pursuant to CPUC Decision 92-08-036 dated August 11, 1992.

2.2.

The Parties entered into the Second Amended San Onofre

things, (i) matters relating to the operation and maintenance of and capital

improvements to SONGS Unit 1, SONGS Units 2 and 3, and the SONGS

Common Facilities, and (ii) the rights, duties, and obligations of the Parties
with respect to Decommissioning of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station and
the

2.3

The Parties now desire to enter into this Decommissioning

Agreement, to provide for the rights, duties, and obligations of the Parties, as

tenants in common, with respect to Decommissioning Work and sharing of costs

thereof for SONGS Unit 1.

3.

AGREEMENT: In consideration of the terms and conditions contained in

this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

4.

DEFINITIONS: Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used herein with
initial capitalization, whether in the singular or the plural, shall have the
meanings as defined in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference.

5.

EFFECTIVE DATE: When executed by both Parties this Agreement shall

become effective as of the date set forth in Section 26 hereof.

6.

ADMINISTRATION:

6.1

As a means of securing effective cooperation and interchange of

information and of providing consultation on a prompt and orderly basis

between the Parties in connection with various administrative and technical
matters which may arise from time to time in connection with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the Parties hereby establish the following bodies
and representatives, which shall have the functions and responsibilities
described in Section 8 hereof.

6.1.1

A Decommissioning Executive Board consisting of a

management representative of each Party, and an alternate management

representative.

6.1.1.1

The chairman of the Decommissioning

Executive Board shall be a representative of the Decommissioning Agent. The

chairman shall be responsible for calling meetings and establishing agendas,

including meetings and agenda items, respectively, requested by any committee
representative.

6.1.1.2

Within thirty (30) days after the

execution of this Agreement, each Party shall designate its representative and
an alternate to the Decommissioning Executive Board by written notice to the
other Party. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any
change in its representative or alternate to the Decommissioning Executive
Board.

6.1.1.3

The Decommissioning Executive Board

shall have the right to establish ad hoc committees when necessary. The duties
and responsibilities of any such ad hoc committees shall be set forth in writing
and signed by the representatives of the Decommissioning Executive Board.

6.1.2

A Decommissioning Project Team consisting of

representatives from each Party.

6.1.2.1

Within thirty (30) days after the

execution of this agreement, the Parties shall designate their representatives
to the Decommissioning Project Team, including telephone numbers. The Parties
will inform each other of any changes in their Decommissioning Project Team
representatives within thirty (30) days.

6.1.2.2

A fiscal representative shall be appointed

to the Decommissioning Project Team by each Party to serve as a contact on all
matters concerning accounting, audits, billing, operation and maintenance
expense accounting, SONGS 1 Decommissioning administrative and general

("A&G") expense accounting, and other fiscal matters. The fiscal

representatives shall meet separately no less than once each year. The fiscal
representative shall review and approve procedures developed by the

Decommissioning Project Team pursuant to Section 8.2.8.

6.1.2.3

Exhibit B contains an acceptable interim

set of principles for the allocation methodology and shareable costs included in
SONGS 1 Decommissioning A&G expenses. The use of these interim
principles does not represent a commitment or understanding by SDG&E that
the principles necessarily reflect an amount of A&G expenses properly
attributable to Decommissioning Costs, which is equitable to the Parties. These
interim principles may be replaced with a mutually acceptable alternate that is
more equitable and, if so, SONGS 1 Decommissioning A&G expenses from
January 1, 1999 will be retroactively adjusted, if necessary. If these interim
principles are not finalized by December 31, 2000, this issue will be referred
to
the Decommissioning Executive Board for resolution pursuant to Section 8.1.3
and '8.1.4. The fiscal representatives will reevaluate the allocation
methodology
and sharable costs included in SONGS 1 Decommissioning A&G expenses as
outlined in Exhibit B every 3 years or based on changed circumstances that
cause the A&G process to no longer be equitable to the Parties. The fiscal
representatives evaluation shall include, but not be limited to, a review of:
(i) what expenses are equitable to the Parties and properly included as A&G
expenses attributable to Decommissioning Costs, including, but not limited to,
the accounting for such expenses in conformance with the Uniform System of
Accounts; and (ii) validating that total A&G expenses and the allocated share
thereof to be paid by each Party under this Agreement were actually incurred.
If the fiscal representatives fail to agree on proposed changes, then a report
to

