The Securities shall be issued under the One Hundred Fifty-Third Supplemental Indenture to be dated as of February 28, 2023 (the "Supplemental Indenture") to a Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1923 (the "Trust Indenture" and, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the "Indenture") between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor to Harris Trust

------

and Savings Bank, and D.G. Donovan, as successor trustee to Pacific-Southwest Trust & Savings Bank, as trustees (the "Trustees"). To the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed on Schedule I other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you, as Underwriters, and the terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires. Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed under the Exchange Act on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms "amend," "amendment" or "supplement" with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 21 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.<u>Representations and Warranties.</u> The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each Underwriter as set forth below in this Section 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Act and has prepared and filed with the Commission an automatic shelf registration statement, as defined in Rule 405, on Form S-3 (file number 333-258266), including a related Base Prospectus, for registration under the Act of the offering and sale of the Securities. The Company may have filed one or more amendments thereto, including a Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, each of which has previously been furnished to you and has become effective upon filing. The Company will next file with the Commission a Final Prospectus Supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with Rule 424(b). The Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, is effective and meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)On each Effective Date, the Registration Statement did, and when the Final Prospectus Supplement is first filed in accordance with Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date (as defined herein), the Final Prospectus Supplement (and any amendment or supplement thereto) will, comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act, the Exchange Act and the Trust Indenture Act and the respective rules thereunder; on each Effective Date and at the Execution Time, the Registration Statement did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading; on each Effective Date and on the Closing Date, the Indenture did or will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Trust Indenture Act and the rules thereunder; and on the date thereof and on the Closing Date, the Final Prospectus Supplement (together with any amendment or supplement thereto) will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the

------

Company makes no representations or warranties as to (i) that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act of the Trustees or (ii) the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)As of the Initial Sale Time, the Disclosure Package, when taken together as a whole, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)(i) At the time of filing the Registration Statement, (ii) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or form of prospectus), (iii) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c)) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption in Rule 163, and (iv) at the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (iv)), the Company was or is, as the case may be, a "well-known seasoned issuer" (as defined in Rule 405). The Company agrees to pay the fees required by the Commission relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1) without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)(i) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant made a *bona fide* offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2)) of the Securities and (ii) as of the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (ii)), the Company was not and is not an Ineligible Issuer (as defined in Rule 405), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an Ineligible Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Neither any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus nor any Final Term Sheet (as defined herein) includes any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein and any prospectus supplement deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. The foregoing sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from

------

the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement, will not be an "investment company" as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n)The Indenture will constitute a legally valid first lien or charge, to the extent that it purports to be such, on substantially all of the property now owned by the Company to the extent and subject to the exceptions, defects, qualifications and other matters set forth or referred to in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement or in Section 1(k) of this Agreement, and to such other matters that do not materially affect the security for the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s)The Company and its subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization; (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences and (v) the interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement is in compliance with the Commission's published rules, regulations and guidelines applicable thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t)The Company and its subsidiaries maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" (as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), and, as of December 31, 2022, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u)TheCompany is notin violation or default of (i) any provision of its articles of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents, (ii) the terms of any indenture, contract, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement, loan agreement or other agreement, obligation, condition, covenant or instrument to which it is a party or bound or to which its property is subject or (iii) any statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over it or any of its properties, as applicable (except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such violations or defaults as would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)The Company possesses all licenses, certificates, permits and other authorizations issued by the appropriate national and local U.S. federal and state regulatory authorities necessary to conduct its business, and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would have a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w)The Company is (i) in compliance with any and all applicable national and local U.S. federal and state laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and safety, the environment or hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants ("Environmental Laws"), (ii) has received and is in compliance with all permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its business and (iii) has not received notice of any actual or potential liability for the investigation or remediation of any disposal or release of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants, except where such non-compliance with Environmental Laws, failure to have or be in compliance with required permits, licenses

