__________________________    
		
	1 
	To the extent any expense reimbursements provided for in this Director Compensation Schedule are taxable to a Director and provide for a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, the Director shall complete all steps required for reimbursement so as to facilitate payment, and any such reimbursements shall be paid to the Director on or before December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. Such reimbursements shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for other benefits, and the expenses eligible for reimbursement in one calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year. 


		
	2 
	With respect to equity-based awards approved and granted under current and prior compensation plans by prior resolutions of the EIX Board, this Director Compensation Schedule does not alter the intent of such resolutions to have the awards and subsequent transactions by the Directors occurring pursuant to the awards continue to comply with and be exempt under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated thereunder (or any successor provision thereto).

fully vested Edison International deferred stock units (“DSUs”) and/or Edison International common stock (“Common Stock”). DSUs represent the value of one share of Common Stock and will be credited to the Director’s account under the EIX Director Deferred Compensation Plan and subject to the terms of that plan.  DSUs include dividend equivalent rights that are converted to additional DSUs.  The number of DSUs or shares of Common Stock awarded to a Director in any particular instance will be calculated by dividing the applicable equity award amount to be granted on that date (expressed in dollars and determined as set forth below, the “Award Amount”) by the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as of that date, rounded up to the nearest whole share.  Fair market value for these purposes shall be determined in accordance with the Plan.  Each Award will be subject to terms and conditions approved in advance by the Board.


Initial Election Award - Upon the initial election of a Director to the Board, the Director will receive an award of DSUs with an aggregate Award Amount of $125,000, the date of grant of which shall be the date of such election.


Annual Reelection Award - Each Director reelected to the Board will receive Common Stock and/or DSUs with an aggregate Award Amount of $125,000, the date of grant of which shall be the date of such reelection.  The portion of the award to be granted in Common Stock and/or DSUs shall be specified in advance by the Director as provided in the next paragraph.


Prior to the year the Annual Reelection Award is granted, the Director may elect to receive the award entirely in shares of Common Stock, entirely in DSUs, or in any combination of each, except that if a fractional share would result, the Common Stock portion will be rounded up to the next whole share and the DSU portion will be rounded down to the next whole DSU.  If no such election is timely made by the Director for a particular year, the Director’s Annual Reelection Award (if any) for that year will be entirely Common Stock.


EIX Affiliate Boards - SCE non-employee Directors who do not serve on the EIX Board will receive Awards equal in amount to EIX non-employee Directors if the SCE Board authorizes such compensation.  Differing amounts of SCE Awards, and Awards for non‐employee directors of other EIX affiliates, may only be made with additional approval of the EIX Board.


Matching Gift Program
Directors of EIX and SCE are eligible to participate in the EIX Director Matching Gifts Program.