the Decommissioning Executive Board for resolution should be provided

describing in detail an explanation of differing positions, the advantages and

disadvantages of each position, and any reasonable compromise of such different

positions. During the resolution process, the prior allocation methodology shall
remain in effect.

6.1.2.4

A decommissioning representative shall

be appointed to the Decommissioning Project Team by SDG&E to be the primary
contact for such Party on all decommissioning matters not delegated to its
fiscal

representative. One of the purposes of providing the decommissioning

representative with access to Unit 1, as provided herein, is to assist SDG&E to
keep itself informed as to significant matters affecting decommissioning. Such
representative shall have (1) access to Unit 1 at any time to the same extent as
the Decommissioning Agent; (2) the right to confer with the representative of
the
Decommissioning Agent at all reasonable times; (3) access to all files related
to
decommissioning except for (a) confidential personnel records and (b) files of
any
officer of the Decommissioning Agent; and the right to receive copies of Unit 1

correspondence to the same extent as the project team members except for
correspondence dealing with confidential personnel records; (4) the right to
receive timely notice of scheduled meetings between the Decommissioning Agent
related to decommissioning, and the right to attend such meetings; (5) a
mutually acceptable office space, file space, parking space, and furnishings at
SONGS; and (6) access to and use of such computing, duplicating, facsimile, and
telephone facilities and clerical support as are routinely provided to
representatives of the Decommissioning Agent at SONGS. For purposes of this
Section 6.1.2.4(3)(a), information that is not treated as confidential personnel

records includes names of employees, work title, work location, and listing per
pay period of hours spent on Decommissioning Work.

6.1.2.5

The decommissioning representative may

attend and participate in any decommissioning project activities, including but

not limited to, engineering, design review, request for proposal, bid
evaluation, pre-construction, construction, environmental, safety, procurement,
cost, and
scheduling.

6.2

Except as provided for in Sections 10.5 and 18.2, the

Decommissioning Agent under this Agreement shall be SCE or its assignee. The
Parties hereby appoint the Decommissioning Agent as their agent for the
purposes set forth in this Agreement, and the Decommissioning Agent shall
undertake as their agent to perform Decommissioning Work and to carry out the
duties and responsibilities as (i) set forth in this Agreement, (ii) set forth
in the.
annual Decommissioning Activities Plan, and (iii) as may be delegated to it by
the Decommissioning Executive Board pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof.

6.3

performing the functions and duties pursuant to this Agreement, then such

disagreement shall be referred to the Decommissioning Executive Board for

CPUC, and shall become finally effective, including any modifications by the
CPUC, on the date it is adopted in a CPUC decision.

7.1.1

The Decommissioning Cost Estimate is intended to be

used primarily to establish the level of funding which the Parties are required
to provide pursuant to Section 7 hereof and is not intended to create any
obligation or

commitment to perform or conduct Decommissioning Work in compliance
with such assumptions.

7.1.2

The sole remedy for resolving disputes relating to the

Decommissioning Cost Estimates shall be through the dispute resolution process
set forth in Sections 8.1.3.1 and 8.1.4 hereof, including arbitration pursuant
to Section -11 hereof.

7.2

Annually Adjusted Decommissioning Cost Estimate:

By March 1 of each year, the Decommissioning Agent shall

submit to each Party an Annually Adjusted Decommissioning Cost Estimate,

Decommissioning Work during the calendar years since that cost estimate
became effective, and adjusted for escalation and work scope changes.

7.3

Annual Decommissioning Funding Status Reports:

7.3.1

By March 1 of each year, each Party shall submit to

Estimate.