------

or other approvals, or liability would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). Except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), the Company has not been named as a "potentially responsible party" under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x)In the ordinary course of its business, the Company periodically reviews the effect of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Company, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws, or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, the Company has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y)No holders of securities of the Company have rights to the registration of such securities under the Registration Statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(z)The Company owns or leases all such properties as are necessary to the conduct of its operations as presently conducted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(aa)The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities, and the Company is not aware of any such action taken or to be taken by any affiliates of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(bb)Except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), the minimum funding standard under Section 302 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder ("ERISA"), has been satisfied by each "pension plan" (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) which has been established or maintained by the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries, except where the failure to satisfy such standard would not have a Material Adverse Effect; each pension plan established or maintained by the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries, and the trust forming part of each such plan, has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be in all material respects designed in accordance with Section 401 of the Code (as defined herein), and if such pension plan has subsequently been amended, the Company believes that each such pension plan, as amended, is designed in compliance with Section 401 of the Code; each of the Company and its subsidiaries has fulfilled its

------

obligations, if any, under Section 515 of ERISA; each pension plan and welfare plan established or maintained by the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with the currently applicable provisions of ERISA, except in such cases where noncompliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has incurred or could reasonably be expected to incur any withdrawal liability under Section 4201 of ERISA, any liability under Section 4062, 4063, or 4064 of ERISA, or any other liability under Title IV of ERISA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(dd)There is and has been no failure on the part of the Company and any of the Company's directors or officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with Section 401 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated in connection therewith (the "Sarbanes Oxley Act") related to loans.

Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company and delivered to the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company, as to matters covered thereby, to each Underwriter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.<u>Purchase and Sale.</u> Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, (a) at a purchase price of 99.300% of the principal amount thereof, the principal amount of the 2023A Bonds set forth in the column labeled "Principal Amount of 2023A Bonds to be Purchased" opposite such Underwriter's name in Schedule I hereto and (b) at a purchase price of 98.655% of the principal amount thereof, the principal amount of the 2023B Bonds set forth in the column labeled "Principal Amount of 2023B Bonds to be Purchased" opposite such Underwriter's name in Schedule I hereto.

Delivery of the Securities shall be made to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters against payment by the several Underwriters through the Representatives of the purchase price thereof to or upon the order of the Company by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to an account specified by the

------

Company. Delivery of the Securities shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.<u>Offering by Underwriters.</u> It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Securities for sale to the public as set forth in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus Supplement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.<u>Agreements.</u> The Company agrees with the several Underwriters that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Prior to the termination of the offering of the Securities, the Company will not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement (including the Final Prospectus Supplement or any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) to the Base Prospectus unless the Company has furnished you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Company will cause the Final Prospectus Supplement, properly completed, and any amendment or supplement thereto to be filed in a form approved by the Representatives with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within the time period prescribed and will provide evidence satisfactory to the Representatives of such timely filing. The Company will promptly advise the Representatives (1) when the Final Prospectus Supplement, and any amendment or supplement thereto, shall have been filed (if required) with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), (2) when, prior to termination of the offering of the Securities, any amendment to the Registration Statement shall have been filed or become effective, (3) of any request by the Commission or its staff for any amendment of the Registration Statement, or for any supplement to the Final Prospectus Supplement or for any additional information, (4) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any notice objecting to its use or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (5) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the suspension of any such qualification and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal of such stop order or relief from such occurrence or objection, including, if necessary, by filing an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration statement and using its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Company will prepare a final term sheet entitled "Summary of Terms" for each series of Securities, substantially in the form of Schedule II hereto (the "Final Term Sheets") and will file the Final Term Sheets pursuant to Rule 433(d) within the time required by such Rule.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If there occurs an event or development as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include an untrue statement of a material fact or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will notify promptly the

