would have been required as of March 31, 2019 .

Incremental collateral requirements were based on potential changes in SCE's forward positions as of March 31, 2019 due to adverse market price movements over the remaining lives of existing power contracts using a 95% confidence level.
Edison International Parent and Other
In the next 12 months, Edison International expects to fund its net cash requirements through capital market and bank financings, including by issuing additional debt and equity, as needed.
In April 2019, Edison International registered additional shares of its common stock with the SEC. Edison International anticipates issuing up to $1.5 billion of registered shares of common stock, including through designated broker-dealers at prevailing market prices (an at-the-market offering), and anticipates using the proceeds for equity contributions to SCE and for general corporate and working capital purposes. Also, in April 2019, Edison International entered into a $1.0 billion term loan. Of the proceeds of the term loan, $750 million was contributed to SCE and the remainder of the proceeds will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements." Edison International believes that these contributions will enable SCE to increase the

12






common equity component of its capital structure to 52% in 2020 as proposed in SCE's Cost of Capital application filed with the CPUC in April 2019.
Edison International also has availability under its credit facility. At March 31, 2019 , Edison International Parent had approximately $1.3 billion available under its $1.5 billion credit facility. The credit facility is available for borrowing needs until May 2023 and contains two 1-year extension options. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements."
Edison International Parent and Other's liquidity and its ability to pay operating expenses and pay dividends to common shareholders are dependent on access to the bank and capital markets, dividends from SCE, realization of tax benefits, and its ability to meet California law requirements for the declaration of dividends. Prior to declaring dividends, Edison International's Board of Directors evaluates available information, including when applicable, information pertaining to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, to ensure that the California law requirements for the declarations are met. For information on the California law requirements on the declaration of dividends, see "—SCE—SCE Dividends." Edison International intends to maintain its target payout ratio of 45% – 55% of SCE's core earnings, subject to the factors identified above. Edison International may finance common stock dividends, working capital requirements, payment of obligations, and capital investments, including capital contributions to subsidiaries, with short-term or other financings, subject to availability in the bank and capital markets.
A debt covenant in Edison International Parent's credit facility requires a consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio as defined in the credit agreement of less than or equal to 0.70 to 1. At March 31, 2019 , Edison International Parent's consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio was 0.57 to 1.
At March 31, 2019 , Edison International Parent was in compliance with all financial covenants that affect access to capital.
Edison International Parent's long-term issuer credit ratings remain at investment grade levels after downgrade actions taken by the major credit rating agencies in March 2019.

Changes in working capital items include receivables, inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, tax receivables and payables, and other current assets and liabilities.
3 Includes the nuclear decommissioning trusts. See "Nuclear Decommissioning Activities" below for further information.
Net cash provided by operating activities was impacted by the following:
Net income and non-cash items decreased in 2019 by $88 million primarily due to wildfire mitigation expenses and higher net financing costs, partially offset by a 2018 refund to customers for prior overcollections.
Net cash for working capital was $(271) million and $ (354) million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Net cash for working capital in 2019 was primarily impacted by insurance premium payments of $413 million for wildfire-related coverage. The net cash for each period was also impacted by changes in receivables from customers of $32 million and $(222) million in 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Net cash provided by regulatory assets and liabilities, including changes in overcollections of balancing accounts was $(96) million and $405 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. SCE has a number of balancing accounts, which impact cash flows based on differences between timing of collection of amounts through rates and accrual expenditures. Cash flows were primarily impacted by the following:
2019
BRRBA overcollections decreased by $346 million primarily due to a $163 million reclassification from the pole loading balancing account to BRRBA to recover 2017 undercollections, authorization to recover $107 million of premiums related to a wildfire insurance policy purchased in 2017, lower sales than forecasted in rates and a refund of prior TAMA overcollections.
Net undercollections for ERRA and the new system generation program were $831 million and $741 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Net undercollections increased $90 million primarily due to higher than forecasted power and gas prices experienced in 2019, partially offset by an increase in cash due to recovery of prior ERRA undercollections.
Net overcollections for TAMA and pole loading balancing account were $128 million at March 31, 2019 compared to net undercollections of $28 million at December 31, 2018. Net overcollections increased by $156 million primarily due to a $163 million reclassification from the pole loading balancing account to BRRBA as discussed above.
Higher cash due to $104 million of overcollections for the public purpose and energy efficiency programs resulting from lower program spending.
Higher cash from increased regulatory liabilities of approximately $90 million primarily due to the delay in the 2018 GRC decision. Amounts billed to customers during first three months of 2019 were based on the 2017 authorized GRC revenue requirement, however, the amount of revenue recognized has been adjusted mainly for the July 2017 cost of capital decision and Tax Reform pending the outcome of the 2018 GRC and therefore, a regulatory liability has been established to record any associated adjustments.

14






2018
Higher cash due to $143 million of overcollections for the public purpose and energy efficiency programs resulting from lower program spending.
BRRBA overcollections increased by $122 million during the first three months of 2018 primarily due to the timing of revenue, partially offset by a refund of 2016 incremental tax benefits.
Higher cash of $42 million due to cash collected for San Onofre under the Prior San Onofre Settlement Agreement.
Higher cash reflected in regulatory liabilities of approximately $90 million primarily due to the delay in the 2018 GRC decision.
Cash flows used in other noncurrent assets and liabilities were primarily related to net earnings from nuclear decommissioning trust investments ( $27 million and $30 million in 2019 and 2018, respectively) and SCE's payments of decommissioning costs ( $73 million and $41 million in 2019 and 2018, respectively). See "Nuclear Decommissioning Activities" below for further discussion.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities are primarily due to capital expenditures related to transmission and distribution investments ($ 1.1 billion for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018). In addition, SCE had a net redemption of nuclear decommissioning trust investments of $73 million and $24 million during the first three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See "Nuclear Decommissioning Activities" below for further discussion.

Net cash used in operating activities relates to interest and dividends less administrative expenses, taxes, and SCE's decommissioning costs. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 10. Investments" for further information. Investing activities represent the purchase and sale of investments within the nuclear decommissioning trusts, including the

reinvestment of earnings from nuclear decommissioning trust investments. The net cash impact reflects timing of decommissioning payments ( $73 million and $41 million in 2019 and 2018, respectively) and reimbursements to SCE from the nuclear decommissioning trust ($100 million and $54 million in 2019 and 2018, respectively).

Contingencies
SCE has contingencies related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, wildfire insurance, Montecito Mudslides, Environmental Remediation, Nuclear Insurance and Spent Nuclear Fuel, which are discussed in "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies."
MARKET RISK EXPOSURES
Edison International's and SCE's primary market risks are described in the 2018 Form 10-K. For a further discussion of market risk exposures, including commodity price risk, credit risk, and interest rate risk, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 4. Fair Value Measurements" and "—Note 6. Derivative Instruments."
Commodity Price Risk
SCE records derivative instruments on its consolidated balance sheets as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value unless otherwise exempted from derivative treatment as normal purchases or sales. The fair value of outstanding derivative instruments used to mitigate exposure to commodity price risk was reflected as a net asset of $110 million and $167 million on SCE's consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. For further discussion of fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 4. Fair Value Measurements" and "— Note 6. Derivative Instruments."

16






Credit Risk
Credit risk exposure from counterparties for power and gas trading activities is measured as the sum of net accounts receivable (accounts receivable less accounts payable) and the current fair value of net derivative assets (derivative assets less derivative liabilities) reflected on the consolidated balance sheets. SCE enters into master agreements which typically provide for a right of setoff. Accordingly, SCE's credit risk exposure from counterparties is based on a net exposure under these arrangements. SCE manages the credit risk on the portfolio for both rated and non-rated counterparties based on credit ratings using published ratings of counterparties and other publicly disclosed information, such as financial statements, regulatory filings, and press releases, to guide it in the process of setting credit levels, risk limits, and contractual arrangements, including master netting agreements.
The amount of balance sheet exposure as described above broken down by the credit ratings of SCE's counterparties, was as follows:

SCE assigns a credit rating based on the lower of a counterparty's S&P or Moody's rating. For ease of reference, the above table uses the S&P classifications to summarize risk, but reflects the lower of the credit ratings from S&P or Moody's.
2  
Exposure excludes amounts related to contracts classified as normal purchases and sales and non-derivative contractual commitments that are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, except for any related net accounts receivable.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES
For a complete discussion on Edison International's and SCE's critical accounting policies, see "Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies" in the year-ended 2018 MD&A.
NEW ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
New accounting guidance is discussed in "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—New Accounting Guidance."
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Basis of Presentation
Edison International is the parent holding company of Southern California Edison Company ("SCE") and Edison Energy Group, Inc. ("Edison Energy Group"). SCE is an investor-owned public utility primarily engaged in the business of supplying and delivering electricity to an approximately 50,000 square mile area of southern California. Edison Energy Group is a holding company for Edison Energy, LLC ("Edison Energy") which is engaged in the competitive business of providing energy services to commercial and industrial customers. Edison Energy's business activities are currently not material to report as a separate business segment. These combined notes to the consolidated financial statements apply to both Edison International and SCE unless otherwise described. Edison International's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edison International, SCE, and other wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. References to Edison International refer to the consolidated group of Edison International and its subsidiaries. References to "Edison International Parent and Other" refer to Edison International Parent and its competitive subsidiaries and "Edison International Parent" refer to Edison International on a stand-alone basis, not consolidated with its subsidiaries. SCE's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SCE and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Edison International's and SCE's significant accounting policies were described in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" included in Edison International's and SCE's combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the "2018 Form 10-K"). This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of recurring accruals, have been made that are necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for the periods covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
The December 31, 2018 financial statement data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash equivalents include investments in money market funds. Generally, the carrying value of cash equivalents equals the fair value, as these investments have original maturities of three months or less. The cash equivalents were as follows:

Revenue Recognition
Regulatory Proceedings
2018 General Rate Case
In February 2018, SCE updated its 2018 General Rate Case ("GRC") application for the impact of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Reform") resulting in a requested 2018 base rate revenue requirement of $5.534 billion , a decrease of $106 million over the 2017 GRC authorized revenue requirement.
In April 2019, the CPUC issued a 2018 GRC proposed decision, which if adopted, would result in a base rate revenue requirement of $5.102 billion in 2018, a decrease of $432 million from SCE's requested revenue requirement, primarily related to a reduction in authorized rate base, depreciation and operation and maintenance expenses. The proposed decision also identifies changes to certain balancing accounts, including the expansion of the TAMA to include the impacts of all differences between forecast and recorded tax expense. The proposed decision would also disallow certain historical spending, largely related to certain infrastructure replacement programs and corporate real estate.
The CPUC did not issue a decision on the 2018 GRC application during 2018 or during the first quarter of 2019, therefore SCE recognized revenue based on the 2017 authorized revenue requirement, adjusted for items SCE has determined to be probable of occurring, primarily the July 2017 cost of capital decision and Tax Reform. The CPUC has approved the establishment of a GRC memorandum account and the 2018 and 2019 revenue requirements ultimately adopted by the CPUC will be effective as of January 1, 2018 and January 1, 2019, respectively. See Note 11 for further details. The proposed decision, if adopted as drafted, would have a significant impact on SCE and Edison International’s reported results, including an impairment of utility property, plant and equipment of up to $257 million ( $185 million after-tax) related to disallowed historical capital expenditures and an increase to earnings of approximately $130 million from application of the decision to revenue, depreciation and income tax expense retroactively for 2018 and the first quarter of 2019.
The proposed decision would allow a post-test year rate making mechanism that escalates capital additions by 2.49% for both 2019 and 2020. It would also allow operation and maintenance expenses to be escalated for 2019 and 2020 through the use of various escalation factors for labor, non-labor and medical expenses. The methodology set forth in the proposed decision would, if adopted by the CPUC, result in a revenue requirement of $5.422 billion in 2019 and $5.823 billion in 2020.
SCE will file comments on the proposed decision in May 2019 and SCE cannot predict when a final decision will be issued. A final decision could result in material changes to the proposed decision.
FERC Formula Rate
In October 2017, SCE filed its new formula rate with the FERC. In December 2017, the FERC issued an order setting the effective date of SCE's new FERC formula rate as of January 1, 2018, subject to settlement procedures and refund. In November 2018, SCE filed its 2019 annual update with the FERC with the proposed rates effective January 1, 2019, subject to settlement procedures and refund, and requested a decrease in transmission revenue requirement of $131 million , or 11% from amounts currently authorized in rates. Pending resolution of the FERC formula rate proceedings, SCE recognized

28






revenue in 2018 and during the first quarter of 2019 based on the FERC formula rate adjusted for the impact of Tax Reform and other adjustments.
In April 2019, SCE filed an application with FERC to amend the formula rate associated with its transmission facilities in 2019. In the revised formula rate, SCE seeks a base return on equity of 17.12% ("FERC Base ROE"), compared to its proposed base ROE of 10.30% for its 2018 formula rate. The requested FERC Base ROE reflects a conventional ROE of 11.12% and an additional ROE of 6% to compensate investors for current wildfire risk. SCE would seek to reduce or remove the additional wildfire risk ROE if there is a material reduction in its wildfire cost recovery risk due to regulatory or legislative reform. SCE's total ROE request, inclusive of project incentives and a 0.5% incentive for CAISO participation, is approximately 18.4% .
If the new formula rate is accepted by FERC, it will supersede the existing formula rate, including the 2019 annual update, and could become effective as early as 60 days from the filing date. FERC has the authority to, and may, suspend new rates for up to five months . If the new formula rate is suspended by FERC, the 2019 transmission revenue requirement rate established in the 2019 annual update will continue to be effective, subject to refund, from January 1, 2019 until the end of the suspension of the new formula rate. The new formula rate would likely be subject to refund from the end of the suspension until it is ultimately approved by FERC.
If the revised formula rate becomes effective on June 12, 2019 (the effective date requested by SCE), SCE's proposed revisions to its formula rate will result in a projected increase in its retail base transmission revenue requirement in 2019 of approximately $290 million from the currently effective retail base transmission revenue requirement of approximately $1 billion .
See Note 7 for further information on SCE's revenue.
Earnings Per Share
Edison International computes earnings per common share ("EPS") using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating security. Edison International's participating securities are stock-based compensation awards payable in common shares, including restricted stock units, which earn dividend equivalents on an equal basis with common shares once the awards are vested. EPS attributable to Edison International common shareholders was computed as follows:

In addition to the participating securities discussed above, Edison International also may award stock options, which are payable in common shares and are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation. Stock option awards to purchase 7,719,306 and 6,222,294 shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, were outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been antidilutive.
New Accounting Guidance
Accounting Guidance Adopted
On January 1, 2019, Edison International and SCE adopted accounting standards updates that require lessees to recognize a lease on the balance sheet as a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and related lease liability and classify the lease as either operating or finance. Edison International and SCE adopted this guidance using the modified retrospective approach for leases that existed as of the adoption date and elected the optional transition method not to restate periods prior to the adoption date. Edison International and SCE also elected the package of practical expedients not to reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs, and the practical expedient not to reassess existing land easements. Adoption of this standard increased ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets by $956 million and $951 million as of January 1, 2019 for Edison International and SCE, respectively. The standard did not materiality impact the consolidated statements of income for Edison International or SCE.
Based on accounting standards adopted at January 1, 2019, a lease is defined as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration. This occurs when an entity has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset. SCE determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception, and for all classes of assets, SCE includes both lease and non-lease components as a single component and accounts for it as a lease. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Lease ROU assets are based on the liability, subject to adjustments, such as lease incentives. In measuring lease assets and liabilities, SCE excludes variable lease payments, other than those that depend on an index, a rate or are in substance fixed payments and includes lease payments made at or before the commencement date. SCE's lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised. Operating leases are included in operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 13 for further information.
In February 2018, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide entities an election to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from Tax Reform from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. Stranded tax effects originated in December 2017 when deferred taxes were re-measured at the lower federal corporate tax rate with the impact included in operating income, while the tax effects of items within accumulated other comprehensive income were not similarly adjusted. Edison International and SCE adopted this guidance on January 1, 2019 and reclassified stranded tax effects of $10 million and $5 million , respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. See Notes 2 and 14 for further information.
In August 2018, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to remove, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement. Edison International and SCE adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Edison International and SCE's disclosures. See Note 4 for further information.
Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
The FASB issued an accounting standards update in June 2016, and further amended the guidance in November 2018, related to the impairment of financial instruments, effective January 1, 2020. The new guidance provides an impairment model, known as the current expected credit loss model, which is based on expected credit losses rather than incurred losses over the remaining life of most financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade and other receivables. The guidance also requires use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities. Edison International and SCE are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance and do not expect the adoption of the guidance will have material impact on Edison International and SCE.
In January 2017, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment by changing the procedural steps to apply the goodwill impairment test. After the adoption of this accounting standards update, goodwill impairment will be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Edison International will apply this guidance to goodwill impairment tests beginning in 2020.