7.4

Maintenance of Trust Funds For Decommissioning Costs:

7.4.1

Costs.

7.4.2

The right of any Party pursuant to this Section 7 to

maintain a minimum of its share of the current Annually Adjusted

Decommissioning Cost Estimate in its Decommissioning Trust(s) shall not relieve
any Party from any and all obligations to pay its Decommissioning Cost Share of
Decommissioning Costs.

7.5

Underfunding:

As long as SDG&E or SCE is a Party to this Agreement,
Sections 7.5 through 7.7, inclusive, shall not apply to either SDG&E or

SCE. If either Party assigns its Ownership Share of San Onofre Unit 1

pursuant to Section 18 herein, Sections 7.5 through 7.7 shall apply to any third
party assignee of SCE or SDG&E's Ownership Share(s).

7.5.1

By March 31 of each year, the Decommissioning

Agent shall notify the Decommissioning Executive Board if either Party's

Annual Decommissioning Funding Status Report indicates that the balance in
its Decommissioning Trust Funds as of December 31 of the previous year is
less than its Decommissioning Cost Share of the current Annually Adjusted
Decommissioning Cost Estimate as defined in Section 7.2 hereof. Upon such
notification, the Decommissioning Agent's representative on the Decommissioning
Executive Board shall declare such Party to be underfunded. Such Party shall
notify the Decommissioning Executive Board of adoption of a Cure Plan within
ninety (90) days after such declaration.

7.5.2

A Cure Plan is a plan to be proposed by a Party that

has been declared to be underfunded, which commits that Party to a method of
depositing in its Decommissioning Trust Fund(s) an amount that brings the
cumulative balance in its Decommissioning Trust Fund(s) to at least its

Decommissioning Cost Share of the Annually Adjusted Decommissioning Cost

Estimate as defined in Section 7.2 hereof that is in effect at the end of the

prescribed time period, within a commercially reasonable period, and of paying
its Decommissioning Cost Share of all Decommissioning Costs during the period.

7.5.3

If the Decommissioning Executive Board, without the

vote of the underfunded Party, reasonably approves the Cure Plan proposed in
Section 7.5.2, the Cure Plan shall become binding upon that Party.

7.5.4

The Cure Plan terminates when a Party's

Decommissioning Trust Fund balance is no less than the amount described in
Section 7.5.2.

7.6

Underfunding Defaults:

If an underfunded Party fails to deposit an amount that brings

the cumulative balance of its Decommissioning Trust Fund(s) to at least its

Decommissioning Cost Share of the current Annually Adjusted

Decommissioning Cost Estimate within the time period prescribed by the Cure
Plan adopted by the Decommissioning Executive Board pursuant to Section 7.5
hereof, or fails to advance funds to the Decommissioning Agent for invoiced
Decommissioning Work within twenty-five (25) days of receipt of a statement as
provided in Section 8.3.15 herein, that Party shall thereupon be deemed to be in
default pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement without further action of the

Decommissioning Executive Board or any Party and irrespective of the pendency
of any arbitration proceeding initiated to contest any such underfunding claim.

7.7

Renegotiation:

The Parties agree to renegotiate in good faith the applicable

provisions of this Section 7 due to changed circumstances resulting from the
following events:

7.7.1

Severe, unforeseen, and uncontrollable stock/bond

market fluctuations cause a Party's actual funding balance in its respective

Decommissioning Trust Fund(s) to fall below its Ownership Share of the
Annually Adjusted Decommissioning Cost Estimate. That Party shall not be
declared underfunded as the result of such event. However, that Party shall
advise the other Party that it will cure such underfunding by adoption of a Cure
Plan or other arrangements if successfully negotiated with the other Party and
approved by the Decommissioning Executive Board. If such underfunding is not
rectified by either the adopted Cure Plan or other arrangement as approved by
the Decommissioning Executive Board, the underfunded Party shall be deemed
to be in default without further action of the Decommissioning Executive Board
or any Party and irrespective of the pendency of any arbitration proceeding
initiated to control any such underfunding claim. For the purpose of this
Section