------

Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus Supplement as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement, file a new registration statement or supplement the Final Prospectus Supplement to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, including in connection with use or delivery of the Final Prospectus Supplement, the Company promptly will (1) notify the Representatives of such event; (2) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement or new registration statement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; (3) use its best efforts to have any amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable in order to avoid any disruption in use of the Final Prospectus Supplement; and (4) supply any amended or supplemented Final Prospectus Supplement to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)As soon as practicable, the Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or statements of the Company and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Upon request, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, signed copies of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus Supplement and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto as the Representatives may reasonably request. The Company will pay the expenses of printing or other production of all documents relating to the offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)The Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate, will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities and will pay any fee of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., in connection with its review of the offering; <u>provided</u> <u>that</u> in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j)The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any decrease in the rating of any of the Company's debt securities by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" (as defined for purposes of Section 3(a)(62) under the Exchange Act) or any notice given of any intended or potential decrease in any such rating or of a possible change in any such rating that either indicates a negative change or does not indicate the direction of the possible change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.<u>Reimbursement of Underwriters' Expenses.</u> If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 11 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<u>Indemnification and Contribution.</u> (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus Supplement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the Final Term Sheets, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth in the last paragraph of the cover page of

------

the Final Prospectus Supplement regarding delivery of the Securities and, under the heading of the Final Prospectus Supplement labeled "Underwriting," (i) the list of Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Securities, (ii) the sentences related to concessions and reallowances and (iii) the paragraph related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in the Final Prospectus Supplement constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters by the Representatives for inclusion in the Final Prospectus Supplement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party's choice at the indemnifying party's expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party's election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (A) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (B) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (C) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (D) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes (i) an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding; and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,

------

damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively "Losses") to which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus Supplement. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. In no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount pursuant to this paragraph (d) in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.<u>Default by an Underwriter.</u> If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to

------

purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus Supplement or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.<u>Certain Acknowledgements by the Company.</u> The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representative nor any other Underwriter is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.<u>Termination.</u> This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities, (iii) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.<u>Representations and Indemnities to Survive.</u> The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

Failure to so provide such notice to the holder of any Bond shall not affect the validity of the redemption proceedings with respect to any other Bond.

PART V

The Bonds shall be in substantially the forms set forth in a resolution of the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, or a certificate evidencing action by an officer or officers of the Company, and may have placed thereon such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements as set forth in this Supplemental Indenture or as may be required to comply with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), any other laws, any other rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any securities exchange, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined to be necessary or appropriate by the officers executing the Bonds, as evidenced by their execution of the Bonds.

------

PART VI

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustees assume no responsibility for the correctness thereof. The Trustees make no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture.

PART VII

The Series 2023A and 2023B Bonds need not be issued at the same time and any such series may be reopened at any time, without notice to or the consent of any then-existing holder or holders of any Bond, for issuances of additional Bonds in an unlimited principal amount. Any such additional Bonds will have the same interest rate, maturity and other economic terms as those of that series initially issued, except for payment of interest accruing prior to the original issue date of such additional Bonds and, if applicable, for the first interest payment date following such original issue date.

PART VIII

The Company covenants and represents that neither they nor any of their affiliates, subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any directors or officers are the target or subject of any sanctions enforced by the US Government, (including, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Department of the Treasury ("OFAC")), the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty's Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively "Sanctions").

The Company covenants and represents that neither they nor any of their affiliates, subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any directors or officers will use any part of the proceeds received in connection with the Supplemental Indenture or any other of the transaction documents (i) to fund or facilitate any activities of or business with any person who at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject or target of Sanctions, (ii) to fund or facilitate any activities of or business with any country or territory that is the target or subject of Sanctions, or (iii) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any person.

"Electronic Signatures" means any electronic symbol or process attached to, or associated with, any contract or other record and adopted by a person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record.

------

PART X

The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions ("Instructions") given pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Company shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions ("Authorized Officers") and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Company whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee's understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Company understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Company shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Company and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Company. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee's reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Company agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Issuer; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.

"Electronic Means" shall mean the following communications methods: e-mail, facsimile transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Trustee, or another method or system specified by the Trustee as available for use in connection with its services hereunder.

PART XI

As amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture, the Amended Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Original Indenture and all said indentures supplemental thereto including this Supplemental Indenture, shall be read, taken, and considered as one instrument, and the Company agrees to conform to and comply with all and singular the terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions set forth therein and herein.

PART XII

In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture should be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture, and, to the extent and only to the extent that any such provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, this Supplemental Indenture shall be construed as if such provision had never been contained herein.

PART XIII

This Supplemental Indenture may be simultaneously executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original.