30






In August 2018, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which aligns the requirement for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance also clarified presentation requirements for reporting implementation costs in the financial statements. The guidance is effective January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted. Edison International and SCE are currently evaluating the impact of the guidance.
In August 2018, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to remove, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements related to employer-sponsored defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. The guidance is effective January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. Edison International and SCE are currently evaluating the impact of the guidance and do not expect the adoption of this standard will materially affect disclosures.

Note 3.    Variable Interest Entities
A variable interest entity ("VIE") is defined as a legal entity that meets one of two conditions: (1) the equity owners do not have sufficient equity at risk, or (2) the holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lack any of the following three characteristics: decision-making rights, the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The primary beneficiary is identified as the variable interest holder that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE. Commercial and operating activities are generally the factors that most significantly impact the economic performance of such VIEs. Commercial and operating activities include construction, operation and maintenance, fuel procurement, dispatch, and compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements.
Variable Interest in VIEs that are not Consolidated
Power Purchase Agreements
SCE has power purchase agreements ("PPAs") that are classified as variable interests in VIEs, including tolling agreements through which SCE provides the natural gas to fuel the plants, contracts with qualifying facilities that contain variable pricing provisions based on the price of natural gas and renewable energy contracts through which SCE absorbs commodity price risk. SCE has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs since it does not control the commercial and operating activities of these entities. Since payments for capacity are the primary source of income, the most significant economic activity for these VIEs is the operation and maintenance of the power plants.
As of the balance sheet date, the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in SCE's consolidated balance sheet that relate to involvement with VIEs result from current amounts due under the PPAs. Under these contracts, SCE recovers the costs incurred through demonstration of compliance with its California Public Utilities Commission ("CPUC")-approved long-term power procurement plans. SCE has no residual interest in the entities and has not provided or guaranteed any debt or equity support, liquidity arrangements, performance guarantees, or other commitments associated with these contracts other than the purchase commitments described in Note 11 of the 2018 Form 10-K. As a result, there is no significant potential exposure to loss to SCE from its variable interest in these VIEs. The aggregate contracted capacity dedicated to SCE from these VIE projects was 4,722 MW and 3,454  MW at March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and the amounts that SCE paid to these projects were $153 million and $143 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. These amounts are recoverable in customer rates, subject to reasonableness review.

33






Unconsolidated Trusts of SCE
SCE Trust II, Trust III, Trust IV, Trust V, and Trust VI were formed in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively, for the exclusive purpose of issuing the 5.10% , 5.75% , 5.375% , 5.45% , and 5.00% trust preference securities, respectively ("trust securities"). The trusts are VIEs. SCE has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as it does not have the obligation to absorb the expected losses or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the trusts. SCE Trust II, Trust III, Trust IV, Trust V and Trust VI issued to the public trust securities in the face amounts of $400 million , $275 million , $325 million , $300 million , and $475 million (cumulative, liquidation amounts of $25 per share), respectively, and $10,000 of common stock each to SCE. The trusts invested the proceeds of these trust securities in Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K, and Series L Preference Stock issued by SCE in the principal amounts of $400 million , $275 million , $325 million , $300 million , and $475 million (cumulative, $2,500 per share liquidation values), respectively, which have substantially the same payment terms as the respective trust securities.
The Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K, and Series L Preference Stock and the corresponding trust securities do not have a maturity date. Upon any redemption of any shares of the Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K, or Series L Preference Stock, a corresponding dollar amount of trust securities will be redeemed by the applicable trust. The applicable trust will make distributions at the same rate and on the same dates on the applicable series of trust securities if and when the SCE Board of Directors declares and makes dividend payments on the related Preference Stock. The applicable trust will use any dividends it receives on the related Preference Stock to make its corresponding distributions on the applicable series of trust securities. If SCE does not make a dividend payment to any of these trusts, SCE would be prohibited from paying dividends on its common stock. SCE has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the payment of the trust securities and trust distributions, if and when SCE pays dividends on the related Preference Stock.
The Trust II, Trust III, Trust IV, Trust V and Trust VI balance sheets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , consisted of investments of $400 million , $275 million , $325 million , $300 million , and $475 million in the Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K and Series L Preference Stock, respectively, $400 million , $275 million , $325 million , $300 million , and $475 million of trust securities, respectively, and $10,000 each of common stock.

Note 4.    Fair Value Measurements
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (referred to as an "exit price"). Fair value of an asset or liability considers assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about nonperformance risk. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , nonperformance risk was not material for Edison International and SCE.
Assets and liabilities are categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on valuation inputs used to determine fair value.
Level 1 – The fair value of Edison International's and SCE's Level 1 assets and liabilities is determined using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are available at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities. This level includes exchange-traded equity securities, U.S. treasury securities, mutual funds, and money market funds.
Level 2 – Edison International's and SCE's Level 2 assets and liabilities include fixed income securities, primarily consisting of U.S. government and agency bonds, municipal bonds and corporate bonds, and over-the-counter derivatives. The fair value of fixed income securities is determined using a market approach by obtaining quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument.

34






The fair value of SCE's over-the-counter derivative contracts is determined using an income approach. SCE uses standard pricing models to determine the net present value of estimated future cash flows. Inputs to the pricing models include forward published or posted clearing prices from an exchange (Intercontinental Exchange) for similar instruments and discount rates. A primary price source that best represents trade activity for each market is used to develop observable forward market prices in determining the fair value of these positions. Broker quotes, prices from exchanges, or comparison to executed trades are used to validate and corroborate the primary price source. These price quotations reflect mid-market prices (average of bid and ask) and are obtained from sources believed to provide the most liquid market for the commodity.
Level 3 – The fair value of SCE's Level 3 assets and liabilities is determined using an income approach through various models and techniques that require significant unobservable inputs. This level includes derivative contracts that trade infrequently such as congestion revenue rights ("CRRs"). Edison International Parent and Other does not have any Level 3 assets and liabilities.
Assumptions are made in order to value derivative contracts in which observable inputs are not available. In circumstances where fair value cannot be verified with observable market transactions, it is possible that a different valuation model could produce a materially different estimate of fair value. Modeling methodologies, inputs, and techniques are reviewed and assessed as markets continue to develop and more pricing information becomes available and the fair value is adjusted when it is concluded that a change in inputs or techniques would result in a new valuation that better reflects the fair value of those derivative contracts. See Note 6 for a discussion of derivative instruments.

Nuclear Decommissioning Trusts
SCE's nuclear decommissioning trust investments include equity securities, U.S. treasury securities, and other fixed income securities. Equity and treasury securities are classified as Level 1 as fair value is determined by observable market prices in active or highly liquid and transparent markets. The remaining fixed income securities are classified as Level 2. The fair value of these financial instruments is based on evaluated prices that reflect significant observable market information such as reported trades, actual trade information of similar securities, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, bids, offers, and relevant credit information. There are no securities classified as Level 3 in the nuclear decommissioning trusts.

Note 5.    Debt and Credit Agreements
Long-Term Debt
In March 2019, SCE issued $500 million of 4.20% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2029 and $600 million of 4.875% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2049 . The proceeds were used to repay commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes.
Credit Agreements and Short-Term Debt
In February 2019, SCE borrowed $750 million under a Term Loan Agreement due in February 2020, with a variable interest rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 70 basis points. The proceeds were used to repay SCE's commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes.
In April 2019, Edison International borrowed $1.0 billion under a Term Loan Agreement due in April 2020, with a variable interest rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 90 basis points. Of the proceeds of the term loan, $750 million was contributed to SCE and the remainder of the proceeds will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes. In April 2019, SCE used the $750 million Edison International contributed to SCE to repay its February 2019 Term Loan discussed above.

37






SCE and Edison International Parent have multi-year revolving credit facilities of $3.0 billion and $1.5 billion , respectively, both facilities maturing in May 2023 and have two 1-year extension options. SCE's credit facility is generally used to support commercial paper borrowings and letters of credit issued for procurement-related collateral requirements, balancing account undercollections and for general corporate purposes, including working capital requirements to support operations and capital expenditures. Edison International Parent's credit facility is used to support commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes.
At March 31, 2019 , SCE's outstanding commercial paper, net of discount, was $ 29 million at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.15% . At March 31, 2019 , letters of credit issued under SCE's credit facility aggregated $209 million , substantially all of which are scheduled to expire in twelve months or less. At December 31, 2018 , the outstanding commercial paper, net of discount, was $720 million at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.23% .
At March 31, 2019 , Edison International Parent's outstanding commercial paper, net of discount, was $153 million at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.03% . At December 31, 2018 , Edison International Parent had no outstanding commercial paper.
Note 6.    Derivative Instruments
Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposure to commodity price risk. These risks are managed in part by entering into forward commodity transactions, including options, swaps and futures. To mitigate credit risk from counterparties in the event of nonperformance, master netting agreements are used whenever possible and counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.
Commodity Price Risk
Commodity price risk represents the potential impact that can be caused by a change in the market value of a particular commodity. SCE's electricity price exposure arises from energy purchased from and sold to wholesale markets as a result of differences between SCE's load requirements and the amount of energy delivered from its generating facilities and PPAs. SCE's natural gas price exposure arises from natural gas purchased for the Mountainview power plant and peaker plants, QF contracts where pricing is based on a monthly natural gas index and PPAs in which SCE has agreed to provide the natural gas needed for generation, referred to as tolling arrangements.
Credit and Default Risk
Credit and default risk represent the potential impact that can be caused if a counterparty were to default on its contractual obligations and SCE would be exposed to spot markets for buying replacement power or selling excess power. In addition, SCE would be exposed to the risk of non-payment of accounts receivable, primarily related to the sales of excess power and realized gains on derivative instruments.
Certain power and gas contracts contain master netting agreements or similar agreements, which generally allow counterparties subject to the agreement to offset amounts when certain criteria are met, such as in the event of default. The objective of netting is to reduce credit exposure. Additionally, to reduce SCE's risk exposures counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.
Certain power and gas contracts contain a provision that requires SCE to maintain an investment grade rating from each of the major credit rating agencies, referred to as a credit-risk-related contingent feature. If SCE's credit rating were to fall below investment grade, SCE may be required to post additional collateral to cover derivative liabilities and the related outstanding payables. The net fair value of all derivative liabilities with these credit-risk-related contingent features was $1 million and $4 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, for which SCE has posted no collateral and $17 million collateral at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, to its counterparties for its derivative liabilities and related outstanding payables. If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements were triggered on March 31, 2019 , SCE would be required to post $1 million of additional collateral.

38






Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
SCE presents its derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis on its consolidated balance sheets when subject to master netting agreements or similar agreements. Derivative positions are also offset against margin and cash collateral deposits. In addition, SCE has provided collateral in the form of letters of credit. Collateral requirements can vary depending upon the level of unsecured credit extended by counterparties, changes in market prices relative to contractual commitments and other factors. See Note 4 for a discussion of fair value of derivative instruments. The following table summarizes the gross and net fair values of SCE's commodity derivative instruments:

3 At March 31, 2019, SCE posted $11 million of cash collateral that is not offset against derivative liabilities and is reflected in "Other current assets" on the consolidated balance sheets.
Income Statement Impact of Derivative Instruments
SCE recognizes realized gains and losses on derivative instruments as purchased power expense and expects that such gains or losses will be part of the purchased power costs recovered from customers. As a result, realized gains and losses do not affect earnings, but may temporarily affect cash flows. Due to expected future recovery from customers, unrealized gains and losses are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities and therefore also do not affect earnings. The remaining effects of derivative activities and related regulatory offsets are reported in cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Note 7.    Revenue
Earning activities – representing revenue authorized by the CPUC and FERC, which is intended to provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to recover its costs and earn a return on its net investment in generation, transmission, and distribution assets. The annual revenue requirements are comprised of authorized operation and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes, and a return consistent with the capital structure. Also, included in earnings activities are revenue or penalties related to incentive mechanisms, other operating revenue, and regulatory charges or disallowances.
Cost-recovery activities – representing CPUC- and FERC- authorized balancing accounts, which allow for recovery of specific project or program costs, subject to reasonableness review or compliance with upfront standards. Cost-recovery activities include rates which provide recovery, subject to reasonableness review of, among other things, fuel costs, purchased power costs, public purpose related-program costs (including energy efficiency and demand-side management programs), and certain operation and maintenance expenses. SCE earns no return on these activities.

In the absence of a 2018 GRC decision, SCE recognized CPUC revenue in 2018 and the three months ended March 31, 2019 based on the 2017 authorized revenue requirement adjusted mainly for the July 2017 cost of capital decision and Tax Reform. In April 2019, the CPUC issued a proposed decision, which, if adopted would result in 2018 and 2019 base rate revenue requirements of $5.102 billion and $5.422 billion , respectively. For further information, see Note 1.

Relates to changes in the allocation of deferred tax re-measurement between customers and shareholders as a result of a CPUC resolution issued in February 2019. The resolution determined that customers are only entitled to excess deferred taxes which were included when setting rates, while other deferred tax re-measurement belongs to the shareholders.
The CPUC requires flow-through ratemaking treatment for the current tax benefit arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences which reverse over time. Flow-through items reduce current authorized revenue requirements in SCE's rate cases and result in a regulatory asset for recovery of deferred income taxes in future periods. The difference between the authorized amounts as determined in SCE's rate cases, adjusted for balancing and memorandum account activities, and the recorded flow-through items also result in increases or decreases in regulatory assets with a corresponding impact on the effective tax rate to the extent that recorded deferred amounts are expected to be recovered in future rates. For further information, see Note 11.
Tax Disputes
Tax years that remain open for examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and the California Franchise Tax Board are 2015 – 2017 and 2010 – 2017, respectively. Edison International has settled all open tax positions with the IRS for taxable years prior to 2013. 
In the fourth quarter of 2018, Edison International reached a settlement with the California Franchise Tax Board for tax years 1994 – 2006 and has updated its uncertain tax positions to reflect this settlement. As a result of the settlement, Edison International expects a $65 million refund of tax and interest from the California Franchise Tax Board in 2019. Tax years 2007 – 2009 are currently under protest with the California Franchise Tax Board.

Short-term investments include $35 million and $71 million of repurchase agreements payable by financial institutions which earn interest, are fully secured by U.S. Treasury securities and mature by April 1, 2019 and January 2, 2019 as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively.
Trust fund earnings (based on specific identification) increase the trust fund balance and the asset retirement obligation ("ARO") regulatory liability. Unrealized holding gains, net of losses, were $1.6 billion and $1.4 billion at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, and other-than-temporary impairments of $162 million and $170 million at the respective periods.
Trust assets are used to pay income taxes arising from trust investing activity. Deferred tax liabilities related to net unrealized gains were $366 million and $323 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. Accordingly, the fair value of trust assets available to pay future decommissioning costs, net of deferred income taxes, totaled $3.9 billion and $3.8 billion at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively.