7.7.1, such a fluctuation shall be deemed to have occurred following a negative
event in which actual stock/bond market returns are, in any calendar year, one-
and-one-half (1.5) standard deviations below the expected return using the most
recent edition of Stocks, Bonds, Bills, and Inflation (SBBI) by Ibbotson and
Associates as a source for historical returns and standard deviations. The
expected stock and bond returns extracted from SBBI shall be the arithmetic
average returns and standard deviations for the period spanning from the year

1926 to the most current year. Expected returns for,each Party shall be derived
using the expected SBBI returns from the various asset classes in accordance
with the percentage of that asset class in the investment policy adopted for
that Party's portfolio.

Shares of the costs to perform such Decommissioning Work in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement. Such payment shall not constitute a waiver of
a dispute. The resolution of any dispute involving the failure of the

EXHIBIT B

A&G PROCESS FOR THE SONGS UNIT 1 DECOMMISSIONING PROJECT

1.

The San Onofre Unit 1 decommissioning project will be charged for SCE

corporate A&G (includes A&G and incremental P&B) costs based on the normal

Corporate Accounting and Recording System (CARS) procedures for allocating such
costs to capital projects on a monthly basis. The normal CARS process involves
the
allocation of all corporate A&G costs to both O&M and Capital charges. That
portion of A&G costs chargeable to capital is a percentage approved by the CPUC.
Those A&G costs attributable to capital are then distributed on a monthly basis
to

all capital work orders on a proportional basis. Thus, the decommissioning work

order will receive only its proportional share of the total capital A&G costs of
the
company. This amount will be included monthly in the project request for funds
to SDG&E.

2.

Certain accounts within the decommissioning project accounting codes will

NOT be subject to allocation of corporate A&G. Accounts that will fall into this

category are those that will contain direct payments for NRC fees, Nuclear
Specific Insurance, and Low Level Radioactive Waste (LLRW) burial.

3.

All payroll taxes and pensions and benefits charges associated with the San
Onofre Unit 1 Decommissioning Project will be direct charged to the work order
rather than using any allocation methodology. These charges will not, therefore,
be included in the SONGS 1 Decommissioning Project A&G.

4.

Since Workmen's Compensation Insurance costs are now to be direct billed to
the appropriate work orders, NO such costs will be included in the A&G
allocation
process. The only Workmen's Compensation costs incurred by the project will be
those resulting from decommissioning activities.

EXHIBIT C

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

1.

Ownership of Proprietary Rights: The Parties' rights to inventions,

discoveries, trade secrets, patents, copyrights, and other intellectual property

enjoyment of the Decommissioning Work or accompanying information and
documentation, contractor or subcontractor shall grant to the Parties a
jointly held, non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license, as the Parties
may require for complete enjoyment of such Decommissioning Work and
accompanying information and documentation, including the rights to
reproduce, correct, repair, replace, maintain, translate, publish, use, modify,
copy or dispose of, and grant sublicenses to others with respect to the
Decommissioning Work and accompanying information and documentation.

c.

If the Decommissioning Work or accompanying information and

documentation includes the Proprietary Rights of others, contractor or

All such licenses shall be in writing and shall be irrevocable and royalty-free
to the Parties.

2.

Joint Ownership of Proprietary Rights: Both Parties shall have an equal and
non-exclusive ownership interest in any Proprietary Rights obtained from
contractors or subcontractors during the course of performing Decommissioning
Work. Both Parties shall have an equal and separate right to utilize such
Proprietary Rights, either jointly or individually, regardless of whether such
individual utilization results in competition between the Parties in subsequent

projects.

3.

No Additional Compensation: Nothing set forth in this Exhibit C shall be
deemed to require payment by the Parties to any contractor or subcontractor or
by
any Party to the other of any compensation specifically for the assignments and
assurances required hereby, other than the payment of expenses as may be
actually
incurred by the contractor or subcontractor in complying with these provisions.

C-2