------

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its corporate name and seal to be hereunto affixed and this Supplemental Indenture to be signed by its President, or one of its Vice Presidents and attested by the signature of its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries, for and in its behalf; said The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. has caused its name to be hereunto affixed, and this Supplemental Indenture to be signed, by one of its Vice Presidents or Assistant Vice Presidents or Agents; and said D.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY, a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of California (hereinafter called the "Company"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to _____________________, the registered owner hereof, the principal sum of $750,000,000 on March 1, 2028, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof to the registered owner hereof from March 2, 2023, until said principal sum shall be paid, at the rate of 5.30% per annum, payable semiannually on March 1 and September 1 of each year (each, a "Series 2023A Payment Date"), beginning September 1, 2023. Such interest shall be paid to the person in whose name this Bond is registered at the close of business on (1) the business day immediately preceding the Series 2023A Payment Date if this Bond is in book-entry only form, or (2) the 15<sup>th</sup> calendar day before each Series 2023A Payment Date if this Bond is not in book-entry only form. The amount of interest payable for any period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, provided that the amount of interest payable for any period shorter or longer than a full interest period will be completed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and the actual number of days elapsed in the period using 30-day months.

The principal of and interest on this Bond are payable at the offices of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, in Chicago, Illinois, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.

This Bond is one of a series, designated as "Series 2023A, Due 2028," of a duly authorized issue of bonds of the Company, known as its "First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds," issued and to be issued in one or more series under and all equally and ratably secured by a Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1923, and indentures supplemental thereto, including the One Hundred Fifty-Third Supplemental Indenture, to be dated as of February 28, 2023, which have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. and D. G. Donovan, or one of their predecessors, as Trustees, to which original indenture and indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the "Trust Indenture") reference is hereby made for a description of the property, rights and franchises thereby mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security thereby created, the rights of the holders of this Bond and of the Trustees in respect of such security, and the terms, restrictions and conditions upon which the bonds are issued and secured.

Prior to February 1, 2028 ("Par Call Date"), the Company may redeem this Bond at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming this Bond matured on the

------

Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points in the case of the Series 2023A Bonds less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) 100% of the principal amount of this Bond to be redeemed,

plus, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem this Bond, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the bonds being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by us in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by us after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as "Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15" (or any successor designation or publication) ("H.15") under the caption "U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal" (or any successor caption or heading) (H.15 TCM"). In determining the Treasury Rate, we shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the applicable Par Call Date (the "Remaining Life"); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the applicable Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 TCM is no longer published, we shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the applicable Par Call Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the applicable Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the applicable Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following such Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of

------

the preceding sentence, we shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all the Series 2023A Bonds, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, will select the particular bonds to be redeemed on a *pro rata* basis, by lot or by such other method of random selection, if any, that The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, deems fair and appropriate; provided, however, that as long as this Bond is held with a depositary, any such selection shall be in accordance with such depositary's applicable procedures.

Any notice of redemption, at the Company's option, may state that the redemption will be conditional upon receipt by the paying agent, on or prior to the date fixed for the redemption, of money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Series 2023A Bonds to be redeemed and that if the money has not been so received, the notice will be of no force and effect and the Company will not be required to redeem this Bond.

The Trust Indenture makes provision for a Special Trust Fund and permits the use of moneys therein for the purpose, among others, of redeeming or purchasing this Bond.

If default shall be made in the payment of any installment of principal of or interest on this Bond or in the performance or observance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Indenture, and such default shall continue as provided in the Trust Indenture, then the principal of this Bond may be declared and become due and payable as provided in the Trust Indenture.

This Bond is transferable only on the books of the Company at any of the places designated above for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, by the registered owner or by an attorney of such owner duly authorized in writing, on surrender hereof properly endorsed, and upon such surrender hereof, and the payment of charges, a new registered bond or bonds of this series, of an equal aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee in lieu hereof, as provided in the Trust Indenture.

The terms of the Trust Indenture may be modified as set forth in the Trust Indenture; provided, however, that, among other things, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all bonds outstanding under the Trust Indenture, as at the time in effect, shall continue unimpaired, (2) no modification shall give any of said bonds any preference over any other of said bonds, and (3) no modification shall authorize the creation of any lien prior to the lien of the Trust Indenture on any of the trust property.