Note 12.    Commitments and Contingencies
Indemnities
Edison International and SCE have various financial and performance guarantees and indemnity agreements which are issued in the normal course of business.
Edison International and SCE have agreed to provide indemnifications through contracts entered into in the normal course of business. These are primarily indemnifications against adverse litigation outcomes in connection with underwriting agreements, and indemnities for specified environmental liabilities and income taxes with respect to assets sold. Edison International's and SCE's obligations under these agreements may or may not be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances Edison International and SCE may have recourse against third parties. Edison International and SCE have not recorded a liability related to these indemnities. The overall maximum amount of the obligations under these indemnifications cannot be reasonably estimated.
SCE has agreed to indemnify the City of Redlands, California in connection with the Mountainview power plant's California Energy Commission permit for cleanup or associated actions related to groundwater contaminated by perchlorate due to the disposal of filter cake at the City's solid waste landfill. The obligations under this agreement are not limited to a specific time period or subject to a maximum liability. As of March 31, 2019, there has been no groundwater contamination identified. Thus, SCE has not recorded a liability related to this indemnity.
Contingencies
In addition to the matters disclosed in these Notes, Edison International and SCE are involved in other legal, tax, and regulatory proceedings before various courts and governmental agencies regarding matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Edison International and SCE believe the outcome of these other proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, materially affect its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides
Approximately  35%  of SCE's service territory is in areas identified as high fire risk by SCE. Multiple factors have contributed to increased wildfires, faster progression of wildfires and the increased damage from wildfires across SCE's service territory and throughout California. These include the buildup of dry vegetation in areas severely impacted by years of historic drought, lack of adequate clearing of hazardous fuels by responsible parties, higher temperatures, lower humidity, and strong Santa Ana winds. At the same time that wildfire risk has been increasing in Southern California, residential and commercial development has occurred and is occurring in some of the highest-risk areas. Such factors can increase the likelihood and extent of wildfires.
In December 2017 and November 2018, wind-driven wildfires impacted portions of SCE's service territory, causing substantial damage to both residential and business properties and service outages for SCE customers. The investigating government agencies, the Ventura County Fire Department ("VCFD") and California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection ("CAL FIRE"), have determined that the largest of the 2017 fires originated on December 4, 2017, in the Anlauf Canyon area of Ventura County (the investigating agencies refer to this fire as the "Thomas Fire"), followed shortly thereafter by a second fire that originated near Koenigstein Road in the City of Santa Paula (the "Koenigstein Fire"). While the progression of these two fires remains under review, the December 4, 2017 fires eventually burned substantial acreage in both Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. According to CAL FIRE information, the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires burned over  280,000  acres, destroyed or damaged an estimated  1,343  structures and resulted in  two  fatalities. The largest of the November 2018 fires, known as the Woolsey Fire, originated in Ventura County and burned acreage in both Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. According to CAL FIRE information, the Woolsey Fire burned almost  100,000  acres, destroyed an estimated  1,643  structures, damaged an estimated  364  structures and resulted in  three  fatalities.
As described below, multiple lawsuits related to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the Woolsey Fire have been initiated against SCE and Edison International. Some of the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires lawsuits claim that SCE and Edison International have responsibility for the damages caused by mudslides and flooding in Montecito and surrounding areas in January 2018 (the "Montecito Mudslides") based on a theory that SCE has responsibility for the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires and that the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused the Montecito Mudslides. According to Santa Barbara County initial reports, the Montecito Mudslides destroyed an estimated  135  structures, damaged an estimated  324  structures, and resulted in  21  fatalities, with  two additional fatalities presumed.
The extent of liability for wildfire-related damages in actions against utilities depends on a number of factors, including whether SCE substantially caused or contributed to the damages and whether parties seeking recovery of damages will be

46






required to show negligence in addition to causation. California courts have previously found utilities to be strictly liable for property damage along with associated interest and attorneys' fees, regardless of fault, by applying the theory of inverse condemnation when a utility's facilities were determined to be a substantial cause of a wildfire that caused the property damage. If inverse condemnation is held to be inapplicable to SCE in connection with a wildfire, SCE still could be held liable for property damages and associated interest if the property damages were found to have been proximately caused by SCE's negligence. If SCE were to be found negligent, SCE could also be held liable for, among other things, fire suppression costs, business interruption losses, evacuation costs, clean-up costs, medical expenses, and personal injury/wrongful death claims. Additionally, SCE could potentially be subject to fines for alleged violations of CPUC rules and state laws in connection with the ignition of a wildfire.
Final determinations of liability for the Thomas Fire, the Koenigstein Fire, the Montecito Mudslides and the Woolsey Fire (each a "2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Event," and, collectively, the "2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events"), including determinations of whether SCE was negligent, would only be made during lengthy and complex litigation processes. Even when investigations are still pending or liability is disputed, an assessment of likely outcomes, including through future settlement of disputed claims, may require a liability to be accrued under accounting standards. Based on information available to SCE and consideration of the risks associated with litigation, Edison International and SCE expect to incur a material loss in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and accrued a liability of  $4.7 billion  in the fourth quarter of 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2018, Edison International and SCE also recorded expected recoveries from insurance of  $2.0 billion  and expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of  $135 million . The net charge to earnings recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018 was  $1.8 billion  after-tax. The liability that was accrued corresponds to the lower end of the reasonably estimated range of expected potential losses that may be incurred in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and is subject to change as additional information becomes available. Edison International and SCE will seek to offset any actual losses realized with recoveries from insurance policies in place at the time of the events and, to the extent actual losses exceed insurance, through electric rates. The CPUC and FERC may not allow SCE to recover uninsured losses through electric rates if it is determined that such losses were not reasonably or prudently incurred. See "—Loss Estimates for Third Party Claims and Potential Recoveries from Insurance and through Electric Rates" for additional information.
External Investigations and Internal Review
The VCFD and CAL FIRE have issued reports concerning their findings regarding the causes of the Thomas Fire and the Koenigstein Fire. The VCFD and CAL FIRE findings do not determine legal causation of or assign legal liability for the Thomas or Koenigstein Fires; final determinations of legal causation and liability would only be made during lengthy and complex litigation. The reports did not address the causes of the Montecito Mudslides. SCE expects that the VCFD and CAL FIRE will ultimately also issue a report concerning the departments' findings of origin and cause of the Woolsey Fire but cannot predict when this report will be released. The CPUC's Safety Enforcement Division ("SED") is also conducting investigations to assess SCE's compliance with applicable rules and regulations in areas impacted by the fires. SCE cannot predict when the SED's investigations will be completed.
SCE's internal review into the facts and circumstances of each of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events is complex and time consuming. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of third parties during the course of its internal reviews and the litigation processes.
Thomas Fire
On March 13, 2019, the VCFD and CAL FIRE issued a report concluding, after ruling out other possible causes, that the Thomas Fire was started by SCE power lines coming into contact during high winds, resulting in molten metal falling to the ground. However, the report does not state that molten metal was found on the ground in that location during their investigation. At this time, based on available information, SCE has not determined whether its equipment caused the Thomas Fire. Based on publicly available radar data showing a smoke plume in the Anlauf Canyon area emerging in advance of the report's indicated start time, SCE believes that the Thomas Fire started at least 12 minutes prior to any issue involving SCE's system and at least 15 minutes prior to the start time indicated in the report. SCE is continuing to assess the progression of the Thomas Fire and the extent of damages that may be attributable to that fire.
Koenigstein Fire
On March 20, 2019, the VCFD and CAL FIRE issued a report finding that the Koenigstein Fire was caused when an energized SCE electrical wire separated and fell to the ground along with molten metal particles and ignited the dry vegetation below. SCE has previously disclosed that SCE believed its equipment was associated with the ignition of the

47






Koenigstein Fire. SCE is continuing to assess the progression of the Koenigstein Fire and the extent of damages that may be attributable to that fire.
Montecito Mudslides
SCE's internal review includes inquiry into whether the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused or contributed to the Montecito Mudslides, whether, and to what extent, the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires were responsible for the damages in the Montecito area and other factors that potentially contributed to the losses that resulted from the Montecito Mudslides. Many other factors, including, but not limited to, weather conditions and insufficiently or improperly designed and maintained debris basins, roads, bridges and other channel crossings, could have proximately caused, contributed to or exacerbated the losses that resulted from the Montecito Mudslides. At this time, based on available information, SCE has not been able to determine whether the Thomas Fire or the Koenigstein Fire, or both, were responsible for the damages in the Montecito area. In the event that SCE is determined to have caused the fire that spread to the Montecito area, SCE cannot predict whether, if fully litigated, the courts would conclude that the Montecito Mudslides were caused or contributed to by the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires or that SCE would be liable for some or all of the damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides.
Woolsey Fire
SCE's internal review into the facts and circumstances of the Woolsey Fire is ongoing. SCE has reported to the CPUC that there was an outage   on SCE's electric system in the vicinity of where the Woolsey Fire reportedly began on November 8, 2018. SCE is aware of witnesses who saw fire in the vicinity of SCE's equipment at the time the fire was first reported. While SCE did not find evidence of downed electrical wires on the ground in the suspected area of origin, it observed a pole support wire in proximity to an electrical wire that was energized prior to the outage. Whether the November 8, 2018 outage was related to contact being made between the support wire and the electrical wire has not been determined. SCE believes that its equipment could be found to have been associated with the ignition of the Woolsey Fire. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of CAL FIRE and others during the course of its internal review and the Woolsey Fire litigation process, including SCE equipment that has been retained by CAL FIRE.
Wildfire-related Litigation
Multiple lawsuits related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events naming SCE as a defendant have been filed. A number of the lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant and some of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles Counties in the case of the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the Montecito Mudslides, and in Ventura and Los Angeles Counties in the case of the Woolsey Fire, allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, trespass, private nuisance, personal injury, wrongful death, and violations of the California Public Utilities and Health and Safety Codes. SCE expects to be the subject of additional lawsuits related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. The litigation could take a number of years to be resolved because of the complexity of the matters and number of plaintiffs.
The Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and Montecito Mudslides lawsuits are being coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court. The Woolsey Fire lawsuits have also been coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court. On October 4, 2018, the Superior Court denied Edison International's and SCE's challenge to the application of inverse condemnation to SCE with respect to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and, on February 26, 2019, the California Supreme Court denied SCE's petition to review the Superior Court's decision. In January 2019, SCE filed a cross-complaint against certain governmental entities alleging that failures by these entities, such as failure to adequately plan for flood hazards and build and maintain adequate debris basins, roads, bridges and other channel crossings, among other things, caused, contributed to or exacerbated the losses that resulted from the Montecito Mudslides.
Additionally, in July 2018 and September 2018,  two  separate derivative lawsuits for breach of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment were filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court against certain current and former members of the Boards of Directors of Edison International and SCE. Edison International and SCE are identified as nominal defendants in those actions. The derivative lawsuits generally allege that the individual defendants violated their fiduciary duties by causing or allowing SCE to operate in an unsafe manner in violation of relevant regulations, resulting in substantial liability and damage from the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the Montecito Mudslides.
In November 2018, a purported class action lawsuit alleging securities fraud and related claims was filed in the federal court against EIX, SCE and certain current and former officers of Edison International and SCE. The plaintiff alleges that Edison International and SCE made false and/or misleading statements in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission by failing to disclose that SCE had allegedly failed to maintain its electric transmission and distribution networks in compliance with safety regulations, and that those alleged safety violations led to fires that occurred in 2018, including the Woolsey Fire.

48






In January 2019,  two  separate derivative lawsuits alleging breach of fiduciary duties, securities fraud, misleading proxy statements, unjust enrichment, and related claims were filed in federal court against all current and certain former members of the Boards of Directors and certain current and former officers of Edison International and SCE. Edison International and SCE are named as nominal defendants in those actions. The derivative lawsuits generally allege that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties and made misleading statements or allowed misleading statements to be made (i) between March 21, 2014 and August 10, 2015, with respect to certain ex parte communications between SCE and CPUC decision-makers concerning the settlement of the San Onofre Order Instituting Investigation proceeding (the "San Onofre OII") and (ii) from February 23, 2016 to the present, concerning compliance with applicable laws and regulations concerning electric system maintenance and operations related to wildfire risks. The lawsuits generally allege that these breaches of duty and misstatements led to substantial liability and damage resulting from the disclosure of SCE's ex parte communications in connection with the San Onofre OII settlement, and from the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. For more information regarding the San Onofre OII, see Note 12 in the 2018 Form 10-K.
Loss Estimates for Third Party Claims and Potential Recoveries from Insurance and through Electric Rates
The process for estimating losses associated with wildfire litigation claims requires management to exercise significant judgment based on a number of assumptions and subjective factors, including but not limited to estimates based on currently available information and assessments, opinions regarding litigation risk, and prior experience with litigating and settling other wildfire cases. As additional information becomes available, management estimates and assumptions regarding the causes and financial impact of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events may change. Such additional information is expected to become available from multiple external sources, during the course of litigation, and from SCE's ongoing internal review, including, among other things, information regarding the extent of damages that may be attributable to any fire determined to have been substantially caused by SCE's equipment, information that may be obtained from the equipment in CAL FIRE's possession, and information pertaining to fire progression, suppression activities, alleged damages and insurance claims.
As described above, the  $1.8 billion  after-tax liability corresponds to the lower end of the reasonably estimated range of expected losses that may be incurred in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and is subject to change as additional information becomes available. Edison International and SCE currently believe that it is reasonably possible that the amount of the actual loss will be greater than the amount accrued. However, Edison International and SCE are currently unable to reasonably estimate an upper end of the range of expected losses given the uncertainty as to the legal and factual determinations to be made during litigation, including uncertainty as to the contributing causes of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, the complexities associated with fires that merge, whether inverse condemnation will be held applicable to SCE with respect to damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides, and the preliminary nature of the litigation processes.
For events that occurred in 2017 and early 2018, principally the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and Montecito Mudslides, SCE has  $1 billion  of wildfire-specific insurance coverage, subject to a self-insured retention of  $10 million  per occurrence. SCE also had other general liability insurance coverage of approximately  $450 million , but it is uncertain whether these other policies would apply to liabilities alleged to be related to the Montecito Mudslides. For the Woolsey Fire, SCE has an additional  $1 billion  of wildfire-specific insurance coverage, subject to a self-insured retention of  $10 million  per occurrence. Edison International and SCE record a receivable for insurance recoveries when recovery of a recorded loss is determined to be probable. At March 31, 2019, Edison International and SCE had recorded  $2.0 billion  for expected insurance recoveries associated with the recorded loss for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. SCE will seek to recover uninsured costs resulting from the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events through electric rates. The amount of the receivable is subject to change based on additional information. Recovery of these costs is subject to approval by regulators. Under accounting standards for rate-regulated enterprises, SCE defers costs as regulatory assets when it concludes that such costs are probable of future recovery in electric rates. SCE utilizes objectively determinable evidence to form its view on probability of future recovery. The only directly comparable precedent in which a California investor-owned utility has sought recovery for uninsured wildfire-related costs is SDG&E's requests for cost recovery related to 2007 wildfire activity, where FERC allowed recovery of all FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs while the CPUC rejected recovery of all CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs based on a determination that SDG&E did not meet the CPUC's prudency standard. As a result, while SCE does not agree with the CPUC's decision, it believes that the CPUC's interpretation and application of the prudency standard to SDG&E creates substantial uncertainty regarding how that standard will be applied to an investor-owned utility in future wildfire cost-recovery proceedings. SCE will continue to evaluate the probability of recovery based on available evidence, including guidance that may be issued by the Commission on Catastrophic Wildfire Cost and Recovery, and new judicial, legislative and regulatory decisions, including any CPUC decisions illustrating the interpretation and/or application of the prudency standard when making determinations regarding recovery of uninsured wildfire-related costs. While the CPUC has not made a determination regarding SCE's prudency relative to any of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE is unable to conclude, at this time, that uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs are probable of recovery through electric rates. SCE would record a regulatory asset at the time it obtains sufficient information to support a

49






conclusion that recovery is probable. SCE will seek recovery of the CPUC portion of any uninsured wildfire-related costs through its WEMA. See "—Recovery of Wildfire-Related Costs" below.
Through the operation of its FERC Formula Rate, and based upon the precedent established in SDG&E's recovery of FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs, SCE believes it is probable it will recover its FERC-jurisdictional wildfire and mudslide related costs and has recorded a regulatory asset of  $135 million , the FERC portion of the  $4.7 billion  liability accrued.
At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the balance sheets include estimated losses (established at the lower end of the reasonably estimated range of expected losses) of  $4.7 billion  for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.
Current Wildfire Insurance Coverage
SCE has approximately  $1 billion  of wildfire-specific insurance coverage, subject to a self-insured retention of  $10 million  per occurrence, for events (including the Woolsey fire) during the period June 30, 2018 through May 31, 2019. If the  $1 billion  of insurance coverage is exhausted as a result of liabilities related to the Woolsey Fire, SCE has approximately  $735 million  of wildfire-specific insurance coverage for wildfire events during the period February 1, 2019 through May 31, 2019, subject to a self-insured retention of  $35 million  per occurrence and up to  $15 million  of co-insurance, which results in net coverage of approximately $685 million . SCE has also obtained approximately $1.2 billion  of wildfire-specific insurance coverage for events that may occur during the period June 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, subject to up to $115 million of co-insurance and $50 million of self-insured retention, which results in net coverage of approximately $1 billion . SCE expects its coverage for this period to be subject to an initial self-insured retention of $10 million  per occurrence, but, based on policies currently in place, SCE's coverage for the period is subject to a self-insurance retention of $50 million per occurrence. SCE may obtain additional wildfire-specific insurance for this time period in the future. Various coverage limitations within the policies that make up SCE's wildfire insurance coverage could result in additional material self-insured costs in the event of multiple wildfire occurrences during a policy period or with a single wildfire with damages in excess of the policy limits.
SCE's cost of obtaining wildfire insurance coverage has increased significantly as a result of, among other things, the number of recent and significant wildfire events throughout California and the application of inverse condemnation to investor-owned utilities. As such, SCE may not be able to obtain sufficient wildfire insurance at a reasonable cost.
Based on policies currently in effect, SCE anticipates that its wildfire insurance expense, prior to any regulatory deferrals, will total approximately  $399 million  during 2019. Wildfire insurance expense will increase in 2019 if SCE obtains additional wildfire-specific insurance. In February 2019, the CPUC approved recovery of  $107 million of the costs incurred by SCE to obtain a 12-month,  $300 million  wildfire insurance policy in December 2017. As a result of this decision, SCE will recover these insurance premiums during 2019. As of March 31, 2019, SCE had regulatory assets of  $148 million  related to wildfire insurance costs and believes that such amounts are probable of recovery. While SCE believes that amounts deferred are probable of recovery, there is no assurance that SCE will be allowed to recover costs that have been incurred, or costs incurred in the future for additional wildfire insurance, in electric rates.
Recovery of Wildfire-Related Costs
California courts have previously found investor-owned utilities to be strictly liable for property damage, regardless of fault, by applying the theory of inverse condemnation when a utility's facilities were determined to be a substantial cause of a wildfire that caused the property damage. The rationale stated by these courts for applying this theory to investor-owned utilities is that property damages resulting from a public improvement, such as the distribution of electricity, can be spread across the larger community that benefited from such improvement through recovery of uninsured wildfire-related costs in electric rates. However, in November 2017, the CPUC issued a decision denying SDG&E's request to include in its rates uninsured wildfire-related costs arising from several 2007 wildfires, finding that SDG&E did not prudently manage and operate its facilities prior to or at the outset of the 2007 wildfires. In July 2018, the CPUC denied both SDG&E's application for rehearing on its cost recovery request and a joint application for rehearing filed by SCE and PG&E limited to the applicability of inverse condemnation principles in the same proceeding. The California Court of Appeal and the California Supreme Court have denied SDG&E's petitions for review of the CPUC's denial of SDG&E's application.
In September 2018, California Senate Bill 901 ("SB 901") was signed by the Governor of California. Although SB 901 does not address the strict liability standard imposed by courts in inverse condemnation actions, the bill as enacted introduces a number of considerations the CPUC can apply to determine whether costs are recoverable in electric rates for wildfires occurring on or after January 1, 2019, including, among other things, the utility's actions, circumstances beyond the utility's control and the impact of extreme climate conditions. SB 901 requires investor-owned utilities to prepare annually, for CPUC approval, wildfire risk mitigation plans, and compliance with an approved plan is one of the factors that the CPUC can consider in addressing cost recovery. On February 6, 2019, in compliance with SB 901, SCE filed its wildfire mitigation plan

50






for 2019. While SCE takes the position in its wildfire mitigation plan that substantial compliance with the plan, once approved, will demonstrate that SCE prudently operated its system and met the CPUC's prudent manager standard regarding wildfire risk mitigation, the CPUC may not agree with SCE's position. Pursuant to the requirements of SB 901, a Commission on Catastrophic Wildfire Cost and Recovery was formed in January 2019 to examine, among other things, the socialization of catastrophic wildfire costs in an equitable manner. SB901 also provides an opportunity for utilities to securitize costs that are deemed just and reasonable by the CPUC for wildfires that occur after January 1, 2019 and, to the extent costs exceed the maximum amount the utility can pay without harming ratepayers or materially impacting the utility's ability to provide adequate and safe services, for wildfires that occurred in 2017. Based on events and information available to date, SCE believes it is unlikely that it will seek to use this mechanism to securitize costs incurred in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.
Edison International and SCE continue to pursue legislative, regulatory and legal strategies to address the application of a strict liability standard to wildfire-related damages without the ability to recover resulting costs in electric rates. In April 2019, a strike force formed by California Governor Gavin Newsom released a report entitled Wildfires and Climate Change: California's Energy Future that sets forth, among other things, guiding principles for potential reform of California policies regarding wildfire liability. While this report recommended that the Commission on Catastrophic Wildfire Cost and Recovery, the California legislature and the strike force continue working to develop a solution for consideration by the Governor and the legislature, Edison International and SCE cannot predict whether or when there will be a comprehensive solution mitigating the significant risk faced by California investor-owned utilities related to wildfires.
In April 2019, in addition to other requested increases to its CPUC and FERC returns on common equity, SCE requested from both the CPUC and FERC an additional 6% return on common equity to compensate investors for current wildfire risk. SCE would seek to reduce or remove this additional return on common equity if there is a material reduction in its wildfire cost recovery risk due to regulatory or legislative reform.
Environmental Remediation
SCE records its environmental remediation liabilities when site assessments and/or remedial actions are probable and a range of reasonably likely cleanup costs can be estimated. SCE reviews its sites and measures the liability quarterly, by assessing a range of reasonably likely costs for each identified site using currently available information, including existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations, experience gained at similar sites, and the probable level of involvement and financial condition of other potentially responsible parties. These estimates include costs for site investigations, remediation, operation and maintenance, monitoring, and site closure. Unless there is a single probable amount, SCE records the lower end of this reasonably likely range of costs (reflected in "Other long-term liabilities") at undiscounted amounts as timing of cash flows is uncertain.
At March 31, 2019 , SCE's recorded estimated minimum liability to remediate its 21 identified material sites (sites with a liability balance at March 31, 2019 , in which the upper end of the range of the costs is at least $1 million ) was $136 million , including $89 million related to San Onofre. In addition to these sites, SCE also has 15 immaterial sites with a liability balance as of March 31, 2019 , for which the total minimum recorded liability was $4 million . Of the $140 million total environmental remediation liability for SCE, $135 million has been recorded as a regulatory asset. SCE expects to recover $43 million through an incentive mechanism that allows SCE to recover 90% of its environmental remediation costs at certain sites (SCE may request to include additional sites) and $92 million through a mechanism that allows SCE to recover 100% of the costs incurred at certain sites through customer rates. SCE's identified sites include several sites for which there is a lack of currently available information, including the nature and magnitude of contamination, and the extent, if any, that SCE may be held responsible for contributing to any costs incurred for remediating these sites. Thus, no reasonable estimate of cleanup costs can be made for these sites.
The ultimate costs to clean up SCE's identified sites may vary from its recorded liability due to numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, such as: the extent and nature of contamination; the scarcity of reliable data for identified sites; the varying costs of alternative cleanup methods; developments resulting from investigatory studies; the possibility of identifying additional sites; and the time periods over which site remediation is expected to occur. SCE believes that, due to these uncertainties, it is reasonably possible that cleanup costs at the identified material sites and immaterial sites could exceed its recorded liability by up to $138 million and $7 million , respectively. The upper limit of this range of costs was estimated using assumptions least favorable to SCE among a range of reasonably possible outcomes.
SCE expects to clean up and mitigate its identified sites over a period of up to 30 years. Remediation costs for each of the next five years are expected to range from $7 million to $24 million . Costs incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $2 million and $4 million , respectively.

51






Based upon the CPUC's regulatory treatment of environmental remediation costs incurred at SCE, SCE believes that costs ultimately recorded will not materially affect its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. There can be no assurance, however, that future developments, including additional information about existing sites or the identification of new sites, will not require material revisions to estimates.
Nuclear Insurance
SCE is a member of NEIL, a mutual insurance company owned by entities with nuclear facilities. NEIL provides insurance for nuclear property damage, including damages caused by acts of terrorism up to specified limits, and for accidental outages for active facilities. The amount of nuclear property damage insurance purchased for San Onofre and Palo Verde exceeds the minimum federal requirement of $50 million and $1.06 billion , respectively. If NEIL losses at any nuclear facility covered by the arrangement were to exceed the accumulated funds for these insurance programs, SCE could be assessed retrospective premium adjustments of up to approximately $52 million per year.
Federal law limits public offsite liability claims for bodily injury and property damage from a nuclear incident to the amount of available financial protection, which is currently approximately $14.1 billion for Palo Verde and $560 million for San Onofre. SCE and other owners of San Onofre and Palo Verde have purchased the maximum private primary insurance available through a Facility Form issued by American Nuclear Insurers ("ANI"). SCE withdrew from participation in the secondary insurance pool for San Onofre for offsite liability insurance effective January 5, 2018. Based on its ownership interests in Palo Verde, SCE could be required to pay a maximum of approximately $65 million per nuclear incident for future incidents. However, it would have to pay no more than approximately $10 million per future incident in any one year. SCE could be required to pay a maximum of approximately $255 million per nuclear incident and a maximum of $38 million per year per incident for liabilities arising from events prior to January 5, 2018, although SCE is not aware of any such events.
Spent Nuclear Fuel
Under federal law, the DOE is responsible for the selection and construction of a facility for the permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste. The DOE has not met its contractual obligation to accept spent nuclear fuel. Extended delays by the DOE have led to the construction of costly alternatives and associated siting and environmental issues. Currently, both San Onofre and Palo Verde have interim storage for spent nuclear fuel on site sufficient for their current license period.
In June 2010, the United States Court of Federal Claims issued a decision granting SCE and the San Onofre co-owners damages of approximately $142 million (SCE's share $112 million ) to recover costs incurred through December 31, 2005 for the DOE's failure to meet its obligation to begin accepting spent nuclear fuel from San Onofre. SCE received payment from the federal government in the amount of the damage award. In April 2016, SCE, as operating agent, settled a lawsuit on behalf of the San Onofre owners against the DOE for $162 million (SCE's share $124 million , which included reimbursement for approximately $2 million in legal and other costs), to compensate for damages caused by the DOE's failure to meet its obligation to begin accepting spent nuclear fuel for the period from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2013. In August 2018, the CPUC approved SCE's proposal to return the SCE share of the award to customers based on the amount that customers actually contributed for fuel storage costs; resulting in approximately  $105.6 million  of the SCE share being returned to customers and the remaining  $16.6 million  being returned to shareholders. Of the $105.6 million , $71.6 million was applied against the remaining San Onofre Regulatory Asset in accordance with the Revised San Onofre Settlement Agreement.
The April 2016 settlement also provided for a claim submission/audit process for expenses incurred from 2014 – 2016, where SCE may submit a claim for damages caused by the DOE failure to accept spent nuclear fuel each year, followed by a government audit and payment of the claim. This process made additional legal action to recover damages incurred in 2014 –2016 unnecessary. The first such claim covering damages for 2014 – 2015 was filed on September 30, 2016 for approximately $56 million . In February 2017, the DOE reviewed the 2014 – 2015 claim submission and reduced the original request to approximately $ 43 million (SCE's share was approximately $34 million ). SCE accepted the DOE's determination, and the government paid the 2014 – 2015 claim under the terms of the settlement. In October 2017, SCE filed a claim covering damages for 2016 for approximately $58 million . In May 2018, the DOE approved reimbursement of approximately $45 million (SCE's share was approximately $35 million ) of SCE's 2016 damages, disallowing recovery of approximately $13 million . SCE accepted the DOE's determination, and the government paid the 2016 claim under the terms of the settlement. The damages awards are subject to CPUC review as to how the amounts will be refunded among customers, shareholders, or to offset other costs.

Note 13.    Leases
Leases as Lessee
SCE has entered into various agreements to purchase power, electric capacity and other energy products that may be accounted for as leases as SCE has dispatch rights that determine when and how a plant runs. Prior to January 1, 2019, a power purchase agreement contained a lease when SCE purchased substantially all of the output from a specific plant and did not otherwise meet a fixed price unit of output exception. SCE also leases property and equipment primarily related to vehicles, office space and other equipment. The terms of the contracts included in the table below are 5 to 20 years for PPA leases, 5 to 72 years for office leases, and 5 to 12 years for the remaining other operating leases.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Thomas Fire and Koenigstein Fire Litigation
In December 2017, wind-driven wildfires impacted portions of SCE's service territory, causing substantial damage to both residential and business properties and service outages for SCE customers. The VCFD and CAL FIRE have determined that the largest of the 2017 fires originated on December 4, 2017, in the Anlauf Canyon area of Ventura County (the investigating agencies refer to this fire as the "Thomas Fire"), followed shortly thereafter by the Koenigstein Fire. According to CAL FIRE information, the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires burned over 280,000 acres, destroyed or damages an estimated 1,343 structures and resulted in two fatalities.
As of April 26, 2019, SCE was aware of at least 151 lawsuits, representing approximately 2,300 plaintiffs, related to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires naming SCE as a defendant. Seventy-eight of these lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. At least four of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles Counties allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, trespass, private nuisance, and violations of the public utilities and health and safety codes. The lawsuits have been coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court.
For further information, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies—Contingencies—Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides."
Montecito Mudslides Litigation
In January 2018, torrential rains in Santa Barbara County produced mudslides and flooding in Montecito and surrounding areas. According to Santa Barbara County initial reports, the Montecito Mudslides destroyed an estimated 135 structures, damaged an estimated 324 structures, and resulted in at least 21 fatalities, with two additional fatalities presumed.
Sixty-eight of the 151 lawsuits mentioned under "Thomas Fire and Koenigstein Fire Litigation" above allege that SCE has responsibility for the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires and that the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused the Montecito Mudslides, resulting in the plaintiffs' claimed damages. Twenty-seven of the 68 Montecito Mudslides lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. In addition to other causes of action, some of the Montecito Mudslides lawsuits also allege personal injury and wrongful death. The Thomas and Koenigstein Fires lawsuits and the Montecito Mudslides lawsuits have been coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court.
For further information, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies—Contingencies—Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides."

Woolsey Fire Litigation
In November 2018, wind-driven wildfires impacted portions of SCE's service territory and caused substantial damage to both residential and business properties and service outages for SCE customers. The largest of these fires, known as the Woolsey Fire, originated in Ventura County and burned acreage located in both Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. According to CAL FIRE information, the Woolsey Fire burned almost 100,000 acres, destroyed an estimated 1,643 structures, damaged an estimated 364 structures and resulted in three fatalities.
As of April 26, 2019, SCE was aware of at least 72 lawsuits, representing approximately 1,100 plaintiffs, related to the Woolsey Fire naming SCE as a defendant. Fifty-eight of these lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. At least two of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, personal injury, wrongful death, trespass, private nuisance, and violations of the public utilities and health and safety codes. The Woolsey Fire lawsuits have been coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court.

(d)      The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.4(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided , however , that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(e)      The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing the Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (a “ Note ”).