------

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or any part thereof, or for or on account of the consideration herefor, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the Trust Indenture, against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor company, whether for amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions, or by virtue of any statue or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or because of any representation or inference arising from the capitalization of the Company or of such predecessor or successor company, or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as a part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly released.

This Bond shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been authenticated by the execution of the certificate of authentication hereon of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, or its successor in trust.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Southern California Edison Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its name by its President or one of its Vice Presidents and its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries, as of March__, 2023, such execution and attestation to be by manual or facsimile signatures.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY, a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of California (hereinafter called the "Company"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to _____________________, the registered owner hereof, the principal sum of $450,000,000 on March 1, 2053, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof to the registered owner hereof from March 2, 2023, until said principal sum shall be paid, at the rate of 5.70% per annum, payable semiannually on March 1 and September 1 of each year (each, a "Series 2023B Payment Date"), beginning September 1, 2023. Such interest shall be paid to the person in whose name this Bond is registered at the close of business on (1) the business day immediately preceding the Series 2023B Payment Date if this Bond is in book-entry only form, or (2) the 15<sup>th</sup> calendar day before each Series 2023B Payment Date if this Bond is not in book-entry only form. The amount of interest payable for any period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, provided that the amount of interest payable for any period shorter or longer than a full interest period will be completed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and the actual number of days elapsed in the period using 30-day months.

The principal of and interest on this Bond are payable at the offices of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, in Chicago, Illinois, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.

This Bond is one of a series, designated as "Series 2023B, Due 2053," of a duly authorized issue of bonds of the Company, known as its "First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds," issued and to be issued in one or more series under and all equally and ratably secured by a Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1923, and indentures supplemental thereto, including the One Hundred Fifty-Third Supplemental Indenture, to be dated as of February 28, 2023, which have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. and D. G. Donovan, or one of their predecessors, as Trustees, to which original indenture and indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the "Trust Indenture") reference is hereby made for a description of the property, rights and franchises thereby mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security thereby created, the rights of the holders of this Bond and of the Trustees in respect of such security, and the terms, restrictions and conditions upon which the bonds are issued and secured.

Prior to September 1, 2052 ("Par Call Date"), the Company may redeem this Bond at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming this Bond matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day

------

months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points in the case of the Series 2023B Bonds less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) 100% of the principal amount of this Bond to be redeemed,

plus, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the bonds, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the bonds being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by us in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by us after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as "Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15" (or any successor designation or publication) ("H.15") under the caption "U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal" (or any successor caption or heading) ("H.15 TCM"). In determining the Treasury Rate, we shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the applicable Par Call Date (the "Remaining Life"); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the applicable Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 TCM is no longer published, we shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the applicable Par Call Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the applicable Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the applicable Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following such Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, we shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury

------

securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all the Series 2023B Bonds, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, will select the particular bonds to be redeemed on a *pro rata* basis, by lot or by such other method of random selection, if any, that The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, deems fair and appropriate; provided, however, that as long as this Bond is held with a depositary, any such selection shall be in accordance with such depositary's applicable procedures.

Any notice of redemption, at the Company's option, may state that the redemption will be conditional upon receipt by the paying agent, on or prior to the date fixed for the redemption, of money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Series 2023B Bonds to be redeemed and that if the money has not been so received, the notice will be of no force and effect and the Company will not be required to redeem this Bond.

The Trust Indenture makes provision for a Special Trust Fund and permits the use of moneys therein for the purpose, among others, of redeeming or purchasing this Bond.

If default shall be made in the payment of any installment of principal of or interest on this Bond or in the performance or observance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Indenture, and such default shall continue as provided in the Trust Indenture, then the principal of this Bond may be declared and become due and payable as provided in the Trust Indenture.

This Bond is transferable only on the books of the Company at any of the places designated above for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, by the registered owner or by an attorney of such owner duly authorized in writing, on surrender hereof properly endorsed, and upon such surrender hereof, and the payment of charges, a new registered bond or bonds of this series, of an equal aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee in lieu hereof, as provided in the Trust Indenture.