2.9.      Computation of Interest and Fees . (a)  Interest calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365‑ (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed; and, otherwise, interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360‑day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate.
(b)      Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower upon request a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.8(a) or (b).
2.10.      Inability to Determine Interest Rate . (a) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:
(i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower, absent manifest error) that the Eurodollar Rate cannot be determined by any of the means set forth in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or by reason of circumstances affecting the eurodollar market, quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits are not being provided to Citibank in the relevant amount or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period (including because the Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), or
(ii)    the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders, absent manifest error) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,
the Administrative Agent shall give facsimile or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any ABR Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the first day of such Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Each such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent upon any change in such determination of the adequacies and fairness of the Eurodollar Rate, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly withdraw its notice to the Borrower following receipt of such notices from the Required Lenders. Until such withdrawal by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans.
(b)    If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but either (w) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of the Screen Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Screen Rate), (x) the administrator of

17    
        



the Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Screen Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurodollar Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.1, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date a copy of such amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.10(b), only to the extent the Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any interest election request that requests the conversion of any borrowing to, or continuation of any borrowing as, a Eurodollar borrowing shall be ineffective, and (y) if any borrowing request requests a Eurodollar borrowing, such borrowing shall be made as an ABR borrowing; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.
2.11.      Pro Rata Treatment and Payments . (a)  Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, and, except as provided in Section 2.21, each payment by the Borrower of any fees hereunder, except as provided in Section 2.21, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans, and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the Percentages of the Lenders, in each case except to the extent another provision of this Agreement specifies a different treatment. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without set off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Section 9.2, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.
(b)      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the

18    
        



Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Closing Date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s pro rata share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to repayment of such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum otherwise applicable to such Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower and, upon such payment, no further interest shall be payable with respect to such amount. The payment of interest by a Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any right the Borrower may have against such Lender for such Lender’s failure to make Loans to the Borrower as required hereunder.
2.12.      Illegality . Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (a) such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (c) such Lender’s outstanding Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law.
2.13.      Additional Costs . (a)  If, as a result of any Regulatory Change:
(i)      any Lender shall be subject to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to amounts payable to it under this Agreement, or the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof is changed (except, in each case, for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.14, taxes described in clauses (x) through (z) of Section 2.14(a), net income taxes, franchise taxes, and branch profits taxes, and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender); or
(ii)      any reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy, liquidity, compulsory loan or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, any Lender, which requirements are generally applicable to extensions of credit or other assets of, or deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender, are imposed, modified, or deemed applicable; or
(iii)      any other condition, cost or expense (other than taxes) affecting this Agreement or any Loans is imposed on any Lender after the date hereof, which condition, cost or expense (other than taxes) is generally applicable to loans made by such Lender; and

19    
        



any Lender determines that, by reason thereof, the cost to such Lender (or a holding company of any Lender) of making, continuing, converting or maintaining its Commitment or any of its Loans to the Borrower is increased or any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any of such Loans is reduced or the rate of return on such Lender’s (or holding company’s) capital is reduced (taking into consideration such Lender’s or holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), in each case by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “ Additional Costs ”), then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender upon its request the additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such Additional Costs within 15 Business Days after written notice of such Additional Costs is received by the Borrower; provided , however , that if all or any such Additional Costs would not have been payable or incurred but for such Lender’s voluntary decision to designate a new Lending Office, the Borrower shall have no obligation under this Section 2.13 to compensate such Lender for such amount relating to such Lender’s decision; provided , further , that the Borrower shall not be required to make any payments to such Lender for Additional Costs incurred more than 60 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor.
(b)      Without limiting the effect of the provisions of Section 2.13(a) (but without duplication thereof), the Borrower will pay to any Lender, within 15 Business Days of receipt by the Borrower of notice from such Lender, for each day such Lender is required to maintain reserves against “Eurocurrency liabilities” under Regulation D of the Board as in effect on the date of this Agreement, an additional amount determined by such Lender equal to the product of the following:
(i)      the principal amount of the Eurodollar Loan;
(ii)      the remainder of (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan and the denominator of which is one minus the rate at which such reserve requirements are imposed on such Lender on such day minus (y) such numerator; and
(iii)      1/360.
Such Lender shall request payment under this Section 2.13(b) by giving notice to the Borrower as of the last day of each Interest Period for each Eurodollar Loan (and, if such Interest Period exceeds three months’ duration, also as of three months, or a whole multiple thereof, after the first day of such Interest Period). Such notice shall specify the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Such Lender shall provide any evidence of such requirement to maintain reserves as the Borrower may reasonably request.
(c)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation

20    
        



thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a Regulatory Change, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.
(d)      Each Lender will notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any Regulatory Change occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to Section 2.13(a) or (c) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. If such Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13(a) or (c), the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender require that such Lender forward to the Borrower a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.
Determinations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 2.13 of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made absent manifest error.
2.14.      Taxes . (a)  All payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) and branch profits taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender in a jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which the Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized, in which its applicable Lending Office is located, or as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees deductions or withholdings (“ Non-Excluded Taxes ”) or any Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent, (i) such amounts shall be paid to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (ii) the amounts so payable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts they would have received had no such obligation been imposed; provided , however , that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes that are (x) United States withholding taxes (including United States federal, state and local backup withholding taxes) resulting from any Requirement of Law in effect on the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (other than pursuant to an assignment request by the Borrower under Section 2.17), (y) attributable to (i) such Lender’s designation of a different Lending Office ( provided that such Non-Excluded Taxes are imposed at the time of the first payment to such Lender under this Agreement following such designation and excluding any designation occurring pursuant to Section 2.16) or (ii) such Lender’s failure to comply with the

21    
        



requirements of paragraph (e) of this Section 2.14 or (z) United States federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA.
(b)      In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c)      Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as the case may be, certificates or other valid vouchers or receipts received by the Borrower or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender showing payment thereof. Subject to Section 2.14(a), if (i) the Borrower fails to pay any such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority, (ii) fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence or (iii) any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are imposed directly upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for such amounts and any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure in the case of (i) and (ii), or any such direct imposition in the case of (iii).
(d)      Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)      Each Lender that is a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax. Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “ Non‑U.S. Lender ”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (i) two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (certifying as to entitlement to treaty benefits), Form W-8ECI (claiming exemption from withholding because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business) or Form W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying Internal Revenue Service forms), as applicable, (ii) in the case of a Non‑U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit B and the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto properly completed and duly executed by such Non‑U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on payments under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or (iii) any other form prescribed by applicable requirements of U.S. federal income tax law as a basis for claiming

22    
        



exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable requirements of law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Such forms, certificates, and statements shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms, certificates, and statements promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender, or upon the reasonable request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form, certificate, or statement to the Borrower (or any other form, statement, or certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Each Lender agrees to (x) promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower if any fact set forth in any such form, certificate, or statement ceases to be true and correct and (y) take such steps and may be reasonably necessary to avoid any applicable Requirements of Law that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to the Lender under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph after the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, after the date such Participant purchases the related participation) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation described in Section 2.14(e)(iii) shall not be required if in a Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of the preceding sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 2.14(e), the term “Lender” includes the Administrative Agent.
(f)    If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund

23    
        



and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided , that the Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
2.15.      Indemnity . The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or in the conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans, after the Borrower has given a notice requesting or accepting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof (including following any revocation of such notice permitted hereunder) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if applicable, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to but excluding the last day of the relevant Interest Period (or proposed Interest Period) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market.
2.16.     Change of Lending Office . Each Lender agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Sections 2.13 or 2.14, or if any adoption or change of the type described in Section 2.12 shall occur with respect to it, it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as determined in its sole discretion) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such a designation would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrower to make payments under Sections 2.13 or 2.14, or would eliminate or reduce the effect of any adoption or change described in Section 2.12.
2.17.      Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances . The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender (a) that requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.14 (for itself or its Participant) or for which amounts are otherwise payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14, (b) that is affected in the manner described in Section 2.12 and as a result thereof any of the events described in clauses (b) or (c) of such Section occur, (c) that is a Defaulting Lender or a Downgraded Lender, or (d) that does not consent to an amendment or waiver that requires the consent of all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) and has been approved by the Required Lenders, in each case, with a replacement bank or other financial institution; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement (or, if an Event of Default exists, the Required Lenders consent to such replacement), (iii) the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans, and other

24    
        



amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.15 if any outstanding Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be or purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 (c) and (e) ( provided that the Borrower or the replacement bank or institution shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) or pursuant to other procedures reasonably agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which may include a deemed assignment), (vii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.14, as the case may be, and (viii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights which the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender.
2.18.      [Reserved] .
2.19.      [Reserved] .
2.20.      [Reserved] .
2.21.      Defaulting Lenders . Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)      the Commitments and Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.1 to the extent set forth therein), and such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.1;
(b)      any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.7), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: FIRST, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; SECOND, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; THIRD, if so determined by the Borrower with the consent of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; FOURTH, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; FIFTH, so long as no

25    
        



Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and SIXTH, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

8.3.      Exculpatory Provisions . Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys‑in‑fact or Affiliates shall be (i) liable to any Lender for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower.

The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any

37    
        



action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.
8.5.      Notice of Default .

In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys‑in‑fact or Affiliates.

38    
        



against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
8.8.      Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity . The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.
8.9.      Successor Administrative Agent . The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent at any time upon 30 days’ notice by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower.

If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or is removed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, subject to approval by the Borrower, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. In the event that no such successor Administrative Agent is so appointed by the Required Lenders within 30 days of the Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent (subject to the approval of the Borrower) as provided above. After any removed Administrative Agent’s removal or retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 and Section 9.5 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
8.10.      Arrangers . The Arrangers (and any of them individually) solely in their respective capacities as such shall not have any rights, duties or responsibilities hereunder, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Arrangers (or any of them individually) solely in their capacities as Arrangers.

42    
        



to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the use of proceeds of the Loans (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “ indemnified liabilities ”), provided , that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any indemnified person with respect to indemnified liabilities that are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified person, from the breach by such indemnified person of its Contractual Obligations to the Borrower or from negotiated settlements of pending or threatened legal actions entered into by such indemnified person without the Borrower’s consent.

9.6.     Transfer Provisions . (a)   Successors and Assigns . This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.
(b)     Participations . Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial lending business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“ Participants ”), other than to the Borrower and its Affiliates, participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan and interests for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if such Participant were a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.14, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section as if it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(e) shall, subject to applicable law, be delivered to the transferring Lender); and provided , further , that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of

43    
        



each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
(c)      Assignments . Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial lending business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time and from time to time, assign to any Lender or any Affiliate thereof or, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent shall not be required from the Borrower during the continuation of an Event of Default and shall be deemed given if the Borrower has not objected thereto within fifteen Business Days of notice thereof), to an additional bank or financial institution (an “ Assignee ”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, substantially in the form of Exhibit E (an “ Assignment and Assumption ”), executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender, and (to the extent required by this paragraph) the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register, provided that, in the case of any such assignment to an additional bank or financial institution, (i) the sum (without duplication) of the aggregate principal amount of the Commitments and Exposure being assigned shall not be less than $10,000,000 (or, if such Assignee is an Affiliate of a Lender, $5,000,000, or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) and (ii) (x) the sum (without duplication) of the aggregate principal amount of the Commitments and Exposure retained by the assigning Lender, if any, shall not be less than $10,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) or (y) after giving effect to such assignment, the assigning Lender shall hold no Loans or Commitments. For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender may at any time assign or transfer all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any natural person (or holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person), to any Defaulting Lender or to the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower.
Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto), but shall retain its rights pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 in respect of the period prior to such effective date. Any

44    
        



assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.6(c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.
(d)      The Register . The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 9.2 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “ Register ”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Note shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(e)      Recordation . Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower) together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower.
(f)      Disclosure . Subject to Section 9.14, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “ Transferee ”) and any prospective Transferee, any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.
(g)      Pledges . For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender in accordance with applicable law.
9.7.      Adjustments; Set-Off . (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or Lenders, if any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set‑off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 7(d) or (e), or

45    
        



otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided , however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall exercise any right of set-off against the Borrower in connection with this Agreement without the consent of the Required Lenders.
(b)      In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the declaration by Lenders having more than 66 2/3 % in aggregate amount of the Loans pursuant to Section 7 of the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower; provided that if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set‑off. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
9.8.      Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile transmission, facsimile or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
9.9.     Severability . Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Exhibit 10.3

EDISON INTERNATIONAL
2019 Long-Term Incentives
Terms and Conditions
1.
LONG-TERM INCENTIVES
The long-term incentive awards granted in 2019 (“ LTI ”) for eligible persons (each, a “ Holder ”) employed by Edison International (“ EIX ”) or its participating affiliates include the following:
Nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of EIX Common Stock (“ EIX Options ”) as described in Section   3;
Contingent EIX performance units (“ Performance Shares ”) as described in Section 4; and
Restricted EIX stock units (“ Restricted Stock Units ”) as described in Section 5.
Each of the LTI awards will be granted under the EIX 2007 Performance Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”) and will be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7.1 of the Plan.
The LTI shall be subject to these 2019 Long-Term Incentives Terms and Conditions (these “ Terms ”). The LTI shall be administered by the Compensation and Executive Personnel Committee of the EIX Board of Directors (the “ Committee ”). The Committee shall have the administrative powers with respect to the LTI set forth in Section 3.2 of the Plan.
In the event EIX grants LTI to a Holder, the number of EIX Options, Performance Shares and Restricted Stock Units granted to the Holder will be set forth in a written award certificate delivered by EIX to the Holder.
2.
VESTING OF LTI
Subject to Sections 8 and 9 the following vesting and payment rules shall apply to the LTI:
2.1
EIX Options . The EIX Options will vest over a four-year period as described in this Section 2 (the “ Vesting Period ”). The effective “ initial vesting date ” will be January 2, 2020, or six months after the date of the grant, whichever date is later. The EIX Options will vest as follows:
On the initial vesting date, one-fourth of the award will vest.
On January 4, 2021, an additional one-fourth of the award will vest.
On January 3, 2022, an additional one-fourth of the award will vest.
On January 3, 2023, the balance of the award will vest.
2.2
Performance Shares . The Performance Shares will vest and become payable to the extent earned as determined at the end of the three-calendar-year period commencing on January 1, 2019, and ending December 31, 2021 (the “ Performance Period ”), subject to the provisions of Section 4.
2.3
Restricted Stock Units . The Restricted Stock Units will vest and become payable on January 3, 2022.
2.4
Continuance of Employment/Service Required . The vesting schedule requires continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date as a condition for the vesting of the applicable installment of the LTI and the rights and benefits thereunder. Employment or service for only a portion of the vesting period, even if a substantial portion, will not entitle the Holder to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services except as provided in Sections 8 and 9 below.