The terms of the Trust Indenture may be modified as set forth in the Trust Indenture; provided, however, that, among other things, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all bonds outstanding under the Trust Indenture, as at the time in effect, shall continue unimpaired, (2) no modification shall give any of said bonds any preference over any other of said bonds, and (3) no modification shall authorize the creation of any lien prior to the lien of the Trust Indenture on any of the trust property.

------

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or any part thereof, or for or on account of the consideration herefor, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the Trust Indenture, against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor company, whether for amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions, or by virtue of any statue or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or because of any representation or inference arising from the capitalization of the Company or of such predecessor or successor company, or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as a part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly released.

This Bond shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been authenticated by the execution of the certificate of authentication hereon of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, or its successor in trust.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Southern California Edison Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its name by its President or one of its Vice Presidents and its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries, as of March __, 2023, such execution and attestation to be by manual or facsimile signatures.

Exhibit 5.1

March 2, 2023

Southern California Edison Company

2244 Walnut Grove Avenue

Rosemead, California 91770

Re: Offering of Southern California Edison Company's

$750,000,000 5.30% First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds,

Series 2023A, Due 2028

$450,000,000 5.70% First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds,

Series 2023B, Due 2053

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am Assistant General Counsel of Southern California Edison Company, a California corporation ("SCE"). You have requested my opinion in connection with the offering, issuance, and sale by SCE of $750,000,000 5.30% First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, Series 2023A Due 2028, and $450,000,000 5.70% First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, Series 2023B, Due 2053 (collectively, the "Bonds"). The Bonds will be issued under the Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1923, executed by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee, and D. G. Donovan, as successor trustee (the "Trustee"), as amended and supplemented by supplemental indentures, including the One-Hundred Fifty-Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 28, 2023 (that Trust Indenture, as so amended and supplemented, being referred to herein as the "Indenture").

The Bonds are being offered to the public by the Prospectus Supplement dated February 27, 2023, to the Prospectus dated July 29, 2021 (together, the "Prospectus"), which is part of a Registration Statement on Form S-3, as amended (Registration No. 333-258266) (the "Registration Statement"), filed by SCE with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Bonds are being sold by the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated February 27, 2023 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), among the Company and the underwriters named therein.

In my capacity as Assistant General Counsel, I am generally familiar with the proceedings taken and proposed to be taken by SCE for the authorization and issuance of the Bonds. I, or attorneys acting under my supervision, have made legal and factual examinations and inquiries, including an examination of originals and copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the documents, corporation records and instruments of SCE

------

that we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have obtained and relied upon certificates and assurances from public officials that we have deemed necessary.

Subject to the foregoing and the other qualifications set forth herein, it is my opinion that when the Bonds have been duly established in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, duly authenticated by the Trustee, and duly executed, sold and delivered on behalf of SCE in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Indenture and as contemplated by the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the Bonds will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of SCE enforceable against SCE in accordance with the terms of the Bonds.

The opinion set forth above is subject to the following exceptions, limitations and qualifications: (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors; (ii) the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief, regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought; (iii) the validity or enforceability of any provisions contained in the Indenture that purports to waive or does not give effect to rights to notices, defenses, subrogation or other rights or benefits that cannot be effectively waived under applicable law; and (iv) the unenforceability under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the indemnification of, or contribution to, a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy.

I have assumed for purposes of this opinion that (i) the Indenture constitutes the legally valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Edison, enforceable against Edison in accordance with its terms; (ii) the Trustee for the Indenture is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (iii) the Trustee is duly qualified to engage in the activities contemplated by the Indenture; (iv) the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee and constitutes a legally valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Trustee, enforceable against the Trustee in accordance with its terms; (v) the Trustee is in compliance, generally and with respect to acting as Trustee under the Indenture, with all applicable laws and regulations; and (vi) the Trustee has the requisite organizational and legal power and authority to perform its obligations under the Indenture.

------

I consent to SCE filing this opinion with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K, which will be incorporated by reference into the Prospectus, and to the reference to me under the caption "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus. In giving this consent, I do not hereby admit that I am in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued thereunder.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Michael A. Henry