1


3.
EIX OPTIONS
3.1
Exercise Price . The exercise price of an EIX Option stated in the award certificate is the closing price (in regular trading) of a share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the effective date of the grant.
3.2
Cumulative Exercisability; Term of Option . The vested portions of the EIX Options will accumulate to the extent not exercised, and be exercisable by the Holder subject to the provisions of this Section 3 and Sections 8 and 9, in whole or in part, in any subsequent period but not later than January 2, 2029.
3.3
Method of Exercise . The Holder may exercise an EIX Option by providing written notice to EIX on the form prescribed by the Committee for this purpose, or completion of such other EIX Option exercise procedures as EIX may prescribe, accompanied by full payment of the applicable exercise price. Payment must be in cash or its equivalent acceptable to EIX. At the discretion of the Holder, EIX Common Stock valued on the exercise date at a per-share price equal to the closing price of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange may be used to pay the exercise price, provided the Company can comply with any legal requirements. (“Companies” or “Company” means EIX and its affiliates, or any of them, as the context may require.) A broker-assisted “cashless” exercise may be accommodated for EIX Options at the discretion of EIX. Until payment is accepted, the Holder will have no rights in the optioned stock. The provisions of Section 10 must be satisfied as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any purported exercise.
3.4
Automatic Exercise . Except as may otherwise be determined by the Committee in advance of the applicable exercise date and subject to the conditions below, the Holder’s then-outstanding vested EIX Options shall automatically be exercised by EIX on behalf of the Holder on the last day of the term of such options (including any shortened term as a result of a termination of employment or in connection with a Change in Control of EIX as provided in Sections 8 and 9), to the extent such options are not otherwise exercised on or before that date. In connection with any automatic exercise of outstanding vested EIX Options, EIX shall satisfy the exercise price of the EIX Options and the applicable withholding obligation by withholding that number of EIX shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to the options having a value (based on the closing price of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the exercise date, or if no sales of EIX Common Stock were reported on the New York Stock Exchange on that date, the closing price of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the next preceding day on which sales of EIX Common Stock were reported) equal to the exercise price of the EIX Options and the applicable withholding obligation. Outstanding vested EIX Options shall only be automatically exercised by EIX on behalf of the Holder if (i) the EIX Options have an exercise price that is lower than the price of a share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange at the time of exercise so that the options are “in-the-money,” and (ii) the exercise by EIX complies with all legal requirements applicable to EIX.
4.
PERFORMANCE SHARES
4.1
Performance Shares . Performance Shares are EIX Common Stock-based units subject to a performance vesting requirement. A target number of contingent Performance Shares will be awarded on the initial grant date. Fifty percent (50%) of the grant date value (based on EIX’s valuation methodology for the award) of the contingent Performance Shares will be a target number of contingent Performance Shares subject to a performance measure based on the percentile ranking of EIX total shareholder return (“ TSR ”) among the TSRs for the stocks comprising the Comparison Group (as defined below) over the entire Performance Period (these contingent Performance Shares are referred to as the “ TSR Performance Shares ”). The other fifty percent (50%) of the grant date value (based on EIX’s valuation methodology for the award) of the contingent Performance Shares will be a target number of contingent Performance Shares subject to a performance measure based on EIX’s average core earnings per share (“ EPS ”) over the entire Performance Period (these contingent Performance Shares are referred to as the “ EPS Performance Shares ”). The TSR Performance Shares and EPS Performance Shares will be increased by any additional Performance Shares created by “reinvestment” of dividend equivalents as provided in Section 4.5.
4.2
TSR Performance Shares . The actual amount of TSR Performance Shares to be paid will depend on EIX’s TSR percentile ranking on the Performance Measurement Date (as defined herein). If EIX’s TSR is below the 25 th percentile, no TSR Performance Shares will be paid. Twenty-five percent (25%) of the target number

2


of TSR Performance Shares will be paid if EIX’s TSR percentile ranking is at the 25 th percentile. The target number of TSR Performance Shares will be paid if EIX’s TSR rank is at the 50 th percentile. Two times the target number of TSR Performance Shares will be paid if EIX’s TSR percentile ranking is at the 75th percentile or higher. The payment multiple is interpolated for performance between the points indicated in the preceding three sentences on a straight-line basis with discrete intervals at every 5 th percentile.
TSR is calculated using (i) the average of the closing stock prices for the relevant stocks for the 20-trading-day period ending with the last day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading preceding the first day of the Performance Period, and (ii) the average of the closing stock prices for the relevant stocks for the 20-trading-day period ending with the Performance Measurement Date. In making such determination, stock prices will be equitably and proportionately adjusted to the extent (if any) necessary to preserve the intended incentives of the awards and mitigate the impact of any stock split, stock dividend or reverse stock split occurring during the applicable period. The “ Comparison Group ” consists of the stocks comprising the Philadelphia Utility Index as the index is constituted on the Performance Measurement Date. If the Comparison Group consists of fewer than 20 stocks on the Performance Measurement Date, the stock with the median TSR for the entire Performance Period (or, if there are an even number of stocks in the Comparison Group before giving effect to this sentence, a stock deemed to have a TSR equal to the average TSR of the two stocks in the Comparison Group that fall in the middle of such group when ranked based on TSR for the entire Performance Period) shall be added back to the Comparison Group a sufficient number of times to bring the stocks comprising the Comparison Group to 20. (For purposes of clarity, if there are only 17 stocks in the Comparison Group before giving effect to the preceding sentence, the stock with the median TSR for the entire Performance Period will be added back to the Comparison Group a total of three times to bring the stocks comprising the Comparison Group to 20.) Dividends with ex-dividend dates falling inside the Performance Period will be included in the TSR calculations using the assumption that reinvestment occurs on the ex-dividend date.
The Performance Measurement Date for the TSR Performance Shares will be the last day of the Performance Period on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. As of that date, the applicable payment multiple will be determined as provided above in this Section 4.2 based on the EIX TSR percentile ranking achieved during the Performance Period.
4.3
EPS Performance Shares . The Committee shall establish an EIX EPS target for each of calendar 2019, 2020, and 2021, which are the three calendar years comprising the Performance Period. The Committee shall establish the EIX EPS target for each calendar year no later than during the first 90 days of the applicable calendar year.
The actual amount of EPS Performance Shares to be paid will depend on EIX’s actual EPS performance achieved as a percentage of the EIX EPS target established for the calendar year. If EIX’s actual EPS for any calendar year is less than eighty percent (80%) of the EIX EPS target amount for the year, the EPS performance multiple for the calendar year will be zero (0). If EIX’s actual EPS for any calendar year is equal to eighty percent (80%) of the EIX EPS target amount for the year, the EPS performance multiple for the calendar year will be 0.25x. If EIX’s actual EPS for any calendar year is equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the EIX EPS target amount for the year, the EPS performance multiple for the calendar year will be 1.0x. If EIX’s actual EPS for any calendar year is equal to or greater than one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the EIX EPS target amount for the year, the EPS performance multiple for the calendar year will be 2.0x. Each year’s EPS performance multiple is interpolated for performance between the points indicated in the preceding three sentences on a straight-line basis with discrete intervals at every 4 th percentage point, however, the performance multiple will be equal to the lowest multiple within each interval.
Following the end of the Performance Period, the EPS performance multiples achieved for each of calendar 2019, 2020, and 2021 will be averaged (determined by including zero (0) for any year in which the EPS achieved was less than eighty percent (80%) of the applicable target for that year), and the resulting average EPS performance multiple achieved for the Performance Period is referred to as the “ Performance Period EPS Multiple .” The actual amount of EPS Performance Shares to be paid will be determined by multiplying the Performance Period EPS Multiple times the target number of EPS Performance Shares.

3


EPS is defined as “Core” earnings per share, a non-GAAP financial measure derived from basic GAAP earnings per share by excluding income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that are not representative of ongoing earnings. The Committee shall make Adjustments (as defined below) to the EPS target levels established and/or the level of EPS otherwise obtained for purposes of the EPS Performance Shares to the extent (if any) it determines that such Adjustment is necessary to preserve the incentives and benefits intended at the time the Committee established the applicable EPS target level for the applicable calendar year.  “Adjustments” means: (1) excluding the impact of a change in tax rates and other aspects of comprehensive changes to tax laws or regulations; (2) excluding the dilutive effects of acquisitions or joint ventures; (3) assuming that any business divested by EIX or its subsidiaries achieved performance objectives at targeted levels during the balance of the performance period following such divestiture; (4) excluding the effect of any event or transaction referenced in Section 7.1 of the Plan; (5) excluding costs incurred in connection with potential acquisitions or divestitures that are required to be expensed under GAAP; (6) excluding the effect of current-year costs recovered through litigation, arbitration, or mediation; (7) excluding the effects of changes to GAAP and changes in our accounting practices with respect to non-GAAP items; (8) mitigation of the unbudgeted impact of unusual or nonrecurring gains or losses, or other extraordinary events not foreseen at the time the Committee established the applicable EPS target level; and (9) any other Adjustments set forth in the applicable Committee resolutions establishing the applicable EPS target level for the applicable calendar year. “GAAP” means generally accepted accounting principles.
4.4
Payment of Performance Shares . The total number of Performance Shares that are earned pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 will be determined by the Committee. Whole Performance Shares that are earned pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3, and taking dividend equivalents into account pursuant to Section 4.5, will be paid on a one-for-one basis in EIX Common Stock under the Plan. Any fractional Performance Shares earned will be paid in cash based on the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the date of the Committee’s determination of the number of Performance Shares that are earned pursuant to Section 4.2 and 4.3. The stock and cash payable for the earned Performance Shares will be delivered as soon as practicable for EIX following such determination by the Committee, and in all events no later than March 15, 2022. The Performance Shares are subject to termination and other conditions specified in Sections 8 and 9, and to the provisions of Section 10.
4.5
Dividend Equivalent Reinvestment . For each dividend on EIX Common Stock for which the ex-dividend date falls within the Performance Period and after the date of grant of the Performance Shares, the Holder of the Performance Shares will be credited with an additional number of target Performance Shares. The additional number of shares added on each ex-dividend date will be equal to (i) the per-share cash dividend paid by EIX on its Common Stock with respect to the related ex-dividend date, multiplied by (ii) the Holder’s number of target Performance Shares (including any additional target Performance Shares previously credited under this Section 4.5), divided by (iii) the closing price of a share of EIX Common Stock on the related ex-dividend date, with the result rounded to six decimal places. Any target Performance Shares added pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 will be subject to the same vesting, payment, termination and other terms, conditions and restrictions as the original target Performance Shares to which they relate (including, as applicable, application of the TSR payment multiple as contemplated by Section 4.2 or the EPS performance payment multiple as contemplated by Section 4.3). No target Performance Shares will be added pursuant to this Section 4.5 with respect to any target Performance Shares which, as of the related ex-dividend date, have either become payable pursuant to Section 4.4 or terminated pursuant to Section 8.
5.
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
5.1
Restricted Stock Units . Restricted Stock Units are EIX Common Stock-based units that vest based on the passage of time. As soon as practicable for EIX following January 3, 2022 (and in all events within 90 days after such date), EIX will pay Restricted Stock Units that have vested, except that if the Restricted Stock Units vest pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 or 9, the Restricted Stock Units will become payable as provided in the applicable section below and as follows. Whole Restricted Stock Units that have vested will be paid on a one-for-one basis in EIX Common Stock under the Plan. Any fractional Restricted Stock Unit will be paid in cash based on the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on January 3, 2022 or, as to any fractional Restricted Stock Units that have vested pursuant to Section 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 or 9 (including any

4


payment made pursuant to Section 14.7, but excluding any payment where the time for payment is determined by reference to Section 8.2(C)), the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the business day immediately preceding the day of payment. The Restricted Stock Units are subject to termination and other conditions specified in Sections 8 and 9, and to the provisions of Section 10.
5.2
Dividend Equivalent Reinvestment . For each dividend declared on EIX Common Stock with an ex-dividend date on or after the date an award of Restricted Stock Units is granted and before all of such Restricted Stock Units either have been paid (or converted into a cash amount, as the case may be) pursuant to Section 5.1 (including any payment made pursuant to Section 14.7) or have terminated pursuant to Section 8 or 9, the Holder of such award will be credited with an additional number of Restricted Stock Units equal to (i) the per-share cash dividend paid by EIX on its Common Stock with respect to the related ex-dividend date, multiplied by (ii) the total number of outstanding and unpaid Restricted Stock Units (including any Restricted Stock Units previously credited under this Section 5.2) subject to such award as of such ex-dividend date, divided by (iii) the closing price of a share of EIX Common Stock on the related ex-dividend date, with the result rounded to six decimal places. Any additional Restricted Stock Units credited pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 will be subject to the same vesting, payment, termination and other terms, conditions and restrictions as the original Restricted Stock Units to which they relate; provided, however, that the Committee shall retain discretion to pay any Restricted Stock Units in cash rather than shares of EIX Common Stock if and to the extent that payment in shares would exceed the applicable share limits of the Plan. No crediting of Restricted Stock Units will be made pursuant to this Section 5.2 with respect to any Restricted Stock Units which, as of the related ex-dividend date, have either been paid pursuant to Section 5.1 or terminated pursuant to Section 8 or 9.
6.
DELAYED PAYMENT OR DELIVERY OF LTI GAINS
Holders are not eligible to defer any of their LTI granted in 2019, including the payment thereof, into the EIX 2008 Executive Deferred Compensation Plan or any other deferred compensation plan.
7.
TRANSFER AND BENEFICIARY
7.1
Limitations on Transfers . Except as provided below and in Section 10, the LTI will not be transferable by the Holder and, during the lifetime of the Holder, the LTI will be exercisable only by him or her. The Holder may designate a beneficiary who, upon the death of the Holder, will be entitled to exercise the then vested portion of the LTI during the remaining term subject to the provisions of the Plan and these Terms.
7.2
Exceptions . Notwithstanding the foregoing, the LTI of the most senior officer of EIX, the most senior officer of Southern California Edison Company (“SCE”), the General Counsel of EIX, and the Chief Financial Officer of EIX, are transferable to a spouse, children or grandchildren, or trusts or other vehicles established exclusively for their benefit. Any transfer request must specifically be authorized by EIX in writing and shall be subject to any conditions, restrictions or requirements as the Committee may determine. Restricted Stock Units may not, however, be transferred to the extent the transfer would violate (and result in any tax, penalty or interest under) Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”).
8.
TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
8.1
General . In the event of termination of the employment of the Holder for any reason other than those specified in Sections 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 or 9, the LTI will terminate as follows: (i) the Holder’s unvested EIX Options will terminate for no value as of the Holder’s Termination Date (as defined below), (ii) the Holder’s vested EIX Options will terminate for no value 180 days from the Holder’s Last Day Worked (as defined below) (or, if earlier, on the last day of the applicable EIX Option term) to the extent not theretofore exercised, (iii) the Holder’s unearned Performance Shares will terminate for no value as of the Holder’s Termination Date, and (iv) the Holder’s unvested Restricted Stock Units will terminate for no value as of the Holder’s Termination Date. Any fractional vested EIX Options will be rounded up to the next whole share. The vested and unvested portions of any LTI will be determined as of the Holder’s Last Day Worked after giving effect to any vesting required on such date. For purposes of the LTI, “ Last Day Worked ” means the last day the Holder is treated as employed on a Company payroll system, subject to the provisions of Section 8.5, and “ Termination Date ” means the day after the Last Day Worked. The provisions of this paragraph, as

5


well as the other references to Last Day Worked and Termination Date in Sections 8 and 9, shall apply similarly to any previously-granted and currently outstanding LTI and such provisions shall control as to any inconsistency with the Terms and Conditions applicable to such previously-granted LTI regarding such subject matter.
8.2
Retirement . If the Holder’s Last Day Worked is on or after the first day of the month in which he or she (i) attains age 65 or (ii) attains age 61 with five “years of service,” as that term is defined in the Edison 401(k) Savings Plan (a “ Retirement ”), then the vesting and exercise or payment provisions of this Section 8.2 will apply.
(A)
EIX Options . The EIX Options will remain outstanding and eligible to vest; provided, however, that in the event the Holder’s Retirement occurs within calendar 2019, the portion of the option that remains outstanding and eligible to vest following the Holder’s Retirement will be prorated by multiplying the total number of shares subject to the option by a fraction (not greater than 1), the numerator of which shall be the number of whole months in calendar 2019 that the Holder was employed by one or more of the Companies, and the denominator of which shall be twelve (12). In no event shall the Holder be credited with services performed during any portion of a calendar month (even if a substantial portion) if the Holder is not employed by one or more of the Companies as of the last day of such calendar month. The portion of the option not eligible to vest following the Holder’s Retirement after giving effect to the proration described in the preceding two sentences shall terminate as of the Holder’s Retirement, and the Holder shall have no further rights with respect to such terminated portion. Any fractional EIX Options eligible to vest under this Section 8.2 will be rounded up to the next whole number. EIX Options that remain outstanding and eligible to vest following Retirement will vest and become exercisable on the schedule under which they would have been vested had the Holder not retired (one-fourth of the option grant on the effective initial vesting date (January 2, 2020 or six months after the date of grant, whichever is later) and an additional one-fourth on each of January 4, 2021, January 3, 2022 and January 3, 2023), except that if the Holder dies, the then-outstanding portion of the option will immediately vest and become exercisable as of the date of the Holder’s death. In the event prorated vesting is required in connection with the Holder’s Retirement, the portion of the option that remains outstanding and eligible to vest will vest and become exercisable first on the effective initial vesting date (up to the maximum number of shares that would have vested and become exercisable on that date had no termination of employment occurred) and so on until the portion of the option that remains outstanding and eligible to vest becomes vested and exercisable, except that if the Holder dies, the then-outstanding portion of the option will immediately vest and become exercisable as of the date of the Holder’s death. Once exercisable, EIX Options will remain exercisable as provided in Section 3 for the remainder of the original EIX Option term.
(B)
Performance Shares . The Performance Shares will vest and become payable at the end of the Performance Period to the extent they would have vested and become payable if the Holder’s employment had continued through the last day of the Performance Period; provided, however, that if the Holder’s Retirement occurs within calendar 2019, the number of each of the TSR Performance Shares and EPS Performance Shares that remain outstanding and eligible to vest following the Holder’s Retirement will be prorated by multiplying the number of TSR Performance Shares or EPS Performance Shares, respectively, subject to the award by a fraction (not greater than 1), the numerator of which shall be the number of whole months in calendar 2019 that the Holder was employed by one or more of the Companies, and the denominator of which shall be twelve (12). For this purpose, the number of “whole months” shall be calculated as provided in Section 8.2(A) above. Performance Shares will be payable to the Holder on the payment date specified in Section 4.4 to the extent, as applicable, of the EIX TSR ranking achieved as specified in Section 4.2 or the Performance Period EPS Multiple achieved as specified in Section 4.3. Any unvested Performance Shares (after application of the foregoing vesting provisions) will terminate for no value.
(C)
Restricted Stock Units . The Restricted Stock Units will remain outstanding and eligible to vest following the Holder’s Retirement and will vest and be payable on or as soon as practicable for EIX following January 3, 2022 (and in all events within 90 days after such date); provided, however, that in the event the Holder’s Retirement occurs within calendar 2019, the number of Restricted Stock Units that remain outstanding and eligible to vest following the Holder’s Retirement will be prorated by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units subject to the award by a fraction (not greater than 1), the

6


numerator of which shall be the number of whole months in calendar 2019 that the Holder was employed by one or more of the Companies, and the denominator of which shall be twelve (12). For this purpose, the number of “whole months” shall be calculated as provided in Section 8.2(A) above. Any Restricted Stock Units not eligible to vest following the Holder’s Retirement (after application of the foregoing vesting provisions) will terminate for no value. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if the Holder dies after Retirement and prior to the date the then outstanding Restricted Stock Units are paid, the then outstanding Restricted Stock Units will vest and be paid as soon as practicable for EIX (and in all events within 90 days) following the date of the Holder’s death.
8.3
Death or Disability . If, prior to the Holder’s termination of employment with a Company, the Holder dies or incurs a “disability” (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Code), the provisions of this Section 8.3 will apply.
(A)
EIX Options . Any unvested EIX Options will immediately vest. The EIX Options will be exercisable immediately as of the date of such termination and will remain exercisable as provided in Section 3 for the remainder of the original EIX Option term.
(B)
Performance Shares . The Performance Shares will vest and become payable at the end of the Performance Period as provided in Section 4.4 to the extent they would have vested and become payable if the Holder’s employment had continued through the last day of the Performance Period.
(C)
Restricted Stock Units . Any unvested Restricted Stock Units will immediately vest and become payable as soon as practicable for EIX (and in all events within 90 days) after the date of the Holder’s death or disability, as applicable.
8.4
Involuntary Termination Not for Cause . Except as may otherwise be provided in Section 9, upon involuntary termination of the Holder’s employment by his or her employer not for cause (and other than due to the Holder’s death or disability), the provisions of this Section 8.4 shall apply.
(A)
EIX Options . Unvested EIX Options will vest to the extent necessary to cause the aggregate number of shares subject to vested EIX Options (including any shares acquired pursuant to previously exercised EIX Options) to equal the number of shares granted multiplied by a fraction (not greater than 1), the numerator of which is the number of whole months in the period from January 1 of the year of grant of the award through the one-year anniversary of the Holder’s Last Day Worked, and the denominator of which is forty-eight (48). For purposes of determining such fraction, no fractional month shall be taken into account. The Holder will have one year following the Last Day Worked in which to exercise the EIX Options, or until the end of the EIX Option term, whichever occurs earlier. The Holder’s vested options will terminate for no value at the end of such period to the extent not theretofore exercised. The portion of the option not eligible to vest following the termination of the Holder’s employment after giving effect to the proration described in this Section 8.4(A) shall terminate as of the Holder’s Termination Date, and the Holder shall have no further rights with respect to such terminated portion. Any fractional EIX Options vested under this Section 8.4(A) will be rounded up to the next whole number.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, if the Holder qualifies for Retirement (as defined in Section 8.2) at the time of the termination of the Holder’s employment, or if the Holder would have satisfied the requirements for Retirement if an extra year of service and age were applied, EIX Options will (i) vest (without any proration) and become exercisable on the schedule specified in Section 8.2 and (ii) remain exercisable for the remainder of the original EIX Option term.

(B)
Performance Shares . The Performance Shares will vest and become payable at the end of the Performance Period to the extent they would have vested and become payable if the Holder’s employment had continued through the last day of the Performance Period; provided, however, that the number of each of the TSR Performance Shares and EPS Performance Shares that remain outstanding and eligible to vest following termination of the Holder’s employment will be prorated by multiplying the number of TSR Performance Shares or EPS Performance Shares, respectively, subject to the award by a fraction (not greater than 1), the numerator of which shall be the number of whole months the Holder

7


was employed by one or more of the Companies from January 1, 2019 through the one-year anniversary of the Holder’s Last Day Worked, and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36). For purposes of determining such fraction, no fractional month shall be taken into account. Such vested Performance Shares will be payable to the Holder as provided in Section 4.4 to the extent, as applicable, of the EIX TSR ranking achieved as provided in Section 4.2 or the Performance Period EPS Multiple achieved as specified in Section 4.3. Any unvested Performance Shares (after application of the foregoing vesting provisions) will terminate for no value as of the Holder’s Termination Date, and the Holder shall have no further rights with respect to such terminated portion.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, if the Holder qualifies for Retirement (as defined in Section 8.2) at the time of the termination of the Holder’s employment, or if the Holder would have satisfied the requirements for Retirement if an extra year of service and age were applied, the Performance Shares will vest (without proration) and become payable at the end of the Performance Period as provided in Section 4.4 to the extent they would have vested and become payable if the Holder’s employment had continued through the last day of the Performance Period.

(C)
Restricted Stock Units . The Restricted Stock Units will vest to the extent necessary to cause the aggregate number of vested Restricted Stock Units to equal the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to the award multiplied by a fraction (not greater than 1), the numerator of which is the number of whole months in the period from January 1 of the year of grant of the award through the one-year anniversary of the Holder’s Last Day Worked, and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36). For purposes of determining such fraction, no fractional month shall be taken into account. Any unvested Restricted Stock Units (after application of the foregoing vesting provisions) will terminate for no value as of the Holder’s Termination Date, and the Holder shall have no further rights with respect to such terminated portion. Subject to the last paragraph of this Section 8.4(C), vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid as soon as practicable for EIX (and in all events within 90 days) following the date of the Holder’s Separation from Service, if the Separation from Service occurs prior to any other applicable payment event otherwise provided for in these Terms. For purposes of the LTI, a “ Separation from Service ” means the Holder’s “separation from service” with the Company as that term is used for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, if the Holder qualifies for Retirement (as defined in Section 8.2) at the time of the termination of the Holder’s employment, the Restricted Stock Units will vest (without any proration) and become payable at the same time provided for in Section 8.2(C).
In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two paragraphs, if the Holder does not qualify for Retirement at the time of the termination of the Holder’s employment, but the Holder would have satisfied the requirements for Retirement if an extra year of service and age had been applied at the time of termination, then the Restricted Stock Units (i) will vest (without any proration) and (ii) will, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 8.4(C), become payable as soon as practicable for EIX (and in all events within 90 days) following the date of the Holder’s Separation from Service, if the Separation from Service occurs prior to any other applicable payment event otherwise provided for in these Terms.
If either the first or third paragraphs of this Section 8.4(C) apply and the period for payment of the Restricted Stock Units spans two calendar years, and if Section 8.4(D) applies and the period for delivery of the Holder’s release of claims and any applicable revocation period also spans those two calendar years, then the payment of the applicable Restricted Stock Units will be made (subject to the satisfaction of Section 8.4(D)) within the prescribed period of time but in the second of those two calendar years.
(D)
Conditions of Benefits . Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if at the time of the Holder’s involuntary termination the Holder is covered by a severance plan of EIX or any of its affiliates, the Holder shall be entitled to the accelerated vesting provided in this Section 8.4 only if the Holder satisfies the applicable conditions for receiving severance benefits under that plan (including, without limitation, any requirement to execute and deliver a release of claims) in connection with such involuntary termination. In the event that such conditions are not satisfied, the provisions of Section 8.1 above shall apply, and the Holder shall not be entitled to any accelerated vesting under this Section 8.4.

8


8.5
Effect of Change of Employer . For purposes of the LTI only, involuntary termination of employment will be deemed to occur on the date the Holder’s employing company is no longer a member of the EIX controlled group of corporations as defined in Section 1563(a) of the Code, regardless of whether the Holder’s employment continues with that entity or a successor entity outside of the EIX controlled group. A termination of employment will not be deemed to occur for purposes of the LTI if a Holder’s employment by one EIX Company terminates but immediately thereafter the Holder is employed by another EIX Company.
9.
CHANGE IN CONTROL; EARLY TERMINATION OF LTI
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, in the event of a Change in Control of EIX (as defined in Section 9.6), the provisions of this Section 9 will apply.
9.1
EIX Options . In the event the EIX Options are to terminate pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Plan in connection with a Change in Control of EIX, then upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the acceleration, immediately prior to) the Change in Control of EIX the then-outstanding and unvested EIX Options will become fully vested; provided, however, that this automatic acceleration provision will not apply with respect to any EIX Options to the extent the Committee has made a provision for the substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation of the EIX Options. In the event of such a termination where the Committee has not provided for a cash settlement of the EIX Options as described below, the Holder of each EIX Option that is to be so terminated will be given reasonable advance notice of the impending termination and a reasonable opportunity to exercise such EIX Option in accordance with its terms before such termination (except that in no event will more than 10 days’ notice of the accelerated vesting and impending termination be required). The Committee may provide, as to each EIX Option that is to be terminated in connection with a Change in Control of EIX, to settle the EIX Option by a cash payment to the Holder of such option based upon the distribution or consideration payable to the holders of the EIX Common Stock upon or in respect of such event, such cash payment to be made as soon as practicable for EIX after the Change in Control of EIX.
9.2
Performance Shares . In the event the Performance Shares are to terminate pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Plan in connection with a Change in Control of EIX, then the Performance Period for all outstanding Performance Shares will be shortened so that the Performance Period will be deemed to have ended on the last day prior to such Change in Control of EIX, and the Performance Shares that will vest and become payable will be determined in accordance with Section 4.2 (TSR Performance Shares) or 4.3 (EPS Performance Shares) based on such shortened Performance Period (and, with respect to the EPS Performance Shares, after giving effect to a proportionate adjustment by the Committee to the EIX EPS target established for the year in which the Change in Control of EIX occurs to pro-rate such target for the portion of such year elapsed through the last day prior to such Change in Control of EIX); provided, however, that this automatic acceleration provision will not apply with respect to any Performance Shares to the extent the Committee has made a provision for the substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation of the Performance Shares. Any Performance Shares that become subject to a shortened Performance Period pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall be paid, to the extent such Performance Shares become vested and payable after giving effect to the first sentence of this Section 9.2, to the Holder in cash as soon as practicable for EIX (and in all events within 74 days ) after the date of the Change in Control of EIX, and any such Performance Shares that do not become vested and payable shall terminate for no value as of the date of the Change in Control of EIX.
9.3
Restricted Stock Units . This Section 9.3 applies to the Restricted Stock Units notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.2 of the Plan. The Committee may not exercise any discretion to change the payment date(s) of the Restricted Stock Units except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 9.3 or as otherwise compliant with (so as to not result in any tax, penalty or interest under) Section 409A of the Code. The Restricted Stock Units may only be terminated in connection with a Change in Control of EIX to the extent the termination satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) (Plan Terminations and Liquidations). In the event the Restricted Stock Units are to terminate in connection with such an event, then upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the acceleration, immediately prior to) the Change in Control of EIX, the then-outstanding and unvested Restricted Stock Units will become fully vested. In the event the Restricted Stock Units are not to be so terminated in connection with such an event, the Committee shall make provision for the substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation of the Restricted Stock Units in a manner that is compliant with (and does not result in any tax, penalty or interest under) Section

9


409A of the Code and the Restricted Stock Units shall be paid at the first applicable time otherwise provided in these Terms.
9.4
Severance Plan Benefits . If a Holder is a participant in the EIX 2008 Executive Severance Plan (or any similar successor plan) and experiences a Qualifying Termination Event as defined in the EIX 2008 Executive Severance Plan (or a similar employment termination under a successor plan) associated with a Change in Control as defined in the EIX 2008 Executive Severance Plan (or any similar successor plan), then (i) the Holder’s outstanding EIX Options will immediately vest, (ii) the Holder will have two years following the Last Day Worked in which to exercise such EIX options if the Holder is a Senior Vice President or an officer of higher rank of EIX or SCE (three years if the Holder is the most senior officer of EIX, the most senior officer of SCE, the General Counsel of EIX, or the Chief Financial Officer of EIX), in each case subject to earlier termination at the end of the applicable option term or as provided in Section 9.1 above, (iii) any then outstanding Performance Shares shall be treated as provided for in Section 8.3(B) above, if the applicable performance period has not been shortened pursuant to Section 9.2 above, and (iv) any then outstanding Restricted Stock Units will immediately and fully vest, and will be paid as soon as practicable for EIX (and in all events within 90 days) following the date of the Holder’s Separation from Service, if vesting had not otherwise been triggered by Section 9.3 above.
9.5
Other Acceleration Rules . Any acceleration of LTI pursuant to this Section 9 will comply with applicable legal requirements and, if necessary to accomplish the purposes of the acceleration or if the circumstances require, may be deemed by the Committee to occur within a limited period of time not greater than 30 days prior to the Change in Control of EIX. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee may deem an acceleration to occur immediately prior to the applicable event and/or reinstate the original terms of a LTI if the event giving rise to acceleration does not occur.
9.6
Definition of Change in Control of EIX . A “ Change in Control of EIX ” shall be deemed to have occurred as of the first day, after the date of grant, that any one or more of the following conditions shall have been satisfied:
(A)
Any Person (other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of EIX) becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of EIX representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the combined voting power of EIX’s then outstanding securities. For purposes of this clause, “ Person ” shall mean any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, except that such term shall not include one or more underwriters acquiring newly-issued voting securities (or securities convertible into voting securities) directly from EIX with a view towards distribution; and the term “ Beneficial Owner ” shall mean as defined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.
(B)
On any day after the date of grant (the “ Reference Date ”) Continuing Directors cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the EIX Board of Directors (the “ Board ”). A director is a “ Continuing Director ” if he or she either:
(i)
was a member of the Board on the applicable Initial Date (an “ Initial Director ”); or
(ii)
was elected to the Board, or was nominated for election by EIX’s shareholders, by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Initial Directors then in office.
A member of the Board who was not a director on the applicable Initial Date shall be deemed to be an Initial Director for purposes of clause (b) above if his or her election, or nomination for election by EIX’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Initial Directors (including directors elected after the applicable Initial Date who are deemed to be Initial Directors by application of this provision) then in office. For these purposes, “ Initial Date ” means the later of (A) the date of grant or (B) the date that is two (2) years before the Reference Date.
(C)
EIX is liquidated; all or substantially all of EIX’s assets are sold in one or a series of related transactions; or EIX is merged, consolidated, or reorganized with or involving any other corporation, other than a merger, consolidation, or reorganization that results in the voting securities of EIX outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted

10


into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of EIX (or such surviving entity) outstanding immediately after such merger, consolidation, or reorganization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a bankruptcy of EIX or a sale or spin-off of an affiliate of EIX (short of a dissolution of EIX or a liquidation of substantially all of EIX’s assets, determined on an aggregate basis) will not constitute a Change in Control of EIX.
(D)
The consummation of such other transaction that the Board may, in its discretion in the circumstances, declare to be a Change in Control of EIX for purposes of the Plan.
10.
TAXES AND OTHER WITHHOLDING
Upon any exercise, vesting, payment or other taxable event with respect to any LTI, the Company shall have the right at its option to:
require the Holder (or the Holder’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) to pay or provide for payment of the amount of any taxes which the Company may be required to withhold with respect to such LTI event or payment; or
deduct from any amount otherwise payable in cash to the Holder (or the Holder’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be), with respect to any LTI or otherwise, the amount of any taxes which the Company may be required to withhold.
In the case of any LTI payable in whole or part in EIX Common Stock, to the extent that the payment of that award pursuant to exercise or vesting requires tax withholding and a sufficient amount of cash is not generated from the underlying transaction as to that award to satisfy such withholding obligations, EIX shall substitute a cash award for a number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to the award, rounded up to the next whole share for fractional shares and valued in a consistent manner at their fair market value as of the date of such exercise (in the case of EIX Options), at their fair market value based on the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the date of the Committee’s certification in Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 above (in the case of Performance Shares), or (in the case of Restricted Stock Units) at a fair market value based on the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on January 4, 2021 (or, as to any Restricted Stock Units that have vested pursuant to Section 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 or 9 (including any payment made pursuant to Section 14.7, but excluding any payment where the time for payment is determined by reference to Section 8.2(C)), the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the business day immediately preceding the day of payment), as is necessary to satisfy the applicable withholding obligation in connection with such award transaction to the extent that such withholding amount exceeds the amount of cash generated from the underlying transaction and not otherwise deferred.
If for any reason EIX cannot or elects not to satisfy such withholding obligations in such manner, in each case, with the approval of the Committee as to a Section 16 Person (as defined below), or if a tax withholding obligation arises in any other circumstances, the Company shall have the right to satisfy such withholding obligations, or require the Holder to satisfy such withholding obligations, as otherwise provided above.
In the case of any LTI payable in whole or part in EIX Common Stock, to the extent that the payment of that award pursuant to exercise or vesting requires Garnishment Payments by the Company, and a sufficient amount of cash is not generated by the underlying transaction as to that award to satisfy the Garnishment Payment obligations arising from such transaction, the Company shall substitute a cash award for a number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to the award, rounded up to the next whole share for fractional shares and valued in a consistent manner at their fair market value as of the date of such exercise (in the case of EIX Options), at their fair market value based on the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the date of the Committee’s certification in Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 above (in the case of Performance Shares), or (in the case of Restricted Stock Units) at a fair market value based on the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for January 4, 2021 (or, as to any Restricted Stock Units that have vested pursuant to Section 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 or 9 (including any payment made pursuant to Section 14.7, but excluding any payment where the time for payment is determined by reference to Section 8.2(C)), the closing price per share of EIX Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the business day immediately preceding the day of payment), equal to the amount required by any Garnishment, less any cash received and not deferred in connection with such award transaction. For this purpose, “ Garnishment ” means garnishment orders, levies, and other assessments imposed by legal authority and “ Garnishment Payments ” means payments required by the Company pursuant to any such Garnishment.

11


11.
CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT
Nothing in the award certificate or these Terms will be deemed to confer on the Holder any right to continue in the employ of EIX, any of its subsidiaries, or any other entity or interfere in any way with the right of any of them to terminate his or her employment at any time.
12.
INSIDER TRADING; SECTION 16
12.1
Insider Trading . Each Holder shall comply with all EIX notice, trading and other policies regarding transactions in and involving EIX securities (including, without limitation, policies prohibiting insider trading).
12.2
Section 16 . If an LTI is granted to a person who is or later becomes subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act (“ Section 16 ”) in respect of EIX (a “ Section 16 Person ”), the LTI will immediately and automatically become subject to the requirements of Rule 16b-3(d) and/or 16b-3(e) ( the “ Rule ”) and may not be exercised, transferred or (to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code without triggering any tax, penalty or interest thereunder) paid until the Rule has been satisfied. Approval of these Terms is intended to satisfy the Rule. However, in its sole discretion, the Committee may take any other action to assure compliance with the requirements of the Rule, including (to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code without triggering any tax, penalty or interest thereunder) withholding delivery to Holder (or any other person) of any security or of any other payment in any form until the requirements of the Rule have been satisfied. The Secretary of EIX may waive compliance with the requirements of the Rule if he or she determines the transaction to be exempt from the provisions of paragraph (b) of Section 16.
12.3
Notice of Disposition . The Holder agrees that if he or she should plan to dispose of any shares of stock acquired on the exercise or payment of LTI awards (including a disposition by sale, exchange, gift or transfer of legal title) and the Holder is a person who is required to preclear EIX securities transactions, the Holder will notify EIX prior to such disposition.
13.
AMENDMENT
The LTI are subject to the terms of the Plan, as it may be amended from time to time. EIX reserves the right to amend these Terms from time to time to the extent that EIX reasonably determines that the amendment is necessary or advisable to comply with applicable laws, rules or regulations or to preserve the intended tax consequences of the applicable LTI. The LTI may not otherwise be amended or terminated (by amendment to or of the Plan or otherwise) in any manner materially adverse to the rights of the Holder of the affected LTI without such Holder’s consent.

Exhibit 10.4

EDISON INTERNATIONAL

EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

As Amended and Restated Effective February 27, 2019


WHEREAS, it has been determined that it is in the best interest of Edison International ("EIX") and its affiliates to offer and maintain competitive executive compensation programs designed to attract and retain qualified executives;

WHEREAS, it has been determined that providing financial incentives to executives that reinforce and recognize corporate, organizational and individual performance and accomplishments will enhance the financial and operational performance of EIX and its affiliates; and

WHEREAS, it has been determined that an incentive compensation program would encourage the attainment of short-term corporate goals and objectives;

NOW, THEREFORE, the Edison International Executive Incentive Compensation Plan has been established by the Compensation and Executive Personnel Committee of the Board of Directors originally effective January 1, 1997, and made available to eligible executives of EIX and its participating affiliates subject to the following terms and conditions:

1. Definitions. When capitalized herein, the following terms are defined as indicated:

"Board" means the Board of Directors of a Company (or a committee thereof acting within its delegated authority).

"CEO" means the chief executive officer of a Company.

"Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

"Company" means EIX or a participating affiliate.

"Committee" means the Compensation and Executive Personnel Committee of the EIX Board of Directors. Where the context requires with respect to officers and other participating employees of SCE, “Committee” shall also mean the Compensation and Executive Personnel Committee of the SCE Board.

“Covered Officer” means an individual who is a “Covered Officer” of EIX or SCE as defined in the EIX or SCE Committee Charter.

“EIX CEO” means the chief executive officer of EIX.

 
1
 



"Participant" means the CEO, president, executive vice presidents, senior vice presidents, elected vice presidents, and senior managers whose participation in this Plan has been approved by the Committee, the EIX CEO or the Board.

"Plan" means the Edison International Executive Incentive Compensation Plan.

“SCE” means Southern California Edison Company.

2. Eligibility . To be eligible for the full amount of any incentive award, an individual must have been employed by the Company as a Participant for the entire calendar year. Pro-rata awards may be distributed to Participants who during the calendar year retired, became disabled, or had their employment transferred between a Company and a non-participating affiliate of EIX. In the event of the death of a Participant during the calendar year, a pro-rata award may be made at the discretion of the Committee, the Board, or CEO having the authority to approve the Participant's award had the death not occurred. In the event an individual first becomes a Participant after the start of the calendar year, a pro-rata award may be made at the discretion of the Committee, the Board, or CEO having the authority to approve the Participant's award.

3. Company Performance Goals. The CEOs will develop recommended Company performance goals. In consultation with the EIX CEO, the Committee will select specific performance goals for the year. The performance goals should represent relatively optimistic, but reasonably attainable goals, the accomplishment of which is intended to contribute significantly to the attainment of Company strategic objectives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a Company does not employ a Covered Officer participating in the Plan, the Committee may delegate the selection of specific performance goals for that Company to the EIX CEO.

4. Individual Incentive Award Levels. Company, organizational and individual performance relative to the pre-established goals will determine the award a Participant can receive. The Committee, the CEO of a Company, or a designee, as permitted in accordance with the Committee Charter or other applicable controlling document, will establish target award levels for the year as a percentage of base salary at the time performance goals are set (and/or at such later time when the individual first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan or is eligible to receive a higher/lower target award level under the Plan because of a promotion/demotion or other approved reason). If a Participant is promoted after the Committee (or the EIX CEO, to the extent the selection of performance goals has been delegated to the EIX CEO) finalizes the performance goals for the year for purposes of Section 3 above (generally, the Committee meeting held in February each year) or otherwise becomes entitled to receive a higher/lower base salary and/or target award level under the Plan after such Committee action, that Participant’s incentive award for that year may be calculated based on the Participant's weighted average base salary and target award level, taking into account the base salary and target award level during the portion of the calendar year preceding the promotion and/or change in base salary and/or target award level, and

 
2
 



the base salary and target award level(s) during the remainder of the calendar year. All awards are discretionary.

5. Approval and Payment of Individual Awards. During the first quarter of the year following the completion of the calendar year, the EIX CEO, in consultation with the other CEOs, will assess the degree to which individual and corporate goals and objectives have been achieved. Incentive award recommendations for Participants will be developed. The Committee will receive a report from the EIX CEO as to Company performance, will deliberate on management recommendations, and will approve awards for Covered Officers. Awards to other Participants will be approved by the CEO of the respective Company, or a designee, as permitted in accordance with the Committee Charter or other applicable controlling document; provided, however, that if the selection of performance goals for a Company has been delegated to the EIX CEO, then the awards to officers of that Company who are not also officers of EIX or SCE will require the approval of the EIX CEO and the Board of the applicable Company. All decisions of the Committee, the EIX CEO, and the other CEOs regarding individual incentive awards will be final and conclusive.

Incentive award payments will be made as soon as practical following the appropriate approval (and in all events within two and one-half months after the end of the calendar year to which the award relates). Payment will be made in cash except to the extent an eligible Participant has previously elected to defer payment of some or all of the award pursuant to the terms of a deferred compensation plan of the Company. Awards made will be subject to any income or payroll tax withholding or other deductions as may be required by Federal, State or local law.

Awards under this Plan will not be considered to be salary or other compensation for the purpose of computing benefits to which the Participant may be entitled under any qualified Company retirement plan, including but not limited to the SCE Retirement Plan, the Edison 401(k) Savings Plan, or any other plan or arrangement of the Company for the benefit of its employees if such plan or arrangement is a plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and is a trust exempt from Federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code. Awards may be considered compensation for nonqualified plan purposes depending on the terms and conditions of the particular nonqualified plan.

6. No Right to Assets. An award payable to a Participant under this Plan shall constitute an unsecured general obligation of the Participant’s employer (EIX or its affiliate, as the case may be, or, in the case of a former employee, the affiliate that last employed the Participant) (the applicable entity, the "Employer"), and no special fund or trust will be created, nor will any notes or securities be issued with respect to any awards. Participants will be no more than unsecured general creditors of the Employer with no special or prior right to any assets of the Employer for payment of any obligations hereunder. No Participant (or beneficiary of a Participant) will have a claim to benefits from any other affiliate. EIX is not a guarantor of the benefit obligations of other participating affiliates. By participating in, and by accepting any benefits under, this Plan, Participants consent to EIX sponsorship of this Plan, but acknowledge that EIX is not a guarantor of the benefit obligations of other

 
3
 



participating affiliates. Each affiliate is responsible for payment of the accrued benefits under this Plan with respect to its own employees subject to the terms and

 
4
 



conditions set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the definition of “Employer” to the contrary, and at the sole discretion of EIX, EIX may determine that for purposes of benefits payable under this Plan, EIX shall be deemed to be the Employer obligated to pay such benefits. Such an election by EIX may be made, in EIX’s sole discretion, as to all Plan benefits, as to only certain benefits, and/or as to only certain affiliates or Participants, and will be deemed an assumption of the specified benefit obligations of the applicable affiliates. Subject to the further provisions hereof, EIX will be solely obligated to pay any such benefits and no Participant (or beneficiary) will have a claim as to any other affiliate with respect to such benefits. Upon an election by EIX under this Section 6, benefits covered by the election will be paid from the general funds of EIX (and not the affiliate that would otherwise pay the benefits), provided that EIX may require that as between EIX and the affiliate that would otherwise pay such benefits, the affiliate will be responsible to pay EIX for the assumption of such obligations in accordance with funding arrangements determined by EIX at the time of election or any time thereafter. To the extent such affiliate fails to comply with such funding arrangements or obtains any refund or offset of payments made from the affiliate to EIX without the consent of EIX, the affiliate that would otherwise be responsible for payment of benefits to the applicable Participant will remain responsible for such benefits. EIX will effectuate any such election pursuant to this Section 6 by providing written notice to the Committee and the applicable affiliates regarding the effective date of such election, and the benefits, affiliates and Participants for which the election is applicable. The funding arrangements established by EIX at the time of its election, or from time to time thereafter, will set forth the method by which the affiliates will remit funds to EIX in consideration of benefit obligations that are assumed by EIX.

7. Plan Modifications and Adjustments. In order to ensure the incentive features of the Plan, avoid distortion in its operation and compensate for or reflect extraordinary changes which may have occurred during the calendar year, the Committee may make adjustments to the Company performance goals or results or other Plan terms and conditions before, during or after the end of the calendar year to the extent it determines appropriate in its sole discretion. If, pursuant to Section 3 above, the Committee has delegated the selection of performance goals for a Company to the EIX CEO, then this Section 7 authorizes the EIX CEO to make adjustments to that Company’s performance goals or results at any time in his or her sole discretion. Adjustments to performance goals, performance results, and other Plan terms and conditions made pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 7 shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties concerned. The Plan may be modified or terminated by the Committee at any time.

8. Plan Administration. Except as otherwise provided in other Sections of this Plan, administration of the Plan is delegated to the senior officer of EIX responsible for Human Resources (and to the EIX director responsible for executive compensation (the “EIX EC Director”) if EIX does not have an officer responsible for Human Resources other than the EIX CEO) and designees acting under his/her (or the EIX EC Director’s) direction. Such officer is authorized (and the EIX EC Director is authorized) to approve ministerial amendments to the Plan, to interpret Plan provisions, and to approve changes as may be required by law or regulation. Any decision or determination under or with respect to the

 
5
 



Plan, as well as any interpretation of the Plan, by any Board, Committee or CEO, or by the senior officer of EIX responsible for Human Resources (or the EIX EC Director), in each case within its, his or her authority under or with respect to the Plan, shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties concerned. No Company, Board, Committee or individual shall be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration of the Plan.

9. Successors and Assigns. This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the Company and Participant.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any right to receive payment hereunder is hereby expressly declared to be personal, nonassignable and nontransferable, except by will, intestacy, or as otherwise required by law, and in the event of any attempted assignment, alienation or transfer of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof, the Company shall have no further liability for payments hereunder.

10. Beneficiaries. Any award approved following the death of a Participant will be made to the Participant's most recently designated beneficiary or beneficiaries under the 2007 Performance Incentive Plan (or any successor equity incentive plan) of the Company. If no beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, or if no beneficiary survives the Participant, or if a designated beneficiary should die after surviving the Participant but before the award has been paid, any award approved will be paid in a lump-sum payment to the Participant's estate as soon as practicable.

11. Capacity. If any person entitled to payments under this Plan is incapacitated and unable to use such payments in his or her own best interest, the Company may direct that payments (or any portion) be made to that person's legal guardian or conservator, or that person's spouse, as an alternative to the payment to the person unable to use the payments. Court-appointed guardianship or conservatorship may be required by the Company before payment is made. The Company shall have no obligation to supervise the use of such payments.

12. No Right of Employment. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon the Participant the right to continue in the employ of the Company as an officer or manager of the Company or in any other capacity.

13. Severability and Controlling Law. The various provisions of this Plan are severable in their entirety. Any determination of invalidity or unenforceability of any one provision will have no effect on the continuing force and effect of the remaining provisions. This Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.

14. Section 409A. This Plan shall be construed and interpreted to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

15. Claw-Back. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, this Plan, any award under this Plan, and any payment that may be made in respect of an award under

 
6
 



this Plan, shall be subject to any recoupment, “clawback” or similar provisions of applicable law, as well as the Company’s Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy, as in effect from time to time, and any other recoupment or similar policies of the Company that may be in effect from time to time.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, EIX has amended this Plan on the 27th day of February, 2019.
